Connor's Hogwarts

Chapter 535 Answers
"My...choice?"

Am I a wizard or a human?When he heard this question, Connor realized that this Slytherin was different from the other two founders.

Gryffindor's test of Connor only valued Connor's "heart". In fact, he didn't care much about Connor's strength. What he wanted to test at the beginning was whether Connor had a "heart" that would protect his companions , Rather than saying that he values ​​​​"the courage to fight against the enemy", it is better to say "the courage to protect others".

Ravenclaw is even simpler, she doesn't care what your personality is, as long as you are capable, know enough, and have a good brain, she will approve of you.

But Slytherin was different, and Connor hadn't expected that this old man, who had a bad reputation no matter it was a thousand years ago or now, had such a pure starting point—【I just don't believe in Muggles】.

To be honest, Connor agrees with this gentleman's point of view very much. As the saying goes, non-human races must have different hearts, and wizards and ordinary humans whose fundamental contradictions cannot be reconciled must not be able to coexist peacefully forever.

The reason why wizards can still maintain this detached status is that the "enemies" don't know enough about wizards. Once there is a complete control, wizards who are at an absolute disadvantage in numbers will definitely not be able to fight against Muggles. , It is not impossible to set off another "witch hunt".

However, all of this is based on the fundamental contradiction "cannot be reconciled". If this fundamental problem is solved, many things will be different.

"So, what's your answer?" Slytherin looked at Connor with piercing eyes, and Connor even saw the expectation from the dark green flames in his eyes.

"My answer?" Connor smiled lightly and shrugged, "Before answering this question, I want to discuss another question with you."

"what?"

"Even without us wizards intervening, the war between Muggles is still happening every moment. Even without magic, the war is never far away. What do you think?"

"Oh, the so-called war is nothing more than a conflict of interests in the final analysis. There has never been any right or wrong. Arrogance and greed are the original sins of mankind. Not to mention Muggles, how have wars among wizards been absent? The three divisions of the Holy See are The result of the war between wizards, war is the eternal theme of mankind, as long as there are conflicts of interest in this world, war will never disappear."

"It can be said that before this, all Muggle-Muggle wars, wizard-wizard wars were all about competing for the resources they needed, and there were basically no resource conflicts between wizards and Muggles. Yes, wizards can be self-sufficient without humans, and the absence of wizards among humans will not affect their recuperation."

"But I also said that there must be a war between wizards and Muggles, but in this war, what we are fighting for is not the resources we each need, but the right to survive! Just as a kingdom cannot have two kings, we wizards A war with Muggles is different from an ordinary war after all, this is a war in which the entire race may perish once it is defeated!"

Slytherin sighed: "So, I must get an answer from you. For a talented wizard like you, if you are lucky enough to vacillate and lean towards Muggles, and once you make a wrong decision, it will be for all wizards. It's all a disaster, I can't teach my knowledge to someone who doesn't agree with me as a wizard, do you understand?"

This is almost an open-book exam. Slytherin is obviously very optimistic about Connor, but he has seen through Connor's soul and knows that he was a Muggle in his "last life", so he is worried that Connor will betray his identity as a wizard.

But as long as Connor admits from the bottom of his heart that he is a wizard, then Slytherin doesn't mind giving Connor what he has learned all his life. He believes that Connor, a genius on the side of wizards, will lead wizards out of a A future of more possibilities.

Rather than saying that this is a test, it is better to say that this is a transaction. As long as Connor nods, he can get a rich inheritance. He seems to have no reason to say no.

"wrong."

Seeing Connor shaking his head, Slytherin's eyes became deeper and deeper: "Oh? Don't you agree with me?"

Connor curled his lips and smiled: "Yes, and no, in fact, you are partly right. War is the eternal theme of human beings. As long as there are conflicts of interest among human beings, war will never disappear."

"However, I don't agree with your point of view [there must be a battle between wizards and Muggles]."

