Chapter 164 Where is the ship?

"So, later he is going to set off a massacre in the French magical community, and we will be included by him within this target." Dumbledore said in a deep voice, "He will definitely prevent us from using this opportunity to collude with the French resistance, thus causing him more trouble."

When he said this, almost all the senior members of the Order of the Phoenix gathered by his side.

The Weasleys, Moody, Kingsley, McGonagall, Flitwick, as well as Lily, Sirius and Lupin, who had been here from the beginning.

Kingsley asked calmly.

"So what do we do next? Should we go to France first?"

"Of course, we have to go to France, we can not let the Dark Lord wantonly slaughter those innocent people, and the interior of Britain has been firmly established by him, if we want to develop ourselves, we can only grow our own power on the outside."

Dumbledore said gruffly.

"But not yet, we still need to get some other help before we go to France."

The rest of the Order of the Phoenix all have stood up, they gathered around Dumbledore together.

Fawkes who was originally pretending to be sleeping on the branch of a tree not far away, as if sensing a call, waved his wings and landed on Dumbledore's shoulders.

Soon, on this seaside cliff, the wizards of the Order of the Phoenix all disappeared.

And in a distant place, a bonfire was dancing on the ground, and an old man with grey hair and a long black trench coat was sitting in a chair on the side.

The dancing fire floated in his eyes, and behind him, many elderly people who looked as old as they were, could not guess what their lord was thinking right now.

Soon, the sound of countless apparitions resounded through this area.

One after another, the wizards of the Order of the Phoenix landed on the ground, and at the forefront were led by none other than the calm-faced Dumbledore.

The old man sitting in front of the campfire looked up at him, the two of them looked at each other, no one spoke the first word, and the scene became a little cold for a while.

Because those standing behind the two old men, when looking at each other, their gazes can not help but bring some scrutiny and hostility.

The first to break this silence is the old man who is getting up from the chair, he extended a hand towards Dumbledore.

Just when Dumbledore's face showed a smile, the people behind the old man are showing a look of reluctance, the dark lord, who once conquered the whole of Europe before Voldemort took a step, and said in a cold voice.

"Before discussing other things, first pay me the bill for the wands in the first half of the year."

Jon quickly began to organize the works on Hogwarts the day after the voyage began.

Although the wooden ship did not need to be piloted, the overall organizational structure could not be left behind.

He let George as the first mate, Neville as the second mate, Hermione as the comptroller responsible for accounting, supervision and distribution of various supplies on board, Fred as the head sailor responsible for the basic discipline management of students, let a fourth-year girl named Eloise Midgen manage the galley, let second-year Colin Creevey as a lookout, responsible for observing sea conditions.

In fact, these are only the division of duties and titles, the reason for giving George as well as Fred such a position, is more actually for them to discipline themselves, out of the control of the professors, they will likely let go and play crazy.

And the most important of these is naturally Hermione's work.

After the inventory check, the storage room is rich in supplies, food resources are not lacking, and it is enough to maintain the normal life of all the people on board now for more than half a year, freshwater resources naturally will not cause trouble to those who are wizards.

The Water-Making Spell is not much of a complicated spell, basically, all students above the third grade know it, and the water summoned by this spell is normally drinkable.

There is also the problem of seasickness, and as expected by Jon, in the evening, after the excitement of most of the students had passed, more than twenty of them had symptoms of seasickness.

But there is no good solution to this, or rather there is no need to deliberately think of a way, as long as they vomit and retch behind they will always get used to it.

But this also temporarily led to half of the people on board these days having a look of breathlessness, mostly spending their time resting in their bedrooms, looking less energetic.

And Jon at this time was not idle, he must now start to think of ways to solve the first problem they will face after sailing.

That is, where are they going now?

There is a complete map of Britain on the wagon, and on the afternoon of the second day of the voyage, Jon and his first and second mates gathered in the common room and studied that map.

"I think there's a good chance we're out to sea from the west coast of northern England." George pointed his finger at the dot on the map of the seaward city of England 'Whitehaven', "I have the impression that during the day I saw signage very similar to this name, and then the direction in which the wagon moved forward should be one to the west, and there is a high probability that the sea we are now in is the Irish Sea! "

George said with conviction.

Jon followed the direction of his finger to look ahead, if we follow his words, then they are now sailing in the direction that should be directly opposite the Isle of Man.

But before his words could hardly sink in, Neville put a different argument to that.

"It's true that we could have been wandering the west coast of northern England during the day, but the wagon was travelling so fast that there was enough time in half a day for it to travel through many different places. By evening when you might have wandered off, George, we were not heading west, but east. That means we didn't enter the sea from the west coast, we should be on the east coast, and this sea should be the North Sea."

He pointed out the sea area between Britain and Denmark.

However, George did not seem to agree with his statement, he still feels that Hogwarts should not have left Britain, and is now wandering around in the sea between Ireland and the British Isles.

Two people who can not convince each other finally looked at Jon.

Jon actually has a headache at this time.

During the day, he was spending his energy trying to handle the Lethifold, how can there be time to determine where the wagon was, and in what direction it was running?

And the whole sea is endless, there is no place to compare, and they have no way to rely on the surrounding environment to determine the location.

Perhaps some of the veteran crew can rely on the stars to determine the location, but now on this ship, more than 20 people are suffering from seasickness, where can they find the veteran crew?

When they were frowning at this, Colin, who was in charge of observing the sea conditions, burst into the common room.

He was panting, with excitement and panic on his face.

"Captain Green! I, I found a cargo ship!"
