Hogwarts in a parallel world

Chapter 87 Christmas Dance ([-])

Two days later, in the library.Elena gave the translated book to Winters.But she also has big concerns:

Why can't you ask Professor Dumbledore? He can solve it.

"But I haven't seen him since the first project," Winters recalled, and Professor Dumbledore had indeed been rarely seen in recent weeks.

"Do you think it's feasible?" Elena asked uneasily.

"To be honest, I don't know. I can only try. I used a method similar to the one in the book to find Aurora, Harry, Slyer and Hermione on the Shadow Island." Winters admitted that he Not sure at all.

Winters looked carefully at the note Elena wrote to him, which was very detailed:

"I remember you said that even if death puts a sickle on your neck, you are not lagging behind others."

"Yes, I said that" Elena was a little embarrassed.

"You are really... powerful... powerful in every sense." Winters didn't know how to describe Elena.

"Powerful? This is not a word that makes me happy," Elena said with a smile.

"Then what should I say...do you have a good memory? Or you are indeed very talented, because your translation is indeed very good." Winters looked at Elena.

"Forget it, you think about it yourself," Elena said angrily.

"I will definitely figure it out when I have time," Winters said with a slight yawn.

After confirming the meaning of several vague places, Winters was ready to go to the training room to try. Everything went smoothly at first, but when Winters faced this strange-looking patron saint (looking like an eagle, But it had three pairs of wings and three pairs of talons) when he went to look for his friends, he just stood there and tilted his head and looked at Winters.

"Go find my sister," Winters ordered in a firmer tone.

Then still no response.

"Go find Aurora Eisen, this is my order for you."

Still no response, Winters opened the book and read and read again and again. He watched Elena write a few words on page 113:

"memory?"

Winters looked carefully at the marked words: The fusion of the patron saint summoned by the summoning guardian and the memory of the caster creates a spiritual guardian that can not only drive away dementors, but also help wizards find lost relatives.

"It seems that it is not only good memories, but also bad memories... But this is contradictory to the description of the spell of calling for divine protection." Winters frowned as he looked at it.

If the description in the book is correct, it is equivalent to the fusion of two elements with completely opposite properties into one spell, which will cause the spell to become extremely unstable.

Winters decided to use the old method: summon a magic aggregation, and then try to add all the good memories and bad memories into it, and then-

There was a loud bang and a gust of wind blew Winters away.

Winters stood up from the ground staggeringly, eyes flashing with stars.He looked at the place where the magic aggregate disappeared and still didn't give up.He tried again, first integrating the symbols representing the four basic elements of fire, water, wind, and earth into the magic aggregate, and then adding all the memories, good and bad, into it. This time, there were no The explosion just now occurred.

"Find Aurora Eisen" Winters ordered hopefully but uneasily.

The strange-looking patron saint in front of him let out a short chirp and disappeared in a flash of lightning. Winters could only wait in peace.

More than ten minutes later, Winters heard familiar footsteps.

"You succeeded?" Aurora said in surprise.Immediately afterwards, after a blue flash, the mind guard appeared next to Winters again.

"Yes, did the author of this book forget something? It is obvious that the spells of the four basic elements are needed to improve compatibility, but they were not written at all, which made me have a bulge in my head." Winters touched his own The back of his head said angrily.

"I guess this is good news, now it's not just Irina's father. The only person in the family that Karai can contact now is his house elf. Slyer said that he is ready to accept the most terrible thing." It’s a terrible fact.” Aurora’s expression was rare and stern.

"I think... I can't do it, I don't have that ability." Winters panicked.

"But no matter what, it is indeed good news... and Professor McGonagall already knows what you are doing," Aurora said seriously.

"What did she say?" Winters asked nervously.

"Professor McGonagall just said that she believes you can distinguish what is most important. Moreover, she has already written to Professor Dumbledore," Aurora said with some pride.

"I understand... I can't control that much now. Let the judges deduct as much as they want. Let's go. The news I brought to them can at least make the haze less hazy," Winters said simply.

