Daily Life at Hogwarts Chapter 1178: Rescue
After Albert returned to the suitcase, Isobel was keenly aware of the subtle changes in her husband, she reached out and grabbed Albert's hand and asked softly: "What's wrong, dear, what happened Is it?"
"Having a little trouble," Albert said lightly.
"A little trouble?" Isobel raised her eyebrows slightly, "I don't think it's a little trouble."
She really knows her husband too well, and if she really encounters a little trouble, she'll probably leave it to someone else to solve it.
"My dear, you are still as careful as ever."
Albert reached out and hugged Isobel, kissed her forehead, and reassured, "Don't worry, it's not a big deal, I'll be back soon. By the way, prepare me paella for dinner. "
Speaking, he looked over Isobel's shoulder to Katrina who was pretending to read the newspaper, "Help me take care of your sister."
"I will. When you get back, remember to bring me some pearls on the way, which may come in handy when brewing potions."
Katrina put down the newspaper and said to Albert with a smile.
"It depends."
Albert helped Isobel sit on the sofa, put the parchment given by Mrs. Daisy and Mrs. Mary on the table, and greeted Mrs. McDougall before getting ready.
"I hate this." Isobel looked at Albert's back disappearing in the doorway, and muttered softly, "He always likes to go out and take risks, it's not good."
"He's more cautious than anyone else, so don't worry, all you have to do now is give birth to the baby first, not worry about other things, my dear sister." Katrina ate an apple and said The plate was brought in front of Isobel, and he said with a smile, "Come on, you also eat an apple. The next few months will be the development period of the child in your belly. You need to exercise properly and replenish your body by the way."
"Hope these bad times come to an end soon."
"You should be well aware that someone doesn't necessarily want these bad times to end soon." Katrina ate another apple.
Yeah, Katrina is right, Albert really doesn't want this era to end like this, an era of chaos is also an era of opportunity.
After arming himself to the teeth, Albert hurried to the headquarters of the "Defense Association" to join the others.
Fred, George, Lee Jordan and Shanna are also fully armed and ready to go with Albert to rescue Cedric.
"Tell me, what's going on? I don't think Segrick was suddenly targeted by the Death Eaters!" Albert swept over the four people who were relieved to see him, Chao Shan Na cast an inquiring look.
"Half an hour ago, we received an alert from Cedric and learned from Truman that Cedric was suspected of missing. We suspected that Cedric was recruiting members when he encountered a Death Eater. The hapless man controlled by the Imperius Curse was taken away by the Death Eaters after the Defense Association was exposed."
Sanna quickly told Albert about the current situation, there was no way Cedric sent the alarm for no reason, something must have happened.
"You must have a way to find Cedric, right?"
"Well, there is a way."
Albert pulled out a crystal ball from the non-marking stretch bag to read Cedric's specific condition.
Cedric wanted to save, of course, but never acted recklessly to avoid being ambushed. Since the Ministry of Magic also began to play conspiracy, the entire magical world has become sinister.
After the fog in the crystal ball dissipated, everyone quickly saw the results they wanted to know from the crystal ball. Cedric was indeed attacked by several dark wizards. He was locked in a hall somewhere at the moment. The whole person seemed to be dying and seemed to be tortured by the Cruciatus.
The faces of the four were not very good-looking.
"Is there a way to find Cedric's location?" George asked.
"I hope he has a pocket watch with me for you!" After putting away the crystal ball, Albert took out a special map of England from the seamless stretch bag.
"I think there should be, we'll all carry it around!"
"That's good, there's a spell on that thing, and if necessary, I can lock the approximate position of the pocket watch."
Albert chanted a spell and tapped the map of Great Britain with his wand. Several red dots appeared on it, and Cedric's location was marked on the map of Great Britain.
"How could that pocket watch still work like this?"
Sanna looked at her pocket watch in surprise, thinking it was just a black magic detector.
"There are a lot of hidden functions in it, and I never told anyone else, lest it fall into the hands of Death Eaters and cause them to know the effect of the pocket watch."
"Why don't we have our names?" George asked, staring at the map, puzzled.
"A strong shielding spell has been placed here to ensure that the You-Know-Who and the Death Eaters cannot use the spell to lock us in," Albert explained.
"Are we going to rescue Cedric now?"
"No, we need to confirm how many people are there first, so as not to be ambushed after passing."
