Chapter 100 Are you serious about taking a step back?
"Back off! I'm warning you!" Umbridge roared at the top of her lungs. She couldn't remember how many times she had warned them, but the dementors had been so enraged by her series of actions that they lost their minds and swarmed towards them.
, trying hard to leave scars on her patron saint.
Dementors also have emotions, and their current emotion is anger. Yes, anger.
The injustice over the past few days and today's humiliation completely angered them, breaking their awe of the Ministry of Magic, and made them do very bold things.
The reason why we left our hometown, left the familiar Azkaban, and came to this ghost place like Hogwarts is to help you wizards capture Sirius. We guard the school gates and exits for you day and night.
Here, how did you treat us? Wizards have never stopped discriminating against dementors!
What's even more abominable is that you also interrupted our food supply. Without food, our tribe is getting weaker and weaker, and you didn't even give an excuse! You just interrupted the food supply quietly - the food we delivered last time
The food is only one-twelfth of the theoretical amount. Even this short-weight food was delivered a month and a half ago. It was agreed before that it would be delivered at least once a month, and there would be small batches of food to supplement it.
It was you wizards who broke your promise first!
You personally told us that food will decrease after we leave Azkaban, but you will ensure that we give you enough food once a month. But what is the reality? We have been away from Azkaban for three months, and you have only sent supplies once and a half.
…
We are hungry...
Hunger makes us weak and weakens our strength. We want to go out to find food on our own, but you still don't allow us - isn't this letting us starve to death guarding the rice barn? There are so many around Hogwarts and Hogsmeade.
Delicious food, but you ban us from eating it. Why is this?!
Why?!!!
ah!?
Is it because we have trouble catching Sirius, so you deprive us of food? But we don’t want to either. We also want to catch Sirius and go back to Azkaban to rest, but we can’t find him!
If you can't find Sirius, and then reduce the rations, you will have insufficient nutrition, your strength will decline, and you can't even find Sirius - Ministry of Magic, you might as well starve us dementors to death! If it weren't for the sake of the contract agreed with your ancestors
Come on, we gave up the idea a long time ago.
So what kind of bullshit inquisitor do you have today to punish us on behalf of the Ministry of Magic?
Is this still natural? Is this reasonable? Bullying us dementors to be honest, right? Today we must teach you wizards a lesson!
The dementors howled angrily, and although no one could understand what they were saying, the change in the weather could still be seen at a glance: half of the sky outside Hogwarts was completely dark, so dark that it seemed that
Drop the ink.
The Dementors finally surrounded Umbridge's Patronus and angrily tore it into pieces. Although after contacting the Patronus' body, the Dementors seemed to be on fire, with thick black smoke coming out of their bodies.
, but they didn't care, they threw themselves on the vanilla white cat risking their lives, tearing off wisps of silver mist from it.
Finally, with a popping sound like a balloon exploding, the vanilla white cat turned into a large cloud of white mist and dissipated. Umbridge's face was as pale as paper, and at this time there was only fear in her heart.
She turned her head and looked at Professor McGonagall with pleading eyes, "Minerva, save me!"
Professor McGonagall was facing a formidable enemy and summoned her patronus, a silver tabby cat, but her patronus just circled around her and had no intention of going up to support Umbridge. This was not McGonagall's fault.
The professor wanted to kill someone with a borrowed knife, but he was really unable to do so.
She also noticed the strangeness of the Dementors, weighed her own strength, and found that if her Patronus went up, the fate of Umbridge's Patronus should be similar. At most, she would be able to last longer and receive more injuries.
Just a few dementors. Even with the patron saints of Tom and Hermione, the situation is extremely dangerous. If you take action rashly, you will only involve yourself and the three children. And in the chaos, it is easy for mistakes to happen and cause unnecessary disasters.
loss.
So she maintained a defensive posture and did not go to rescue Umbridge. Professor McGonagall felt that after today, Umbridge should be aware of the danger of Dementors.
