"Tell me why we can't start the transmission to Norway immediately." Alastor Moody, the middle-aged wizard sitting opposite him, asked dissatisfiedly.

Next to Moody, Nymphadora Tonks was also staring closely at the French Transport Secretary Aihan Herbert, seemingly waiting for his reply.

At this moment, Herbert also said helplessly: "There are a lot of wizards going to Norway recently. It is impossible for us to send anyone who says we want to go, and we will send them off at will."

"You have to be patient, make an appointment first, and then explain your purpose in the early stage, whether you have a letter of introduction, etc., and you will go through all the processes."

"I'm arranging for you to be teleported to Norway!"

After hearing Herbert's explanation, Tonks seemed very dissatisfied and said, "Since when did the cross-border procedures become so complicated? I never heard of it when I was in the UK."

“Do you have any means to shorten the process?”

At the same time, a space extension bag appeared in Nymphadora Tonks's hand, shaking slightly and making a sound of gold Galleons colliding.

Herbert took a greedy look at the space extension bag in front of him.

Then he showed an apologetic look and explained again: "I'm very sorry, this is a policy we just introduced, so the management is very strict. You must go through all the procedures and then queue up."

"Otherwise there's nothing I can do."

Hearing this, Tonks's expression turned cold and she took back the space extension bag in her hand.

Moody on the side took a deep look, his huge magic eyes kept turning, staring at Herbert who was waving his hands and making a helpless expression on the opposite side.

Then, he pulled Tonks behind him.

After Tonks followed Moody outside, she said angrily, "The people in the UK are playing tricks on us, saying that Norway has suspended the Floo Network with the UK and suggested that we come from France."

"As a result, the French side asked us to follow the procedures."

"Captain, what about Headmaster Dumbledore's mission? Digger and the others are waiting for us in the hall." Tonks asked Moody.

"The Purebloods are trying to get us back." Moody said coldly, "Don't worry, this isn't the only way to get to Norway."

"I have some acquaintances in France. Let's go there through smuggling channels."

"I believe it won't take long and we will be able to arrive in time."

"Okay, Captain," Tonks nodded.

He seems to have confidence in his captain.

.............

At the gate of Durmstrang School.

In the snow, Karkaroff and a group of professors stood at the door and waved goodbye to Lockhart.

Karkaroff took a step forward and said with blessing, "Professor Lockhart, due to some reasons, your lecture has to be interrupted. Many of our young wizard professors, including myself, feel sorry for this."

"However, we believe that you will be able to succeed and prove your innocence."

"You are welcome to come to Durmstrang again and I will tell you the rest of the rune knowledge."

Well, the situation is so serious that I believe that even if something really happens to Lockhart, Dumbledore won’t be able to say anything.

Seeing this, Lockhart smiled and said to everyone, "Don't worry, this incident was caused by Xiao Xiaozhi's people because they saw that I was not around. As long as I go back, everything will be resolved."

"I believe it won't be long before we meet again."

"When the time comes, I will share my latest research results with you."

Hearing this, Karkaroff and the professors responded.

Then, Gaolan Bolson, who had led the way before, stepped forward, took out a piece of parchment, and said apologetically: "Professor Lockhart, I'm very sorry, according to Durmstrang's usual practice."

"The exact location of the school needs to be kept confidential. Please sign the relevant contract."

"Then I'll take you to the Norwegian Ministry of Magic."

Lockhart nodded slightly, took a quick glance, found no problem, and signed his name on the contract.

Paulsen then handed the parchment to Karkaroff.

Then, he walked to Lockhart and said in a deep voice: "Professor Lockhart, hold on to me."

Without any doubt, Lockhart directly grabbed Poulsen.

Accompanied by a Disapparition spell.

The two figures disappeared, and Karkaroff and others returned to school.

Not long after, suddenly...

As the black shadows flashed, several figures appeared at the gate again.

It was Moody, Tonks, the Order of the Phoenix and others.

At this moment, Moody was holding a compass in his hand, as if trying to locate someone.

Then, his face changed, and he suddenly realized that the location was not in Durmstrang, but in another direction.

Chapter 309 Pure Blood Elders Council, Paulson's Plea

Norway, wilderness area.

Amidst the icy and snowy wasteland, a large number of figures in black wizard robes emerged.

From a distance, it was just a black dot.

But when he looked closer, he saw two wizards with old faces and one middle-aged wizard standing aside.

In front of them, dozens of wizards silently waved their wands, outlining a large number of lines of different colors and ancient runes in this snow-white wasteland.

"Andre, when was the last time we met?" Hermann Frank, the wizard of the Frank family, said with some nostalgia.

Andre Flint, who was standing aside, smiled stiffly after hearing Albert's question. He said, "It's been a while. The last time was probably 10 years ago."

"I still remember the last time we met, we should discuss the Dark Lord in the Elders' Council."

Hearing this, Herman nodded slightly and said with some regret: "I met the Dark Lord once a few years ago. I agree with his philosophy that pure blood is above all else."

