Chapter 175: Sarok's Conspiracy and Visit to the Astronomy Tower
On the same day, in the magnificent office of the Sarok headquarters deep underground in the suburbs of London, there were three red-robed wizards sitting there. Except for Russell, the other two red-robed wizards were all old men with gray beards.
However, one of the fat old men teased, "Russell, you've really embarrassed yourself this time, haha. I told you a long time ago that all the people you promoted in recent years are good-for-nothings, but you still don't believe it. So what? In just a few days, the intelligence department has problems again. You really opened our eyes! Hahaha!"
"Alger, can you be more careful? The people I lost here belong to the entire Salok!" Russell said dissatisfiedly.
"Oh, don't say that. They're just some garbage that can't even do a little thing. How can you call it a loss? It's just cleaning up the waste." Another old man also said.
"Eden is absolutely right! These scum are a disgrace to Sarok. They don't deserve to live in this world." Alger said viciously.
"It's not as simple as you think. I've fought with them a few times, and I'm just wondering why this team keeps using Eastern talismans." Russell tried desperately to make up for his failure, trying not to look so ugly: "Haven't you ever thought about those Eastern wizards who fought against us more than a decade ago?"
"Come on, Russell. You dare to say anything to save face! They used more than just Eastern talismans. I also saw those passages. The Dark Lord's little follower used very advanced soul magic. He is in control of the war situation! So, don't make excuses for the incompetence of your men." Alger responded bluntly.
"That's right, Russell! Many people have seen that little follower. He can't possibly join the Eastern Wizard, right? Moreover, not only are your subordinates incompetent, your own mistakes are also fatal!" Eden's words were even more merciless.
"Eden, explain yourself clearly. What does this have to do with me? It's a fatal mistake? If you don't explain yourself clearly today, I will never let you go." Russell was completely anxious.
"Then I really have to talk to you today. The three of us are at the same level, and this office should have been yours! You should also be in charge of all local operations! But what have you done for your own magic practice? You inexplicably promoted all the middle-level backbones by one level, but left the key positions vacant by the original middle-level to Muggles. Then you pushed your blue-clad deputy to your position to manage for you. You are free now, but the most direct result is that the entire organization is seriously out of touch! Have you thought about the consequences?" Eden asked almost angrily.
"Can this be blamed on me? You didn't participate in the negotiations between the organization and the Muggle intelligence department? Did I make this ridiculous decision?" Russell asked back dissatisfiedly.
"But you can refuse to execute it. You are the only one among all the red-clothed people who compromised. This is the proof." Alger said disdainfully.
"You are not in the mainland, so you have no idea how much pressure I am under! The royal family agreed, and the higher-ups agreed. They sent people to implement it three times a day. What can I say?" Russell started to complain, but after thinking about it, he felt it was meaningless and casually changed the subject: "Okay, let's not talk about those old accounts anymore, let's talk about what to do now."
"What's so difficult about this? Everyone disappears! Whether they are on vacation or on a mission, withdraw and let them think they have won! We will accumulate strength and give them a hard blow." Eden said nonchalantly: "By the way, if those useless subordinates of yours really have nothing to do, they can come and help me."
"You look down on my useless subordinates so much, yet you still need their help?" Russell asked angrily. After a pause, he continued, "Tell me, what's the matter?"
"You know, my people are mainly responsible for overseas treasure hunting. Last time your people went to Albania to look for the Dark Lord but to no avail, they accidentally reported a shocking news. That forest does not seem to be simple, and it seems to have buried unimaginable things. In fact, it is understandable. If there was no certain sense, why would the Dark Lord hide there to recuperate, right?" Eden was happy at this time.
"So? It's just a forest. You have a lot of people under you, so it shouldn't be difficult to explore it, right?" Russell was even more confused.
"How can it be just exploration? Since there are unknown benefits, let's take over this piece of land completely. After all, we don't know if that thing can be moved. Maybe it will become a research base in the future."
"You want to take over Albania? What a big appetite." Russell exclaimed.
"Stop talking nonsense and just tell me whether you can help or not!" Eden was too lazy to talk nonsense.
"I can help you! But we have to agree in advance that when we counterattack our homeland, you and Alger have to help me!" Russell finally decided.
"No problem, deal!"
......
On the other hand, when Yang Tian returned to Hogwarts, it was already seven o'clock in the evening. But he did not rush to the dormitory, but rushed to the astronomy tower. During this period of time, he had been very hard to teach his grandfather astronomy knowledge! Now he was eager to see his astronomy teacher, Professor Sinistra.
"Professor, I'm back!" Yang Tian shouted impatiently as he entered the gate of the astronomy tower.
"Fully recovered?" Sinistra's ethereal voice came from upstairs.
"Don't worry, professor. I'm completely fine now. Besides, I just got back to Hogwarts and I came here to report to you right away! I can't wait to continue practicing stargazing that I interrupted!" Yang Tian kept talking nonstop.
"Really?" Sinistra was very relieved, but then she asked with a puzzled look on her face: "In your previous letter, you said that you had recovered a long time ago, and you have never fallen behind in theoretical knowledge. Didn't you try to practice on your own?"
“Alas, I am also extremely anxious.” Yang Tian said pitifully, “But teacher, you also know how great my talent is. If I had just continued to practice astrology, I would have completed all the special skills you gave me. Then how could you have the sense of accomplishment you experienced in person!”
Sinistra was thoroughly amused. She said speechlessly, "Go away, you only know how to brag. With such ability, I really want to see how you perform today! But let me be frank with you. If you fail to visualize even one star tonight, I will show you how I will deal with you!" After that, she took Yang Tian to the upper level of the astronomy tower...
