Chapter 539 Unexpected Reinforcements

"Why are you (we) here?"*2

Benjamin and Harry said at the same time.

After all, Harry reacted quickly and quickly explained:

"We were about to go find Professor McGonagall. Her Transfiguration class had started a long time ago, but she didn't come. So we came to see the situation. After all, you know, this kind of thing happened to McGonagall The professor is incredible.”

Hearing this, Benjamin nodded in agreement. He knew very well that Professor McGonagall was indeed the kind of person who was very strict with others and himself.

But at this time, Hermione's eyes lit up. She looked at Benjamin with bright eyes and said eagerly:

"How is Mike's condition now? Have you found a way to rescue him?"

"That's why I came here today." Benjamin shook the document bag in his hand and said, "Dumbledore gave us some help."

"How can this be?"

Harry and the three of them said in unison. In their opinion, under the current circumstances, it would be good for Mike and Dumbledore to meet without fighting. How could they help each other?

But then they fell silent again. As Dumbledore's students and Mike's friends, they had no qualifications to comment on this matter.

"We can help too."

After a long silence, Hermione finally said.

Benjamin smiled bitterly and said to the three of them:

"I accept your thoughts, but let's forget it. This matter is too dangerous for the three of you to participate in. Especially Harry and Ron. If I let you two come to help, Sirius and Weiss Mrs. Rai will definitely kill me.”

Hearing this, Harry and Ron also lowered their heads. They also knew very well that what Benjamin said was true. The Black and Weasleys themselves were definitely willing to participate in rescuing Mike, but once they were involved, they would be completely It’s different.

But Hermione was still unwilling to give up, gritted her teeth and said:

"No, we must help you if you need help!"

"this……"

Benjamin smacked his lips and was about to continue persuading, when he saw Hermione continue:

"The house elves, the house elves in the Hogwarts kitchen are also willing to help!"

"House elf?"

"Yes, those house elves would do anything for Mac!"

"Well," Benjamin narrowed his eyes slightly and said thoughtfully, "In this case, it's not impossible to ask you to help."

Hearing this, Harry and Ron looked at each other, while Hermione had an expression of surprise on her face. She dragged Benjamin and started running towards the kitchen.

This shocked Benjamin. Although he was a big man and naturally no weaker than Hermione, he knew the relationship between Hermione and Mike very well and was afraid that he would hurt Hermione if he stopped suddenly, so he could only He let Hermione drag him all the way to the kitchen.

At this time, the Hogwarts kitchen is still a busy scene. In other words, the Hogwarts kitchen is very busy most of the time every day. It is not enough to feed and drink an entire Ministry of Magic school. It's an easy thing, and the house elves like them can only rest for a while late at night.

But here, there are naughty children who always come to them in the middle of the night asking for midnight snacks!

From a human perspective, this is simply a blessing, but the house elves believe that this is a blessing in the true sense.

After all, in the consciousness of house elves, work is the meaning of their existence. The more they work, the happier they are.

Just like at this moment, even though they had a lot of work at hand, when they saw Hermione and Benjamin arriving, they still sent a few house elves to specially receive them.

After learning that Benjamin was actually Mike's good friend, the house elves became more respectful and excited.

This made Benjamin understand two things. One was that Mike's reputation among the house elves at Hogwarts was really high. Second, what Hermione said before was not empty talk.

Thinking of this, Benjamin directly informed the house elves of Mike's current situation and made a request for their help.

But what he didn't expect was that the house elves looked confused after hearing what he said.

"Um, you're saying... Mr. McTownley is in trouble and needs our help?"

One of the house elves with the largest ears asked hesitantly.

Just by looking at him like that, Benjamin knew that most of the other party didn't understand what he just said. Shaking his head, Benjamin simply gave up the idea of ​​explaining to the other party and said directly:

"Yes, when the time comes I need you to leave Hogwarts with us to help Mike."

"this……"

Hearing this, several house elves showed embarrassment on their faces, and Benjamin was also considerate of the other party. Knowing that the other party's identity did not allow them to leave Hogwarts casually, he said:

"Well, you can mention this to Dumbledore first. I believe he will agree."

Having said this, the house elves refused without any reason. Finally, they gritted their teeth and nodded, quickly disappearing into the kitchen, probably to discuss it with the other house elves.

Hermione saw all this in her eyes. She frowned and said in an apologetic voice:

"Sorry, Benjamin, I didn't expect it would be such a hassle for them to leave Hogwarts."

"It doesn't matter, I'm sure Dumbledore will agree."

The corners of Benjamin's mouth rose. Although he still didn't understand why Dumbledore wanted to help them, judging from the current situation, the other party was still very sincere.

Just some house elves, Benjamin believed that Dumbledore would not be reluctant to part with them.

At the same time, what happened with the house elves also reminded Benjamin.

There are actually many powers they can use within Hogwarts.

You must know that students have been the group most easily exploited by others since ancient times, and due to identity issues, these people can exert a much greater effect than the average person!

The only problem is that it is immoral to do so. After all, these are their classmates. Benjamin is undoubtedly using his classmates as cannon fodder. But when things have developed to this point, Benjamin really can't control that much. As long as he can rescue Mike, no matter how big the sacrifice is, it will be worth it in his opinion!

Secretly making up his mind, Benjamin took Hermione and Harry and Ron, who came panting later, to visit the prefects of each college, and easily gained their support.

Benjamin was not surprised at all by this, after all, Mike's reputation in Hogwarts was too great!

