Hogwarts pet owl

Arthur left.

Arthur's hand on the clock pointed to "mortal danger." [Note: In the original work, after Voldemort’s public activities, all nine pointers pointed to fatal danger, so this does not explain anything]

Molly buried herself in the sofa, covered her face and cried bitterly.

At this time, even the most out-of-the-box Gemini was no longer in the mood to joke, and several children surrounded their mother to comfort her.

Errol didn't promise Molly anything like "nothing will ever happen to dad", because if she did, it would only be regarded as an ordinary comfort, and others wouldn't believe it.

Errol gently pulled Ginny's sleeve and led her into the kitchen.

Instead of saying useless words of comfort, it would be more practical to help the old mother with some housework.

In fact, Errol's actions had an effect.

"I need to be stronger,"

Molly wiped her tears and said to herself,

"Ginny and Errol are still children, and because of my incompetent mother, they are ready to run the house!"

Molly stood up,

"Kids, I'm okay,"

She said, wiping away her tears again and sniffing.

"You are right, your father will be fine, we should wait for him to come home."

Molly forced a smile, patted Bill on the shoulder, and walked into the kitchen.

"Ginny, Elol, please go out, the kitchen is mother's battlefield!"

Errol and Ginny were kicked out of the kitchen. Ginny wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Errol.

"It's good to leave mom alone for a while and let her get busy. At least she won't think too much,"

Errol hugged Ginny, who was also distracted,

"Don't worry, it will be fine. Trust me, Ginny, dad will be fine."

……

"The comet is going to set in an hour?"

Fred's clever mind was a little hard to turn around.

George is in the same situation,

"Why is it so sudden?"

Fred suddenly slapped himself on the head,

"Oops, we forgot about Lin Lan!"

George was also shocked. Lin Lan was their good friend. She lived alone in a cold house. If the comet fell, would she be in danger?

There probably would be. They were familiar with that ice palace. There was no basement at all. Lin Lan had no place to hide!

Although the Geminis didn't know how powerful the comet would be, it must be quite powerful for Dumbledore and the Ministry of Magic to take it so seriously.

The two looked at each other, and then said in unison:

"We have to go inform her!"

……

……

A rocket lifts off over the wasteland of central America.

On the other side of the earth, a rocket was also launched from a rocket base in the Siberian ice sheet.

Two rockets carrying human hope flew in the direction of the comet.

In the British Ministry of Magic, members of the Wizengamot Council led by Dumbledore, as well as all officials and employees of the Ministry of Magic, gathered in front of the Magic Brothers Fountain in the hall, quietly waiting for the news.

A radio is placed under the statue.

Xiang Xin Li and Sirius Black were also here - although Sirius was very unhappy about handing Harry over to Snape for protection, he had no other choice. After all, Lily couldn't stay too far away from Snape.

The magical radio station was currently broadcasting real-time Muggle reports, interrupting Sirius's thoughts.

"The Atlantis rocket that the United States was planning to launch next year has already taken off. The rocket is equipped with a B83 nuclear bomb with an explosion yield of 120 million tons, which is times more powerful than the Little Boy nuclear bomb originally dropped on Hiroshima!"

"If Atlantis can successfully hit Comet Rocky, it will definitely be destroyed outside the atmosphere!"

"According to the latest news, Russia has also launched a rocket. However, Russia is currently suffering from internal and external troubles. Their rocket lacks maintenance, and whether it can complete the mission is still open to question. However, they can be regarded as a layer of insurance for the 'Star Destruction' operation."

"According to NASA's real-time information, Atlantis will disarm Rocky's Comet in twenty seconds!"

"twenty!"

"nineteen!"

"..."

"three!"

"two!"

"one!"

"Missed! Atlantis and Rocky's comet were missed! In fact, when the two passed by each other, they were at least 500 meters apart from each other! American scientists made a miscalculation!"

