Chapter 474 Order Returns

There is no doubt that Hogwarts Castle is actually a war fortress!

The era of its first generation of masters, the Big Four, was a chaotic and disordered world. Dark wizards, plagues, monsters, and even scum gods spread fear and death on this continent without scruples.

So the Big Four turned their beloved school, Hogwarts, into the most solid fortress at the time.

Not only are there a large number of magic traps and maze-like stairs and walls that change, but there is even a basilisk hidden in the basement of the castle!

These, coupled with the powerful protective spells outside the castle and the countless magic statues guarding it, have turned Hogwarts into a military city.

However, to this day, the legacy left by the Big Four has been almost lost. Not only have a large number of dangerous restrictions in the castle been dismantled, but even the basilisk has been eliminated.

This has greatly weakened the defense capabilities of Hogwarts, to the point where it is not enough to resist Voldemort.

Yes, that's right!

Hogwarts Castle does not have the power to resist Voldemort. In front of that kind of humanoid self-propelled nuclear bomb, the protective shield that Hogwarts is proud of is like a layer of screen window, which can be broken with a poke.

It can be said that if Voldemort wants to, he can easily break into Hogwarts.

But he can't do this, because Dumbledore will take action, and once the two of them fight, then Hogwarts will undoubtedly become a ruin, which is not conducive to Voldemort's future rule.

As the oldest magic school in Europe, Hogwarts represents extraordinary significance.

As long as it exists, Voldemort will be able to continuously train new subordinates after ruling the country. On the contrary, once Hogwarts is destroyed, Voldemort's rule will become a matter of course, and sooner or later it will be overthrown by others.

That's why Voldemort wants Dumbledore to die so much, and even sends people like Draco to assassinate Dumbledore.

In fact, it is absolutely impossible to say that Voldemort really has any hope for Draco. After all, the gap in strength between the two is too big, even if Dumbledore has been eroded by the curse.

Mike estimated that the reason why Voldemort asked Draco to carry out such a dangerous task was simply to warn the dishonest Lucius Malfoy.

But Mike gave Draco a hope to complete the task, that is, the Vanishing Cabinet.

The Vanishing Cabinet is a magical item composed of two identical cabinets. The two cabinets are connected. As long as you open the other cabinet and get in, you can get out of the other cabinet thousands of miles away.

In simple terms, this is a simplified version of the Floo Network, which can be freely teleported through two nodes.

This magical prop was created by a 15th-century wizard with some superficial alchemical knowledge he mastered.

But the funny thing is that the Vanishing Cabinet was originally created for touqing, but after the Ministry of Magic discovered that it actually had the ability to ignore the Unplottable Charm, the Anti-Apparition Charm and the Anti-Apparition Charm, it was banned as a dark magic item.

Since there were not many Vanishing Cabinets made in the past, few people know how to use them nowadays.

But coincidentally, there is a Vanishing Cabinet in the utility room of the Room of Requirement and in Borgin and Burke's, and they are a complete set!

This means that the Death Eaters can directly invade Hogwarts through the Vanishing Cabinet in Borgin and Burke's, completely ignoring the protection spell outside Hogwarts that is powerful enough to allow Snape and the other three to withstand the siege of hundreds of wizards.

In the original book, it was with this Vanishing Cabinet that Draco was able to capture Hogwarts, and even Dumbledore died because of it.

And now, Michael has also set his sights on this Vanishing Cabinet.

His plan is actually very simple. Draco only needs to tell Voldemort about the Vanishing Cabinet, and then the other party will never miss this opportunity to surprise attack Hogwarts.

At the same time, Michael will use Draco, the undercover, to move the Vanishing Cabinet to a safer location such as the Freemasonry Secret Realm, the Ministry of Magic, or the Hogwarts playground, and then ambush troops at the above locations, waiting for the Death Eaters to come.

If things really develop as Michael expected, the scene will become funny.

The Death Eaters will come out of the Vanishing Cabinet one by one, and then Michael and others who have been prepared for a long time will swing their wands and fire a round of killing curses at them.

In this case, the Death Eaters can basically be said to be killed one by one, and the battle on the scene will be simply the same as the line-up shooting tactics of the Ying army during World War I.

If nothing unexpected happens, the main elite of the Death Eaters will be wiped out after this battle.

Voldemort's forces will surely suffer a devastating disaster. It is even possible that Michael and others will cooperate with the Vanishing Cabinet to launch a counter-attack on Voldemort.

Of course, the key to this plan is that Draco can't have any problems. If he has any problems, then let alone attacking Voldemort, it might be the Freemasons who will be attacked.

At this time, Draco, who was regarded by Mike as the key to the plan, was limping towards the exit of the Room of Requirement. He would turn his head to look at Mike from time to time, as if he couldn't believe that he was released so easily.

At this moment, his appearance was completely different from before. Not only did his shabby robes become brand new, but even his hairstyle was perfect.

This was Mike's request. He didn't want others to think that he abused Draco Malfoy.

When Draco left the Room of Requirement, Mike and Zhou Hong retracted their sight. They both laughed happily. It must be said that it felt good to be an old coin. Zhou Hong even fell in love with this method of using wisdom to manipulate people's hearts.

But happy times are always short-lived. After enjoying the pleasure of being an old coin for a while, Mike and Zhou Hong went to the auditorium. They had other more troublesome tasks to deal with, and the first one was of course to find the assassin.

But this was not an easy task.

