The Mightiest Badger at Hogwarts

Moody's expression suddenly became serious.

His intact eye stared directly at Dumbledore and said:

"Dumbledore, are you really sure that there is a Horcrux hidden in the Department of Mysteries?"

Hearing this, Dumbledore took a deep breath and said:

"What should I tell you, Alastor. The source of this news is basically reliable, and the Death Eaters' recent activities have indeed focused on the Ministry of Magic and the Department of Mysteries, so this is a high probability It’s also true.”

"High probability? Basically reliable?" Moody frowned and repeated a few of Dumbledore's words. "Dumbledore, I find that you are talking more and more like the people I met during the war. Auror commanders. Whenever we ask them about their strategic intentions and plans, their words are full of such uncertain words.

Yes, I understand that intelligence is not 100% certain, and war sometimes requires a gamble.

But this does not mean that the lives of us front-line personnel will be used by you to try and make mistakes!

So I ask you again now, are you sure there is a Horcrux hidden in the Department of Mysteries? "

Dumbledore remained silent after hearing this, but looked at Moody with a complicated look.

But at this moment, Sirius suddenly opened the door and walked in.

He frowned and glared at Moody first, and then said excitedly to Dumbledore:

"Let's do it, Dumbledore, let's infiltrate the Department of Mysteries! I'm not a coward like Moody, and I'm sure Remus isn't either! We are willing to try this!"

Moody looked at Sirius with contempt.

He has seen too many recruits like this.

Even he himself was so passionate and had no hesitation back then.

But what did this get in exchange?

Betrayal and death!

You must know that during the Second Wizarding War, the death rate of recruits in the first war once reached an astonishing 80%!

In his opinion, people like Sirius Black were the first to die.

He sneered and looked at Dumbledore again, ready to see how Dumbledore would treat Sirius.

If Dumbledore, like the commanders before him, could only use high-sounding words to encourage fools like Sirius, then he would need to reconsider whether to continue to follow Dumbledore.

After all, although he is willing to sacrifice for his ideals and social stability, in the final analysis, he is still a person who is very afraid of death.

Otherwise, he wouldn't be rumored to be suffering from persecution delusions.

Under Moody's gaze, Dumbledore sighed slowly.

He did not answer Sirius's question, but said to Moody very seriously:

"Alastor, I'm sorry, I'm not 100% sure that the Horcrux is in the Department of Mysteries. But I have no intention of asking you to risk your life to try and make mistakes. In fact, I have no plans to bring it with you in the short term. Plans for people to enter the Department of Mysteries.”

"why!?"

Before Moody could speak, Sirius suddenly roared, "This is a God-given opportunity! We have been tracking the Death Eaters for so long, and now we have a chance, but you don't let us take action? Do you know ? Ever since Voldemort took Azkaban, the power in his hands has expanded more and more! If we continue to sit back and wait for death, then we..."

Sirius could no longer speak.

He stood there biting his fingers and making strange whimpering sounds from his mouth.

This made Dumbledore and Moody both lower their heads.

Sirius' mood was indeed unstable during this period.

The large-scale prison break discovered in Azkaban gave him great stimulation, making him go crazy from time to time.

But Dumbledore and Moody completely understand this.

Anyone who has been locked up in Azkaban for more than ten years will suffer from this situation.

So after Sirius's mood gradually stabilized, Dumbledore lowered his tone and said:

"Sirius, I know you are very anxious, but this operation involves the Department of Mysteries. We must consider it in the long term."

"What's there to discuss?" Sirius retorted, "Don't you think I don't know? The entire Ministry of Magic is in chaos now! I don't think it will be difficult to sneak in!"

Moody then shook his head and said:

"No, the Department of Mysteries is different. The water there is deeper than you think, and it's far from that simple. It's not just a research institute, it's a special prison. The things that have been imprisoned in it even have the power to destroy The power of the world!”

Sirius looked surprised when he heard this, obviously not believing it.

He turned to look at Dumbledore, hoping to get a definite answer from Dumbledore.

However, at this time, Dumbledore turned his head and looked out the window.

His eyes were distant and deep, and they were trembling slightly, as if Moody's words had brought back some terrible memories.

……

Hogwarts.

Room on request.

Link, Hermione and others were looking anxiously at Madam Pomfrey who was treating Harry on the bed in front of her.

Ron was so anxious that he put his hands into his mouth.

To be honest, he really wanted to go up and ask about Harry.

However, in the past ten minutes, he had asked this question more than twenty times, which caused Madam Pomfrey to get angry at him directly.

It was precisely because of this that he had no choice but to wait.

After another full 15 minutes passed, Madam Pomfrey finally took off her gloves, stood up and let out a long sigh.

"Madam Pomfrey! How is Harry?"

After all, Ron couldn't hold it back and immediately shouted out along with Hermione.

Fortunately, this time he shouted with Hermione, so Madam Pomfrey just glared at him and did not accuse him.

"It's still the same. With the current medical level, I can only confirm that this should be a trauma to the soul, but there is no way to cure it." Madam Pomfrey sighed, then looked at Link and said, "By the way, how did you find this place?" A good place to plant? The medical equipment and environment here are comparable to the professional operating room of St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Maladies and Maladies. The only problem is that the equipment is relatively old, and some new medical equipment are not available here."

Link raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and soon understood.

Presumably Madam Pomfrey never discovered the Room of Requirement when she was a student at Hogwarts.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have been so surprised by the shape of the treatment room in the Room of Requirement.

"This is the Room of Requirement. You should have heard of it. It can provide rooms with different uses according to the user's wishes." Link explained with a smile, "But because the spells and instruments used to build this place are from Hogwart It was built when CIT was founded, so although the Big Four have used their most advanced technology at that time, it seems that the equipment is still quite backward.

