Chapter 269: Dumbledore's Command
"Tut, take it easy, Mr. Delix," he said, turning to the gray-haired man with a kind smile, "I met you, at the ball that Minister Fudge had given the year before. Of course, my father said that you were a very good Auror. However, it was only an Auror. If you want to use violence, I'll resist. ”
The man, Delix, blinked comically. He looked at Fudge again, but this time he seemed to be hoping for instructions on what to do next. "So," Fudge sneered, returning to normalcy, "you're going to deal with Drals, Shackle, Dolores, and me alone, and of course, maybe Dumbledore and Professor McGonagall?" ”
Augustus's hand in the pocket of his robe moved slightly, and Delix hurriedly stopped in front of Fudge, "No, you're right, it seems like a stupid decision to deal with so many wizards alone. However, how do you know if Dumbledore, the chief mage of the Wizengamot, has also joined the Ulius Army, and maybe he is also the honorary director of the Ulius Army. ”
Fudge's fat face gradually turned pale, and he glanced at Dumbledore with a thief's heart, his gaze falling on Dumbledore's obscure old face, and his heart hanging in mid-air went up and down. "No way, how could Dumbledore join the Army of Julius, he didn't have to. Unless," Fudge's chubby face suddenly showed a look of shock! "Since the beginning of last semester, you have already planned a qiē? The last project of the Triwizard Tournament is a scene between you and Augustus? So, fabricated the news of the Dark Lord's resurrection, and then pointed the finger at the Ministry of Magic led by me, and took advantage of the fear of the Dark Lord in the wizarding world to secretly organize an underground army, and finally, achieve the goal of overthrowing the regime?!! ”
Augustus shrugged his shoulders at Dumbledore in acknowledging his surprise. Dumbledore's dark blue pupils were hidden in the half-moon glasses, revealing a hint of playfulness, and then he spoke, "It's unbelievable, Minister Fudge's reasoning skills are really amazing, and such a small clue can deduce the whole conspiracy veins clearly." It's really commendable. ”
"You mean," Fudge said with a shudder, pointing at Dumbledore, "you admit it?" Do you admit that you and Augustus were both the masterminds of the conspiracy? And, as he said, you are now an honorary director of the Ulius Army? Ready to rely on this army to secretly overthrow the Ministry of Magic? ”
"Alas, when people are old, they just have bad memories," Dumbledore touched his high nose in annoyance, "Speaking of honorary directors, you see, what a noble title, you are right, working with the heirs of the oldest families in the wizarding world, working hard for a noble cause, makes me feel as if I am a few years younger." ”
"Good, good, great!" Fudge slapped the table excitedly, the happy expression on his face overflowing, obviously, stunned by the smooth development of things.
"Enough!" Fudge said as he drew his wand, "Dallux! Shakel! Get him! ”
A silver flash swirled around the room; With a loud bang like a cannon, the floor shook; A hand grabbed the back of Harry's neck and pushed him to the floor, and a second silver flash exploded; Several portraits shouted, Fawkes let out a scream, and the air was filled with dust. Harry coughed in the dust and saw a vague figure rumble to the ground in front of him; There was a scream, followed by a tom, and someone shouted, "No! Then there was the sound of glass breaking, the sound of dragging feet and walking desperately, and a **?? A burst of calm followed.
Harry struggled to roll over to see who had strangled him to the point of almost being out of breath, and he saw Professor McGonagall curled up beside him; It was she who kept Harry and Marietta out of danger. The dust floating in the air fell gently on them. Harry was a little out of breath, and as far as he could see, Dumbledore and Augustus, were standing at their desks looking at the men who had fallen to the ground.
"Are you alright?" Dumbledore asked.
"It's fine!" Professor McGonagall said, pulling Harry and Marietta up as she stood up.
The dust is gradually dissipating. The mutilated office loomed into view: Dumbledore's desk had flipped upside down, the slender table had been knocked to the floor, and the silverware on the table had been broken. Fudge, Umbridge, Kingsley, and Dlux lay motionless on the floor. Phoenix Fawkes flew in a large circle above their heads, whining softly.
"It's a shame I had to spell Kingsley, or it would look too suspicious," Dumbledore whispered.
"Well, time is running out, they'll all wake up soon, I think, Mister Dumbledore and I have to get out of here right away, and it's better not to let them know that we have time to talk - you have to pretend that time hasn't changed, like they've just been knocked to the ground, and they won't remember-" Augustus nodded slightly, turning to look at Dumbledore.
"Where are you going?" Professor McGonagall whispered, "Grimmauld Place? ”
"Of course not," Augustus waved his hand slightly, his gaze moving over the few people lying on the ground and falling on Harry, "Professor Dumbledore and I have already had a detailed discussion using the mind-oriented channel, and you don't need to know where we're going. Importantly, Harry, the gathering of the Ulius Army will be suspended indefinitely, and you need to tell every member of the organization to maintain the cultivation of elemental magic during my absence. Finally, good luck to you guys. ”
Turning, Augustus stood beside Fawkes, patiently surveying the immortal bird.
"Listen to me, Harry," Dumbledore kindly touched Potter's forehead, "you have to do your best to learn Occlumency, do you understand what I mean?" Do exactly what Professor Snape tells you to do, and practice Occlumency, especially every night before you go to bed, so that you can close your mind and stop having nightmares - you will soon know why, but you must assure me - "
The man, Delix, was moving. Dumbledore grabbed Harry's wrist.
"Remember—close your brain—"
The scar on Harry's forehead suddenly ached, and he felt the terrible snake-like feeling again, eager to attack Dumbledore, bite him, hurt him—" - you'll understand. Dumbledore whispered.
Fawkes circled around the office before flying low over Dumbledore. Dumbledore let go of Harry, raised one hand to hold the phoenix's long golden tail tightly, and the other grabbed Augustus, and with a burst of flame, the two of them disappeared.
