From Azkaban

"Can we go down, Mom?" On the second floor of another detached house, a little boy turned and looked at his mother.

"No, we can't disturb the adults at will. We have to wait for notification from Mr. Remus and Mr. Black."

At this time, Locke was feeling the gazes coming from both sides on the road, but he was thinking, "They are so cautious. It seems that these werewolves have not walked out of the shadow of the past. I have to talk to Lupin and strengthen the improvement of the werewolves' living environment and social status."

Locke has always attached great importance to werewolves. After all, they are the only base for cultivating high-end deterrent combat forces in the magic world.

Locke is not a person with cerebral palsy Americanism or Japanese cerebral palsy thinking. He has good things but does not think about cultivating and improving them, but instead creates troubles.

"Adult" x2

Just as Locke was thinking about these arrangements, Lupin and Sirius appeared from the corner walking on the snow and walked quickly to Locke.

"Don't get so excited, I'm just here to take a look."

Locke, who saw that the two were worried, spoke first. Sirius and Lupin felt relieved when they heard this.

Both of them knew that Locke would never conceal anything or say something ambiguous to keep them guessing. Basically, whatever Locke said was the truth. If he said there was no problem, then there must be a problem.

After that, Locke asked Sirius and the other man to take him to visit the werewolf village, and at the same time summoned all members of the werewolf team to come.

This was the first time Locke met these complete werewolf members in real life.

Looking at the werewolf troop members standing neatly in two rows, Locke, who had not taken action for a long time, suddenly had an idea. He asked Lupin to come in as well, saying that he was ready to practice with them.

"........"

The werewolf members who heard Locke's words looked at each other. It was not that they were arrogant, on the contrary, they had a clear understanding of their own strength, so they understood how powerful twenty complete werewolves were.

Not to mention that Locke still let Lupin go with him, which is even more terrifying. You know, in normal training, Lupin can basically beat five or six of them alone without any problem.

So now after Locke said this, all the members of the werewolf army fell silent.

"Just do whatever the adults tell you to do. What, have you forgotten what I taught you?"

Compared to the others, Lupin, who was very clear about Locke's strength, frowned and walked forward, taking off his coat while scolding.

"Yes!"

All the members hurriedly followed Lupin and rushed to the training ground not far away.

"I'm so sorry, sir, these guys..." Sirius opened his mouth to plead for mercy, but was interrupted by Locke.

"This is normal. A fully-formed werewolf is indeed very strong. It's normal for him to be a little arrogant. Just give him a beating and he'll be fine."

Locke smiled. The reason why he suddenly proposed a fight was because he realized this.

How to say it, it doesn't matter if they don't have the ability, but Locke thinks he is quite strong, so naturally he has to dispel the arrogance of these members and let them know that they can be arrogant to others but not to him.

At the same time, these members must also be taught that moderate arrogance is beneficial, while excessive arrogance is harmful.

After all, as the Three-Body Problem says, weakness and ignorance are not obstacles to survival, but arrogance is.

"Gudong~"

Sirius looked at Locke with a smile on his face and slowly swallowed his saliva. For some reason, looking at Locke at this moment, he suddenly recalled the scene when he first met Locke in Azkaban.

Locke was like this at that time, with a smile on his face, but his hands were not polite at all.

Faced with such a situation, Sirius could only mourn silently for Lupin and those members in his heart.

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

In the open air training ground, Locke stood opposite the twenty-one werewolf troops including Lupin.

"Are you ready?" Locke asked Lupin with a smile on his face.

"All right, sir," Lupin nodded.

"Then let's get started." The moment the words were spoken, the venue began to change dramatically. In the blink of an eye, the originally open-air venue suddenly capped the roof and turned into a sealed space. Then, as Lupin's expression changed instantly, Locke's body quickly rose up.

"It's over now. It seems that the adults are serious..."

The sealing of the venue was actually fine, but Locke took off into the air, and when Lupin saw this, he already knew the outcome.

"Transform!" Even though he knew the result, he had to fight, and he had to fight with all his strength, otherwise it would definitely be worse. Lupin, who understood this, shouted loudly and changed his voice first.

"Anti-air tactics!"

Thanks to their regular training, all members were ready in less than a second. Then Lupin roared, and the next moment, all the werewolves disappeared from the spot.

