Hogwarts on the Tip of the Tongue

Armenian forest, by the swaying campfire.

Senior officials from more than a dozen different magical governments looked solemn and tried their best to digest the bad news that they had just received:

A group of unidentified dark wizards took advantage of the emptiness within the Ministry of Magic of various countries to raided the location of the Ministry of Magic.

From the alarms that came one after another, it seemed that almost all the Ministry of Magic's locations had fallen, which was something that had never happened in the magical world.

"Now the situation is clear. We are facing an indiscriminate, extremely despicable and heinous terrorist attack." Atif, the director of the Turkish Ministry of Magic, Auror, said gritted his teeth. "This is a provocation against the wizarding world of Europe. , We must fight back immediately!"

The French Minister of Magic exchanged a glance with the Italian Minister of Magic, and did not agree with Atif's words.

"It is undeniable that this is a very bad night. I even doubt that we will be ousted tomorrow. But the problem is that it may not be the worst time yet. Have you ever thought that a dozen or so Ministry of Magic can be captured at the same time? Is it possible for the mysterious powers of the United States to launch a'counterattack' to clear us away?" The French Minister of Magic looked at Fudge, and asked, turning his eyes on Atif.

"So we need to unite, rely on a certain magic government as the base camp, and concentrate our forces to fight back one by one."

Atif said in a deep voice, turning his head to look at the Armenian Minister of Magic.

"Mr. Katz, do you have any suggestions?"

Following Atif’s questioning, all the wizards present turned their eyes to the wizard standing on the edge of the crowd. Although the Armenian Ministry of Magic was the real “landlord”, as a weak Ministry of Magic, they were very concerned about this. There is not much experience in multi-national talks.

"Uh"

The Minister of Magic of Armenia, Katz, is not very comfortable with this kind of occasion.

His eyes drifted slightly for a few seconds, and finally fell on Connelly Fudge.

"Mr. Fudge, according to the current information, those'thugs' are most likely to be your British dark wizards. You have the most experience in fighting with them. What do you think of them? Those'Death Eaters', And how powerful is that'Voldemort'? And do you have any additional news about these actions tonight? What the guy named'Voldemort' wants to do when he suddenly comes back."

"Hey we don't usually say that name, we usually say'mysterious man' or'dark devil'."

Cornelius Fudge took a light breath and shook unnaturally.

He squeezed the top hat in his hands awkwardly, his expression and state looked extremely bad.

"In fact, the'mysterious man' has reappeared within a few months. This is the secret of the International Wizarding Federation. Oh, the gentlemen of the Russian Ministry of Magic also know this. He once made it in the magic shopping street in Russia. Chaos, but we are still investigating his purpose..."

"So you knew a few months ago that a very dangerous dark wizard came back and was dormant in Europe?!"

The Minister of Magic of France, Castor, squinted his eyes and asked in a bad tone.

"Why have we never heard of your hunting plan?!"

"Let me explain"

Emilia Burns pushed the monocle, and took the initiative to replace Connelly Fudge and replied:

"This is the decision made by the International Federation of Wizards and the Magic Law Enforcement Department of the Ministry of Magic of the United Kingdom, Russia, and Ukraine after reassessing the threat of the'mysterious man'. He is more dangerous than any previous Dark Lord, not just because of his strength. The most important thing is that there is reliable evidence that in the past ten years, he has produced a large number of Horcruxes...In a sense, he is now immortal."

"Therefore, before finding a way to completely kill the'mysterious man', a large-scale wanted person will only spread panic."

"Think about it, a'dark lord' who is annihilated and unkillable... the only thing we can do is to attack his party members. They are called'Death Eaters'. But from the current situation, the European'Eater The scale of the'dead man' obviously exceeds everyone's imagination."

"Oh my god, did you hide this kind of thing until now?!" The officials of the Ministry of Magic of various countries were mixed with anger.

