Daily Life at Hogwarts Chapter 1128: Yes, this is extortion
Chapter 1130 Yes, this is extortion
"It seems that the situation over there is not very good."
After repeatedly confirming that Voldemort had left, Dumbledore turned his head to talk to Albert, completely ignoring the fact that the other party threw the Avada Kedavra curse at Voldemort just now.
"Not too good. The reinforcements from the Death Eaters arrived first, and the number exceeded expectations. And the reinforcements from the Ministry of Magic have not yet arrived. Scrimgeour probably won't last long." Albert didn't hide it, It's not surprising that Dumbledore guessed why he was here.
We are all smart people, there is really no need to beat around the bush, it will only be annoying.
Finally, after scanning the messy battlefield around him, Dumbledore summoned Fox, the phoenix, to take the two of them to the manor.
When the two rushed over, the wedding scene was in a mess.
Even after taking Felicia, the Aurors suffered casualties in the fierce battle.
Felix Elixir can only stimulate the potential of Aurors and improve their various abilities after all, rather than make them invincible.
Thanks to the fact that they are Aurors who have experienced many battles, they have a solid foundation and outstanding abilities, otherwise there will only be more sacrifices. If they were ordinary Hogwarts students, they would probably be wiped out before Albert came back up.
At this moment, Scrimgeour is planning to lead people to retreat to the manor, waiting for Albert's reinforcements.
This is the escape route Albert left for them. Once the situation becomes uncontrollable, Albert promises to help them clean up the mess. This was also one of the reasons why Scrimgeour readily agreed. The other party almost helped them think about everything.
Before the Aurors retreated into the manor and continued to stand firm, they noticed that there were fireworks blooming above the sky, and sparks burst out like a shower, covering most of the battlefield. He covered his head and shook vigorously.
The effect of the stun spell began to take effect, and the enemies with weaker resistance staggered and fell to the ground.
The hustle and bustle of the battlefield gradually fell into silence. People looked up at the fireworks exploding in the sky, and they all realized that there was something wrong with the thing in the sky.
A vortex composed of gold and red suddenly appeared in the villa, and Albert, Dumbledore and Fox appeared in the hall out of thin air.
When they walked towards the open gate, they saw the Aurors fleeing in panic. They were retreating to the villa while defending against the crazy attacking dark wizard.
"Dumbledore!"
I don't know who screamed loudly.
"That's fake, it's a counterfeit!" a Death Eater shouted to boost morale.
Without fear, he shot a black magic at Dumbledore, which was easily caught by Dumbledore who raised his wand, and quickly counterattacked.
The whole person was blown away by the spell, and passed out directly.
Albert waved his wand, causing a large explosion in an instant, directly blowing up the enemies chasing the Aurors, and buying time for the Aurors to breathe.
However, the explosion did not stop the giants. The group of rough-skinned and thick-skinned guys resisted the explosion and waved their weapons, looking like they were about to smash an Auror into a pulp.
When the Auror instinctively dodged to the side, a spell passed over his head, cutting off the giant's arm that raised the weapon, and a lot of blood sprayed on the Auror. He rolled over, and when he got up again, he was startled by the rumble of falling to the ground around him, and the corpse of a headless giant fell nearby.
The noisy battlefield suddenly fell into a dead silence. Whether it was a dark wizard, a werewolf, a giant, or a Death Eater, they were stunned by the two people who came out of the hall.
Albert didn't care about other people's thoughts. He looked up at the sky, waved his wand to summon the patron saint, and let it drive away the dementors floating above the manor.
"That's fake, don't be fooled, besiege them, kill them with the Killing Curse!" a Death Eater yelled at the crowd, but no one paid any attention to him.
Fake?
No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look fake.
Dumbledore's appearance here basically means that the Dark Lord has been repulsed. As long as he has a normal mind, he should know that if he doesn't run now, he won't be able to run away later.
I don't know who started it. The guys who attacked the manor originally wanted to grow two legs at this moment, and ran desperately towards the periphery of the manor. They hated the group of guys who used the forbidden Apparition.
After seeing the enemy retreat, Scrimgeour couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, and shouted to the Aurors: "Catch up, don't let those **** escape, it's only one more person left."
