Chapter 514: Retreat
"I can't remember exactly what they were, but at least I'm sure there are no fewer of them. Roger's words completely dispelled Professor McGonagall's hopeful looks.
"What about the Demon King?" Dumbledore asked, "How powerful will it be?"
"I'm not very good at comparison..."The boy touched his chin and thought and said: "The boss's ability is also high and low, and it should be no problem to level Hogwarts a little bit, and it won't be difficult to sink the island of England if it doesn't slip away, no matter how powerful it is, I haven't seen it... Probably destroying the world, right?"
"......" The people who could hear Roger talking looked at each other, if what this thing said was true, then it was the right way to get a yarn and run away as soon as possible.
"And what are we going to do now, Albus?" Professor McGonagall looked at Dumbledore, waiting for the school leader to come up with an idea.
"As we feared, Hogwarts is no longer safe," Dumbledore said decisively, "The lives of the students are at stake, and we can't afford to let them stay here anymore." ”
"Actually, it's not that serious," Roger quickly interjected when he heard that he was going to drive people away: "Those big bosses won't necessarily appear here..."
"If it happens, it will be a disaster for the entire wizarding world," Old Deng said solemnly.
The largest wizarding school in England, along with many other wizarding schools, was wiped out at the same time, and you can imagine how much turmoil this will cause, and even cause a cultural gap in the wizarding world in England!
"McGonagall, you'll oversee the evacuation, Hagrid, you go to the hospital and tell the people there about the situation, and then lead them to any of the house's break rooms and get out of here.
Snape, Flitwick, and Professor Sprout, you and I will keep the students safe. Dumbledore finished his work and stood on the high podium in front of the Great Hall to address everyone, with every pair of eyes of the students below staring at him.
"Prefect, after hearing my order, organize the students of your house to take them to their respective Hogwarts common rooms in an orderly manner, and use the fireplace inside to go home... Students who do not have a connection to the Floo network at home can go to other classmates first. He exclaimed, "As a reminder, you are not allowed to enter the school until you have been notified of the start of Hogwarts." ”
Many of the students looked stunned, but their expressions weren't very good before.
Neville suddenly stood up from the Hoglan Ffindor table and shouted, "What if we stay and fight first, sir?"
His words won some applause, and Roger glanced at Harry, Hermione, Ginny, and the twins in response.
His grandmother put her hand on her grandson's shoulder with a proud face: "This is what the Longbottom family should look like, your parents will be proud of your choice." ”
Dumbledore glanced at Neville and the others, a smile on his lips, "Admirable courage, you guys... But you don't need your help here, the Ministry of Magic will be sending people over soon, and the only thing you have to do is get home safely and have this unusual holiday, though I hope you don't pray for a longer vacation when school starts. ”
Lao Deng humorously made a little joke, which made the melon-eating students in the auditorium who didn't know the truth relax a lot, although the Ministry of Magic was inefficient, and the three major cases last year still have no eyebrows, but in this dangerous situation, it is most reassuring for organized violent agencies to intervene.
"I've activated the defensive magic around the castle, but I don't know how long I'll be able to withstand this unknown monster," Dumbledore added, "so I ask you to act quickly and calmly, and listen to the prefects." ”
The existence of the principal seems to give everyone a backbone, after all, Lao Deng's name is still very loud, and the prefects of the four academies have all stood up and greeted the students of their respective academies with ease.
After a while, the mixed students returned to their respective tables and stood up, and Professor McGonagall said clearly and crisply, "Ravenclaw students, follow..."
Professor Flitwick stood at the front of the students of their house with his wand in hand.
"Leave the auditorium with Professor Flitwick. ”
There was a sound of benches colliding and rubbing, and the Ravenclaws not far from the auditorium left one after another.
"Slytherin, keep up!" Professor McGonagall exclaimed. Snape led the students to the basement.
The Great Hall gradually emptied as the personnel left, leaving Gryffindor last, with Professor McGonagall and Dumbledore escorting them upstairs.
This is probably a little selfish on the part of McGonagall and Old Deng, who cares about Harry's safety and chooses to be in charge of Gryffindor's team, while Professor McGonagall cares about all the Gryffindor students and keeps them to the end so that she can follow up and protect herself.
Professor McGonagall led the way in front, and Dumbledore pressed in behind, much better than other houses.
Hermione, they were sitting near the door, so they were now at the front. Roger was left behind, walking with Dumbledore, a.
Dumbledore didn't seem overly vigilant, but every time he passed through the window of the hallway, he looked at the thick fog outside.
"You really don't need my help?" Roger asked on the side, a little suspicious of being speechless, "I don't know what will appear, but at least I can remember some information about those demons when I see it." ”
Lao Deng looked at the boy seriously, shook his head and said, "No, you are still just a child, there is no need to bring you closer to this dangerous situation." ”
"You know, I'm not a kid. ”
"You are a child in my eyes and in the eyes of others. Dumbledore said with a smile.
Roger smacked his lips, it made sense, he was speechless...
With Lao Deng's age, even if Roger is now sixty years old, he is qualified to say that he is a child, and in the eyes of other people who don't know the truth, Roger's age is the most convincing.
It seemed that the castle's defensive magic had worked, and none of the murderous demons appeared, allowing them to make their way back to the common room without any danger.
As soon as they arrived at their destination, Hermione and the others gave up their position in the queue to let the freshmen go first, and Roger took the opportunity to run back to the dormitory, ripped off his blood-stained robe, changed into casual jeans and a T-shirt, and dug out the hidden locket and tiara, and put it in his pocket.
