Hogwarts: From Luna's House to Godhood Through Intense Competition

“I didn’t say anything…” Dumbledore shook his head, turned slightly to the side and raised his head to look in the direction of the Phoenix Patronus.

He waved his wand again, and the large patch of dark clouds within the Hogwarts area seemed to be stirred by something, its color lightening considerably.

The sky over the distant Dementors' location grew even darker, as if countless inks had been poured into the clouds, staining the area a deep, dark black.

There were three striking silver lights in that area, but as the lightning and thunder resumed, the three silver lights were well concealed and no longer appeared so conspicuous.

Hermione and Ron came running up, panting, looking at Harry on the stretcher with worried expressions.

Hermione quickly asked, "Professor McGonagall, Headmaster Dumbledore, what's wrong with Harry?"

Ron stammered, "Harry should... he should be alright, right? With Headmaster Dumbledore here, Harry will definitely be fine... right?"

Harry's teammates from both Quidditch teams gathered around and expressed their concern for him.

Dumbledore said, "Harry is fine, of course. He's been affected by too many Dementors, so I'll take him to the hospital so he can get some rest for the night."

Upon hearing Dumbledore's answer, everyone nodded in unison, their expressions more relaxed than before.

“You should go back to the Great Hall…have some hot chocolate to warm yourselves up,” Professor McGonagall said. “If you still feel a bit cold, then have some more hot chocolate.”

Chapter 206 The Great Guardian Operation

Vizette waved her wand, unleashing ancient magical power that instantly illuminated the doorway before her, revealing exquisite silver-blue patterns.

The door opened the next moment, revealing a wide corridor outside. He and Luna leaped forward, transforming into a golden eagle and a scops owl as they flew across the corridor.

After passing through caves and underground rivers, the end is a wall made of spiral bricks.

The two reverted to human form. Vizette took a step forward, waved her wand, and chanted the spell, "Open the walls!"

The spiral bricks slowly began to rotate, and a hazy blue-purple mist rose slowly, turning into an opening large enough for two people to pass through.

It was still pouring rain outside, and everything looked pitch black, with rainwater cascading down the edges of the cave entrance.

Protected by the water and fire immunity spell, the two crossed the cave entrance and returned to the ground. The sky above was indeed pitch black.

"Give me directions!" Vizet tossed his wand and cast a directional charm. The wand quickly adjusted its position in the air, its tip pointing towards the Quidditch pitch.

Luna's voice rang out, "It's Dementors again!"

"So many at once?" Vizet looked toward the Quidditch pitch, where a large group of Dementors were flying in the air.

Amidst the dark mass of Dementors, a few bright silver lights stood out; these were the guardian spirits summoned by the professors, driving away the Dementors.

Vizette frowned. "It feels like there are even more Dementors than when they attacked the train... Are they attacking the Quidditch pitch because of Sirius Black?"

"Or is there an even worse possibility? They simply want... the cheers and applause of a Quidditch match, which is why they've mobilized en masse..."

“But their existence only robs us of that joy…” Luna looked at Vizet, “Anyway, now is a good opportunity, isn’t it?”

Vizette understood Luna's meaning and nodded with a smile: "It is indeed a good opportunity."

Although Sirius Black has disappeared again, it's still a good thing to have acquired some Dementor Cloaks.

……

As Vizet finished speaking, a strong yet not dazzling silver light burst forth from the direction of the Quidditch pitch in the distance.

A phoenix guardian soared into the sky, instantly halting the swooping speed of the Dementors and driving them back into the air.

The Phoenix Patronus, relentless, flapped its wings and soared into the sky, continuing its pursuit of the Dementors and chasing them away from the Quidditch pitch.

"They're coming this way!" Luna waved her wand, drawing a circle in front of her. "Palmtops of Exorcism!"

Quite coincidentally, the direction in which the Phoenix Guardians drove away the Dementors was exactly the direction they were in.

When Luna waved her wand, Vizette was also waving her wand;

The two simultaneously cast the Patronus Charm, and the scops owl and golden eagle Patronus leaped from the tips of their wands and hovered beside them.

Instead of taking immediate action, they planned to wait until the Dementors got closer before launching an attack.

While waiting for the Dementors to arrive, Vizzet flicked her wand, causing the golden eagle guardian's feathers to flutter and its size to shrink considerably in an instant;

The fluttering silver feathers did not dissipate into the air; instead, they transformed into miniature golden eagle guardians, flying into Vizet's palm.

Following the same method as before, Vizette cast Ancient Magic: Throwing Mastery, granting the Mini Golden Eagle Guardian "ancient magical power nurtured over time."

……

Driven by the Phoenix Guardians, the group of Dementors drew closer to Vizzet and his companions, about to fly over their heads.

Such a huge group of Dementors released a chill that was enough to turn rain into ice pellets, which pelted the surrounding trees with a loud, clamorous sound.

Vizette and Luna exchanged a glance, and simultaneously raised their wands. The Golden Eagle Owl Guardian flapped its wings and soared into the sky at great speed, forming a triangle with the Phoenix Guardian.

