The Mightiest Badger at Hogwarts

"Mr. Washington, may I have the honor of dancing with you?"

As the light in the auditorium suddenly dimmed and the sound of dance music gradually started to sound, a woman with a flowery face suddenly came to Link and spoke slowly.

This caused an inexplicable flash of light on Link's face:

"My wife is right here, and you actually dare to come over and invite me to dance?"

"So what?" The woman looked even more confused than Link. "This shouldn't be a problem for people like us."

As the woman spoke, she pointed to the side, "Look, that's my husband."

Link looked in the direction she pointed and saw that the area in the center of the auditorium where the student tables were originally placed had all the obstacles removed and had turned into a dance floor.

Several pairs of middle-aged men and women are among them, dancing to the melodious dance music.

To be honest, Link didn't recognize who was the husband of the woman in front of him.

But this does not prevent Link from understanding the other party's meaning at all - in the aristocratic circle, everyone has always played their own way.

Taking a deep breath, Link shook his head and said:

"I love my wife very much."

As she spoke, Emily came up and took Link's arm, looking at the woman in front of her with an indifferent expression.

"Really? That would be such a pity."

The woman spoke and left a little lonely.

Before leaving, he looked at Emily with a rather complicated look.

There was confusion and even envy in his eyes.

Retreating with the woman were many other women surrounding Link.

Although these women are not the same group as the woman.

But they all understand one thing.

It would be impossible to ask Link to dance tonight.

Seeing this, Emily nodded with satisfaction and said to Link:

"How about we play a song?"

"No," Link said calmly, "We'd better go back quickly."

"Are you in such a hurry?"

"I have a bad feeling, so let's do it as soon as possible."

As he spoke, Link turned to Furong and said:

"You and Emily go back to the guest room as soon as possible. We have some other things to deal with while we stay here. In addition, Gabrielle will also go with us."

Link spoke categorically, and Fleur understood what Link wanted to do.

Immediately, my heart tightened and I wanted to pull Gabrielle out of the auditorium.

Unexpectedly, Gabrielle's backhand actually pulled her back.

Gabrielle looked at Link with a wary expression and said:

"You invited me to your guest room? What kind of crooked idea did you have? Let me warn you, Beauxbatons does not allow too close relationships between guests and students!"

This is telling the truth.

Even at the current dance, guests and students were not allowed to dance together.

This is Beauxbatons' way of protecting low-level students. Otherwise, with Beauxbatons' current operating model, a lot of disgusting things would definitely happen.

But rules are destined to be impossible to be 100% implemented from the moment they were born.

There are bound to be people who are willing to take risks and break the rules.

Just like Laura before.

It was obvious what they had planned.

After all, the benefits of doing so are simply too great.

But Link really doesn’t mean this!

"call--"

Link took a long breath and said, "You misunderstood. I just want to give you sisters a chance to get in touch. I will not return to the guest room in a short time. In other words, there are only three of you girls there." . If you are still not at ease, you can not go to the guest room and go to the open space outside to talk."

"So you are trying to lure us away?"

Gabrielle's vigilance remained unabated, and then she looked at Link with a scoundrel look and said, "After you lure us away, you can do some shameful things. For example, dance with the group of women just now, and do some disgusting things by the way." thing!"

Link felt like the veins on his forehead were bulging.

This is the first time he has encountered such a difficult person since he took power.

Fleur, who was standing next to Gabrielle, was also anxious.

She knew exactly what Link and others were going to do.

He immediately wanted to persuade Gabrielle again.

But before he could speak, he heard Gabriel sneer and say:

"But this has nothing to do with me. I don't care what tricks you want to play, as long as they don't play on us!"

After saying that, she pulled Furong and left the auditorium.

Judging from the direction, we should be heading to the guest room.

This made Link sigh in relief and said:

"Emily, follow up, and take Old Kled with you. After our plan is completed, he will help you take Gabrielle away and kidnap her."

Emily nodded in understanding and quickly followed Fleur and others who had already walked away.

Link and Dumbledore looked at each other and slowly walked in the opposite direction.

According to regulations, guests are not allowed to move privately within Beauxbatons Castle.

Therefore, Maxim and others also set up bans at each exit of the auditorium to limit the scope of movement of the guests.

Unfortunately, such restrictions are useless for wizards of Link and Dumbledore's level.

The two of them reached the eighth floor almost unimpeded, and then entered the ambush location they had decided upon after research.

The magic bridge from Beauxbatons Tower [-] to Tower [-].

This can be said to be the landmark building of Beauxbatons.

There is a distance of nearly a hundred meters between the two towers, but they are linked together by a magic bridge nearly three meters wide.

It's said to be a bridge, but actually it's more like a corridor.

There are no supports at all under the bridge. From a God's perspective, it looks like a wooden bar has been placed directly on the two towers.

