Chapter 326 Beast Priest
"Ahem..." A slight cough sounded suddenly, but it was Charles Potter who had been listening quietly.
"Since Mr. Liu has mentioned the information to this extent, our Potter family cannot hide it. For the sake of the safety of Great Britain-" Charles nodded to his second son Jeffrey, "My second son Jeffrey is the captain of the Transylvanian Guard and has been on the front line of monitoring and raiding the underground Necromancer Guild for a long time. Let me ask him to tell us the intelligence we have! I believe this will help everyone infer the current situation! Helps.”
Apparently, Charles had realized that his information was not truly "unique" and its value had rapidly depreciated, so he quickly asked Jeffrey to share it with everyone to prevent the Potter family from being isolated.
To be honest, although he really wanted to get benefits from Dumbledore, especially the inheritance of the main line of the Potter family that he had coveted for a long time, he also understood that troubled times were coming and they could not survive alone. If the Order of the Phoenix lineup headed by Bullido finally achieves a glorious victory, it will undoubtedly be a great help to the career of himself, his family, and his two sons.
Thinking about the worst, there is only one underage child left in the main line of the Potter family. If something unfortunate happens in these troubled times, then the Potter family will inevitably choose a new main line to inherit the Potter family's ancestral home and inheritance. Wait, then the Charles lineage must develop its strength to compete with other branches.
Jeffrey stood up and said: "My colleagues and I have noticed that the actions of the Necromancer Guild have indeed become more frequent throughout the year - although there is no evidence to prove that they will directly participate in Volp The plan deployed by Gith in Great Britain, but - we have reason to believe that at least a few of them have already made contact with Walpurgis."
Jeffrey paused for a moment before continuing: "Since its establishment, the Necromancer Guild has always adhered to the principle of staying aloof and keeping a low profile. However, due to its complex composition of members, especially many of them are vampires, zombies, mummies, etc. Waiting for the Living Dead, some of its members have always exhibited restless behavior, but under the supervision and suppression of the Ministry of Magic in Transylvania, the situation has been under control - we suspect that this time, for those who have always been unwilling to be lonely This is a great opportunity for the dark wizard to step onto the world stage..."
"In order to obtain this precious information, several of my comrades have sacrificed their lives -" Jeffrey's tone was a little low, but he still maintained a steady tone and continued: "We found the representative of Walpurgis. , is actually a 'Cobra' active in West Asia——"
"There is a mysterious male wizard from Cobra who frequently appears in Transylvania. On one occasion, we even managed to detect a meeting between him and several figures in the Necromancer Guild, and successfully obtained the identity of the mysterious wizard. Portrait - My eldest brother Ren is a bounty hunter who has been active in West Asia all year round." When Jeffrey said this, Ren nodded to everyone, "He said - the person on the portrait is probably the founder of Cobra. The man and manipulator behind the scenes - Jafar Yahya..."
Ren nodded and said in a deep voice: "I have been in West Asia for many years and have dealt with Cobras a lot. According to the portrait and information that Jeffrey gave me, I am 90% confident that that person is Ye Hai. Ya.”
"What? Is Jafar still alive?" Dexter Fusco in the portrait in the principal's office couldn't help but shout.
Principal Fusco is the best at the history of magic among the previous principals of Hogwarts. Regarding the life of Jafar, he has the most say in the principal's office at this moment. "It's been almost a thousand years." ? Another immortal old monster?"
"I'm afraid so," Ren said solemnly, "We find this conclusion unbelievable, but there are various evidences that show that the probability of this speculation being true is extremely high..."
Jeffrey ignored everyone's solemn expressions and took over Ren's words and said: "Among the people who came into contact with Jafar, there was the one Mr. Liu mentioned just now - the corpse breeder Kotomine from the East... "
Everyone nodded - the information came from two unrelated sources, but the facts were consistent, self-consistent, and complementary to each other. It seemed to be extremely credible.
"Although we have not found that the president and core personnel of the Necromancer Guild are involved, the sporadic activities of the union members are obviously increasing day by day. In addition to Kotomine, there is another person who must be mentioned-" Jeffrey paused and then said: "That is the famous dark wizard from Egypt - Anubi."
"Anubi?" Newt said in surprise: "Are you talking about the actual person in charge of Cairo's underground black market - 'Beast Priest' Anubi?"
Newt once visited Egypt in the early 1920s - he was already an authority in the field of magical animals at the time - he was entrusted by Dumbledore to rescue a smuggled animal from the underground black market in Cairo, Egypt. After a thrilling experience, he successfully rescued the thunderbird and named it Frank.
Then there is the plot in the Fantastic Beasts movie - Newt escorted the thunderbird back to its hometown of Arizona in the southwestern United States in 1926, and inadvertently got involved in Grindelwald while passing through New York. conspiracy and embarked on a great adventure.
Of course, what I want to mention here is not Newt’s experience in New York, but his adventures in Cairo, Egypt.
The person who cannot be avoided in the whole adventure is the Anubis mentioned by Newt.
Anubis is not only the actual ruler of the Cairo underground black market, but also an extremely terrifying dark wizard.
He was originally a curse remover specializing in the curse of the pyramid tombs. Later, by chance, he began to study the black magic of necromancy and captured a large number of wizards and Muggle children for human experiments. Later, after his crimes were exposed and he was wanted, he became even more aggressive and directly organized forces to openly confront the Egyptian Ministry of Magic. There are almost more than 20 Aurors who died in his hands, accounting for half of all the Aurors in Egypt in the past century.
Not only that, more than half of the twelve gravekeeper families guarding the Book of the Dead, one of the oldest pure-blood families in Egypt, were also slaughtered by him, which directly cut off the inheritance of the gravekeepers in Egypt.
Therefore, he ranked first on the wanted list of the Egyptian Ministry of Magic without any dispute. The bounty amount is about 10,000 gold galleons when converted into British currency. His reputation can be used to scare children in Egyptian wizard families.
In the process of rescuing Thunderbird, Newt had disguised himself as an international buyer and sneaked into the underground black market. He had dealt with several senior deacons in the underground black market and met Anubi from a distance.
It was just a quick glimpse, but Newt's natural intuition was enough to feel the extraordinary killing intent in Anubi - that was a temperament that only people who disregarded life and enjoyed killing could have.
It can be said that Newt and him are two extremes - Newt was born with the blood power of "Son of Nature" and has an innate affinity for magical animals; while Anubi has another personality power similar to that of a beast, not only cruel and bloodthirsty, but also has extremely keen animal instincts - the instinct of a hunter.
Fortunately, he was alert enough at the time and successfully escaped before being discovered.
Otherwise, he could be 100% sure that he would never be Anubi's opponent, and he would not even have the chance to escape.
