Daily Life at Hogwarts Chapter 1194: Purpose
"Oh my God, it's getting more and more chaotic outside now!"
In a corner of the noisy Gryffindor common room, Hermione was sitting in an armchair reading the latest newspaper, while waiting for Harry and Ron to return to the dormitory.
The news in the newspapers all show one thing, the mysterious man is slaughtering Muggles recklessly, even if the Ministry of Magic wants to stop it, it is still stumbled by the mess made by the dark wizard.
For the entire Ministry of Magic, hiding the existence of the wizarding world is the first priority. As for organizing the Death Eaters to slaughter Muggles, it depends on whether they can allocate extra energy.
To make matters worse, the last wizard war lasted for eleven years before it ended, so how long will this wizard war last?
How many innocent people will die in this war?
"Hermione, we should go," Harry reminded.
"Oh, I'll come."
Hermione closed the newspaper and stood up, walking towards Harry and Ron.
"What are you looking at?" Ron asked suspiciously.
"The latest issue of the newspaper."
"I haven't watched it yet, any news?" Ron asked again.
"The mysterious man has also involved many Muggles in this war. They are being slaughtered by Death Eaters, and the situation in the wizarding world is getting worse." Hermione said in a low voice, "It is said that there are wizards Not wanting to be involved in this wizarding war and fleeing overseas, immigrating to other English-speaking countries.”
"I am now considering whether to send my family away. After all, if they are targeted by Death Eaters because of me, I mean they are just ordinary people and should not be involved in this wizard war Middle." Hermione stopped and looked at Harry standing there puzzled, "What's the matter, Harry?"
"I'm sorry, but I've troubled you." Harry said bitterly. He knew that Hermione's situation was caused by himself, but he also knew that he needed the support of Ron and Hermione.
"Don't say such things, you should still remember Albert's prophecy that Muggle wizards will also be in trouble next time, and I shouldn't implicate them." Hermione looked around to make sure that there was no one around. Then he whispered: "They have always wanted to visit Australia. I think immigrating to the Far East is a good choice. I believe that the mysterious man and the Death Eaters will not bother to search for their whereabouts."
Hermione is already planning to find a chance to make her family forget about herself, change her name and immigrate to Australia, and this kind of thing must be done as soon as possible. They disappear under their noses.
If possible, Hermione actually wants to send her family away during the Christmas holidays this year.
Just after September 19 this year, she will be considered an adult, and even if she uses magic outside, she will not be detected by Zongsi.
However, this matter is undoubtedly a very heavy topic for Hermione.
When the three of them came near the Room of Requirement, they found that many students were gathering here, and they warmly greeted the three of Harry.
When everyone entered the Room of Requirement, they found that there were already other people inside. They were surrounded by a very handsome man, and they seemed to be talking about some interesting topic.
"Thank you for coming to help, Cedric." Harry stepped forward to shake hands with the handsome man, "I thought Fred and George would come too."
"They are all busy making things to make money. I heard that the Ministry of Magic has ordered a batch of defense against the dark arts props from them." Li talked about this matter, "It seems to be prepared for the Aurors of the International Federation of Wizards. I heard that the assistance from other countries is finally coming, and will help stop the black wizards from stirring up disputes and avoid attracting the attention of Muggles. .”
This is actually a statement from the International Federation of Wizards, believing that this war should not attract the attention of Muggles, at least not to expose the existence of wizards to Muggles.
"Perhaps, the Second Wizarding War will end soon." Someone muttered softly.
"Maybe, who knows?"
"The last wizarding war lasted for eleven years, and many wizards were brutally killed. The current situation is even worse than last time." Susan Bones noticed the gazes of other people, and looked away. He curled his lips and said with a sneer, "The Burns family was the victim last time. My uncle, aunt and cousins were all killed by Death Eaters, so don't take chances, and be careful that it will affect you this time."
"Ahem, it won't hurt to learn more Defense Against the Dark Arts now!"
Cedric coughed lightly, and briefly communicated with Harry about today's class content.
