Sword and Magic and Taxi

John Ronald Riel Tolkien, under the pen name of JR Tolkien, is a well-known writer and linguist, poet and university professor. He is famous for his literary works such as "The Hobbit", "Lord of the Rings", and "Scarlet of the Rings".

In just an instant, Zhao Mai really felt a sense of chaos in time and space. At the time of his birth, Tolkien had passed away. Zhao Mai had read Tolkien's works in his youth and watched films adapted from his works, and now he has to face him. Zhao Mai was extremely excited, and despite his efforts to suppress it, his fingers still tremble.

Grindelwald's attention has always been on Zhao Mai, paying particular attention to the movements of his hands-hands are tools for casting spells, and magic can write beautiful chapters through fingers. The slight shake made him keenly catch it. Although I don't know what this action represents, Grindelwald believes he can always figure it out.

Tolkien was a thin young man with the perseverance of a soldier and the feelings of a poet at the same time, which made him simple and tough, but there was always a trace of sorrow in his eyes. "Apologize again, I'm late. The place you chose is too close to the front line. If you didn't just know the commander, I might be detained."

"It should be us who said sorry." Grindelwald said on behalf of everyone: "Because some wizards stupidly insist that we can't use magic to go to the UK, and even if we enter the country, we may be deported, so we can only let you over. But. We believe that this is very necessary."

Tolkien nodded: "This **** war has actually entered its fourth year. If I can help end it, I am willing to do my part!"

It turned out that it was 1918, and Zhao Mai finally got this information. The First World War will end in this year. This so-called "war to end all wars" will ultimately bring endless suffering and the Second World War. Zhao Mai suddenly had a thought, and it lingered after it appeared: If Middle-earth (the world of "Lord of the Rings") existed, how did Tolkien write books and novels? What inspired his inspiration and what was the process like? Did the chicken or the egg come first?

If you can figure out this problem, it will definitely help you choose how to travel in the future.

Tolkien moved the shoulder bag behind him to his chest and took out a stack of documents. "There are all the relevant records I can find. Most of them are in Old English, and some are in Germanic languages. I'm not sure if I translated them correctly. After all, some of them may be spells, and I can't tell them."

Grindelwald hurried forward and took the manuscript from Tolkien with both hands: "Thank you very much. I always think that looking back at history is very useful for us to understand the present and look forward to the future. Come, please sit down. Now that everyone is here. , I will give you a formal introduction."

The brown-haired young man Ruggiero Espicito is from Italy, and the other three young people are French natives. One of them is the current owner of the Blackberry Manor, Henry Abel Legoff. He appeared quite calm, kept silent all the time, and seemed not ready to express any opinions. The wizards just nodded their heads and stroked their chests, and when Zhao Mai reached out to Tolkien, Tolkien was visibly stunned.

He held Zhao Mai's hand and asked in a puzzled tone: "Aren't you a wizard?"

"Oh, no." Zhao Mai shook his hands vigorously: "I'm just a traveler passing by. Mr. Grindelwald just wanted to introduce me to the magic school."

"The car outside is yours?" After getting a definite answer, Tolkien's eyes suddenly burst into light: "Your car is so beautiful! Can you tell me what the words above mean? It should be Chinese?"

"It's indeed Chinese." Zhao Mai tried his best to stay calm and said with a smile: "Old words have ancient power, so I like to arrange some of these words around. As Grindelwald said, we should check Looking to the future in the past."

"I thought you Chinese were all stubborn savages. Today my impression has finally changed." Daniel Conrad said casually with his legs folded, "But you are still too lack of wise men. But now that you have joined the Allied Powers, you might as well learn more from us."

"Magic, learn magic." Grindelwald immediately said in an interface: "Magic can increase knowledge and wisdom, can help your homeland, and can also help all mankind! I personally think that the Muggles' war started only in A waste of life. I think Tolkien has a special experience. As far as I know, you participated in the Battle of the Somme? Is that the name?"

Tolkien nodded, and then fell into painful memories: "The Somme... I can only think of one word to describe what happened there: hell. How can life be sacrificed to that extent, measured in inches? If it weren’t for injuries and trench fever, I should have become a certain inch with my friends.”

"Yes, an illness ended Tolkien's war, and therefore saved our friend, allowing him to return to England fortunately. I propose a drink for the health of my friend." Grindelwald waved his magic wand in A cup was placed in front of everyone, and then a tray holding various wine bottles flew over and stopped in front of everyone in turn. Zhao Mai followed Tolkien to choose Scotch whiskey, took a sip and put it down.

"The stupidity of this war is that it is not for human progress, but a product of greed and arrogance. It will only cause more and more sacrifices. We must stay awake and act to end this catastrophe." Grindelwald said to Tolkien: "I thank you very much for your help and support. These manuscripts will definitely work. I have prepared a letter of recommendation and the door of Hogwarts is open to you."

"Oh, you are going to Hogwarts?" Zhao Mai rolled his eyes: "Then I will choose to go there too. I have never been to the UK, but there is at least a tour guide now, right?"

"I live in the UK~www.NovelMTL.com~ but I have never been to Hogwarts, I am afraid I can't help you much." Tolkien said: "Are you going to learn magic? Eastern descent too Can you use magic?"

"Magic is the treasure of all mankind. Why can't Eastern blood be? The search for the wizard spell also shows that Mike has the potential of a wizard." Grindelwald will always be the focus of the conversation. He said: "Muggle this The Second World War became a world war. China participated in this year, and we also met Mike Longhou. I think this is the guide of our destiny! We must be able to accomplish a great cause!"

Everyone raised their glasses, so did Zhao Mai, but he was madly complaining in his heart. The last thing he needs now is to do a big business. There are eight transcendents on earth, and Zhao Mai doesn't want to attract their attention at all. The old man promised him that no one would pay attention to him, but Zhao Mai didn't want to get close to the minefield even the slightest!

He can't return to his country, Europe is in a mess again, and war is still the main theme this year. Colonies around the world are either fighting or about to fight. So there are not many choices before Zhao Mai: either go to the wizarding world, such as Hogwarts; or cross the Atlantic Ocean and go to America to avoid war.

Well, Zhao Mai admits that compared to Hogwarts, America's attraction to him is zero. (To be continued.)
