Chapter 373 The Water Prison Curse and the Director of the Auror Office

Unlike materialistic science, magic has always been a product of idealism. Magic originates from the soul and rises and falls with changes in the soul.

In an extremely angry situation, Voldemort's shackles that were stuck on the critical line of a devil-level wizard were finally broken, which allowed him to successfully return to the realm of a devil-level wizard with only one-third of his remaining soul.

Dumbledore waved his wand, and after the anti-Apparition spell was broken, he no longer needed to rely on Phoenix Fawkes to disapparate.

Under normal circumstances, the Phoenix's Apparition is more concealed than an ordinary wizard's Apparition, because ordinary wizards always make "bang" explosions when they disappear and appear. There is no sound, but Phoenix's Apparition does not have this worry.

But relatively speaking, although the Phoenix's Apparition has no sound, the visual stimulation of the flames it brings is higher than that of ordinary Apparition.

For ordinary wizards, Phoenix's Apparition is naturally better than his own Apparition, but Dumbledore is different, he is already a Demon King-level wizard.

Demon King level wizards have higher control over Apparition than ordinary wizards. This allows Demon King level wizards to make no sound and achieve complete concealment when releasing Apparition.

In the original book, Dumbledore and Voldemort used Apparition several times without warning when they were fighting in the Department of Mysteries. That was the highest level of Apparition.

Dumbledore's figure appeared behind Voldemort. He understood that Voldemort had returned to a demon king level wizard, which meant that he could not capture or kill him alive today.

All Dumbledore could do was to suppress Voldemort as much as possible and repel him, thereby reducing his own casualties.

At this time, the green lightning chain all over the sky turned its gun head at the same time and tracked in Dumbledore's direction, which surprised Dumbledore.

Unexpectedly, the first Avada Kedavra Curse cast by Voldemort after returning to the Demon King level wizard was a combination of Avada Chain Lightning and Thousand Mile Tracking Kedavra Curse!

Dumbledore was silent. He no longer used Apparition to dodge, but waved his wand and summoned endless waves of water!

The water wave surged up like a tsunami, shrouding the Avada lightning chain that was shooting towards it.

This life-killing curse that should only be blocked by objects and living things was actually intercepted by the water waves!

After swallowing all the green light, the water wave roared towards Voldemort under the control of Dumbledore, trying to lock Voldemort tightly!

That's the water prison curse!

The water waves in the sky turned into a sphere and tightly controlled Voldemort within it. The water sphere was constantly compressing and squeezing Voldemort's living space in the air. The powerful water pressure actually made Voldemort's skin crack.

…

Time goes back half an hour.

After learning through the two-way mirror that Lynn had arrived in Little Hangleton Village, Old Barty took his wand and arrived at the Ministry of Magic through the Floo powder from the fireplace arranged for him by Dumbledore.

"Mr. Crouch!"

After seeing Old Barty's arrival, the staff in the lobby of the Ministry of Magic all greeted Old Barty with a bit of surprise on their faces.

You know, old Barty has been missing for less than half a year, and even the third event of the Triwizard Tournament was replaced by Fudge as the Minister of Magic.

But now, old Barty suddenly appeared in the Ministry of Magic, which made them feel a little surprised.

Old Barty just nodded slightly at them, without saying anything else, and headed towards the Auror's office.

After arriving at the Auror's office, Barty Sr. saw Rufus Scrimgeour pointing his wand at the portraits of the Death Eaters who escaped from Azkaban Prison posted on a blackboard.

"Director Scrimgeour!"

Old Barty nodded at Scrimgeour. Today Scrimgeour is still the director of the Auror Office of the Ministry of Magic and the person who talks here. If the Aurors here are to be mobilized to go to Little Hangleton Village, then he will first be To win Scrimgeour's support.

In fact, as the Director of the Auror Office, and also a relatively rare and upright high-level official in the Ministry of Magic, Scrimgeour is on the front line of hunting down dark wizards most of the time, and is rarely seen in the Auror Office. His figure.

If Scrimgeour was not here, Old Barty could directly use his identity to temporarily second these Aurors, but with Scrimgeour here, he had to get the other party's consent first.

Scrimgeour also nodded to Old Barty and asked: "Mr. Crouch, I heard that you have been missing for several months. What happened?"

Old Batty smiled bitterly and said: "I encountered a magical ruins some time ago, and I was trapped in it for half a year. It took me two days to escape with great difficulty. Don't laugh at me. By the way, what are you doing? doing what?"

Old Barty did not tell the truth, but used the so-called magic relics as an excuse to excuse himself.

This excuse was given to Old Barty by Lynn and Irina. As for the so-called magical ruins, Lynn and Irina planned to replace it with the cave where Voldemort buried the Horcrux Slytherin's Locket.

Anyway, the Slytherin locket in the cave had already been swapped. It would be a good thing to wait until the Ministry of Magic turned the cave upside down and revealed the corpses of the massacred Muggles at the bottom of the lake.

Scrimgeour was convinced of Old Barty's excuse. He smiled bitterly and said, "Isn't this a prison robbery in Azkaban Prison a few months ago? The superiors and the public have put a lot of pressure on our Auror Office. We We are discussing how to capture those Death Eaters!"

Hearing Scrimgeour's words, Old Barty's eyes lit up, and he quickly said: "Then you are so lucky. When I escaped from the magical ruins and returned to the Ministry of Magic, I happened to bump into a Death Eater. If I remember correctly, I also saw a few faces that had been imprisoned in Azkaban Prison."

"I thought I was wrong, or that there were similar-looking Death Eaters, or that those Death Eaters had taken Polyjuice Potion. But if Azkaban Prison is hijacked, then I have I am pretty sure that those Death Eaters are the fugitives you call them! Scrimgeour, I think you can just take the Aurors with me!"

Old Batty said with a serious face.

Hearing this, Scrimgeour hurriedly asked: "Old Barty, are you telling the truth?! Where is the Death Eater stronghold?! This is very important information. If you go a step too late, I'm afraid that stronghold will be gone. The building is empty!"

Old Batty nodded slightly and spoke out a place name in a deep voice: "Little Hangleton Village!" (End of Chapter)
