Chapter 501 The Board of Directors has decided that you will be the Headmaster of Hogwarts

Naturally, Rice and the other two had no objection to Godric's wish.

Their first thought after waking up was to take a look at Hogwarts a thousand years later.

Well, that's not quite accurate. The first thing Rowena, Helga, and Godric thought of when they woke up was to beat up Salazar...

The second is to take a look at the current Hogwarts.

But Rice himself didn't realize this.

The four of them walked out of the dungeon along the path and came to the lobby on the first floor.

Godric opened his eyes wide: "There are so many torches and candles. Hogwarts has really become rich. And the paintings on the walls are all very beautiful. The suit of armor in the corner looks pretty good too!"

He looked around like a country bumpkin who came to the city for the first time, wanting to take in everything.

By the time they entered the Great Hall, Godric's eyes had completely widened.

Even Odin’s temple cannot compare to such luxurious decoration.

However, you can still see the shadow of the former Hogwarts from some large frameworks, such as the iconic ceiling.

As the three of them were walking around the castle with Godric, Dumbledore appeared.

The old man did not leave the school immediately after the holiday, but stayed in the castle for a while to get in touch with the principals who chose to stay in the UK.

After the invasion of the underworld began, he was even busier. He had to answer a lot of letters every day to keep wizards around the world calm, and occasionally accept interviews from newspapers and seek help from the top leaders of the Ministry of Magic.

In this major change that has not happened in thousands of years, Dumbledore experienced firsthand what it means to be in a turbulent time.

After such high-intensity work, he was exhausted both physically and mentally.

After all, no matter how powerful his magic was, he was still a centenarian. Other elderly people at his age were lucky enough to be able to take care of themselves, so how could they still be able to work?

What's more, his mission is now infinitely close to saving the world.

Dumbledore himself felt that if it were not for the help of the domain, he might lie down on the bed and never get up again.

At this critical moment, he chose to seek help from several bigwigs in Hogwarts, who were the school's foundation, hoping that they could help him share the burden on his shoulders.

As a result, when he arrived at the corridor on the first floor, he actually saw the three people gathering with Godric!

Dumbledore was stunned at first, then he was overjoyed.

Given the characteristics of those three people, there is no way they would let Loki out to spread the news, so the person in front of them is undoubtedly the real Godric Gryffindor!

That would be wonderful, especially at this time.

Hogwarts and the entire wizarding world need the power of these four people.

Dumbledore strode towards the four people. When he saw their faces, he felt that all the tiredness in his body was swept away, and his body seemed to be thirty years younger.

"Professor Dumbledore, you haven't..." Helga wanted to say go home, but considering that Dumbledore was homeless like them, she changed her words in time: "...start to enjoy your vacation?"

But this sentence didn't have much effect.

Dumbledore sighed and gave a wry smile.

"Professor White, you should know that the underworld has invaded and the whole world is in chaos. How can I enjoy my vacation?"

You know, Dumbledore is not only the headmaster of Hogwarts, but also holds a series of titles such as President of the International Confederation of Wizards and Chief Wizard of the Wizengamot.

Since you have such a title, you must assume the corresponding obligations.

Dumbledore couldn't just sit back and watch what happened to the wizarding world. Although he had been unwilling to leave Britain like a ghost for more than half a century, he would still provide some help within his ability.

Hufflepuff nodded, indicating that he had indeed spoken out of turn.

Godric on the side just stood there in a daze.

What do you mean by an invasion of the underworld? Wasn't the underworld sealed by the four of us?

After noticing the confused look on Godric's face, Helga took the initiative to explain to Godric what happened at Hogwarts at the end of the last school year, which immediately silenced the Gryffindors.

I didn't expect that after so many years, I would have to face such a mess when I woke up again. Is my fate to keep running around? Godric couldn't help but complain that he didn't seem to have a few days of peace in his life.

But after sensing the presence of his three old friends, Godric regained his composure. His old friends were still around, so at worst they could just fight one more time.

