Chapter 487: ?The disobedient Dumbledore

Hello, respected master. "
The respectful voice of Queen Lilith sounded in Mike's mind.
As a queen ant who has been living deep underground for many years, Lilith doesn't have so much scheming. This is the true expression of her heart.
When signing with Mike at the beginning, Lilith thought that a new round of miserable life was about to come. After all, humans were such greedy and cruel creatures in her mind.
But what happened later surprised her.
Although the employees of the Los Santos group sent by Mike are essentially the same as the original Avery family, they are desperately making the ants work.
However, the Luo Shengdu Group is much more generous than the Avery family. They have never deprived the ants of their rations, nor will they abuse or kill those ants at will!
Of course, the employees of Los Santos Group did not give too much preferential treatment to those ants, but this was enough.
People who have never been treated with gentleness are always easily satisfied. This is the case with the queen ant now.
"Lilith, I need your help."
"As you wish, my master, all my soldiers have been sent to the target area."
Lilith's tone was filled with joy. She was happy to be able to help Mike, but she didn't care much about her people being driven by Mike as cannon fodder.
This is not to say that she does not love her children, on the contrary, she loves her children to the bone, but these children are too easy to come, and it is a legitimate reason to fight for Mike, the master who treats her kindly. That's why she was so indifferent.
This kind of thinking is incomprehensible to humans, but it is a reasonable thing among ants.
After bidding farewell to the queen ant Lilith, Mike finally came to the battlefield carefully selected by Benjamin and others, a U-shaped closed valley.
While Mike was visiting the Avery Mystery, Franklin, who remained in Hogwarts, had also completed his task, and moved the vanishing cabinet in the responsive room to the innermost part of the valley.
When Mike arrived, fortifications were being built on the cliffs on both sides of the valley. It was a building similar to a fort, with a low wall made of rocks on the periphery. When the battle begins, Mike's wizards will attack the Death Eaters below under the protection of these fortifications.
The ants will flood in through the gap in the front of the canyon and stand with the Death Eaters.
As for whether the spells cast by the wizards above the canyon would accidentally injure the ant allies, this is not within Mike's consideration. In his opinion, these ants are used as cannon fodder to attract firepower.
To be honest, although these fortifications constructed in a hurry with magic are already very strong at the level of Muggles, they are still not enough for the wizards.
But in the current ambush attack, these fortifications are extremely useful. Under their cover, wizards on the cliff can launch attacks unscrupulously. The bottom-up attacks of Death Eaters threaten them. Minimal.
But when Mike's side was in full swing, there was a problem with the troops sent by the Muggle Prime Minister.
The first is the 70-person ground force. Mike’s original intention was to place 50 of these people on the cliffs on both sides of the ambush, using the sniper’s precision shooting capabilities and the barrage of artillery and machine gunners. The coverage capability serves as fire support for the wizarding combat troops.
But Mike's arrangement encountered unexpected difficulties when it was actually implemented.
Although Franklin had explained to them as much as possible when receiving the ground forces that the world he was about to arrive was a fantasy world composed of monsters and wizards, but when those ground forces were truly teleported into the Avery Secret Realm, they encountered those huge At the time of the ants, there was an overreaction.
The soldiers screamed and picked up their guns and attacked the ant colony that was carrying mushrooms. Many of the young soldiers even regarded the worker ants as the Zerg in a certain hegemony game, and yelled at some microphones. If you don’t understand, rush forward!
I have to say that the people sent by the Muggle Prime Minister are all real combat elites. In the battle with the ants, they showed excellent combat literacy and killed dozens of ants in an instant.
But those are all friendly forces!
Mike is speechless to these soldiers!
Fortunately, these soldiers are the products of rigorous training and frequent brainwashing. When Franklin roared as a temporary commander and issued an order to stop firing, they stopped.
But they were still full of vigilance about everything around them. The strange sights that appeared in front of them completely shattered their three views. Many of them even thought they were sent to fight on an alien planet.
Obviously, it is basically impossible for soldiers in this state to cooperate with wizards to fight together. In desperation, Mike can only separate them into a team and guard a section of the cliff alone.
But these ground forces are easy to handle, and the air forces on the other side are in trouble.
You know, the task Mike wants to give them is to bomb Malfoy Manor and give air support to the friendly forces who counterattacked into Malfoy Manor.
But judging from the situation displayed by the ground forces, those air forces that are more spoiled by comparison will obviously have worse psychological acceptance, and they are afraid that they will conduct indiscriminate attacks.
This makes Mike unacceptable. It is important to know that each of the battle wizards of the Los Santos Group is carefully cultivated with huge resources. It is better to say that they die on the battlefield, and let them die under the indiscriminate attack of the friendly forces. But I don't want to.
In desperation, the day before Christmas, Mike could only ask for Professor Flitwick.
In the villa in Godric Valley, Professor Flitwick stared at Mike strangely after listening to the story that Mike had fabricated and the description of the current predicament.
This made Mike feel a little uncomfortable, thinking that his lie was discovered by Professor Flitwick.
But just when Mike couldn't help but want to confess to Professor Flivy, he sighed and said in annoyance:
"Mike, have you never learned about the Hogwarts recruiting process?"
"Uh, it is true." Mike said confusedly, "but... does this have anything to do with the problem I am facing now?"
After hearing the words, Professor Flivy didn't fight, and reached out his hand and patted Mike's forehead.
"Because you don't come to ask me such a stupid question if you know something strange about these things!"
Mike rubbed his head and looked at Professor Flitwick innocently. He still didn't want to understand what the connection was.