"Find Elena and her brothers in Hogwarts, as well as Karai, Slyer, and Elsa, and ask them to wait for me in the library." Winters used his wand to inject some memories into his words as he spoke. To the spiritual guard.

Then the soul guard turned into a bolt of lightning and disappeared.

"Let's go... I always have a feeling... Even if things are not that bad, they won't be too good," Aurora said dullly.

"But we can't just wait. Professor Dumbledore has always expected the return of the mysterious man." Winters sighed.

More than 20 minutes later, as soon as Winters arrived at the library, he saw Les, Link, Matt, Elena, Karai, Slyer, and Elsa all sitting silently and with serious expressions. on a table.

Harry, Hermione, Ron, Lavender, Marissa, and Ginny were sitting at another table. They obviously knew something was not normal.

"Okay...there's no need to be so serious." Winters was a little frightened.

"Did you successfully summon other than the spiritual guardian?" Elena asked.

"Yes, but that doesn't mean everything is fine. Because the people we are looking for are your parents, brothers, and relatives." Winters looked at the table where Elena and the others were sitting.Then he waved his wand, and after a flash of light, the strange-looking mind guard appeared next to Winters.

There was an exclamation of exclamation from those present many days.

"If I heard correctly, Elena's father, Karai's family, and Slyer's father have not had any contact with the family since at least Halloween, but we don't know what their mission is. If we rashly Using Mind Guard may...have bad consequences." Harry was very cautious.

"Yes, that's why I asked you to come here. I want to know under what circumstances the Auror Command will send reinforcements. I have no idea about these rules." Winters nodded to Harry.

"I don't know much. I know that if it is judged that the mission is about to fail, then an order to retreat will be issued. If the retreat does not go smoothly, we will consider whether to send support forces." Slaer's voice was very dull.

"The standard of failure is based on the degree of danger. For highly dangerous missions, if the timeout reaches 30%, it will be deemed a failure - at least that's what I remember." Elsa was comforting Slyer. .

"Yes. But I don't know how dangerous the mission my father performed is, how much time it requires... and..." Slaer didn't dare to say anything.

"Moreover, whether to send a rescue force must also be evaluated. If you think that sending a rescue force will cause losses... then... you may let the Aurors find the nearest garrison company." Hermione's voice was very loud. Low.

Winters knew exactly what Hermione meant by what she just said.If it is believed that sending rescue forces will cause more serious losses, then abandoning those Aurors who are in deep danger is a very possible option, and in extreme cases it may be the only option.Such examples are not uncommon in history.

"Well... I think the situation may not be that bad - what I am here to say is that if you are going to use the soul guard to find your relatives, then you can only rely on yourself. All I can do is use magic The aggregate enhances the spiritual guards you summoned." As soon as Winters finished speaking, Slaer's face instantly showed a look of horror.

Winters immediately added: "Professor Dumbledore already knows about your situation and he must be thinking of a solution."

Marissa smiled bitterly and said: "Winters, if you had been staying at Hogwarts during this time, you wouldn't have said that. Professor Dumbledore has only been seen three times in the past few months. Of course. Maybe not that few, but hardly more than 3 times.”

Harry and the others all agreed with Marissa's words, and then Ron added:

"I think Professor Dumbledore might be up to the same thing. If that's the case, it might not be that bad." But Lavender disagreed with Ron:

"It might not be that bad, but it could be worse. Dumbledore and the Aurors and even the Muggle military were involved.

They are fighting for the same goal in different places, but it is strange that such a large-scale operation is so quiet.Either the mission has been accomplished, or there has been a very serious setback.”

No one can refute Lavender's words. The most important point is that if the mission has been completed, then Elena, Slyer, and Karai's family should have returned long ago. That can only be the second scenario.

"I think the possibility of Muggle military involvement is not low... My parents and my two brothers are both pharmacists. They were suddenly required to work overtime. They only had 3 days off for several months and worked 12 hours a day at other times. , I don’t dare to ask any more questions.” Elsa patted Slaier’s back gently, Slaer’s face was filled with sorrow.

