It was also the same day that Jon joined the Department of Mysteries.
The first war in the UK broke out. The village of Hogsmeade, located next to Hogwarts Castle, was occupied by the Witches. The British Aurors who were originally stationed here and were always monitoring Hogwarts Castle were either
Captured or killed, no one was spared.
This was also the first result achieved by the Wu Ping Line after they declared war on the British Ministry of Magic, but of course the Daily Prophet did not report this matter. The news did not even appear on the pages of the next day, but even if it was not mentioned in the newspaper,
Wizards do not lack the flow of news. After occupying Hogsmeade, the wizards of the Witch Flat Line did not restrict the movement of the original residents of this wizard village.
Therefore, even if this matter has not been reported yet, almost more than half of the entire British wizarding community knows about it.
Even if the Ministry of Magic tried its best to minimize the impact of the situation, it was of no avail.
In this gap, six months after Cornelius Fudge resigned from the position of British Minister of Magic after the Triwizard Tournament, Barty Crouch Jr. was officially elected as the current British Minister of Magic.
Minister.
Voldemort gave him great power to deal with the Witch Level attack on Britain. Voldemort himself finally met all the purebloods again after disappearing from public view for a long time.
On this side, Jon was of course present. In the main hall of the Ministry of Magic, he made a speech that was obviously intended to respond to Dumbledore's declaration of war.
His appearance is still as young and handsome as ever. No matter what the true situation inside the pureblood is, the actual effect is undoubtedly a heavy blow to the message that has spread that Voldemort is timid and no longer dares to face Dumbledore.
But Jon, who actually worked in the Department of Mysteries, saw clearly that even if Voldemort stepped forward, there would be no way to change the fact that there had already been a huge division within the Death Eaters, that is, the pure bloods.
At the same time, after being familiar with the work of the Department of Mysteries for a few days, Jon also had a general understanding of this most mysterious and unknown department of the British Ministry of Magic.
This world is not only filled with wizards and other magical animals or races. Beings with living lives and independent self-awareness can use magic.
There are also many magics that have always existed, that no one can control, but that can be maintained by oneself.
Such as time, such as death, such as planets, such as prophecy...
That's right, the prophecies themselves are actually independent magical existences, and the wizard's divination only obtains or peeks into them through another kind of magical ability.
These are very wonderful things, and countless wizards have been obsessed with them since ancient times.
For example, when Jon led the Hogwarts to sail on the sea, he met "Sir Stoker". He had an obsessive love for astronomical magic such as planets.
There are also fortune-telling masters who travel around the world, and these people are all enthusiasts of divination and prophecy.
There is also the now-lost alchemy of making time turners, which is proof that ancient wizards mastered and utilized time magic.
Including Horcruxes, the person who created the Horcruxes must have extraordinary attainments in the study of death magic.
The Department of Mysteries is a summary department that includes such magical entities throughout the UK and even Europe.
The Department of Mysteries already existed when the Ministry of Magic was not called the Ministry of Magic, but was called the Wizards' Council, and the name of the people who worked here has been passed down since then. The wizards who work here are not
He is called an employee, but a "silent person".
The Department of Mysteries has great autonomy and is the only department in the Ministry of Magic that does not need to take orders from the Department of Magical Law Enforcement. The Silent Man, who can be called a "scientist" in the magical world, can even ignore the intervention of the Minister of Magic.
Of course, that was all in normal times. Since Voldemort came to power, all specialties are no match for absolute strength.
Even if the Silent Man does not have to take orders from the Department of Magical Law Enforcement, there is no way to disobey Voldemort's wishes, so this is why the Pure Bloods purged the entire Department of Mysteries.
After understanding the nature of this department, Jon looked at the behavior of purebloods occupying the Department of Mysteries. It made him feel absurd that a group of second-generation ancestors expelled the academicians of the Academy of Sciences and then came to have a party themselves.
I can only say that the reality is far more outrageous than the story.
These new pure-bloods have not even studied the magic of wizards thoroughly, let alone the magic they are born with.
Therefore, in the early days of entering the Department of Mysteries, they could not even compile the most basic information left by the previous Silent Men. They thought that there was not enough manpower. As long as they recruited enough people, they could handle the affairs of the Department.
Back on track.
But the reality is that strawbags are strawbags. Even if there are 10,000 strawbags together, they cannot become elites who can do things.
After Jon joined this group of purebloods to expand manpower, those purebloods who originally thought that recruiting people would solve the problem found that no matter how many people they hired, they couldn't understand things they didn't understand before.
People started to completely mess up.
Only a very small number of pure-bloods who had previously stayed in the Department of Mysteries as silent men could still do things, but the number of people they could count on one hand was of no help to the overall situation.
So these people didn't care about it and just dived into their previous research fields. Others, you can do whatever you like.
As for bringing back the silent man who knew how to do things before?
That is definitely impossible. Those silent people who have been squeezed out are either mixed-bloods or pure-bloods who have made it clear that they will be loyal to whichever Voldemort rules Britain. These are irreconcilable issues and cannot be brought back.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Since you can’t do anything, and you can’t get back the people who can do it, let’s just start it off together!
Anyway, their salaries from the Ministry of Magic have been paid correctly, and the work in the Department of Mysteries has nothing to do with the daily operations of the wizarding world. As the newly appointed direct leader, Slughorn will not check their work progress and status.
, so even if everyone is partying here all day long and not doing anything, it doesn’t matter at all.
After Jon saw these purebloods dancing around like monsters, he could only say that he truly saw the diversity of human beings.
But this can be regarded as a good thing for his and Slughorn's actions here.
