Chapter 920: You Might as Well Leave the Resurrection Stone with Him First
Ivan touched his chin. Not many people had the ability to make themselves feel in danger...
But maybe, after all, he has just merged with the blood of Thunderbird, and his perception of threats is much stronger than before, so his previous experience cannot be used as a comparison.
"Iris?" Pierce pondered for a while, and then said. "I have heard of this man! He is quite famous in France. Not only did he graduate from Beauxbatons with honors, he also became the director of the Department of Mysteries before he was thirty!"
"I heard from those intelligence officers that it was Iris who discovered traces of the activities of Grindelwald's followers before. He uncovered several betrayers in the French Ministry of Magic some time ago. Now he is still responsible for interrogating prisoners. He is deeply loved by that person. The minister’s trust…” Pierce gushed.
"It seems that France also has talented people." Ivan raised his eyebrows and said in surprise, but it's right to think about it. It's normal for France to have one or two outstanding geniuses.
"Then what should we do next? Do you plan to stay in France?" Pierce asked.
"No, let's go back to England!" Ivan shook his head. He had just snatched the Resurrection Stone from Grindelwald, and now he needed to be wary of the other party's revenge.
Moreover, the process of this battle also gave Ivan a deep understanding of Grindelwald's power, so he needs to make a handy wand as soon as possible, and then find a way to figure out the secrets of the Three Deathly Hallows.
Perhaps the story of the three brothers is more than just a legend, otherwise there is no way to explain why the Invisibility Cloak can exert more powerful abilities in Grindelwald's hands.
"By the way, Minister Pierce, I recently sent someone to keep an eye on this place. I have a very bad feeling." Ivan reminded him solemnly.
Pierce naturally agreed wholeheartedly.
At the same time, in the minister's office, the French minister, who had been disgraced by Ivan and others, was furious and vented his depression on his subordinates.
For more than a month, they have sent hundreds of Aurors everywhere to search for clues about Grindelwald. In the end, they were not able to find out even the news that the other party planned to sneak into Nico Flamel's tomb to steal the treasure. This is simply a shame!
If the two foreign wizards hadn't accidentally collided and sabotaged each other's actions, they might have been kept in the dark by the time Grindelwald accomplished his goal and left France safely...
The French minister's roar lasted for more than an hour. When the Aurors came out of the office together, all of them had bitter looks on their faces. They were all given a death order, and all the people in France must be killed within two weeks. Find out all the saints.
After the crowd gradually dispersed, Ellis returned to the lounge alone. Just as he was about to enter the door, he suddenly seemed to notice something, looked at the end of the empty corridor, and spoke.
"Come out, Alison. I should have said that there is nothing important. It is best not to come to see me alone... Your current identity should have nothing to do with me..."
At the same time as the voice sounded, a witch's figure appeared out of thin air in the quiet corridor.
"Don't worry Green... Sir, most of the Aurors from the Ministry of Magic have been sent to Paris to deal with those Muggles. The remaining people will not notice here." The female Auror replied calmly, and then hesitated. After a while, he continued to ask.
"It's just that I don't understand why you stopped me from attacking Ivan Hals just now. That is obviously a good opportunity. We can definitely provoke a fight between Ivan Hals and the French Ministry of Magic, and wait until they both lose. Let’s clean up the mess and get that treasure back.”
Alison was really unwilling to sit back and watch Ivan Hals leave like this. They spent so much time and energy to capture the Resurrection Stone, but in the end it was taken away by the other party.
"You think too highly of that minister, Alison. With people from North America and England here, even if some conflicts arise, they will probably be settled. You might even be exposed because of this... This will seriously damage our follow-up work." Plan." Ellis said slowly.
The most important thing is that he cannot figure out the strength of Ivan Hals and is not completely sure that he can keep him here. Once Ivan Hals successfully escapes, everything he has done in France in the past few months will be lost. All the preparation was in vain.
"Then why don't you just cast a spell to control the minister and let him act according to your will? Wouldn't it be more convenient?" Alison asked in confusion.
"The Imperius Curse is not as powerful as you think. The Minister of Magic is always under the watchful eyes of interested people. If I cast the Imperius Curse on him, it would only be the same when Ivan Hals was confronting me. I'm afraid it has been exposed on the spot." Iris explained patiently, and then reminded him.
"In addition, don't forget, what we need most now is an identity that is not suspected. Only in this way can we successfully access that thing..."
Alison nodded, and her anxious mood calmed down.
Seeing that the witch understood what he meant, Iris spoke again. "Actually, we are not without gains this time. Ivan Hals caused quite a riot in Paris, involving tens of thousands of Muggles. It may not be easy to completely quell it."
"If there are more troubles, I believe the International Federation of Wizards will be forced to hold that meeting and invite representatives from various countries to go together. If nothing else happens, they will definitely bring the "key" with them."
"This opportunity only comes once, and until then we must not reveal our identities."
"So the Resurrection Stone might as well be stored with that Ivan Hals first, and then be taken back later." Ellis said decisively.
…
A week passed in a blink of an eye. After returning home from France, Ivan had a rare few peaceful days. The expected revenge did not come, as if Grindelwald had given up on this thing.
This made Ivan a little confused. The other party went all the way to France and forced his way into Nico Flamel's tomb to get something that was very important.
Ivan was even prepared for Grindelwald to come to England and challenge him for a duel, so he spent the past week desperately studying the new wand and practicing his newly acquired abilities. The result was like a punch to cotton. The whole of England was completely destroyed. There is no trace of Grindelwald...
This is not a bad thing at all. After staying at home for a few days and confirming that Grindelwald would not come to trouble him in the short term, Ivan set off for Diagon Alley, preparing to meet the British staff-making master, O. Levander.
