The dazzling white light gradually extinguished.
Scott and Dumbledore finally saw the situation ahead.
At this time, a piece of land on the edge of the Black Lake has disappeared.
Including the Slytherin lounge they had conjured up, a huge spherical space had disappeared out of thin air, and the water in the black lake began to pour back.
“This is……”
Dumbledore, who had always been calm and collected, had a shocked expression on his face.
Even Scott looked at his results in surprise.
“They were imprisoned in the space I created with ‘Yuktrasiel’.”
He raised his left hand.
At this time, the red disposable magic stone held in his hand had turned into transparent white.
Scott swallowed and explained to Dumbledore.
“This is not the original one-time magic stone. I consumed the power of that one-time magic stone to create a complete space and a gem that carries that space.”
Dumbledore lowered his head and looked closely at the transparent white gem in Scott’s hand.
The half-moon glasses on his face had fallen to the tip of his nose, but he didn’t bother to push them up.
“Professor, what should we do next?”
Scott asked Dumbledore.
Dumbledore finally came to his senses and pushed up his glasses.
“I didn’t think you could do this, Scott.”
He looked at Scott in surprise.
“Can you grasp the movements of Voldemort and the others in space?”
“I can.”
Scott nodded, closed his eyes and felt for a while.
“There was too much movement to open up space just now, and they have already discovered that something is wrong.”
he told Dumbledore.
“Now they have emerged from the fake Slytherin common room, Anthracene, and Voldemort is attacking the dimensional wall.”
As he spoke, he frowned.
“Sorry, I don’t have enough control over super magic. I just relied on the one-time magic stone to forcefully open up a large enough space.”
“So under Voldemort’s attack, this space cannot exist for long. It will automatically collapse after about a day.”
“One day?” Dumbledore pondered for a moment, “One day is enough.”
At this time, the wizards hiding in the woods on the other side came running over.
“what happened?”
They were all shocked to see the huge hole in the land and the water flowing in from the lake.
“Is the mysterious man coming?”
“Why are they all missing?”
“Albus.”
Minister Bones came over.
“What’s going on here?”
“Oh, Ms. Bones.” Dumbledore called her over, “Although it sounds incredible, it is true…”
He explained the situation to Ms. Bones.
Because they pretended to be whispering, no one else came closer. Instead, they walked away consciously and did not hear their conversation.
After hearing this, Ms. Bones looked at Scott in surprise.
“Are you kidding me, Albus? Can this kid do something like this?”
“It’s true.” Dumbledore nodded.
“If other people hear this statement, they will definitely think that you are bragging or telling a joke that is not funny.”
Ms. Bones smiled helplessly.
“But the amazing thing is, I believed it.”
She also looked down at the transparent white gemstone in Scott’s hand.
“So…our mortal enemy, the terrifying Dark Lord, and his Death Eaters are all trapped in this small stone?”
“They’re not really in this little rock, Secretary Bones.”
Scott explained to her.
“I used super magic to open up a complete space, but that space does not coincide with the space we are in, but belongs to a different space.”
“This small stone is the carrier of that different space, and can also be regarded as the key to open the different space.”
“Oh, that’s a good explanation, I already understand it.”
Ms. Bones looked up at Scott.
“I remember you, Scott Trollope, don’t you? You performed very well in the accident in the Quidditch World Cup finals, and later won the Triwizard Tournament.”
“Yes, it’s me, ma’am.”
Ms. Burns smiled and said: “If Albus is not an old fool, you have made a great contribution this time. I have to say that I have never seen such an outstanding young wizard as you.”
“Thank you for the compliment.”
Scott reached out and handed the transparent white gem in his hand to Dumbledore.
“The rest is up to you, Professor.”
“oh……”
Dumbledore did not reach for it and turned to look at Ms. Bones.
“What do you think we should do about it, Amelia?”
“This is a difficult problem.” Ms. Bones frowned. “If you open the space, they will escape. If you don’t open it, the space will collapse after a day.”
“You’re right.” Scott affirmed.
Ms. Bones did not hesitate for a long time. After a while, she made a decision, “Then, build an inescapable prison in one day and put them inside.”
“Can’t escape?” Scott was surprised, “Including Voldemort?”
Ms. Bones nodded.
“I need your help, Albus.”
she said to Dumbledore.
“Oh, we also need help from the Russell alchemy family in France. I don’t know if we can make it in one day.”
“It’s difficult,” Dumbledore said, “unless they have a large stock of Russell alloy.”
Listening to the conversation between the two, Scott fell into deep thought.
He couldn’t think of any prison that Voldemort could not escape from.
Unless the entire prison is made of Russell alloy that cannot be destroyed by magic.
But that’s not possible.
Even if the Russell family could afford it, Scott would suspect that the British Ministry of Magic couldn’t afford it.
So, what about throwing them into the [Eye of Odin] space?
No, that space is very large, and there is even a forest. Although it can trap them, it cannot make them lose their fighting ability.
In addition, Scott didn’t want the house his family built during the summer to completely suffer.
The Tower of Gungnir below the Stenness Standing Stone should work, but it can only be opened there on the summer solstice.
The only thing left is the secret realm of “Niflheim”. The space passage there is located at the bottom of the deep sea and there is only a land of ice and snow, which is just right.
If Voldemort and the Death Eaters were thrown in, what awaited them would basically be a dead end.
But would Ms. Bones and Dumbledore agree?
After all, the space is not full of villains like Voldemort. There are also Malfoy and several other minors who have not been completely blackened, as well as Snape, the double agent, and Mrs. Rowe who went undercover…
If we take a serious look at it, some people are indeed worthy of death.
“Oh, Scott…”
“yes.”
Scott looked up.
“What do you seem to have on your mind?” Dumbledore asked.