The popular Harry and the handsome Cedric always attract the attention of the girls. More importantly, everyone knows that it is obviously very difficult for Harry to teach everyone here Defense Against the Dark Arts. difficult thing.
"Cedric, I heard from the professor that Dumbledore strengthened the school's defenses. How did you sneak into Hogwarts?" Ernie McMillan asked curiously.
"Quietly? No, I actually came in through the main entrance of the school." Cedric said words that were hard to distinguish between true and false, "It means that I have obtained the principal's permission to stand here."
"Oh, the principal actually allowed it."
Everyone was amazed that Dumbledore would tacitly let someone teach them Defense Against the Dark Arts skills instead of letting them learn from Defense Against the Dark Arts class.
"Is it really that bad outside?" asked another.
"It's too bad. After all, it's the Second Wizarding War. Now the minions of the Death Eaters are rampant, making troubles in the Muggle world." Cedric slapped his hands and said to everyone, "I'll just say something straight. now."
The noise in the Room of Requirement gradually quieted down until the surroundings fell into a dead silence. Cedric said, "Albert thinks we need to prepare for the future, and he persuaded Dumbledore to let me come and help Harry. Leigh teaches you Defense Against the Dark Arts, and after you graduate from school, you can consider joining the Defense Association."
He paused and continued, "Of course, it is your freedom to join or not, and no one will force you."
"Defense Association?" Susan asked, raising her hand, "Do you mean the DA meeting?"
"Yes, our Defense Association is actually similar to now, that is, it is no longer a school-like group." Cedric smiled and introduced the Defense Association to everyone, "We are a mutual aid organization that supports Harry and opposes the mysterious man. It is the same as the current DA (Defense Association) meeting, or you can think of it as an extension of the DA meeting.”
"Albert will teach you a more advanced defense against the black arts. You can think that now is laying the foundation for you."
"The members of the Defense Association will keep in touch with each other and help each other. When they encounter trouble, at least they will not be helpless. If they are targeted by Death Eaters, we will also help hide them." Cedric Made a quiet gesture and continued, "Albert thinks that in the near future, there will be a battle between Harry and the mysterious man, and it will end this war forever, and we will stand behind Harry at that time, Give him support instead of letting Harry face the You-Know-Who and his minions alone."
Everyone turned their heads to look at Harry, making Harry very embarrassed.
"Okay, our time is limited, it's best to start now. As for whether to join the Defense Association, you can wait until you finish the Ultimate Wizard Level Exam." Cedric smiled kindly at Harry Laugh, and help him out by the way.
After Cedric finished speaking, he handed over the hosting of the party to Harry, and then began to cooperate with Harry to explain to everyone how to build a safe temporary camp in the wild.
"If you want to avoid the enemy's pursuit, you must choose a remote enough camp location. As long as the enemy doesn't know where you are hiding, it will be difficult for them to find you in a short time."
Harry began to talk about his understanding of setting up a temporary camp according to the original plan, "Of course, wizards can use spells to track the whereabouts of other people, but as long as you master the means of anti-tracking, generally you don't have to worry about being found easily .”
"There is one thing that underage wizards must pay attention to, because you are still underage and carry traces on your body. Once you use magic outside the school, you will be immediately known by the Ministry of Magic. If one day the Death Eaters control the Ministry of Magic... "
"Do you think the Death Eaters will take control of the Ministry of Magic?" ( ) Colin Creevey asked, raising his hand.
"I don't know, but I want to..."
"I think the mysterious man should try to do that." Cedric immediately interrupted, "Also, don't call the mysterious man's name outside, it's easy to be targeted, because that name is given Once you use it, even if you say his name in your own safe house, the Death Eater will immediately break through all your defensive magic and appear in front of you."
"Of course, they don't dare now, but once the Ministry of Magic falls, they will do so, so even if you are not afraid of the mysterious man, don't call that name indiscriminately, because this is a bait in itself, waiting for the fish to take the bait The bait, Albert told me, is for members of the Order of the Phoenix."
