Mastering Lightning from Hogwarts

After Anduin sent Aselia back to her residence, he once again instructed her on some details. After all, this woman was simply too amateurish when it came to acting.

So, to be honest, Anduin didn't have much expectation for how much Aselia could help. He just hoped to rely on her to find the Thunderbirds.

The next day, a group of high-level officials from the Ministry of Magic invited Anduin to the Ministry. On the one hand, they wanted to know the specific situation that happened on the scene that day from Anduin, in other words, to make a report.

On the other hand, they wanted to discuss the purchase of alchemical items. After all, Minister Bardoe had promised him that if he assisted the Ministry of Magic in finding the whereabouts of the Silver Spears, they would increase the share of equipment purchases. Of course, the result afterward was better than expected. Anduin not only led the Ministry of Magic to find the other party, but also led the team to complete the siege almost perfectly.

"Anduin, I heard about your decision from Mr. Scamander. On behalf of the Order of Merlin, I thank you for your great help." In his office, Minister Bardoe looked at Anduin in front of him with satisfaction.

This meeting was not as grand as usual. In addition to Minister Bardoe and Anduin, only Amelia was present, and even Moody was not there.

"You're too polite, Minister. It is my duty to fight against evil, and their existence is also threatening my safety." Anduin shook his head politely, and added, "By the way, I have made a monitor overnight. As long as I detect the 'Thunderbird' appearing again, I will send an alert to the Ministry of Magic."

"And they are likely to have 'Mentos' technology in their hands, so you still have to be careful. You have also seen the damage that 'Thunderbird' can cause."

Bardoe nodded upon hearing this, and then smiled wryly at Amelia next to him.

"Speaking of this, we may have to ask for your help again." Amelia opened her mouth and said, "The Ministry of Magic's monitoring array could originally detect Portkeys, but we closed it after the situation stabilized.

Now, because it has been in disrepair for a long time, it cannot be turned on and operated normally. Dumbledore helped set up that array before, and now I want to ask you to see if there is any way to repair it."

"This is also something that can't be helped." Minister Bardoe shook his head helplessly. "There are very few alchemists in the UK who can maintain this kind of large-scale alchemy array. It would be too expensive to hire someone from Egypt, and Dumbledore is relatively busy, so…"

So you want me to work for you for free? What do you mean by not wanting to bother Dumbledore? To put it bluntly, your Ministry of Magic wants to save money and save face, and doesn't want to show weakness. Anduin complained silently in his heart.

But on the surface, he still put on an agreeing expression, "No problem, to be honest, I haven't seen this kind of national-level alchemy array in the Ministry of Magic before. It's a good opportunity for me to broaden my horizons, but since I have never been exposed to it before, I can't directly guarantee you."

"That's natural. Try it first. If it doesn't work, we'll think of another way. How about this, let's go now." Minister Bardoe stood up after saying that.

Then she thought of something again, "Of course, if you can really repair this kind of large-scale alchemy array, we will pay you for it, and I would like to hire you as the alchemy consultant of the Ministry of Magic, responsible for the maintenance of the alchemy array in the Ministry of Magic in the future."

Anduin was overjoyed when he heard this. This is a good job. Wouldn't that mean he could openly study the alchemy array in the Ministry of Magic? He had long been interested in this large-scale alchemy, and he could also get paid. It was simply a win-win situation. Minister Bardoe was indeed a generous person.

Then Anduin thought of something again, "Thank you for your love, but this time just consider it as me helping. I just want to ask you for two favors later."

"What favors?" Minister Bardoe raised her eyebrows and asked.

"First of all, can I borrow the pocket that summons Inferi from the battle scene that day to study it?" Anduin revealed his goal.

"That alchemy item?" Minister Bardoe couldn't help but exchange glances with Amelia when she heard this. Then Amelia took over and said, "That is a very evil and dangerous dark magic alchemy item. What are you studying that for?"

After they retrieved the item, they stored it in the Department of Mysteries. The destructive power of this dark magic equipment was too strong and it was a super dangerous item. They didn't dare to hand it over to Anduin without asking his purpose.

"It is precisely because it is dangerous that we must find a way to counter it." Anduin smiled slightly, "No one can be sure that there is not another one of this equipment in the Silver Spears. If we can find its weakness through research, it can reduce more losses in the future."

"This is like studying counter-spells. If we encounter dangerous things, and we only know to bury them, we can sit back and relax. Then when we encounter them again, we will still know nothing about them."

After hearing Anduin's explanation, Minister Bardoe deliberated for a moment, and then nodded as if she had made up her mind, "Okay, but the entire research process must be completed within the Ministry of Magic, and you must not take it away. Moreover, we must have someone present to observe, and the research results must be shared with us."

"These are reasonable conditions, of course there is no problem." Share the results? Even if I give it to you, can you really understand it? Anduin laughed secretly in his heart.

"What is the other favor? Is it also about alchemy items? We have already determined the previous procurement terms. Adding your new [Tactical Map] and [Security Gate], our budget for this time is already a lot."

Amelia looked at Anduin with some wariness. The Ministry of Magic had spent a lot of money this time, spending almost ten thousand Galleons, but mainly because the equipment supplied by Anduin was really good.

The two high-level officials, who originally only wanted to make compensatory purchases, couldn't help but buy a little more in the end. This time, it was not just tactical equipment, but also a lot of civilian equipment. Amelia even secretly bought a top-of-the-line magic gramophone for her office, and of course the Minister's office also had one.

"As for the second thing, it does not involve any money, and it is actually just a matter of lifting a finger for the Ministry of Magic." Anduin chuckled.

"It's about Sirius Black."

"Sirius Black?" As soon as Minister Bardoe heard this name, the smiling expression on her face immediately became serious, and then she looked at Anduin with sharp eyes.

"Why did you suddenly mention this person? He is the culprit who indirectly killed the Potter couple, and a traitor to the Order of the Phoenix. I advise you to have less to do with him." Bardoe said sternly.
