The Mightiest Badger at Hogwarts

The report in the "International Wizarding Post" was actually very straightforward, just like their title, which directly told some of Beauxbatons' damage and some of the events that night.

It was also the first time that Link faced the tragedy of digitalized Beauxbatons.

Even he was a little moved when he saw the groups of numbers on the newspaper.

But if that's all it is, it doesn't really matter.

The most critical part of this entire report is that the writer has been constantly hinting that the terrorists who attacked Beauxbatons are likely to come from China.

However, since they had no evidence, all they could do was hint at it in the newspapers.

Even, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble.

Even their hints were very subtle.

If it wasn't related to this matter, Link wouldn't even be aware of the writer's hint.

However, this is because the "International Wizarding Post" family has a big business, so we can't talk nonsense.

The rest of the tabloids don't have that much concern.

The many international tabloids and local mails from the French Ministry of Magic that Cedric handed over clearly pointed the finger at the magic world of China.

Some of them were reckless for the sake of traffic, and even directly stated that this was a terrorist attack carried out by Hogwarts because they were worried about Beauxbatons's gradual rise.

Although Beauxbatons was indeed attacked by him and Dumbledore.

But they are not here to stop Beauxbatons from continuing to develop.

Moreover, most of the students who unfortunately died were killed by Li Luo himself.

It would be too much to throw all these things on their heads.

Sighing, Link threw all the newspapers in his hand on the table.

It was only then that he discovered that Old Batty and others were still standing.

Just by looking at the anxious expressions on their faces, Link already knew what they were thinking.

"Everyone, please sit down." Link said calmly, "Is the International Federation of Wizards putting pressure on you?"

Old Batty and the others just sat down with a sigh of relief.

Link's words almost made them jump up.

They looked at each other, and finally Old Batty stood up and said:

"Yes, they made things very scary. Especially the representative of the French Ministry of Magic. He was almost hysterical. Although they did not indicate any actual demands in their condemnation of us, it is foreseeable that they There's going to be retaliation. So I think we have to be prepared."

Link waved his hand and said:

"Let's talk about one thing at a time. The first thing is the Beauxbatons matter. As we can see, Beauxbatons is completely miserable now, and it is indeed Dumbledore and I who planned and launched the plan. Beauxbatons' attack. But you should note that Beauxbatons is only the location where our attack occurs, not the target of our attack. In fact, the target of our attack is only Voldemort's henchmen."

"Voldemort's henchmen are in France?"

Old Batty frowned and said solemnly.

"That's right, otherwise what do you think Dumbledore and I were going to France for? Are we really going on vacation?" Link said, spreading his hands, "In fact, most of the casualty data published in the newspapers were all It's what the shadow man named Li Luo said. His method..."

Link took a deep breath, "It's a little creepy."

After saying this, the entire conference room fell into silence.

Even Link felt creepy, what a terrifying and weird power it must be.

"So, where is the shadow man named Li Luo now?"

Percy asked somewhat subconsciously.

"Of course he's dead." Link glanced at him and said, "You don't think he can escape if Dumbledore and I join forces, right?"

When Percy heard this, he was relieved at first, but then his expression turned even worse.

Because he found that in this case, the form of things seemed to have not changed.

The International Federation of Wizards and the French Ministry of Magic will still take revenge on them.

No, it’s not just them, there will also be the group of shadow people hiding in the dark.

Among them, forget about the French Ministry of Magic and the Shadow Man.

The best they can carry out is a pure force strike.

In this regard, the Ministry of Magic of their country has been expanding its military for so long, so they must not be afraid.

The most important one is the International Federation of Wizards.

Although the International Federation of Wizards is similar in nature to the Federation of Muggle society, it is fundamentally different.

The biggest difference is that the International Federation of Wizards is an organization that truly overrides the ministries of magic of various countries. They have real power and actual military power.

This is actually a very easy thing to understand.

Just take the International Statute of Wizarding Secrecy.

Although this secrecy law is stated to protect wizards, it does protect a group of weak wizards.

But there are too many wizards to oppose it.

According to common sense, this kind of regulation is simply impossible to implement.

But in fact?

This code has been observed by various ministries of magic for hundreds of years.

At present, it has almost become an iron rule.

This is enough to illustrate the power of the International Federation of Wizards.

If it weren't for absolute power, how could the various ministries of magic be so obedient, and how could the Secrecy Act be implemented so smoothly?

So once the International Federation of Wizards also started targeting the Ministry of Magic of China.

Then there is no doubt that the Ministry of Magic of Japan will become the public enemy of the world!

When he thought of this, Percy felt extremely weak all over.

"There's no need to worry like this."

Link saw Percy's thoughts and said calmly, "Since the International Federation of Wizards and the French Ministry of Magic have issued condemnations, it is unlikely that they will retaliate against us on a large scale. In other words, you It can also be understood that they are the ones who are scared now. They issued the condemnation simply because they were too scared. This is called being fierce and lustful!"

Hearing this, Percy and the others' faces were full of doubts.

Only Old Batty showed a hint of understanding, but he had no intention of speaking out.

Seeing this, Link shook his head and continued:

"Seriously, you don't think we are weak, do you? Come on, we have been carrying out an army expansion plan for more than a year! The size of our Auror and Striker troops now is definitely the largest in Europe!

In addition, since Grindelwald was imprisoned, European countries have not had any wars for decades!

On the other hand, what about the magic world of our country?

The Second Wizarding War more than ten years ago, plus the current Third Wizarding War.

In less than 20 years, we have fought two very large wars in a row.

