"Then we should—" Ryan asked, but before he could finish speaking, Dumbledore made a quiet gesture.

"Of course I don't need you to rush to the front lines, at least not until we old men die. Dumbledore said something cruel in a calm tone. "It's just that as the parties involved in this matter, I think you need to know about it and be mentally prepared. ”

After saying this, Dumbledore changed his tone and said, "Of course, even if the war is brutal, we still have to live. Enjoying a happy life is also a good riposte to those evil forces. At least on today's winning day, I think you still need to celebrate with your classmates. You should hurry back to the common room now. ”

Dumbledore had gone to the office with McGonagall, Moody, and Snape after sending Ryan and the two of them away, and it seemed that he was going to consult with the members of the Order of the Phoenix about his next move.

On the way back to the common room, Harry looked a little lost. Of course, because he participated in the competition completely by others, and he did not participate voluntarily. So this confusion is not because of losing the game, but thinking about Voldemort.

"Ryan, what do you think Voldemort is going to do next?" asked Harry, plucking up his courage.

"I don't know. Ryan shook his head, he was telling the truth, and now that the plot had changed dramatically, the future was shrouded in a fog again. He really didn't know what Voldemort's next move would be. "It's nothing more than gaining power, co-opting lackeys, and finally gaining the right to dominate the world. This is true of all villains. ”

At this point, Ryan paused and looked into Harry's green eyes and said, "But what should come will come, and we will accept it when it comes." Harry, just try to improve yourself and get ready. Don't let mystery people take over your entire life. ”

"Oh, every time I listen to you, I feel like you're an elder—" Harry looked better at Ryan's reassurance. There was even a joke. "But you're right, there's no point in worrying too much right now. I'll try to adjust myself. ”

Sure enough, there was a big party in the common room, and everyone didn't go to bed until one or two in the morning. Fortunately, the exam is over, and everyone has enough time to sleep the next day.

But the next day, the joy was shattered, and at breakfast the newspaper was thrown by an owl on everyone's heads, and the expressions of everyone who opened the newspaper became serious.

Ryan unfolded the newspaper he subscribed to, and saw that the front page of the Daily Prophet was filled with ten black-and-white photographs, the faces of nine wizards and a witch, some smiling silently, some arrogantly tapping their fingers against the border. Each photo is marked with a name and a crime for which he was imprisoned in Azkaban.

"Neville, are you alright. Ryan suddenly noticed Neville's body trembling next to him, and following his gaze, Ryan set his eyes on the only picture of a witch in the newspaper.

The witch in this photo has long, unkempt black hair and a haughty, contemptuous smile on her thin lips. It can be seen that she has inherited the handsome looks of the Black family, but the mental problems caused by her long Azkaban career and the almost insane worship of Voldemort have taken away most of her beauty.

Underneath is the line: Bellatrix Lestrange, tortured Frank and Alice Longbottom, causing them to be permanently disabled.

Ryan just patted Neville on the shoulder at this time, and he knew that anything he said at this time would be pale. I can only hope that Neville himself can get out of here smoothly.

After eating, Ryan ran to the garbage warehouse in the Room of Requirement, where Hermione was already waiting for him. As soon as she entered, Hermione took today's newspaper and asked, "Did that person do this?"

"Yes, but it's also good news. Ryan told Hermione about the results of his thoughts on the road, which made her feel incomprehensible.

"Good news? Ten dangerous Death Eaters escaped from prison, and you think it's good news? ”

"Of course. "We all know that there weren't many Death Eaters back then, but less than one-third of them were imprisoned in Azkaban. If that person wants to find a manpower, it should be easier to contact the Death Eaters outside. I suspect that the reason why he risked his life to save people in Azkaban was a sign that he hadn't solved his own problems, so he didn't dare to find his subordinates who might not be very reliable if they stayed outside. This also shows from the side that he will lurk for a while during this period of time, and will not appear in the eyes until he is completely ready. ”

This analysis seems to make sense. Okay, what are you asking me to come here today?" Hermione felt a little strange to Ryan for asking her to this place.

"Get a bodyguard for you. Ryan pulled Hermione over to the troll specimen. "I saw this troll before, and I realized that the taxidermy had handled it very well, and that no one had used this thing for a hundred or two years. So I wanted to transform it into an alchemy golem so that you would have something to help you block spells when you fought. ”

"Do you have an alchemy golem?" asked Hermione, looking at the troll.

"Yes, I made it out of a monster I found. With that, Ryan pulled out the two palm-sized basalt deathclaw golems and threw them to the ground. Soon two metallic monsters appeared in front of them.

"It's ugly—" Hermione commented after one glance. "But I can see that this is for war preparation, and it doesn't matter if it looks good or not. I'd love to see your gift for me in a moment. ”

"This puppet is definitely not the same as mine, my golem is more offensive and more defensive if you make a golem out of trolls. ”

"It's a good fit for me. Hermione smiled and nodded. "With this, I shouldn't be holding you back in the next battle. ”

"I'm looking forward to playing alongside you. Ryan said with a slight smile, and then he began the renovation project.

After laying the entire specimen down, Ryan examined the specimen carefully. Because the troll's internal organs had been hollowed out when the specimen was made, Ryan simply filled the gap in the specimen with a tall nut and used runes to bind the two things together, giving the troll some of its plant properties.

Ryan then used magic ink made from several plant branches and leaves to draw runes on the troll's body, while inlaying some of the rune-engraved sunlight gems into the troll's body parts, and using modified stele devouring vines to link these rune gems to form an overall magic cycle.

With each of these steps, Ryan had Hermione inject mana into these things, making the energy circulation structures easier for her to manipulate.

Finally, half an hour before dinner, a new puppet was made. After dripping a drop of blood into a Sunshine Gem, Hermione set the gem into the golem's left chest and closed the Valyrian steel lid with silver runes.

"Recycling. Hermione pronounced the code word in High Valyrian language, and the golem shrank rapidly into a palm-sized, dusty troll. The stone carvings look abstract, like the defects carved by a novice.

"Thank you. Hermione said as she received the stone carving into her bracelet. "At this time of shadow, I think it will come in handy soon. ”
