The Admiral of Hogwarts

In the following period, Umbridge completed the first round of reviews of all professors, and each professor successively received their evaluations.

Surprisingly, Professor Snape, who had confronted her head-on last time, received permission for his review to pass. On the contrary, Professor Trelawney received a notice of probation.

According to Hugo's view, one reason Umbridge didn't target Snape was because he was just an assistant teacher, a relatively marginal figure in the school. Therefore, even if he were fired, it wouldn't be a significant blow.

Another reason was because Snape's previous achievements had genuinely frightened her. Umbridge was also worried that if she really fired Snape, he might retaliate against her.

At least in Umbridge's eyes, Snape belonged to the kind of maniac with blood on his hands, so once provoked, he could put her in mortal danger for a long time.

The days that followed seemed somewhat peaceful, even somewhat lifeless. This was because Umbridge's control over the school became increasingly strict, making the school more and more like a prison.

The only difference from usual was Professor Trelawney. Because she received a notice of probation, she became more and more hysterical, even affecting her usual classes.

Besides that, the Gryffindor Quidditch team's permission had not been approved, which led Harry to channel more of his enthusiasm into the Defense Association as a form of revenge.

However, this also brought Hugo an extra income. Because Harry's Defense Association had a relatively diverse membership, the meeting times were not fixed.

So after considering it, Harry ordered a batch of cufflinks from Hugo with patterns that could be transformed, to contact everyone and transmit information.

"Why do these cufflinks look different?" Harry asked, somewhat puzzled, after receiving the goods, because each of these cufflinks had a different style and looked very messy.

"If you wear the same style of cufflinks, I think some people will definitely realize that these people may belong to the same organization," Hugo shrugged and said.

"So this was made this way for safety reasons. To be honest, if I wasn't worried about this issue, I would never have spent so much effort to make each one different."

"Thank you, Hugo," Harry said, patting Hugo's shoulder happily after hearing what Hugo said. "Thank you for all the help you've given."

Although the school had been very quiet recently, the outside wizarding world, especially the dark side of the wizarding world, seemed somewhat chaotic. From Spain to Russia, everything was slowly stirring.

This was most likely related to Voldemort's resurrection. Although still in the latent stage, Voldemort and his Death Eaters had begun to acquire personnel and supplies from all over Europe to prepare for future wars.

Especially Albania, as a major center of dark magic in the past. Even the ship girls had to enter a state of combat readiness for a long time, and would strike once they received an order.

Fortunately, the ship girls were not worried about pure combat. Multiple head-on collisions had always ended in the Black Wizards' crushing defeat, forcing those Black Wizards to temporarily abandon their plans to return to Albania.

Of course, in these wars, the cannon fodder teams composed of the original Albanian Black Wizards were also brutally killed by the girls, which greatly benefited local stability.

At least without these local snakes to lead the way, it would not be as easy for those foreign Black Wizards to infiltrate Albania or the Western Balkans as it had been these past few times.

To be honest, even for the ship girls with explosive combat power, fighting a counter-insurgency war was very difficult. So, killing those local snakes could at least avoid endless urban warfare or guerrilla warfare.

"I feel that the number of Black Wizards coming here has obviously decreased recently," Warspite, who was temporarily on duty here, said. "The batch of four Black Wizards we caught yesterday should be the most this month."

"We have killed more than sixty Black Wizards, plus non-human beings such as vampires and goblins. We have eliminated hundreds of these invaders, and captured three times as many," Blücher, who was also temporarily brought in to guard, said.

"Although the bait given by that double-hole socket is indeed tempting, and the Black Wizards are relatively bold, this kind of mortality rate and capture rate will soon calm them down."

Because the area that needed to be guarded was too large, and the number of ship girls that could be mobilized was not large, and the Black Wizards could move through various secret methods. Therefore, even with a series of space stations and satellite detection, the ship girls could only stop half of the infiltrators.

But 1/4 of these infiltrators would be killed, and the remaining 3/4 would be captured. Almost no one could escape from the ship girls' hands.

In addition to the ship girls, the Aurors and Hit Wizards in the Western Balkans also took action. They could only stop 1/10 of the infiltrators at most, but they could comprehensively ensure the stability of law and order in their jurisdictions.

In this way, only 2/5 of all infiltrators could escape unscathed. Even for the desperadoes among the Black Wizards, this loss rate was too high.

After all, a 1/8 mortality rate and a nearly half capture rate, even in the two wizarding wars, was not so bad except for a few extremely tragic large-scale battles.

Black Wizards are indeed fiercer and better at fighting than ordinary wizards, but that doesn't mean they have no brains. So, after the first round of attacks, they automatically died down.

Especially during the pursuit, as long as the Black Wizards used powerful dark magic such as the Killing Curse, the Cruciatus Curse, or Fiendfyre, the ship girls would never leave anyone alive.

For example, a relatively famous Greek Black Wizard used several Killing Curses before and then used magical props to escape, but even after running to Yekaterinburg, he was still found by Sverdlov and stormed into his safe house and killed, and then left the Mutual Aid Society's mark.

As a result, although this led to a dispute between the Western Balkans Ministry of Magic and the Russian Ministry of Magic, it also completely suppressed the morale of the Black Wizards.

If there are no accidents, before the core Death Eaters or Voldemort himself lead an attack, this gathering place of Black Wizards, which used to be one of the best in Europe, should not face too many Black Wizard attacks.

Of course, because of the recent chaos, local specialties are all rising in price. So there are slightly more smugglers recently, but because of the ship girls' previous killings, these smugglers have been much more honest than before.

For example, when encountering ship girls, there is basically no resistance, but they will choose to escape or surrender directly. After all, no one is willing to risk their lives for dozens of Galleons.

In addition, local law and order has also entered the most stable period in nearly a hundred years. At least after those guys who were secretly causing trouble were cleaned up, the other small fries could not cause much trouble.

"I heard that Yubari is currently developing a magical facility that can determine Black Wizards from satellites," Warspite took out a cup of black tea from the ship outfit space, took a sip, and said. "That way, we'll be much easier in the future."

"Hopefully," Blücher took out a chocolate cake and said, "Relying on manual inspection has too many loopholes. It would be terrible if something really happened."