After Scrimgeour yelled at the Aurors, he turned to Albert and Dumbledore and said, "You also come to help, it is best to keep them all, the wizarding world will usher in a long time peace."
"Cover this area with a stun spell." Albert suggested. He knew that Dumbledore probably wouldn't kill him, so he proposed a more reliable method, which is currently the most suitable solution. .
No way, whoever has too many enemies, they can't catch them at all.
Keep it all down might be a good solution!
Dumbledore nodded in agreement, which made Scrimgeour heave a sigh of relief. He was really worried that Dumbledore would not be willing to help, and he would miss this good opportunity to severely injure the mysterious man's minions, let alone catch more mysterious man's minions , the more beneficial it will be for the next appointment as the Minister of Magic.
Albert and Dumbledore raised their wands together and continuously fired stun spells towards the sky. The red spells were like bursting fireworks, and sparks burst out covering the entire manor, and the fleeing guys fell one after another. down.
"If possible, it's better to keep those giants." Scrimgeour said through gritted teeth. If it weren't for those giants, the casualties of the Ministry of Magic would never be as serious as they are now.
Albert didn't pay attention to Scrimgeour's words, he was still casting magic.
In just a few minutes, all the wizards who could resist the stun spell escaped from the manor and disappeared, and the rest all passed out.
There is no doubt that the battle is over and the Ministry of Magic is ultimately victorious.
Albert put down his wand, looked at the manor shrouded in red sparks, turned his head and said to Scrimgeour, "Okay, I have to go, I have to deal with the wedding tomorrow, I believe the Ministry of Magic can handle the matter here problem."
"Professor, don't forget about tomorrow's wedding."
Albert winked at Dumbledore, bent down to pick up a splinter of wood, turned it into a portkey, and disappeared.
"What are you going to do about it?"
Dumbledore looked at the direction Albert was leaving, and turned to Scrimgeour.
"Those vicious Death Eaters who escaped from prison, I plan to execute them on the spot in accordance with the laws of the Ministry of Magic to avoid other accidents. The remaining guys will be thrown into Azkaban Prison after being tried by the Ministry of Magic." Sk Lin Jie's voice was as cold as a piece of ice, there was no way, several Aurors died, it would be **** if he was in a good mood.
"If there is a place suspected of being controlled by the Imperius Curse, we will use veritaserum, and after confirming that he is forced to do nothing, we will make a special place in St. Mungo's Magical Injury Hospital to detain those who need treatment. Prisoner."
Dumbledore was silent, Albert's proposal to Scrimgeour was just within Dumbledore's acceptable range.
Actually, Scrimgeour wanted to kill all the **** in front of him instead of throwing them into Azkaban prison.
However, it is still necessary to go through the legal trial process, so that the authority of the Ministry of Magic can be re-established, at least when Scrimgeour is elected as the Minister of Magic, he can gain greater authority in a short period of time .
As for the excuse to kill them, Albert had already given Scrimgeour a long time ago, that is, Azkaban Prison is no longer safe, and the mysterious people may rob the prison again at any time, so it is better to just kill those vicious wizards Get rid of them directly, once and for all, lest they be released by Voldemort again.
I believe that as long as the members of the Wizengamot are sensible, they will not naively think that those scumbags should be given a chance.
The Aurors who had just experienced a tough battle also started to get busy. They first needed to confirm the casualties of their colleagues, and some Aurors needed medical treatment.
"Let me help you go to St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Injuries." Dumbledore didn't quite agree with Scrimgeour's approach, but he also knew in his heart that he couldn't persuade the other party to give up, so he found an excuse and left.
Out of sight is out of sight is the best way.
Tonks also left with Dumbledore. She needs to go to the Ministry of Magic to mobilize staff to help deal with the problems here.
As for the others, they began to clean up the battlefield, and used the stun spell on the group of fainted prisoners to ensure that they would not wake up in a short time.
"A total of eleven Death Eaters were left behind." Gadwin's depressed mood finally got better, and he reported to Scrimgeour: "Five of them are dead, four are seriously injured, and two are slightly injured."
Scrimgeour glanced at the Death Eater whose mask had been removed, and whispered his name, "August Rookwood."
The next second, Scrimgeour suddenly raised his wand and used Avada Kedavra on August Rookwood's body.
The green light of death suddenly lit up, startling all the surrounding Aurors.
