"Oh my God, it's getting more and more chaotic outside now!"
In a corner of the noisy Gryffindor common room, Hermione was sitting in an armchair reading the latest newspaper, while Harry and Ron returned to the dormitory by the way.
The news in the newspapers all said one thing. The mysterious man was slaughtering Muggles unscrupulously. Even if the Ministry of Magic wanted to stop it, he was still stumped by the ss made by the dark wizard.
For the entire Ministry of Magic, hiding the existence of the magical world is the first priority. As for organizing the Death Eaters to slaughter Muggles, it can only see if they can divide their excess energy.
To make matters worse, the last wizard war lasted eleven years before it ended, so how long will this wizard war last?
How many innocent people will die in this war?
"Hermione, we should go," Harry reminded.
"Oh, I'll co."
Hermione closed the newspaper and stood up, walking towards Harry and Ron.
"What are you looking at?" Ron asked suspiciously.
"The latest issue of the newspaper."
"I haven't watched it yet, is there any news?" Ron asked again.
"You-Know-Who has involved a lot of Muggles in this war, they are being slaughtered by Death Eaters, and things are getting worse in the wizarding world." Hermione said in a low voice, "It is said that there are wizards who don't want to be involved. into this wizarding war and fled overseas and emigrated to other English-speaking countries.”
"I'm now considering whether to send my family away. After all, if they are targeted by the Death Eaters because of , I an they are just ordinary people and shouldn't be involved in this wizarding war." Hermione stopped and looked at Harry standing there puzzled, "What's wrong, Harry?"
"Sorry, I'm the one who got you down," Harry said bitterly, knowing that Hermione's situation was his own, but he also knew that he needed Ron and Hermione's support.
"Don't say such things, you should still rember Albert's prophecy, Muggle wizards will be in big trouble, I shouldn't implicate them." Hermione looked around and made sure that no one was around before whispering. Said: "They have always wanted to go to Australia to see, I think immigrating to the Far East is a good choice, I believe that the mysterious man and the Death Eaters will not bother to search for their whereabouts."
Hermione had already planned to find a chance to make her family forget herself and change her na to immigrate to Australia, and this had to happen as soon as possible, preferably before the Death Eaters set their sights on her, right from their eyelids. disappear below.
If possible, Hermione actually wanted to send her family away during the Christmas holiday this year.
Just after September 19th this year, she was considered an adult, and even if she used magic outside, she would not be detected by Trace Wire.
However, this matter was undoubtedly a very heavy topic for Hermione.
When the three ca to the vicinity of the Room of Requirent, they found that many students were gathering here, and they greeted Harry and the three warmly.
After everyone entered the room of responsiveness, they found that there were already other people inside. Everyone was surrounded by a very handso man, and seed to be talking about so interesting topic.
"Thank you for coming to help, Cedric." Harry stepped forward to shake hands with the handso man. "I thought Fred and George would co too."
"They are busy making things to make money. I heard that the Ministry of Magic ordered a batch of Defense Against the Dark Arts items from them." Cedric greeted a few acquaintances with a smile, and did not forget to tell Harry. This matter, "It seems to be prepared for the Aurors of the International Wizarding Federation. I heard that assistance from other countries is finally coming, and they will help stop the dark wizards from provoking disputes and avoid attracting the attention of Muggles."
This is actually a statent of the International Federation of Wizards and Wizards, that this war should not attract the attention of Muggles, at least not expose the existence of wizards to Muggles.
"Perhaps, the Second Wizarding War will be over soon," soone muttered.
"Maybe, who knows?"
"The last wizard war lasted eleven years, and many wizards were brutally killed. The situation is worse now than the last ti." Susan Burns noticed other people's eyes, and sneered, " The Burns family was the victim last ti, and my uncle, aunt and cousin were all killed by the Death Eaters, so don't take chances and be careful this ti."
"Ahem, there's no harm in learning more Defense Against the Dark Arts now!"
Cedric coughed lightly and briefly exchanged with Harry about today's class.