Albert takes out a piece of parchment, outlines Cedric's location on it, and uses the Footprint Charm on it to see how many people are around.
Under normal circumstances, Death Eaters will choose remote places as temporary strongholds to avoid being targeted by the Ministry of Magic.
The reason is actually very simple, the same as Albert's choice.
Out-of-the-way places, plus a shielding spell, can generally block tracking from the Ministry of Magic.
So, 80% of the people around Cedric are Death Eaters and their minions.
"Thirteen people, I think it should be the temporary stronghold of those guys." After Lee Jordan carefully counted the ink dots on the map, he looked up at Albert, "There are twice as many enemies as us. "
"Twelve, you included Cedric," George corrected.
"It's not too bad."
"Isn't that too bad?" Shanna looked up suddenly at Albert.
"At least Cedric is alive."
"Perhaps it was your advice that played a role."
George remembered Albert's advice, and now he suddenly understood why Albert wanted them to do that. The most important thing is to save your life first. As for leaking secrets, it is not a problem at all.
After all, there are two headquarters, both protected by the Fierce Loyalty Curse, so you don't have to worry about leaking secrets at all, and as for being controlled by the Imperius Curse, you don't have to worry about it.
"Life is more important. As long as you are not stupid, you will not kill people directly."
Albert waved his wand and conjured four pairs of earplugs out of thin air, "I'll let you plug your ears later, remember to do so immediately."
"Why don't I?"
Sanna is a little dissatisfied, she has realized that Albert intends to keep herself at headquarters.
"We need to stay behind. If the situation is bad, use the other emergency contact double-sided mirror I left in the safe house, which can get in touch with Dumbledore in the first place." Noting Shan The dissatisfaction on Na's face, Albert reached out and patted her shoulder and said, "Although I don't think that thing will be useful, I need someone to stay just in case, which is also a very difficult task. Help me keep an eye on the neighborhood by the way, to avoid reinforcements during the operation and we don't know anything about it."
"Okay!"
Sanna nodded reluctantly and agreed to her mission.
"I'll leave it to you then."
After speaking, Albert left the deserted village with a few people, and Apparition appeared in a wilderness.
"Where is this?"
All three are a little confused, apparently not understanding why Albert brought them here.
"Don't stay around the stronghold, it's easy to find the approximate location by scrambling, especially the door key, it's easy to be locked by someone." Albert explained, while casting illusion and shielding spells on them. Then, he took out his pocket watch from his pocket, tapped it a few times, motioned a few people to grab the chain of the pocket watch, and disappeared by the chain of the pocket watch.
After they regained their feet, they found themselves in the wilderness, ahead of a very remote Muggle hamlet.
"I think it's advisable to suggest that the Ministry of Magic inspect all the deserted villages in the UK, and maybe there will be many hidden dark wizards." George muttered. This kind of place is really not easy to spot ~IndoMTL.com~ There are dementors here. "
Albert raised his wand to be alert, feeling the freezing fog floating in the sky, frowning and reminding, "It seems that we may have run to the lair of those guys."
"What do I do now, do I need to change the plan?" George knew very well that in front of the Dementors, no matter how clever the Disillusionment Charm was meaningless.
If there is a lot of dementor activity in the area they're going to next, it means that their original plan to sneak in and take out the enemy by sneak attack may be in vain.
With three times the number of opponents on their side, attacking is definitely not a good choice. After all, they are here to save people, not to annihilate the enemy.
"According to the original plan, I don't believe that anyone would be willing to stay with Dementors." Albert calmly judged that even Death Eaters would not be willing to rely on Dementors for a long time. too close.
The three of them have no problem. If there is an accident, at most it will be a sneak attack and a strong attack. They trust Albert's strength very much.
The four cautiously moved towards the village ahead. Albert checked the enemy's location through his pocket watch. The residents of the original village were probably killed.
It wasn't hard for them to find where those people were hiding, because the group of guys didn't hide themselves, the lights were on in the biggest and most comfortable house in the village, screams of agony came from the room and the dark wizards of laughter and cursing.
Albert raised his hand to stop the three. He didn't plan to sneak in. God knows when they broke into the village, whether the enemy noticed their arrival, whether they prepared any traps and planned to smack them, and Not seeing a dementor in the village was also one of the reasons for Albert's vigilance.
