The condition of the sewers was far worse than he had imagined. In addition to the constant dripping of slime, there was also a lot of garbage underfoot, which seemed to trip and hinder passersby.
Not to mention the snakes, insects, and rodents that live here; if they occasionally appear at your feet or on the walls, they will cause the Aurors and strikers to become overly vigilant.
A series of crackling sounds rang out, like the sound of glass or some other object breaking.
Then came a faint scraping sound. Grevis immediately became alert, tilting his head slightly to remind the other Aurors and strikers, "Pay close attention! Protection Charm! Protection Charm!"
Upon hearing the order, the Aurors and the strikers nodded repeatedly and replied, "Understood!"
Perhaps because they were too nervous, their vision became even more blurry, and their already damp clothes seemed to be completely soaked, sticking to their skin with the sweat.
“Merlin’s beard!” Grevis twisted his neck, trying to get his collar back in place so it wouldn’t stick to his neck. “Why is it so hot?”
"Fluorescent Blink!" The two Aurors flicked their wands forward, and a ball of light burst from the tip of their wands.
At the same time, Grevis seemed to realize something, and with a chilling aura, he shouted sharply, "Protection Charm! Cast the Protection Charm on everyone! Protect everyone!"
The light flew far away, and before it lost its brightness, it reflected a fine scale.
Suddenly the sewers plunged into darkness, then suddenly brightened again, with a bewitching orange color rapidly spreading in all directions.
It was a huge fire dragon's head, its mouth wide open with sharp teeth, and scorching dragon breath gushing out from its throat.
……
The streets of Brownsville trembled, and a rumbling sound came from deep underground, like a roar from the depths of hell.
A deafening explosion rang out, the street shook even more violently, and one manhole cover after another was blown off.
Almost at the same time, countless crimson pillars of fire shot into the sky, and the impact caused cracks to appear in the street.
The pillars of fire greedily expanded along the cracks until all the pillars of fire converged together, like the tongue of a fire demon from hell, constantly licking and devouring everything around them;
Thick smoke quickly spread, mixed with sewage and debris, flying everywhere and damaging surrounding buildings. Pedestrians on the street scattered in terror, screams echoing everywhere.
The shockwave from the explosion swept across the street like a colossal wave. Windows shattered, and shards of glass rained down with a crisp cracking sound.
The cars parked on the street were shaken, and the alarms went off one after another, their sharp sirens echoing in the air as if they were shouting silently.
As the flames spread, the power lines on the street were ignited, sparks flew everywhere, and the power lines twisted and turned in the air like wildly dancing snakes.
The explosion in the sewer ignited the surrounding area, causing a larger fire. The streets, now dark and without power, were completely shrouded in thick smoke and flames.
……
Those chickens that had been struck by disaster but had not yet lost consciousness suddenly heard a deafening roar.
A fierce wind swept out from the sewers, and a fire dragon soared into the sky. Its black scales reflected a dazzling firelight, causing the chickens to lose their senses for a moment.
The fire dragon circled in the air, emitting a deafening roar, as if asserting its dominance;
Seemingly having discovered the still-conscious chickens, the fire dragon flapped its wings violently and swooped straight down to the ground, its breath already brewing in its gaping maw.
As if venting its anger, the fire dragon spewed out its dragon breath, setting the entire community ablaze and plunging it into a frenzied bonfire party that headed straight for death.
After setting the community ablaze, the fire dragon sneezed, still feeling unsatisfied. It glanced at the more bustling city center in the distance, then immediately flapped its wings and flew away.
……
After the fire dragon left, several vortexes appeared on the devastated streets;
A group of Aurors and strikers emerged from the vortex, some stumbling and falling to the ground;
They were all injured, and many of their clothes were completely burned, revealing their charred skin.
Grevis was also covered in dust and dirt, his robe almost torn. He looked around at the street, his face ashen and icy.
One of the strikers asked, "Chief, what should we do now? Many of them are seriously injured."
"Take them to get treatment! I'll go check other places!" Grevis ordered briskly, then disappeared into the vortex.
He first went deep into the community to find the enforcers and Aurors responsible for hunting down the werewolves. "How many escaped?"
"Two!" one of the Aurors exclaimed, still shaken. "We subdued the five werewolves first, and were planning to take down the two others..."
He pointed to the damaged window in the distance, "Then there was a sudden explosion outside, which affected us as well. The two werewolves took advantage of the chaos and jumped out of the window to escape!"
Grevis demanded, "Why didn't you chase them? They hadn't transformed yet; they should have been easy to deal with!"
Auror said with some helplessness, "The fire dragon just happened to pass by, and they went crazy, jumping right onto the fire dragon's back... They were completely reckless!"
Grevis sighed. "Let's go back! Take these werewolves to the safe house!"
"Director, what should we do here?" Auror hesitated, "It's already caused such a huge impact..."