"My father is a herbal medicine blender. He was also asked to work overtime. The machinery manufacturing manager where my mother worked suddenly started accepting orders endlessly." Lavender did not look at Elena and the others when he spoke.

"Thank you for telling me this... But I think the most important thing now is to take action. Professor Dumbledore is known as the only person who is afraid of the mysterious man, so he may suffer the greatest pressure. If-" Wen Tes forced himself to suppress what seemed to him to be a completely unreasonable situation:

"——If he really can't get away, the psychic guard can at least make the rescue more efficient," Winters said.

"Can you tell me the reason why you can only use magic aggregate to strengthen the spiritual guard we summoned?" Slaer asked with difficulty.

"Winters is not familiar with your father, nor is he familiar with my father. Of course, he is even more unfamiliar with Karai's family. A patron saint requires a lot of memory to become a spiritual guardian." Elena's nasal voice was very heavy.

"Then how should we practice? I don't want to wait any longer." Slaer stood up and asked Winters for the first time when he noticed that Slaer was a little bent over.

"Summon the magic power aggregate, and then integrate the spells representing the four basic elements of fire, wind, water, and earth into the magic power polymer. Finally, inject the memories of you and your relatives into the changed magic power polymer.

And don’t just inject good memories, that will result in the product of the Invoking Guardian spell instead of the spiritual guard - at least that’s what I did, I did what the book said - and then I got blown away.” While Winters was speaking, he subconsciously touched the cells on the back of his head, which felt as if they were a little lower than before.

"Magic aggregate?" Irina's brother, Les, looked at Winters in shock.

"I doubt there are more than two people in the entire library who have the ability to summon magic aggregates. And why can't you use your magic aggregates?" Harry said immediately.

"Similar to what happened to me before, my parents' magic aggregate cannot carry the spells conjured by Professor Dumbledore. And the spells conjured by my parents will be covered and assisted by Dumbledore's magic power," Elena sighed.

"I think we can also create a mind guardian without summoning magic aggregates," Hermione said thoughtfully.

"Hermione, please tell me, don't take it for granted." Slyer was already panicking.

"For all of you, being able to reunite with your loved ones is the best thing. Therefore, those conflicts that have occurred are also beautiful memories. I think what is needed to summon a spiritual guardian is a firm will and a strong will." Hermione There is no immediate conclusion.

"I think you'd better prepare quickly... Of course, you may be able to see your relatives coming to Hogwarts with gifts tomorrow," Aurora comforted Elena and the others.

Elena didn't move. She told her brothers that she still had some things to finish in the library.Aurora was stunned for a moment, then didn't stop any longer.

"Do you have a dance partner?" Elena asked with red eyes.

"No...I'm going to find a dance partner in a few days." Winters felt very embarrassed, and his face became hot in an instant.

"Do you have a definite plan?" Elena asked calmly.

"Professor McGonagall already knows what I am doing. She said that she believes that I can distinguish priorities - I think reducing some tragedies is far more important than the name of the Triwizard Tournament." Winters dodged Elena's words. Bright purple eyes.

"I don't have a dance partner either, why didn't you invite me just because of the so-called 'man of the moment'?" Elena said with a smile, rubbing her eyes as she spoke.

"I thought you had promised someone else... You are so... excellent." Winters found himself completely speechless.

"Since you think I am excellent, why don't you invite me?" Elena asked immediately.

"Well... I'm just a little... busy." Winters thought Elena had guessed all his thoughts.

"I understand that you are unwilling to get such a low score. But why can't you understand that I hope that someone who is evenly matched with me in the duel or even has a slight advantage can invite me to the dance?" Elena said He kept looking at Winters.

"Of course I understand, I just--well, you're right." Winters gave up the resistance and looked into Elena's eyes.

Elena said with some excitement: "I will definitely take time to practice dance steps. I hope you won't make excuses for your absence. I also don't want you to appear in the "History of Wizarding Competitions" with negative points because of me. Book"

Then, Elena suddenly hugged Winters, and she stared at Winters for a few seconds before leaving.

Winters' head was pounding as he left the library.