The popular Harry and the handso Cedric always attract the attention of the girls, and more importantly, everyone knows that it is obviously very difficult for Harry to teach everyone here Defence Against the Dark Arts. .
"Cedric, I heard from the professor that Dumbledore strengthened the school's defenses, how did you sneak into Hogwarts?" Ernie McMillan asked curiously.
"Quietly? No, I actually ca in from the main entrance of the school." Cedric said sothing indistinguishable from the truth. "That ans I'm standing here with the principal's permission."
"Oh, the principal actually allowed it."
Everyone was surprised that Dumbledore would acquiesce to soone teaching them Defence Against the Dark Arts skills instead of having them take a Defence Against the Dark Arts class.
"Is it really that bad outside?" soone else asked.
"It's very bad, after all, it's the second wizarding war. Now the minions of the Death Eaters are running rampant, making trouble in the Muggle world." Cedric clapped his hands and said to the crowd, "I'll just say sothing straight."
The noise in the Room of Requirent gradually quieted down, until there was a dead silence around him, Cedric said, "Albert thinks we need to prepare for the future, and he persuaded Dumbledore to let co and help Harry teach you. Defense Against the Dark Arts, when you graduate from school, you may consider joining the Defense Association."
His tone stopped, and he continued, "Of course, whether to join or not is your freedom, and no one will force you."
"Defense Association?" Susan asked, raising her hand. "Are you referring to the DA party?"
"Yes, our Defense Association is actually similar to now, that is, it is no longer a school-type group." Cedric introduced the Defense Association to the crowd with a smile, "We are a mutual aid organization that supports Harry and opposes the mysterious man, which is similar to the current DA. The [Defence Association] party, or you can think of it as an extension of the DA party.”
"Albert will teach everyone more advanced Defense Against the Dark Arts, and you can think that now is laying the foundation for you."
"The mbers of the Defense Association will keep in touch with each other and help each other. When in trouble, at least they will not be helpless. If they are targeted by Death Eaters, we will also help to hide people." Cedric made a statent. The quiet gesture continued, "Albert thinks that in the not too distant future there will be a war between Harry and You-Know-Who, and that war will end forever, and we will stand behind Harry and support him at that ti. , instead of leaving Harry alone with You-Know-Who and his minions."
Everyone turned to look at Harry, making Harry very embarrassed.
"Okay, our ti is limited. It's better to start now. As for whether to join the Defense Association, you can make a decision after completing the ultimate wizard rank exam." Cedric smiled kindly at Harry, and by the way Help him out.
After Cedric finished speaking, he handed over the hosting of the party to Harry, and then began to cooperate with Harry to explain how to set up a safe temporary camp in the wild.
"If you want to avoid the pursuit of the enemy, you must be remote enough when choosing a camp location. As long as the other party doesn't know where you are hiding, it will be difficult for them to find you in a short ti."
Harry began to follow the original plan, talking about his understanding of the establishnt of temporary camps, "Of course, wizards can use spells to track other people's whereabouts, but as long as you master the ans of anti-tracking, you generally don't have to worry about being easily found."
"There is one thing that underage wizards must pay attention to, because you are still underage and carry traces on your body. Once you use magic outside the school, you will be imdiately known by the Ministry of Magic. If one day the Death Eaters control the Ministry of Magic..."
"Do you think the Death Eaters will control the Ministry of Magic?" Colin Creevey asked, raising his hand.
"I don't know, but I want to fu..."
"I think You-Know-Who should try to do that," Cedric interrupted imdiately. "Also, don't call the You-Know-Who's na outside, it's easy to be targeted because that na is enchanted, Once you use it, even if you say his na in your safe house, the Death Eaters will break through all your defensive magic and appear in front of you at the first ti."
"Of course, they still don't dare, but once the Ministry of Magic really falls, they will do that, so don't call that na even if you're not afraid of the mysterious man, because it's a bait in itself, the bait for the fish to be hooked, Ai Burt told it was for mbers of the Order of the Phoenix."