“I……”
Scott hesitated.
Because his thoughts just now were a little cruel.
“Say what you think,” Ms. Bones said. “After all, you created this space.”
“Two options.”
By now Scott had made up his mind to speak out.
“First, put this stone into the [Odin’s Eye] space. When the different space I opened automatically collapses, they will appear there because of the coordinates of the stone.”
“[The Eye of Odin] is a treasure I obtained from an ancient secret realm, and it is related to another different space.”
“Unlike the different space I temporarily opened, that different space is very stable.”
“The good thing is there’s enough there to trap Voldemort.”
“The disadvantage is that the alien space is very large and has a resource-rich forest. They can survive there. Even if time passes, their combat effectiveness will not be compromised.”
Ms. Bones nodded, “What’s another option?”
“Second, the secret realm of ‘Niflheim’ located in the waters near the Arctic line of the Norwegian Sea.”
Scott glanced at Dumbledore.
“I’ve been there too.”
“The advantage is that the space passage of that secret realm is located at the bottom of the deep sea, and only I can open it.”
“The disadvantage is that the secret realm is a land of ice and snow, the temperature is extremely low, and there is no food. They may not be able to last long.”
Ms. Bones frowned tightly.
“…If only Voldemort existed.”
Her tone was regretful.
Scott understood what she meant. If there was only Voldemort, she would not hesitate to choose the “Niflheim” secret realm with a harsh environment.
But unfortunately, there are others with Voldemort today.
“Maybe try the second option.”
Dumbledore spoke.
Scott and Ms. Bones both turned to look at him in surprise.
Dumbledore asked Scott.
“Can you control the entrance and exit of a different space? If you can only open a space passage that only one person can pass through, maybe Voldemort can’t help but rush out first.”
Scott understood.
What Dumbledore meant was to connect the space passage in this different space with the space passage in the “Niflheim” secret realm, let Voldemort take the initiative to run into the secret realm, and then close the two space passages.
If successful, it would be equivalent to imprisoning Voldemort alone.
And it’s life imprisonment.
Even if he couldn’t die because Harry was his Horcrux, it didn’t matter.
“Although I’m not sure, I can try, but I can’t guarantee that it will succeed.” Scott said, “And Voldemort may let others come out to explore the way first.”
Just like passing through the disappearing cabinet just now, he appeared last.
Dumbledore said: “So we need to provoke him, or convey an illusion to him, so that he can’t wait.”
“Provoke him?”
Of course it’s easy to anger a madman, but how to do it from a different dimension?
Even Scott, who created this alien space, couldn’t do it.
He can sense the situation inside, but cannot make adjustments to the things in the space.
wrong……
Could it be through…
Scott and Dumbledore looked at each other, and Dumbledore nodded, confirming his guess.
It’s Harry.
The scar on Harry’s forehead contains fragments of Voldemort’s soul. There is a secret connection between them that cannot be blocked even in different dimensions.
But Scott didn’t know how to do it specifically, so he could only leave this matter to Dumbledore.
As for Dumbledore, he whispered to Ms. Bones again.
Scott stood next to the two of them, receiving a lot of curious and puzzled looks.
Those people seemed not to understand why Scott, a student, could participate in the secret talks between the Minister of Magic and the Headmaster of Hogwarts related to dealing with Voldemort.
Especially Umbridge, who is dressed in pink and looks like a toad.
Her eyes kept flickering, and the fake smile on her face could no longer hold on.
He offered up his favorite room in an attempt to curry favor with Minister Bones, but was suddenly rejected.
Now, as a senior deputy minister, she was completely unable to participate in the minister’s conversation.
She must be cursing in her heart.
How unbecoming!
Forget Dumbledore. Although this old man is only a principal, he is also the president of the International Federation of Wizards and the chief wizard of the Wizengamot.
Why Trollope? He’s obviously just a student who hasn’t graduated yet!
It was probably because Dumbledore was confused that a student would be involved in such a big event.
The minister…the minister didn’t stop him either.
It seems that Bones is not a qualified Minister of Magic. She does not know how to be a high-ranking official and how to maintain the authority of an official.
Only I, Dolores Umbridge, am a natural-born official, the most suitable Minister of Magic!
Of course, the above are all Scott’s guesses based on Umbridge’s expression and eyes.
“…Then I’ll leave it to you.”
“Don’t worry.”
“Hopefully you will be successful and preserve the evidence.”
“I will.”
“Thank you, Albus, this is not your responsibility.”
“It’s my duty to thank you, Amelia, for not being dissatisfied with me for doing too much.”
“Because I know what you’re doing and you deserve my trust.”
Ms. Bones ended her conversation with Dumbledore and turned towards the crowd on the other side.
Soon, she apparated away with the Aurors.
“Next…minister Bones won’t be involved?” Scott asked softly.
“She has a lot of work to do, too,” said Dumbledore.
At this time, several remaining members of the Order of the Phoenix came over.
“What’s going on?” Sirius asked impatiently, “Why will Ms. Bones announce the results of this operation only tomorrow?”
Dumbledore said: “Because we haven’t gotten decisive results yet, but we already have plans and can look forward to the final results.”
“What’s the meaning?”
Dumbledore spoke ambiguously, and Sirius obviously didn’t understand.
“You don’t have to ask so many questions.” Professor Moody said, “Let’s do whatever Albus says. You should choose to believe him.”
“Yes, Dumbledore is always right.” Mr. Weasley nodded in agreement.
“Oh, I didn’t say I didn’t believe him.” Sirius curled his lips.
Lupine, who was standing next to him, smiled and patted his shoulder.
“Let’s go back to the castle first.”
Dumbledore looked up at the castle across the Black Lake.
At this time, dawn has arrived.
