Early the next morning, before Wang Xu went to talk to Voldemort, a meteor streaked across the sky and headed straight into the Great Hall of Hogwarts.
In the auditorium, students and professors were having breakfast. Under everyone's comments, the meteor quickly turned into a figure.
"Scrimgeour?"
In the tutor's seat, Professor McGonagall, who was drinking milk, subconsciously stood up.
Scrimgeour, who was composed of human figures, ignored Professor McGonagall's actions and just whispered: "The Ministry of Magic has fallen, the Minister of Magic has died in the battle, they are coming, they are coming!"
With a bang, Scrimgeour's figure exploded, as if he had never appeared before.
After a brief silence, the student suddenly screamed: "The Minister of Magic is dead, and the Death Eaters are coming!"
Professor McGonagall, Professor Flitwick, Professor Slughorn, Professor Snape, Professor Pustraw
One professor after another stood up, everyone's eyes were solemn, and everyone had the same idea that the night was coming.
"Quiet, Hogwarts is in session as usual. The school has the ability to protect you. You are still safe in the school." Looking at the chaotic crowd, the new principal, Professor McGonagall, put her wand against her throat, and a loud voice sounded from all directions.
.
Upon hearing Professor McGonagall's voice, the little wizards became quiet, but the panic on their faces did not diminish at all.
Wang Xu sat on the instructor's seat and ate the chicken roll in two or two bites. The Ministry of Magic had fallen, and the era of Voldemort had come.
Compared with the plot of the original work, this time it is Voldemort himself who kills Dumbledore, which will bring his prestige to the highest level. It is hard to say whether Harry and the Order of the Phoenix can come to fruition.
The only good thing is that before Dumbledore died, he had already destroyed five Horcruxes, and the seventh Horcrux was Harry, which means that only by destroying the serpent Nargis can the final battle begin.
As for who wins and who loses, based on the strength comparison between the two sides, Voldemort seems to be a sure winner.
It's a pity that the protagonist of this world is Harry. Under the halo of the protagonist, it is not easy for Voldemort to defy fate, and the future is somewhat confusing.
Woo woo woo
Outside the open door, a black whirlwind suddenly hung up, and a black smoke column separated from the whirlwind and hit the ground hard.
Everyone quickly looked up and saw more than twenty black-robed wizards walking out of the black smoke.
Lucius, Dolohov, Rookwood, Bellatrix, Lestrange, Yaxley, Carrow brothers and sisters, MacNeil, Roll
Every black-robed wizard who appears is a notorious Death Eater, and some of them still have wanted notices hanging on the walls.
More than a dozen professors from Hogwarts came out one after another with wands in hand, confronting these Death Eaters.
And just when the war was about to break out, two more black smoke fell and transformed into two middle-aged people, a man and a woman.
"Pierce, Umbridge!" Seeing the two new people appearing, Professor McGonagall's expression changed again and again.
"Who is Pierce?" Ron, who was hiding among the students, asked Hermione in a low voice.
Hermione clenched her hands and said through gritted teeth: "Piers Thicknesse, Director of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement of the Ministry of Magic, is the second most powerful person after the Minister. I didn't expect that he would also fall behind."
"Good morning, Professor McGonagall, good morning, little wizards." Pierce was a middle-aged man in a tuxedo. He had a soft smile on his face and spoke like a normal greeting. If there weren't many Death Eaters around him,
The little wizards present can appreciate his closeness to the people.
"Pierce, what are you doing here with Death Eaters?"
"Death Eaters, no, no, no, they are not Death Eaters, but people from the Ministry of Magic."
Pierce looked back at the Death Eaters behind him and said with a smile: "They are now employees of the Ministry of Magic, and are no longer Death Eaters. As for why I came, of course I want to announce the new appointment, and there is a little something small.
." Pierce said this and nodded to Umbridge beside him.
Umbridge is a fat middle-aged woman. In the fifth film, she was appointed by the Ministry of Magic as the senior investigator of Hogwarts and concurrently as the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor. She implemented militarized management and made Hogwarts miserable.
Watts is a mess.
Returning again as a winner this time, she looked even more impressive. She spoke in a girlish accent: "The former Minister of Magic, Scrimgeour, is suspected of corruption, misappropriation of public funds, abuse of power, etc."
Multiple accusations were made, and he committed suicide out of fear of guilt when being investigated. Now, the Ministry of Magic has voted to appoint Mr. Pius, Director of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement, to take over as Minister of Magic.
After many rounds of consultations, the Ministry of Magic unanimously believed that former Minister Scrimgeour had professional ethics issues and his appointment as the Headmaster of Hogwarts was invalid. The proposed appointment is the Head of Slytherin Branch and Professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts.
Napp, temporarily acting as Headmaster of Hogwarts, while Professor McGonagall was demoted to Deputy Headmistress."
As soon as Umbridge's words came out, it caused an uproar on the scene.
Even the professors looked at each other, because for a long time, although Hogwarts was nominally under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Magic, the appointment of the principal was actually made internally.
