Chapter 1066: Wake up? Take away? Hand over to the Ministry of Magic?

Using black magic to counter black magic, the silver shield was submerged by red and black beams of light in the blink of an eye.

Just as the light beam was about to penetrate the entire room, the long-barreled pistol instantly turned back into a double-snake staff, and the magical energy that was freed from its restraints was as brilliant as fireworks.

Moody quickly cast an armor charm to resist the impact.

He looked a little horrified, because he could clearly see through his magic eye that the red and black beam of light contained compressed black magic.

If it was not controlled properly, the explosion would have affected most of the staff dormitory, instead of just blowing away most of the items in the room.

After the impact, Moody walked towards the figure with a hole in the chest, holding his crutch.

Although the person is not dead, it is almost the same.

There was a fist-sized hole on the right side of his chest, and traces of scorch and corrosion covered almost the entire chest. It was a miracle that he could still breathe faintly.

There was such a loud noise that all the Ministry of Magic staff living nearby woke up.

They walked out of the room in their pajamas and were frightened by a man emitting the aura of dark magic, so they raised their wands.

If he hadn't recognized the man as Vincent, he might have cast a spell on him.

"Mr. Wayne?" A young male clerk stepped forward cautiously. "What happened? Did you cause the noise just now?"

Vincent waved his hand to dispel the aura of dark magic on him, "Nothing, Professor Moody and I have something to discuss with Mr. Bagman."

The male clerk bravely looked into the room and met Moody's magic eye.

He shuddered involuntarily, "So...so that's how it is...Then...then we won't bother you anymore."

I have to admit, Moody looked really scary when he tightened the scar on his face.

After the staff returned to their rooms, Vincent and Hermione also went into Bagman's room.

Moody did not remove the armor spell. He looked from a distance at the man in the corner of the room who had been knocked unconscious from the beginning.

He had known through his magical eyes that the second person was imprisoned, but he did not expect that this person's condition was not much better than that of the lying Death Eater.

His face looked as if the skin had been peeled off, leaving only a layer of flesh and skull. His limbs were tied tightly with iron chains that were almost embedded in the bones. The whole person was very thin, like a skeleton.

Hermione couldn't help but scream when she saw the man's miserable state. She quickly covered her mouth and said, "Professor Moody, could he be..."

Moody remained silent. Vincent glanced at the Death Eater with Bagman's face on his head. "They peeled off his face alive and then used magic to forcibly stitch it back into their own face. These stinky rats are really perverted."

Moody originally thought that Hermione would be even more scared and terrified, but unexpectedly, she was braver than he imagined, and bravely walked towards the skeleton-like Bagman in the corner.

It is really hard to imagine what the once strong Quidditch player had gone through to be tortured into his current state.

She took out a piece of metal containing countless potions from the makeup box that was cast with the traceless stretching spell, and used the healing potions and healing spells to treat Bagman.

Moody seemed to have something to say, but in the end he still focused on the Death Eater in front of him who was about to die at any moment.

He didn't think Vincent's attack was too heavy. On the contrary, he admired this kind of character that showed no mercy to the enemies.

Being kind to the enemy is cruel to yourself.

The scars all over Moody's body are the best proof of this.

This Death Eater looked like he had completely lost consciousness, but who knew if he would suddenly open his eyes and die with them.

Just as he was thinking about how to bring the person back, Vincent standing next to him suddenly asked, "Professor Moody, do you know Legilimency?"

Moody nodded and shook his head. "Relying too much on magic to read minds will make people relax their observation of reality. Although I know some basic techniques, I can't perform them successfully when the other party loses consciousness."

If we want to get information as quickly as possible, it seems the only way is to wake the person up.

It is always unsafe to be in the Ministry of Magic staff dormitory. Perhaps the staff who have just returned to the room have come to their senses and secretly reported the situation to the Ministry of Magic.

But the risk of waking him up is too great. It would be better to take him away than to hand him over to the Ministry of Magic.

Just then, Sirius's communication came.

His expression on the projection screen was very complicated, as if he was feeling relieved but also annoyed. "How are you doing?"

Vincent pointed the camera at the Death Eater lying on the ground, then turned to Hermione who was treating Bagman. "Successfully resolved. We were just about to take him back."

"No." Dumbledore's voice rang out.

He appeared behind Sirius with an equally complicated look on his face. "Miss Jorkins is just a puppet controlled by the Imperius Curse. She is in a very weak state. Someone must have absorbed her life force."

This person could only be Voldemort. He did not choose to possess Jorkins. They made a mistake in judgment.

However, as long as the Death Eater disguised as Bagman was brought back, some information about Voldemort could still be obtained, or even the identity of the spy he had planted in the Ministry of Magic.

Vincent looked puzzled. "Professor, why don't you let us take the person back? We made a lot of noise just now. The Ministry of Magic may send someone over soon."

Dumbledore had a helpless smile on his face. "We don't have any evidence to prove that the whole thing is related to Tom, and Bagman is not an ordinary employee. Taking him away is a provocation to the authority of the Ministry of Magic."

Vincent's mood was indescribable, as if he had eaten a fly.

So what if he challenged the authority of the Ministry of Magic? Should he give face to such a corrupt and incompetent government?

Dumbledore saw the unwillingness in his eyes and said, "Vincent, Cornelius will definitely take this matter seriously. Even if he hides something from the public, he will definitely not allow the Death Eaters to continue to infiltrate the Ministry of Magic."

Fudge, who was obsessed with power, did not allow anyone to interfere with the Ministry of Magic. He was always on guard against Dumbledore, who had refused the position of Minister several times.

If he knew that Bagman had been quietly replaced by a Death Eater, he would definitely launch a major purge of the Ministry of Magic.

During this period of time, even if they failed to find the Death Eaters' spies, they would be cautious and dare not act rashly.

Vincent glanced at Hermione who was looking at him, and then looked at Moody who had a helpless expression.

The feeling of being bound by rules is really bad. Even someone as powerful as Dumbledore has to abide by the rules.

After working so hard to catch the man, he could only hand him over to the Ministry of Magic. If there was evidence about Voldemort, Fudge wouldn't have really fallen out with them.

After all, the Order of the Phoenix is ​​just a civilian organization. Non-official agencies do not have law enforcement powers, and the Ministry of Magic has plenty of ways to deal with the Order of the Phoenix.

If there is evidence, we can still mediate, but if there is no evidence, we can only follow the rules.
