From Azkaban

Although the news about Locke had only been out for a short time, considering the situation in the magic world, this kind of thing was not uncommon.

After all, even someone like Lockhart who just relies on writing books and bragging can gain a large number of fanatical fans and become a big star. It is not surprising that a wizard like Locke who directly breaks the era will be sought after, especially when the magic network has appeared for more than a month.

These loyal supporters of the magic network regard the magic network as one of the greatest creations ever, and such remarks are not opposed throughout the British wizarding community.

"I agree with that. I heard from my Hannah that Professor Kazir's magic science is a new and more excellent knowledge that was born from the combination of alchemy and various magical knowledge."

Tom cheerfully handed a glass of sherry to the wizard guest. He seemed to have thought of something while speaking and hesitated for a second before speaking.

"Well... maybe there's a little bit of Muggle knowledge mixed in, um... although I don't think that makes sense."

"puff!"

The customer who had just taken a sip of sherry at the bar spat out the wine in his mouth after hearing what Tom said, but fortunately he tilted his head at the last moment and did not spray Tom's face.

"How is it possible! How could such a great thing as the Magic Weave contain Muggle knowledge? It must contain the most advanced magical knowledge. How could the ignorant knowledge of Muggles be comparable to it?"

The wizard guest spoke silently as he took out his wand and cleaned himself, then cast a spell on the remaining areas that were sprayed.

"I think so, but..."

Tom wanted to say that the letter from Hannah clearly stated that magical technology did contain Muggle knowledge, but after thinking about it, Tom didn't say it.

The main thing is that he is running a business and there is no need to argue with customers about such things. Besides, he actually has the same opinion as the wizard guest.

Magic is a very profound and mysterious knowledge. How can the knowledge summarized by those stupid Muggles like trolls be compared with magic, let alone be incorporated into such a great magical invention as the magic network?

Tom thought that maybe Hannah had made a mistake, and planned to write to her later to ask.

In this way, Tom continued to chat with this guest for a while. Just when the two were talking enthusiastically about the magic network, some guests who came in from Diagon Alley brought a bombshell news.

"What! Professor Kazir is going to give a speech in five days, and he will announce a new function of the magic network in the speech! The new function was developed by Dumbledore and the Hogwarts professors together! Oh my Merlin!"

Tom was shocked when he heard the news. He dropped the cup in his hand and broke into pieces. But Tom was not in the mood to care about that at the moment. It was just a matter of a repair spell.

"Are you sure you heard it right? Professor Kazir really developed a new function for the magic network?!"

A new function. If this happened in Locke's previous life, it would definitely not be a big deal, but if it happened in the wizarding world, it would be a big deal.

After all, just look at the speed of progress of these wizards and you will understand how slow their iteration and update of technology is.

As for the magic network, almost all wizards think that the current magic network is perfect and have never thought about making it continue to improve. Even if some of them have thought about it, they think that it will definitely be a matter of one or two hundred years later.

But this time their common sense was overturned. The magic network had only been promoted for more than a month and it was about to have a new function. This was unimaginable for countless ordinary wizards.

"Note that this time it's not just Professor Cazier who's involved, Dumbledore and the professors at Hogwarts are also involved."

The wizard customer at the bar corrected Tom's words, but his face was also full of shock at this moment.

Volume 1: Chapter 138 Werewolf Troops

The news that the magic network will continue to be updated and iterated has sparked a lot of discussion throughout the British wizarding community, and even in some circles of users in other countries' wizarding communities.

After all, the world is interconnected. Even if the flow of information among wizards themselves is relatively closed, wizards from each country rarely interact with each other.

But that was the British wizarding world before. Because of the active operation of Knockturn Alley and the Round Table, there are many wizards from other countries in the British wizarding world now.

Naturally, these wizards would not miss out on something as trendy as the Magic Network. In fact, since their main activities are in Knockturn Alley, they are mostly the first batch to register for the Magic Network.

So, the current situation is that the magic network is no longer just popular in the British wizarding world, but has begun to spread outward with these foreign wizards.

However, the magic circles of many countries do not have the magic network yet. Even if there is a magic network, Locke has temporarily closed the magic network of the corresponding country to the outside world and only allows members of the Round Table Council to use it.

After all, the Magic Network has not yet openly started operations in the magic circles of other countries, so the Magic Network in the magic circles of other countries cannot be exposed.

Diagon Alley, Ollivander's Wand Shop. Ollivander, who had just sent a customer away, returned to the shop, passed through a small door and entered a spacious room.

Obviously, this was a room that had been cast with the Traceless Extension Charm. Ollivander would never do such a thing in the past because he was worried that the Ministry of Magic would come to investigate.

But it’s different now. Ollivander no longer worries about the Ministry of Magic. After all, he has the support of the Round Table and is a wizard with a backer.

"Mr. Kazir has upgraded the magic net so quickly. This speed is worthy of him."

Ollivander skillfully walked through the large amount of unfinished manuscripts and discarded materials from failed experiments scattered on the ground, while muttering to himself the news he had just heard from the customer.

Ollivander might be the last wizard to receive the news, because he had been staying in this room before to develop new wands, and he basically would not leave except when there were guests or when he had meals.