"Buzz~~", Sian Westin opened it after a long time. Looking at the werewolf members who had surrounded him without any blind spots in the blink of an eye, Locke smiled slightly and raised his hand symbolically. Countless steel ribbons rose from the ground, tied up the feet of all the werewolves, and then slammed them to the ground.

"Bang bang bang bang bang!"

In an instant, the originally flat ground was shattered, just like the Hulk hitting Loki. The werewolves tied up by steel ribbons were hit more than a hundred times in just one second. Countless large and small pieces of gravel were smashed up and moved little by little in the infinitely slowing world.

Volume 1: Chapter 198: Cleansing

The one-sided crushing training did not last long. Even though all members of the werewolf army had "Rapid Healing" engraved on them and had the first-level magic pattern tattooed on them, they still could not hold on for too long.

As the closed training ground gradually returned to its original state, Sirius, who was standing on the sidelines, looked at all the werewolf troops lying on the ground of the training ground and had not yet returned to their original state. His expression looked a little bit reluctant, but also a little bit gloating.

Just as Sirius walked quickly into the training ground, the broken and sinking ground began to recover quickly, and all the werewolf troops lying on the ground struggled to get up from the ground and turned back into human form.

"grown ups"

Sirius walked to Locke who fell from the sky, and Lupin, who had turned back into a human, also came with twenty complete werewolves.

"grown ups"

Lupin lowered his head. To be honest, he was shocked by Locke's strength. In his opinion, facing twenty-one complete werewolves, the adults would surely win, but he didn't expect it would be so easy.

Throughout the whole process, Locke didn't even use any other means. He just used his desperate Transfiguration to beat the twenty-one people so that they had no power to resist at all.

Compared to the last test at Malfoy Manor, this training was obviously more intense.

"Well, that's pretty good. Judging from the current situation, even the worst werewolf has nearly twice the combat power of you, Lupin, when you first turned into a werewolf."

Locke felt very comfortable after a round of hitting with sandbags. Looking at the werewolf members who had a depressed look on their faces and had not yet recovered from the training just now, Locke smiled with satisfaction.

This is what we need to do, to make these members who have suddenly gained powerful strength understand that they cannot be completely arrogant. I believe that this training can make them change their mindset.

You have to know that even the current Locke does not dare to think that he is really invincible.

"I'm still far from being as good as you, sir," Lupin said with a wry smile on his face, but it disappeared immediately. He turned around and looked at the twenty people behind him who were still dejected.

"Now you know what true strength is, right? I've told you so much, but none of you believed me. You even dared to be arrogant in front of adults. Now, all of you must practice harder! Your Christmas vacation is gone, and the training intensity will be tripled!"

Lupin looked at the twenty team members who had caused him to be scolded. Although he was angry, he did not hate them, and his anger also included himself.

After all, he is the leader and manager of this army, so in this situation, he also has an unshirkable responsibility.

Lupin understood that although he didn't say it on the surface, there were actually changes in his heart. Otherwise, he wouldn't have known the situation of these team members but didn't interfere directly.

Now that he had gone through Locke's education, Lupin once again recalled the feeling he had when facing Locke.

A powerful wizard like Locke has never been complacent and has never stopped moving forward. How can he have the qualifications to be proud?

"Yes!"

There was a uniform response, and without Lupin's guidance, the twenty people quickly formed a team, ran to the side, and started training after a brief rest.

Because they did not want to turn into werewolves for the time being, the twenty members took out their wands in tacit understanding and began to practice the spell that Lupin had just taught them this morning.

The members of the werewolf unit began training, and Locke took Lupin and Sirius away from the training ground.

"How is the construction plan of the foreign werewolf village going?"

Walking on the road to the werewolf village, Locke, who was walking in front, slowly opened his mouth to ask. At this moment, more and more people appeared on the road, and it was obvious that they had received the message.

"Progress is going smoothly, sir. The first batch of pilots were selected from countries with chapters."

The so-called branches are the countries where the core members are located. Now the Round Table is only strong in the British wizarding world and has basically no reputation in other countries.

Even France, which has received the most information so far, has reported that Rodolphus has already reported that proposals have been made within the French Ministry of Magic to prevent the Round Table.

So far, the French magic community has been deliberately suppressing and curbing some things related to the Round Table Council. Except for the Magic Network Company, which they think has little influence, many related things have been restricted.

At the same time, Rodolphus' activities in France began to become gradually difficult. Compared with before, they needed to be more cautious, the growth of members was no longer as fast as before, and there were more and more issues that needed to be taken into account.

