My Little Pony: Another World Adventure
Chapter 36: The Knights of the Red Lion
With Lucius's reluctant promise, Latan went to the auditorium to fill his stomach in a refreshed mood. He was in such a good mood that even the fish and chips tasted much better.
The stomach is indeed an emotional organ. As long as the mood is good enough, it doesn’t mind what the mouth puts in.
The reason for purchasing the production line of the T-80U main battle tank, in addition to Latan's desire to mass-produce magic armor, was mainly because he wanted to combine modern technology with magic, so that the gradually declining magic world could shine again in this Bronze Age.
Looking back at the long history of magic, it can be roughly divided into three periods according to time nodes - the Golden Age from the Middle Ages to the First Industrial Revolution, the Silver Age from the Industrial Revolution to the outbreak of World War I, and the Bronze Age from the end of World War II to the present.
Before the First Industrial Revolution, the backward productivity of Muggles allowed wizards (as well as half-bloods and aliens) who mastered magic to have absolute say. Even King Arthur had to look at Merlin's face and rely on prophecies and spells to unify ancient Britain.
However, the Industrial Revolution brought about a rapid growth in Muggle productivity. Cannons and flintlock rifles not only overthrew the knight class, but also gave kings and rulers who were tired of being controlled by others hope of resisting wizards.
After being counterattacked by Muggles, the arrogant wizards angrily left the sight of the mortal world. They either built their own wizard towers in the mountains and forests, or hid in the city and mixed in the rapidly expanding urban areas. This is the sign of the beginning of the Silver Age.
Despite the heavy losses, the number of wizards did not decrease until the outbreak of World War I, when all kinds of cruel and vicious killing machines were invented by Muggles. When steel behemoths such as tanks and airplanes appeared on the battlefield, wizard towers completely lost their ability to shelter wizards and were reduced to ruins under bombing.
Wizards always have an inexplicable pride. They do not allow themselves to bow to Muggles and are proud of their pure bloodline.
This trend of thought not only affected Tom Marvolo Riddle, who was still a student, but also Albus Dumbledore at the time (but he later came to his senses) and the first generation Dark Lord, Gellert Grindelwald.
After the outbreak of World War II in 1933, Grindelwald not only went to Europe to take advantage of the chaotic situation to expand his influence, but also established the Wiccan Party by contacting the master of the Third Reich.
In the eyes of Muggles, Hitler became increasingly superstitious in the later stages of the war, but in fact he did form a wizarding army with the help of Grindelwald and committed numerous crimes against half-blood wizards in Europe, Africa and Asia.
In short, after the end of World War II, wizards began to hide themselves more carefully than before, and established a more complete and strict legal system to punish those wizards who revealed magic in public. The Silver Age ended and the Bronze Age began.
Ratan certainly wasn't some Bronze Age Dark Lord who was purposelessly purging the wizarding world of half-bloods and actively and pointlessly persecuting Muggles.
And this guy ended up being killed by the killing curse he shot himself, and his soul was shattered into seven pieces on the spot. It can only be said that both the beginning and the end were very anthropomorphic and made everyone laugh.
The Red Lion wants to combine the strengths of Muggles and wizards, grasp both hands and make both hands strong, use the production line to mass-produce mass-produced magic armor, and let the wizard masters who are still in the pure handicraft form see what the power of industry is.
As for the test drivers of the mass-produced magic armor... they are of course the time travelers.
After all, the mass-produced model needs to be adjusted according to the physique of ordinary people. Latan cannot just seek high output like the Holy Shield type he made for himself, and rely on strong physical fitness to handle the rest.
If an ordinary person were to wear the Holy Shield, the power skeleton would break their lumbar vertebrae with a slight turn of the waist, and raising their hands would cause the muscles and fascia to tear.
The lives of wizards and Muggles are precious, but as for time travelers, the fewer there are, the better!
Be grateful. As the first batch of pilots of the Magic Armor, your sacrifice will surely leave a mark in history.
Latan showed a smile as warm as the sun, and his angular and handsome face softened instantly, perfectly interpreting the meanings of the two words "beautiful" and "handsome".
The attraction and holiness contained in it even transcended gender, causing the boys and girls who were having lunch in the auditorium to involuntarily stand still and stare at the red-haired giant with fascination and eyes that were almost pious.
This made the socially anxious Red Lion's cheeks turn as red as his hair. He quickly covered his face with his sleeves, hunched his shoulders, and fled out of the auditorium in shame.
Back in the dormitory, Latan first comforted the anxious Minamoto Kiyotaka, saying that Professor Dumbledore already knew about the existence of Godzilla and told him not to worry. Then he sat down on Colin's bed and said to the still frightened boy, "You are worried that the monster will hurt your family, right?"
Colin nodded heavily. He was holding a family photo in his hand. His father, mother and brother were surrounding him. The burly man ruffled Colin's hair with his hands. The thin woman looked at her two sons lovingly. His younger brother Dennis had a pair of protruding ears like him.
What an ordinary yet beautiful family.
If time travelers were allowed to do whatever they wanted, how many families like this would be broken up, and how many family portraits would be torn apart by time travelers?
Latan didn't want to imagine that scene. He patted Colin on the shoulder and pointed his thumb at his chest: "Don't worry, as long as I'm here, that big guy won't be able to set foot on land."
