The Day of the Draw at Hogwarts

Vol 3 Chapter 100: Are you serious about taking a step back?

"Back off! I warn you!" Umbridge roared hoarsely, she couldn't remember how many times she had warned them, but the dementors had already lost their minds and swarmed up by her series of actions. , worked hard to leave scars on her patron saint.

Dementors also have emotions, and their current emotion is anger. Yes, angry.

The injustices of the past few days and the humiliation of today have completely angered them, shattered their reverence for the Ministry of Magic in their hearts, and allowed them to do very bold things.

The reason why we left our homeland, from the familiar Azkaban, and came to this ghostly place of Hogwarts, is to help your wizards capture Sirius. We are guarding the gate of the school and all the exits here day and night for you, but what did you do to us? The witches' discrimination against Dementors has never stopped!

What's even worse is that you have also interrupted our food supply. Without food, the clansmen are getting weaker and weaker, and you didn't even give an excuse! In this way, the food supply was interrupted silently—the food delivered last time was only one-twelfth of the theoretical amount, which was only a month and a half ago. It was agreed before that it will be delivered at least once a month, and there will be small batches of food to supplement it. It is you wizards who break the promise first!

You told us yourself that leaving Azkaban will reduce food, but you will promise to give enough food once a month, but realistic? It's been three months since we left Azkaban, and you've only sent one and a half supplies...

we are hungry...

Hunger makes us weak and weakens our strength day by day. We want to go out to find food by ourselves, but you still don't allow us - doesn't this make us starve to death while guarding the rice warehouse? There is so much delicious food around Hogwarts and Hogsmeade, but you forbid us to eat it. Why? !

Why? ! ! !

what! ?

Is it because it is not good for us to capture Sirius, so you withhold our food? But we don't want to, we want to catch Sirius and go back to Azkaban to rest, but we can't find him!

Can't find Sirius, then reduce rations, lack of nutrition, decline in strength, and can't find Sirius - Ministry of Magic, you simply starve us dementors to death! If it weren't for the face of the contract we made with your ancestors, we would have given up our job long ago.

And what the **** do you guys still have today to punish us for on behalf of the Ministry of Magic?

Is there any reason for this? Does this make sense? Bully us dementors to be honest, right? We must teach you wizards a lesson today!

The dementors howled angrily, and although no one could understand what they were saying, the change in the weather could be seen at a glance: the half of the sky outside Hogwarts was completely dark, as if it could be dark. Drop ink.

The Dementors eventually surrounded Umbridge's Patronus, tearing it apart angrily. Although the Dementors seemed to have been ignited after touching the body of the Patronus, and thick black smoke came out of them, but they didn't care. Tore off wisps of silver mist.

Finally, with a pop like a balloon popping, the vanilla white cat turned into a cloud of white mist and dissipated. Umbridge's face was as pale as paper, and there was nothing but fear in her heart.

She turned her head and looked at Professor McGonagall with pleading eyes, "Minerva, save me!"

Professor McGonagall was facing an enemy and summoned her patron saint—a silver tabby cat, but her patron saint just circled around her, with no intention of going up to support Umbridge. It's not that Professor McGonagall wants to use a knife to kill, but it's really incapable of doing it.

She also noticed the strangeness of the dementors, weighed her own strength, and found that her Patronus should be similar to the Umbridge Patronus. At most, she could last longer and get more injuries. Just a few dementors. Even with the patron saints of Tom and Hermione, the situation is extremely dangerous. If he makes a rash move, he will only involve himself and his three children. In the chaos, it is easy to make mistakes and cause unnecessary losses.

So she stayed on the defensive and didn't go up to rescue Umbridge. Professor McGonagall felt that after today, Umbridge should be able to realize the danger of Dementors.

Seeing Professor McGonagall's actions, Umbridge was furious, her forehead burst with blue veins, and she shouted hoarsely: "Minerva, I'm an official at the Ministry of Magic! You must prioritize my safety—"

Before she could finish, Professor McGonagall interrupted her: "Sorry, Dolores, I'm a professor at Hogwarts, and students are always the top priority here."

Umbridge's face twitched twice, and he gritted his teeth and roared, "Mi-le-wa--"

At this time, the last silver mist of the patron saint of Umbridge dissipated.

The physical Patronus summoned by normal wizards would not be so fragile. But Umbridge's Patronus is too bizarre, and fundamentally wrong. The patron saint manifested by such crooked emotions, Jin Yu is in the middle of it, naturally can't hold on for too long, and is fragile and unbelievable.

The Dementors used it towards Umbridge like a black tide, and as the black tide surged, the ground was covered with thin ice, and the sky was dark without a trace of light.

Umbridge was completely flustered, and fear filled her heart, so that she could no longer find a trace of happiness.

"Call God-Guardian!" She waved her wand with trembling hands, but the tip of the wand could only see strands of silver mist, which could not form a fully formed Patronus. Later, she couldn't even summon the mist. .

With a snap, her wand fell to the ground, and she herself was slumped in the dirt, muttering: "I'm the Senior Deputy Minister of Magic...I represent the Ministry...you filthy dark creatures can't... …cannot--"

She was emotionally devastated, and a tear fell from the corner of her eye.

Dementors surrounded her, surrounded her, and madly absorbed all the positive emotions in her...

"Professor, do you want to save Ms. Umbridge?" Percy asked hesitantly, standing behind Professor McGonagall, "She is the representative of the Ministry of Magic after all..."

"Shut up!" Professor McGonagall squeezed out two words between her teeth. Of course she knew Umbridge's identity, and she also understood that a special envoy from the Ministry of Magic was attacked by Dementors outside the Hogwarts campus. The consequences caused, but she couldn't help it. The three children behind her made her have to be cautious.