The surroundings suddenly fell into a dead silence, Ron and Hermione both looked at Harry, they knew very well that Cedric's words were meant for Harry.
"Why wouldn't they dare now?" asked Susan Burns, raising her hand.
"Because the Ministry of Magic tried fishing to enforce the law." Cedric smiled and explained, "Of course, if this happens, I believe Albert must have a way, so you don't need to worry, the Ministry of Magic will not will collapse easily."
"Probably so." Harry was a little depressed, but he continued to advance today's lesson step by step, teaching everyone how to build a temporary camp.
"Invasion Curse, Shielding Curse, Shut Your Ears Curse, Illusion Curse..."
"Although these kinds of spells are not very strong defensive spells, they are relatively easy to learn. Their meanings actually make it difficult for people to find you easily. When the enemy appears near you, they can also give you Buying more time, fleeing immediately is the best choice, of course, you can find this part of knowledge in the "Guide to Self-Defense." Harry looked at the people in front of him, and solemnly reminded, "It's best not to take chances, unless You have the level of Albert who can bring down fifty Aurors alone, and you have an absolute advantage."
"At the beginning, I thought I had a good level of defense against the black arts. I was caught by a group of black wizards when I didn't escape immediately. So you better take it as a warning." Cedric reminded, "Not everyone is as lucky as me, and escaped within an hour of being caught."
"Maybe, the Sorting Hat put you in the wrong house." Harry joked, "Although the Invasion Spell can be replaced by those looking glasses or detection pocket watches, it is still a more practical spell. Detect intruders who break into the vicinity and trigger the alarm at the first time, especially when you build a camp, you can't always pay attention to whether someone appears, and something like a sight glass is easy to attract enemies. It’s not reliable.” New
After Harry began to explain the purpose of these spells to them one by one, and taught them how to use them, with Cedric's help, Harry's work became much easier.
Before the meeting ended, Cedric brought everyone together again, and kindly reminded: "I have one more thing to tell everyone, you'd better keep it secret, don't talk nonsense, think about what if you join the defense Association, it turned out that someone joined forces to let the Death Eaters know that you joined the Defense Association, and you may be approached by the Death Eaters in the near future, so confidentiality is very important, it is related to everyone's safety. "
“How much do you think they will listen to?”
After the meeting ended, Harry looked at the whispering crowd and asked Cedric. He hadn't forgotten that Hogwarts had few secrets.
"I don't know, if they talk about it, they deserve it if they get unlucky." Cedric shook his head and said, "By the way, Harry, let's continue to talk about what happened last time. Let's finish the topic!"
"Did he say anything about the opal necklace, whether Malfoy did it?" Harry asked suddenly. He is still very concerned about this matter.
"Harry, I think you should ask something important." Hermione interrupted with a frown. She really couldn't understand why Harry always thought Malfoy was a Death Eater, even if the two sides really had enmity, There is no need to slander a person like this.
()"No, we haven't contacted him for several days, maybe we have to wait for a while!" Cedric reached out and patted Harry on the shoulder, "If you have any questions, please contact him. Just ask, I'll tell you what I know."
"Will the Ministry of Magic really collapse?" Harry asked ~IndoMTL.com~ after hesitating for a moment.
"Yes, at least Albert thinks so." Cedric said affirmatively.
"But...how could it be." Ron's eyes widened, he really couldn't understand that the Ministry of Magic would collapse
"Albert thinks that the mysterious man will let Scrimgeour die." Cedric said, "If he wants to, he will definitely find an opportunity. It is almost inevitable."
"Would Dumbledore..." Harry didn't finish the sentence, but the meaning was obvious, and the atmosphere at the scene was even more dead silent.
"Albert didn't say it directly, but he seems to think that Dumbledore will lose his deterrent power against the You-Know-Who in the near future." Cedric thought about his words and said, "You don't have to ask Albert Special, he won't tell you."
"The injury, it really hasn't healed?" Harry murmured softly, "No wonder he started teaching me this year." Remember the website address of this site, www. biquxu. Com, which is convenient for reading next time, or enter "" in Baidu to enter this site
