"Every government needs to have enough violent means to ensure that its policies can be implemented when necessary. But because the mainstream consciousness of British wizards has formed a rejection of black magic, the Ministry of Magic essentially lacks violent means because of their
Members are basically not allowed to use overly harmful spells when performing official duties."
Farian glanced at the Daily Prophet on the counter, "A whole group of Aurors couldn't even defeat a wizard who barely fought back. In the end, they forced the opponent to panic and used a big move.
, obviously the fundamental reason is that this battle took place in Hogsmeade, and to consider not hurting innocent people, and to consider the impact of public opinion, those Aurors can only use some low-level and mid-level control spells, hoping to win with numbers.
"
He laughed, seeming to find it quite interesting, "Then the car actually overturned. However, these people are really not very smart. Since the other party can withstand the attacks of so many people without almost fighting back, it means that it is completely wrong."
We should fight and have a good talk, why do we need to offend everyone?"
Erwin was silent. Farian had never experienced the scene, so his evaluation was unfair. This is a mistake that most people would make. The fact is that those Aurors came after receiving an emergency signal, and by default Erwin
Erwin is the target of arrest, so there is no possibility of talking about it.
So the root cause still lies in the strange dementor who suddenly made a warning move.
But Erwin wasn't going to say anything more. He didn't want little Rosario to have any related associations.
"Aurors must have frequently used black magic in their battles with dark wizards, using stun spells to fight against Avada Kedavra. How many people in the Auror department can withstand such an exchange of battle losses? But ours
The government is not even willing to admit this publicly, so it is not difficult to understand their reliance on dementors. The people in power now are basically anti-dark magic people, such as Mr. Fudge and his confidant Ms. Umbridge. They can come to power
Mainly due to the Dark Lord more than ten years ago, most people have developed a strong fear of dark magic. In this public opinion environment, even Aurors who publicly use any harmful spells will be condemned."
"So they need dementors." Erwin said following the trend: "I can understand it this way, because rejecting black magic has become 'politically correct' in the British wizarding world, so the Ministry of Magic has been reducing its own armaments over the years?
"
Farian's eyes lit up, "You're right, this is 'political correctness'." He stretched out his hand, and the Daily Prophet automatically flew into his hand, "Old Aurors like Kingsley Shacklebolt are more important than ever."
They come less and less, either died in the line of duty or retired, and now Shacklebolt has also been demoted. I am a little curious whether the new generation of Aurors can fully understand the dark arts? They have no actual combat experience, and they don’t even have the opportunity to train.
How much? What if the Dark Lord from back then comes back or a new Dark Lord appears? A large number of casualties will be almost inevitable."
Farian smiled, "Of course, I don't doubt that these young people who voluntarily join Aurors have a noble spirit of sacrifice, but this government's idea of wanting to convert Aurors into black magic is really outrageous... I'm sorry for this.
My humble opinion will make you laugh. I am usually more interested in politics, so I accidentally said too much."
"I would be happy to chat with you for a while. There are not many people in the British wizarding world who have your level of knowledge." Erwin said, "Back to the topic of dementors, why does the Ministry of Magic think they can control them?"
Soul monsters are used by them? Where does this kind of confidence come from? If it is to seize the weakness of Dementors' fear of advanced black magic such as Avada Kedavra, then isn't it in line with the current policy of de-dark magic by the top management of the Ministry of Magic?
Contradictory?"
Farian's expression moved slightly. He did not answer immediately, but thought for a while, "Good question." He said slowly: "If you think about it this way, you will indeed find a contradiction, but Azkaban and Dementors have existed for several years.
Hundreds of years later, they did not become loyal to the Ministry of Magic only after Fudge came to power...Does the Ministry of Magic actually control the Dementors or indirectly controls them? Regardless of the fact, if it is announced, it will definitely cause public dissatisfaction..."
"Then we can launch a wave of public opinion offensive to force Fudge to step down and change the leadership of the Ministry of Magic?" Erwin said.
"So this is actually your purpose?" Farian's eyes burned.
"How is that possible?" Erwin wondered. Many of the things he was doing now were repeatedly jumping over the boundaries of violating wizarding laws. A Ministry of Magic that was not very capable of governing would be good for him.
"I'm just curious about Dementors." He said matter-of-factly, "There is no other purpose other than that."
That's right, I just want to understand and resolve my doubts.
He opened the package that Olicia gave him, took out the books inside and started to read. This meant that he was not going to continue chatting, and it was a sign of seeing off the guest.