"August Rookwood is dead." Kingsley quickly reminded.
"Who knows? I just need to make sure that he doesn't get up against us again." Scrimgeour said indifferently: "Come on, take off their masks and let us see who else we know .”
The surrounding Aurors looked at each other, but no one would criticize Scrimgeour's actions. One of the Aurors bent down and took off the mask of the next Death Eater.
"Antonin Dolokhov," someone exclaimed.
"This guy is still alive. His luck is really good, but his good luck seems to have come to an end here." Scrimgeour signaled the Auror to get out of the way, and gave the dying Antonin Douglas a hand. Lokhov hit Avada Kedavra.
Antonin Dolokhov, who was still breathing, belched completely.
"Next."
Caldwin glanced at Scrimgeour, bent down to take off the mask of another Death Eater, and whispered his name: "Gibbon."
Scremgeour raised his wand and said, "Another old acquaintance."
"He is dead." Kingsley reminded after checking.
"Who knows?"
"I'll do it."
Galdwin raised his wand and cast Avada Kedavra over Gibbon's corpse.
"Travers!" Kingsley said through gritted teeth as he took off the mask of the next Death Eater.
"Your acquaintance?" Scrimgeour turned his head and asked,
"He murdered the McKinnon family in the last war." Kingsley was very angry, and his relationship with McKinnon was actually pretty good.
"If you want revenge, he's going to die anyway." Scrimgeour made a gesture of invitation.
Kingsley hesitated, but raised his wand and used Avada Kedavra to kill the seriously injured Travers.
"Don't show mercy, or you will be the ones who will be killed next moment." Scrimgeour taught the Aurors around, "Don't expect your enemies to show mercy."
As he spoke, he also bent down to take off the mask of another Death Eater, and softly called out the other's name: "Lucius Malfoy, look, another old acquaintance."
"Wait for Scrimgeour." Gadwin suddenly stopped Scrimgeour from chanting a spell to kill Lucius Malfoy.
"What's wrong?" Scrimgeour asked suspiciously.
"Many colleagues were seriously injured and even died. Their families need a consolation money." Gardwin hinted.
The Ministry of Magic doesn't care about the consolation money, because the wages of Aurors are very high, and this high-risk income directly dumps the wages of most Ministry of Magic employees to the point where they can't see the tail.
Scremgeour was silent, because a total of nine fell, seven of them were killed in battle, the other two were seriously injured and unconscious, and many other Aurors were also injured.
"If the Malfoy family is willing to pay a high fine, we'd better give him a life sentence in Azkaban instead of killing him directly." Gadwin suggested.
This is actually the solution they have repeatedly discussed. The Auror Office of the Ministry of Magic actually doesn't have much money.
As long as you are smarter, you will know that being sentenced to life imprisonment in Azkaban is much better than being killed by the Aurors directly.
After all, if you go to prison, you still have a chance to come out.
It is not the first time that Voldemort has been jailed.
If you are killed directly, you won't even have a chance.
"Well, if he wants to, I don't mind." Scrimgeour hesitated for a moment, then nodded, "Before that, we need to use Veritaserum to interrogate these scumbags. Those who do evil must die .”
The conversation between the two did not shy away from the other Aurors around them, but mainly to see how they reacted.
There is no doubt that this proposal has been approved by everyone.
This is blackmail in disguise~IndoMTL.com~ In the past, even if Death Eaters were caught, they would not be killed directly.
It was actually Scrimgeour's order to kill the Death Eaters, and Gadwin was only helping them for their welfare. The family members of the Aurors who sacrificed can get a sum of compensation, and those who are seriously injured and hospitalized can get subsidies. At least the family can live comfortably.
Of course, there is another reason.
Scremgeour intends to buy Ministry of Magic employees and buy them items for defense against the dark arts. All of these need Galleons. The Ministry of Magic can provide some of them, but there must be someone to help pay for most of them. Death Eaters are a good one. They are very rich anyway, and they are allowed to spend money to save their lives, but given their special treatment, no one else has this opportunity.
Of course, this can also secure Gadwin's position as the head of the Auror's office. A leader who is willing to consider for his subordinates is always loved.
"Take off their masks and let's see if the lucky ones can escape."
Fish, how innocent.