Above the bridge, there are numerous white Roman columns and marble ceilings.

Every detail on it is engraved with complex patterns and tiny fragments of magic gems.

If there is moonlight, these patterns will emit a faint but extremely complex and beautiful light.

Turn this magical bridge itself into the most beautiful building in Beauxbatons.

And the most important thing is that this is almost the highest point that ordinary wizards can reach in Beauxbatons.

Looking down from here, you can clearly see the entire brightly lit Beauxbatons complex.

If the moonlight is brighter, you can even see the blue lake in the distance and the dark red sea of ​​flowers on the other side.

The intertwining of these three colors is enough to make people ecstasy.

"It's a pity...the weather today is not very good."

Dumbledore looked at the dark night scene in the distance and said with some regret, "I heard Olim mention the beautiful scenery of Beauxbatons a long time ago, and I originally thought that I should be able to see it with my own eyes this time. But I never thought that God would not be kind to me."

As Dumbledore spoke, he looked indescribably melancholy.

Following Dumbledore's words, Link looked up at the sky.

Then I saw that the moon, which was not too bright tonight, was completely hidden behind the dark clouds. Only a faint light was left, reflecting the large clouds that were flowing at high speed.

The corners of Link's mouth raised slightly, outlining a sinister smile:

"The moon is dark and the wind is high, it's a good time to kill!"

Dumbledore glanced at Link and said:

"You and I want different things, and the things we see are naturally different."

Link ignored Dumbledore.

Instead, he took out his magic wand and carved dense and complex patterns in the air.

These formation patterns have been shining with silver-white light since their birth.

But every character among them is without exception. The moment Link completes the drawing, they will instantly disappear into the darkness.

It was as if they had automatically sunk into another dimension.

This is the anti-Apparition Curse.

Valley</span>This type of curse removal automatically appears in Link's mind after he raises the Apparition Curse to LV6.

It can temporarily lift the restrictions of the anti-Apparition spell within a certain range without being discovered.

It’s easy to use, but it’s also time-consuming.

A full quarter of an hour later, Link completed the entire formation.

He relaxed slightly and then took off the space positioning brooch on his chest.

Use the spike of the brooch to tap lightly on your finger.

The bright red blood that emerged from the flesh rippled in the darkness.

And gradually integrated with the brooch, turning into the shape of a portal.

Then, figures slowly walked out of the portal.

First, the hunter group of the Foley family, and then, the Aurors from the Ministry of Magic also appeared one after another.

When the portal dissipated, Link and Dumbledore were surrounded by hunters and Aurors, more than fifty in total.

"Master!"

"Commissioner Foley!"

The commanders of the hunter group and the Auror unit spoke almost at the same time, but were blocked by each other at the same time, and finally stared at each other angrily.

The commander of the Auror force is still Sander.

At this moment, after serving as the director of the Auror Office for a period of time, he has developed a considerable power.

In comparison, the commander of the hunter group is somewhat inferior in terms of status.

Old Kled had been sent by Link to protect Emily early on.

The person leading the hunter group right now is just a temporary commander.

But even so, he was not afraid at all.

The look he looked at Xander was full of defiance and disdain.

"Here, a battle will break out later."

Link said calmly. After hearing this, the two people who were still confronting each other turned around instantly and changed into a look of respectful listening. "Your mission is to hide your body as much as possible. Don't let others discover it. After the battle breaks out, your task becomes to guard both sides of the bridge and don't let any unrelated person come in and disturb our battle."

"Yes!"

"understand!"

The temporary commander of the hunter group and Sander said in unison.

But this time, they no longer argued with each other, but each took their people to both sides of the bridge and began to garrison.

Watching their figures slowly disappear into the night, the corners of Dumbledore's mouth twitched a few times.

"Forget about the Disillusionment Curse and the Silencing Curse, these are the magic spells they should have mastered in the first place. But what the hell is the invisibility cloak?" Dumbledore said with a tangled expression, "And judging from the invisibility effect and speed, it is still The most advanced invisibility cloaks. Is it really necessary to invest so much in them? These are more than 50 of the most advanced invisibility cloaks. If converted into gold galleons, there should be..."

Dumbledore paused and began to calculate silently.

Link, on the other hand, shook his head and said directly:

"About fifty-five thousand gold galleons. This is the diversion of funds that I personally approved. I still have an impression. As for why such a large investment was made in them. You should have seen the effect, right?"

Dumbledore looked at the darkness at both ends of the bridge. Although he didn't want to admit it, he finally nodded.

With the blessing of these various concealment spells and the cover of the top-notch invisibility cloak, the effect is indeed very good.

So good that even a legendary wizard like him would have a hard time realizing that there are more than 50 of the most elite combat wizards hidden in those two places without knowing it in advance.

