Before this, Elwyn had planned to talk to Dumbledore about this.
For a long time, he had been contacting the vampires passively, waiting for Keresis or Elaine to come to him.
Elwyn didn't know where they were, and the owl probably wouldn't work.
The place where the vampires were hiding was protected by magic, so it wouldn't be easily discovered by wizards or animals outside.
As for their base, Elwyn speculated that it should be somewhere in Northern Europe. Because Keresis once said that he had a conflict of interest with Kakarov and Demstrong, and he had suffered losses, which meant that their base must be within Demstrong's sphere of influence.
But the area was very large, and the vampires' whereabouts had always been hidden in the dark …
"All we can do now is wait, Elwyn, I believe they will take the initiative to contact us, we are the only ones who can help them!" Dumbledore said, "But there are some things we must take the initiative to do."
After Sirius left, his eyes turned to Hagrid and Mrs. Maxim.
"Hagrid, I want to talk to you about contacting the giants!" Dumbledore said, "Mrs. Maxim, if you want, you can also come to my office."
"No problem!" Hagrid said hurriedly, looking at Mrs. Maxim expectantly.
"Dumbledore, if the mysterious man really comes back, Bob and I will be your most loyal allies!" Mrs. Maxim said solemnly, "But before that, I have to know everything."
"I will explain everything to you!" Dumbledore said, and looked at Snape, "Well, Severus, you know what I want you to do, if you don't mind, if you are ready …"
"No problem." Snape said.
His face looked paler than usual, and his cold black eyes were shining with a strange light.
"Well then, good luck!" Dumbledore said, a trace of worry on his face.
Elwyn saw Snape leave without saying a word, as if he was prepared to die.
.....
After so many things had happened, the Hegemony Tournament naturally came to an end. No one was in the mood to continue the tournament or watch it.
In the warrior's territory, Cedric's whereabouts were unknown. No one knew where the vampires had taken him.
Dumbledore had already contacted his parents and explained the whole incident to them in detail.
Although Elwyn could be sure that Keresis would not kill him, the possibility of him turning into a vampire was very high.
Come to think of it, this result might be even worse. The world of magic was very biased against dark creatures like vampires.
If Cedric really became a vampire, it meant that he couldn't go back to school in Hogwarts. People wouldn't accept him.
Looking at how they treated Hagrid and Lupin, it was obvious that vampires were even more evil than half-giants and werewolves.
Krum was under Barty Crouch Jr's Soul Snatch Curse and was undergoing treatment. It would take a long time for him to recover.
During this time, he definitely wouldn't be able to participate in the tournament.
The Soul Snatch Curse was very damaging to the soul, so Madam Pangred suggested that he be transferred to St. Mungo's Magic Hospital for treatment.
Krum didn't know anything about what he had done under the lake. After recovering, he immediately apologized to Elwyn, Harry, Ron, Hibiscus Chinensis, Gabriel and the others.
Everyone forgave him. Ron seemed particularly touched and told Krum a lot about the Soul Snatch Curse.
He was attacked by Krum at the bottom of the lake, and then dragged into the water plants by the water monsters and bitten a few times. His body was covered with wounds. He was now bandaged like a mummy, but his emotions were still stable. However, he definitely could not continue to participate in the competition.
In Ron's own words, he was very glad that those things happened while he was unconscious.
Otherwise, he would have gone crazy watching himself being nibbled away bit by bit by Grindel.
Hibiscus Chinensis was the only warrior who was unscathed. She listened to Elwyn's advice and didn't go near the water.
However, she couldn't continue the tournament alone.
The Ministry of Magic also wanted the tournament to end as soon as possible. Foggy had completely broken off with Dumbledore and the Hogwarts. He was probably now discussing with his trusted subordinates how to deal with Dumbledore.
There were originally five referees. Mr. Crouch died. His bones were later dug up in front of Hagrid's cabin. The Transfiguration Curse used by Barty Crouch Jr. was very powerful, and everyone only found a pile of rotten bones.
Because of the magic and the loss of the bones, there was no way to restore his bones to their original state.
As for Kakarov, he just disappeared without a trace.
No one knew where he had gone, leaving behind a group of Durmstrong students who had no idea what to do.
The only one who opposed the cancellation of the tournament was Ludo Bagman. He made a bet with the Imps and bet everything on Ron, hoping to turn the tables. Naturally, he didn't want the tournament to end just like that, but no one listened to him.
After communicating with many parties, Dumbledore personally cast a spell to cancel the contract between the Goblet of Fire and the warriors. However, he said that the students of Durmstrong and Boothbottom were welcome to stay at the Hogwarts until the end of the semester.
Although the news of Lord Voldemort's return was not announced, the castle became inexplicably nervous after that day.
Elwyn had an illusion that he had returned to the days two years ago, when the snake monster was wreaking havoc in the castle.
Panic and distrust spread in the school, and all kinds of rumors spread at a very fast speed. There were hundreds of versions of what happened after Elwyn, Harry, and Cedric were taken away by the Door Key, and every one of them sounded like the truth.
Elwyn, Harry, and Ron stayed in the school hospital. Although they were fine now, Mrs. Pangred did not allow them to leave the hospital.
During this period, only Hermione, Corin, Weasley's family, and a few other people were allowed to visit them.
According to Hermione, Dumbledore said a few words to the whole school at breakfast the next morning.
He just asked everyone not to disturb Elwyn and Harry, and no one was allowed to ask them questions or pester them to talk about what happened after they were taken away by the Door Key.
Dumbledore did not intend to keep it a secret. He was ready to announce everything at the right time.
