Chapter 1796 A War Without a Winner (Two Hundred and Forty-Eight)

Chapter 1798 A war without a winner (two hundred and forty-eight)

Deep in a secret underground cave somewhere in England, there is a goblin village whose exact location is known only to goblins. A secret meeting composed of a small number of high-ranking members of the goblin clan was quietly held in this hidden place.

"We have no retreat..."

The leader of the Goblin Brotherhood, Cross-Eyed Bodrick, is giving his side of the conflict.

"No, we shouldn't start this damn war. It will cause heavy losses to our few tribesmen."

Bodrick's views are obviously not shared by all the goblins. As a member of the moderate faction, Legnak hates letting the goblins fall into a meaningless war.

Not only because the war with wizards requires dead goblins, but also because they failed miserably the first two times, so this time will probably not be an exception.

However, unlike the previous two "Goblin Wars", this time the Minister of Magic, Kingsley Shacklebolt, is very ambitious. Once the goblins are defeated, not only will they lose a large number of people because of the war, but Gringotts will also need to fight in some areas. concessions to the magical world.

That would cause the goblins to lose a lot of authority and credibility, which is definitely something the goblins don't want to see.

Therefore, Legnac believes that instead of launching an unwinnable war, it is better to use the good cards in the hands of the goblins to negotiate with the Ministry of Magic, so as to ease the conflicts between the two parties and preserve the current interests of the goblins.

However, the radical Goblin Brotherhood obviously doesn't think so. As one of the conveners of this meeting, Cross-Eyed Bodrick believes that weakness can only lead to oppression, and he is telling all the goblins about the big trouble they will encounter next.

"I suggest you give up those unrealistic illusions. We have been dealing with wizards for so many years. All fairies know very well how arrogant wizards are. Compromising blindly cannot get us what we want."

Cross-eyed Bodrick's speech gained him support from the other goblins.

"According to the latest news, the Ministry of Magic's tolerance of us has reached its limit, especially after the wizard named Albert Anderson left the UK. They can't wait to launch a full-scale war against us, so Len Gnak, do you want us to die enduring the indignity of the wizard?"

"This is really ridiculous Bo Derek. You should know very well that the British wizards have just ended the second wizarding war. They never want another war to happen again, and it is unlikely that we are wizards..."

Before Legnac could finish speaking, he was betrayed by other goblins.

Yes, the unlucky Legnarc was killed by his colleagues using goblin magic.

Before dying, Legnac never imagined that he would die at the hands of his colleagues.

"I'm sorry about that!"

Bodrick put away his old wand and said calmly: "A wizard from the Ministry of Magic tried to prevent peace and murdered poor Legnarc."

What is shocking is that this kind of lying with open eyes was actually recognized by the majority of goblins. Even after all the goblins present hypocritically stated that they should avenge Legnac, they quietly brought the topic back again.

"I can actually understand Legnac, but..."

"Okay Bodrick, let's get down to business!"

Bo Derek's speech was interrupted by other goblins around him.

"If we are willing to pay the price for an all-out war with British wizards, what can we gain from it?" a senior Gringotts official asked.

This is the main reason why this group of goblins gathered here today, so Legnac, a moderate who opposed the war with wizards, died not unjustly at all! "

"I'm afraid we'll have a hard time, no, we won't be able to get anything we want from the wizard."

Bo Derek glanced at the other person and told the truth.

"Are you kidding me?"

All the goblins glared at Bodrick. Who would start a war without profit or benefit?

Is your brain broken?

This is the biggest problem.

"You're kidding, no, I'm not kidding."

Bodrick glanced at the other goblins present and said calmly, "The reason why the Goblin Brotherhood was established is to try to speak out for the goblins through other channels and help our family fight for more rights from wizards."

There is no mistake, every song is released and the content is read one by one!

"Bodrick, we're not here to talk to you about this," an old goblin screamed.

"No, just to talk about it." Bo Derek said coldly, "Ever since Voldemort's reign, the situation of the goblins has become more and more embarrassing. Look at that damn Kingsley Shacklebolt. He actually plans to follow Voldemort's example and invade Gringotts' interests."

When talking about this matter, the other goblins stopped talking.

"Once we give in weakly, the wizards will push us further again and again." Bo Derek looked around at everyone present and sneered: "You know, there are always some wizards who regard us as lowly creatures, even Plans to enslave us like house elves."

"That's enough, Bodrick, you know we don't want to hear this." One of the goblins snapped.

"If you don't listen, there will be others." Bo Derek paused and said in a fanatical tone, "I will use this excuse to convince other goblins. I believe no goblin would want the goblins to gradually become pathetic domestic animals. The elf was enslaved by the wizard."

Although this is a bit exaggerated, it is true in most cases. They must resist and let all wizards know that goblins are not easy to mess with. Otherwise, with the greed of wizards, those guys will never give up after infringing on the interests of Gringotts.

"Don't try to change the subject, Bodrick!" An old wizard glared at Bodrick.

"How about sharing the secrets and usage rights of wizards' wands?" Bodrick brought up the excuses of the first two goblin wars.

In fact, goblins have been secretly researching wands suitable for goblins, but the technology of making wands is relatively ordinary, far inferior to that of professional wand maker Garrick Ollivander, and they cannot be used openly.

"We have no chance of defeating wizards. Even if we can do it, other wizards will not allow this to happen." An old goblin suddenly said.

"I know, I have never thought about defeating the British Ministry of Magic. We just need to... make wizards bow to us." Bodrick told other goblins about his next plan.

The situation among the wizards is also not peaceful. What Bodrick wants to do is to use this opportunity to detonate the time bomb behind the British wizards, making them attacked from all sides. He also wants to use this opportunity to inflict harm on them, forcing them to compromise with the goblins in order to gain greater benefits for the goblins.
