Chapter 338 Fulfilling the Promise
Chapter 338 Fulfilling the Promise
"I understand." Susan was about to leave, but she asked in a mysterious way: "Do you have any other orders?"
"No more," Xie Lin shook his head slightly and said softly: "Go and do your work, and don't forget to rest and take care of your body. The information of Mianlong Society is far less important to me than your health."
Susan's face turned red, but she didn't say anything. She just nodded quickly and walked away quickly.
As Susan left, the members of the Longmu team also followed, and the scene suddenly became quiet.
Schelling turned to look at Joanna Derwent and said softly: "Jo, the layout of our intelligence network is almost complete - only St. Mungo's Hospital of Magic is left. Although my father is one of the directors of the hospital's board of directors, , but he has always been responsible for donating money and knows nothing about the management inside... I don’t have any talents who can help me penetrate into St. Mungo’s. Principal Derwent, can you help me persuade her? "
"President, I...I actually..." Joanna couldn't help but feel a little nervous when she heard Xie Lin calling her by her nickname affectionately, "I have actually told the ancestor portrait, she knows our situation, but Hogg There seems to be some kind of contract magic in Principal Watts' office - every principal since the founding of the school has agreed to the conditions of the contract when they were sworn in - they are obliged to serve the current principal. "
"I understand this," Sherling then asked: "So is it possible for her to deliver news from St. Mungo's to both Dumbledore and us at the same time?"
"This is difficult..." Joanna said with some guilt: "She also has a rough idea of the situation of Sleeping Dragon Society - of course, she promised me to keep it a secret, and not even Professor Dumbledore would tell - mainly , she doesn’t want to get between us and Dumbledore, you know...sooner or later we will have a conflict with the principal..."
"Understood," Xie Lin nodded, "I'm not the type to force others into difficult situations. I'll think of another way to deal with the St. Mungo Intelligence Network!"
Since Xie Lin founded Mianlong Society, he has been making allies for Mianlong Society. In his network, there are potion masters, divination masters, herbal masters, and alchemy masters, but there are no therapists. .
This is why his influence has been unable to penetrate into St. Mungo's.
Since Principal Derwent refused to help and had no connections in the field of therapists, he had to find a new way.
Who says only therapists can stay at St. Mungo's?
So can patients!
Especially long-term patients who must live in the hospital for a long time!
And Xie Lin happened to know two such patients!
The innocent face of Neville Longbottom flashed through Xie Lin's mind, and he sighed inwardly, I'm really sorry, Neville——
Then, Xie Lin turned to look at Daphne, who had been waiting beside her, and said softly: "Daphne, has there been any news from Dobby and the other elves?"
In addition to being the leader of the Dragon Head Team, Daphne also serves as Xie Lin's personal assistant. All information sent to Xie Lin from outsiders must be processed by Daphne, and it is Dobby who is responsible for delivering letters or oral messages. A task force of house-elf errands.
Generally speaking, if it was just a small or medium-sized family like Wankanda or Warrington who wanted to express their willingness to attach themselves to Schelling, Daphne would usually just handle it herself.
Only the Holy 28 pure-blood family, or families like Runcorn and McLaggen, who have high authority and real power in magic, are qualified to meet Schelling.
"That was a week ago. I saw that you had been busy preparing for the last event of the Triwizard Tournament, so I didn't tell you -" Daphne replied: "Dobby said, Gulana Cropat La brings you good news. The Medieval Wizards Association has made a breakthrough in cracking the alchemy lock. It is estimated that the unlocking can be completed within one to two months-" It will take another one or two months, although it is longer than Schelling expected. It took a little longer, but it was still within the acceptable range.
"As for Durmstrang, Principal Karkaroff and Miss Hohenheim both urged Dobby to send several urgent messages, saying they wanted to meet with you privately." Daphne said with a half-smile.
Karkaroff's reason for finding himself is obvious.
He just wants to seek his own shelter, such as a safe house protected by the Red Loyalty Charm to hide.
Karkaroff can become the principal of one of the three major magic schools in Europe, and his overall combat ability cannot be worse than the four principals of Hogwarts.
However, he himself did not do much research on magic spells that were not used in combat - in the original book, he did not cast the Fidelity Charm, but chose to hide in an unknown cabin in the north, hoping that Voldemort would not chase him. If he didn't let go, he would eventually be brutally murdered.
The reason why he made such an unwise choice was that he could not find a trustworthy secret keeper due to his selfish nature, and with his level of spells, he was unable to perform the high-level application of the Loyalty Charm. Just make yourself the secret keeper and hide in a place of secrecy.
It can be seen from this that the study of magic should still focus on comprehensiveness and practicality. It is not advisable to immerse yourself in magic for combat.
Xie Lin certainly knows the Loyalty Charm. The two of them had made an "unbreakable contract" in Snape's potions classroom, asking Schelling to ensure Karkaroff's safety. Schelling's suggestion at that time was the Fidelity Charm.
But now Schelling has changed his mind.
First of all, Voldemort is now a veritable commander-in-chief. He can't spare the manpower and time to deal with Karkaroff - yes, Karkaroff's betrayal made Voldemort very angry, but with Karkaroff In terms of identity, strength, and importance, it cannot become Voldemort's priority in any case.
Furthermore, Xie Lin's knowledge of curse magic is enough to be called the best in the world.
He has learned the knowledge from "Advanced Black Magic Revealed" and "The Curse of Abatail Volume Three", successfully sealed Astoria's blood curse, and also successfully cracked Sulf's blood curse, and even more He successfully extracted Gorgon's curse and created the "Mark of the Sleeping Dragon" on his own.
He had absolute confidence that he could remove the Dark Mark planted by Voldemort on Karkaroff.
In this case, if Voldemort wants to find Karkaroff, he will first have to spend a lot of effort. After all, the location of Durmstrang itself is one of the biggest secrets in the wizarding world. Coupled with the special geographical environment of Northern Europe, he can use There simply aren’t many places to hide.
Karkaroff can continue to stay in Turmstrang as his principal and become one of Schelling's available combat forces.
It would be a waste to leave an elite Auror wizard unused in a safe house.
There is a magical contract between Karkaroff and Schelling, and Schelling must meet him as soon as possible to complete the oath.