"I have to speed up as well. Mr. Kazir trusted me so much and entrusted me with such an important task. I can't let him down."

As for the development of the new wand, after Locke gave Ollivander the initial knowledge of magic patterns, corresponding concepts, and some knowledge of passive magic, he gave him full authority.

After all, the development of a new magic wand is not an easy task. If you want to use magic patterns to completely replace or even make the effects of existing magic wands stronger, it requires a lot of time and energy to study, and even more professional knowledge and experience.

That's why Locke chose to leave the matter entirely to Ollivander and not interfere in the follow-up at all.

Because only a wand-making master like him can undertake this kind of research, and only someone as obsessed as him can maintain absolute enthusiasm and energy after repeated failures.

"By the way, the information about the African magic patterns that I asked Lucius to find has been delivered. Let me see how the African magic patterns can replace the magic wand to cast spells."

Ollivander began to work day and night again, constantly reading books and trying again and again.

........................

In a sparsely populated valley in western Wales, England, there is a brand new village that looks like it has just been built. This village, which has no name yet, is the Werewolf Village built by the Round Table Council for werewolves.

Because it was daytime, many werewolves went to Knockturn Alley to work, so there were not many werewolves in the village.

In the center of the village is a tall tower. The style of the tower is the same as the tower in the center of Knockturn Alley, almost a mini replica.

Obviously, this is the symbol of the Round Table Council, and it also represents that all the werewolves here belong to the Round Table Council.

At this time in the tower, Lupin, the leaders of the werewolf village, and Sirius were discussing a serious topic.

"Then these are confirmed as the first group of members."

Lupin stood in front of a wooden table and reached out to pick up a piece of paper with ten names written on it.

"Okay, I have no objection, but there are only ten members in the first batch, and I don't know if the adults will be satisfied."

Looking at the list in Lupin's hand, Sirius was a little worried. After all, there were nearly 500 people in the werewolf village now, but only ten qualified members were selected in the first batch.

Such efficiency was indeed a bit low in Sirius's opinion. Judging from his own experience, Sirius couldn't help but worry that Locke would be dissatisfied.

"I am a little worried, but there is nothing we can do about it. The special situation of the werewolf group and the powerful strength of the perfect werewolf do not allow us to be careless."

A look of worry also flashed across Lupin's face, but it was quickly replaced by a determined look.

"I think that rather than relaxing the standards to please the adults and causing possible problems in the future, what we should do now is to maintain the standards and conduct strict screening to ensure that it will not affect the adults' careers in the future."

Hearing Lupin's words, Sirius nodded and said, "You are right. Compared to being scolded by adults for being too inefficient, affecting adults' careers is the real big problem."

"Then let's get started. We will try to turn all the first batch of members into complete werewolves today, so that we can report to the adults as soon as possible."

The fully-formed werewolves were very powerful, so for the sake of safety, the two of them prepared to attack them one by one. This way, even if they were really wrong, Lupin and Sirius would be fully confident that they could suppress and take down a single werewolf.

While the two were busy, the news of Diagon Alley also spread to this remote werewolf village and reached the ears of the two busy people.

"It seems that there is no need to worry now. The magic network is so popular and recognized among wizards. The adults must be in a good mood."

A smile appeared on Lupin's face. He felt very happy in his heart that the magic network could make progress.

“I don’t know how many people will attend the press conference five days later.”

Sirius's focus was different. Thinking that the launch of new functions would be held online through the magic network, he couldn't help but begin to imagine the scene of huge crowds of people at that time.

"We have reached a new level in our career, Sirius."

Looking at Laris who was completing the ritual in front of him and gradually transforming into a complete werewolf, Lupin raised the corners of his mouth, and at the same time his body began to rapidly change into that of a werewolf.

"Boom!"

With a dull thud, Lupin's fist, which was only 40% strong, was barely caught by Larris's hand, which he raised subconsciously after his body sensed the danger. The moment the fists and palms collided, a violent gust of wind gushed out from between the two men, and Larris was knocked back nearly ten meters.

"How about Laris? Do you feel the power and new future given by Lord Kazir?"

This is a necessary process. These latecomers must know Lupin's strength. After all, the impact of the powerful strength of the complete werewolf will temporarily make the transformer feel that he is invincible. This feeling can easily make people swell and do some irrational behaviors.

Volume 1: Chapter 139: Australian Egg White Eyes

The completion ceremony of the ten werewolves went smoothly. As the first complete werewolf, Lupin's strength was not comparable to those newly born complete werewolves.

After all, Lupin's own strength is not bad, and the time for completion is longer. At the same time, he also has the amplification of "rapid healing" and the first-level magic pattern. With these factors, it is a piece of cake for him to defeat these complete werewolves that have just completed completion.

"Take them over. I'll go online to contact the adults to report this. Oh, and remember to have them get ready. Once the adults are free from restrictions, they can go online to meet with them."

Looking at the ten people in front of him who looked uncomfortable because they were forced to face the reality before they had time to swell up, Sirius turned to Lupin with a smile on his face and said.