Seeing Professor McGonagall's actions, Umbridge was furious. Veins popped out on her forehead and she shouted hoarsely: "Minerva, I am an official of the Ministry of Magic! You must give priority to my safety——"
Before she could finish speaking, Professor McGonagall interrupted her: "Sorry, Dolores, I am a professor at Hogwarts. Students are always my top priority here."
Umbridge's face twitched twice, and she gritted her teeth and shouted: "Mi-le-wa-"
At this time, the last silver mist of Umbridge's Patronus also dissipated.
The physical Patronus summoned by a normal wizard would not be so fragile. But Umbridge's Patronus is too weird and fundamentally evil. The Patronus manifested by such crooked emotions is nothing short of golden.
Naturally, it can't hold on for too long if it's in ruins. It's so fragile that it doesn't look like it.
The dementors moved toward Umbridge like a black tide. As the black tide surged, the ground was covered with thin ice, and the sky became dark without any light.
Umbridge was completely panicked, fear filled her heart, and she could no longer find any happiness.
"Calling God - Guardian!" She waved the wand with a trembling hand, but only wisps of silver mist came out from the tip of the wand, completely unable to form a patron saint. Later, she couldn't even summon the mist.
Already.
With a snap, her wand fell to the ground, and she herself collapsed in the dirt, muttering: "I am the Senior Under-Secretary of the Ministry of Magic... I represent the Ministry of Magic... You filthy dark creatures cannot...
…cannot--"
She was emotionally broken, and tears fell from the corners of her eyes.
The dementors surrounded her, surrounding her, frantically absorbing all the positive emotions from her...
"Professor, do you want to save Ms. Umbridge?" Percy stood behind Professor McGonagall and asked hesitantly, "She is a representative of the Ministry of Magic after all..."
"Shut up!" Professor McGonagall squeezed out two words between her teeth. Of course she knew Umbridge's identity, and she also understood that a special envoy from the Ministry of Magic would be attacked by a dementor outside Hogwarts.
But she had no choice but to do so. The three children behind her made her have to be cautious.
Percy closed his mouth in embarrassment, realizing that what he said seemed inappropriate.
At this time, some wandering Dementors saw that Umbridge was surrounded by water, so they floated towards Professor McGonagall, but they were all swatted away by the vigorous tabby cat she summoned. McGonagall
The professor's patronus is not a showman like Umbridge, but a real physical patronus summoned by positive emotions.
Hitting the dementors immediately reminded them of the terror of wizards. They staggered back, trying to get as far away from this terrifying woman and her cat as possible.
When Tom and Hermione saw that Professor McGonagall had already had a conflict with the Dementors, they each summoned their own Patronus. The four of them summoned three Patronuses, leaving only Percy standing alone.
At the end of the line.
In this case, whoever couldn't summon the Patronus would be embarrassed. Percy tried shaking the wand, but only a few sprays came out. Percy silently put the wand back into his trouser pocket, secretly swearing to himself that he would definitely do it when he returned to the castle.
You should practice the Patronus Charm several times.
When Hermione's three-headed dog and the three-headed dog imitated by Tom appeared on the ground, something magical happened. The dementors stopped and looked over. When their eyes fell on
When Tom and Hermione came upon the Patronus in front of them, they made an unexpected move: all the Dementors took a step back.
McGonagall, Percy:?
These two patron saints were like a basin of cold water poured on the heads of the dementors, making them sober up a lot. After the anger subsided, their sanity began to recover, and many dementors recalled
Reminds me of the scene where I was killed by a three-headed dog not long ago.
Professor McGonagall was relieved to see that Tom and Hermione's shock effect was good. What she was worried about now was how to end it. The current situation was that the dementors attacked the officials of the Ministry of Magic and then blocked Hogwarts.
At the school gate, there is a stalemate with his side. Professor McGonagall doesn't know how the situation will develop next. But one thing is clear: no matter how to deal with it, this matter will be extremely difficult.
