Hogwarts time travel

Chapter 411 Cheap Labor

"Clang!" There was a crisp crash on the roof of the car, as if something had hit it.

"It's almost there." Lily looked at her watch, "Being able to interact with the material world proves that we have arrived near the stronghold."

Hermione looked out the window, the scenery outside had stabilized and would not change.

As far as the eye can see, the train is driving on a barren gray land, the black background of the sky is dotted with countless stars, and many meteorites are falling from the sky, hitting the ground far away, setting off waves of waves. Shock wave, in a trance, Hermione felt as if she was on the battlefield.

The impact sound on the roof just now was actually the sound of a meteorite hitting it?

"It's shocking, isn't it? The scene here is simulated on the moon. Those falling from the sky are meteorites in the universe. There are sages here to protect them. Few meteorites can touch here. Even if they hit the train, the damage will be unlimited. shrinking."

Hermione hesitated to speak, why not find a safe place to establish a stronghold?

Lily seemed to have guessed what Hermione was thinking, and couldn't help shaking her head.

"Do you think the sage doesn't want to find a better place? This place is already very good. At least there is air, water, and soil that can be planted for human beings. We can be self-sufficient here. The biggest threat is There are never-ending meteorites in the sky, but with the protection of sages, meteorites are nothing at all."

"Some places look harmonious, but the dangers contained in them can subvert the entire human civilization in an instant."

"Have all humans gone into the Underworld?" Hermione asked.

"Yes, everyone." Lily nodded affirmatively.

The speed of the train gradually slowed down, and the scenery outside also began to stop.

"Let's go down."

Lily walked in front, and Hermione followed behind. At this time, all the cars on the train opened one after another, and people with confused faces came out one after another.

"They were all rescued by us from the other world. This is the responsibility of the train." Lily explained.

The train stops in the middle of the wilderness, and the surroundings are endless. There is no edge to see, and the crowd is a little commotion. Where is the agreed stronghold?

"Everyone be quiet, the stronghold is not on the surface, please follow me."

Lily stood up to maintain order, and led a group of confused people towards the distance.

Passing through a water-like barrier, the wilderness in front of me disappeared without a trace, replaced by a huge concave pit.

This deep crater is like the product of a meteorite impact. In the middle of the crater, there is an old and simple door standing alone.

The door is hung with a veil-like cloth, so that people can't see the scenery behind the door.

"This... Isn't this the door of the Death Hall of the Ministry of Magic?" A person in the crowd said with a strange expression.

Lily looked back at the crowd and shook her head slightly.

"It seems that someone knows that door, but it's just a bit like it. Didn't everyone find that the size is wrong?"

Indeed, this door was quite huge, wide enough for three people to walk side by side, no matter how you looked at it, it was not the side of the Hall of Death.

When they got closer, Lily walked into it immediately, and disappeared without a trace as if melting. The crowd behind still hesitated, but then a loud crash attracted everyone's attention.

It turned out that not far away, a meteorite slammed into the ground. Although it didn't hit anyone, the huge shock wave caused people to sway left and right, almost unable to stand still.

"Everyone, let's go in first." Someone in the crowd murmured to himself, everyone woke up like a dream, and hurried into the door one after another.

Hermione waited at the end, squinting her eyes at the newly hit crater in the distance, and was about to walk to have a look, but was stopped by Lily who came out of the door.

"I'll look at it when I have time, it's dangerous outside, come in first."

Hermione looked back at the crater, nodded, and followed Lily into the door.

After walking in, it suddenly became clear that a group of people stood in the center of a huge square, surrounded by crowds of people, the ceiling was in the shape of a circular dome, and through the glass dome, you could see the scene of meteorites flying and crashing into the sky and destroying the earth.

"Welcome everyone to the base. Someone will take you to the dormitory in a short while, and soon someone will introduce the situation and assign work to you, so that everyone can live here smoothly."

"Assign work? Do we still have to work?" A dissatisfied voice suddenly appeared in the crowd.

"That's right, I have achieved financial freedom before, why do I still have to work here?" Another voice in the crowd said.

Lily's complexion was a bit ugly, but she still explained patiently: "Everything you experienced before is just an illusion. Only here, what you see is real and free."

"Freedom means working? I'd rather not be free." A voice dissatisfied.

Lily's face became even uglier. She waved her hand, and a group of staff came up and took them away, leaving only Hermione and Lily.

"What's going on?" Hermione looked at the crowd being dragged away, and looked at the girl strangely.

"It doesn't make sense for some people to reason with them. Only when they realize the real situation will they accept the status quo." Lily said with a dark face, "I'll take you to the dormitory."

Lily led Hermione into the tunnel at the edge of the square, found one of the countless doors, and stopped.

This is Hermione's dormitory. After opening it, the inside is very simple, with only a bed and a partition embedded in the wall - this is the desk.

The room was too cramped to fit anything else. Hermione looked at Lily strangely, and Lily also looked a little embarrassed.

"The space in the stronghold is very precious, and there is very little space for living, but it doesn't matter, the sage has found a new settlement, and the space for accommodation will be much wider by then."

Lily turned to leave, and Hermione sat on the cot, thoughtful.

……

"Sage, the latest batch of people has been brought here."

"Well, thanks for your hard work Lily, send them to work."

"Okay, Sage..."

"what happened?"

"I don't understand. Does such work have any significance for us to save human civilization?"

"Yes, don't waver, Lily."

"I understand."

……

"Is this what you call a job?"

Hermione looked at everything in front of her, and asked the staff behind her dumbfounded.

"That's right." The staff member said, "It is a very important part of the base to generate electricity by bicycles and provide electricity for the entire base."

That's right, the rows in front of you are all fixed bicycles, and cables extend from the back, leading to the inside of the wall.

"What saves human civilization, is it digging out cheap labor?"