Not knowing what he thought of, Dumbledore sighed deeply.

Seeing this, Link slapped his mouth twice and said helplessly:

"Okay, I understand. I will increase the Hogwarts budget next year, and the standard will be based on the Auror Corps and Hunter Corps. Is that okay?"

"Oh! It's always good that you are willing to increase the budget to make the students live better. I would like to thank you on behalf of all the teachers and students of Hogwarts. But that's not what I meant." Dumbledore continued to stare. The darkness in the distance, "Just looking at these people and Beauxbatons Castle, I can't help but think of Hogwarts. One day, Hogwarts will also welcome a group like us." Evil guest, what a terrible scene that must be..."

"That's called the death of a rabbit and the sorrow of a fox!"

Link said with a somewhat unhappy tone, he had a new understanding of Dumbledore's shamelessness.

Besides, if it weren't for me, Hogwarts would have been invaded by Death Eaters!

In the original book, there are records of Death Eaters cooperating inside and outside, invading Hogwarts and even directly forcing Dumbledore to death!

Link vomited in his heart and said nothing.

"Is the fox sad when the rabbit dies?" Dumbledore was stunned for a moment and said, "This is really an apt metaphor. It sounds like an Eastern proverb. You are really knowledgeable. But you seem to have never been to the East. Do you get this knowledge from Where did you get it?"

Link stared at Dumbledore expressionlessly, and did not answer the other party's question, but said calmly:

"Stop all your boredom. Now is not the time for casual chit-chat."

"Bored mood?"

Dumbledore sighed, "It's indeed quite boring."

After saying this, Dumbledore slowly withdrew his gaze and began to stare into the darkness in the distance with Link.

……

At the same time, inside Beauxbatons Tower One.

Madame Maxime was strolling down the long corridor.

There are a large number of round arched windows on the outside of the cloister, facing the brightly lit buildings outside Beauxbatons Castle.

The light emitted from these buildings is reflected in the cloister through the windows, casting slanted arcs of light and shadow on the ground.

Maxim was walking among these bright silhouettes, tilting his head and constantly looking at the bustling streets below, with a faint light flickering in his eyes.

This light is called hope.

"Beauxbatons, it's getting better and better."

Maxim sighed, "It's all thanks to you, Madero. Without your help, there would never have been such big changes in Beauxbatons."

Maxim spoke extremely sincerely, and as she finished speaking, a figure slowly turned around in the shadows inside the corridor beside her.

"This is what I should do."

A gentle voice sounded from the figure's mouth.

A smile appeared on Maxim's face after hearing this:

"You are just too humble, Madero, do you want to go to my office for a drink next? It just so happens that I also have some plans for the future of Beauxbatons that I want to discuss with you."

"No, Principal Maxim, I haven't finished my inspection tonight yet."

"Inspection, actually I don't quite understand," Maxim shook his head. "Now that Beauxbatons' security measures have been improved to almost the extreme, I don't think it is necessary for you to patrol the castle."

"Yes, I also understand that there is a high probability that my efforts are just in vain." The figure in the darkness said slowly, with a hint of firmness in his gentle tone, "But if I don't walk so many laps every day, I feel uneasy in my heart. It's as if if I don't leave, danger will come to Beauxbatons."

Maxim's expression moved slightly and he said:

"I understand how you feel, Madero, Beauxbatons. This school is like my child. For this school, I will give everything, even my life."

"That's it," Madero Lillo said excitedly in the dark, "You are so right!"

"So, then you go on a patrol first. Just take it as a peace of mind. If you are really in danger, ask someone to notify me. I think this won't be too much for you. Something too difficult.”

Maxim said with a smile and glanced at the corner behind.

There, there were a few little heads looking at this place furtively.

Those are all followers of Professor Lillo, or fans.

Professor Lillo was the only one who could make this group of students abandon the ongoing dance and chase them here.

"Madero, I have no problem with students loving you, but please note that love between teachers and students is absolutely prohibited at Beauxbatons."

Maxim said calmly, and without looking back, he stepped onto the steps and walked towards his office on the top floor.

Professor Lillo did not follow this time, but stood quietly.

After losing the shield of Maxim's huge body, the light from the arched window fell on Professor Lillo's body unbridled.

It illuminated his neat black dress and his expressionless face.

Do not!

It would be inappropriate to describe this face without any expression.

To be more accurate, there was no trace of life on this face.

It was as if what was standing in the corridor at this moment was not a living person, but a lifeless puppet.

"I understand, Principal Maxim."

A gentle and respectful voice came from Li Luo's mouth again.

But his face was still the same as before, without any expression.

It wasn't until the children at the corner behind him cheered and crowded around him that a human expression appeared on his face.

He smiled gently and held the three children in his arms.
