Chapter 308 Moody is rescued
This time even Fudge realized something was wrong - plants from ancient times appeared in Hogwarts, and what did it mean?
"Dumbledore..." Fudge said with a trembling voice: "What they said can't be true, right? How is it possible? How can plants from ancient times still appear now?" He laughed a few times, " You're all kidding, right? I have to say, this isn't funny at all..."
Dumbledore ignored Fudge's reaction and continued to ask: "Other than that? What other discoveries have you made, Filius?"
Flitwick said: "In the center of the venue, it seems that a battle broke out between two wizards..."
"What do you mean..." McGonagall has already guessed what Flitwick meant. Since Miss Monroe and Miss Hohenheim were eliminated early, the only ones who can start a war in the maze are Schelling and Moody. As for Harry was automatically ignored by her.
What's more, Harry didn't mention this matter at all just now, and with his strength, even if he participated in it, he would not be qualified to be called a "big war" by Flitwick.
"Well, it should be a duel between Malfoy and Moody..." Flitwick recalled the curse tracks and various footprints revealed by the tracking spell, and said softly: "Moody should have struck first, I detected it , there are at least ten... no, there should be more than twenty attack spells, and most of them are dangerous magic that can be fatal... I can be sure that he cast the spell with the mentality of wanting to kill the opponent..."
"How could it be?" Fudge couldn't figure it out. Although the Malfoy family, as a faction that supports pure-blood supremacy, has always been at odds with Moody, who was an Auror, Moody is an adult, and as a professor, he faces It is unreasonable to choose to deal harshly or even fatally to one's own student, and he is an underage wizard, even if there is any conflict between the two.
Everyone ignored Fudge's question.
Flitwick frowned, as if he couldn't figure it out, "The strange thing is that Moody's attacks were scattered and cast spells in all directions. According to the results of my investigation, almost all the attacks ended up landing on the hedge... ...Since there is only one opponent, it can only mean..." Flitwick pondered, and came up with a conclusion that even he found unbelievable, "Moody can't see Malfoy?"
"This is impossible!" Not only Fudge, but also Mag agreed with this. They all knew what level of alchemical equipment Moody's alchemical eye was. Even the Disguise Charm at the elite Auror level could not hide his body in front of him, let alone the Disguise Charm cast by an underage wizard.
"Actually, this is not a strange thing..." Dumbledore spoke up, "Shellin knows many magics that even I don't know about, such as the human transfiguration technique he used in the last project... He insisted on It makes sense to say that he knows some kind of magical invisibility magic..."
"Even so," Mag said anxiously, "then why did all Moody's attacks fail in the end?"
Before Dumbledore could explain, Flitwick took the lead and said: "I probably guessed it... Malfoy is in the sky... because I saw traces of the wand being blown up... and reasoning backwards based on the angle of the explosion, this The explosive spell must have come from above... In other words, Malfoy knows how to fly without weapons?"
Flying without weapons is not a mysterious magic, it is just easy to understand but difficult to master. Everyone knows the principle, which is to cast a flying spell on one's own body, but it is very difficult to actually control it - it requires extremely fine magic control and extremely sensitive nerve reactions. A small mistake may cause tragedy. .
Therefore, few wizards have nothing to do to learn this kind of flying skill. They believe more in alchemical flying machines, such as broomsticks and blankets. In the world of wizards around the world, wizards who can master flight without weapons are almost rare. (At this time, everyone still doesn’t know that Snape actually knows how to fly without weapons)
Flitwick spread his hands and said: "That's all I can detect. After that, the two of them completely lost their traces... I can't find out where they went, nor how they broke through. Anti-Apparition prohibited the departure..."
Fudge looked at Scrimgeour, who immediately understood and took out a small conch-shaped object from his arms. It was an Auror-specific communicator, which could only be owned by the core high-level Aurors, such as Scrimgeour. Jay and his henchman Robards, and even Moody were not assigned this equipment when they were young.
Scrimgeour spoke a few strange pronunciations into the communicator, which were code words used to communicate between Aurors, and then a strange sound came from the communicator.
