Chapter 723 ROUND II
The town of Quibble, near the village of Otley-St. Catchpole, Devon.
Compared with the lively scenes in the usual days, this house surrounding Lovegood’s house, or the wizard’s settlement centered on the headquarters of “The Devil”, is extremely rare today to appear deserted.
Except for a few personnel stationed nearby to maintain basic protection, most of the personnel had followed the Huberian jump to the outskirts of Moscow thousands of kilometers away, preparing to perform their respective tasks.
In the office of the editor-in-chief of “The Contradictory”, Xenofilius Lovegood looked seriously at the movement not far away from thousands of miles away, as a member of the [SCP Foundation] O5 Council , The plan to release [Special Containment Item-017] at the Russian branch of the Gringotts Wizarding Bank was jointly formulated by him and Elena.
“With [Special Containment Item-017], as long as we can complete the evacuation work as soon as possible after the unblocking is completed, the success rate of this plan can be said to be almost 100%. For a long time, the International Wizarding Federation and The U.S. has no time to follow us.”
Xenofilius shook the quill in his hand and said confidently.
“Yes, the long-lost black demon reappears in the magic world, intending to destroy peace—”
The old goblin Leos, who served as the chief advisor of the Foundation, gave a light sigh and grinned.
“Whether it is to the Ministry of Magic or the International Wizarding Federation, this is very shocking news. Everyone knows how to choose-the traitors in the Americas are too immature, but they are a group of people who have never seen it before. The blood salesman…”
Slandering each other for colluding with the dark forces is arguably the most common way to attack each other.
Since the Gringotts Wizarding Bank chose to take the lead in launching a public opinion offensive, it would naturally not be defenseless against the counterattacks of the American fairies.
In fact, the reason why Gringotts Wizarding Bank took the first step was to completely muddy the water and let the situation fall into the pointless phase of a dog-biting war of words. In this way, it is difficult for the American goblin who has lost the first-hand advantage to use this handle. Go to the Gringotts.
The American goblin naturally knew the plans of the Gringotts Wizarding Bank.
But unless they are willing to give up all their businesses in Europe, they will have to fight back based on the statements of Gringotts Wizarding Bank, even if they seem to be throwing dirty water at each other.
In the magical world, it is not illegal to provide financial services to dark wizards.
Whether it is the Gringotts Wizarding Bank or the newly established “Magic Federal Reserve” theoretically, there is no reason or position to refuse to provide financial services to wizards.
For the International Federation of Wizards and the Ministry of Magic of various countries, they do not care whether the dark forces that the two goblins identify as colluding with each other are Gellert Grindelwald or Voldemort.
It’s just a group of greedy goblins competing for Jin Jialong’s bite. In essence, it is no different from some gossips—false news, next.
It is impossible for the magical government to be shocked all day for a vague rumor.
Unless… a certain dark lord appears swaggeringly on the streets of the magic world, just like wandering in his garden, openly creating panic and chaos in the magic world.
…………
Diagon Alley, London, England.
On the winding streets paved with cobblestones, the young devil is patrolling his territory while acting as a travel guide for his future junior school girl.
“Oh, Irina, you need to start changing your habits now…”
Elena shook her finger and smiled unpredictably.
“The times have changed. In the magic world, there will only be fewer and fewer occasions for using cash-when you enroll and complete the sorting ceremony, you will get your own MID, which is the magic identification number, at least Jiaoxiang MID payment is much easier to use than Jin Jialong…”
They just got out of the fireplace of the Gringotts Wizarding Bank, standing on the sunny street outside the Gringotts with their hands empty, preparing to purchase school supplies according to the enrollment list.
And not far from them, stood a capable middle-aged fairy.
Just a few minutes ago, the “fairy salesman” named Douglas just opened a bank account exclusively for Irina Ivanovich, and helped her carry it with her to prepare to purchase school supplies. The British pound and gold plus long were all deposited into the account.
As a “special benefit” for opening an account for the first time, this kind Mr. Douglas will accompany them to purchase supplies in Diagon Alley for the next half day.
