Chapter 671 The Neglected Capital
The Venetian habit of wearing masks originated from a group of nobles hiding from debts. In order not to be recognized by their creditors and enemies, they wore masks and cloaks and shuttled through the streets of Venice.
Later, some people wore gorgeous masks to secretly meet their lovers. They held a boat under the lover's window sill and climbed up with the rope lowered by her. In addition to these heart thieves, there were also jewelry thieves.
This custom even spread to Spain, and then to South America by the Spaniards. The famous swordsman "Zorro" was also a masked man. It was a movie co-produced by Italy and France, about the people's resistance to the tyranny of the governor.
Before the 18th century, masks were a part of Venetian life, and the law even allowed Venetians to wear masks to work and live most of the year. It was not until Napoleon invaded Italy and conquered Venice that mask-wearing people disappeared.
Death Eaters also wear masks. The masks are black and cover most of their face, leaving only their chin exposed. They have hidden flowers on them and look very gorgeous.
But it is like what Philip said, it is the "mask of death", because with those masks, even if the victim sees the murderer at close range, he still cannot identify him unless the other party takes off the mask, so there are Karkaroff and
Lucius Malfoy's deal to clear their names and avoid Azkaban by identifying other hidden Death Eaters.
Bellatrix never wears a mask. She is a loyal believer of the Dark Lord and is not at all ashamed of being a Death Eater.
After Voldemort was defeated twice, the Death Eaters became notorious. Even those who had joined the Death Eaters tried their best to hide their past, and those who had the Dark Mark on their arms became the target of discrimination.
But even so, they are still much better than werewolves. The transformed werewolf cannot be hidden by a mask. The carnival between werewolves and Death Eaters is always inevitable with blood and killing, which is different from the masquerade party with beautiful clothes and shadows.
Not the same thing.
When you gaze into the abyss, the abyss will gaze back.
When fighting monsters, be careful to become a monster yourself.
Zhengqi masters themselves are no different from dark wizards. In fact, they don't need to engage in this profession. It is a very difficult employment path, and it is far less easy than being a chef or a company employee.
It is Harry's dream to become a righteousness teacher, but like his mother, he is a sunshine person. James is the person he learns about masculinity, but when he can't handle the pressure, he will look for women. He is very
Relying on Hermione, sometimes Luna, Ginny, a boy like him is not suitable to be a righteous teacher.
When the European train stopped at the train station in Bern, it started to snow.
Geographically, the Alps are in the south, but the average altitude of Switzerland is relatively high. Spring is from April to June, with an average temperature of about 8°C. The snow has not yet melted at the end of February, and everything is covered with snow.
The special train in the light snow was like a Snowpiercer train. A group of Aurors and officers stood neatly in the snow and waited solemnly.
This city hidden in the mountains contains all the tourists' imaginations and demands for ancient European cities. The ancient buildings, the magnificent train station lacking modern decoration, and the local people who pay attention to tradition, it seems that time has stopped here, as far as the eye can see.
There is an air of exquisite melancholy.
Although these landmark buildings are tall and majestic, the deep and quiet small-town atmosphere here makes people easily overlook the little remaining seriousness and utilitarianism that a capital city should have. It is nothing like London or Paris.
Albus once said that there is a street in Bern called Grindelwald. He has always wanted to find time to visit here, but he is like the king on the chessboard, spending most of his time trapped in Hogg
Woz.
Pomona had never met the Dark Lord, but even Voldemort said he was very charming, so he was really charming.
She tried to place the arrogant blond boy in the photo in Bagshot's book in this place, but felt it was a bit out of place. Then she thought of his wanted photos, and it suddenly matched.
Grindelwald is a free "musician". He should be able to feel the rhythm of magic in the air, but it is a pity that he cannot hear people's voices.
He reused Queenie, a witch born with Legilimency. Because of her desire for love, she wanted to marry Muggle Jacob, but that was not allowed by the International Secrecy Act, so the little fool listened to Grindelwald's temptation and became a
Become a member of a criminal gang.
A woman is much easier to control than a man, especially when she has extraordinary talents.
Beauty was as natural as talent, and Helen didn't want to cause a war, but Troy still perished.
This is a gift from God, but it is also a curse. It marks that a person will be different from ordinary people.
If you abandon it and become an ordinary person again, it would be a waste. Imagine what the world would be like if Einstein did not come up with the theory of relativity here? Or maybe Lenin did not think about it in the cafe here, Russia is still the same
Under the Tsarist rule, could the Cossack cavalry defeat the tanks and aircraft of the German mechanized forces?
Although the German attack on Poland was a surprise attack, the Poles still resisted, but they still dispatched medieval cavalry.
They used spears and sabers to face German tanks and armored vehicles, and they defended their dignity as a soldier with their lives.
But war is not won by bravery alone.
In this oldest town, the most advanced knowledge was born, thus changing the structure of the world.
Just like a grain of wheat planted in the ground, it takes root and sprouts, turns into an ear of wheat, and eventually produces many, many wheat grains.
He did not come for judgment, but for salvation.
Grindelwald wanted to stop Muggles from destroying the world. Was he right or wrong?
"Good evening!" The leader held the driver's hand. "I am sent by the Department of Magic and Disasters to pick you up..."
"Don't look over there." Severus whispered in her ear, "Don't get yourself into trouble, we are abroad now."
"I'm hungry." Pomona held his hand and said, "Is there any restaurant where we can eat now?"
Severus looked at her and shook his head.
"Why do you keep thinking about eating?"
"are you not hungry?"
"After seeing those wounds? That's right." Severus couldn't hide his disgust and said, "You can't find a warmer place and have to stand in the snow."
"Maybe, instead of going to Venice, we can have a honeymoon in Switzerland." She took out a pile of travel information, which she accidentally found in the dining car just now. Maybe some tourist forgot to take it away. "There are also hot springs here.
,Have you ever soaked in an open-air hot spring?"
He looked at the information in her hand cautiously.
"What's wrong?" she asked.
"Do they provide shampoo?"
"Maybe."
"What the hell!" He cursed through gritted teeth.
She couldn't figure out what was wrong with him.
At this time, the four Muggles were floated out of the car, their bodies covered in a layer of golden liquid.
"Are you going to be okay?" she asked worriedly.
"I didn't touch them." Severus looked at his hands and said happily, "Fortunately I am a wizard."