They have dealt with all the Norse gods in their heyday, and they are not afraid of some guys who escaped from the underworld.

"We must first ensure the safety and stability of the United Kingdom," Rice said softly, "otherwise it will damage the prestige of Hogwarts."

Dumbledore glanced at the boy who was a head shorter than him and thought to himself, "You finally don't want to act anymore, right?"

Lestan met Dumbledore's gaze with an open heart.

He is now just an ordinary fourth-year student at Hogwarts, who comes back to visit his teacher during the holidays.

"Oh, by the way, there's something I forgot to tell you." Rice told everyone that he saved a planeload of people on his way back.

Helga and Godric were stunned when they heard this.

Has the old venomous snake changed his character? Why would he take the initiative to save the Muggles?

When everyone was adventuring together in the past, Salazar always preferred to mind his own business. If the other party could not offer enough chips to impress him, he would definitely choose to stand by and watch.

How could such a person take the initiative to save a planeload of Muggles?

What? Loki took over Gryffindor's body, and Gryffindor's soul, which had nowhere to go, took over yours?

Rowena understood Salazar's intention when he was halfway through his speech.

"That plane was in the UK, right? Then you are right. We can't just sit there and watch those evil spirits trample on the rules set by Headmaster Dumbledore."

Rice nodded, saying that he acted out of consideration for Dumbledore and the Hogwarts he represented.

"Oh!"

"I see!"

Helga and Godric smiled at each other. That's right! This is indeed something Salazar could do.

He may have all kinds of problems, but he is ultimately a lawful person.

Dumbledore was quite surprised. He didn't expect that his reputation was so great that he could drive such a person to defend his promise. But he immediately realized that this person was probably willing to cooperate because of his identity as the headmaster of Hogwarts.

If someone else were to come, it wouldn't be so prestigious.

The four people before them have already reached the pinnacle of humanity, and are truly capable of doing whatever they want.

After a brief chat, the strategy of the magical world was decided.

They need to stabilize the situation in the UK first and wait and see how things develop.

After talking about these things, Rowena, Helga and Les exchanged glances quickly. They felt that they should talk about something interesting.

"Professor Dumbledore, how old are you this year?" Helga took the initiative to bring up the topic.

Dumbledore raised his eyebrows, he was keenly aware of a hint of unusual smell.

Could it be that……?

"That will be 114 years old in July this year." Dumbledore suppressed his inner excitement and spoke in a calmer tone.

All four of them were surprised.

They knew Dumbledore was very old, but they didn't expect him to be this old. It was no wonder that his influence in the Ministry of Magic was gradually declining, because he was really too old. The Ministry of Magic and the Daily Prophet might have even prepared his obituary in advance.

At this age, you really shouldn't be under high-intensity work pressure.

"I'm afraid the job of Hogwarts headmaster is very stressful," Rowena whispered.

Dumbledore immediately understood what she meant and his eyes lit up.

The reason why he had been the headmaster of Hogwarts before was because he had no choice. Tom Riddle had been lurking in the shadows like a venomous snake, threatening the safety of Hogwarts, which made him dare not hand over the position of Hogwarts headmaster to others.

None of the teachers in the school could rival Tom, so this old man had to take the lead.

As the days passed and he gradually aged, Dumbledore felt a little uneasy. He was afraid that after he passed away, no one would be able to check the man who fell into darkness.

Now his uneasiness had dissipated.

After I stepped down, there were still Godric, White, Arius and the others. After these two, there was Les Lint. The talent curve of the entire Hogwarts was extremely healthy - apart from anything else, if Les Lint was really as old as he appeared, then Hogwarts would not have to worry about top combat power for the next seventy years.

The reason why he hasn't retired yet is entirely because of the sudden invasion of the underworld, which has forced him to stay in this position and use the huge prestige he has accumulated over the past hundred years to stabilize people's hearts.

Now that they have mentioned this, it means that they are ready, and it is time to hand over the position of principal.

So Dumbledore immediately continued what Professor Arius said.