"Okay," Lupin nodded, with a smile on his face, and one could even feel that he looked a little refreshed.

In fact, after being severely taught a lesson by Locke when he first transformed into a werewolf, Lupin had been wondering when he would be able to teach others the same lesson.

After all, the reason why Lupin was so familiar with it the first time was entirely because those were his own personal feelings and thoughts.

Even he couldn't suppress the expansive feeling of suddenly gaining infinite power, let alone these werewolves who were worse than him.

At that time, his arrogance was ruthlessly shattered by Locke. In that battle, Lupin also deeply realized Locke's power, that kind of unfathomable power, and the terrifying power that could play him in the palm of his hand without even holding a wand.

“All of you follow me”

Refreshed, Lupin left with ten newly born complete werewolves, and Sirius also activated the ring on his hand to connect to the magic web.

Although these core members now have their own accounts, everyone still uses rings to log into the magic network.

The ring is a symbol of their identity and also Locke's recognition of them. Using the ring to log into the magic network is also their exclusive right.

"......"

After a feeling of being detached from his consciousness, Sirius appeared in the exclusive space of the Round Table Council deep in the magic network. As soon as he came in, he found that there were several other people in the space.

"What are you three doing?"

Looking at Lucius, Arthur and Rodolphus who were discussing together, Sirius spoke out curiously.

"It's Sirius."

The three people who were discussing turned around when they heard the voice, and when they saw that the person coming was Sirius, the smile on Lucius' face became even brighter.

"Well, you remember that I got the magic of the magical beast Animagus from the adults before."

The smile on Lucius' face at this moment was like that of a fisherman who had caught a big fish and stayed away from home for three days. It was obvious that Lucius' plan to transform into a dragon was successful. Sirius looked at Lucius' smile and instantly got the answer.

"You succeeded? What did you turn into? I remember you always wanted to turn into a dragon, so you said it was a dragon?"

Sirius's sharpness made Lucius stutter for a moment, but he adjusted himself immediately, raised his head, and nodded slightly with a smug look on his face.

"Yes, after a period of repeated selection and searching, I finally chose the Australian Eggshell Eye. Although I originally wanted to find some powerful and extinct fire dragons, I later found that the Australian Eggshell Eye's elegant appearance was the best match for my identity."

After saying so much, isn't it just that after choosing and choosing, it was finally found that the Australian white eyes were the best looking? After listening to Lucius's explanation, Sirius quickly sorted out the key information, narrowing his eyes in speechlessness.

"Then congratulations, you have obtained the powerful transformation you wanted."

As he spoke, Sirius looked at Arthur and Rodolphus again and found that their expressions were obviously a little helpless. It was obvious that Lucius was just showing off to them.

"Thank you. What about you, Sirius? Have you decided on that transformation? Considering your relationship with Lupin and the werewolf village you are in charge of, you should choose the werewolf transformation."

After successfully showing off, Lucius opened the conversation with a satisfied smile on his face.

"I haven't thought about it yet, but I do prefer to transform into a werewolf. By the way, Arthur, Rodolphus, what about you two? Have you decided what to choose?"

Sirius shook his head and answered Lucius with some hesitation. While speaking, he looked at the two people next to him, raised his eyebrows, and turned the topic to them.

Because the flow of time in the magic network space is slower than outside, it takes time for Locke to receive the information just sent and connect to the network, so Sirius didn't mind chatting with Lucius and the others.

"I'm not going to choose yet. I'm in a critical period of development here, and I don't have that much time to perform the transformation ritual of the Fantastic Beasts version of Animagus. As for werewolves..."

Speaking of werewolves, Rodolphus shook his head with a slight resistance. His meaning was very clear. He was a noble pure-blood, so how could he let a werewolf taint his bloodline?

It is obvious that even if they join Locke's team, some ideas that are deeply rooted in the magical world will not be changed, but this is also the characteristic of wizards.

"My situation is similar to Rodolphus'. I have just established a team in the Ministry of Magic with the help of Lucius and others. Now I am busy every day trying to expand the team secretly and find suitable new people. I basically don't have much time."

Arthur shook his head helplessly. In fact, he really wanted to experience it. He could experience both the transformation of magical creatures and werewolves. However, there were too many things to do and he had no choice.

"I see. It seems everyone is busy with their own things."

Sirius nodded in understanding, then he looked at Lucius and spoke with admiration.

"Lucius, I remember that you are not only in charge of Knockturn Alley and the Magic Network, but you also seem to be dealing with the Muggle world and other things. You can complete the ritual of transforming magical creatures even though you have so many things to do. You are really amazing. No wonder adults like to give you important things to do."

Hearing Sirius' words, the smile on Lucius' face froze. He didn't expect that he would get Sirius' admiration in this regard. He obviously wanted Sirius to appreciate his transformation.

"It's OK. I just do what I should do and mainly follow the guidance of adults."

Lucius replied dryly, smacking his lips. Just as he was about to change the subject back to his dragon transformation, he heard Sirius speak.

"Okay, that's enough chit-chat."

When Sirius received Locke's reply, his expression immediately became serious. The moment he finished speaking, Locke appeared in the space.
