To be honest, if it weren't for the help of the eldest lady who longed to be loved, Director Hoover would not have established relationships with these people. This relationship has always been the top secret within the Bureau, even if Hoover was gay. The level of confidentiality is even higher, and it's higher by more than one level.
Even the planning of McCarthyism, a plan that has affected America for decades, is not as confidential as this secret.
The reason why the Investigation Bureau is so secretive is because there are many good things in the magic world, such as things that increase lifespan and restore disabilities. These things were previously exclusive to the Investigation Bureau, and other departments did not know the existence of these things. .
"I want to know who leaked our connection with this place. If I find out who it is, I will pour aqua regia into his stomach to let him know the consequences of leaking the secret!"
Old Emre said, holding his cigar in his mouth.
The people present were all insiders within the Investigation Bureau, and old Emre would not let them come if he did not know.
So he can speak freely.
In the Woolworth Building, Lu Bu had just completed the action of punching. Su Xiong beside him had a collapsed face. He just threw a punch. The building was almost destroyed. Could this person really be Lu Bu? What?
Su Xiong slowly looked at Lu Bu. He suddenly felt that this person couldn't be Lu Bu's, because in his opinion, even Lu Bu couldn't do this.
"You can actually do this with one punch?"
Su Xiong said with trembling lips.
"No, it's not just one punch. There are more than a hundred floors inside this building. It's impossible for me to kill everyone inside with one punch. Otherwise, this building will be destroyed. I punched more than a hundred times. Each floor was punched. Only in this way can the building not be destroyed. After all, this building is too fragile. It is not like the Queen's floating city, where every inch of the building is soaked with the essence of heaven and earth. The land has been strengthened to the point where Xiang Yu can be imprisoned, but this building is still fragile, and you have no idea of the impregnating effect of the essence of heaven and earth."
Lu Bu shook his head. He said twice that the building was too fragile. This was what he really thought. But he forgot that Liu Tong's Heavenly Palace was the supreme product of the Han Dynasty. It was the core of the Han Dynasty. It relied on Xiang Yu. The unconscious surprise is exuded, which is the highest architectural achievement created by the magnetic field of the heavenly star and the artificial sacred stone.
Even Rome was shouting miracles about the Celestial Palace, and the Woolworth Building was just an ordinary building in the world of science and technology. It was just that the Magical Congress released a traceless expansion spell inside, making the building become so huge.
After hearing that Lu Bu said not one punch but more than a hundred punches, Su Xiong's eyes widened. He couldn't hit even one punch at this level, but the man in front of him actually punched a hundred punches. ?
He never thought about whether he might be deceived, because you can't deceive people on the spot, and such a great master will not deceive people casually.
"Are you really Lu Bu?"
Su Xiong asked a question that he thought was stupid. This man had obviously told him that he was Lu Bu a long time ago, but Su Xiong just didn't believe it. Now he wanted to confirm it again.
"I told you, I am Lu Bu, the Wenhou of the Han Dynasty, Lu Bu!"
Lu Bu looked at Su Xiong and didn't know why he asked this question. In his opinion, this question was meaningless, just like he didn't know what the meaning of doing it was.
Lu Bu had no idea why he came here and wanted to kill everyone before ordinary people were ready to enter this building, but this did not prevent him from taking action. After all, idleness was idleness, and he had nothing to fight against in the big Han Dynasty. They have a lot of time to grow their fur, so it’s good to be able to go out and move around.
Even though he didn't like the environment here, he still came. After all, having something to do was better than being idle and growing hair.
After Su Xiong got his answer, he was ready to ask why he came here to kill everyone here. You must know that this is the Magic Congress, the highest authority in the alien world of America. This is a shocking situation. big event.
"you……"
Just as Su Xiong opened his mouth to ask, Lu Bu glanced at the door, then said someone was coming, pulled Su Xiong and hid, and waved his hand at the same time, letting the essence of heaven and earth completely cover them. No one who is not strong enough to release internal energy can detect them. This is something developed by Lu Bu. It is a version of the essence of heaven and earth based on Xun You's spiritual talent. However, it can only be used by a few people, and it cannot be moved casually.
So Lu Bu directly dragged Su Xiong and flew to the sky.
It can be seen that Su Xiong has never gone to the sky after so many years. This is his first time, but what he cares about now is not going to the sky, but whether his belt is strong enough. He doesn't want to fall from this height. People will die.
Su Xiong cursed for a while. Originally, he wanted to ask what was going on, but before he could ask, Lu Bu sealed all the energy channels in his body, making him unable to move casually and could only look down.
