Study Days at Hogwarts

Chapter 1646 A war without a winner (ninety-six)

There was a rush of "crackling" footsteps in the corridor outside, and then the wooden door of the lounge was suddenly pushed open from the outside. Tonks, wearing a special Auror combat uniform, appeared at the door, panting.

"What's wrong?"

Tonks found everyone in the lounge staring at her.

Harry stood up from his seat, walked quickly towards Tonks, and asked in a low voice, "Why are you here? How is Remus?"

"Remus is currently sleeping soundly." Tonks explained after regaining her breath, "The potion provided by Albert is very effective. Although Remus still looks in pain, there is no sign of waking up. A nightmare. Besides, Sirius is there to watch over him."

"Okay, sit down first."

Gadwin Robards came over and motioned the two of them to sit down, then cleared his throat and said to the Aurors gathered in the lounge, "I think you all know why we are gathered here tonight."

He paused, looked around to make sure no one had any doubts, and then continued, "Based on the last werewolf attack, we have reason to suspect that someone plans to use the werewolf to do something."

"Is there any evidence?"

After a newly joined young Auror was glanced at coldly by Gadwin Robards, he quickly changed his words and said, "I mean, are there really going to be a large number of werewolves coming out tonight?"

"If there is any evidence, we should arrest people now." Gadwin Robards glanced at everyone present, "Of course we also hope that this is just a false alarm. Not many people are willing to follow the full moon. We have to deal with transformed werewolves, but there are various signs that some crazy lunatics are likely to use werewolves to do something, so we have to take precautions to avoid the worst case scenario.”

Everyone knew very well who Gadwin Robards was referring to as the madman, because there had been similar attacks by the Inferi before, and it was no wonder that the Ministry of Magic was so cautious.

Werewolves are more dangerous than inferi.

"If circumstances permit, you can consider capturing them alive. The Ministry of Magic will provide relevant rewards. Although the bounty is not much, but..." Gadwin Robards' tone became serious, "Everything must be done with your safety in mind. Lord, don't be merciful because of the little money. When you encounter a transformed werewolf, you have to use the most severe spell to greet them, even if you kill them on the spot, you are allowed."

"You should all know the terrible consequences of being bitten by a werewolf, so don't let me hear that any of you have been bitten by a werewolf, do you hear me?"

"I heard it." Everyone said in unison.

"Very good. If you have any questions, please ask them while you still have time." Gadwin Robards nodded with satisfaction, leaving the remaining time for everyone to ask questions.

"I remember that Albert seemed to have invented a spell specifically for werewolves." Harry stood up and expressed his doubts, "Why don't we seem to have popularized that spell specifically for werewolves?"

The specific spells were very effective, but Harry was puzzled that the Ministry of Magic did not popularize them among Aurors.

"Oh, you mean the Restoration Curse?" Gadwin Robards knew what Harry was talking about and raised his hand to indicate that he could sit down first.

"That spell can indeed effectively force a werewolf to return to human form, but as far as I know it is more difficult to master than the Patronus Charm. It can only be used by a wizard with a superb memory like Albert Anderson. It has been recognized Because it has no practical value, the Ministry of Magic did not expect you to master it from the beginning. "

After saying that, Gadwin Robards turned his attention to Tonks, who shook her head and said: "Unfortunately, the humanoid restoration spell is very difficult. I have been practicing it for two months and still haven't been able to master it."

"This is the situation, but we have never denied the value of the Humanoid Restoration Curse." Gadwin Robards seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly mentioned another thing to everyone.

??????55.??????

"As far as I know, our minister seems to be interested in implementing a werewolf registry and a werewolf capture plan group."

"Is such a thing possible?"

Everyone was skeptical, because similar things had been tried before, but they all failed.

Because no one wants to admit that they are a werewolf.

"Of course it's possible! Don't forget that in the wizarding war some time ago, werewolves died in large numbers. There should not be many werewolves left in Britain today."

Small numbers mean easy management.

"As long as the remaining werewolves are controlled and managed uniformly during the full moon period, the huge threat posed by werewolves to the British magical world can be completely avoided."

Unified management?

How is this possible!

Is Kingsley crazy?

Everyone was shocked by Kingsley's courage!

But if you think about it carefully, now is indeed the best chance to eliminate the werewolf threat.

"There must be many werewolves who are unwilling to register, and unified management is not easy, right?"

Everyone is well aware of the difficulty.

"No, it's actually not that difficult." Gadwin Robards reminded, "You just heard Tonks say that Albert invented a potion for werewolves, which can make werewolves fall into a trap during the full moon. Sleep, thereby reducing the danger of the transformed werewolf."

The Ministry of Magic naturally cannot provide wolfsbane potion to werewolves. Although that thing can keep werewolves rational and become "harmless", wolfsbane potion was not used for poor werewolves since the day it was invented.

The difficulty of brewing and the expensive raw materials are obstacles that can never be overcome.

The potion that Albert gave to Lupin is actually a powerful sleeping potion with analgesic effect, which can force werewolves to fall asleep. Even if werewolves will transform during the full moon, they will not be awakened by the pain, thus achieving "harmlessness of werewolves".

The most important thing is that this potion is relatively cheap. The only trouble is that someone needs to take the antidote for them to wake them up, and the Ministry of Magic can completely achieve the effect of controlling werewolves during the full moon by providing potions to werewolves.

After all, werewolves are only threatening during the full moon. As long as they are centrally controlled and managed during this period, the threats they bring can be completely avoided.

Moreover, if werewolves really cause harm to the British magic world, Kingsley will need a solution to the problem to stabilize everyone's confidence in him.

As for those werewolves who are unwilling to accept management, they will be killed if caught during the full moon.

Those who are willing to accept management can be provided with a relatively easy job by the Ministry of Magic, but it does not pay much money.

At least they will not have to starve anymore and can live with a little dignity.

This actually does not cost many Galleons, and it can gradually eliminate the hidden dangers of werewolves.

In the end, even Gadwin Robards was convinced, because after the werewolf incident is over, this plan can be implemented.

As for how to find werewolves?

This has never been a difficult task, because there is no shortage of guides in this world.

Of course, when Gadwin Robards told the Aurors these things, he was actually hinting to everyone that there are not many werewolves in the UK at present. If a large number of werewolves appear one day, it means that someone is deliberately creating werewolves.

As for who is creating werewolves, it goes without saying.

I believe everyone will want to kill them.

However, things are a little unexpected.

Everyone waited all night, but no trace of the werewolf was found. Just when everyone was wondering whether the werewolf would appear, the door of the lounge was finally pushed open again. Gadwin Robards' assistant panted and held the door sill and shouted to everyone: "Werewolf, the werewolf has appeared."
