Chapter 264 Dementors, Delicious
After Kerry finished speaking, the room fell silent.
People seem to have a lot of opinions about this plan, which sounds like UMNO 2.0.
Moreover, this is the Order of the Phoenix, and the Order of the Phoenix would rather die than submit to extremism.
However, the fact that Kerry claimed to be Dumbledore's chosen one made everyone quite hesitant.
However, the arrival of some people at this time saved them from their predicament.
A house-elf, permitted to Apparate within the castle, appeared beside Snape.
"Outside the school, many Soul Eaters and Aurors have arrived."
This time, the leader was Rufus Scrimgeour, the Auror's Office Director.
An Auror who is not popular but is very serious about his work has a decent reputation among the people.
If Fudge and Umbridge fall from power, he will be the most likely person to succeed Barty the Elder as Minister of Magic now that Barty's reputation is ruined.
That's right. The Ministry of Magic came to power through elections after the great war many years ago. In fact, they only nominally considered themselves as an appendage of the British government, hence the name "Ministry".
At the head of the long procession were about 20 Dementors, which was already a large part of the monsters. According to the lore, the total number of Dementors had been increasing over the years, but the Ministry of Magic deliberately made it appear that their numbers had not changed.
Behind them was a large Auror force of about 60 men.
Don't be fooled by the seemingly humorous number of people involved; it is indeed quite humorous, but this is still a very generous gesture.
Because Dementors are usually Azkaban's prison guards, and these dark and cunning creatures only fear authority, like to devour souls, and care about nothing else.
Then the Aurors are the wizarding world's detectives, and also the only type of police. In this small government structure, civil disputes are usually handled by respected local figures like school principals or village chiefs, rather than by the police.
After all, there are only about 10,000 people in the entire British wizarding community. If you are willing to cultivate connections, you can even turn it into a close-knit community without using an atomic bomb.
These 60 or so people already represent most of the people that can be mobilized around Hogwarts.
After all, the wizarding world covers the entire British Isles, and Fudge's need to mobilize Aurors from afar would actually have a significant impact on local security.
Although he vehemently denied Voldemort's resurrection in the newspapers, he actually preferred to believe the claim made by Dumbledore's faction that Voldemort had already been resurrected, and had already begun arranging for his relatives and friends to leave the country ahead of time.
Upon hearing that someone dared to invade Hogwarts territory, Kerry immediately floated up and flew directly over everyone's heads.
After Kerry left the hall, the wizards began to whisper among themselves.
"Is he going to face the Auror army alone? I bet we'll be sneaking out of the fireplace soon." Seeing that Cupid was gone, the bound Blake revealed his true colors and began to speak from the pillar.
"And there are Dementors too, this is really troublesome. Should we go help them?" Lupin, who had become more gentle after experiencing the harsh realities of society over the years, asked with some concern.
“We don’t need to help a third Grindelwald. After he’s defeated, we’ll need to distance ourselves from him,” someone suggested, and this opinion was accepted by everyone.
The Order of the Phoenix is essentially a private military force, and now it's in the eye of the storm. They can't afford to let anything happen that would further damage its reputation.
Kerry's white robes fluttered in the air and then slowly fell. Looking at the army below the city, which numbered no more than 100 men, both living and dead, he deeply understood why the Ministry of Magic had no ability to fight back when Voldemort attacked.
It even led to the ridiculous situation where everyone ended up making teachers and students the last line of defense.
The slightest internal rebellion necessitates the mobilization of the surrounding areas, along with all the prison guards, resulting in a total of less than 100 people. These 100 individuals are all skilled in individual combat and have not undergone any scientific or rational training in magical team battles.
They were all standing together in a huge group.
This is why the perfect combination of Chain Lightning and Avada Kedavra has been lost; otherwise, by casting a few minor spells and marking the target, Avada Kedavra would have turned everyone into corpses.
"Hey! He's up there! It's that guy, just like the description!"
Below, it seemed as if a wizard's enhanced vision spotted Kree atop the high wall.
This system attracted the attention of all the wizards below.
Rufus, who was leading the group, raised his hand to signal everyone to draw their wands.
