Hogwarts starts with stealing power.

Chapter 769 Dumbledore's Determination, The Final Preparations

Over the past three years, Dumbledore has led no fewer than ten attacks, each of which has yielded effective results.

Conversely, they are also gaining a deeper understanding of evil gods.

When one no longer fears the power of evil gods and peels back the veil concealing their eeriness, those evil gods are nothing more than another species.

Everything in the universe is interconnected and mutually restraining; there is no power that cannot restrain them.

Of course, it was impossible for wizards in the magical world to be without casualties on the battlefield, and hundreds of elite Aurors also died.

Because of the war, the magical world has taken on a completely new look, and various technological innovations have been quickly put into use.

And graduates from the past few years have all found jobs.

The long-dormant magical world seems to have found a way forward through war.

If they can defeat the evil god who has invaded the True Ancestor World, then the True Ancestor World can become the second world ruled and occupied by wizards.

Moreover, the situation in the True Ancestor World is not as complicated as in their own world.

In the world of the True Ancestors, everyone possesses abilities; there are no Muggles.

They could move the wizarding headquarters to the world of the True Ancestors, developing a world unique to wizards, which would also alleviate conflicts with the Muggle world.

"Dumbledore, have you made up your mind?"

The Minister of Magic's office was occupied by Barbling, Dumbledore, and Nico.

These three individuals represent the highest combat power in the Wizarding World, and are the highest combat power that the Wizarding World has nurtured using all its energy.

However, all three knew that although they each possessed unique abilities, their individual power could never reach the level of a high-ranking evil god.

After several years of testing, they have found a way to deal with low-level evil gods. If high-level wizards organize properly, they can eliminate them.

Even mid-level evil gods can clash with each other and fight to a standstill.

However, at the level of higher-ranking evil gods, they have not yet found a solution.

Even if the three of them joined forces, they could only escape from the pursuit of a high-level evil god, and that was all they could do. Don't even think about launching a counterattack.

So in recent years, although they seem to have invaded the world of evil gods very seriously and gained the upper hand, they have actually been trying their best to use the resources of the world of evil gods, that is, the world of the true ancestors, to supplement the world of magic.

Let's see if their world can use these resources to develop a top-tier strategy just like theirs, or to propel one of the three of them to the next level.

If the latter option is chosen, Dumbledore undoubtedly has the greatest potential among the three.

Because he is the youngest.

Babling is much older than Nico. Although she has gained enormous resources and promotions in the magical world, and is willing to stay in the magical world to help the original power transform, her soul imprint is ultimately not that of a person from the magical world.

Nico has already thrown the Philosopher's Stone, deciding to end her seemingly immortal lifespan.

Death is a great adventure, and he has grown bored with the daily routine.

Therefore, Dumbledore is the person with the best chance of being promoted in the wizarding world.

With Dumbledore's resources, if he could take another step forward and glimpse the path to godhood, possessing abundant energy like a high-ranking evil god, he could definitely lead the magical world to a comeback.

Dumbledore looked out the window with his deep blue eyes, his voice soft but steady and powerful.

"I have made up my mind. This time I will delve into the world of the evil god to seek resources for advancement."

Nico couldn't help but say, "But this is too dangerous. We've been frequently invading the world of evil gods in recent years, and two high-level evil gods have already been awakened. According to the descriptions of the mutants, there are as many as ten powerful high-level evil gods. What if they've all awakened when you get there?"

Babling said with utmost calmness, "Most importantly, the last time the three of us explored the world of evil gods together, we were already being targeted by one of the high-level evil gods."

If the three of us hadn't joined forces, we might not have been able to escape from Him.

I suspect that the three of us have been branded, and that once we enter the world of the evil god, He will sense us.

"You're entering the world of evil gods alone; without our help, how will you ensure your safety?"

Dumbledore said in a deep voice, "But the energy I have accumulated has reached its limit, and I can no longer stay in the magical world. If I don't leave, I will absorb the original energy of the magical world in reverse and push myself to a higher level."

