Chapter 1043 Tom's Backhand
Ilvermorny School of Witchcraft and Wizardry,
The auditorium was already empty. It was hard to imagine that earlier, students from four schools had gathered here for the Potions Tournament.
This can't be helped.
The scavengers suddenly attacked the U.S. Capitol, and all the Aurors stationed at the school also went to reinforce...
It seems inappropriate to continue the game at this time.
Most importantly, the headmaster, Eulaly Hicks, felt inexplicably uneasy tonight.
He stood alone at the entrance of the auditorium, looking at the darkness of the night, he could only bless in his heart:
"Hope the U.S. Capitol is okay!"
I don't know what's going on, but as time goes by, the ominous premonition becomes stronger.
Speaking of which... this kind of unease didn't just happen tonight. If it really had to be traced back, it had to come from four years ago when Dumbledore suddenly contacted him through the Phoenix Book.
The old man told him: Voldemort was resurrected, and he may have come to the United States, so he must be careful.
Since then, a series of things have happened without interruption:
The school team went to England to watch the Quidditch World Cup, and a wizard died in the team;
The snake tree bloomed suddenly, and began to wither; and the silence of New York;
The Scandal of Muggle President Clinton - "Secrets That Can't Be Tell in the White House Office"...
Plus, the Capitol was attacked tonight...
In just a few years, the United States seemed to have been cursed, and it became inexplicably chaotic.
Hicks sighed and hoped the night was okay.
He is old and can't stand "surprises".
This stimulus will come a few more times, it is estimated that his retirement ceremony and funeral will be held together.
But as if he wanted to slap his face, there was a sound of shoes rattling in the distance.
A tall, strong, bald-haired wizard ran over in a panic.
Hicks frowned slightly. Fontana had worked as a Defense Against the Dark Arts professor for 20 years, and he was calm when it came to major events.
Except for the last time Targaryen dumped his daughter, which made him lose his composure unexpectedly, other times, he was neither emotional nor angry.
And now so nervous...
Something must have happened!
Sure enough, as soon as Fontana spoke, Hicks felt that he had taken a big step forward from retirement.
"Principal, I found traces of the scavengers, and there are many of them. They touched the magic and are rushing towards Ilvermorny."
Hicks couldn't help rubbing his temples.
He figured it out, the attack on the Congress was just a pretense to lure the Aurors away so they could attack Ilvermorny.
What could be worth the effort of the scavengers here?
Only that abnormal snake tree!
As a wizard who came from Grindelwald's era, Hicks was also experienced in many battles. He quickly calmed down and began to issue orders:
"Notify all deans and organize students to leave the dormitory and hide in the magic protection cave.
Let Ozma, Aoun, and Corey lead the combat teams to climb the three tallest towers.
There is a wide view and a favorable position for magic. "
He looked at Fontana again, and said seriously: "You find the professors from the other three schools and ask them to fulfill their promises and enter the playground.
We need someone to organize and guard the entrances of the various passages into the school..."
"Yes, principal!" Fontana turned and left.
Hicks breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he had the foresight to hold a potion tournament and attract many helpers.
Otherwise, tonight is really not so calm!
With these people around, the snake is safe.
Not to mention the Scavenger, even if Voldemort came in person, he would not be able to take the snake wood away.
He, Headmaster Ilvermorny, said it!
……
……
in the school,
All the professors are scattered at this entrance according to the principal's order.
Babuling was no exception. The task she received was to arrange a super defensive magic for the school.
She had changed back to William's appearance a long time ago, and she was heading towards the library, ready to find a spare time and notify William to come back.
She stopped suddenly and looked towards a certain corner.
A wizard appears, and Tom hides in the dark again.
He said in a vicissitudes of tone: "Targaryen, I need you to do something for me now."
Babling did not agree, but asked cautiously:
"Have you obtained the prehistoric mysteries?"
Back then, when Tom sought her out, he used prehistoric mysteries as bait.
She pays attention to this matter now, which can be regarded as maintaining her personality.
Tom said without hesitation: "Of course, I have already got that power.
After completing the task I entrusted to you, I will naturally follow the agreement to show you the lost power. "
Babling sneered inwardly, Tom has some acting skills, but he must be lying.
After all, she had already asked Tyene to take William to the Capitol.
With William around, Babling didn't believe Tom could get that power.
At least not so fast!
But Babuling had no expression on her face, she just asked knowingly:
"What do you want me to do this time?"
Tom smiled slightly, his demeanor was mysterious and conceited.
"I want you to take that snake tree from Ilvermorny!"
Babling was silent, not expecting such an idea from Tom.
"The school has done a lot of protection, I'm afraid it will be difficult for me alone..."
"I know, so I brought the scavengers to attack." Tom said in a low voice:
"This can keep away a lot of wizards."
"That's not enough." Babling shook her head and said, "Principal Hicks held a potion tournament and summoned wizards from three schools.
These guys are all in the fight now, and the scavengers you bring are no match at all. "
Ilvermorny originally had four layers of protection, but now it just turned the Aurors away, but it wasn't enough.
But Tom suddenly smiled smugly: "I know, so... I have already reserved my hands."
"Wagadu's leading professor was controlled by me with the Imperius Curse.
Under my orders, the teachers and students of Waggadu have started causing chaos and attacking other wizards. "
Babling cast a deep look at Tom.
As expected of an intelligent Dark Lord, he is just different from a certain powerful socket man.
Attract the Aurors first, then let the Scavengers attack.
And there's Waggadu's undercover, starting to create chaos.
This eliminated most of Ilvermorny's defensive measures.
At this time, the school's protection measures for the snake wood are already very weak.
If Tom lets the "Targaryen" who has been lurking for a long time do it by surprise, no one will think of this move.
The plan is really wonderful.
Babling discovered that it was William who knew Tom.
In his words:
At this time, it is right to leave any problem to Tom. No matter how tightly protected Ilvermorny is, Tom can always think of a solution.
But the problem suddenly became simple.
Slytherin's wand must be given to Tom, but before handing it to him, he must first get it.
Babling was still thinking about how to get the wand first, but Tom delivered it to her door automatically.
She imitated the mantra of "buy oranges" that William often told her, and said playfully:
"I'm going to get the snake tree, you just stand here, don't move around."
……

(Thanks to "Little Lion Duck" for the big reward.)
