Chapter 717: The Giants of Sicily

While the rumors spread rapidly inside the castle, Evan and the others were discussing what was happening outside of Hogwarts. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Voldemort did not make public the news of his resurrection, and he disappeared like Karkaroff, hiding in the shadows.

Evan knew that he was probably frightened by his wand and felt that it was not strong enough......

Regardless, Voldemort didn't move on the surface, which was what Evan and Dumbledore wanted.

Everyone was not ready, Voldemort needed time, they needed time, and the real confrontation did not begin.

But the most direct consequence of this situation is that Fudge is even more convinced that Dumbledore is talking nonsense.

"Fudge is too much, he dares to question Dumbledore!" Hagrid said unhappily as he came to visit Evan, Harry, and Ron, "If Dumbledore hadn't supported him, he wouldn't have been the Minister for Magic at all." ”

"We all know what kind of person Fudge is!" Ron said, his bandages already removed, "My mom has always said all these years that stupid Fudge and the stupid policies he made. He's like that, very stubborn and prejudiced, look at my dad, he's treated unfairly in the ministry. ”

"The most unbelievable thing for me was that he summoned a Dementor from Azkaban into Hogwarts. "What the hell did he think, Barty Crouch Jr. was subdued, and he thought he might hurt him." ”

Indeed, the Dementor thing is too bizarre to believe, no matter how you think about it.

Evan later learned that after frequent vampire attacks and Mr. Crouch's accident, Fudge had ordered the Dementors of Azkaban to be on standby and for the Aurors to take it to Hogsmeade through the Portkey that had been prepared long into it......

The Dementor who sucked Barty Crouch's soul away made it from Azkaban to Hogwarts in less than half an hour.

Judging by the consistent performance of the Ministry of Magic, this is unimaginably efficient.

There is a big loophole in the Hogwarts defense system in the portkey, as long as someone from the Ministry of Magic cooperates, anyone can make a Hogwarts portkey, even Keresis can do it, it is estimated that Dumbledore has realized this.

He'd probably perfect this sooner rather than later, taking back the magical authority to craft the portkey from the Ministry of Magic.

"yes, I know Fudge is stupid, but I thought he would be a little more cautious about that man's affairs. Hagrid said, waving his hand impatiently, "There are so many facts in front of him, and he doesn't see them!"

He just ignored those things, and Fudge was clear that people didn't want to see Voldemort come back. Evan said, then sat up from his bed, "He wants to maintain the status quo and continue to be his own Minister of Magic, not to go to war." If Voldemort returned, the wizarding world would inevitably be in a panic, which would not be conducive to his rule. Many people, like him, do not believe us, do not want to believe in the fact that Voldemort has been resurrected......"

"I knew the mystery man was coming back!" Hagrid said, "I've known for all these years, I know he's there, waiting for the right moment, and it's going to happen." Now that it has happened, we must acknowledge the reality. ”

"You're right!" Evan nodded, "The first thing we need to do now is acknowledge reality. ”

"Yes, we have to fight, and we can stop the mysterious people from gaining power and dominating the world. Of course, that was Dumbledore's plan. Honestly, Dumbledore was such a great man, and as long as he was there, I wasn't too worried. Hagrid continued, "It's useless to sit and be in a hurry, what should come will come, and when it comes, we will accept it." ”

When it comes to Voldemort's resurrection, Hagrid shows an incredible amount of wisdom, much better than most.

Evan understood why Dumbledore was willing to trust Hagrid without reservation.

Although he is careless, always makes things worse, and has no resistance in the face of dangerous magical creatures, he is never confused when it comes to such big things.

"Don't talk about Fudge, Hagrid, tell me about you and Lady Maxim!" Harry asked, "Evan said Dumbledore was looking for you and Lady Maxim to come to his office, what does he want you to do?"

"Oh, he got me and Olim some work......"

"Who is Olim?" Aven, Harry, and Ron all looked at him in surprise.

"It's Madame Maxime, then I need to say!" said Hagrid, a little embarrassed, and hurriedly distributed the rock crust cakes he had brought with him, "He wants to contact the giants, let us do this, and give them a message." Olim will go with me, too, and I've convinced her that we're going to do it together and set out to find the hidden giant......"

"Where are the giants?" asked Aven.

"They are near Sicily, where the giants were born and where they last lived. "Don't ask me anything more specific, I won't tell, you know, I need to keep it a secret." ”

Sicily, which belongs to Italy, is the largest and most densely populated island in the Mediterranean.

It's hard to imagine that the giants are hiding in such a place.

However, in Muggle mythology, Sicily is indeed known for producing giants.

It is said that even the name comes from a certain giant in Greek mythology.

The island is famous in both the Muggle world and the wizarding world, and the Strait of Messina between it and Italy is home to a very famous siren, Scula, a distant relative of the merfolk and extremely dangerous.

When Evan was learning the mermaid language, he had seen this material in the library.

Similar to merfolk, the Krakens also use the language of merfolk to communicate.

Their upper body is the image of a very beautiful human female, but their barking is like that of a dog.

Because they have dog heads around their waists, and the number varies, and gradually increases according to their strength, and there can be up to six.

Each dog has a long neck and three rows of sharp teeth on its head, as well as two arms that hang around the waist.

In the past, this Siren would use its singers to confuse and eat lost sailors, but after the Italian Ministry of Magic and the International Confederation of Wizards designated an area for the management of special Sirens, the frequency of such tragedies has been greatly reduced!

Also, speaking of Sicily and the Kraken, we have to mention Calybdis, the mythical matrospir near them.

In the real world, there is indeed a terrifying vortex that appears from time to time and engulfs passing ships......