At the door, old Emre took out the things left by the previous Czar, opened the magic entrance of the Woolworth Building, and led the people through.
There was a drumbeat in his heart. To be honest, he really didn't want to come, and he still brought so many people. Who knows what is going on with the Magical Congress now.
As far as Old Emre knew, there were constant disputes within the Magic Congress, and he didn’t know what was going on. After Serafina Picquery, there was no Speaker of the Congress who could manage the entire Congress. The forces on the other side are working on their own affairs and are stalemate with each other, and they all want to get the position of speaker.
Although the current Speaker Lucas is a powerful figure, he is also the least powerful speaker in the history of the Magic Congress. Not many people listen to what he says except his close followers. It can be said that the government orders do not leave the desk. It has become the norm.
That's why he communicated with old Emre and the others. This was also to absorb some external forces and to put pressure on the inside to let everyone know that he was related to No-Maj. If you don't respect me , I will play with the No-Maj government and expose things about the Magic Congress.
Everyone knew this was a threat, but no one dared to test whether Lucas dared to expose this matter. You know, the year Lucas came to power, because everyone really looked down upon him. When he saw it, Lucas did something big that shocked the entire magical world.
That is the repeal of the "Rappaport Laws" that had been implemented in 1790.
This law came about because Dorcas, the daughter of Aristotle the Twelvetrees, the Treasurer and Drocauld Manager at the time (also the Treasurer of the Wizarding World), gave the addresses of the Magical Congress of America and Ilvermorny School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. As well as the methods of hiding oneself in the magical world, all were revealed to a No-Maj boy, Bartholomew Barebone, whom he had a crush on.
And this Bartholomew is a descendant of the Purifiers (the executors of the witch-exclusion movement). He firmly believes that magic is real and believes that both male and female witches are evil and should be eliminated. So he stole Dorcas's wand and exposed everything he had heard about the wizarding world to the No-Maj media and public figures.
The leak had lasting consequences. Macusa was forced to change the location of its headquarters because the original location attracted a lot of Muggle attention. At the same time, the Magical Congress also received a stern warning from the International Federation of Wizards. Rappaport was also forced to tell the International Confederation of Wizards at a public inquiry that he was not sure he had erased the memories of everyone who had knowledge of Dorcas' leaks.
To prevent something like this from happening again, Emily Rappaport enacted Rappaport's Laws in 1790.
This law was intended to completely separate No-Maj and wizarding societies. This law prohibits wizards and witches from befriending or marrying No-Majs, and imposes heavy penalties on wizards who get too close to No-Majs. Contact between wizards and Muggles is limited to communications necessary for daily life.
It also stipulates that only young wizards over the age of seventeen are eligible to carry wands.
The impact of Rappaport's law was enormous. This law pushed the entire magical society into more secretive underground activities, further deepening the cultural differences between American and European magical societies. In Europe, there has always been a certain degree of secret cooperation and liaison between magic and the No-Maj government, but in America, Macusa operates completely independently of the No-Maj government. Wizards in Europe can make friends with and marry No-Majs, but in America, wizards are increasingly hostile to No-Majs.
After Lucas came to power, because of everyone's disregard, he directly canceled the law and let everyone know his rights. Later, because of those people's rudeness to him, Lucas approached Hoover again. Director, and then reached a certain degree of cooperation with them.
The first clause of this cooperation is that neither party can admit that they are in contact with the other party's government roommate, and then the Bureau of Investigation is obliged to tie up some matters in the magical world, mainly the young wizards recruited by Ilvermorny Magic School. In a modern society with increasingly complete information, if a child disappears from society from time to time and does not go to school, it will attract certain attention.
Especially among these children, there may be descendants of powerful people. At this time, the Investigation Bureau needs to finish the work. However, the Investigation Bureau also obtained a lot of magic potions from Lucas, allowing many of their people to They have received benefits, so to a certain extent they are equal, and it is not that the Investigation Bureau is blindly trying to please the magical world.
Every time Lucas was about to lose power within Congress, he would go to the Bureau of Investigation, and then no one would threaten his position anymore, because the wizarding world in America really didn't want to have anything to do with drinking No-Maj. .
When old Emre led people into the Magic Congress, he and everyone were saying: "You must remember not to show any superiority to others inside, and don't show the attitude of you going out to handle cases, we will This is just an exchange. After you go out, don’t talk about this place again, it doesn’t exist.”
Old Emre had no idea that he had stepped into a trap.