The Phoenix Guardian paused for a moment, then, as if drawn by something, flapped its wings and drew a neat "O" shape in the air.

As the Phoenix Guardian drew a neat "O" shape, the surrounding weather became even more gloomy, as if a thunderbolt could strike at any moment.

“It seems Headmaster Dumbledore…” Luna chuckled softly, her smile radiant even through the dark clouds, “knows we’re here!”

“However, the three guardian deities are a bit conspicuous…” Vizette’s lips curled into a smile as well, “They might need some cover… to control lightning!”

Rumble!

As lightning flashed, the guardians burst forth with dazzling silver light. The Dementors, affected by the silver light, could only move closer to the center and then fly higher into the sky.

Several Dementors were the first to move, but before they could rise too high, several miniature golden eagle guardians appeared and excitedly burrowed into their arms.

The Dementors paused, for they had never encountered such a situation before;

Before anyone could react, the silver light exploded like lightning, and the Dementors vanished, leaving only their cloaks drifting in the wind to various parts of the Forbidden Forest.

Now was not the time to collect the "Dementor Cloak," so Vizzet raised his wand again, continuing to command the miniature golden eagle guardians to pounce on the Dementors.

Lightning flashed again, and several more "Dementor Cloaks" were blown away by the gale and drifted into the depths of the Forbidden Forest;

These Dementors seemed to finally come to their senses, or perhaps they realized the real danger, and scattered, trying to escape as much as possible.

The Phoenix Guardian unleashed astonishing speed, swiftly drawing an enormous "O" shape, forcefully halting the Dementors' first attempt to escape.

Vizette and Luna weren't idle either. The Horned Owl Guardian kept launching attacks, attracting the Dementors' attention, changing their movement direction, and helping the Mini Golden Eagle Guardian eliminate the Dementors.

Whether it was out of instinct or because more and more of their companions were disappearing, the Dementors also felt fear, which aroused their will to survive.

Compared to the initial horde of Dementors, the number of Dementors has now decreased by two-thirds;

Besides the Dementors destroyed by the Mini Golden Eagle Guardian, some Dementors broke through the encirclement and disappeared into the sky.

“That’s about it…” Vizet glanced at the Marauder’s Map, where several names had left the Headmaster’s Office.

These are all Auror names, mentioned in the Daily Prophet, responsible for overseeing the Dementors' searches and patrols.

They left the headmaster's office at this moment, presumably to explain the situation to Dumbledore and intend to return to continue monitoring the Dementors.

“Okay!” Luna replied, waving her wand to bring the owl guardian spirit back to her side.

A breach appeared in the encirclement, and the remaining Dementors immediately flew frantically through it, disappearing completely from Vizette and the others' sight...

Chapter 207 In the Rain, in the Cold, in the Warmth, the Guardian Angel Healing Spell

A short note appeared in Serena Pendragon's notebook: "Hey! Vizette, I've left the exact locations of those ruins in the map room."

Upon seeing this message, Vizette realized one thing—Serena Pendragon and her group had left without saying goodbye and departed from the map chamber.

The battle memories left behind by Serena Pendragon also indicate that she was a fiery and impulsive witch.

Wizette wasn't too surprised by this way of bidding farewell; it's very much in line with Serena Pendragon's usual style.

……

With the Dementors gone, the heavy rain finally came to an end;

The rain changed from a downpour to a drizzle, the raindrops from sharp silver needles to soft willow catkins, and the clouds from inky gray to leaden white, all in just a few breaths.

Vizette looked at the Dementors that were gradually turning into black dots and let out a long breath.

The fact that the number of Dementors has been reduced by two-thirds will undoubtedly have a significant impact on Cornelius Fudge.

Vizette is now curious about what Cornelius Fudge will do next after the number of Dementors has been drastically reduced.

More Aurors will be sent to Hogwarts in order to deal with the sudden attack from Sirius Black...

Or will they take other measures, such as restoring the number of Dementors?

During her interview with Rita Skeeter at the Magical Congress, Rita Skeeter mentioned an article she had written for The Quibbler—

【World-weary novel transfer station 99 2 85 9 3 87 】

Cornelius Fudge may have illegally "bred" Dementors, and only by increasing their numbers could they be tasked with searching all of England.

Perhaps before, this was just Xenophilius Lovegood's biased view of Cornelius Fudge;

But with so many Dementors gone in such a short time, Cornelius Fudge might actually do something like that.

Assuming Cornelius Fudge did this, as long as he makes good use of means such as the Daily Prophet to explain the pros and cons clearly, the wizarding public would still understand and support him to some extent;

If he chooses to secretly allow the Dementors to "reproduce," the problem will become much more complicated once the wizarding populace finds out, and it will most likely push him a big step into the abyss.

Even if it were just for the sake of hunting down Sirius Black, Cornelius Fudge could lose his ministerial position for this very action.

The History of Magic records that after Ignatius Taft became Minister for Magic in England, he planned to implement the "Dementor Breeding Program" during his tenure.
