The students were shocked to hear Professor Flitwick say that the famous Merlin’s garrison had been attacked.
Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment at first.
Everyone’s first reaction was –
“Merlin’s Order actually has a base?”
“I’ve never heard of it…”
Perhaps seeing the confusion on the students’ faces, Professor Flitwick said loudly: “Yes, Merlin’s Order has a base!”
He explained to everyone, “It is a palace hidden by magic. Only wizards who have won the first-class Order of Merlin are qualified to go there for the medal ceremony!”
“I didn’t expect there really is such a place!” Eddie said in surprise, “I wonder if I have the chance to go there and take a look.”
“Hehe.”
Roger may still hate his ridicule just now, so he said sarcastically: “You? Impossible! Think about who those who have won the first-class Order of Merlin are!”
“Why is it impossible?” Eddie said unconvinced, “Even Lockhart has won the third-class Order of Merlin!”
Roger looked at him with contempt: “Can you write books like Lockhart? Are you as beautiful as him? Can you lie like him…”
Speaking of this, he suddenly froze for a moment.
“No… You should still be able to achieve this.” He changed his words.
Hearing his words, Scott and Milton immediately laughed.
Eddie didn’t care. He said excitedly: “Why hide such a place? It’s useless at ordinary times! I want to say, wouldn’t it be good to run it as a tourist attraction and collect tickets to make money?”
At this time, Quidditch Captain Bruce raised his hand and asked Professor Flitwick loudly, “Professor! Did you stop the witch’s attack? Did you catch her, the daughter of Slytherin!”
Hearing his question, everyone quieted down again, staring at Professor Flitwick, waiting for his answer.
Even Scott was no exception.
“It’s a pity.”
Professor Flitwick shook his head.
“It was too late when we arrived there…”
His expression was a little sad.
“Two of the several members of the Jazz Corps stationed there were killed, and the magic contained in the palace building was also consumed…”
“This…”
Scott saw Bruce’s eyes widened in surprise.
“Since the Merlin’s headquarters is hidden by magic…” the seventh-year male prefect asked loudly, “Could there be a traitor among the members of Merlin’s group?”
“We thought so too.” Professor Flitwick sighed, “Unfortunately, we don’t know who betrayed Merlin’s group yet.”
“Is she really… a daughter of Slytherin?” Another student asked hesitantly, and this student was obviously influenced by the newspaper.
“Of course she is! The students who were hospitalized in the last Hogwarts incident knew that this was the fact.”
Professor Flitwick said affirmatively.
“Moreover, in today’s attack, she called herself Medea Slytherin, and the members of the group also saw her controlling a group of snakes with Parseltongue, and they believed it.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the common room became lively again.
Everyone was discussing this matter.
This is so strange.
Even Voldemort didn’t think of Merlin’s group!
She is worthy of being the daughter of Slytherin, Voldemort’s blood ancestor.
Scott was also lamenting about this matter-
In just a few days, Medea has been doing very well, even the members of Merlin’s group have been infiltrated by her.
A few days ago, he heard from Professor Flitwick that if Medea wanted to be truly resurrected, she needed a powerful source of magic to hold the transformation ceremony.
Professor Flitwick was sure that there were few such places at that time.
It seems that he did not expect Medea to attack Merlin’s group’s base at that time.
Yeah, who would have thought of it.
However, Scott thought more.
After such a thing happened, the Ministry of Magic might not be able to play dumb and fool around anymore.
Merlin can be said to be the belief of British wizards, and his representative significance is probably more important than Hogwarts.
Not to mention, the members of Merlin’s group are all well-known and famous big names in the magic world, and their combined energy is not something that the Ministry of Magic can easily resist.
Even if the Ministry of Magic wants to suppress this matter, it can’t suppress it!
This matter may be completely out of control.
At this time, Scott was already looking forward to it. He began to look forward to the reaction of the Ministry of Magic to see what they would do.
Of course, there is also Voldemort, who is now lingering on.
What would his reaction be if he knew that he had an ancestor who was oppressing him?
Thinking of this, he felt that things were getting interesting.
Scott looked around the common room.
Judging from everyone’s expressions, he found that there were quite a few students who had similar ideas as him.
Although everyone didn’t know that Voldemort was still alive, many people were obviously waiting to see the Ministry of Magic and the Daily Prophet make a fool of themselves.
It turns out that people are divided into groups.
Hehe.
Scott couldn’t help but smile.
“What are you laughing at, Scott?” Eddie asked him curiously.
Scott answered softly without hesitation, “Of course I’m looking forward to tomorrow’s newspaper.”
“Is that so?” Eddie couldn’t help laughing, “I’m really looking forward to what those reporters will say, especially that annoying Rita Skeeter!”
Milton said sarcastically: “You underestimate the ability of those reporters to change their attitudes with the wind!”
Obviously, he also hated those reporters.
“Why has no one ever taught a profound lesson to Rita Skeeter, who likes to talk nonsense!” Roger said curiously.
“It should be that the guy is too cunning.”
Scott said calmly.
“Didn’t you notice that she usually only provokes those she can afford to provoke.”
Roger emphasized, “She dared to slander Dumbledore!”
“Because she knows that Dumbledore disdains to retaliate against her.” Scott shrugged.
But she is not that smart.
Scott thought.
Because she provoked him.
If it weren’t for her, Mike and Millie would not have left England!
Scott, who holds a grudge, has already written her on his blacklist.
He has long decided that as long as he gets the chance, he will be ready to give her a hard time.
It’s a pity that he hasn’t encountered such an opportunity yet.
Because he doesn’t know the whereabouts of Rita Skeeter at all.
Of course, Scott knows that Rita Skeeter is an illegal Animagus.
She would turn into a beetle to eavesdrop on people’s secrets.
But Scott didn’t think of reporting her.
Because he wasn’t sure if reporting would work, after all, Rita Skeeter often acted as the mouthpiece of the Ministry of Magic.
People like her were likely to have connections with some officials in the Ministry of Magic.
Scott guessed that Rita Skeeter, who was rich and well-connected, was likely to be able to settle the matter of being reported as an illegal Animagus.
Although she would indeed suffer some losses in this way, such revenge was not enough for Scott.