"There's no way to salvage this!" Grevis said helplessly. "With the werewolf and the fire dragon appearing together, all we can do is try our best to make amends..."
"Chasing after a fire dragon flying in the sky won't be easy... We'll have to deal with the werewolves first... Let's take care of the immediate problem!"
"Chief, what if other werewolves are hiding in the slums..." Auror hesitated, "...and there are fire dragons there too?"
"Let's deal with the immediate problem first!" Grevis emphasized again. "I'll go check other places!"
What Auror was talking about was also what he was worried about.
The situation did indeed take a turn for the worse. Fire dragons appeared in the area where the werewolves were hiding, and these fire dragons also caused explosions, setting the slums ablaze...
Chapter 94 dragged them all down with it
Snapped!
A vortex appeared.
Liam Grevis returned to Woolworth Building, exhausted from his earlier exertion. He accidentally stumbled through the revolving door and entered the hall of the Magical Congress.
He looked up at the large clock, whose hands had shifted and were now steadily pointing to the red "emergency" zone.
The threat level of his magic exposure rose to the highest level, making him feel even more uncomfortable, and he almost stumbled and fell.
A front desk wizard, as if he had been waiting for this moment, helped him up. "Mr. Grevis, you look terrible."
Grevis is indeed in very poor condition right now. The repeated use of Apparition has left him mentally disoriented and on the verge of vomiting.
In some cases, the nail has even separated, leaving a piece of the nail behind. My index finger is now in excruciating pain.
What pained him even more was the current situation of the Aurors and the strikers;
Because of the fire dragon's attack, the Aurors and strikers suffered heavy losses, making them seem somewhat inadequate in dealing with the werewolves under the full moon;
If it weren't for a group of animals that suddenly appeared, distracting some of the werewolves and reducing the pressure on the Aurors and the strikers, he couldn't imagine how heavy the casualties would have been to fight these werewolves.
It was precisely because of this that he was able to catch his breath and buy time to return to the Magic Congress to see if there were any new solutions.
"It's alright!" Grevis waved his hand and cast a simple healing spell on his index finger. "You'll be staying here. Is there anything... the Chairman has planned for you?"
“Yes!” The receptionist nodded. “The chairman said that if you come back, you can go to the Auror’s office to find him.”
"Is there anything else?" Grevis pressed. "For example, does the Chairman have any current strategies?"
“I don’t know either…” The front desk wizard shook his head helplessly. “The chairman asked me to stay here, not only to wait for you, but also to meet up with the Fitchburg Flying Sparrows and the Sweetwater All-Stars.”
"Quidditch team?" Grevis frowned, unsure why they were doing this.
He couldn't think straight right now; whenever he tried, his head felt foggy. "I'm going up now!"
……
Benjamin Grevis stood before a metal map depicting the entire city of New York, with increasingly glowing areas indicating a growing concentration of magical activity within the city.
Currently with him are the Tritops family from Ohio, Babajid Akimbad, representing the Animagus International Conference and the International Federation of Wizards...
There were even people from Hogwarts, a couple who were still students;
There are no staff members of the Magic Congress.
In response to the sudden appearance of several fire dragons and the werewolves rampaging through the city streets, the Magic Council headquarters has mobilized all its personnel.
Wizards from other states responded, but it will take them considerable time to reach the area and begin rescue efforts.
With the war years over and a series of reforms by the Magic Congress, they were no longer as closely united as they had been fifty years ago.
“Uncle…Chairman…” Liam Grevis entered the Auror’s office and, seeing it filled with unfamiliar wizards, immediately changed his address.
"Make way..." came Scott Tritops' voice from behind him.
Scott Tritops walked into the Auror office and went straight to Vizet, saying, "The potion has arrived, and we can begin operations at any time."
Liam Grevis opened his mouth, first glancing at the nodding Vizet, then looking at Benjamin Grevis, the president of the Magical Congress, "What's going on now?"
"Liam, you're back!" Benjamin Grevis turned around, his brows furrowed with a hint of helplessness. "How's the situation outside?"
Liam Grevis quickly reported, "The appearance of a group of animals helped our people control the werewolf."
He suddenly realized something, rubbed his throbbing temples, and looked at Akinbad beside him, "Are those animals your people?"
Akinbad nodded. "After Animagus transforms, it will be immune to the effects of werewolf syndrome even if attacked by werewolves."
Liam Grevis quickly asked, "What about the fire dragons? Can the flying Animagus...hold them off?"
Akinbad shook his head. "Not at least not at this stage... Let Mr. Lovegood say it!"
Vizette picked up the conversation, saying, "So we prepared a second plan to use them to contain the fire..."
Before he could finish speaking, the receptionist rushed in, panting, and said, "Chairman! The players from the Fitchburg Flying Sparrows and Sweetwater All-Stars have arrived."
