Hogwarts: Wizards of Eternity.

Chapter 71 Heading to the Pacific

In terms of distance, it is only about two to three thousand kilometers from Taiwan to XJ.

The distance from the UK to the Pacific Ocean is about 1 to 2 kilometers.

Even with Dumbledore's ability, it would take more than a moment to get there.

Apparition magic allows for instant movement, but it is not without limitations.

First, the longer the distance moved, the higher the risk. If the distance exceeds the wizard's ability, it will cause the body to be split and cut into pieces by space.

Even someone as powerful as Voldemort cannot use transnational Apparition.

Second, the trick to using Apparition is to have a goal, determination, and calmness. The destination of Apparition must be a place that the caster is very familiar with. It will not work if the caster has only seen a photo of it or simply passed by it once without remembering the original terrain.

Apparently, there were no marking points on the Pacific Ocean that impressed the British wizard Dumbledore particularly well, and even if there were, he couldn't get there.

So after hearing Roger's request, he thought for a moment and asked, "Can't we go somewhere else?"

"Any other place will do, as long as there are no people within a thousand kilometers."

1000 kilometers... Dumbledore remembered there were several no-man's lands, but the no-man's lands were not completely deserted, there were still some observers from government departments.

After much deliberation, Dumbledore decided to follow Roger's original request.

Actually, if you want to go to the Pacific Ocean, there is a short-term way.

Floo Network.

It is a more convenient way to move through space, more stable and less consuming than Apparition. Even children can use the Floo Network to travel across countries.

But there are two problems.

The Floo Network is under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Magic. It is fine for normal domestic use, but if you use it across borders, you need the approval of the Ministry of Magic.

Of course, you can also choose to violate the rules, but that will involve some legal risks.

Dumbledore is a man who is willing to abide by order and would not violate the rules at a time like this.

Moreover, the international Muggle community is currently experiencing tremendous turmoil. Given Dumbledore's status and strength, if he wants to go abroad, he must inform the government in order to avoid causing unnecessary misunderstandings.

There is no need to worry about the approval issue. Fudge has only been the Minister of Magic for about a year and has not yet established a firm foothold. He needs to ask Dumbledore for help in everything. It is the honeymoon period for both parties. There is no doubt that all of Dumbledore's requests will be green-lighted.

Looking across the fireplace at the strange country in front of him, Roger's first reaction was that the Floo Network was much more comfortable than Apparition.

Roger and Dumbledore were now in a small island country near Australia in the Pacific Ocean. Because they had already informed each other in advance and they were just passing through, there was no welcoming ceremony for Dumbledore's visit. Only two external leaders from the local wizard organization greeted Dumbledore.

Speaking of the wizarding organizations here, they are a little different from the British Ministry of Magic and other major countries. The UK has a population of more than 5000 million, but only has a few wizards. The population of these small Pacific countries is too small, so they do not have a Ministry of Magic in each country, but instead jointly formed a Pacific Wizarding Alliance.

…But all these countries combined are not even one-tenth as powerful as the British Ministry of Magic.

Although magic is idealistic, it also requires foundation. Without the spells developed by our ancestors and the large amount of magic theories, the wizards in those remote small countries can only move forward in a blind manner.

"Roger."

The sky and the ocean were the same color. The midday sun was a little scorching. Occasionally, some clouds passed by, echoing the surging waves, making everything around them not so lonely. The two people, who had no sailing experience, sailed towards the depths of the ocean in the small boat they bought.

The two of them didn't need any sailing experience. One could Apparate, and the other could survive without food or water. No matter what kind of shipwreck happened, it would not have any impact on Roger and the others.

"Huh? What's wrong?" Roger, who was steering the ship according to the driver's operating manual he got from the locals before going out to sea, glanced at Dumbledore behind him.

Although it is more convenient to use magic to sail the boat, he wanted to try something he had never experienced before.

"Nothing, just a question I've always been curious about." It would still take some time to sail to the destination, and since he was free anyway, Dumbledore suddenly wanted to talk to Roger about something.

Looking at the calm and smiling little wizard in front of him, Dumbledore couldn't help but recall their first meeting.

In the Supreme Court, the young child said in a serious tone: "I want to save myself, I want to save those who believe in me, I want to fulfill my promise and keep everyone alive, I have no regrets, even if you find me guilty, give me a chance to turn back time and let me go back to that battlefield, I will still choose to fight."

"Roger, you are one of the bravest people I have ever met in facing death. Why are you so obsessed with immortality and so... anxious?" This is actually a question that Dumbledore has never quite understood.

It's not surprising that many wizards seek a long life, but that's not what Roger seeks.

From the research Roger had shared with him, Dumbledore could see that what Roger wanted was not eternal life, infinite life, but absolute immortality. There was a world of difference between the two.

The theory of three dimensions starts with magic, but does not stop at magic.

If this system is advanced to the extreme, then everything will be mine, omniscient and omnipotent. Not to mention the disappearance of a little magic power, the extinction of the universe, the collapse of time and space, the obliteration of cause and effect, even more terrifying things, I am afraid they cannot hurt Him in the slightest.

Regardless of whether this theory can support Roger to go that far, at least in the opening concept, it is moving in that direction. Normally speaking, even if it is the pursuit of immortality, there is no need to make it so exaggerated.

In addition, with the talent Roger has shown now and his prophetic ability, he could have done many things slowly. Why is Roger always so anxious at every step and constantly taking risks, as if there is some indescribable existence chasing him from behind!
Hearing Dumbledore's question, Roger couldn't help but laugh, and then said, "Principal Dumbledore, you are not the first person to ask me this question."

A few months ago, when I asked Professor McGonagall for the Traceless Extension Charm, she asked a similar question.

At that time, Roger and McGonagall talked about some complicated international situations, the tense relationship between Muggles and wizards, the unknown threat theory such as the Dark Forest Theory of the Universe, and tried to evade the issue.

The strength of my current strength is completely different from what it was then, and I have shown Dumbledore more things, so the exact same rhetoric should not be applicable anymore.

Roger had to think of a new way of saying it.

be honest?

This is the only question that Roger cannot tell the truth about, because it involves one of Roger's deepest secrets!
