You call this the mastermind?

The week from the end of July to the beginning of August in the new calendar year 1864 was a special period of time in the Blackthorn United Kingdom.

In these few days, a newspaper first broke the news that the half-blood wizard Egg Wilson, who had caused a lot of trouble some time ago, had mysteriously disappeared and was suspected to have been targeted by some conspirators and had died.

Then, Kevin Felix, an outstanding young wizard who had worked with Egg Wilson, criticized some domestic terrorists through a newspaper, saying that they were deliberately destroying the peaceful status quo in the wizarding world.

He also claimed that these people would inevitably suffer retribution for attacking friends of the Felix family.

If nothing unexpected happens, the Felix family will take action in the future to strike certain suspected gangs with thundering means to restore the prestige caused by the death of "Friends of Kevin".

However, when some newspapers under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Magic suddenly published a large number of speculations and evidence that Egg was suspected to be targeted by some extreme pure bloods.

This matter has changed from a "terrorist" issue to a problem of the situation of half-blood wizards.

Thus, a vigorous campaign of verbal criticism was born under such circumstances.

And it became more and more intense.

In the United Kingdom, all newspapers in the wizarding world have reported on this incident to some extent.

Even in some neighboring countries, many people have discussed this.

This is mainly because the heat of the "Kevin" incident some time ago has not completely dissipated.

And Mellen has just given himself a politically correct buff, and even the Minister of Magic came out to support him.

Therefore, his sudden disappearance is very discussed and representative in the context of discrimination against half-blood wizards.

Under the guidance of people with ulterior motives, half-blood wizards are generally indignant about this, believing that this must be another bad act of extreme pure bloods to erase outstanding half-bloods.

Unfortunately, although they are all very angry, there will be continued heat for discussion only when there is controversy.

Among the innocent extreme pure blood group, no one has come forward to admit this.

After all, this matter not only involves the Felix family, but also the shadow of the Minister of Magic.

Anyone who stands up to "claim the credit" will certainly receive praise from extreme factions.

But no one can bear being "killed as a warning" by Felix and the Ministry of Magic afterwards.

Even if they can bear it, it is a loss-making thing.

So although the public opinion atmosphere is one-sided, anyone with a discerning eye can see that under the general silence of the extreme pure-blood group, the heat of this matter will dissipate in a few days.

However, before this happens, new changes have appeared.

A photo of Egg Wilson was suddenly published in the Wizard Education Newspaper affiliated with the Education Committee!

The photo taken by the wizard is black and white and dynamic. The black-haired boy in the photo is wearing a simple white nightgown, shaking hands with a middle-aged bald man with a weak smile on his face and posing for the photo.

This is actually the product of "cannot refuse the kindness" when Mellen pretended to be sick and refused the interview before, and he didn't spend any effort to treat it.

However, the appearance of this photo has once again detonated the current public opinion in the United Kingdom!

Adult wizards were talking about Egger, young wizards were talking about Egger, and children aged seven or eight and the elderly were also talking about Egger.

Many people were even more heartbroken and cursed about his "disappearance", and most of them were witches.

This was a very exaggerated thing. Normally, even if Mellen was so handsome, it would not have such an effect.

Not to mention his weak appearance, which was very damaging to his image.

However, the more eye-catching the public image is, the better. Some people are beautiful, but the public is not interested in them.

On the contrary, some people who are not so eye-catching will have a lot of passers-by.

Excluding natural factors, this actually involves some technical issues.

Although Mellen didn't care much about this photo, his indifference was different from that of normal people.

Some things have been engraved in his bones and can be done by instinct.

For example, through some facial expressions and body movements, let others feel close to him.

It can be said that a simple photo has a very similar effect to his previous interview, and it is more intuitive and more appealing.

So Mellen became completely "popular" and became a household name in the United Kingdom wizarding world.

This is certainly not just because of the photo.

The series of discussions triggered by his disappearance were already very hot, and people have long been curious about what he looks like.

Behind the scenes of this matter, there is even the giant Ministry of Magic fueling the flames.

The article that Mellen was interviewed about before is very suitable for shaping his personal image.