However, Farian had no intention of getting up and leaving.
Erwin turned his attention to books. There were actually only five books about dementors provided by Lothario. This was not surprising, after all, dementors were only distributed in the United Kingdom.
Wizards from other countries are rarely particularly interested in a unique monster from another country.
Erwin glanced through the catalog in general, then flipped through specific content and frowned slightly.
In fact, these materials are no longer public content, and even record the details of the establishment of Azkaban, including the names of the people in charge at the time, and the changes in the number of Dementors over the past few hundred years.
But there wasn't anything Erwin wanted to know.
"What, are you not satisfied?" Farian asked.
"Although it is very detailed, it does not contain what I want to know." Erwin shook his head slightly, "Although the information even contains detailed records of the entire process of the dementor's self-dividing after absorbing the soul, it is still
It doesn't solve my confusion, which is how the first batch or the first dementors were born."
"Is this important?" Farian grinned.
"It's very important. Only by tracing the source can we know the essence." Erwin said seriously.
"After all, our family is not a professional intelligence organization. Someone must record his knowledge in writing and turn it into a book before we can collect it." Farian spread his hands.
Erwin sighed slightly, thinking that old Mr. Losario could give him the information he wanted, but in fact he didn't.
"To be honest, I'm a little interested in this aspect now," Farian tapped the table with his fingers a few times. "By thoroughly understanding the Dementors, maybe we can have a chance to discover some of the Ministry of Magic's deepest secrets...
Don’t we cooperate? I have an idea.”
"How to cooperate?" Erwin asked calmly.
"Since there is currently no research report on tracing the origin of Dementors, can it be considered that there is still a gap in research in this area? Then we can only fill it ourselves." Farian chuckled, "Obtained from books.
Knowledge is obviously far inferior to personal practice, so we might as well do our own research."
"Then where did the research material come from?" Erwin asked expressionlessly.
"Just go and capture two." Farian shrugged.
"Capture? Capture from the Ministry of Magic?" Erwin looked at the other party with a very surprised look.
"What else? There's no other place to find Dementors."
"This is almost directly against the Ministry of Magic." Erwin frowned.
This idea is really crazy. It doesn't take much thought to openly oppose a country's magical government. You don't need to think about it to know how stupid it is.
"Of course I'm not just going to catch two of them in a big way." Farian shook his head, "Now is the time when a large number of dementors have been mobilized to catch jumpers. It's a rare opportunity."
"Today's Daily Prophet has reported on the unrest in Hogsmeade." Erwin reminded: "Those Aurors and Ministry of Magic staff must have heightened their vigilance."
"I didn't say I was going to Hogsmeade." Farian's tone was very meaningful.
Erwin was stunned for a moment, then understood, "What do you mean..."
"Now that a large number of Dementors have been mobilized and the Ministry of Magic's main attention is on the fugitives, will Azkaban's own defense...become less relaxed?" Farian said with a smile on his face.
It was such an astonishingly bold idea to go to Azkaban to poach dementors, which would make those good, law-abiding magical citizens faint when they heard it.
This guy... is really lawless.
"This guy is quite interesting." Riddle made a rare positive comment on others, "I think you can consider his proposal."
Erwin pondered, to be honest, the risks and benefits of this plan are completely unequal. This is completely trampling on the laws established by the Ministry of Magic, and the benefits are only first-hand research information on Dementors.
But thinking back to that weird dementor, Erwin always felt a thorn in his heart.
He has some guesses, and the guesses need to be proven.
Then you might as well give it a try, even if it is indeed a crazy plan.
"Do you know the location of Azkaban?" Erwin asked Farian.
The wizard's prison is located on an isolated island in the middle of the ocean.
"You should know. Even if you don't know now, you will know then."
Erwin understood what this meant. With the status of the Losario family, it was impossible to say that he could not figure out the specific location of the wizard prison.
He pondered for a while, "If we really want to capture the dementors, it probably won't be possible with the abilities of the two of us."
Azkaban holds a large number of dark wizards, and its defense strength must be at the highest level. Erwin estimates that Farian's magic level is at most a little higher than his own, and should not reach the level of a professor at Hogwarts.
.
Even if the Ministry of Magic's attention is mainly on the fugitives, if their two highly rated wizards want to sneak into the island where Azkaban is located, they will probably never return.
"Of course it won't be just the two of us." Farian immediately shook his head, "We can find a helper who is willing to cooperate."