I believe that as long as those prefects nod, and supplemented by the encouragement of those prospective employees of the Los Santos Security Company, it won't be long before they can have a special student team!

After doing all this, Benjamin said goodbye to Harry and others, and returned to the secret realm of Freemasonry with satisfaction.

But what he didn't know was that what he did at Hogwarts today had already been recorded by Professor McGonagall!

Seeing Benjamin's disappearing figure, Professor McGonagall's lips were so puckered that they were almost squeezing into a pile!

When Benjamin completely disappeared, she turned around and left. She walked almost as fast as she could in her life to the principal's office and stood in front of Dumbledore.

At this time, Dumbledore was much better than when he last met Chris.

Although his body was still as shriveled as a mummy, at least the strong smell of decay had disappeared from his body.

Looking at Dumbledore on the recliner, Professor McGonagall instinctively flashed a trace of sadness in her eyes, but she quickly adjusted her emotions and poured out everything Benjamin had done.

After saying this, Professor McGonagall was even shaking with anger and stood there gritting her teeth and said:

"Albus! You must stop him! He wants to bundle the students of Hogwarts into their chariots! There will be no good results for those students trapped in it!"

But after hearing this, Dumbledore's face showed no expression. He only said slowly in a dry voice:

"Promise him."

"you can not……"

"Promise him!"

Professor McGonagall stopped talking. She just stood there, looking at the unrecognizable Dumbledore on the couch with the eyes of a stranger.

In her impression, Dumbledore was definitely the person who loved the students the most in the entire Hogwarts, but now, a principal like this had made the move to personally send his own students into a pit of fire.

For a moment, Professor McGonagall even wondered whether Dumbledore had been cast under the Imperius Curse.

Fortunately, she quickly came to her senses.

Because Dumbledore is the kind of 'good guy' to begin with.

Since he could personally kill Mike Townley, a student he had high hopes for, for the sake of peace in the magical world, he could now naturally sacrifice other students for the same reason.

For a moment, Professor McGonagall's eyes suddenly turned cold when she looked at Dumbledore.

The reason why she has stayed with Dumbledore for so many years, apart from the fact that she likes the profession of professor, is that she still has fantasies about Dumbledore and hopes to have an answer.

But now it seems that even after so many years, Dumbledore is still the same Dumbledore, and has not changed at all.

With this thought in mind, Professor McGonagall gave Dumbledore one final cold look and left without even looking back.

Dumbledore, who was sitting on the recliner, naturally noticed the change in Professor McGonagall's mood. He sighed heavily and looked out the window again.

"Mike, Mike, it's up to you now."

…

‘Where… is this? correct! I was defeated by Dumbledore, so this is hell? ’

Mike was a little confused and thought that maybe it was because he slept for too long and his mind was always hazy now. But soon, his conclusion was overturned, because as his consciousness gradually became clearer, his perception He gradually recovered, and waves of heartbreaking pain quickly came from all parts of his body!

As we all know, dead people cannot feel pain.

After confirming that he was still alive, Mike did not open his eyes immediately, but tried to keep his body as still as possible while stretching his body in a small way.

This is the valuable experience he gained from many years of hard work in society!

Through this method, Mike quickly confirmed three things.

First, he should have been locked up, and judging from the restraints on his wrists and ankles and the posture of his body, he should have been tied to something similar to a cross.

Secondly, my body is quite normal, at least my limbs are still intact, and I am not missing any arms or legs. As for whether the fifth limb is still there, Mike doesn't know, but judging from the fact that there is no pain in the lower body, there should be no problem.

Third, the person who imprisoned him must have cast a special spell on himself that can weaken his strength and inhibit the recovery of his magic power. As a result, not only is his body now limp and without any strength, but his mental power and magic power are also almost gone. Depleted, extremely weak.

After figuring out these points, Mike breathed a sigh of relief and began to feel heavy at the same time.

Although it seems that there is no problem with his life safety at present, no matter who is imprisoning him, the method used is too comprehensive, right?

After these several restrictions on his strength, it was now difficult for him to twist his limbs greatly, let alone how to break free!

Thinking of this, Mike gave up pretending and opened his eyes directly.

Everything you see is pitch black.

This actually did not surprise Mike. After all, if there was light, he could sense it even with his eyes closed.

But the strange thing is that it stands to reason that human eyes can gradually adapt to changes in external light, so even at night, as long as there is still some light, normal people can see something blurry.

But all Mike could see at this moment was darkness.

This is extremely unscientific.

Seeing this, the last trace of luck in Mike's heart was extinguished.

Because he knew very well that the reason for the current situation was actually very simple. Either he was directly sealed in a completely sealed thing, or there were a large number of things similar to 'the blackest black in the world' around him. A mysterious substance that does not refract light at all.

But no matter what situation it is, it cannot be solved by Mike now.

After figuring this out, Mike could only close his eyes again and think about Dumbledore.

Mike actually knew why Dumbledore attacked him.

It's nothing more than fear that Mike will become the next generation of Dark Lord and mess up the wizarding world.

But Mike really didn't expect that Dumbledore still had some strength left, and was willing to use this last strength to deal with him.

In Mike's opinion, shouldn't he and Dumbledore already be friends?

Still a relatively good relationship.

Facing his good friend, Dumbledore was really able to kill him! ?

Dumbledore! Are you really a cold-blooded animal?

Uncontrollably, a surge of anger quickly sprang up from Mike's heart, gradually expanded and spread, and finally turned into a raging flame!
