In the October sunshine, in an estate in the middle of the British Isles. Ryan, Hermione, Rose Crystal, and Jill, who rarely appears in front of everyone, sat around the round table in the tea room and enjoyed afternoon tea, while listening to what Jill had found out about in London these days. As a native of London, Jill does have an advantage when it comes to gathering intelligence.

"Now the attacker is basically identified. Jill said after putting down the teacup. "I've been lurking outside Diagon Alley and the newly repaired Ministry of Magic for the past few days, and from the conversations of the people there, I can be pretty sure of it. The attackers in this operation were mainly from the group of mercenaries, who had suffered heavy losses after the previous failed attack on Hogsmeade, so after escaping, they released the pressure on those innocents. ”

"Other than that, the Aurors of the Ministry of Magic have done their best this time. Jill continued, "According to what I have learned, the group of dark wizards has only been wreaking havoc in Poka Village for seven minutes before they encounter the Aurors sent by the Hogsmeade Ministry of Magic. Had it not been for the timely arrival of these Aurors, the village would have suffered even more damage. ”

"If you consider that Hogsmeade had just experienced an attack at that time, they had reacted very quickly. Hermione nodded. "This also confirms that at least there is no hidden ghost on our side in this attack. ”

"That's a good thing, because we just have to fight and don't have to think too much about relationships. Ryan smiled, it was a simple matter to simply fight the enemy, but when it came to internal rape, there were a series of complex things to deal with.

"Our first goal is here. Ryan pulled out a map of Europe and nodded. Everyone came up, and it turned out that the place where Ryan pointed with his hand was Calais, France. According to the situation of Jill's investigation in the past few days, that group of dark wizards usually do not stay in the already depressed London wizarding world, but choose to live in prosperous France. There was a pure-blood wizard estate near Calais, and Gil followed two of the dark wizards and found that all the dark wizard mercenaries lived there. ”

"Why did they live in France?" asked Rose Crystal, curious. "I mean, they were hired by the Dark Lord to fight, so why don't these people live in the UK. ”

"It's understandable, you can't expect this kind of scum to have the habit of saving money. For them, it is natural to enjoy the wealth they have acquired. Hermione bowed her head slightly and explained to the doll. "Compared to the depressed wizarding world of London, the thriving French wizarding world is more suitable for them to spend their gold gallons. ”

"In addition, Calais is the closest French region to the United Kingdom, and even the most ordinary wizard can easily use the illusion to cross the English Channel to reach England. So living in France does not prevent them from acting in the UK. Jill added, "I discovered this by possessing two dark wizards. ”

"Will these dark wizards be able to openly shop on the streets?" Rose Crystal's eyes widened, and her two purple eyes shimmered like amethysts. "And where did the French Aurors go?"

"They are indeed free to travel the streets. Jill spread her hands and gave a helpless expression. "As for the French Aurors, they pretended not to see the Death Eaters on the arms of these dark wizards. At the same time, these dark wizards also gave face to the French, and they never took the initiative to cause trouble in France. ”

"Oh, the French—" Ryan and Hermione looked at each other and shook their heads at the same time, for the British, the French word is very explanatory.

"So what's the most important thing we need to pay attention to in this operation?" asked Hermione, picking up the materials that Jill had placed there. "At the very least, 14 dark wizards who are not organized enough are definitely no match for us. ”

"Our core problem is that this operation must not be brought to the attention of the French Ministry of Magic. Otherwise, it is likely that the Aurors of the French Ministry of Magic will join the battle as a hostile third party. "After all, for the French, they can even choose to default to the Ministry of Magic in London, which is under the leadership of the mysterious man, as the representative of the British wizarding community in order to ensure their own safety." So in order to avoid giving the Mystics an excuse to invade France, it is also very likely that they will directly move against us to prevent us from attacking the Mystics' subordinates. ”

"Then can we take action to disable the French Ministry of Magic in advance?" asked Gil, "If my uncle can open up all my weapons to me, I promise—"

"The French, though not friends, are not enemies either. Ryan stroked Jill's silver hair vigorously. "It's not that time yet, the last British trebuchet operation has taught us enough that sometimes taking the initiative will only lead to more enemies. Also, don't keep thinking about what's in the few low-level arsenals in the Fallout world. They have destroyed one world, and I don't want to see the next one destroyed. ”

"Leave those men to me, and you just have to stop them from escaping. Hermione said suddenly. "I learned a powerful spell from Lady Silvermoon last time, and now I want to give it a try. ”

"If you're sure, I don't have an opinion. Ryan and Hermione looked at each other, and nodded slowly after seeing the persistence and determination in her eyes. "I'll do my best to help you. ”

On the third day after the massacre in the village of Poka, at half past two in the morning. Ryan and the others set off from their manor and went straight to a hill near the manor on the edge of the port of Calais, France, in a stealth spaceship.

"Is that down here? They're still a little careless. Standing on the hill, Ryan was surprised to find that the manor had only some common defensive magic, except for the simplest Muggle banishment spells and some invisible spells, and did not have the complex defenses he imagined.

"It's not careless. Jill said. "The French, though they may acquiesce to their inhabitation here, will not allow them to build a fortress on their own territory. Not to mention that in the last war, the forces led by the Uncle's headmaster, Mr. Dumbledore, rarely took the initiative to attack, so for the Dark Lord's side, excessive defense was not necessary. ”

"So this time, we're going to change their perspective, we're going to keep them in fear all the time. Ryan said. "Only in this way can they know that there are things that cannot be done, and that they can be stopped from harming innocents further." ”

After speaking, Ryan took out a dozen silver balls the size of ping pong balls from the space bag and threw them into the air, and soon the small balls stretched out their small wings and vibrated at high speed, and then flew around the manor.

"Why does this look like a golden snitch?" asked Hermione, looking at the silver ball flying away, "but it feels a little different from the golden snitch." ”

"This is a transformation of the Golden Snitch that I made after I got an abandoned Snitch earlier. Ryan introduced, and then pulled out a gold plate encrusted with gems and held it in his hand. "Unlike the original Golden Snitch, this new small flying magic item is equipped with a dual detector of optical and magical power, which can detect the general situation of a small space in a short period of time if there are multiple systems in one. ”

As they spoke, the silver balls were already in place. Soon, a 3D map of sky blue phantoms was projected above the gold plate.

"Is this the manor down there?" Hermione looked curiously at the phantom, then at the manor not far away in the moonlight. "But what are these light and dark spots of light on the map and the lines connecting them?"