Even if you don’t understand what Horcruxes are, but based on the "immortal body" alone, that guy named Voldemort is much more dangerous than Grindelwald, and what makes the officials of the magic government even more angry is that if not tonight The situation is out of control, and the British Ministry of Magic seems to intend to keep it hidden.

"The'mysterious man' is more cunning than you think, and at the same time more dangerous"

Cornelius Fudge explained with a wry smile, "A few months ago we accidentally caught his chief think tank, Peter Pettigrew, but the follow-up content did not dare to dig deeper... There may be many magic families standing behind him. , And even some state-level magical forces."

Fudge didn't say it very clearly, but everyone present immediately understood the concerns he wanted to express.

Just as Gellert Grindelwald wreaked havoc in the European magic world, his party members are more than just scattered wizards.

There are many veteran wizard families, and quite a few Ministry of Magic officials clearly support the Dark Lord, and from what Cornell Fudge revealed, there may even be supporters of the Magic Government as a unit...hidden in The dagger in the dark is obviously more terrifying.

Atif frowned, and after thinking for a few seconds, he asked in a deep voice.

"Isn't Albus Dumbledore responding to the question of the ‘mysterious man’?"

Connelly Fudge's face changed a few times and said:

"Actually, Dumbledore warned me before we set off, but we were... I mean, I asked Mr. Rufus Scrimgeour, the director of the Auror office, to lead a team at the Ministry of Magic! But the situation! Obviously it is much more serious than I thought before. Judging from the information I have received, the number of dark wizards who attacked the British Ministry of Magic alone is as high as 50 people..."

"Sorry, I mean leaving this aside, does Dumbledore know how to deal with that ‘immortal’ dark wizard?"

Atif raised his hand to interrupt Fudge's babbling description, and asked bluntly.

"Find all the Horcruxes, concentrate on destroying the'mysterious man' in one go." Fudge said dryly.

"Very good, that is to say there is no way." French Minister of Magic Castel raised his eyebrows.

"Ahem, gentlemen, maybe we have to solve another problem now?"

At this moment, Khaz, the Minister of Magic of Armenia, looked a little ugly, and he raised a thing in his hand and waved it.

"I just received an emergency message from our Department of Transportation that the Floo network throughout Armenia has been interrupted. In other words, not only the Armenian magic world, but all the surrounding magic worlds currently bordering on the Floo network have collapsed... There is no reinforcement. We must make a decision as soon as possible."

"By the way, there are hundreds of werewolves behind. If the troops are divided to support the Ministry of Magic, what about these werewolves?"

Burns raised his eyebrows, the monocle reflected cold light, and pointed to the werewolf behind.

"In the last Wizarding War, the werewolf army was a dark force that belonged to the mysterious people. If those dark wizards took the opportunity to rescue the werewolves when we divided our troops, what should we do? My suggestion is to stop the soldiers and wait for the Floo Net. After the repair, the werewolf problem is dealt with first. The Death Eaters cannot occupy the Ministry for a long time. The matter of retaking the Ministry is not so urgent."

"I also suggest to deal with the werewolf first." Atif nodded, thought for a few seconds, and said in agreement.

"No~www.wuxiaspot.com~We must take back the Ministry of Magic before dawn, anyway" Cornelius Fudge waved his hand extremely hard.

At the same time, several other Ministers of Magic also nodded solemnly to the British Minister of Magic.

The collapse of the Floo network meant that they split their forces and returned to their respective countries "on foot", trying to regain the Ministry of Magic.

After all, apart from the fireplace of the Ministry of Magic, the Floo network between nations is not interconnected.

The werewolf problem is indeed a hidden danger, and they also know the danger of dividing forces, but if they cannot lead the Aurors of their respective Ministry of Magic back to their respective countries before dawn, the angry and fearful people will definitely treat them as high-level people in the first place. The officials tore to pieces.

"actually……"

At this moment, Lockhart, who had been watching by the side, suddenly interjected:

"I have the best of both worlds..."

Great!
