HP: The New God from Hogwarts

Chapter 245 Big Trouble

"How's it going? Solved?"

When Taowu and Newt landed away from the large metal fragments in the air, Dumbledore immediately leaned over and asked.

"We've fallen into a trap. We have to hurry to the Ministry of Magic." She put the Fire Dragon back into Newt's suitcase and hurried towards the castle.

The Ministry of Magic is not close to Hogwarts, and Apparition cannot be used within the range of Hogwarts. The Floo network in the headmaster's office is obviously much faster than riding a fireball dragon.

When Newt was about to follow with his suitcase, Dumbledore stopped him and asked, "Is their target the Ministry of Magic?"

Seeing the wise and sharp light flashing in the old man's blue eyes, Newt nodded.

Seeing the worried look on his face, Dumbledore still didn't let go: "Several of my old friends are already there. The hope of the wizarding world should be protected by them. Have you found out who that person is?"

"Not yet. Jacob hasn't been able to find any useful information either." Newt breathed a sigh of relief. He had to admire his mentor's foresight. "I think we should be able to catch this troubled fish in the wizarding world today."

Dumbledore loosened his hand, turned to Grindelwald and said, "Go to the Ministry of Magic."

Newt turned around and looked at Grindelwald commanding the saints. He couldn't help but feel suspicious. He leaned closer to Dumbledore and asked, "Is he really Aberforth's grandson?"

Dumbledore just smiled and said nothing, then gently touched his heart with his finger.

Newt was puzzled, but Dumbledore seemed to refuse to answer any relevant questions, so he had to quicken his pace to chase Taowu who had disappeared.

Seeing that he had abandoned Dumbledore, Grindelwald immediately swayed and walked to Dumbledore's side, and asked in a sour tone: "You really have something to say to him."

He always liked to be sarcastic like this. For example, in a coffee shop many years ago, he stood opposite and asked himself, "Who else will love you Dumbledore?"

"Newt probably guessed it." Dumbledore squinted at Grindelwald, "Your true identity."

Grindelwald was stunned for a moment, then put on a rebellious smile again: "Who cares about him!"

Dumbledore smiled but said nothing, and just walked forward side by side with him.

It had been a long, long time since they had walked side by side like this, and fought side by side.

So long ago that his aged mind can hardly remember it.

Tao Wu didn't wait for Newt and Dumbledore, the other guys who were dithering and dragging their feet. She was the first to reach the Ministry of Magic through the fireplace in the headmaster's office.

She often took the route through Dumbledore's office to get to the Ministry of Magic, so she was now very familiar with the route.

The hall of the Ministry of Magic was in a mess. The huge statue of Merlin had disappeared, turned into a pile of stones, scattered on the bumpy ground.

No wizards were seen.

But where the statue of Merlin was originally placed, a huge metal machine was placed, and several witch hunters with guns were surrounding the machine.

Without much thought, Tao Wu guessed that this was a metal shielding device, which was originally used as a machine in Hogwarts and now stood in the Ministry of Magic.

A man in a white coat who looked like a scientific researcher was standing in front of the machine. He poked the operating panel a few times with his fingers. The giant metal object lit up with a strange red light and emitted an uncomfortable dull buzzing sound.

It was somewhat unfortunate that she had just arrived here when the magic shielding device was activated.

Tao Wu suddenly turned her head and looked at the fireplace she had just come out of, grabbed a handful of Floo powder and went back in.

She sprinkled Floo powder from her hands, but the familiar blue flame did not appear, and she still stood in the same place.

Due to the magic shielding device, the passage from Hogwarts to the Ministry of Magic was forcibly closed in one direction.

She pulled out a palm-sized black cube from her pocket, quickly pressed a few buttons on it, and then put it back into her pocket.

She took a few steps forward stealthily and felt that her magic was sealed. She could not use magic, not even ancient magic. She could only carefully hide beside the rubble and observe the situation around her.

Not far away, she could hear the witch hunters talking next to the shield.

"It's all because of those damn old guys. If it weren't for them, we would have already caught those little devils!"

"It's so annoying. If they hadn't come to make trouble, I would have finished get off work now and I want to go home. My wife said she cooked cream of mushrooms for me today."

"Who said it wasn't? I finally managed to get Aria to go on a date with me at the Sound Wave Bar."

"Well, stop complaining. The machine is now activated and Commander Levi will be able to complete the task soon."

It seems that they are not having a good time, as the young wizards of Hogwarts did not fall into their hands.

She used the Merlin fragments as cover, crouched down and carefully moved towards the passage on the other side.

Without the protection of magic, she didn't dare to act as arrogantly as usual.

When they walked a few meters away, the witch hunters were still motionless and were chatting around the machine. One soldier even took out a bag of nuts and shared them with his colleagues around him.

The other party's slack work attitude made Tao Wu relax a little. She quickened her pace, wanting to get to the other side as soon as possible.

I accidentally stepped on a loose stone, and the stone rolled along the ruins to the ground with a crisp sound.

"who is it!"

The researcher who was picking nuts with a cloth bag twitched her ears and raised her head vigilantly. Tao Wu observed with her peripheral vision that it was a woman, wearing a hat and glasses, and her appearance could not be seen clearly at all.

The lenses of the glasses on the researcher's face reflected a faint cold light, and the glasses under the light seemed to be following Tao Wu's figure.

The witch hunters around also dropped the nuts in their hands and put the guns on their backs on their arms.

"over there!"

The researcher's ears were too sharp, and he located Tao Wu's position immediately.

Without magic, we can only -

run!

Tao Wu gathered all her strength in her legs and ran quickly, intending to reach the destination in one go.

The witch hunter's roar and the loud sound of bullets grazing her hair and cheeks hitting the stone wall became unreal in her ears. Her body's instinct allowed her to dodge those deadly bullets time and time again.

The researcher picked up a sniper.

The bullet whizzed towards Tao Wu's head.

A figure suddenly jumped out from the rubble and protected her with his body.

Tao Wu heard the dull sound of the bullet penetrating into flesh, and the man's muffled groan in pain.

The man hugged her and rolled on the ground for a few times before quickly jumping into another passage entrance.

The witch hunter chased after him, and he immediately took Tao Wu and circled around in the corridor into a room, thus avoiding the witch hunter's pursuit.

Tao Wu recovered and looked at the face of this lifesaver:

"You are--"