Punishing the dementors will aggravate their dissatisfaction, while indulging them will weaken the dementors' awe of the wizards - more importantly, neither of these two methods of handling resolves the core conflict. The only appropriate way to deal with it is
Punish them and send them back to Azkaban.
There is only one person in the entire British wizarding community who has the power to do this, but that person does not have the courage. Fudge's performance after Sirius escaped from prison was terrible. The only thing he could do was to plant many soul-destroying souls around Hogwarts.
It is strange to show that he really does something. As the saying goes, he does a lot of useless work to cover up the fact that he has not done anything.
Everyone knows that it is useless to still deploy Dementors around Hogwarts now - Sirius can sneak into Hogwarts by bypassing the Dementors once, and he can do it a second time, and a third time. Continue here
Stationing Dementors is just a waste of resources.
But Fudge was just pretending to be dead, delaying, and reacting passively, and there was nothing anyone could do about him! A Minister of Magic chose to mess up, and the harm caused was huge.
Professor McGonagall can now be said to be in a dilemma. At this time, because the dementors' pressure was slightly lessened, Umbridge recovered again, and her vitality was as tenacious as a cockroach.
She raised her hand tremblingly and shouted to Professor McGonagall: "Minerva, save me..."
Professor McGonagall sighed. After all, she couldn't watch the dementors kill Umbridge here. She believed that the dementors had taught Umbridge a profound enough lesson, so she drove her guardian
The god rushed towards the dementors. Tom and Hermione also began to fuse their patron saints.
This time, like a hornet's nest, the dementors exploded. They moved and flew in all directions, surrounded by the howling wind. They looked earth-shattering, but when faced with Professor McGonagall's patron saint, they were still
Being thrown away again and again, like fallen leaves in the autumn wind.
At this time, the patron saints of Tom and Hermione were also fused, and they rushed towards the dementors. The dementors avoided each other, not wanting to be contaminated by the flames of the three-headed dog. This charge successfully killed the dementors.
The dark clouds formed by them broke through, and the black clouds in the sky quickly dissipated, and even the cold air disappeared a lot.
At this time, several Patronus and several white lights ran from the direction of Hogsmeade, which became the last straw to overwhelm the Dementors. It was Umbridge who stayed in Hogsmeade to release these Patronus spells.
Germany's group of strikers and Aurors. They saw the strange changes in the sky and rushed over at a faster pace.
After seeing that the dementors were gathering together to riot, they also summoned their own patron saints, intending to teach the many dementors a lesson and suppress them.
They succeeded.
In front of the patron saint spells released by the wizards, the dementors were helpless. If they could maintain their previous momentum, the effect of these patron saints would definitely not be so good, but
At this time, the dementors had lost their vitality and were naturally no match for the wizards.
The Patronus rushed into the Dementors and completely defeated their already scattered formation. The next battle was a one-sided pursuit of death and death. The Dementors fled in all directions, while the Patronus was in hot pursuit.
, leaving scars one after another on them, causing them to hide in the darkness and disappear.
After being rescued, Umbridge gradually regained her energy, and the reinforcements from the Ministry of Magic became her support. After she regained consciousness, she gasped and stared at Professor McGonagall, her back molars gritting.
The sound.
"Minerva, are you deliberately refusing to save me?" Professor McGonagall saw her embarrassed side, and Umbridge felt extremely shameless. She was now full of resentment and vented it on Professor McGonagall.
came out.
"They're back again!" Tom exclaimed, pointing behind Umbridge.
"Ah!" Umbridge squatted down holding her head and let out a miserable scream, "Help me! I was wrong! I'm sorry——"
But she soon realized something was wrong: there was no suffocating atmosphere around her when the Dementors arrived. When she looked up, she saw Professor McGonagall and others looking at her with half-smiling smiles.
She immediately understood that she had been tricked, and Umbridge's toad-like face turned livid in an instant. She was so angry that she couldn't say a word now. She could only stand with her arms folded.
While waiting for the arrival of his subordinates.