"The comet will reach the atmosphere in 120 seconds!"

"Wait a minute! There's a nuclear explosion in space!"

"It's a Russian rocket! A Russian rocket hit Rocky's Comet!!"

……

……

"Wow!"

In the underground space of Weasley's house.

The children jumped up, and smiles appeared on the faces of Molly, the Grangers, and the Muggle parents.

"Long live!"

"Hit!"

After warning Lin Lan and rushing home again, the twins also high-fived each other.

"Ula!"

"Is that how it's pronounced?"

"I don't care if that's how he pronounces it, Ulla!!"

——They didn’t bring Lin Lan back,

Because Lin Lan said she had something to do.

But the next moment, the entire underground space was silent again.

"There is still a celestial body hitting us! Confirmed! It's Comet Rocky! It has not been destroyed!"

……

The old god Herbo was lying on the grass in the Scottish Highlands. Although it was daytime, the faint white light in the sky was like a bright star.

"The Muggles have such powerful weapons now, and they were almost blown up by them! Unfortunately, the stars summoned by the meteorite summoning array can avoid them on their own."

He said to himself,

"Well, by the way, if Muggles are allowed to attack each other with this weapon, wouldn't I be able to gain a lot of souls easily?"

"Hey hey hey hey, that's a really good idea!"

……

Neither rocket destroyed the comet.

There was dead silence in the hall of the Ministry of Magic. Only the radio was still giving live broadcasts.

"Comet Rocky is about to enter the atmosphere. According to calculations, the comet will land in the Scottish Highlands near Oxford, England."

Dumbledore's eyes widened.

Hogwarts? ?

Yes, the magic power of the first magic circle was supplied by Stonehenge, and the magic power reserve of Hogwarts is hundreds of times that of Stonehenge!

So it makes sense that the culprit would set up the magic circle in Hogwarts!

Damn it, why hadn't he thought of that?

He really wanted to go find Errol again, but gave up after thinking about it for a moment——

The comet is about to enter the atmosphere, and everything is done. Even erasing the magic circle is useless at this time.

There was only one thing he could do now, which was to gather enough wizards to go to Hogwarts to see if they could make a final stand after the Muggles failed to intercept for the second time.

It's just that Trelawny's prophecy has been swirling in his mind. If the prophecy is true, their resistance will probably be ineffective.

"Connelly, fellow citizens,"

Dumbledore said,

"Everyone, please follow me to Hogwarts. The comet's landing point is right there. Let's give it a last try!"

Fudge is unusually reliable, at least it seems so:

"Director Crouch, ask your members of the International Exchange and Cooperation Department to contact wizards from other countries as much as possible. With each additional person, we will be more confident!"

Amelia Bones, Director of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement, waved her wand and shouted:

"I have deactivated the Ministry of Magic's anti-Apparition devices,"

Although she is a woman, she looks full of indomitable momentum.

"Come on! My compatriots, if the Muggles fail, we will be the last barrier in this world!"

"Hey!"

Sirius was the first to Apparate, because Harry Potter was at Hogwarts right now!

"Hey!"

"Hey!"

After someone took the lead, the wizards began to apparate one after another.

Wizards with low magic skills also rushed to the fireplace. They wanted to use the floo network to rush to Hogwarts. Maybe even if they arrived at the scene, they wouldn't have much effect, but their courage was worth it. admiration.

Soon, the halls of the Ministry of Magic were empty.

No, there is another person,

Cornelius Fudge.

He picked up the radio but didn't disapparate.

He hurriedly rushed into the elevator. He was going to the ninth floor underground where the Department of Mysteries was located, and then took the stairs to the tenth floor.

There is the Judgment Chamber, the deepest and most secure place in the Ministry of Magic.

Perhaps only there could he feel a sense of security.

It's just that when he took the elevator to the Department of Mysteries on the ninth floor, he didn't notice a mouse climbing up the stairs on the tenth floor...