Scrimgeour nodded, apparently understanding the reply conveyed on the other side of the communicator, and said to Fudge: "The Portkey Curse was not detected by the Transportation Department, and the anti-Apparition ban at Hogwarts has not been broken. Signs." Everyone fell into deep thought, and the scene was silent for a while.
Scrimgeour was worried about Schelling's safety. He and Schelling were not just friends. They had also reached many unknown alliances of interests in private. He was very optimistic about Schelling. In his heart, once Schelling grew up, , whose achievements are comparable to Dumbledore's.
Flitwick and McGonagall were of course also worried about Sherrin, but they were thinking more about the truth behind the matter - why did Moody fight Sherrin? How did they leave Hogwarts? And what about Voldemort's resurrection that Harry just mentioned?
Fudge has not yet recovered from Grindelwald's escape from prison, and now that he has encountered this incident, what worries him is whether these things will affect his re-election - he is self-aware, and he knows very well that he is When the Minister of Magic was elected in peacetime, people valued his ability to keep the magic world running as it was, rather than his ability to deal with crises.
No matter how terrifying Grindelwald was back then, it still happened 50 years ago. His body must have aged a lot during the years of being imprisoned, and the isolation from the outside world would also make his magical knowledge and spell-casting skills unfamiliar.
As far as he knew, after Grindelwald failed, most of his followers had abandoned him, and only two of the seven core "saints" were still alive. For such a broken force to make a comeback alone is simply more unbelievable than Voldemort being killed by a baby.
What's more, this is not his only business in the British Ministry of Magic. If the sky falls, the International Federation of Wizards and the Ministry of Magic of various countries will hold it together!
(Note: Grindelwald's power is not the "Saint" Acolyte, but the "Witch Party" The Alliance. The members of the Wook Party are somewhat similar to the composition of Christianity. Grindelwald is equivalent to Christ, and the Saints are similar to the Twelve of Christ. The existence of disciples is the core team, and other members of the force can only be regarded as followers, equivalent to believers)
Dumbledore was not worried about Xie Lin's safety - aside from Xie Lin's strength, before Xie Lin left, he also took away a phoenix tail feather. Unless he was hit by the Killing Curse, if he wanted to escape, It was almost impossible to trap him.
Dumbledore, as the character with the highest IQ in the original work, has clarified the general context of the whole matter in this short period of time - this is not difficult. He has always suspected that Voldemort's power has penetrated Hogwarts, but He only focused his suspicion on Karkaroff, Bagman, and Crouch.
Now that he knew something was wrong with Moody, he immediately thought of the strange behavior of Crouch and the house elf at the Quidditch World Cup, and then remembered that there had been a commotion at Moody's house before the start of school that alerted the Muggle police...
In this way, the real Moody is not dead yet... If he is not dead, he must be hidden in Hogwarts so that Barty Jr. can get his hair to make polyjuice potion at any time...
Thinking of this, cold anger appeared on his face. He raised his wand and pointed in the direction of the castle, shouting: "Moody's storage box is coming!"
There was a whooshing sound, and a dilapidated wooden box flew quickly across the grass to Dumbledore's eyes.
Dumbledore didn't have the key, but at this moment he was eager to save people and directly used "Door Opener" to blow open all seven locks on the box.
He opened the box, and inside was a pile of spell books... He closed the box and opened it again. There were no spell books in the box anymore, but various broken looking glasses, some parchment, quills, and a silver Invisibility cloak... Dumbledore closed the box again... He repeated this six times. Finally, when he opened the lid for the seventh time, McGonagall covered her mouth and exclaimed.
There turned out to be a large pit at the bottom of the box, like a basement. There was a man lying on the floor about three meters deep, as skinny as a stick, as if he was asleep. The real Mad-Eye Moody. His wooden legs were gone, the magic eye was empty under his eyelids, and several strands of gray hair were missing.
Dumbledore climbed into the box, landed gently next to the sleeping Moody, and leaned down to look at him.
"Knocked out - under the Imperius Curse - very weak," he said. "Of course, they need to keep him alive. Hagrid, throw down the fake Moody's cloak - he's freezing. Need to Leave him to Madam Pomfrey, but his life is not in danger yet."
There are only seven saints who have appeared in the movie, namely: Veda Rocher, Ms. Carrow, Macduff, Kenraft, Shabini, Najib