Judging from the current performance of these purebloods, after they were ordered to settle in the Department of Mysteries, they have never been given further instructions. The only thing these people seem to have to do is to guard this place and not let anyone else
I have a chance to get my hands on something here.
The purebloods who have turned to Voldemort II are not very alienated in their attitude towards Speke, who Jon is currently pretending to be, and Slughorn, who have not yet made it clear who they stand on.
After all, they just have a vague attitude, rather than making it clear that they don't stand with them. As long as they party more and the relationship strengthens, everything else will be easy to talk about.
Jon also took this opportunity to develop good superficial relationships with the purebloods who were not very different in age from him. After that, at least when they met, they were no longer just acquaintances.
At the same time, with the help of the identity of the assistant director provided by Slughorn, he visited all the currently accessible halls of the Department of Mysteries these days.
The purebloods in charge of each hall were basically having parties, and some of them even brought their house elves over to have a barbecue in the Planet Hall, euphemistically calling it "sentiment."
Jon was quite speechless about this, but he didn't express any opinion, and even enjoyed a few skewers from the barbecue party.
You can't go to the Planet Hall. It's been so messed up that as soon as you open the door and walk in, there's a smell of skewers, and there's obviously nothing in this hall that is related to what Jon is looking for.
There was a locked door next to the Planet Hall. At first, the purebloods were also very interested in this inaccessible room. After they failed to open the door no matter what method they tried, they obtained it from various information.
The name of the room behind this door - "Love Room".
As the name suggests, it is a room dedicated to the study of love.
After learning about this incident, all the purebloods suddenly felt bored and stopped looking for a way to enter this door.
As for the Death Hall, which is used to study death, even after being warned by the only remaining genuine Silent Man, no pureblood could enter easily.
They are trash, but not stupid. They know that anything related to death is never good.
In addition, they use the Time Hall as an exhibition hall, which means that the current time turner cannot be used for some reason. Otherwise, it is estimated that many purebloods will take a few home, even if
It can also be used as a family heirloom when not in use.
No one went into the Brain Hall. The few real silent people who remained were experts in the study of human thinking. They hid themselves in the Brain Hall, closed the door, and ignored the other unlearned people.
No matter how much trouble the pure-blooded warriors take, other people won't bother them.
Moreover, this room is full of disgusting brains flying like jellyfish, and few purebloods are interested in them.
Very few people go to the Prophecy Hall. Most of the time, this room serves as a storage room for various prophecies from ancient times to the present. The most famous one is, not surprisingly, the prophecy about a savior who can fight Voldemort, but that prophecy
It is said that it was placed in the storage room, but only Voldemort himself knows where it is hidden.
Purebloods also know the importance, and no one comes to a place like this to have fun.
Within a few days, some purebloods were tired of life in the Department of Mysteries. This was partly due to the fact that the war in Britain was apparently getting smoother and smoother.
After occupying Hogsmeade at the beginning, the Witch Level Line relied on Hogwarts Castle and Hogsmeade, which had served as the goblin headquarters for a period of time during the Goblin Rebellion, as a bridgehead.
During the previous period of the Hogwarts Carriage Exile, safe houses of various sizes built secretly in various places were used as small strongholds, and they began to launch attacks on the senior personnel of the British Ministry of Magic, that is, those noble purebloods.
These days, many pure-bloods have been attacked in their own manors or castles, and have been damaged. As the active attackers, the wizards of the flat line have hardly paid any price.
So the purebloods began to spontaneously choose to form a group. They temporarily abandoned their family base and gathered together to prevent being defeated one by one.
However, these families all own industries in the UK. They almost monopolize 100% of the upper-class business in the UK. Otherwise, how could they possibly provide for their luxurious life with only the "meager" salary from the Ministry of Magic.
After they formed a group, Wuping Line began to attack the various shops and commercial transportation activities of these pure-blood families, which made them miserable. They continued to put pressure on Karkaroff, the current director of the Auror Office, and asked him to think about it as soon as possible.
The method is to start counterattack in response to Wu Pingxian's actions.
The combination of these messy things has made these purebloods who came to serve in the Department of Mysteries no longer interested in staying in the Department and partying.
They began to show frequent absenteeism. The most exaggerated incident was that after Jon came to the company, he could count the number of people who showed up on his ten fingers!
Slughorn, who looked like a good old guy, never said much about this, and he had no intention of calling the absentee over to reprimand him.
During this period, Jon could safely and boldly search for the source of those golden gravels in greater depth.
However, although these purebloods are undisciplined and unreliable, there are still a few of them who are clearly here with a mission.
Jon discovered that a few of them were very different from those wanton purebloods. Even if they didn't understand the work in the Department of Mysteries, they would not mess around. Instead, they would have a clear division of labor every day just like patrols. Wandering around in various halls, clocking in to work every day, and even leaving get off work at night, someone would be there, just like a dedicated security guard.
If you ask them what they are doing, they will just say they are bored and just walk around.
After Jon determined the movement trajectories of these people, he stopped caring about them.
He is now a pure-blood with a formal identity, and the identity of Spike given to him by Kingsley is not that of a useless pure-blood young master. He still has a certain knowledge and literacy. In addition, Olivan
The De family's wand business is unlikely to be affected in any case, so it is not noticeable that he did not miss work.
Therefore, Jon's subsequent investigation went very smoothly. He quickly eliminated other rooms and locked the final target within the scope of the Time Hall.
Because there are many large and small hourglasses placed in the main hall of the Time Hall. The sand constantly flowing in those hourglasses is very similar to the bottle of golden gravel obtained from Snape.