Obviously, as the Round Table grew stronger, this neighbor had gradually become wary, and the French Minister of Magic was clearly more capable and decisive than this Fudge.

Therefore, Locke could foresee that as the Round Table took complete control of the British wizarding world and transformed it into a base camp and began to expand outward, the situation at that time would certainly not be as peaceful as it was in the British wizarding world.

Bloody conflict is bound to happen, but this is what Locke wants. After all, not everyone is suitable to get on board, and he has to find a way to clean out all those who are dragging their feet, those who are stubborn, and those who are always thinking about reversing the course of things.

After all wizards of that kind are humanely destroyed, the overall transformation can be faster and smoother.

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

After that, Locke stayed in the werewolf village, waiting for the night to fall.

In London, as night fell, William, who had already prepared himself, carefully took the invitation on the table and put it in his chest pocket.

"The time is almost up. The invitation letter said that a car would come to pick me up. Should I go out and wait in advance?"

With an excited heart and trembling hands, William felt nervous, excited and expectant at the thought of attending a celebration party hosted by a great nobleman.

"Knock knock", just when William was thinking about whether he should go out and wait at the door, a sudden knock on the door interrupted his thoughts.

"!" William was startled when he heard the knock on the door. He immediately raised his hand to quickly tidy up his clothes and facial expression, suppressing his excitement and maintaining a decent smile.

"Click", William opened the door and saw a man in a black suit. When the man saw him open the door, a smile appeared on his face.

"Excuse me, is this Mr. William Sam?"

"It's me. I wonder if there's anything I can do for you, sir?" As William replied, he moved his eyes and caught a glimpse of the carriage parked behind the man.

"Mr. William has already guessed it, hasn't he? Could you please show me the invitation?"

Hearing this, William excitedly clenched his right hand quickly, and then nodded immediately.

"This is my invitation," William took out the invitation from his breast pocket and handed it to the man.

"Well, thank you very much for your cooperation. Please get in the car now." The man looked down at William's invitation letter, and after confirming that it was correct, he turned sideways and raised his hand, motioning William to get in the car.

Volume 1: Chapter 199 Banquet

The carriage was too cramped or, to put it another way, unreasonably spacious. This was William's first impression when he got in the carriage.

Although I haven't looked closely from the outside, the size of the carriage is larger than it appears.

"......"

The excitement gradually cooled down. William, who found something wrong, observed it more carefully and confirmed that he was not wrong.

"This..." The situation beyond his cognition made William's mood change rapidly. Just when he was thinking about whether to ask the coachman, his expression suddenly changed drastically.

"What's going on!" William looked outside through the window of the carriage, but saw that the scenery outside was rapidly receding.

This speed was obviously not something a horse-drawn carriage could achieve, and most importantly, he felt nothing at all while sitting in the carriage.

Seeing this situation, William, who was just excited and expectant, suddenly broke out in cold sweat on his forehead and his mouth became dry.

"Please don't be nervous Mr. William, this is all normal."

Just when William didn't know how to react, the coachman's voice came from outside the carriage, making William, who was wondering whether to take the risk, instantly become obedient.

William was in the same situation as his other four companions, and five carriages were also rushing towards the manor.

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

In the Werewolf Village, seeing that the time was almost up, Locke used Teleport to leave and appeared outside the gate of the manor according to the address given by Lucius.

"Oh!"

Coincidentally, when Locke arrived, Lucius also arrived with Locke, Amandine and the other two, and they were getting off the carriage one by one.

"Sir," the people who heard the sound turned around and saw Locke who had just appeared. Lucius quickly stepped forward and bowed to greet Locke.

"Well", without much small talk, everyone entered the manor after a brief greeting.

At this time in the manor, Hermione's family, who had just followed Harry's family, were following behind Vernon Dursley and Narcissa, looking at the entire hall curiously.

Different from what it looked from the outside, the hall was divided into many areas after the Traceless Stretching Spell was used, and the area where everyone was at the moment was located in the center.

Except for the bridges that connect each area, other places are all disconnected. Under the bridges, there is a dreamy starry sky, and above the hall, there are various fantasy scenes that are constantly changing and in line with the overall style.

"It's so beautiful, magic is so powerful."

Hermione's mother held Hermione's father's hand tightly, looking here and there, already dazzled.

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

"Sir, you can get off now."

The door of the carriage opened automatically. William in the carriage swallowed his saliva and got off the carriage hesitantly.