"What qualifications do you have to call others big guys?" Dante livened up the atmosphere with a smile, and put his arms around Minamoto Kiyotaka's neck, "Isn't that right, Kiyotaka-chan?"
"Don't call me that!" Minamoto Kiyotaka's face turned red as if it was burning.
"In short, Colin." Latan looked into his friend's eyes, "I believe in you. You will be able to protect your family."
“But…” Colin’s thin body trembled uncontrollably, tears welling up in his eyes. “Godzilla is so big, how can I…”
"Then don't trust yourself." Latan said lightly.
As soon as these words came out, the dormitory fell silent. Colin stared at the red lion in amazement. Dante was hanging on Minamoto Kiyotaka's back in a funny posture. The half-blood even forgot to push away the half-demon's fingers that were poking his cheek.
"Listen, Colin, don't believe in yourself. Believe in me, believe in me who believes in you!" Latan laughed and stood up, his head almost rubbing against the ceiling, his arms folded across his chest, "Because I am the Red Lion! So you will be absolutely fine!"
"There is no causal relationship between these two things..." Minamoto Kiyotaka complained helplessly.
"I get it, man!" Dante suddenly realized, "Just like because we are us (supervisors), we can deal with them (travelers) no matter what! This is a truth!"
Yuan Qinglong said anxiously: "This is totally different!"
"Same!" Dante firmly grasped Minamoto Kiyotaka's thin shoulders, "Because I trust you, I trust Latan. Because I trust him, I trust you. To me, this is what we call a partner!"
"…It's simply unreasonable." Minamoto Kiyotaka said with a wry smile, "What's even more unreasonable is that I actually understood it."
"So, Colin," Latan extended his broad palm to the little boy, "are you willing to believe me?"
This is a torture question.
Latan transforms into Colin's inner self, questioning whether he has the confidence to protect his family.
Colin understood, but he was still afraid of Godzilla. He was just more afraid of his family dying as a result of it than the monster.
So, he wiped the weak tears from his face and placed his wet palm in Latarn’s palm: “I believe you.”
"I feel like Latan has become a little different." Minamoto Kiyotaka whispered to Dante.
"Yeah, I'm almost obsessed with him." Dante smiled, not serious. "By the way, my two good friends, I think it's time to let Colin know something."
"I don't object to this." Yuan Qinglong put his hands in his sleeves and smiled like a fox. "After all, I also want to know what kind of punishment this will bring to the time traveler."
"Time traveler?" Faced with this meaningless word, Colin was full of questions.
Latan smiled and took out seven books from the ring in his pocket. He flipped through them and said, "Let's first take a look at Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, where you appeared. Unfortunately, you suffered from a mental illness called the fan effect in the original book..."

In the Hufflepuff common room, Elena, who was trying to sell the old seal amulet to Randolph Carter, suddenly jumped up as if her butt was on fire, and let out a heart-wrenching cry - "Ah!!!"
Havana, who was lying on the sofa digesting her food, was frightened by her and slid to the ground. She climbed up, holding her buttocks, and said with murderous intent: "You'd better give me a reason to yell and scream, or I'll make your buttocks bloom!"
"Gone!"
Elena looked at Havana with a pale face: "My strongest arms dealer system is gone!"
Havana's eyes widened and her pupils shrank as small as needles.
What happened? Did Dumbledore leak the original plot?
----
“Ah—ah—ah—choo!”
Dumbledore sniffed, making a very rude sound. Only in this place would he be so casual, because he knew that the man in front of him would not blame him. After all, they used to be the best of friends.
"It's awfully cold here, Gellert," he said.
"If you don't mind, you can come to the bed." The shriveled old man lifted the thin cloth on his thighs, revealing his legs that had shrunk due to lack of movement for too long, "I'll give you half of the blanket."
Fifty years ago, no one would have thought that the first Dark Lord, Gellert Grindelwald, would spend the rest of his life in a small cell.
Grindelwald has the Eye of Prophecy. Does he know his own end? This question will never have an answer...
"Forget it. After all, you catch colds much more easily than I do." Dumbledore showed Grindelwald his arm muscles that were comparable to those of a bodybuilder. His biceps bulged high like mountains. "Look, I am stronger now than I was fifty years ago."
"Albus, you came all the way to Nurmengard not just to make me drool with envy, right?" Grindelwald wrapped himself tightly in the blanket, grinning with his toothless mouth, revealing his atrophied gums. "Tell me, what is it that has troubled you so much that you have to come to a sinner like me to discuss it."
In the dark and narrow cell, Dumbledore looked at the only light source in the room, a small window sealed by iron bars and magic, and whispered: "I suspect that I have recruited the third Dark Lord. His name is..."

Latan spent the entire afternoon designing exclusive magic armor for Dante and Minamoto Kiyotaka. With the Holy Shield type as the basis, the work went very smoothly.
It would have been better if Minamoto no Kiyotaka had stopped swearing in Japanese. Although Latan had learned a lot of Tokyo slang, it could only be used to greet the other party's direct relatives three generations ago.
But it is understandable. After all, after watching "Dragon Family", I also wanted to discuss the Herzog family in detail and in depth using Berlin slang.
During a bathroom break (which ended up being full), Latarn helped Colin improve his Polaroid camera, which could now do more than just take photos. With the safety on, it could also fire .45 caliber pistol rounds from the lens while activating the Armor Charm.