How effective do you think such an army will be? "

Link stood up slowly, pointed at himself and said:

"The most important thing is that the Ministry of Magic of the Republic of China also has Dumbledore and I, two senior wizards with legendary level of combat power! This is very rare in the world. So, they should be the ones to be afraid of. ! The French Ministry of Magic is afraid that we will launch further attacks, just like hundreds of years ago, so it impatiently launched a condemnation. The International Federation of Wizards is afraid that we will disrupt the security of the region and even replace their position, so They also immediately put pressure on us. But this is all false. You will see clearly if you wait and see. I think they will soon change the subject and start seeking reconciliation. Among them, the International Federation of Wizards will even take Give us something unimaginable to compensate.”

As Link spoke, the eyes of everyone in the conference room became brighter and brighter.

Especially old Batty.

As an old man who has experienced the era of Grindelwald and Voldemort, almost no one at the scene except Link knows better than him how terrifying the power of the legendary wizard is.

Think back then, how much terror just one Grindelwald brought to the entire Europe?

The same goes for Voldemort.

This is naturally because they are good at deceiving people.

But what really makes them big is their terrifying power.

By analogy, a legendary wizard in the magical world is almost equivalent to a nuclear weapon in Muggle society, and it is the most powerful Tsar Bomb level!

The most important thing is that compared to nuclear weapons, the legendary wizard is alive!

While they are powerful, they also retain pollution-free characteristics and ultra-high maneuverability.

This is simply the most perfect deterrent level of combat power!

And with such fighting power, their Ministry of Magic now has two in total!

With such fighting power, what do they have to fear?

It's already great if they don't invade other people!

After thinking about this, the anxiety on the faces of Old Batty and others was wiped away, and they relaxed instantly, and even their sitting postures changed.

Link looked at their appearance and instinctively wanted to shake his head.

At this moment, a ball of fire suddenly exploded from behind Link.

Newland and Si Gefen, who were still relaxed, reacted instantly and swung two disarming spells at the fire at a speed that was almost invisible to the naked eye.

Next came Cedric and Old Barty.

They pursued a completely opposite strategy to that of Newland and Skeffen.

The two of them pulled and pulled their wands to directly protect Link behind them.

This made Link, who was still a little dissatisfied at first, finally nod with satisfaction.

He had previously thought that Old Batty and others might have slacked off, but he did not expect that these people would now slap him in the face.

However, this is also a good thing.

At least it proves that they haven't been completely corrupted by the easy and comfortable life.

"Hey—"

While Link was thinking, a crisp phoenix sound sounded from the flames.

The phoenix Fox hovered in the air with flashing flames, completely ignoring the attacks of Newland and Skeffen, and landed lightly on Link's shoulder.

Seeing this, Old Batty and others breathed a sigh of relief, and then returned to their seats to sit down.

If it were Phoenix Fox, it wouldn't matter.

Everyone here recognized it.

And Phoenix Fox obviously didn't realize how big a disturbance he had caused previously.

It stood on Link's shoulder, tilted its head, and kept chirping at Link.

This appearance seemed to be conveying some message to Link.

What was strange was that Link seemed to understand Phoenix Fox's words and nodded slightly.

"Okay, Dumbledore has something urgent and wants to see me." Link stood up and said calmly, "I have to leave, but before I leave, I have to remind you. Although the French Ministry of Magic and The so-called condemnation and pressure from the International Federation of Wizards is most likely just a superficial bluff. But you still need to take precautions. After all, small-scale acts of revenge are not uncommon, so let’s break up the meeting.”

After Link finished speaking, he gently touched Phoenix Fox's head.

The latter immediately recalled, spread his wings, and surrounded Link with the phoenix fire.

boom--

The flames dissipated, and Link also disappeared, leaving only everyone in the conference room looking at each other.

The weird silence lasted for a while, and finally Old Batty stood up and said:

"Okay, according to Mr. Foley, Percy, let's discuss how to defend ourselves. As for the others, they can move freely."

Percy nodded with an ugly look on his face.

Faced with the sudden arrival of Phoenix Fox, he was the only one in the entire conference room who failed to react.

You can't really blame him.

After all, he is not known for his strength.

But it still made him feel a little embarrassed.

Newland and others left the conference room without hesitation.

"Hey, Si Gefen, I'm going home, what are you going to do next?"

In the corridor, Newland said lightly.

Hearing this, Si Gefen glanced at him and said:

"I still have to train."

"Idiot, the training time of the Auror force is fixed every day. Do you think I don't know that except for those fixed times, you just spend the rest of the time in the training ground in a daze?" Newland frowned and said, "If you really have no home, But go back, then go to my house, my house is quite big."

As he spoke later, Newland's voice softened.

The kindness here is barely concealed.

Si Gefen obviously noticed it too.

He looked hesitant.

But in the end he shook his head and walked straight away.

This made Newland's face turn red.

He shook his fist at Si Gefen's back and cursed:

"Think of good intentions as a donkey's liver and lungs! People like you will never make friends in this life!"

After saying that, Si Gefen, who had not walked far ahead, suddenly stopped. As he turned around, the wand in his hand began to transform into a long stick, and he slashed hard!

This set of movements can be said to be smooth and flowing.

It's a pity that Newland seemed to have expected it, and he dodged and rushed into the fireplace next to him.

As the flames rose, Newland disappeared instantly, and Si Gefen's long stick also struck the empty space.

"Newland, don't let me see you next time!"

Si Gefen cursed angrily.

But as soon as he finished cursing, he couldn't help laughing.

This smile is a bit bitter and a bit envious.

To be honest, he also wanted to go home with Newland and meet Newland's mother whom he talked about every day.

That should be a very good mother.

Kind, beautiful, and gentle.

Unfortunately……

Words like family and warmth are too luxurious for him.

Sighing, Newland took back his wand and walked silently to the Auror's office alone.
