Dumbledore was very uncomfortable. He felt that the connection with the Hogwarts that he had been used to filling up his body for a long time no longer existed. Although the sudden tearing sensation had passed, it was a slow process. The intense discomfort and emptiness made the old wizard look like he was about to collapse. His companions also noticed this.
"Abusi! Are you alright?! I've never seen you like this. "Professor Mag quickly held him up.
"He really did it!" Moody's face was hideous. He waved his wand and was about to rush forward. Lupin, who was beside him, looked up abruptly and blinked his eyes in shock. The muscles on his face froze, and he couldn't help but let go of the mad-eyed man. The pure-blood school directors exploded like a pot of boiling water. This unexpected attack made them panic, and they angrily accused Allen.
Seeing this, Dumbledore quickly raised his hand to stop Moody and the others, ignoring his discomfort. His old voice was a little urgent. "Stop … He didn't …"
"Don't get me wrong. I only fired Mr. Dumbledore, cut off his connection with the school, and completely removed his control over the Hogwarts … It's just that it's been too long since he became the principal of the Hogwarts School of Magic in 1943, so he's not used to it." Allen calmly shook his head. "Oh, right. I'm sorry, professors. I've just cut off everyone's connection with the Hogwarts. I'll restore your identities one by one later."
"Add 10 points to Gryffindor," Professor Mag said solemnly. Professor Mag pushed her glasses up with a straight face. She didn't question Alan further. Instead, she raised her hand and used the most direct method to test whether Alan was telling the truth or not. However, she didn't feel any connection with the hourglass, which meant that she had failed to add points.
"Hufflepuff minus 10 points." Professor Sprout also tries to exercise her authority as a professor. She rubs her hands in astonishment when she fails to feel that she has successfully deducted points. After so many years, being the dean of Hogwarts is more than just a job. Hogwarts is more like her home. Suddenly, she is cut off from her home. Panic surrounds her like a tide. Professor Sprout suddenly raised her head and looked at Allen. Because she was too scared, her thick hat that was full of patches was tilted to one side.
Professor Mag's heart seemed to be pressed by an invisible rock. Her lips trembled uncontrollably due to the excessive panic. Professor Mag, who was flustered, couldn't control her emotions for a moment. She clenched her hands tightly, and asked in a voice sharper than usual, "Mr. Harris, how did you do it?"
Pomona Sprout also wanted to question Allen Harris like Mileva, but her throat seemed to be blocked, and she couldn't say a word.
Professor Fleevy was already determined to leave Hogwarts, so he didn't lose his composure like Mileva and the others. However, he couldn't calm down and felt that his heart was about to beat out of his chest. He wandered and wandered, but he couldn't find an exit.
"Professors, please don't panic." Allen pressed his hands down, then bent down and comforted Professor Fleevy sincerely. "Don't worry, Professor Fleevy. I just removed Dumbledore from his position and all his previous orders to the Hogwarts. Whether it's the facilities, the defense system, or the portraits, everything in the Hogwarts will no longer respond to his orders, so the contract with the professors he invited has become invalid. Let me redo it later, and it will be restored …"
Everyone present clearly saw Dumbledore's performance and Professor Mag's experiment. After a moment of silence, the wizards in the square were in an uproar. As the principal, Dumbledore had lost contact with the school, and the professors had lost the right to add or subtract marks. This meant that they had all cut off contact with the Hogwarts.
On the other side, Allen didn't care about them anymore. He raised his arm and drew a semicircle in the air. As his arm fell, two flames appeared in the air, and countless skulls that seemed to be screaming silently appeared after being burned. Accompanied by the flames, an arched gate made of skulls appeared in the square of the Hogwarts.
Neat and loud cries came from the gate, and fully equipped death knights marched into the square. The sound of their leather boots stepping on the square was powerful and shocking, echoing in the castle. Their tall bodies and black armor that glowed with a cold light made people tremble in fear just by looking at them.
The noisy wizards held their breaths as they watched in horror as the death knights quickly divided into two lines and surrounded the whole square, trapping all the wizards in the middle.
