Chapter 507

This sounded really fantastic, but according to Zhang Qiu, the parallel world theory had become the thing Master Xuanjun cared about most after coming out of seclusion.

"Master had other insights during his seclusion. He said that even if the level of social governance reaches perfection, the overall development of society will eventually be limited by resources. If the goal is set more long-term, it will eventually be necessary to explore the path of infinite resources." Zhang Qiu explained, "He is preparing to propose a two-step new field plan. The first is to encourage the Muggle world to explore space, and the second is to encourage the Wizarding World to explore parallel worlds."

Tang Tang Nade moved his gaze away somewhat emotionally and looked elsewhere. He said faintly: "The old thing is still walking in front."

"But this is not right." Harry thought of what Ge Xuan had said, "Didn't you say that after space-time is frozen, we can no longer explore parallel worlds?"

"So he hopes to find some breakthroughs from Tang Tang Nade." Zhang Qiu leaned on the table with her hands clasped, and said very seriously, "We all know that 'love' is the emotion that can best trigger powerful magical power, so if you still love your wife from your previous life, you might as well try. Mr. Tang Tang Nade, you are very special originally, perhaps you can find a spell to travel through parallel worlds?"

Tang Tang Nade felt a little awkward. He didn't have a wife from his previous life at all. This was just an excuse he found to cover up his evil deeds in front of Harry last time. He didn't know whether Zhang Qiu really misunderstood, or Ge Xuan was deliberately making fun of his mistake again. However, at least for him, he was more willing to stay in this world with magic than to return to the original world.

"Hmm, what if it can't succeed?" Tang Tang Nade said, "I have also met many friends here, have people I care about, perhaps I don't want to go back so strongly."

"Then we can only consider it from another angle, adventure to try to repair space-time." Zhang Qiu shrugged, "Master is also thinking about a plan to repair space-time. Of course, the disadvantage is that it is very likely to encounter the Death who comes back—but we have a good chance of winning, or to put it this way, we must execute this plan to repair space-time when we are fully prepared and ensure that we can defeat Death."

Needless to say, Harry also knew that Ge Xuan must have regarded himself who stole the power of Death, and Ron who synthesized the power to defeat Death, as the foundation of this entire plan. He couldn't help but sigh like Tang Tang Nade at this moment. Ge Xuan's ideas and actions were a bit too advanced.

"Let's talk about something immediate." Tang Tang Nade hummed, "I think you should persuade the Prime Minister to start deploying the Focused Rainbow in various parts of Europe as soon as possible."

"But this has no effect on airships?" Harry asked back suspiciously.

"I am considering it this way." Tang Tang Nade stretched out two hands, "In today's world, the possibility of a large-scale conventional war is minimal, so there is no need to struggle with the airship problem. On the contrary, what we should be more vigilant about is Yanayev making a floating city for the Soviet side. If he makes a city that is larger, higher, and equipped with Muggle troops, then that is our real big failure."

"I understand, you want to use the method of concentrated attack to realize the connection of multiple Focused Rainbows." Zhang Qiu nodded in deep agreement, "This will indeed be a great challenge for the protection of the floating city."

"And we are not really going to launch an attack immediately, just retain this means, so that he will be timid when considering the floating city project." Tang Tang Nade touched his chin and said slowly, "Since the space-based mothership of the Magical Congress is destined to become a laughing stock, then I should also consider myself more, how to consolidate and improve the advantages that Dalaran can bring as much as possible: because I don't count on the floating city to have any technological barriers. It is very easy for Yanayev to copy one, so we can only threaten him and scare him from the perspective of attack..."

"Does the floating city have no technological barriers?" Harry clearly remembered that the documents brought by the Heavenly Dynasty people contained many brand-new spells, and some new technologies praised by Muggle scientists. These were important technologies for making floating cities. Logically speaking, as long as they were not leaked, it would be a very difficult thing for Yanayev to replicate a floating city there.

"The floating city, to put it bluntly, is still brute force. Even if he encounters some difficulties, as long as he increases investment and spares no cost, he can still replicate it." Zhang Qiu shrugged.

Next, none of them chatted about this situation that made people feel powerless, but turned to talk about some relaxed topics. Tang Tang Nade pointed out that if there was a need to build Focused Rainbows in various parts of Europe, then the batch of werewolf wizards who started construction that year would naturally become the corresponding "engineering experts." They could proudly travel between the Wizarding Worlds of various countries and enjoy expert treatment, which was a great good thing for the werewolf group and the reputation of Gilneas.

