Chapter 775: Great Change
"Avada suo!"
"Iron Armor!"
"Disarm!"
"The fire is raging!"
......
The originally bustling streets of London were turned into dangerous battlefields in the blink of an eye when wizards attacked each other, and several ordinary people who didn't have time to run away died directly in the terrible spells fired by the wand, and even their bodies were blown to pieces.
Luckily, it's just a short walk from the British Ministry of Magic.
When Luo Ao found out that the dignified Minister of Magic had been assassinated at the door of his house, he immediately did not hesitate to go out and rely on the numerical advantage to suppress the opponent back.
Looking at the figure he was so familiar with, Cornelius Fudge finally couldn't help but pull his throat and ask in a loud voice, "Albus, is that you? Tell me, why did you do this?"
"Hmph, ignorant fool, you don't understand anything. The clone sneered, and directly cast the illusion shifter and disappeared in place.
Although the fierce battle lasted only a short time, three unlucky ones had already died, and countless more were injured.
It can be said that he single-handedly beat most of the Ministry of Magic, and he can leave as soon as he wants, and no one can stop him at all, which is completely in line with the understanding of most wizards about Albus Dumbledore.
It is impossible to think of anyone else who could do this except for the Hogwarts Headmaster, who defeated the famous dark wizard Gellert Grindelwald in a duel and made Voldemort feel extremely jealous.
When Cornelius Fudge dragged his tired body back to the office, the first thing he did was to call an emergency meeting, glaring at two bloodshot eyes and roaring: "The eighth! This is already the eighth attack in just one month! Everyone killed was a staff member of the ministry! Can anyone tell me what we're going to do next? Just announce the disbandment?"
"Sir, please calm down, things are not as bad as you think. Arthur Weasley tried to calm Fudge's furious anger.
As a die-hard supporter of Dumbledore, he never thought that the kind old man would risk the world's condemnation to assassinate the staff of the Ministry of Magic.
"Shut up, Arthur, I know what you're trying to say, but the problem is that the evidence is in front of you, do you want to defend him?" asked Cornelius Fudge through gritted teeth.
In normal times, he might have used the relationship between the Weasleys and Dumbledore to ease the tension between the two, but now, he just wanted to enlist more support and take down the enemy who tried to kill him in one fell swoop.
Especially in the last few years, he had always felt that Dumbledore was snooping on his rights as Minister of Magic, and the assassination just now had brought this accumulated dissatisfaction to a critical point.
Few people can remain calm in the face of power, and Cornelius Fordge Sr. is no exception.
"Honorable Minister, I think we should sign a wanted warrant immediately! Send all the Luo Ao to arrest Albus Dumbledore! The more this time, the more the Ministry of Magic must take the toughest attitude, otherwise if we are weak and lose the trust of the people, he can use his great prestige to force us to make concessions, or even overthrow the Ministry of Magic and reorganize. Rufus Scrimgeur, the head of the Auror Office, did not hesitate to offer his opinion.
Unlike Arthur, he was a hardliner through and through, and he was never interested in fame seekers like Dumbledore.
"Well said! I agree with Scrimgeur's suggestion. It is true that Dumbledore had saved the wizarding world by defeating the Dark Wizard many times before, but that was no excuse for him to escape justice. An old woman in her fifties hurriedly nodded.
Unlike the previous two speakers, behind her stood the aristocratic faction led by Lucius Malfoy, who had been waiting for the right opportunity in recent times, and now that the opportunity arises, of course, it will not be easily missed.
Another male next to him exchanged a look with the former, and echoed: "I agree, look at what Dumbledore has done at Hogwarts all these years? Not only did he squander the school's assets in a reckless manner, but he also ignored the protests of the school board many times, and regarded the best magic school in Britain as his own private property, and now he actually had the audacity to assassinate the Minister of Magic in public. He deserves to be sentenced to death. ”
"Ladies and gentlemen, I need to warn you! We don't have any concrete proof that that guy is Dumbledore. Seeing that the situation was getting more and more unfavorable, Arthur Weasley immediately stepped forward and tried to change the subject.
He couldn't believe what a terrible disaster it would be for Dumbledore and Hogwarts as a whole if the Ministry of Magic signed a wanted warrant.
"No, Arthur, we already have enough proof. Have you forgotten that when I called Albus the name, he didn't directly deny it. And besides Dumbledore, can you find a second wizard who can easily leave under the siege of a dozen Luo Ao?" Connelly Fudge asked with a sneer.
"Yes! Have you forgotten the mysterious death of more than a dozen Luo Ao a few years ago......? This is a conspiracy to blame Dumbledore behind the scenes. ”
"That's enough! Arthur Weasley, I now announce that you've been fired in my capacity as Minister of Magic. Get out of here! From now on, the Ministry of Magic doesn't need Dumbledore's dogs. Rufus, I authorize you to immediately arrest Albus Dumbledore, and kill him if he dares to resist. The British wizarding community has tolerated his misdeeds for too long, and it's time for everyone to understand that Dumbledore was just a mortal and had no standing above the law. ”
As he said this, Cornelius Fudge clenched his fists, and his eyes burst into chilling madness.
"Rest assured, Mr. Minister, I promise that Dumbledore will be apprehended. The head of the Auror Office stood up and bowed slightly, then strode away into the hallway outside the door.
Greedy!
Ambition!
Eat one's heart out!
Vanity!
As long as human beings exist for a day, they will never be able to get rid of their innate nature.
No matter how they disguise it, they will inevitably hate and hate those minorities who are smarter and better than themselves.
With a little channeling, this sentiment can turn into a massive and targeted movement of isolation and exclusion.
More than 2,000 years ago, in ancient Greece, the citizens of the city-state of Athens exiled their best leaders in the name of opposing the dictatorship.
Naturally, the current British wizarding community could attack Dumbledore for the same reason, and even condemn him to Azkaban.
In fact, this incident just exposed the dark psychology of the public described in the book "The Rabble", and Zhang Cheng, the mastermind behind the scenes, only played a role in guiding and promoting.
He probably didn't expect that not long after the whole project was launched, Dumbledore had become a thorn in the side and a thorn in the flesh of most of the bureaucrats of the Ministry of Magic......