With this photo, it is easy to make people feel that the missing person is not a stranger, but a living, friendly, and living boy next door who lives around them.

This is very critical.

Because whether it is related to people's lives is one of the main factors affecting how hot the news can be.

In modern society, the enthusiasm for discussing a vicious incident in a strange city is completely different from that in the next city. The emotional effects caused by a company boss who dies suddenly at work and an ordinary employee who dies suddenly at work are completely different.

So it is very rare that for the first time, the wizarding world of the United Kingdom has formed a trend of "half-blood wizards are also wizards".

No matter which side people stand on privately, when they are asked about their attitude towards this matter in public, they will also curse those extreme wizards.

Otherwise, you are evil-minded and have no sympathy!

Obviously, due to various factors, this matter has been artificially promoted from a disappearance incident to a political event.

It is in this situation that some proposals related to improving the situation of all half-bloods frequently appear on the meeting table of the Ministry of Magic.

The wizards in the incident may not feel much about it.

They talked about the names of the victims, discussed the lives of the victims, were indignant about the victims' experiences, and speculated on the probability that the victims were still alive, but that was all.

However, some people with a keen sense of smell have already been able to perceive that the name of Egg Wilson will inevitably be recorded in the history of magic because of the improvement of certain systems.

...

As the person involved, Mellen didn't know that before he had time to think about how to make himself more correct, someone was already impatient to add buffs to him.

In fact, he was trapped in the dark world and had forgotten about adding buffs.

A while ago, after inventing that secret technique and spying on an enemy, he was woken up by his teacher and asked about the details.

Mellen, who couldn't tell the truth, only claimed that he used the resonance method of possession to try to control those mysterious substances, and then he solved the food problem inexplicably.

This is obviously something beyond the cognition of normal wizards.

Mrs. Chelsea has been looking up materials on this during this period of time, hoping to find similar cases, so that the apprentice Mellen will not encounter any dangerous situations in the future.

Her research seems to have made some progress, and she even said yesterday that she has made some preliminary progress.

This made Mellen tremble with fear, wondering if he had accidentally stepped into a pit.

However, the teacher said that the specific situation can only be confirmed after Melen is out of here and his body is carefully examined.

So there is no rush to deal with this matter for the time being.

In contrast, Melen is actually more concerned about the current situation of the teacher's daughter-

The blonde girl named Alyssa did not know that it was her mother who knocked her unconscious that day, and thought that this was a shot that Melen could not bear after hearing her perverted story.

This made the girl, whose mind was clear again because of the improvement of her condition, extremely ashamed.

So after waking up, she looked ashamed to see people, or ashamed to see Melen.

During this period, except when she had to move over to be fed by Melen when she was hungry and thirsty, she basically hid in a pit ten meters away from Melen and rarely talked to Melen.

This made Melen very disappointed.

Because he was still thinking about secretly encouraging her to call dad when the teacher was not around.

But apart from this dirty thought, he did not forget the business.

Taking advantage of the large amount of free time, Melen has successfully practiced the top knight defense technique.

This behavior avoids the sight of the girl and the teacher.

So silently, no one knows that Melen is no longer a Wuxia Amon.

At the same time, Melen uses his unique secret technique to spy on or monitor the enemy named nun every day.

Unfortunately, the fat lady he can possess is not so much the nun's confidant as the nun's bed-warming maid and human-shaped pillow.

When he possesses her, except for experiencing unhealthy encounters every three or five days, there is basically nothing else to gain.

Melen only knows that the nun is contacting someone and is preparing to officially step into the barren plain where he is on the fifth of this month, which is the day after tomorrow.

How to step in and who to contact, Melen knows nothing.

The teacher seems to know when the enemy will come and is also prepared.

So Melen didn't think about how to remind the other party.

In short, although he was trapped in this gloomy place during this period, his life was still full of colors.

Everything was going on in an orderly manner.

The only thing that Mellen couldn't grasp was the fate he got after changing the fate of the blonde girl Alyssa.

Or in other words, what he extracted from the fate.

It was a name.

A name with mysterious power.