This instinctive drive for advancement is something even my will cannot suppress; I have been waiting for this advancement for a long time. Just over a decade ago, I even glimpsed the destiny of this world.

Babling said astutely, "Destiny? You mean Harry Potter?"

Dumbledore nodded: "Harry is the chosen one of the wizarding world. If the wizarding world is willing to expend its resources to create a higher power, then only Harry can succeed."

Nicole suddenly realized: "That's why you used Voldemort as a touchstone to constantly hone Harry."

Babling: "If that's the case, why not wait a little longer?"

Dumbledore gazed intently at the boundless sky and said, "I can't wait any longer. I didn't expect to glimpse the path to the next advancement so quickly. There's no time left to wait for Harry to grow up."

I want to go to the world of evil gods on my own; my intuition tells me that the path for me lies there.

Babuling looked at him, her tone heavy, "Even this trip might not be a one-way trip?"

Dumbledore nodded. "Yes, even if this trip may very well be a one-way trip."

Babling was silent for a moment, then said, "If you really want to go, then go. The magical world has received some resources from the evil god world in recent years and is developing better and better."

Moreover, the spatial barriers of the magical world have become much stronger than before, so even if the world of evil gods wanted to launch a full-scale invasion, it would take at least several decades.

"In the decades to come, if you are unable to return, I am confident I can train a wizard as excellent as you."

Dumbledore seemed to have thought of something and said apologetically, "I am sorry about what happened to Lin Xia. She is a very bright student, and if she can continue to grow, her future prospects will definitely be no less than mine."

Babling shook her head: "She has her own path, and it was I who allowed her access to the restricted book area; I gave her that permission."

Although our men haven't been able to find her, I have a feeling that she'll reappear when the time is right, and perhaps even give us a surprise.

Dumbledore bid farewell to his two friends at the end.

With him gone, the Ministry of Magic will have to rely on these two to keep it afloat.

Decades later, Nikolai will have used up all the remaining elixir of immortality and will eventually leave. Therefore, the final outcome of the magical world will ultimately be determined by Babling.

Nico had spoken with Dumbledore a few days ago after learning of his thoughts, expressing concern about whether Barbling could fairly govern the world order.

But Dumbledore felt reassured about Barbling.

"If she really wanted to destroy the magical world, she could have done it thousands of years ago. The magical world today is far more robust than it was thousands of years ago."

"I believe she can lead the Ministry of Magic well. My only concern is that she is devoid of emotion and has lost the feelings that belong to humans."

"But Lin Xia's appearance showed me her care for her students. It's not that Babling doesn't love this world, it's just that she has a special fondness for geniuses."

After making the final arrangements, Dumbledore arrived at Hogwarts.

Hogwarts was his favorite place, and if he were to die one day, he hoped to die at the school.

He didn't need many people to come and see him off; to die in Hogwarts was already a fitting end.

If he hadn't suddenly fainted more than a decade ago and had a precognitive dream, he wouldn't have chosen to fight for power and become the headmaster of the Ministry of Magic.

Knowing that the future situation would be very grim, Dumbledore resolutely decided to take up the mantle, not wanting Hogwarts to suffer so much hardship in the future.

Furthermore, through precognitive dreams, he discovered that the Ministry of Magic played a very significant role.

It is not only a powerful violent institution, but also capable of silently influencing the entire magical world.

He didn't have outstanding prophetic abilities, so this precognitive dream was the general consciousness of the magical world trying to tell him something, which allowed him to know the likely events that would occur in the next ten years or so.

If you truly don't want to become a scene from a premonition dream, don't want your school to be trampled on, and don't want to become powerless, then you must start changing now.

Dumbledore and McGonagall walked along the paths of Hogwarts, looking at everything around them, and then looking back at the magnificent castle of Hogwarts, as if they wanted to imprint it deep in their hearts.