Then, holding his wand, he chanted something to amplify his voice and began shouting into the sky.
“Wizard named Kerry, Hogwarts is now completely surrounded by our Ministry of Magic. We demand that you immediately cease resistance and release the captured hostages, or we will show you no mercy in the battle!”
The shouts echoed loudly across the Scottish Highlands.
"Surround them? With less than a hundred of you?"
Kerry didn't chant any spells, but his voice, brimming with barely concealed laughter, echoed throughout the place.
However, Kerry himself was extremely vigilant, focusing his senses on the finest details, trying to detect any possible fluctuations in the air.
[Host, are you on guard?]
"That's right, don't you find it strange? Considering the time difference between my side, the Hokage, and this side, the other world's forces have probably been here for several months. But they not only chose to cooperate with the noseless ones who have no combat power, but they also didn't launch a large-scale attack on the Muggle world. If their combat power was sufficient, they shouldn't have been hiding like this."
However, I cannot be certain of the specifics.
Kerry internally responded to the system's question, seemingly troubled by the matter.
Moreover, Kerry didn't sense any spying, as if the thing hidden beneath the water hadn't even made any preparations to monitor the situation.
If the other side's intelligence network isn't completely closed off, or their technological capabilities are far beyond Kree's comprehension, then there must be something wrong here.
While Chris pondered the situation, the Aurors below could no longer remain seated.
Kerry's complete disregard for their words and his unwavering attitude of not intending to surrender undoubtedly provoked their anger.
Rufus frowned and then waved his hand.
"Let's do it!"
At a command, the Dementors, who were already thirsting for souls, immediately drifted towards the city wall like floating black shadows, their eerie laughter seemingly audible in the air.
The Dementor looks somewhat like the black shadowy figure in traditional Western horror films. It has a faceless, bald head where facial features should be visible, and its entire body is covered in black clothes that float like a ghost or a few tattered pieces of cloth.
These monsters, which feed on human emotions and souls, drifted in swarms over the castle, forming a dark cloud.
Kerry just found it quite funny to see these things coming forward.
At that moment, he was certain that what the setting book said about these things being able to sense emotions and smells was true.
Because if they could also see Kree's enormous soul, they would have turned tail and run.
The Dementor charging at the front seemed impatient, ignoring why the wizard in front of it didn't draw his wand to resist, but instead lifted its hood, wanting to give Kree an unforgettable kiss with its mouth.
But at that moment, Kerry also opened his mouth.
"Click!" It sounded like chewing instant noodles.
As soon as Kerry opened his mouth, the black monster that had approached him was sucked directly into his mouth, and then Kerry began to chew it.
The sound, like swallowing crunchy bone, came from his mouth.
Chapter 265 will definitely be a favorite!
"Hey, this is my first time eating crispy noodles with herbal jelly flavor."
Although it's a Dementor, it contains very little pure soul energy; it's mostly emotional energy.
Kerry's mutterings caught Cupid's attention.
"There are actually creatures that can directly extract emotional energy. If we had something as convenient as that over there, we probably would have already broken out of our universe."
Cupid's words were tinged with emotion, after all, emotional energy is a powerful form of currency in the multiverse.
However, this shows that Kerry didn't read the information carefully enough.
In the seventh movie, Potter said that the Dementors increased in number by absorbing people's happy emotions.
This shows that emotions and the soul are actually essential for their life and reproduction, unlike Kerry who stores up all his energy to cultivate power.
In some ways, these Dementors are also masters of sucking up loot.
Kerry's favorite thing to suck is the Sucking Master!
The Dementors that initially followed didn't realize what was happening, but once they did, they began to flee at an even faster pace than when they arrived.
"no no!"
You can even hear their cries of agony.
But Kerry doesn't care whether they wail or not.
With a swift movement of his left hand, he scooped up a Dementor and stuffed it into his mouth.
With a suck on the right, another Dementor was sucked into his stomach with a scream.
The wizards below were initially confused about what was happening. After Hogwarts was handed over to Snape, Snape had already enabled the ban on Apparition within the castle, which is why the wizards didn't just teleport in to rescue people.
