Chapter 355 "Hundred Points"

Dumbledore is working together with them. Sean's eyes turned serious, and his expression flicked under the light of the fire on the street.

Because of this, the descendants of the Calchas family died under the spell. He obviously knew more, but the spell's power did not allow him to say more.

According to Sean's understanding, contract spells are not common. People who can use this kind of spell to keep secrets should have a certain status or knowledge.

However, it is worth noting that the many unspoken secrets may be the real important point; in other words, this descendant of the Calchas family may know the whole story. Combined with Dumbledore's strange actions during this period, he is already certainly cooperating with someone else.

What is the purpose of the cooperation?

Sean couldn't help thinking of another person, Grindelwald.

Did Dumbledore really want to catch Grindelwald?

The thoughts that came to mind made Sean feel a little heavy. He still believed that Dumbledore would not become the next Dark Lord, but it was not a good sign that he was working with another force.

What exactly does Dumbledore want to do? Sean frowned tightly.

He had guessed before that Dumbledore might want to find another way to solve the thing in Sean's body. But according to the current situation, Sean's own suppression is enough. Both Dumbledore and Grindelwald taught him some things.

Dumbledore told Sean that when he and Grindelwald investigated together, he believed that Sean was a descendant of a wizard a thousand years ago.

The thing inside him will explode completely before Sean graduates, and he will become the person responsible for destroying the world.

Sean remembers very clearly that at that time, he and Dumbledore talked about the mysterious man who stole the key to the Misty Land, and the Returner came from there. It is almost certain that the mysterious man who stole the key and the Returner are the same person.

At that time, Sean asked Dumbledore why the mysterious man did this, and Dumbledore replied that he might want to release the thing in Sean in advance to destroy the world.

Of course, Sean has always felt that the villain, whose dream is to destroy the world, has no dreams. Because what can they do with a world that is already destroyed?

He has always believed that the so-called destruction of the world is to achieve a deeper purpose.

But now, Dumbledore actually cooperated with a Returner who wanted to release it, which Sean couldn't understand.

Whatever the future holds, the world is going in a chaotic direction.

After a series of things, the entire wizarding world was under high pressure. Hogwarts was still in good condition because Sean drove Umbridge away. Even so, the students felt that the living and learning environment was much more depressing.

According to Lupin's news, the situation outside is way worse. Those wizards who live alone are strictly prohibited from going out at will, and wizard families who live with Muggles are afraid to enter the wizarding world.

Large-scale prison breaks, terrorist accidents that attack Muggles, and many more are coming. Dumbledore has not done anything so far, at least on the surface. Except for the long-distance time travel that caused a serious disturbance, which Sean believes Dumbledore did time travel.

If Dumbledore could reveal his plan to Sean, he wouldn't be so acting like now. What's more, why did he choose to cooperate with them]?

Isn't Grindelwald a good accomplice?

Sean didn't think there was another wizard comparable to Grindelwald in this world, except for Dumbledore himself.

Sighing deeply, Sean raised his head and looked at the night sky.

Pudding made a sound. He had already dealt with the creatures at this time because Sean told him to capture it alive, so Pudding held back. The creatures had already fallen into a pool of blood, and Pudding had all broken their limbs.

At this moment, its silver-white fur kept flickering, trying to turn translucent. However, after the limbs were broken, it was obvious that it didn't have much strength left.

"You don't need to kill them. Maybe they can give me some information." Sean poured a healing potion on the creatures and some Draught of the Living Dead.

He threw them into the ring.

"Help me keep an eye on these two creatures. If they recover too quickly, petrify them."

"Okay." The Basilisk nodded in Sean's favor. He thought he would come out to do some things tonight, but he was not needed.

The flames in Hogsmeade town were finally extinguished. Not only the professors in the castle volunteered to come, but also the Guards who hadn't shown up for a long time.

The Guards arrived with dementors.

Professor McGonagall was furious, "Is this how you guard Hogwarts?! Mr. Hughes!"

Hughes, the leader of the group, was a middle-aged man who had a connection with the Aikens last time. He explained, "There are also wizards fleeing from the periphery. We must drive them away."

It was impossible to tell who was in that pile of corpses, but the only thing that could be seen clearly was that they were all wizards in black robes. Hughes looked up. His pupils shrank.

"Sir, if you guys were distracted by them, how did the attackers get past the Guards' defense and attack Hogwarts?"

He maintains his composure, "Because we need to catch them, and it needs more time to do that."

Sean directly interrupted him, "But now that the attack has already occurred, do you think capturing them alive is more important than the lives of Hogsmeade residents and Hogwarts students?"

"Of course not, Wallup. Please be careful with your words." Hughes warned him.