But this is not a big problem.

In the future, I will selectively purchase some new medical equipment as a supplement.

Next time, if you encounter students who are too late to be sent to St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Injuries for treatment, just push them here for treatment. "

"If it can be like this, that would be the best."

Madam Pomfrey smiled and nodded.

She was truly happy for Link.

The pitiful little boy who was bullied by his classmates every day has now grown into a towering tree.

The most commendable thing is that this big tree is not a robber who blindly robs the earth of nutrients, but is willing to use its huge canopy to provide shade for people on the ground, or to give back to the earth with its fallen leaves.

This is a very noble quality!

"Hey! I said, can you pay attention to the situation? Harry is still fainting!"

Hermione said with some dissatisfaction.

She has endured it for a long time.

I originally thought that Link and Madam Pomfrey would soon change the topic to Harry, but unexpectedly, the two of them went further and further on how to improve the medical equipment in the Room of Requirement.

After hearing this, Madam Pomfrey shook her head and said:

"There's nothing to worry about. You all should know very well that he has an old problem. I have already given him medicine. According to the effect of the medicine and past experience, he should be fine soon..."

Before Madam Pomfrey could finish her words, a faint moan came from Harry on the hospital bed.

The anger in Hermione's eyes that had been glaring at Madam Pomfrey suddenly disappeared, replaced by disbelief.

She and Ron rushed to Harry's bedside and asked Harry questions with concern.

Ron even reached out and touched Harry's face and body, as if he was afraid that Harry had suffered any trauma and deliberately kept it secret.

After this operation, the mask of pain on Harry's face actually became tighter and tighter.

Seeing this, Link shook his head in amusement, stepped forward and pulled Hermione and Ron apart, then took out a bottle of potion and poured it into Harry.

This potion was specially developed for him by Snape. In the first few years, he had been relying on this potion to suppress the strange power in his blood.

But at the same time, this potion actually has a part of the effect of soothing the soul, so using it on Harry can be regarded as the right medicine.

After drinking a whole tube of potion, the pained expression on Harry's face immediately relaxed.

At this time, Arkham, who had recovered from his semi-hibernation state, also poked his head out of Link's sleeves, spitting snake messages at Harry to express his concern.

To be honest, Harry is the only Parselmouth in the entire Hogwarts who can communicate with him. Although Arkham itself doesn't like him very much, he will still be a little disappointed if Harry is really gone.

Parseltongue is actually a rather rough and crude language.

It does not have specific fixed words and pronunciations, but conveys information entirely through emotions, sounds and pheromones.

Therefore, Harry naturally sensed Arkham's concern for him.

He smiled and stretched out his hand to touch Arkham, but Arkham ducked away.

He wasn't upset when he saw this, he just said in Parseltongue:

"Hiss!~" (Thank you, I'm fine, I won't die.)

Hearing this, Arkham nodded with a very humane look on his face and slipped back into Link's sleeve.

As Arkham disappeared, the expression on Harry's face gradually became serious.

He turned to look at Link who was smiling, took a deep breath and said:

"Link, I dreamed of Voldemort again!"

As soon as these words came out, both Hermione and Ron exclaimed.

But Link seemed to have already guessed it and just nodded calmly, gesturing for Harry to continue.

Harry's throat trembled twice, and he said tremblingly:

"I had a long, long dream.

In my dream I saw the Department of Mysteries again!

But unlike before, this time those guys...those Death Eaters, they have entered the Department of Mysteries!

To be precise, I entered a room full of crystal balls!

I also saw Dumbledore, Sirius, Mr. Weasley there...

They were rummaging around for something, while Voldemort and his henchmen were secretly watching them with malicious eyes!

In the dream, I yelled at the top of my lungs, trying to remind Dumbledore to run!

It's just that it's too late!

Voldemort and his Death Eaters launched a sneak attack on Dumbledore!

Dumbledore also started to fight back.

It’s just that there are too many Death Eaters!Dumbledore and Sirius are simply unstoppable!

Finally...finally Sirius fell!Mr. Weasley also..."

Harry's expression was painful.

Also suffering was Ron.

He rushed up almost immediately, shaking Harry's body anxiously and asking about his father's situation.

But Harry couldn't say anything.

He just pulled hard on his hair, and his whole face began to deform and twist.

Link had no choice but to pour him another tube of special sedative, but Harry grabbed Link's arm and begged:

"Link, I know there are some holes in my brain that could allow Voldemort to send some wrong information.

But this time, this time is completely different from those previous dreams!

It's so real!

I can guarantee it must be true!

We must take action. Link, Dumbledore and the others are in danger! "

As soon as these words came out, the hesitant Ron seemed to react.

He rushed over and grabbed Link's thigh, as if grasping the last straw, and said:

"Link, please! Help them!"

Link stretched out his hand and gently touched Ron's body. Ron's arms tightly grasping his arms immediately fell down weakly.

But that didn't stop Ron from looking at him with pitiful eyes like a puppy.

Later, even Hermione came to plead for mercy.

This left Link speechless.

He took a deep breath and said:

"Please calm down, I didn't say I wouldn't help!

But now we can't rule out the possibility that the enemy deliberately set a trap for us.

So now, you should first find a way to contact Mr. Weasley and Sirius Black and inquire about their situation.

On my side, I will immediately hold a committee meeting and ask Percy about the situation in the Ministry of Magic. How about it? "

Hearing this, Ron and Harry looked at me and I looked at you, and finally calmed down.

Seeing the three of them hurriedly leaving the Room of Requirement under the leadership of Madam Pomfrey, Link's eyes gradually became serious.
