Chapter 744 Let’s Get Started, Follow the Old Rules!

"Mr. Hals, please forgive me for my offense. I think a special publicity department should be set up." Gleason walked out of the crowd and suggested nervously.

Propaganda?

Ivan raised his eyebrows and said. "Tell me about it..."

With Ivan's permission, Gleason bowed slightly and began to talk endlessly about the importance of setting up a publicity department.

The entire British magical world is much larger than Knockturn Alley, and the situation is more complicated.

Although they can occupy the Ministry of Magic and implement their rule through powerful force, doing so will eventually bring many disadvantages. The most direct impact is the endless troubles and riots that will follow.

Therefore, publicity must be carried out to let all wizards understand that they are the righteous party, and everything they do is for the future of the magical world...

Hearing this, Ivan nodded, of course he knew this.

Over the years, he has repeatedly asked Rita Skeeter to "truthfully" report his great achievements. In addition to trying to see if he can obtain legendary points, he also has the intention of self-promotion and suppressing the authority of the Ministry of Magic.

Regardless of Fudge's recent unsatisfactory performance as Minister of Magic, most of his mistakes have been forcibly covered up and not recognized by others.

If these things can be exposed through publicity, then the angry wizards will spontaneously oust Fudge without them taking action.

The more I think about it, the more I feel that it is indeed necessary to establish a publicity department, because mastering publicity channels often means mastering the right to speak.

"Your proposal is very good, Gleason, then you will be in charge of this newly established department!" Ivan said with appreciation.

"Thank you very much for your trust, Mr. Hals! I will not let you down..." Gleason bowed slightly to conceal his inner excitement, and slowly retreated back into the crowd.

Looking at the high-spirited Gleason, Rozier and others' eyes were full of envy. They knew that from today on, Gleason's status would be greatly improved, leaving them far behind.

"Does anyone else want to say something?" Ivan looked around at everyone. After waiting for a while, no one came forward, so he waved his hand and said.

"Then... the meeting is over now!"

Knowing that they could finally leave, the wizards present breathed a sigh of relief.

There was no way, the pressure that was vaguely emanating from Ivan made them feel frightened just standing here, so after saluting and saying goodbye, they all left the living room as if they were running away.

Ivan looked at everyone leaving in a hurry and shook his head helplessly. It seemed that this misunderstanding would not be clarified for a while...

After this meeting, in the next few days, Ivan put aside most chores and devoted himself to magic practice.

Ivan knows very well that expanding his power in the magic world and winning over powerful people are just small means. Only strong power is the foundation of everything!

This is also the reason why he dares to delegate power even when he is not in Knockturn Alley.

As long as their minds are not short-circuited, Doggett, Flan, and Gleason will be able to figure out that forming a clique for personal gain and conspiracy to rebel is a dead end.

The reason is simple. With the strength he showed that night, even if all the wizards in Knockturn Alley united, they wouldn't be enough for him to fight alone...

So what he needs to do most now is to turn this false combat power into reality as soon as possible, otherwise everything he has worked so hard to build will collapse instantly once he is betrayed.

However, it is not that easy to significantly improve your strength in a short period of time. Ivan was soon disappointed to find that he could not complete any of the tasks issued by the system.

Even the easiest minions of darkness had no choice but to give up after he took the time to go to Azkaban.

Of course, this does not mean that the Dementors have forgotten this "great hero" after more than a year.

On the contrary, this time the contact went very smoothly, and most of the dementors were willing to obey his orders, but even so, the progress of the mission did not increase at all.

While Ivan was confused, he could only guess that the mission target must require these dementors to surrender to him.

This is not incomprehensible. After all, he has the Boggart transformation and can disguise himself as Voldemort and command the Death Eaters, but this does not mean that he has conquered these people.

So after spending a long time developing the dementors into undercover agents, Ivan left Azkaban in frustration, temporarily giving up the idea of ​​using protection mode to improve his strength, and instead pinned his hopes on hard training.

The only good thing is that there are more than thirty dark wizards imprisoned in the underground fortress who can serve as sparring partners. This means that he does not need to stupidly cast spells on some wooden dummies, but can perform real magic in each game. Improve yourself in battle...

…

In the evening a week later, in the practice room of the underground fortress, a full fifteen wizards stood in every corner of the room, forming an encirclement.

Ivan, who was in the center and surrounded by a group of wizards, showed no fear at all. He just slowly pulled out the wand hidden in his sleeve and spoke casually.

"Let's get started, follow the old rules!"

"Oh~ I almost forgot that you don't have the memory of that time. In short, we don't accept surrender this time. You can surround and attack at will. If you can defeat me, I will release you from the cage..."

Ivan briefly explained the rules of the battle, and then stood in the middle waiting for them to take action.

The hands of the fifteen wizards present holding their wands were trembling, and their eyes looking at Ivan were filled with horror and despair.

Although there were many of them, no one thought they could win.

Because this kind of battle is obviously not the first time. Although they have no memory of previous battles, they are not stupid. No wizard has been released these days. Instead, everyone is injured inexplicably, and some are even seriously injured and die. .

If they had not been allowed to surrender, they would have knelt down and begged for mercy.

"Don't worry, I won't use all my strength, and I won't kill anyone. Since you don't plan to make the first move, let me make the first move!" Ivan was impatient with the wait, and took the lead in raising his wand.

At this moment, Ivan suddenly stopped casting the spell, but a red beam of light flew over from the side.

It was Avery who took action. His eyes were red and he yelled through gritted teeth. "There's no way out if we're stuck here. We'll fight this devil!"

"Confringo~! (Thunderbolt Explosion)"

"Reducto ~(broken to pieces)"

…

Under Avery's scolding, more and more wizards reacted, raised their wands one after another, and shot out magic beams one after another, intertwining into a large net in mid-air, blocking all Ivan's actions. retreat.

"This is the right thing!" Ivan said cheerfully, and in a flash, he used phantom to disappear. When he reappeared, he had instantly entered the dragon state and punched Avery in the face. …
