Hogwarts: From Selling White Peppers to Becoming a God

Chapter 413 Conflict

Jacqueline and the others were discovered almost as soon as they entered the room.

There were too many people in the Capitol. To avoid suddenly appearing next to a Muggle, they didn't use Apparition and instead barged in through the main entrance again.

The moment the gate opened automatically without any wind, the guards in the monitoring room, who had been watching all the movements, immediately reported the situation.

"Damn it, they're in! I can't see them!" one officer said.

"Protect the members of parliament!" The security captain arrived at the fire control box, smashed the glass, and pressed a red button. The alarm immediately sounded throughout the entire Capitol building, and at the same time, all the smoke detectors were triggered, and water began to spray everywhere.

Jacqueline was startled by the sudden alarm and then drenched in water, which made her somewhat flustered. The illusion spells on their bodies also became unstable under the washing of the water.

An officer in the corridor suddenly saw a strange, chaotic patch of colors flashing under the rain curtain. He immediately ducked behind a corner and shouted, "I see them! They're in the first-floor corridor! Their invisibility has failed!"

"Intruders! Remove your disguises! Or I'll shoot!"

"They've found us!" a young wizard cried. "Jacqueline, what do we do?"

"The Prime Minister is having a meeting on the second floor, and then Apparition appears!"

This time they finally did their homework and found out where the president held meetings.

After Jacqueline finished speaking, she immediately Apparated to the second floor. When they were searching for the president, they had searched the entire building. Now that they had been discovered, they didn't need to worry about anything anymore.

The illusion spells on them had worn off. When the guards turned around from the corner with their guns, they saw several strange figures in black robes suddenly twist and disappear from sight, which made them widen their eyes in surprise.

Superpowers really do exist in this world?!

In the second-floor conference room, the Prime Minister and several cabinet members hid under the table. The head of security, hearing the report through his earpiece, immediately shouted, "They're here! Prepare for battle!"

Several gunshots suddenly rang out outside the door, indicating that the guards in the outer corridor had engaged the enemy.

"Gerson is injured!" someone exclaimed.

"Use armor to protect yourself!" a woman's voice said.

Then came a series of incomprehensible shouts, like some kind of incantation, followed by a cry of alarm, "Magic! They can use magic! Requesting backup, please..."

With a loud "BOOM!", the door was blown open.

"Fire!" the guard captain roared, and a barrage of gunfire erupted in the room. However, several desks floating near the doorway somehow managed to block all the bullets. The heavy desks were then thrown over, forcing the guards to dodge to the side.

"Blazing flames!" A burst of flames shot out from nowhere, directly hitting one of the guards in the face. The guard screamed in pain as blisters appeared on his face.

"Bang!" Suddenly, a grenade thrown by a guard exploded near the doorway, accompanied by a scream, "My leg! My leg!"

"Kostin! Damn it!" Jacqueline's armor charm blocked the aftershocks of the grenade explosion, but Kostin was unlucky. He was standing right next to the grenade and was hit directly. His armor charm was not enough to withstand this level of attack. His defenses were breached, and one of his legs was riddled with metal shrapnel. He was in so much pain that he almost fainted.

"Damn Muggles!" Jacqueline was furious. This whole thing had been going wrong from the start. These stupid Muggles, who were supposed to be completely at their mercy, had repeatedly caused trouble. Now they had even injured a wizard!

Damn it! These guys are even worse than Squibs! They should just obediently be wiped out like goblins!

With that thought, she raised her wand and uttered, "Blazing Plague!"

What a load of bull, what a load of bull, what a load of bull, Muggle! May they all die under the Fiery Blaze!

Jacqueline unleashed the Fiendfire spell, grabbed the still screaming Kostin, and Apparated away.

……

Meanwhile, outside the Quirinal Palace, countless special police officers had surrounded the presidential palace.

Above, two armed helicopters were circling overhead, and several high points in the distance had been occupied by snipers who were closely monitoring the movements inside the presidential office.

"People inside, you are surrounded. Put down the president, and we can let you leave," the negotiating expert's voice came through the helicopter's loudspeaker.

Inside the president's office, the curtains were drawn tightly. Four young men in black robes were holding a middle-aged man with a bruised and swollen face between them, with one of them pointing a small wooden stick at the man's temple.

"Release Blatt! Or I'll blow your president's head to smithereens!" the young wizard shouted.

But sitting opposite them was a man in a black suit, his left arm around the neck of the wizard named Blatt, and a pistol in his right hand, also pressed against the other man's head.

"Release the president first, my bullets are faster than your spells!" The president's bodyguards said coldly, seemingly not caring about the president's life at all.

Previously, the wizards had easily infiltrated Quirinal Palace, which served as the president's office and was not particularly crowded. They quickly found the man known as the president in the largest room.

But the person didn't look like the person in the photo. Nevertheless, they decided to arrest him, which was no problem. During a break in the president's meeting, they easily took him to the barn.

However, only Jacqueline among them could use the Imperius Curse, so everyone had to wait for Jacqueline to return. Meanwhile, the president had recovered from the initial panic of being kidnapped and, after discovering that the other party was just a group of young people in their twenties, he began to try to talk to them.

How could these young wizards, who knew almost nothing about Muggle society, possibly be a match for the shrewd president? Within minutes, the president had convinced them that he fully supported the young wizards' idea of ​​ruling Muggles with wizards, and that as long as they were sent back to the presidential palace, he would immediately summon his most trusted subordinates, announce this decision, and grant them supreme power.

"Just let me continue as president, and I can help you manage this country."

The president's reaction was exactly what the young wizards thought of a greasy Muggle politician, so they didn't suspect anything and took the president back to his office.

Then they were surrounded by the guard regiment, and after a chaotic battle, the situation has become what it is today.

Okai was filled with frustration. Blatt had been captured by the other side. Although they could escape at any time, Blatt was about to fall into the other side's hands. Just as he was hesitating, Okai suddenly felt a chilling fear and he almost subconsciously turned his head away.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!" Several gunshots rang out almost simultaneously. Two of the four wizards who were holding the president hostage were hit by bullets flying from the window, and their fates were unknown. Only Ocai and another wizard, Bacchus, who was in a blind spot, escaped unharmed.

But the bodyguard in the black suit on the other side seemed to have anticipated this, and immediately drew his gun and fired at the two men.

Before Bacchus could even draw his wand, he was struck on the head. Okai managed to deflect the bullet with an armor charm, but he was too terrified to linger and Apparated away.

But just as Ocai escaped, Jacqueline and the remaining wizards arrived. They had come to rescue him, but as soon as they arrived, they saw Muggles carrying the corpses of their companions.