Sean walked over through the pool of blood. Hughes stared at him and clenched the wand in his hand. He was looking at Sean, who was getting closer.

Sean leaned closer to his ear and whispered, "Don't back down, my friend. I know who you are working for, and what happened tonight has nothing to do with you. What a shame that a person like you is wearing this kind of uniform. Are you expecting me to attack you?"

Hughes didn't speak.

Sean continued to say, "You want to find a legitimate reason to arrest me, right? After all, there is no evidence that the Guards assisted those in attacking Hogwarts."

"I don't understand what you are talking about." Hughes didn't change his expression.

"The main target is Aurelius. The other optional target would be removed once a chance can be seen, right?" Sean smiled.

"Your name is Hughes, right? Hughes, let me give you some advice. Stop playing these child play, I'm really tired and don't want to play with you guys. Just attack me directly. I am waiting for you."

Hughes glanced at him, the wand in his hand clenched and relaxed again.

"Wallup, everything the Guards do is to protect the world, and we will continue to follow the rules to guard Hogwarts."

Sean sneered, "Wow, you're relentless, are you? I'm looking forward to the moment when the Guard's skin is pulled off. It seems that It'll be so soon. Take care."

After speaking, he left without looking back at him.

"Let's go, Professor. Mr. Hughes is nice. He decided to lead his people to stay here and clean up the mess. Oh, Mr. Flume, how are you? Let's go, Madam Pomfrey must have already started preparing the medicine for you."

Professor McGonagall glanced at the pile of corpses and glanced at the Guards. She didn't say much and called the residents to live in Hogwarts for a while. After a large group of people moved from the Hogsmeade, a member of the Guard behind Hughes walked up to him.

"Captain, why don't you do it? He's a child in the third grade who killed so many people. Although he is a dark wizard, we can take him back for interrogation according to the law and order."

Hughes' said softly, "Don't be stupid. Go clean up Hogsmeade and wait for new orders."

"Understood…"

When they dispersed, Hughes looked in the direction where Sean and the others were leaving. A third-grade student took down so many people in front of the Hogwarts vice-principal, partly to frighten other Guards members and partly to tell Professor McGonagall what he meant.

Professor McGonagall's silence represents Hogwarts' attitude. If the Guards dare to use any excuse to arrest Wallup, the entire Hogwarts will directly stand against the Guards.

Moreover, Hughes just felt the killing intent of that young man.

He felt that he and the people behind him might have made some mistakes in judgment.

Sean Wallup is not like Dumbledore; he is gentle and polite on the surface, but he is scheming something. He is a replica of Grindelwald.

At this time, he felt a trace of warmth in his arms; Hughes pulled his tie that was too tight and quietly took out a piece of paper.

Words emerged, "Change of plans. Wallup's arrest plan has been canceled. Two people were pushed out to be accused of collaborating with the enemy in today's attack. The Guard's mission was given to the Aurors and all our people needed in the headquarters."

Hughes frowned, but he didn't say anything. After the note was burned, he joined to clean up Hogsmeade.

----

On the way back to the castle, Sean and Professor McGonagall walked together.

To Sean's surprise, Professor McGonagall spoke before he could organize his words.

"Mr. Wallup, have you counted how many lives you have taken tonight?" She said in a stern tone.

Sean shook his head silently.

"Mr. Wallup, although your ability is beyond the imagination of many people, and your way of thinking is far more mature than your peers. But," Professor McGonagall pushed his glasses, "You are still a third-grade student, and I am still your Professor. I have to remind you not to go over, let alone kill many people."

Sean took a deep breath, stopped, and looked at Professor McGonagall, "Professor, I assure you, I will not kill many people for nothing. I know what I am doing, but most of the time, my methods are indeed brutal."

Professor McGonagall looked into his eyes; she hesitated for a moment and finally sighed.

"It's true that you shouldn't stop when you face those people. I completely understand your actions. But I must admit that when I saw my student standing on the corpses pile, my heart shook."

"But you still chose to support me." Sean laughed.

Professor McGonagall replied, "Those bastards, I will definitely not let them have a good time in their life, given what they did tonight."

"I don't think they will tonight," Sean shrugged.

"I hope so," Professor McGonagall looked away, and her voice softened, "This is also the reason why I chose to support you."

"No matter what you do, you protected Hogwarts and many people's lives. When you did these things, you never hesitated. This is something I admire from you. You are fighting for others and protecting the innocent. Hogwarts will not let her children down, and we will always stand behind you."

Professor McGonagall laughed. She led Sean towards the castle and said, "There are still a lot of things to be done tonight. My God, things are going to be busy later."

When approaching the gate of the castle, Professor McGonagall slowed down again, and she turned her head with a smile on her face.

"Oh, I almost forgot. Sean, Ravenclaw earns 100 points for your action."
