Chapter 466 464. Ridiculous but correct prophecy

"Hurry up, report this news to Director Karkaroff!"

The entire Auror Command of the British Ministry of Magic was in chaos. At the beginning of the public trial, the Aurors were still discussing that the actions of the Witch Horizon were purely self-deception and self-consolation, using the lives of these captured pure-bloods to consolidate the rule of the new French Ministry of Magic.

During the public trial, the pure-bloods or half-bloods who were hanged on the gallows wailed miserably, which made the Aurors who were monitoring the public trial feel sympathetic.

In addition, all the crimes that these criminals described themselves, which could be said to be evil deeds that people could not bear to hear, made the Aurors feel a strange feeling of pity, but they felt that they were not qualified to have such emotions.

So when the public trial was going on for noon, many Aurors who were originally interested in squatting in front of the radio had already found excuses to leave, leaving only the two people who were designated to record the content of the public trial.

But when Dumbledore began to speak, the two Aurors in charge of recording gathered everyone in the office together.

And when they finished listening to Dumbledore's speech, everyone stared blankly, not knowing what to say.

At this time, some people who had reacted rushed out of the Auror Command Center and found Karkaroff, who should be in the meeting in the Minister's office.

"They are declaring war on us! This is a declaration of war!"

The face of the Auror leader whose status was only lower than Karkaroff was extremely ugly. Whether it was the Wizarding Front or France, many people had not changed their mentality, and the same was true in the UK.

They all thought that Dumbledore and his group, who had been exiled in Britain for nine years, could organize such a force only two years after arriving in France. They not only completely destroyed Voldemort's plan to rule Britain and France, but also declared war first and wanted to attack the British mainland directly.

The Aurors who heard the whole news at the first time thought that Dumbledore was overestimating his own abilities.

But soon they recalled the compromise Voldemort made to Dumbledore after losing the Triwizard Tournament this year.

Some British wizards have learned that before the result of the Triwizard Tournament came out, their master and Dumbledore seemed to have started a duel in the French Ministry of Magic, but there was no news about the result of that duel.

But even if there was no news, Voldemort's compromise later was actually the most straightforward proof.

The Aurors who thought of this suddenly realized something.

The wind direction in the magic world seems to have really changed. If three years ago, the carriage of Hogwarts was still in exile on British soil, and the Order of the Phoenix was like a group of rats in their eyes and could only carry out some small-scale activities everywhere, they were in the strategic offensive stage of all-round victory.

Then after Dumbledore came to France and launched the battle to attack the correctional institution, the situation on both sides changed to strategic balance.

And now, after the public trial, Dumbledore's speech in front of almost all wizards in Europe declared the strategic offensive of the wizard level line, and the defense of the British Ministry of Magic began!

In these three stages, two huge turning points are clearly visible.

The first turning point was the loss of the correctional institution, and the second turning point was the failure of the Triwizard Tournament.

So who is responsible for these two failures?

Was it Voldemort who was too aggressive, or what happened to Dumbledore?

Few people know the inside story. It is well known that Jon won the Triwizard Tournament.

But the key role he played in the battle of the reformatory is still unknown.

So few people think that the key to the entire situation in Britain and France is on John. To this day, many people still think that no matter how talented John is, he is just the next generation of heirs that Dumbledore is trying his best to cultivate.

Although his current performance is dazzling and amazing, it is far from being able to have such an important impact on such a major situation in the wizarding world.

And now, Dumbledore has declared war on the British Ministry of Magic on behalf of the entire wizarding front, which of course makes the Aurors of the entire Auror Command become extremely chaotic.

Soon Karkaroff, who was still in a meeting in the Minister's office, returned to the command.

The speech about Dumbledore on the radio has ended, but this part of the content has long been recorded by the Auror in charge of recording the entire speech, so Karkaroff heard all of it as soon as he came back.

"Give me the recording."

He almost forced out these words, and then the Auror hurriedly handed the recording to him. Karkaroff did not stop for a moment, he turned around and used Apparition to leave the Auror Headquarters.

Everyone present knew what he was going to do. Such a big thing must be reported to the British master as soon as possible.

And this news spread throughout the British Ministry of Magic in a very short time.

Most of the half-bloods were in a panic, and the pure-bloods were in a very bad mood.

They did not hate war. If they really hated it, they would not have worked so hard in the war to occupy France. What they hated was that the flames of war burned to the British mainland.

Foreign wars can bring greater wealth to pure-blood families who have almost cut the cake and have stable channels and status for obtaining benefits.

However, the nature of internal wars is completely different. No one knows how big the war will burn, which means that any pure-blood family that survives in the UK is in danger of being physically destroyed.

And even if the war is won in the end, their losses will definitely be very heavy.

So after hearing Dumbledore declare war on the British Ministry of Magic, no pure-blood will be happy about it. This means that let alone getting a bigger piece of the cake, the cake table that originally belonged to them will be overturned.

Among them, some people, even if they dare not say it directly, have already attributed all this to their current master in their hearts, and at the same time, they also know more clearly that there is no future for following their current master, and it is very likely that they will even have to pay for their lives.

Just when Britain heard the news and was in chaos.