You know, before Mike was discharged from the hospital, Zhou Hong had used his ability on most people in Hogwarts, but the final result was nothing. Well, it can't be said that nothing was gained, at least they found Draco, the unlucky guy.

This incident shows that the assassin was either very lucky and was not detected.

Or the other party mastered a very advanced brain occlusion technique, so he could lie in front of Zhou Hong's ability.

Whether it is to continue to check the remaining students or to catch the assassin who has mastered the brain blockade, it is not something that can be accomplished in a short time. Therefore

, Mike decided to take it slowly.

Let Zhou Hong check all the students first. If it doesn't work, Mike will go out and catch the assassin himself.

This will undoubtedly take a long time. Fortunately, Mike has the support of Dumbledore.

Until Christmas, Hogwarts will be in a completely closed state, and no students are allowed to go out, including going to Hogsmeade Village.

This means that the so-called assassin cannot leave Hogwarts before Christmas.

This order was issued by Dumbledore, but it was not actually for Mike to catch the assassin, but because the outside world has been completely messed up because of Mike's bounty order recently. Dumbledore gave this order for the safety of the students.

Perhaps some people will say that the assassin can rely on house elves to leave Hogwarts, just as Mike has always done.

But in fact, strange house elves can't take people away from Hogwarts or teleport people into Hogwarts.

This is because Dumbledore, as the headmaster of Hogwarts, has unparalleled control over the castle. Even Dumbledore knew every time Mike left Hogwarts with the help of the house elves. He just didn't say it.

If it weren't for this, Voldemort and his men wouldn't have to look for the disappearing cabinet. It would be enough to let the house elves send them into Hogwarts.

And thanks to the time Dumbledore bought for Mike, Mike could also focus on another equally important task - maintaining order in Hogwarts.

...

In the hall of Hogwarts, students from various colleges were enjoying their lunch.

In the past, under the pressure of the professors, they would be relatively quiet and want to finish the food on their plates, and then leave in groups of three or two.

But now it's different. Now the hall is as lively as a banquet!

Everyone shouted loudly without scruples, and from time to time they would raise the food on the plate and throw it at others, and then laugh at the embarrassed look of that person.

The whole hall was in chaos!

Food was being wasted at an alarming rate, which made it difficult for the house elves in the kitchen to cook, because the amount of food for lunch was about to exceed the quota.

Reason told the house elves that they had to stop, but the servility in their bodies made them dare not stop, because it would cause dissatisfaction among the students, which the house elves could not tolerate.

But continuing to work would only be a temporary solution, because if the amount of food for lunch exceeded the quota, they would have to start using the ingredients for dinner, which would make the ingredients for dinner insufficient, causing dissatisfaction among students and even professors.

This was almost an unsolvable problem, and the house elves in the kitchen were almost tortured to commit suicide.

Fortunately, Mike came at this time.

He walked into the auditorium with Franklin, Zhou Hong and other members of the mutual aid association.

Turning his head to avoid a roasted chicken leg thrown at him, Mike slowly pointed the wand in his hand to the top of his head.

"Boom boom boom!"

A series of deafening explosions exploded from the tip of his wand!

The students in the hall were startled. They turned their heads in confusion and looked in the direction of the explosion. The moment they saw Mike and others, their expressions changed dramatically.

The recent assassination of Mike can be said to be the most explosive news in Hogwarts, so now everyone was very surprised to see Mike, who was supposed to be recuperating in bed, suddenly come to the hall with a large group of people.

But Mike didn't care what they thought. After seeing that everyone's attention was focused on him, Mike put his wand against his neck and used the "Voice Loudness Spell" to say loudly:

"Now, clean up the hall immediately and go back to your lounge!"

Mike's voice echoed in the empty hall. The students standing or sitting in the hall were all shocked. They really didn't expect Mike to say such a thing, because in their opinion, Mike should be in the same group as them.

But soon, this surprise turned into anger. The students began to curse at Mike on the stage, and the hall became noisy again.

Mike watched all this expressionlessly, while Zhou Hong beside him showed sarcasm.

As a faceless person with the talent of mind reading, he and others could figure out the psychological changes of this group of people.

Although they had lived a carefree life these two days and trampled on the school rules of Hogwarts without anyone paying attention to them, they knew very well that although the professors had not disciplined them recently, they would be punished sooner or later when this matter was over.

In other words, they were just going crazy at the end.

They were expecting Mike, the culprit who had provoked all this, to take most of the responsibility alone, but now Mike stood up to stop them!

This behavior was undoubtedly a betrayal in their eyes! That's why they were so angry.

But their anger was meaningless to Mike, because the students in the auditorium shouted for a long time but no one rushed up to fight with Mike, which was obviously a bluff.

Shaking his head, Mike didn't want to continue to tangle with this group of people.

He raised his wand high, and without him chanting a spell, a ball of scarlet sparks gushed out from the tip of the blackthorn wand.

The ball of sparks continued to stretch and twist in the air, greedily sucking the oxygen in the air like a new life. As the oxygen continued to be taken in, the size of the flame continued to expand, and finally turned into a ferocious fire dragon!

The giant fire dragon did not attack the students after it appeared, but floated above the auditorium, staring at the students in the auditorium with its dark eyes.

In just a moment, the auditorium became quiet. Although the temperature in the auditorium had risen to an unbearable level due to the appearance of the fire dragon, no one complained. Everyone looked up at the fire dragon above their heads with horror.

"Are you... kidding..."

A seventh-year Gryffindor student murmured in a low voice. He couldn't understand why Mike would use such a terrifying spell to deal with them just because he and others shouted a few times!