Compared to holding a press conference, it is obviously more important to ensure that the Queen will not get lost…
“But, Irene… Sister Kaslana, I mean Professor Kaslana, in case there is a shop that only accepts Jin Jialong, if you don’t keep some cash, wouldn’t it be…”
Irina Ivanovich looked at the girl who was as tall as her and changed several names back and forth with a little hesitation before asking in a soft voice.
Apart from her father, Irina hasn’t come into contact with many other wizards.
Most of the knowledge about the magic world comes from the descriptions of grandpa and father.
Ever since she mustered up the courage to cross the Floo network and arrive at the steel room named “Huberian-No. 7 Reactor”, everything in the magical world seems to have become strange.
“Elena, just call me Elena…”
Glancing at Irina Ivanovic who was a little nervous and cramped, Elena smiled, raised her hand and patted the girl’s head, and said contentedly.
“To be precise, I am not a few years older than you… Besides, I am not an official main course professor, just a part-time teaching assistant in Potions and Defense Against the Dark Arts.”
“As for refusing to use MID quick payment…”
Elena paused for a while, a look of inscrutableness flashed in her eyes.
“Trust me, most of these shops that lack market acumen have been forced to close down or move to other places to open stores six months ago due to poor management.”
“Huh! The book is completely different. Dad will be surprised if he knows it!”
Irina looked around at the surrounding shops and nodded seemingly.
“Among Hogwarts, is it possible for a minor wizard to be a professor?”
“Of course, as long as you are good enough.”
Elena smiled and nodded, glanced at Irina, and said meaningfully.
“Whether it is the prefect, the chairman of the student council, or the representative of each subject, or even part-time professors, substitute professors, these are all possible in Hogwarts…”
Perhaps because of malnutrition since childhood, Irina is even thinner than Elena, who just started school, and her shriveled body is not enough even if she is stuffed with a reserve of food.
However, Elena will not be deceived by Irina’s expression at this time.
Except for Luna Lovegood, who is naturally confused and optimistic, Elena has never thought that a little witch of the same age would be so calm on the Huberian.
Even if the little witch from Russia did not see the full picture of the Huberian, when facing a strange environment alone, Irina Ivanovich showed a lot more calmness than Elena All the children I have seen.
In a similar situation, Irina is not the only one at Hogwarts this year.
After gathering the top wizards and scholars in the world of magic and science, and recalling some outstanding graduates on a small scale, there is no shortage of geniuses in Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry today. The talent is not here. The most important factor…
If you only have talent, it’s not worth Hogwarts risking an exceptional admission.
There are not many little wizards in this world who have magical abilities, but there are not many children who are eager to explore their own potential and have strong will and clear goals.
Hogwarts, or the general environment of the British magic world is too stable.
If you want to bring the magic world to life again, you need to continuously add catfish to the water, and Irina Ivanovich is undoubtedly the cutest little catfish.
“If you have any questions, we can discuss it slowly later, don’t worry. As for now, let me see… magic wands, books, instruments, wizard robes… There are many things to buy today.”
Elena glanced at the food reserve on Irina’s chest with satisfaction and smiled slightly.
“Let’s go, let’s buy you a uniform first…”
…………
At the same time, a magic street in the center of Russia.
boom!
The air is full of dust.
Green and red lights flew in the middle of the street. The asphalt and slate streets had just suffered a terrible attack, and countless wizards screamed, shoved and surged out.
Guidro Lockhart swiftly waved his magic wand, directing the half-broken wooden door to float, blocking the oncoming spell beam, and the crimson spell hit the broken wooden door with a thud It was blown into four or five pieces of different sizes.
Not far away, four or five fairy guards were lying in the ruins, unconscious.
On the street more than ten meters away from Lockhart, dozens of wizards hidden behind their hoods and masks laughed brazenly, waving their wands widely, and dark purple flames continued to dash in the air. , Hitting the surrounding streets, street lights, and shop doors.
“Who are you! Stop it! I will never allow…”
Guidro Lockhart waved his wand angrily, and faint blue rays of light flew out of his wand and hit the “evil wizards”, forcing them to defend.