Right now, everyone is working together to grow a magical pea sprout, making it grow as thick as a pillar and connect to the castle walls from the outside.
However, when Kree flew off the city wall and chased after the scattered Dementors, they finally realized something was wrong.
Rufus's face was full of astonishment and surprise.
In the wizard's understanding, any magic involving the soul is high-level, and the only way to fight against Dementors is the Patronus Charm.
Then, the Patronus Charm is quite difficult to learn, and most wizards can't use it.
This is why the Ministry of Magic allows these dangerous things to proliferate unchecked.
Both Umbridge and Fudge have had experiences of having Dementors do dirty work for them.
However, today's situation was completely beyond their expectations. The wizard who they thought would soon be surrounded and eaten by Dementors was actually chasing after them and eating them.
The original plan was for the Dementors to fight the enemy, while they only needed to figure out how to get past Hogwarts Castle to hinder the rescue of the hostages.
This turned out to be hilarious; the Dementors had become a buffet.
This was completely beyond the wizards' comprehension. Even if you were to be annihilated by these Dementors with a Patronus Charm, you would still look like a human being. How could you have turned against the Heavenly Guardians?
The wizards panicked. Under Rufus's command, they unusually mounted broomsticks and began to soar into the sky.
Upon seeing the group approaching, Kerry immediately began moving at top speed.
In the distance, at Hogwarts, amidst the horrified gazes of the wizards bound to the grass and the elves, the various pots and pans from the dining hall formed a giant steel dragon in the air and floated out from inside the Hogwarts castle.
Then the entire sky became a bullet hell game.
The wizards, who had originally hoped to fly and fight the enemy, were constantly dodging the flying pots and pans on their brooms.
Some, unfortunately, get hit and simply throw themselves to the ground with their brooms, becoming incredibly resilient.
Kerry also read the thoughts of these wizards. If they had just obediently acted as Aurors to protect the safety of the vast number of wizards, then he wouldn't have had to fall so hard.
If someone accepts bribes and likes to rummage through confiscated items in Fandao Lane, then just turn them into prison guards.
The profession of fighting against black magic wizards and outlaws on the front lines is admirable, but if they use the power given to them by the people to think about how to make their own lives better, or even to coerce the people in return, they deserve to be killed.
Although they were just everyday tools, in Kerry's hands they were like a meat grinder.
Blood splattered continuously in the air. The Aurors were in a panic, using Apparition and casting protective spells whenever possible.
For wizards who successfully cast the armor spell and thought they were temporarily safe, Kree would simply appear behind them and then kick them.
"No! Stop! You can't!"
Rufus tried to take command of the battle, but he was quickly kicked off the field as well.
The wizards couldn't believe it was real. Even Dumbledore would probably have to fight his way back against this group of Aurors.
Now they have no way to fight back at all.
Ultimately, I didn't play enough of the game; it lasted less than five minutes in total.
Most of the Ministry of Magic's own units were destroyed.
Kerry controlled the pots and pans as they floated back to the kitchen.
The little elf, who was just about to start preparing tonight's dinner, looked speechlessly at the blood and brain matter on the pot and began to wash it.
The Aurors who fell to the ground were quickly captured, and Rufus, with an expression of unyielding defiance, was tied up by the Kree.
It's easy to see from the various angles of the information that the Ministry of Magic in this era was deeply corrupt.
The most serious issues are those involving the Sports Department and Auror.
The black market can exist openly without any management, even though the Triwizard Tournament has a lot of funding but the venue production and viewing experience for ordinary wizards are not good, and there is even the Dark Lord's random appearance.
Amidst the last spray of blood and mangled limbs, a dozen or so Aurors who had spent their lives dutifully protecting others and fighting crime were captured by Kree and led into the city.
As for the magical creatures sent by the Ministry of Magic to observe the battle not far away, Kree didn't bother with them; what he wanted was for the Ministry of Magic to know the situation.
Kerry glanced at his reflection and realized that in just a few minutes he had accomplished what Voldemort had accomplished in half a lifetime.
