Retirement from Hogwarts

"There are many things we want. Magic, technology, souls, weapons, population, etc., anything of value can give you a way to survive." Jack said as he glanced at the people after the battle. The embers gradually surrounding him began to speak louder. "As long as you are strong enough, smart enough, and able to follow the rules I have set, you can get anything you want from me."

. . . . . .

[Is it really okay for you to use charming humanoid creatures to trick them into working for you for nothing? 】After Jack's speech ended, looking at the embers around him who were fooled by Jack into almost treating him as the savior of the world, Hermione couldn't help but feel a little funny about Jack's stinginess. [Obviously they will all be your crew members in the future, but in the end you still need to collect their tickets.When the world is completely destroyed, you won't have as many dark souls as you want, so why bother squeezing them now? 】

[Ahem, you don’t understand this. People don’t appreciate things they get without working hard.Only through their own efforts bit by bit can they cherish the things they get in their hands. 】Looking at Hermione's contemptuous expression, Jack coughed a little embarrassedly, and then started talking nonsense seriously. [And without actual combat testing, how would I know who among them has stronger combat effectiveness and who has better organizational skills? 】

[You are the only one who has the most sense. 】Hermione looked at Jack who was plausibly speaking and couldn't help but smile. [But how are you going to deal with the old, weak, women and children they found?We can't all be sent to your ship, right? 】

[Old, weak, women and children?How could something like that really exist in a world full of dangers? ] Jack winked at Hermione and asked. [In this world, all creatures that can survive are undoubtedly powerful warriors.Even if they are not allowed to actually fight when they get to the ship, they will still be the best instructors for the new generation. 】

Seeing Jack's expression of being in control of everything, Hermione reluctantly gave up trying to persuade him.

"Are the two adults really planning to go to Losric City?" Shortly after the speech, Andre, who had been severely punished by Jack before, approached them again.

"It's really dangerous right now. We have even completely lost contact with the Supreme King's City. No one can be sure whether the knights in the King's City are really awake now. If something unexpected happens to you inside..." When he said this, he couldn't help but glance at the surrounding campsites that were once again revitalized after coming out of decadence. "I'm afraid they will really despair."

"Don't worry, Andre, this kind of thing won't happen." Jack gently shook his head at Andre, who was successfully tricked into becoming his subordinate, and then handed him a crystal ball and a scroll. "Put this in the center of the camp. Anyone who meets any of the requirements on the scroll can be transported to the entrance of the new world through this crystal ball. However, if they do not intend to follow the agreement on the scroll, or use it without meeting the conditions, With this crystal ball, don’t blame me for what happens then.”

"Since you said so, please come with me." After Andre put away the scroll and crystal ball that Jack gave him, he helplessly led them out of the gate of the sacrificial hall and headed towards Loris City. Walked past the steep cliff below.

After leading them through the ruined cemeteries, Andre finally led them to a stop in front of a huge sarcophagus.

"Two adults, this is where the secret passage is. This secret passage is also where we obtained information about the royal city before." Andre said that he couldn't help but paused and sighed sadly. "But now that contact has been completely lost, the soldiers who were once on duty inside have probably become minions of the abyss."

"Don't worry, we are not that fragile." Jack said this and showed a confident smile to Andre. "Now help us open it. Those living corpses will not pose any threat to us."

"In that case, as you wish." Seeing Jack's insistence, Andre bowed deeply to Jack helplessly, then reached out and rotated the decorative emblem on the top of a nearby tombstone 180 degrees.Following his movements, the cliff on the left side of the sarcophagus in front of them began to sink with a violent vibration.

"It looks very clean inside, but where are the soldiers who were supposed to be here?" Andre opened the passage and poked his head in. After sniffing hard, he found that there were no rotting corpses in the passage. He couldn't help but frown deeply when he tasted it. "Although there doesn't seem to be any danger inside, you two adults should be careful."

"I'll leave the matters in the camp to you, Andre. Also, keep an eye on the Guda for me, and wait until the knights with this coat of arms arrive to hand over the Guda to them." Jack said to the worried man Andre nodded, and then handed him a badge of the Space-Time Administration.After making sure that Andre had remembered his instructions, he took Hermione into the secret passage.

"Jack, look here, how come there are gems here?" Just as they were about to walk out of the secret passage, a light blue gem shining with crystal light caught Hermione's eyes. "Do you think someone had an affair with the guards here and planned to take advantage of the situation, so they were silenced along with the guards here?"

Jack's eyes couldn't help but shrink when he saw the gem picked up by Hermione, and his expression quickly became serious. "This thing is not a gem. It is the crystallization of the crystallized dragon's breath."

"Could it be that there is a dragon in this secret passage?" Hermione couldn't help being frightened after hearing Jack's words. "Didn't Andre say before that dragons are beings that are conquered by the heroes in this world? How come there is such a thing in their royal city?"

"Humans have the same habit of seeking death, don't they? They always like to study dangerous things in places they think are safe. Anyway, they are not the ones who get tricked in the end." Jack shrugged helplessly. "And whether in the legend or in the records of magic history, it is the Black Dragon Legion that fights against Gwen. These gem dragons, who are the black dragon's mortal enemies, may be their allies. In this case, it is not surprising that there are still Bai Lai in this world. matter."
