Chapter 715 Emergency Measures
"I know it's hard, Connelly, but we've got to do it!" said Dumbledore.
"No, no, I won't do that!" Fudge shook his head vigorously, "The Dark Lord never came back, this is all a lie fabricated by you, and you joined forces to deceive me. Vampires and giants, these low blood... ..."
"Connelly, you are too obsessed with your official position, which makes you lose your due judgment." Dumbledore said, his voice gradually increased, and people could feel the halo of power surrounding him, His eyes glowed again.
"You place too much value on the so-called pure wizard blood, you have always been like this! You don't realize that it is not important to a person's origin, what matters is what kind of person he grows into! Your dementor just wiped out a very The last member of an ancient wizarding family, look at the life path that man has chosen! I tell you now, just follow my advice and take some steps, and the Ministry of Magic and the entire wizarding world will always remember you, and will Think of you as the bravest and greatest Minister of Magic who ever lived. If you don't act, history will remember that you stood by and gave Voldemort a second chance to destroy the world we worked so hard to rebuild !"
"Ridiculous!" Fudge whispered, looking at Dumbledore in panic, stepping back, "Crazy..."
"If you are so obsessed with your own way, Connelly!" said Dumbledore, "we will have to go our separate ways, and you will do as you see fit, and Hogwarts and I will do as I will."
There was nothing threatening in Dumbledore's voice, it sounded like a statement.
But Fudge was furious, as if Dumbledore was approaching him with a wand raised.
"Yes, yes, Dumbledore!" he cried, threateningly waving a finger, "I finally understand what you mean, you and your Hogwarts... I I have always given you full freedom, I have always respected you, I may not agree with some of your decisions, but I always keep silent. Not many people will allow you to hire werewolves, keep Hagrid, or not consult the Ministry of Magic It's up to you to decide what to teach your students. However, if you're going to fight me..."
"The only thing I want to turn against is Voldemort!" said Dumbledore. "If you turn against him, Connelly, then we're still on the same side."
Fudge didn't seem to be able to figure out how to answer, he couldn't stand on his little feet, he swayed back and forth for a moment, twirling his bowler hat with both hands, completely lost, as if expecting Dumbledore to change his mind.
Finally, he spoke, with a hint of pleading in his voice, "He won't come back, Dumbledore, he can't!"
Before Dumbledore could speak, Snape, who had been standing beside Ivan, strode forward.
As he walked, he lifted the left sleeve of his robe.
He held out his arm to show Fudge, who recoiled in horror.
"See?" said Snape hoarsely. "See, the Dark Mark. It's not as visible as it was an hour ago, when it was charred black, but you can still see it. Each Death Eater has Voldemort's brand on them. This is a way for Death Eaters to identify each other and is Voldemort's signal to call them back to him. When he summons Death Eaters, we must immediately Apparate, Been around him. Over the year, the mark has become more and more obvious. Karkaroff's is the same, why do you say Karkaroff ran away after Barty Crouch Jr. was caught? We both felt The mark is burning and we all know he's back. Karkaroff fears Voldemort will retaliate against him, and he's betrayed many of his fellow Death Eaters, and surely no one will welcome him back among them."
Fudge backed away from Snape, shaking his head constantly, as if he didn't hear what Snape said at all.
His eyes widened, obviously horrified by the ugly mark on Snape's arm!
Then, looking up at Dumbledore, he whispered, "I don't know what tricks you and your men are playing, Dumbledore, but I've heard enough. I don't want to say anything more until you calm down and figure it out. Contact me after what happened, Dumbledore! When the time comes, I need to discuss with you the way this school is run. Now, I must go back to the Ministry of Magic."
He pushed Snape in front of him, passed Dumbledore, and strode out of the room, with the Aurors hastily following.
The door was closed heavily, and in silence, Dumbledore turned to look at the others.
"Fudge's attitude was as I expected, but it definitely made things worse and changed the whole situation!" said Dumbledore. "There is some work to be done right away, Sirius, and I want you to return immediately Ministry of Magic to..."
"I just got fired, I've had enough of that job!" grumbled Sirius.
"You send a letter to Arthur and help him. We must inform all those who can understand the situation under our persuasion. Arthur can contact those who are not as short-sighted as Connelly in the Ministry of Magic. people." Dumbledore said, "When you go back to the Auror office to pack your things, you can find an opportunity to talk to the other Aurors."
"Okay, but I wish you could give me something a little more exciting to do!" said Sirius.
"This matter is very important. After helping Arthur contact all the people in the Ministry of Magic who are willing to help us, you can go to inform Remus Lupine, Arabella Figg, Mundungus Fry Qi, there are a few old seniors..." Dumbledore paused and continued, "After doing these things, you can go back to Hogwarts. I hope you can help Ivan and Contact those vampires and try to convince them. Although I don't have much hope for this, at least we need to know what secret Voldemort has obtained, about the powerful power he is trying to master!"
Ivan nodded, he also wanted to know about this matter, what secrets the Slytherin family kept for generations.
Also, what was the big problem Keresis had been hoping Voldemort would help them solve? !
"Professor, I don't have a way to contact those vampires?" Ivan suddenly thought, he didn't know where Keresis was.
Vampires have many enemies, if their whereabouts could be found so easily, they would be finished long ago!