"The pressure at work is just too great. To be honest, if it weren't for the matter of the underworld, I would have submitted my resignation at the end of the semester."

Godric, who was standing aside, suddenly became serious. He knew that he was about to be in great trouble.

He instinctively wanted to resist his "fate", so he said: "The situation is urgent now, Professor Dumbledore, why don't you -"

"The position of headmaster should be handed over to someone with more prestige." Dumbledore sensed the retreat in Gryffindor's tone, and he acted decisively, interrupting Godric before he could finish his words.

"You, Godric Gryffindor, the founder of Hogwarts, one of the greatest wizards in the history of magic, a legend from a thousand years ago, are undoubtedly the best candidate. I believe you can lead the teachers and students of Hogwarts through the current underworld crisis, and then make Hogwarts flourish. Professor White, Professor Arius, what do you two think of this candidate?"

"Great."

“It couldn’t be more perfect!”

Helga, Rowena and Les immediately took over Dumbledore's words and praised Godric.

Complimentary words like "the greatest of the four giants", "a symbol of courage", "the greatest hymn of mankind is the hymn of courage" were thrown out like that for free, with only one purpose: to put Godric on the throne of the headmaster.

Godric was dumbfounded. He never expected things to turn out this way.

He knew that with his three good friends around, he would become the headmaster of Hogwarts sooner or later. But he had been chosen as the headmaster less than half an hour after his resurrection. Wasn't it a bit too hasty?

Godric wanted to say something, but Rice and the other two didn't give him a chance. The three of them formed a "凵" shape, surrounded Godric in the middle, and pushed him towards the staff seats in the auditorium.

After arriving at the staff seat, Les grabbed Godric's arm and pulled him to the chair in the middle of the long table where Dumbledore had previously sat. Helga and Rowena grabbed Godric's shoulders on the left and right and forced him onto the chair that represented the headmaster's status.

Rice glanced at Dumbledore, who understood what he meant and said to Gryffindor loudly: "The board of directors has agreed to let you be the headmaster of Hogwarts! You are now the current headmaster of Hogwarts - we will complete the formalities later."

When Godric heard this, his face fell. He said to the three old friends around him with a bitter face: "You really made me suffer!"

These words came from the bottom of Godric's heart, and they were absolutely what Godric really meant.

He really didn't want to be the headmaster of Hogwarts, especially when his three old friends were around.

In their era, sitting in this position would make others laugh at you!

But Rice and the others didn't care about all that. They were just happily discussing when to announce the change of principal.

……

When Godric became the headmaster of Hogwarts, Muggle society was also in turmoil.

A small group of Greek government officials fled to the United States and established the Greek Government in Exile in New York. After a very short time, the United States immediately defined the actions of the Olympian gods as an invasion.

At that time, the United States had just won a great victory in the Gulf War and its international reputation was at its peak. Greece was also a member of NATO. So in a very short period of time, an army of extremely large scale was formed.

Their purpose is to kill God.

In fact, Muggles are generally optimistic. They think that the times are developing, technology is advancing, and the so-called Greek gods have been swept into the garbage heap of history.

It's time to teach these arrogant guys a lesson!

On the day Godric was resurrected, the Security Council passed a resolution setting the deadline for the ancient Greek gods to withdraw from Greece as July 1995, 7, and authorized "all necessary means to implement Resolution 1" - a diplomatic language authorizing the use of force.

That evening, the tentative negotiations between US Secretary of State Baker and ambassadors from various countries and the ancient Greek gods broke down. By then, the war was a foregone conclusion.

The various countries mobilized more than one million troops, more than 3000 tanks, 6000 armored vehicles; 1940 combat aircraft, 247 warships, and 9 aircraft carriers, trying to flatten Mount Olympus in one fell swoop.

In the temple of Mount Olympus, the king of gods Zeus smiled after hearing the news.

"We have slept for too long, so long that mortals have forgotten the majesty of the gods. Let me help them remember." He stood up from the highest throne, with lightning flashing in his palms.