"Everyone, please don't panic. These death knights are also one of the security forces after the Hogwarts. Actually, I have already obtained the rights to the Hogwarts a long time ago. The real rights came directly from the founder of the Hogwarts." Allen raised his head and glanced at the terrified, angry, and flustered faces of the pure-blood school board members. He raised his voice. "In addition, when the Hogwarts were first established, there was no such thing as a school board, so you people have no right to control the Hogwarts. You just think that you have the rights to the Hogwarts, but it will be different in the future. From today onwards, you are not allowed to interfere with the school's affairs. Without permission, you are also not allowed to enter the Hogwarts. Otherwise, the Hogwarts's own defense system will treat you people who have nothing to do with the school as enemies and counterattack."
The school board members were also in a mess. Amelia Burns' face was even gloomier than Dumbledore's. Her uneasy heart was beating faster and faster, and she could not hold on any longer. A feeling of dizziness swept through her body from the inside. She grabbed Ben Bostel, who was beside her, to stabilize her body, only to find that Ben's eyes were filled with anxiety. His face was pale, and sweat seemed to be coming out of his forehead.
Nervousness and fear still occupied Paul Greengrass' mind. His legs were slightly bent, and he did not dare to straighten them. He was worried that if he straightened his legs, he would tremble non-stop. His whole body was like a deflated balloon, and he had no strength to support himself. He realized that things were not going well. This feeling of panic and fear grew stronger with Allen's words and actions.
"No, I don't believe it, Harris. You are a big liar. You must have found a way to control the Hogwarts! How dare you say that you have gained the recognition of the founder and the ownership! " The muscles on Alji Longbottom's face were tight, and his facial features were almost twisted due to panic and despair. He looked very ferocious. "Our Longbottom family has owned the shares of the Hogwarts since ancient times, and it has been passed down to me from generation to generation. The Hogwarts will never refuse my entry!"
Alji Longbottom's eyes were staring straight as he muttered to himself. As if hypnotized by his own words, he rushed into the Hogwarts' entrance like a madman.
Under his lead, a few pure-blood school board members who looked a little crazy seemed to have grasped at the last straw of hope. Because of the appearance of the Death Knights, they realized that the situation was not good. They were trembling, sweating, and their hearts were beating wildly in their chests. But when they saw Alji rushing into the Hogwarts with his arms waving, they clenched their wands and followed him.
Not far from the entrance of the auditorium, they heard a strange rustling sound coming from somewhere. Thinking of Allen's warning just now, Alji Longbottom could not help but stop. He clenched the wand in his hand and looked around vigilantly.
Alji suddenly felt something on the tip of his nose. He raised his hand and gently wiped the tip of his nose. When he looked up, he saw that his hand was stained with a little dust.
The stone statues on the walls of the hallway that stretched all the way to the ceiling began to come to life. A fully armed statue of a Stone Knight jumped down from the wall with a weapon in its hand and blocked the entrance.
The Stone Knight statue landed on one knee and held the spear in its hand tightly. It raised its head mechanically and looked at Alji Longbottom. Then, two more Stone Knights jumped down from the stone supports that were sunk into the wall. They knelt on one knee and slowly raised their heads. Their eyes were emotionless as they looked at Alji Longbottom and the others who had just barged in.
Alji quickly stopped and looked at the Stone Knights that had suddenly come to life. Cold sweat seeped out of his palms. The few adepts behind him stopped in their tracks. They were so terrified that they didn't even dare to move.
All the statues and armors in the hallway came to life. Some were slightly smaller, some were bigger than a person, and some were animals. The clanging armors were waving swords and wolf fang balls with chains. Following a series of collisions, dozens of stone statues swarmed out and lined up neatly in the hallway outside the auditorium, blocking the school board members who had yet to enter. It seemed that as long as they dared to take a step into the hall, these statues would not hesitate to launch an attack. The hundreds of statues that were still on the shelves seemed to be ready to jump down and fight as soon as there was an empty space below.
