Chapter 434 Azkaban Rescue Plan
Azkaban is a wizarding prison located on an isolated island in the North Sea. It's guarded by dementors, and even the address is hidden.
Therefore, whether it is a Muggle map or a wizard's map, the location of Azkaban cannot be found on it.
Snapped!
On a cliff on the eastern coast of Scotland, Andy's figure appeared out of thin air - the North Sea is located between England and the European continent. Although it is called the North Sea, it is actually to the east of England.
Since there is no map, Andy cannot directly apparate to the isolated island where Azkaban is located. Moreover, there is also an 'anti-Apparition' magic there. Only the Ministry of Magic's special method can apparate to Azkaban.
Before long, there was another soft 'pop' sound next to Andy, and Snape's figure appeared out of thin air.
"professor!"
Andy said hello, "It's less than eight o'clock now, and we still have two hours to prepare."
Andy had a secret appointment with Snape yesterday, but the two only agreed on the time and place of the meeting - that is, the cubicle in the bathroom at Hogwarts, and here.
As for the specific action plan, Snape remained silent.
"What are you going to do?" Andy asked.
Snape looked gloomily at the sea.
The sea breeze blew Snape's black robes and messy hair, making him look like a big flying bat.
After all, a large part of temperament depends on appearance.
Snape's eyes glanced around and soon found a specially marked stone.
"Port key?"
Andy raised his eyebrows, "Shall we go directly to Azkaban?"
In the past few days, Andy has also made a homemade door key, which can take Andy directly back to the Forbidden Forest.
That is the last resort to save life!
"I discussed it with Dumbledore."
Snape said calmly: "Originally we planned to disguise ourselves as employees of the Ministry of Magic and sneak into the accompanying team."
Having said this, Snape turned to look at Andy.
Andy understood immediately.
Snape continued: "Fudge was quite well prepared. For this execution, he mobilized five Aurors and ten strikers to protect Azkaban, plus the dementors there..."
Hearing the word 'dementor', Andy quickly asked: "Professor, how are you using the Patronus Charm? Let me make it clear first, I can't use this trick."
Snape glanced at Andy and said calmly: "No Death Eater would use the Patronus Curse."
understood!
Andy understood, and then made an 'OK' gesture, indicating to Snape to continue.
"In addition to Aurors and strikers, Fudge also brought several officials from the Ministry of Magic and reporters from the Daily Prophet..."
Speaking of this, Snape looked sarcastic, "They are preparing to perform the Dementor's Kiss on Peter Pettigrew outside Azkaban Prison."
Andy thought about the comparison of combat power between the two sides.
Five Aurors, and ten Strikers...
In the British magic world, this combat power is already quite strong.
Aurors are a select group of outstanding wizards who are specially trained to investigate crimes related to the dark arts and are responsible for arresting and detaining dark wizards.
Auror training is very difficult. In addition to character and talent, those who intend to become Aurors must also undergo a series of rigorous tests.
In addition, Aurors also need to participate in extensive training in advanced magical combat, as well as training in criminal investigation.
And Strikers are even more powerful than Aurors.
Strikers are a team specially trained by the Department of Magical Law Enforcement and responsible for arresting 'dangerous criminal wizards'. Their functions are more inclined to armed combat.
Beaters enjoy a minimum monthly salary of seven hundred gold galleons and can also use a dedicated bed at St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Maladies and Maladies.
It can be seen from this monthly salary that strikers are much more powerful than Aurors - simply put, if Aurors can't catch people, strikers will catch them.
"You want to cause chaos?" Andy already understood what Snape meant.
Aurors and strikers are indeed the elite among wizards, but there are also so many officials from the Ministry of Magic and reporters from the Daily Prophet.
No one cares about reporters, but what about officials like Fudge?
Aurors always have to protect them, right?
"It's a bit risky indeed."
Snape explained: "But Peter Pettigrew is now imprisoned in the lowest level of Azkaban. Unless chaos is caused, it is impossible for us to successfully rescue people."
Creating chaos... that's definitely not okay!
After all, Snape wasn't really a Death Eater.
And if a few imprisoned Death Eaters are really released, the magical world may really be in chaos.
Andy thought for a moment.
Indeed, given the current situation, unless they rush into Azkaban to cause chaos, they can only rescue people by force.
"All right!"
Andy nodded, "Actually, I've wanted to do this for a long time."
After all, Andy's purpose in participating in this operation was to find a few masters to compete with.
Five Aurors, plus ten strikers... is a bit strong.
However, Andy has prepared the door key in advance, so escaping is not a problem.
Snape suddenly said: "Leave Peter Pettigrew to me. As soon as I touch him, I will activate the door key... Collins, I will wait up to five seconds."
Five seconds...
The situation of the battle changes rapidly, and no one knows what will happen in the next second. Not to mention rushing to Snape within five seconds, it is still unclear whether Snape can hold on for five seconds after approaching Peter Pettigrew.
"I have prepared the door key myself, so you don't have to wait for me."
Andy spread his hands and said, "If the situation is critical, I may run away first."
Snape glanced at Andy, and did not persuade him, but took out a bottle of polyjuice potion from his pocket, "Drink this."
Andy: "..."
Do you think I will drink this?
Who knows if you have peed in it?
Andy's fingers gently picked up the inside of his pocket, and a bottle of polyjuice potion flew out of his pocket, "Thank you... but I brought a bottle myself."
After that, Andy twisted the lid and drank it directly.
As his body was constantly pulled up, Andy's clothes began to change. When Andy became another person, Andy's clothes also became the "fashion" of the Death Eater version.
Andy's voice came from under the mask, "Professor, is this okay?"
Snape silently took back the Polyjuice Potion.
He swore that he didn't pee in it, at most the smell was a little disgusting.
"Let's go!"
Snape said, and then walked to the marked stone and signaled Andy with his eyes.
Andy walked over and pressed his fingers on the stone with Snape.
The door key was activated instantly!