However, even so, Lockhart, who was weak and weak, continued to retreat.
“Fear! Shake! The great Dark Lord is back!”
Noting that the power of Lockhart’s spell began to weaken, the laughter of the black-robed men became more and more complacent and sharp. They slowly began to approach like a cat playing with a mouse.
A green cloud of smoke flew towards the sky quickly.
Then, in just a few seconds, it enveloped a small half block-it was a huge skull, and a large python emerged from the skull’s mouth like a tongue.
And behind them, a cloud of black smoke gradually condensed into a human form.
Along with the voice of the black-robed man, a pale face first appeared in mid-air.
It was a hideous and terrifying face that most wizards had never seen before. The color was even paler than that of a skeleton. The red eyes glowed. Below were two slender nostrils like snakes. The only strange thing was, There seemed to be a trace of dazedness on this face.
A cold and sharp voice said in the smoke.
“Who is calling the great Dark Lord——”
At this moment, some people among the crowd who had fled, pushed, and screamed in a hurry, suddenly stopped and turned slightly to face the demon shadow that was making a sound.
The wands were drawn out from all sides, from under the cloak, from the sleeves, from the newspaper, from the belt… each wand pointed at the dark shadow in the air.
“Powerful blasting!” dozens of voices roared at the same time.
Rumble–
The dazzling explosion light almost enveloped the entire block.
As if a strong wind swept through, countless burning red lights shot out from the wizards’ wands, intertwined, collided, and burst into deafening sounds in mid-air.
“Damn it, it’s the Auror of the Russian Ministry of Magic!”
Amid the deafening roar, a certain black-robed man with a loud voice yelled aloud cursingly, and then a series of popping air bursts sounded in the air.
A few seconds later, more than thirty wizards descended from the sky and appeared in the block.
“Stop them!” shouted an angry voice, “stop them! Don’t let these **** **** run away! I’m going to catch them all, and feed all the dementors!”
It’s just that as the dust disperses…
In the empty, dilapidated street ruins, there is no longer a figure in a black robe.
There was only an ugly ring with black jewels left, and not far from the ring, the cruel wizard who was constantly twisting and gradually returning to his human form with a twisted face.
Among his long, thin fingers like a few dry branches, a trembling wand showed the anger in the heart of the most terrifying dark lord so far in the magical world.
“Voldemort–or rather…Tom Riddle?”
Among the group of wizards who arrived later, “Newt Scamander” walked out of the crowd and looked at the young junior floating in mid-air, with a hint of contempt in his eyes.
“I didn’t expect that you were really doing the trick. It seems that the fairies are not all lying…”
Is this the so-called Horcrux… It’s a sad guy…
Voldemort’s red pupils shrank sharply like a snake, UU reading www. uukanshu.com ignored the ministers of magic around him, turned his head slowly, and looked at the old wizard not far away who dared to call him by this name with a look of disgust.
No one has ever dared to tease the great Voldemort like this–except Dumbledore.
The next moment, before everyone recovered, “Voldemort’s phantom” suddenly raised his arm without warning and nodded towards “Newt Scamander”.
A green light shot from Voldemort’s wand.
“Killing Curse!”
“Really… nothing new and creative…”
“Newt Scamander” couldn’t help yawning and looked at the oncoming green light calmly. He didn’t even move his fingers, as if he didn’t intend to pull out his wand for protection.
In the next second, a huge figure appeared in front of him, blocking the curse just right.
“Wow!?”
“Wang!”
“Wang!”
A terrifying behemoth full of blue flames appeared on the street, and three hideous heads swayed from side to side, looking down at the black “little” in front of him.
call–
The six eyes of the three-headed **** dog turned, and gently spewed out a few groups of sniffles surrounding the flames, breaking the strange tranquility.
“I will leave it to you next, Lu Wei.”
“Newt Scamander” did not appreciate the ugliness of the Ministry of Magic officials who fled around in a panic, waved his hand, and said casually.
“Don’t let this guy run away—”
