Chapter 251 249 How Harry Didn't Die

Chapter 251 249. How Harry didn't die...

This magical plant research institute in Grenoble is very important to the Wizarding World, which has already established a firm foothold in France.

The dozens of greenhouses built here to cultivate hundreds of magical plants supply nearly 70% of the herbs used in the French Magic Injury Hospital, the Potions Research Office, and the Beauxbatons Herbology Course.

Once this place is taken, the Wizarding World can completely alleviate its dependence on the materials provided by Grindelwald in Northern Europe, achieve self-sufficiency in the distribution of herbs and potions, and cause great trouble to the French Ministry of Magic.

It is precisely because of the importance of this place that the operation responsible for the attack on this area is led by Lily and Kingsley.

The smoke caused great trouble to the employees hiding in this greenhouse. Before coming here, Lily and her team had already set up anti-apparition magic in advance, limiting their escape route.

Then, together with others, they surrounded and drove all the wizards in charge of this research institute into the same greenhouse. Finally, the two of them and others blocked the front and back exits respectively, intending to let none of these people escape.

As the largest herbal cultivation site in the French magic world, with such a rich oil and water, those who stayed here were of course from pure-blood wizard families who had already gained power after Voldemort's arrival.

They were all the biggest beneficiaries after following Voldemort. They knew that even if they surrendered, they would inevitably be liquidated. Therefore, even if they were forced into such a desperate situation, they did not give up resistance.

The plan to temporarily block Lily and others by relying on the long creeper was destroyed by the smoke spell. The wizard, who was trapped in the center of the greenhouse, was already desperate and picked up a potted plant with large leaves that looked very ordinary from the outside.

"Since there is no way to survive, let everyone die here!"

He yelled like crazy, and then under the horrified eyes of his companions around him, he suddenly exerted force and pulled out the grass roots buried in the flowerpot!

An extremely ugly baby face emerged from the soil. Its limbs were in the form of roots, but the whole body maintained a basic human shape.

The most important thing is that after this ugly humanoid plant was pulled out of the flowerpot, it let out a scream that seemed to tear the eardrums!

"Ah!!!"

A sound wave that can almost be seen with the naked eye, centered on the humanoid plant, radiated in all directions!

The wizard who pulled it out of the soil with his own hands, almost at the moment the sound sounded, the whole person collapsed to the ground in a daze, his body twitching constantly, and blood gushed out of his eyes, ears, nose, and mouth!

The French Ministry of Magic employees who followed him could not escape such a bad fate. Even the smoke that filled the greenhouse was driven away by the sound waves, leaving the area around the humanoid plant empty in an instant.

However, this scream had no effect on the people brought by Lily and Kingsley. Before coming to this plant research institute, they had rehearsed all possible situations, including this adult mandrake.

This herb is very precious, but the sound it makes is also deadly enough, especially the adult mandrake, which is an extremely dangerous plant.

The employees stationed here may not have any great skills, but they can use these magical plants cultivated in the greenhouse to create some unexpected troubles.

But this mandrake was not beyond Lily's expectations. After forcing the group of people into the greenhouse, Lily asked everyone to wear the cotton wool earmuffs they had prepared in advance.

Both exits were blocked. Even if they gave up hearing, it would not affect their spellcasting and capture. Such preventive measures could save many lives.

Except for a few wizards on the wizard level who were stimulated by the faint sound that penetrated through the earmuffs and felt a little dizzy, most of them were unharmed.

Lily dispersed the smoke in the greenhouse, revealing a miserable scene inside.

The plants placed on the wooden racks and planted in flower pots were scattered all over the ground. The flower pots were all shattered by the extremely lethal sound of the mandrake. In the land, those plants that seemed to have their own consciousness all wanted to bury all their stems and leaves in the soil, hoping to escape such torture.

The employees of the French Ministry of Magic had fallen to the ground in pieces. Almost all of them were bleeding from all seven orifices and had no breath. Only one or two people were still alive because their willpower was strong enough and their bodies were still twitching unconsciously.

But even if these two people were still alive, the mental damage caused by the mandrake was permanent, basically turning them into idiots.

For the miserable situation of these people, Lily, Kingsley and the people who followed them did not show any sympathy on their faces.

Maybe there were kindhearted wizards who believed the words of those pureblood wizards who were captured, knelt on the ground and cried bitterly, saying that they were only forced to torture Muggles. But after seeing what happened to those who were locked up in the correctional facility, no one would pity the purebloods working in the Ministry of Magic.

Even if some of them really didn't oppress the Muggles themselves, as long as they were in such a position, it was a kind of oppression in itself.

Leaving someone to clean up the mess on the ground, Lily and Kingsley went to the place where the accounts were stored in the institute, waiting for Leon to send someone to sort out and receive all the herbs and materials in the institute.

Looking at the parchment filled with the names of various herbs, which seemed to have no end, Kingsley still felt like he was dreaming.

"We have been chased around like stray dogs for so many years, but overnight, we have the opportunity to counterattack."

Listening to his words of emotion, Lily's face did not show any expression, but her hands were obviously stronger than before when she was summarizing the accounts.

She did not speak, but she thought of Jon unconsciously.

She was naturally deeply impressed by the boy she brought to Hogwarts herself, not only because of his outstanding talent and ability.

Every time Lily saw his clear eyes, she could not help but think of her son.

It was for this reason that she half-lent and half-gave the invisibility cloak that had been passed down in the Potter family to John, although she did not express anything in her words or emotions.

Lily sorted out the information in her hand without saying a word, thinking silently in her heart.

If Harry was still alive, he should be about the same age as John, right?