This made Professor Flitwick angrily. He raised his hand and was ready to give Mike again, but when Mike turned his head to dodge, he saw Professor Flitwick as if he suddenly remembered something. His face was full of anger. It became distressed, and then the raised palm lightly fell on Mike's head and rubbed gently.
"Sorry, Mike."
Although he didn't understand why Professor Flitwick had to apologize, Mike nodded.
After that, Professor Flitwick's attitude changed drastically. He sighed and said slowly:
"Mike, the process of enrolling students at Hogwarts is like this. Every spring, a magic book in the Hogwarts principal's office will automatically detect all children who meet the Hogwarts admission criteria, and then list The list will be prepared and mailed by the principal.
Since prospective freshmen in Muggle families do not have the ability to purchase teaching materials, Hogwarts will send professors to the homes of those Muggle students to explain the students and their parents. This is a necessary behavior. After all, parents always love their children. The professors at Hogwarts can't take the children away from them directly. It's too cruel to do so. "
Professor Flivy paused suddenly when he said this, and this pause also made Mike understand why Professor Flivy apologized before.
You know Mike is an orphan, so when Dumbledore came to him in person, he didn't explain the process to his parents at all!
"Although Hogwarts’ approach is very user-friendly, it is almost the best choice for those students to enter Hogwarts. But in the actual work process, professors often encounter the same Problem-Some Muggles always like to immerse themselves in their own world and are unwilling to accept reality.
In the face of these people, simple persuasion is no longer useful, so when prospective freshmen have agreed to enroll but their parents disagree, the professors who are dispatched will take some measures..."
"you mean……"
"Yes, you are a clever kid, so you should be able to guess it." Flivy smiled and nodded. "It's a little magic spell improved from the advanced chanting spell, called'Muggle transformation Curse, through this little curse, the caster can make Muggles accept the existence of the wizarding world in a very short period of time, so that they can better negotiate with each other."
With that said, Professor Flivy took out his wand and personally demonstrated the release of the Muggle Transformation Charm for Mike.
It has to be said that this is indeed a very simple little spell. It only took Mike a whole night to master it and apply it to the Muggle soldiers.
According to the feedback, the effect of this little curse is indeed very good. Now the attitude of the Muggle soldiers has been reversed 180 degrees from when they first arrived, and they are full of curiosity and enjoy themselves. Is exploring this new world.
But their behavior actually didn't make much sense, because Mike had already decided to erase the memories of all their members after the battle for confidentiality and security considerations.
It's just that they obviously didn't know about it, so the strange scene appeared. Those Muggle soldiers dared to pester the wizards and ask questions all day long, which made the wizards tireless!
That is to say, the group of wizards under Mike were all Muggle-born. If they were changed to pure-blood wizards, these Muggle soldiers would have died many times.
At the time when there was chaos in Avery's secret territory, Christmas finally arrived.
...
Inside Hogwarts Castle, Snape, who was covered in black robes, swept across the corridor with a gloomy face and quickly entered Dumbledore's office.
The sound of the office door closing awakened Dumbledore who was sleeping on the desk and the portraits of principals on the wall.
The latter murmured a little dissatisfiedly when they saw Snape, and then fell asleep again.
But Dumbledore looked at Snape with a curious look, and then said in surprise:
"Severus, you came to spend Christmas with me, which is really strange!"
Snape curled his lips across the desk.
He basically didn’t attend Hogwarts Christmas dinners in previous years. Compared to staying at Hogwarts to celebrate with a group of silly students, Snape preferred to go to the cemetery to offer Lily a bunch of flowers, and then Drinking a bottle of star wine in front of Lily's tombstone alone, so that I can remember the good time when I was with Lily through my drunkenness.
But this year is different, and a sudden news broke his plan to sweep the grave.
"Dumbledore, there is no time to joke! The Death Eaters are going to attack Hogwarts tonight!"
As soon as he said this, most of the magical portraits on the wall immediately awoke, staring at Snape below with incredulous eyes.
And the smile on Dumbledore's face disappeared, and he frowned:
"Can you be sure of the authenticity of this news?"
"This is what Narcissa told me personally. Her son Draco found a vanishing cabinet in the responsive room, and the other subcabinet that matched the vanishing cabinet is now in that person's hands. He died of eating tonight. The disciples would launch a raid on Hogwarts through the Vanishing Cabinet! The reason why Narcissa would tell me these things was entirely because Draco was also forced to join in, and she wanted me to protect her son! "
Dumbledore's face became extremely dark, he glanced at the afterglow of the evening sun outside the window and murmured:
"Since you didn't bring the vanishing cabinet, can you explain that the vanishing cabinet in Hogwarts is missing now?"
"You guessed it right," Snape said, "I've been to the responsive room before coming here again, and the Vanishing Cabinet is no longer there."
"It seems that today is the time for my old bone to dedicate myself to Hogwarts."
Dumbledore looked calm, and said while removing the straps on his arms.
But Dumbledore’s words shocked Snape. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com hurriedly said:
"Dumbledore! You can't die here! But you..."
"Nothing. I am the principal of Hogwarts. It is my responsibility to protect students. From the first day I sat in this seat, I was ready to sacrifice for this school." Dumbledore looked at the many portraits of former principals hanging on the wall and said, "What do you think."
The portraits all nodded in relief at Dumbledore, but this made Snape very angry. He glared at the portraits and just wanted to continue to persuade Dumbledore to escape, but the latter was the first Step by step:
"Snape, do what you should do. Draco is not inherently bad. Protect him. You have promised Narcissa, have you?"
After that, Dumbledore gave Snape a kind smile, while the latter stood there blankly, his face gloomy.
After a while, Snape gave a cold snort and flung his sleeves away!