Even Scrimgeour appointed McGonagall as the principal because Professor McGonagall was highly regarded and she was Dumbledore's successor.
Fortunately, the Ministry of Magic directly intervened and removed Professor McGonagall from the position of Headmaster. It really showed no mercy at all.
"Do you have any opinions?" Although Umbridge was smiling, she was smiling but not smiling, and her eyes looked at people with a cold light.
Many professors bowed their heads. Voldemort is now in charge of the Ministry of Magic. To reject this proposal is to reject Voldemort himself.
Although Voldemort did not come in person this time, he sent more than a dozen senior Death Eaters, obviously to pressure Pius.
When the situation is still unclear, the first priority is to protect yourself wisely. Only a fool would confront Voldemort at the height of his power.
"Professor Snape, the position of Headmaster is yours. The Carrow Brothers and Sisters represent the Ministry of Magic and are here to assist you in teaching. Is that okay?" Umbridge showed some sincerity when she treated Snape.
His smile is obviously different from how he treats other people.
After all, if they were sitting in a row among the Death Eaters, Snape would usually sit on Voldemort's right hand side, facing Barty Crouch Jr.
Among Voldemort's men, Snape, Barty Crouch Jr., Lucius, and Bellatrix can be said to be the four leader-level Death Eaters.
A snobbish person like Umbridge may not care about the professors at Hogwarts, but she cannot care about Voldemort's cronies. She is a woman who knows how to judge.
"No problem." Snape still had the same expressionless look on his face. He didn't seem happy to be the headmaster at all. He just nodded inconspicuously.
Umbridge took something out of her arms, took out a parchment scroll, and said with a smile: "There is one last task, to arrest Harry Potter who spreads rumors, incites public opinion, and creates chaos, and the secret gang Phoenix who assists him.
Club member!”
Wow!!
The sheepskin scroll in his hand shook, and a picture scroll ten meters long and fifty centimeters wide suddenly unfolded.
The young wizards present looked up one after another and saw three words "Wanted Order" written at the top of the scroll, followed by portraits of many people.
The first person on the list was Harry himself, with the word "wanted" stamped on it, and then there was a reward of 100,000 gold galleons.
Further down, there is a wanted poster for Mad-Eye Moody, with a reward of 80,000 gold galleons.
Looking down one by one, members of the Order of the Phoenix whose identities have been exposed can basically be found on the bounty list. The higher the ranking, the greater the bounty, and conversely, the lower the ranking, the smaller the bounty.
A young wizard looked down one by one, and when he saw the last two people on the wanted poster, he exclaimed: "Hermione and Ron!"
No.30: Ron Weiss, with a reward of 800 Galleons.
No.29: Hermione Granger, with a reward of 1,200 Galleons.
Seeing the portrait on the wanted poster, everyone present turned their heads and looked at the two Hermiones in the Gryffindor camp.
Hermione and Ron's faces turned pale. Before they could hide away, they heard Umbridge chuckle: "Professor Snape, I think as the headmaster of Hogwarts, you should agree to my taking them away."
Are these two members of the Order of the Phoenix trying to cause chaos?"
"No objection." Snape looked calm and looked at Hermione and Hermione as if they were looking at dead people.
Hearing these words, Umbridge covered her mouth and chuckled, and ordered without looking back: "Yaxley, my head of the Auror Office, I order you to capture them."
"Yes, Madam Deputy Minister." The man named Yaxley had long blond hair and a sinewy face that made him look fierce.
Seeing Yaxley coming out of the Death Eaters, Professor Flitwick, who had a good relationship with Hermione, couldn't help but take out his wand, but unfortunately he was held down by Professor McGonagall before he could use it.
"It's not time for the decisive battle yet, Flitwick!" Professor McGonagall shook her head slightly and suppressed Flitwick's wand.
Professor Flitwick was furious and asked: "What about the children?"
"I have notified the Order of the Phoenix. I hope they can arrive in time." Professor McGonagall said in a sad tone. Most of them, the professors, are biased towards Dumbledore, but the current situation and position prevent them from expressing their stance easily.
Now is the time when darkness has arrived and dawn has not yet arrived.
Breaking off with the Death Eaters hastily will only make the situation worse. Neither Hogwarts nor the Order of the Phoenix are ready for a decisive battle.
Likewise, without being exposed, they can continue to teach at Hogwarts and prevent the Death Eaters from doing whatever they want.
Professor McGonagall really couldn't imagine where Hogwarts would go if they were gone, and whether it would become a training base for dark wizards.
"Hermione, what should we do?"
Looking at Yaxley walking towards them, Hermione and Ron were helpless like two deer, retreating step by step.
With a grin on his face, Yaxley said in a relaxed and cheerful tone: "Scream, it's useless to break your throat, no one will come to save you." At this point, Yaxley turned around slightly and said from
Many professors glanced at him with provocative looks in their eyes.
"Wait, I have something to say." Under the silence, Wang Xu raised his hand gently and stood up from the instructor's seat.
At this time, everyone suddenly realized that there was still a professor who did not step forward and never left the tutor's seat from the beginning to the end.