He gazed for a long, long time, his eyes filled with many complex emotions, which finally turned into a clear and bright expression.

He has made up his mind: he will succeed or die trying!
If he still harbors any lingering attachment, then he probably really won't be able to return from the world of evil gods.

He had dealt with evil gods many times and knew that such beings were very good at manipulating people's hearts.

They will seize upon and defeat all the weaknesses of human nature.

For example, Tom Riddle.

This child wasn't born evil, and he did try to save him.

But clearly, by the time he realized something was wrong, it was already too late.

His suppression triggered the child's rebellious nature, leading him to be seduced by evil gods and gradually degenerate into his current state, neither human nor ghost.

McGonagall keenly sensed that Dumbledore was different today; he seemed to be filled with sorrow and had a deep longing for Hogwarts.

But no matter how hard McGonagall thought about it, she couldn't understand why Dumbledore would have such emotions.

After all, in today's magical world, everything is moving upwards.

The alchemical glasses have completed testing and will undergo large-scale testing next week.

At that time, all races in the magical world will be connected and able to receive messages from each other at any time.

As for the Ministry of Magic, it has been thriving for the past three years, constantly recruiting elite Aurors.

The forbidden book area, which is most prone to accidents but also the most efficient place to obtain forbidden knowledge, has not caused any trouble recently, and everything is going smoothly.

Many Aurors have reported that the intensity of the raucous pronouncements of the evil gods in the forbidden book area has decreased.

McGonagall did not blame Lin Xia for the decrease in the intensity of the evil god's ramblings, after all, Lin Xia had been missing for a long time.

She believes that the wizarding world's continuous attacks on the evil god world over the past few years have yielded excellent results, further weakening the evil god world's power and thus indirectly reducing the intensity of the evil god's whispers entangled in the forbidden book area.

McGonagall said, "Headmaster, don't worry, I will protect Hogwarts while you are away."

Whenever Dumbledore was going to be away for an extended period, he would come to the school, and McGonagall was already quite experienced in this.

Dumbledore said, "McGarden, I will be away for quite some time this time, so I have decided to grant you the highest authority in the school. From now on, I am transferring the authority in my hands to you. You are the official headmaster of Hogwarts."

As soon as she finished speaking, McGonagall felt a powerful aura surging from the outside world, and that energy gently flowed into her body.

Once she becomes deeply connected to Hogwarts, she will gain access to some of the school's abilities.

This energy from the school will also improve her physical fitness.

On the other hand, her luck will also be connected with the school; as Hogwarts becomes more prosperous and powerful, she will become stronger and stronger.

In addition to these, there are many other benefits, which will not be elaborated here.

McGonagall sensed the gentle energy and a sense of unease crept into her heart. She stared intently at Dumbledore.

"You've disappeared for long periods before, but you've never handed over your official principal authority to me. Are you going to a very dangerous place to do something very dangerous?"

Dumbledore didn't look at McGonagall because he knew that although McGonagall had no talent for prophecy or divination, her sixth sense was very sharp.

He was afraid that McGonagall would figure something out and then come looking for him at all costs.

After all, he himself wasn't sure about what he was doing, so there's no need to drag innocent people down with him.

Dumbledore calmly said, "There are some things I have to do that I can't tell you, but please believe me, I won't put myself in danger if I'm not sure."

McGonagall frowned and said, "When you come back, I will transfer the principal's authority back to you."

Before Dumbledore could refuse, she continued, "Dumbledore, Hogwarts is very wealthy and needs a powerful wizard to oversee it. I am not at that level yet."

If I ever achieve that, I will definitely ask you for the headmaster's authority again. You're too busy; I know you don't have time to manage Hogwarts.

A smile flickered in Dumbledore's eyes. "Minerva, you've always worked very hard. In another ten years or so, you'll achieve what I have."

McGonagall didn't take it seriously, jokingly saying, "If Trelawney had said that, I might have believed it a little more." (End of Chapter)