Percy closed his mouth in embarrassment, realizing that what he seemed to say was out of place.

At this time, some of the wandering dementors saw that Umbridge was surrounded by water, so they floated towards Professor McGonagall, but they were all beaten away by the vigorous tabby cat she summoned. Professor McGonagall's Patronus is not a fanciful like Umbridge, but a solid Patronus summoned by positive emotions.

Hit the Dementors and immediately remind them of the horrors of wizards. They staggered back, as far as possible from the terrifying woman and her cat.

Tom and Hermione saw that Professor McGonagall had clashed with the Dementors, and they each summoned their own Patronus. Four people summoned three patron saints, and only Percy stood at the end of the team embarrassingly.

In this case, whoever cannot summon the Patronus will be embarrassed. Percy tried shaking his wand, but only came up with a few clumps of spray. Percy silently retracted the wand into his trouser pocket, swearing in his heart that he would practice the Patronus Charm several more times when he returned to the castle.

When Hermione's three-headed dog and the three-headed dog that Tom imitated appeared on the ground, something magical happened. The dementors stopped and looked over. When their eyes fell on the Patronus in front of Tom and Hermione, they made an unexpected action: all the dementors took a step back.

McGonagall, Percy: ?

The two patron saints were like a basin of cold water, pouring it on the dementors' heads, making them sober a lot. When the anger subsided, their sanity began to recover, and many dementors recalled the scene of being killed by the three-headed dog not long ago.

Professor McGonagall was relieved to see that Tom and Hermione's deterrent effect was good, and now she was worried about how to end it. The current situation is that the dementors attacked the officials of the Ministry of Magic, and then blocked the gate of Hogwarts school, and they were at a standoff with their own side. Professor McGonagall doesn't know what will happen next. But one thing is clear: No matter how you handle it, it's going to be extremely tricky.

Punishing dementors will exacerbate their dissatisfaction, while indulging them will diminish the dementors' reverence for wizards—more importantly, neither of these two approaches resolves the core contradiction. The only proper response is to punish them and send them back to Azkaban.

There is only one person in the entire British wizarding world who has the power to do this, but that person doesn't have the guts. Fudge was terrible after Sirius escaped, and the only thing he could do was plant a lot of Dementors around Hogwarts to show that he really did something. As the saying goes, do a lot of useless work to cover up the status quo that you haven't done anything.

Everyone knows that it's useless to deploy dementors around Hogwarts right now - Sirius can bypass the dementors and sneak into Hogwarts once, and he can do it a second time and a third time. Continuing to station Dementors here is just a waste of resources.

But Fudge is playing dead, procrastinating and responding passively, and everyone can't do anything about him! A Minister of Magic chooses to rot, and the harm done is enormous.

Professor McGonagall can be said to be in a dilemma now. At this time, because the dementor's pressure is slightly less, Umbridge has recovered, and her vitality is as tenacious as a cockroach.

She raised her hand tremblingly and shouted to Professor McGonagall, "Minerva, save me..."

Professor McGonagall sighed, she couldn't watch the Dementors kill Umbridge here. She believed that the Dementors had taught Umbridge enough lessons, so she drove her Patronus towards the Dementors. Tom and Hermione also began to fuse their Patronus.

This time, like poking a hornet's nest, the dementors exploded. They moved and flew in all directions, surrounded by the whistling wind. It looked earth-shattering, but when facing Professor McGonagall's patron saint, they were still thrown away again and again, like leaves in the autumn wind.

At this time, the Patronus of Tom and Hermione also merged and rushed towards the dementors. The dementors avoided one after another, unwilling to be contaminated by the flames on the three-headed dog. With this rush, the dark clouds formed by the dementors were successfully broken, and the black clouds in the sky were quickly dissipating, and even the cold air was also eliminated a lot.

At this time, a few patron saints and a few white lights came running from the direction of Hogsmeade, which became the last straw to overwhelm the Dementors. It was the same Hitters and Aurors that Umbridge had left in Hogsmeade to cast these Patronus spells. They saw the change in the sky and rushed over quickly.

After seeing that the dementors were rioting together, they also summoned their patron saints one after another, intending to teach many dementors a lesson and suppress them.

They succeeded.

In front of the Patronus Charm released by the wizards together, the Dementor looked helpless. If they can still maintain their previous momentum, the effect of these patron saints will definitely not be so good, but the dementors at this time have lost that spirit, and naturally they are not the opponents of wizards.

The Patronus rushed into the Dementors and completely defeated their scattered formations. The next battle was a one-sided pursuit of the dead. The dementors fled in all directions, and the Patronus chased after them, leaving them one after another with scars, making them whimper into the darkness and disappear.

The rescued Umbridge gradually recovered, and the reinforcements from the Ministry of Magic became her support, so she recovered her breath and stared at Professor McGonagall, her back molars gritted. sound.

"Minerva, do you think you can't be saved!" Professor McGonagall saw her embarrassed side completely~www.wuxiamtl.com~ Umbridge just felt extremely shameless, and she was full of resentment now. It was vented at Professor McGonagall.

"They're back!" Tom exclaimed, pointing behind Umbridge.

"Ah!" Umbridge crouched down with his head folded, and let out a miserable scream, "Save me! I was wrong! I'm sorry—"

But soon she realized something was wrong: there was absolutely no suffocating atmosphere around when the dementors arrived. When she looked up, she saw Professor McGonagall looking at her with a half-smile.

She immediately understood that she had been tricked, and Umbridge's toad-like face turned livid in an instant. She lost her face and couldn't say a word of anger now, she could only stand aside with arms folded and wait for the arrival of her subordinates.