Of course, other magical governments in Europe also paid attention to today's public trial, and they all heard Dumbledore's final declaration.

Even though some people had expected this day to happen sooner or later, no one could have imagined that it would happen so soon.

Even before Christmas this year, Dumbledore was about to start a new round of war.

And this time the situation was completely reversed. The previous wizard-horizon line was like standing on the edge of a cliff. If they were pushed back one step, they would lose everything. Now it was Voldemort's side that was caught in this situation.

As long as this war started in the UK, once Voldemort was defeated, all his previous operations over the past decade would be burned to ashes, and he would return to the situation of having nothing.

Grindelwald, who was far away in the northernmost part of Europe, of course heard today's broadcast.

But he rarely stayed in Durmstrang recently, but stayed in Hans's dilapidated monastery.

After listening to Dumbledore's final declaration of war, Grindelwald silently turned off the radio and turned to Hans and Eric who were standing behind him with their heads down.

"The war we expected is about to begin, so we can prepare for the second phase of our plan."

Hans and Eric knelt on one knee together.

"We are willing to follow all your instructions!"

"Disclose some of the experiments and plans in the Arctic to the core members of the Witch Party. At the same time, in Finland, you select the first suitable site to start the second phase, and completely close and isolate it. Remember, you must handle the relationship with the Muggle government in the meantime. Our biggest advantage is that they don't know much about our existence. This is the only benefit the Statute of Secrecy brings us."

The outside world has experienced many unknown turmoil and changes because of Dumbledore's declaration of war today. The French Witch Front headquarters has not received the news yet.

But their own focus is not here, because the declaration of war has never been the beginning of a war, but it has unveiled the dispute that has long been hidden in the dark.

"Activate all the safe houses we left in the UK, except for some that are no longer usable, and use the remaining ones as temporary bases."

"Contact all our contacts in Diagon Alley, Knockturn Alley and Hogsmeade, and ask them to gather as much supplies as possible in the UK. Soon all these channels will be cut off."

"Notify all the senior executives and confirm the points we will withdraw from and the fastest places to occupy after a large number of people enter the UK. The action will be scheduled for sunrise tomorrow."

"Let the leading wizard team determine the landing point of their Apparition, and after landing, destroy the Apparition supervision of the Department of Magical Transportation over the entire UK as quickly as possible."

"The work of cracking the UK's domestic Floo network must also continue. Even if our people cannot use it, their Floo network must be destroyed to cut off the transportation of personnel and materials."

"."

The entire headquarters of the Wizarding Line became busy. Jon followed Dumbledore through one office after another where people kept coming in and out, and finally entered his own room.

After returning to the room, Dumbledore closed the door, isolating all the noise from the outside world, and solemnly asked Jon to sit down opposite him.

"Although I have turned Hogwarts into a five-year school, you will still be a student after the start of the school, and you have not graduated from the school yet. But everyone, including me, knows that we cannot treat you as an ordinary fifth-year student, and in the next war, you also have a mission that no one can replace."

Dumbledore's voice was very heavy, and he did not blink while speaking, always staring at Jon.

Jon did not avoid his eyes, because he knew very well that Dumbledore would definitely give him a different task.

"Don't worry, professor, I am more prepared than anyone else."

Dumbledore nodded. Of course, he was always at ease with Jon.

"Under my instructions, Horace has secured a job in the Department of Mysteries from Voldemort. After retiring from the position of Director of the National Department of Magical Affairs, Voldemort has always confined him to the Minister's Office as a consultant, but later because of Snape's matter, you also know that he had been making potions for another Voldemort before, and Horace re-entered the vision of the current Voldemort. He did not forget that his mentor was one of the best potion professors in Hogwarts. So the task of cracking Snape's potion was handed over to him."

"And this potion is deeply related to something in the Department of Mysteries of the Ministry of Magic, that is, the bottle of golden sand that Snape gave you before his death. Gravel. This is a very important thing, Jon, so important that Voldemort even had to hide his other self. At first, I thought it was just a means of immortality that he discovered later, but after studying the bottle of gravel in depth, I realized that it was not just that. "

"So I told Horace to transfer to the Department of Mysteries as deputy director on the pretext that Voldemort was studying the bottle of potion left by Snape. This is the highest position he can get. Taking over the war that has begun can also provide cover in disguise. You have to sneak into the British Ministry of Magic and go to the Department of Mysteries with Horace to work, and find out the room and information where the bottle of gravel was once stored. "

Dumbledore held the bottle of golden gravel in his hand, and his eyes were more serious than ever.

Jon also felt Dumbledore's attitude. Even when he was pretending to sneak into Hogwarts Castle, Dumbledore was not as solemn as today.

He did not refuse this task, and he would never refuse it. Jon just stared at Dumbledore's sapphire eyes.

"Professor, have you discovered anything?"

Dumbledore was silent for a moment, and he didn't seem to want to hide it from Jon.

"I have a guess, Jon, a guess that is not good for us, for everyone else, and for the world. And what I asked you to do now is to verify whether this guess is right."

"If it is wrong, then we will continue to win this war, which is no surprise. But if I guessed right..."

He paused and continued.

"Perhaps the prophecy of the savior that was once called a joke after Lily's child died has always been right."
