Chapter 645: Protocols and Pitfalls

"β€”It's a pretty good agreement, we just need to pay some marginal knowledge that isn't very important. But we get a certain amount of potions that we desperately need every month. On top of that, the most important thing is that we can transfer the wounded who need complex magical protection and healing, after all, St. Mungo's is no longer safe, and everything is a bit rudimentary in the new location. After carefully reading the final agreement, Lucius commented seriously.

"It's just a way for the French wizards to keep their enemies out of their borders, and as the most enlightened nation in Europe in terms of blood, they definitely don't want to have a neighbor like the mysterious man. In this case, we pay with blood and lives, and they pay for and manpower. That's fair. "Even if we don't give them anything, we'll give them in the end, but in order to maintain a good relationship between the two sides, it's better for us to give something." ”

"You're right. Lucius said, "I must retract some of my previous prejudices, for you are Muggle-born, but you have a better view of the current situation than most pure-blood wizards. ”

Hearing this, Ryan and Hermione looked at each other and smiled, the reason why they could see so accurately was not because of how talented they were. Rather, it is a wealth of experience after ruling over more than 10 million people in several worlds combined.

Over the next week, Ryan and Hermione began an exchange in Beauxbatons. After discussions with the French alchemists, both sides gained a lot. In addition to this, they also attended several banquets to bond with each other.

Of course, they also encountered personnel sent by the Ministry of Magic in London during the banquet. Although both sides wanted to strangle each other, the good news was that neither Ryan nor the Ministry of Magic personnel who were sent over were the kind of fanatics who couldn't control themselves. So on the territory of the French, they were still able to maintain their composure.

In addition to this, Ryan and Hermione also traveled to multiple worlds to stock up on a large number of supplies. After knowing that the envoy was Lucius Malfoy, they devised a large plan of action.

Lucius Malfoy did not participate in these events, and during this time he had been secretly liaising with pure-blood wizards in France on behalf of Hogsmeade and Hogwarts, as well as individual British exiles. Ryan: Their public activities during this period were actually in a way to cover for Lucius.

By the end of the week, when they were ready to return, Lucius had shown his results, and under his activities, trade with Europe, which had been completely cut off, was reopened, although it was only 1/5 of what it had been in terms of quantity, but at least the immediate problem had been successfully resolved.

After Friday's celebration, Ryan and his family returned to Hogwarts. However, unlike when they came, when they returned, they used their space equipment to procure urgently needed supplies. Even the way of returning has changed somewhat.

After bidding farewell to Madame Maxime, Lane and the others returned to the place where they had landed in France in Beauxbatons' carriage. After watching Beauxbatons' escort drive the carriage away, Ryan pulled the saddle out of his space pocket and unloaded Thestrals.

"Shall we ride the Thestrals back now?" asked Lucius Malfoy, puzzled. "I learned from my sonβ€”"

"No, no, no, it's just that the two of us ride the Thestrals back, and you only need to pay a hair. Ryan waved his finger at Lucius, then looked at his oily pale blonde hair.

"You're going toβ€”" Lucius thought about something all at once, and at the beginning of his sentence, he looked around warily and shifted the subject. "Then I wish you all the best. ”

"Thank you for your blessings. Ryan nodded to Malfoy, and then Hermione stepped forward and disappeared with Malfoy. Ryan, on the other hand, opened the spatial door and summoned the Rose Crystal.

"Good morning, brother. Rose Crystal walked out of the space door and gave Ryan a very elegant skirt salute, and then raised her head. "It's a pleasure to play with you again. ”

"Glad to hear you say that. Ryan opened the spatial door and took out a puppet of his own, "You can enter this puppet in a moment and pretend to be me, but you can give up this disguise as long as you encounter an enemy." ”

"Understood. Rose Crystal nodded, and slipped into the doll. After a few seconds, the Ryan puppet opened its eyes.

"Are you ready?" At this moment, there was a sudden snapping sound next to hermione, and Hermione emerged from the thin smoke, by this time she had sent Malfoy Sr. back to Hogwarts, and promised Lucius Malfoy that she would not appear in front of anyone until they returned.

"Alright. Ryan said, taking the platinum-blonde half-length hair from Hermione's hand, taking it in his mouth and turning into Lucius Malfoy's appearance, and then took out a set of clothes that were the same as the one Lucius Malfoy had just worn on his body.

"Put on this travel cloak. Hermione threw over a gorgeous velvet cloak. "This was given to me by old Malfoy just now, and he thinks it will be difficult for you to disguise his temperament, so he asks you to wear this travel cloak and hood directly, so that the interceptor will not be able to see your face. Also, his preferred spell when he encounters an enemy is the Requisition Charm. ”

"Requisition spell, I'm glad I can impersonate a newly learned spell this time. With that, Ryan draped the traveling cloak over his body, and then put the hood on his head. When he was dressed, he saw that Hermione and Rose Crystal's puppet had worn a similar cloak.

"Let's go!" With Ryan's command, the three Thestrals who had stripped off their coats flew violently with dragon-like wings. The creature's climb speed was no worse than that of a normal broomstick, and soon Ryan found that the glade where he had taken off had turned into a vast sea of green forest.

"Do you think someone is going to kill us today?" The wind in the sky was so strong that it was a little hard to open your mouth, so Hermione simply asked Ryan through the Phoenix brand. "It's not a comfortable thing to fly in the wind for five or six hours in vain. ”

"Definitely. Ryan said, staring at the clear blue sky ahead. "Don't forget that the Malfoys are now at the top of the list of people the mysterious man wants to kill. And although Lucius did notice the concealment when he contacted those people two days ago, he contacted too many people, and in this case, he must not be able to hide the fact that he was traveling with the two of us. ”

"So, the Mystic Man and his men will surely ambush us, for it would be a great provocation for the Mystic Man to let a traitor like Malfoy live there. It will even shake his foundation, because the mysterious man controls his subordinates by virtue of strength and brutality, and once he shows his weakness, his rule will immediately lose stability. ”

"I feel it. At this time, Hermione suddenly said, "There is a strange bird following us about five or six hundred meters behind, which should be the attacker's eyeline." ”

The power of death made Hermione more sensitive to living beings than ordinary people, so the magical creature the size of a ping-pong ball at most couldn't hide its whereabouts.

"They shouldn't be attacking now, this is France. Here, the attack could trigger this unforeseen **. I guess they'll do it after we've been out of France for a while. But it's okay that a lot of our stuff is convenient when no one is watching. Ryan scanned the area he had pointed out and told Hermione that he noticed that they were followed by a small bird that resembled the Golden Flying Man, except that its feathers were black, as if it had been spelled.

"Let's fly a little above the clouds, it's better to be camouflaged a little more like it. After making sure that someone was watching, Ryan and the others climbed above the clouds and flew west.
