In the last few classes before Christmas, Lockhart casually taught some book knowledge to the students, and hurriedly ushered in the holiday. And the holiday, not enjoying a few days, ushered in a big event——

This is one of the largest combat operations in the history of wizards, and it is also the operation that has dispatched the most wizards by a single country. The entire wizarding world participated in the war to exterminate elves. Facing elves whose individual strength far surpassed wizards, as well as other intelligent creature allies of elves, human beings relied on the magic wand they just invented and their numerical superiority, and passed lightning-like sneak attacks. , won the war; and to suppress the goblin uprising, there are also wizards from several countries participating.

But this time, the UK is the last country in Europe to declare the dementors extinct, because the previous Minister of Magic accepted the surrender of the dementors and assigned them to guard Azkaban. Now, this group of hapless wizards is going to pay for that guy's mistakes.

However, the most interesting thing is that most of the wizards who participated in this operation still thought it was a drill before the battle began. Why is the exercise scheduled for the evening? This is where most of the people present are most dissatisfied. People gather to discuss and complain with each other.

Lockhart reluctantly mingled with a few members of the Order of the Phoenix among the Aurors. All the Aurors, Scrimgeour, the Director of Magic Enforcement, and Cornelius Fudge, the Minister of Magic, were few in the Ministry of Magic who knew the real situation of the event. people.

"Why do you want to encircle the dementors at night?" Lockhart said dissatisfiedly. Originally, Hogwarts had a holiday on this cold winter night, and he could hold a young and beautiful little witch in bed and have **** - love He, who was doing things, was notified to gather here. "Aren't dementors nocturnal creatures?"

"Be quiet!" Moody growled in a low voice. "It's just a common sense mistake that dementors are nocturnal creatures. In fact, day and night are the same for them. They don't rely entirely on vision to hunt."

"Then why do we have to act at night?" Tonks also interjected suspiciously, "Day and night are still a little different for us wizards, after all, except for the Aurors, no one in other departments receives night combat training, right? "

"Wizards can use the power of magic to turn night into day!" Moody glanced at Tonks contemptuously, "But there is no way to use magic power to make Death Eaters relax their vigilance or sleep during the day, understand?"

"Have you talked enough?" Louise Mountbatten interjected angrily, "Can you respect the Minister who is on the stage talking about precautions?"

"Okay, stop talking." Moody nodded.

"Are you nervous, Gilderoy, would you like something to eat?" Fat Joe kindly handed over something.

Lockhart waved his hand impatiently: "Be nervous, Dumbledore will be there too. Listen to the Minister's speech first."

"Presumably after many exercises, everyone has a clear understanding of how to deal with dementors, so now I won't talk nonsense." Cornelius Fudge, sweating profusely, used magic in front of hundreds of wizards to show a Zhang map, "Today's event location, in the valley marked on the map, everyone will Apparate into the field later, watch the signal and start action."

The wizards in the audience were still whispering, but the next sentence from the Minister of Magic immediately silenced the audience: "Now, the action begins, this is not a drill, repeat, this is not a drill!"

After a moment of silence, the wizards on the field started to riot as if they had exploded, but under the pressure of the heads of various departments, everyone was not allowed to talk nonsense. Dementors' gathering place.

The forest on a winter night was dead silent, with a thin layer of snow on the ground, the moon in the sky was blocked by overcast clouds, and all around were coniferous trees as thick as the pillars of the Parthenon. The unusual weather forced the animals to hibernate weeks early, and now, there is nothing but the sound of cold winds and snow breaking branches.

But this tranquility was broken in an instant. After a continuous crackling sound, dozens of wizards Apparated here. Some of them seldom Apparated. They stumbled and nearly bumped into others, and some held a tree to stand firm. Under the command of the superior, the wizards began to form teams, preparing to cast a super-large spell.

The same situation appeared in every corner of this forest, and a large number of wizards entered the forest through Apparition, surrounding an inaccessible valley.

In this operation, the Department of Magical Law Enforcement dispatched more than 100 strikers and more than 40 Aurors to deal with possible Death Eaters and mysterious people; the Department of Accidents and Disasters dispatched dozens of staff to clean the battlefield and clearing the memories of Muggles within a radius of dozens of miles; the Department of Magical Creatures Management and Control has the largest number of people dispatched, more than 200 wizards, all fully armed, trained to use the Patronus Charm, and know **** the most damage. Strange professionals; the Department of Transportation and some other departments also dispatched nearly a hundred wizards to be responsible for some large-scale spells to prevent the dementors from escaping.

Undoubtedly, the moment the Minister of Magic announced that the operation was not a drill, a traitor informed the Death Eaters, but to no avail: most of the Death Eaters were asleep by this time~www.mtlnovel. com~ After all the wizards of the Ministry of Magic Apparated into the field within a minute, the Ministry of Magic had cut off the Floo network in this large area, and the large space freezing and confusion spells that the Aurors had previously buried around them also is activated immediately.

In an instant, the entire valley was shrouded in a thin layer of magical enchantment; then, a large group of wizards joined forces to release super-large fluorescent spells and launched light **** over the valley. After several consecutive spells, the entire valley was covered with Several small suns in the sky lit up as bright as day; finally, a huge "M" symbol, the Ministry of Magic symbol, floated over the valley, cast by several wizards, larger than the black magic symbol that appeared in the World Cup, Occupies a small patch of sky - declares that this is a large-scale Ministry of Magic case, and requires unrelated wizards and intelligent creatures to stay away immediately.

A masked powerful wizard, suspended in mid-air, cast a huge ranged Patronus spell, covering the entire valley. Any Dementor who wants to fly away will be limited by the Space Solidification Charm, and then will be burned by a layer of Patronus Charm.

"Why is Dumbledore wearing a mask too?" Lockhart and a group of Aurors apparated into the forest. "A fool can guess it's him."

No one answered Lockhart's doubts. The current director of the Auror Department, Gadwin Robards, began to command the Aurors and assign tasks.

"One team is east, the second team is south, the third team is west, and the fourth team is north!" Gardwin Robards shouted loudly, "The main goal of everyone is to stop the Dementors who want to escape, even if they encounter Death Eaters. Kill it immediately, if the mysterious person appears, send a signal immediately!"

"Yes!"

PS: I’m really at a loss. I finally managed to get to the top with a fantastic click. Two books were dropped by the air. I can only ask for a recommendation ticket for comfort...
