The mastermind behind Hogwarts

Chapter 740 The Three Musketeers Split into Three Groups (Coming Soon)

Lockhart returned to Slytherin Castle.

Luke and Ingo warmly received Lockhart.

"Do you remember the first time I came to the castle?" Lockhart's face showed a hint of nostalgia. "You two were very resistant and hostile towards me back then! I'm talking about you, butler."

Ingo smiled without saying a word. Ever since the Fairy King was captured alive by Moriarty, Ingo had avenged his great grudge and his whole person had changed.

"To be honest, I really miss your shampoo with its wonderful fragrance," Ingo said with a smile.

Luke's expression changed; house-elves don't like washing their hair.

"That's the bird-snake egg yolk shampoo that the young master and I personally developed." Lockhart rolled his eyes, refusing to chat with them, and strode into Moriarty's room.

"Young Master, I've arrived!" Lockhart sat down opposite Moriarty. "What are your orders?"

Time was of the essence, so Moriarty cut to the chase: "We send our appeal to the Muggle government, asking them to help us find the whereabouts of Light and Gump."

Lockhart immediately straightened his back, his expression serious: "Has our final battle against the Immortal Organization begun?"

"Yes, I'm determined to end all of this." Moriarty looked into Lockhart's eyes.

This once-flashy novelist is now a world-renowned figure.

"Please take me with you, young master," the former novelist said solemnly. "I want to experience the magical sky."

"I'm at ease having you guard the Ministry of Magic," Moriarty explained. "We don't know if Gamp will attack the Ministry, so you'll have to stay there."

Lockhart, of course, would not disobey Moriarty's orders, and he promptly contacted his colleagues at the European Ministry of Magic.

Incidentally, the French Minister of Magic has become Madame Maxime.

"But..." Lockhart hesitated, "Young master, will Light go to Hogwarts? That thing is still at the school."

"Of course he will," Moriarty said with a chilling smile. "He can't delay any longer. He realizes I know him, and he doesn't have time to travel to parallel worlds and assimilate the other personalities!"

"The one racing against time now is not us, it's the light!"

This feeling was probably only felt by Moriarty and Hikaru.

The situation has completely reversed.

Light and Gamp were completely relegated to a passive position, while Moriarty completely seized the initiative.

All of this stems from the true identity of the light.

With this, Moriarty knew what Light would do next.

If Moriarty fails to guess the true identity, the situation will completely reverse, which would undoubtedly be a catastrophe for anyone.

Lockhart carried out the tasks assigned to him by Moriarty without fail.

European Aurors, using Muggle transportation, once again secretly gathered at the Ministry of Magic.

The Muggle regime also did a great job of searching more than 200 countries around the world, but found no trace of Light and Gamp.

Moriarty looked at the report from Lockhart; the magical AI had already calculated the hiding places of Light and Gamp.

"More than 200 national governments have conducted self-examinations of Guanghe and Ganpu."

"Only the Vatican failed to conduct its own self-examination."

"The classic process of elimination!"

Vatican City.

"It can only be the Vatican!"

Lockhart immediately said, "Please allow me to lead a raid on the Vatican."

"If that's the stronghold of Light and Gump, the Holy See must be under their control," Lilith voiced her opinion. "Is the Ministry of Magic's power insufficient?"

“But we also need to spare some of our strength to protect the Ministry of Magic and Hogwarts,” Jericho said loudly. “Don’t forget, Gump hates the current Ministry of Magic and is only after the Light Relics in Hogwarts.”

"In that case," Moriarty suddenly had a brilliant idea, "let's split up!"

"I will remain at Hogwarts, awaiting the light!"

"Lilith," Moriarty said, looking at his lover, "take your sister and help the Aurors guard the Ministry of Magic."

"And Jericho," Moriarty concluded, "you will lead a team to the Vatican to investigate. I'm certain it's deserted. Maintain constant contact."

"OK~" Jerry Kirby made a gesture. "I'll use the latest magic phone, and I'll choose the person, okay? I'm not questioning your judgment; the Vatican might be a trap."

"You look so much more handsome when you're serious than when you're showing off," Moriarty said, bumping fists with Jericho.

And so, Moriarty's most loyal friend left the makeshift meeting room to gather his companions.

"William, Leon, Saul, Percy, the Weasley brothers, come with me," Jericho called out. "I still prefer using the old folks."

"Hmm... plus Cedric and Draco! I'd still be willing to mentor those two."

"Oh, and you too!" Jericho strode toward Lionheart: "You're coming to the Vatican with me."

"I will aid the Ministry of Magic! I will defeat Gump!" Lionheart struggled, but he was like a chick in an eagle's claws.

"Believe me, you can defeat Gamp even if you go to the Vatican," Jericho said with no room for argument. "Besides, didn't you hear? Only Lilith's sisters can aid the Ministry of Magic!"

"If you want to end King Arthur's bloodline, I can introduce you to the best metamorphosis hospital in North America."

"Fuck, I'll be a good soldier, General." Lionheart obediently followed Jericho.

On the other side...

Moriarty and Lilith kissed goodbye.

He bent down to her golden hair and stunning face, kissed her rosy lips, and then pulled her into his arms.

Moriarty said softly:

"For someone like you who aspires to the supremacy of wizards, what could be more glorious than personally defeating Yurik Gamp?"

I'm giving you a chance.

Lilith pressed her body against her beloved's chest, and her heart became one with his.

I won't let you down.

After a deep kiss, Lilith left Moriarty's embrace and went to call for backup.

"Diana, Ishcher, Ventura," Lilith said, looking at them, "we're going to fight side by side."

Lilith had once harbored some reservations or jealousy towards them, but now, she took their hands and, under Narcissa's tearful gaze, walked out of Slytherin Castle together.

"Have we forgotten someone?" Lilith suddenly stopped in her tracks.

"Zhang Tianxue?" Ishcher asked.

"It's not her. She'll reunite with Moriarty and take care of settling her family." Lilith shook her head. "It's Violet! She's already a Blood Ancestor and is qualified to participate in the final battle."

"Oh dear," Queen Ventau exclaimed in surprise, "I forgot about that little girl."

"But it's alright, I'll use a vampire secret technique to have my mother possess me and let her meet us at the Ministry of Magic." Queen Ventura smiled and winked.

Diana asked curiously, "Little Violet is already a Blood Ancestor, how can you, the Blood Ancestor Grand Duke, still possess her?"

"Logically speaking, no," Queen Ventura laughed heartily, "but I can guarantee that little Violet is sleeping right now, and she's still that little vampire."

Queen Ventura patted her chest, and a surge of waves rose up.

The women waited for Queen Ventura, while Vivian left the castle to accompany Diana to the Ministry of Magic.

"Alright," Queen Ventura said three minutes later, her eyes filled with gold. "Let's go."

The women flew towards the Ministry of Magic once again.

At the same time.

Madame Maxime led a group of Aurors to Charles de Gaulle Airport in Paris, among whom were the Fleur de Lacourt sisters.

Violet flew away from Hogwarts Castle, her destination clearly the Ministry of Magic.

In the Vatican.

Light and Gamp stood on the tallest tower.

Gazing at the peaceful night.