The fire in Slytherin's eyes dimmed visibly: "Aren't you even willing to side with your own blood? Connor, your innocence will lead all wizards to their graves!"

"Listen to me first," Connor shrugged and smiled: "Although I can answer you, I am indeed more inclined to admit my [human] identity, but I still hope you can listen to my point of view."

"." Slytherin said with a calm face, "tell me."

"There are no permanent friends or permanent enemies in this world, but only permanent interests. I don't think we need to argue about this point?"

Slytherin nodded, but didn't speak, looking a little bit downhearted.

"Then based on this premise, I think if we can turn the Muggle enemy into a friend, the so-called war is naturally not inevitable."

"Oh, what a naive idea, I said that the fundamental conflict between wizards and Muggles is not a conflict of interests at all! It is impossible for Muggles who cannot use magic to allow wizards like us, whose individual strength is far superior to theirs, to exist without control With your naive idea, wizards can only have two futures, either become the sharp blade of the Muggle rulers, become their dogs, and gain a foothold by selling our power! Or be completely wiped out, Wizards will disappear from the Muggle world, hunted, killed, and reduced to consumables in laboratories!"

"Do you want your descendants to accept this fate!?"

The more Slytherin talked, the more angry he was, the wind of magic power spread out from his stone statue, as if he wanted to wake Connor up in this way.

But Connor was unmoved, he waved his hands and smiled: "Don't get excited, sir, I won't let the future you envision happen anyway, I'm not that naive, and"

".I think that's how we wizards treated Muggles thousands of years ago. You see, haven't others lived well up to now?"

"." Slytherin's "conjecture" is naturally not an unreasonable association. It is actually difficult for human imagination to surpass the limitations of reality. The reason why Slytherin thinks that future wizards will be treated in this way is only because they I know that's how wizards treated Muggles in the past.

Use magic to enslave powerless Muggles, and use Muggle bodies to do various magical experiments. In fact, the history of wizards is not glamorous at all, and they are not qualified to put themselves in the position of victims. The darkness and ugliness of human beings are generally useless Two, don't laugh at anyone.

"In the same way, even if wizards in the future are treated like this, then we won't really be genocide. There will always be children of ordinary people who will awaken the power of wizards and may become Spider-Man, Wolverine, X The living environment of the policemen and the like will be relatively harsh, but it’s really impossible for wizards and Muggles to fight to the death.”

"."

"There is a saying in the Far East [the root is born from the same root, why is it too urgent to fry each other], which means that both the root and the root are eggs laid by the same hen. It is the same whether you fry me first or fry me first. , anyway, everyone is finished in the end."

".?"

"In short, I don't think it is necessary to draw a clear line between wizards and Muggles. In other words, the connection between wizards and Muggles has actually become a little bit apart over the past few hundred years. There is almost no communication between us. This phenomenon is actually bad, and there will be no progress without communication, which is very detrimental to both parties, and it is a waste of resources for human beings! This is not the right path!"

"I understand a bit. When you talk about wizards, you call yourself [we], but you also say that your position is [human beings]. Therefore, you think that wizards and Muggles are actually members of human beings. What position do you choose? Not a Muggle, but yourself as a [human]?"

"That's right!" Connor snapped his fingers: "I never deny my identity as a wizard, and what I do in the future will not harm my interests as a wizard, but I think our vision should be raised a little higher. , Muggles were never supposed to be our enemies, they were just [wizards] who couldn't use magic, we, are all human beings."

"Hehe, you have a good idea, but this cannot deny the fact that you are naive. Don't you think that other people will have your naive idea? How can a Muggle without power recognize your identity as a [human being]?" ? Why would a wizard with power be willing to sit on an equal footing with a group of [imbecile children]? I need a reason, a reason that can convince me."

"Of course, I have two things to convince you. One is the Philosopher's Stone created by Mr. Nicolas."

".The other is a blueprint. I call this machine—"

"[Magic Generator]."