"And he is indeed very strong, much stronger than us old guys."

"What a pity, he went crazy studying the dark arts."

At this moment, the middle-aged pure-blood wizard next to him, Donovan Travers, also interrupted calmly, "If he hadn't lost his mind and even wanted to subjugate the Elders, how could he be destroyed so easily?"

"Good talent, but unfortunately, too impatient."

In response to Donovan's evaluation, Andre also agreed: "You are right, Donovan, you must be cautious when studying black magic."

"We all have the support of our family background, so we won't take detours."

"But the Dark Lord has none of these."

Speaking of this, Andre was quite moved.

"However, this is also why we can see how terrifying his talent is." Herman said lightly: "He is indeed a person who can compete with Dumbledore."

Speaking of Dumbledore, Donovan said: "It's a pity that Dumbledore refused to join our Elder Council."

"Otherwise, Phoenix bloodline might be the key ingredient for our next step of extending lifespan."

"Don't even think about it." Andre said as if mocking himself: "He sees death more clearly than we do."

"I tried to win him over before, and he told me that death is just another great adventure!"

"I knew then that he was probably one of us."

Hearing this, Donovan and Herman were both silent.

After a moment, Herman changed the subject and said, "Have you received the message from the family? The Dark Lord seems to have appeared again."

"It seems that he was not completely dead last time. What do you think?"

"Same as before, I think our elders will not intervene." Andre said softly: "He still needs us if he wins. If he can't win, Dumbledore won't do anything to us."

"Although we are not afraid of them, there is no need to waste our limited lives just to fight them."

Both of them nodded at the suggestion mentioned by Andre.

The Elders Council they formed, in addition to maintaining the status of the pure-blood family, was most importantly for everyone to communicate with each other and seek immortality together.

In other words, life span is the key factor that unites them.

In addition to maintaining the status of a pure-blood family ruler, every member of the Council of Elders has a common characteristic: when they reach middle age or old age, they are eager to prolong their lives.

This is a pure-blood alliance formed for the purpose of immortality.

"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. What do you think of this action?" Herman changed the subject again and said, "It is said that the Witch Party reminded us not to underestimate Professor Lockhart."

"No matter how strong he is, as long as he falls into the magic circle this time, even if he is Dumbledore, he will lose a layer of skin."

Andre said calmly.

"Yes, as long as Grindelwald or Dumbledore doesn't show up, we can suppress it with just the three of us, even without the help of the magic circle."

"I just hope that this operation can minimize the loss of lifespan. Otherwise, even if there are supplements, I will have to sleep and recuperate for five or six years."

Hearing this, the other two also nodded confidently.

They didn't care about Professor Lockhart at all.

You know, even Voldemort was basically in middle age, around 50 or 60 years old.

The strength is greater than them.

And now, Professor Lockhart is only about 30 years old at most. Even if he tries his best to learn magic, how strong can he be?

Although these people are a bit old, it is time that gives them more opportunities to grow.

If it weren't for the Witch Party or... Grindelwald's reminder, I'm afraid these three old guys wouldn't have come this time.

As his thoughts turned, the wizard who was waving his wand and constructing the magic circle came forward and said respectfully: "Sir, the magic circle is basically complete, please check it."

After seeing this, Andre stretched out his wand and tapped it lightly. At the same time, he closed his eyes slightly, as if he was sensing the magic circle.

In an instant, a light grey light spread outwards, covering the entire magic circle.

The next moment, the magic circle gradually began to turn blood red.

Seeing this, the wizards on the side stood aside very respectfully, as if waiting for the judgment of the three adults.

Soon Andre opened his eyes, looked at his two friends beside him, and nodded slightly.

Then, facing the wizard who bowed his head respectfully, he said in a deep voice: "There is no problem with the magic circle. You should stay alert and be ready to take action at any time."

In their eyes, these wizards were used as cannon fodder at critical moments.

If they don't have to take action, and can deal with Lockhart with the help of magic circles and these wizards, then that would be a perfect choice.

So as not to waste their lives.

The three of them agreed to this without any discussion.

Although you will gain a lot of vitality in this mission, it is better to cherish it as much as possible.

After hearing this, the wizards stood aside respectfully.

However, they held their wands tightly in their hands and remained alert, as if waiting for a figure to appear in the middle of the magic circle.

As time passed, the magic circle seemed to be motionless.

suddenly....

The three of them turned their heads to the left at the same time, their faces changed, and what did they finally discover?

After looking at each other, Donovan said, "This Professor Lockhart is indeed not a simple person, since he can forcibly change the location of the Apparition."

"go!"

At a command, all the wizards waved their wands and chanted spells.

"Apparition!"

............

It’s about 5 kilometers away from the magic circle.

It was also a snowy field. A dark shadow flashed and two figures emerged.

However, almost as soon as they appeared, the two quickly separated.

At this moment, Lockhart looked at Gaolan Bolson, who was pale in front of him, and said jokingly: "Boulson, how is the effect of Apparition?"