Incidentally, if a batch of werewolves traveled around to guide the engineering of other countries, then there would be some vacancies in the local positions of Gilneas, which was undoubtedly a good opportunity for the vampire group who were still struggling on the food and clothing line.

After deeply analyzing this situation, Tang Tang Nade tidied up a little and prepared to go back. After all, the Focused Rainbow was a large engineering project. If it were promoted in the EU, it would also have a considerable impact on the Muggle world. Engineering and construction companies would usher in a wave of benefits, and manufacturers focusing on glass, crystal, and optical precision instruments could also benefit significantly—the reason he was in a hurry to go back was to let investment consultants layout in relevant fields as soon as possible, and add another stroke to his wealth that was already too much to spend.

After this matter, Harry also prepared to return to Tang Dun and spend the second half of the pleasant Christmas holiday with his family. However, when he was enjoying life in Tang Dun, Lupin was still trying to balance work and life, taking care of his pregnant wife while dealing with internal affairs and dealing with annoying KGB agents. And, the things that made him feel troubled and difficult to deal with added one more: after Snape took over the management of vampires, friction frequently occurred between the two groups, and he had to spend a lot of energy to reconcile the contradictions.

Clearly, this situation also affected Snape. After Christmas, on the day of returning to school, Harry could see Snape's face full of visible exhaustion. And, he started to frequently leave school to deal with various affairs. Although it had no impact on the school, Harry was vaguely worried about his mental state.

By the beginning of February, Snape's frequent outings finally caused some impact on the school. Even though McGonagall still loved this school conscientiously, Slughorn started to have some movements.

"So, Harry, you know we are preparing to open a university, right." At a Slug Club party, Slughorn asked Harry somewhat cautiously, pretending to be nonchalant, "I heard from some friends that university is like grades eight to twelve, but other friends say that this is the advanced class of the advanced class, and only students with the highest NEWT scores are qualified to attend university. Who do you think is right?"

"Perhaps both are right." Harry shrugged, "Muggles do use scores to decide whether a student can enter university, but the students in our Wizarding World are really too few. If we want to open the university smoothly, we may have to lower the admission requirements, and in the end, it will become Hogwarts plus four more years."

"Ah, ah, that's how it is." Slughorn rubbed his wine glass unconsciously. Clearly, he had some ideas that were inconvenient to say out loud.

"Then, if European students." He said, "If they also come here to attend university, of course, this is what I am very happy to see. I like to make friends with excellent students. If the university is still according to scores..."

"This idea is very beautiful. Of course, we also envisioned it this way." Harry said generously, "This can expand our influence, and incidentally conduct some merit selection to improve the quality of the university's student source."

"I'll just say it straight, Harry." Slughorn put the wine glass aside, "Is Professor Snape busy planning this matter recently? Is he going to recruit European students?"

"Ah?" Harry knew in his heart that Snape should have spent a lot of time with vampires, but he was not sure if it was convenient to say it out, so he answered ambiguously: "I don't know, he didn't tell me."

"But we all know that matters related to the university cannot bypass you, don't we?" Slughorn seemed a little anxious, "The relationship between the Prince and Ginny... and many people know that you almost entered the House of Lords, cough cough, Harry, can you accurately tell me, is the list of university professors out?"

"That's still early, right." Harry could finally know what Slughorn was thinking: for him who liked to form cliques and engage in human relations, the university was undoubtedly a better platform. However, if Snape decided to serve as the university president, then he would mostly also serve as the Potions professor, so there would be no place for Slughorn in the university.

And, if you think from another perspective, Slughorn continuing to be a middle school professor is a thing that has great benefits for the Wizarding World and for Hogwarts. Two Potions masters cover the students' educational career from 11 to 22 years old, and one can imagine how beautiful the development of Potions in the British Wizarding World will be.

But for Slughorn who is keen on drilling, this is not so beautiful.

"Sigh, Professor." Harry scratched his head, "I can understand your thoughts, but in this way, who will stay at Hogwarts to teach Potions?"

"So many excellent graduates." Slughorn said somewhat disapprovingly, "Give them a foundation, catch the exams in the fifth and seventh years, and profound knowledge can be learned in university!"

Harry couldn't grasp Snape's thoughts, so he couldn't give a definite conclusion. After another round of pulling with Slughorn, just as Harry pushed the door to leave, he noticed Pansy standing in the corridor, looking at him eagerly.

I don't know what this is coming to ask again. Harry felt a little irritable in his heart, but still smiled at her very politely.