The surroundings suddenly fell into a dead silence, Ron and Hermione both looked at Harry, and they all knew that Cedric's words were for Harry.
"Why don't they dare now?" Susan Burns asked, raising her hand.
"Because the Ministry of Magic has tried fishing and law enforcent." Cedric explained with a smile, "Of course, if this happens, I believe Albert must have a solution, so you don't need to worry, the Ministry of Magic will not collapse easily. ."
"That's about it." Harry was a little depressed, but he continued to advance today's lesson step by step, teaching everyone how to set up a temporary camp.
"Invasion spell, shielding spell, earplug listening spell, phantom body spell..."
"Although these kinds of spells are not very strong defensive spells, they are relatively simple to learn. Their anings are actually difficult for people to find you easily. When the enemy appears near you, they can also fight for you more. Ti, running away imdiately is the best choice, of course, you can find this part of the knowledge in the "Guide to Self-Defense"." Harry looked at the people in front of him and solemnly reminded, "It's best not to take chances, unless you have Ai The level of Burt who can bring down fifty Aurors alone, and you have an absolute advantage."
"I thought I had a good level of defense against the dark magic at the beginning, and I was caught by a group of dark wizards before escaping the first ti. I enjoyed a Cruciatus package, and finally Albert took from the dark wizards. Co out, so you'd better take precautions." Cedric reminded, "Not everyone is as lucky as I am, and successfully escaped within an hour of being caught."
"Perhaps, the Sorting Hat put you in the wrong house," Harry joked. "The Invasion Charm could be replaced by those looking glasses or detection pocket watches, but it's still a useful spell that can detect intrusions. Enter the nearby intruders and trigger the alarm at the first ti, especially when you build a camp, you can't always pay attention to whether soone appears, and the sight glass is easy to attract the enemy, and it is not in the aspect of concealnt. Reliable."
Harry's job was a lot easier with Cedric's help after Harry started explaining to them one by one what the spells were for, and teaching them how to use them.
Before the eting ended, Cedric gathered everyone again and reminded kindly: "I have one more thing to tell everyone, you'd better keep it a secret, don't talk about it, think about what if you joined the Defense Association, the result So people connect to let the Death Eaters know that you have joined the Defense Association, and you may be approached by the Death Eaters soon, so confidentiality is very important, and this is related to everyone's safety."
"How much do you think they'll listen to?"
After the eting, Harry looked at the whispering crowd and asked Cedric sideways, he hadn't forgotten that Hogwarts had few secrets.
"I don't know, if they talk about it with their big mouths, then if they are unlucky, they will deserve it." Cedric shook his head and said, "By the way, Harry, let's continue to talk about what we haven't finished talking about last ti. talk about it!"
"Did he say whether Malfoy made the opal necklace?" Harry asked suddenly. He still cares about it.
"Harry, I think you should ask sothing important." Hermione interrupted with a frown. She couldn't understand why Harry always thought Malfoy was a Death Eater. To slander a person like that.
"No, we haven't got in touch with him for a few days, maybe we'll have to wait for a while!" Cedric reached out and patted Harry on the shoulder, "If you have any questions, just ask, I know. will tell you."
"Is the Ministry of Magic really going to collapse?" Harry asked after a mont of hesitation. UU Reading uukanshu
"Yes, at least Albert thinks so." Cedric affird.
"But... how could it be." Ron's eyes widened, unable to comprehend that the Ministry of Magic would collapse
"Albert thinks that You-Know-Who will kill Scrimgeour," Cedric said. "If he wants to, he will definitely find an opportunity. After all, the power gap between the two sides is there, and Scrimgeour is not hiding. It's almost inevitable."
"Then will Dumbledore..." Harry didn't say everything, but the aning was already obvious, and the atmosphere at the scene was even more deadly.
"Albert didn't say it directly, but he seems to think that Dumbledore will lose his deterrent power to You-Know-Who in the near future." Cedric considered his words and said, "You don't have to ask Albert, he I won't tell you."
"Is that injury really not cured?" Harry murmured softly, "No wonder he started teaching this year."
