Because of Elwyn's participation, the fragile balance between the two sides had been broken, and the situation was developing in a direction that was not in Lord Voldemort's favor.
Elwyn's current plan was to suppress the opponent and not give Lord Voldemort a chance to breathe.
But Lord Voldemort was not a fool and would not easily give them a chance.
Especially after the incident in Norway, where the statue of the evil god was damaged and he escaped with injuries, he dared not expose himself casually.
Dumbledore and the Order of the Phoenix needed time to prepare for the final battle, but Elwyn was not in a hurry. He also needed to find out the cards of Lord Voldemort and the evil god. Last time, when he forcibly used the "Silence" magic to damage the statue of the evil god, the magic stone left by Gryffindor was also seriously consumed.
Cracks appeared on the magic stone, and its brightness was obviously dimming. It might not be able to support him for too long.
This was not good news for Elwyn. His top priority was to collect the treasure keys left by the other founders.
But if they could force Lord Voldemort out for another battle, that would be the best. It would give them a greater advantage.
And they just happened to have such a thing to lure Lord Voldemort out. The prophecy ball was an irresistible temptation to Lord Voldemort.
As long as they planned it well and let him think that he had a chance, they could lure him out.
The ideal result was to defeat Lord Voldemort. If it did not work, they could also expose the fact that he had been resurrected, so that he would not dare to act rashly. Whether it was to explore the secret of the old wand or to complete the evil god's conspiracy, they would all be restrained.
Not to mention, Elwyn still had to go there to get the time converter, which was a very important tool.
Therefore, Harry knew about the Department of Mystery Affairs, which was in line with Elwyn's plan. He felt that it was necessary to give it another push.
Of course, these things still had to be hidden from Harry. Lord Voldemort could easily know the secret from his mind.
If it was accidentally leaked, it would not work!
While Elwyn was thinking about the whole thing, Hermione and the others were also discussing the information that Harry brought.
"Harry, you mean …" Ron whispered, "that weapon, the thing that the mysterious man is looking for, is hidden in the Department of Occult Affairs of the Ministry of Magic?"
Mrs Pins glanced at them, and walked straight past, her footsteps clattering softly.
"Should be. Harry whispered, "It's definitely that door. I've had that damned dream for more than a month. I can't be wrong. I should've thought of it. I saw that door when I went to the trial room with your father." Elwyn, do you remember? "
"Yes!" Elwyn nodded. "I remember that place!"
"Of course!" said Hermione disapprovingly.
"Of course what?" Ron asked impatiently.
"Think about it. Stogy Bodmore tried to break into the door of the Ministry of Magic. It must be that door. It doesn't seem like a coincidence!" Hermione said slowly. "But it's a little strange. Why did Stogy break in? Isn't he on our side?"
"I don't know!" Harry shook his head.
"He may have been cursed by the Soul Snatching Curse, or surrendered to Lord Voldemort. These are all possibilities." Elwyn said quickly. "But no matter what, there is something very important in the Department of Occult Affairs. Lord Voldemort wants it."
"I heard my uncle talk about that place!" Elaine also interrupted. "He said that it is a place that the Ministry of Magic specializes in collecting ancient and legendary magic items. There is unimaginable power in it. But most of those items have lost their magic power, or have very strict conditions. They can't be used by the current spellcasters, so they are placed there. "
"Could it be related to the Evil God?" Hermione suddenly asked.
"I don't know, but it's hard to say. The Ministry of Magic might be secretly developing something there."
"Do you think Umrich knows? She is the Senior Vice Minister of the Ministry of Magic!" Ron thought of this.
"Even if she knows something, she won't say it. It's good enough that she doesn't cause us trouble!"
"I know the Soul Snatching Curse and the Mind Snatching Spell. Do you need me to use them on her?" Elaine said, revealing her two canine teeth. "I'm already very familiar with these two spells. I can make her tell me everything she knows. Leave everything to me!"
With a bang, Elwyn knocked on her head again. This was not a spell that a student should use.
"Don't cause trouble. Didn't I tell you not to provoke Umrich?"
"But she offended me. Did you forget this morning's class? Before she causes trouble for me, we should strike first."
Elaine was really used to violence. Her head was full of dangerous thoughts. It seemed that he had to keep an eye on her to prevent her from causing any big trouble.
But considering the environment she grew up in, it was not surprising that she could think this way.
This was already a weakened version of the vampire. If Keresis was here, this idea might be even more dangerous.
Elwyn did not need to use the Soul Snatching Curse on Umrich because he already knew what he needed to know. It was just that it was not the right time to say it yet.
He wanted to use Harry and the Prophecy Ball to lure Lord Voldemort to the Ministry of Magic. Only in this way could he enter legally and trick Lord Voldemort.
"Harry, are you really okay?" Hermione looked at Harry worriedly. He did not look well.
Harry rubbed his forehead as if he was trying to iron it. He looked very painful.
"Yeah, I'm fine!" He put down his hands. They were shaking. "Just a little. How should I say this? I really don't like the Brain Seal Technique. I dislike the way Snape taught me even more. It's too violent. He forcefully inserted it into my body. It seems like he's afraid …"
"In theory, what he did was actually effective." Elwyn said. "But it's a little too rushed for his first training to be so intense. We can't rule out the possibility that he wanted to use this method to figure out what you're thinking."
"I think anyone would feel weak after being attacked in the brain again and again." Hermione said sympathetically. "Let's go back to the common room. It'll be more comfortable there."
But the common room was noisy. Fred and George were demonstrating the joke shop's latest product.
"Headless Hat!" George shouted. "Two Garen's for one. Everyone, please look!"
Fred waved a pointed hat decorated with pink feathers. He smiled and put the hat on his head.
For a moment, he looked very silly. Then the hat and head disappeared together!
A few girls screamed. The others burst out laughing.
"Take off your hat!" George shouted. Fred's hand searched his shoulder for a while.
His head reappeared. The pink feathered hat was taken off.
"Wow, how did he do that?!" Ron looked at the hat in shock.
"That seems interesting. He made his own head disappear!" Elaine said. She also looked at the pink hat in Fred's hand. "I've heard of this story. There was a knight who lost his head. He kept looking for his own head. If he found someone's head that he fancied, he would cut it off and bring it home."
"That's just a legend!"
"It's not a legend. There really was a Headless Knight who came to my house!" Elaine said seriously. Her wine-red eyes swept across the faces of Elwyn, Harry, Hermione, and Ron. "I saw it with my own eyes. It was a knight in black armor. His whole body was covered in black smoke. He held a head in his right hand. The skin that was exposed was like moldy cheese. He had a big mouth and huge compound eyes like a fly. He kept looking for his next target …"
"It can't be real, right?" Ron stopped laughing. He looked at Elaine in fear.
"Of course it's real. If you meet him, be careful of your head!" Elaine said. "He's looking for a replacement!"
When Ron turned around in panic, Elwyn knocked Elaine's head again.
"There's no such thing as a Headless Knight. Don't scare people!" he whispered.
"How do you know I'm not telling the truth?!" Elaine said straightforwardly. She looked at Elwyn with a playful smile.
"Because I saw you laughing!" Elwyn curled his lips. This guy was really funny!
