The Admiral of Hogwarts

In this drama of Voldemort's resurrection, Hugo and Veneto were also caught up, not just Harry. Although they had prepared their defenses during the battle, they really didn't expect the enemy to use this method to break through their defenses.

Just as the Portkey activated, Hugo immediately prepared for battle, activating the runic inscriptions on his body to put an extra layer of defense on himself.

Then Hugo felt as if a hook behind his navel was pulling him forward with an irresistible force, and his feet lifted off the ground.

"They actually have this kind of tactic." Hugo felt a little dazed, because neither he nor the ship girls had encountered this tactic before, so he was naturally a little flustered when he encountered it for the first time.

"A very clever approach." Veneto had already analyzed the advantages of this tactic at this time. "The enemy must have seen through our intention to stall for time, so they used this method to drive us away in order to escape with Harry."

Veneto sent information through the admiral network while holding Hugo's hand tightly. Their shoulders bumped together from time to time, and the wind whistled in their ears, as if they were flying at high speed.

Finally, their feet landed on the ground, and then Veneto gently nudged Hugo's shoulder from behind to help him stand up straight.

"Where is this?" Hugo looked around and asked with a puzzled expression. He found himself in a cellar, with only a wooden fence overhead allowing him to see the stars.

However, judging from the solid stones, walls, and ground around him, as well as the bloodstains left around, this place seemed to be a prison for detaining prisoners.

"This area is a chaotic magic zone." Veneto waved her wand and said, "Generally, those who build bases of this kind in this place are non-wizard magical creatures."

"Because this place can suppress the spellcasting abilities of wizards to the greatest extent possible, but it will not overly affect those creatures that rely on bloodline magic to fight."

Hugo nodded in agreement, because he also took out his wand and tried to cast a spell, only to find that casting spells in this place was much more difficult than casting spells in other places.

"How did you guys run so far at once?" Just as Veneto and Hugo both adopted combat stances, Renown's voice came from the admiral network. "You were just in Scotland, but now you're actually in Bavaria!"

"Don't mention it, I accidentally got hit during the battle just now, and I was directly sent away by the other party's Portkey." Hugo said to Renown helplessly, "By the way, can you see our current location accurately?"

"You are currently located in a valley." Renown on the space station quickly adjusted the reconnaissance equipment to project onto Hugo's location, and then said. "There are traces of a lot of personnel activity around."

"If I'm not mistaken, you should now be in a settlement of traditional hags, and these hags are often supporters of dark wizards and are not friendly to ordinary humans or wizards."

"Look at this—" While Hugo was contacting Renown, Veneto was constantly searching for clues with the tools in her hand, and she actually found something.

In Veneto's hand was a piece of clothing remnant, which looked like it should be a relatively new windbreaker, and there was a patch of blood on the edge of the windbreaker, indicating that the owner of the clothes was likely in mortal danger.

Hags are creatures that look very much like ugly old witches and have disgusting warts all over their faces. They also use some relatively simple magic derived from their bloodline.

According to the Ministry of Magic's classification, hags are classified as "humans," which made centaurs and mermaids very unhappy, preferring to be classified as "beasts" rather than being in the same category as hags.

The reason why centaurs and mermaids were unhappy was because hags originally had an evil side to their nature, such as using intelligent creatures as their food and maliciously spreading diseases.

In the 17th and 18th centuries, a hag named Honoria Nutcombe founded the Hag Reform Association to help and guide hags to live more civilized lives in the magical world.

Because of this, most hags have now integrated into human wizarding society. For example, they can be seen in Diagon Alley, Knockturn Alley, and Hogsmeade Village.

However, not all hags have embraced civilized society. Some hags still continue their past lives. They still live in caves and hunt humans to make their own potions.

Yes, hags can make some potions that wizards cannot make, and some of these potions use human organs, so now only those wild hags living in caves can make them.

Of course, this practice is against the law, and Aurors will also hunt down those hags who dare to do this and imprison them permanently or execute them directly.

It's just that because many of these potions are either unattainable or difficult to attain by human wizards' potions, the black market for potions has always existed.

During the last war, many wild hags sided with Voldemort because Voldemort promised to allow them to use Muggles to make potions.

However, after Voldemort's defeat, these hags were naturally liquidated. Many of the ringleaders were killed or arrested by Aurors, but a small number escaped.

And judging from the current situation, the location where Hugo and the others are located is likely to be a secret base of a certain wild hag faction. Obviously, Barty Crouch Jr. and the others are likely to have some kind of connection with this hag village.

Considering the pot of potion when Voldemort was resurrected, it is entirely understandable that the other party has some connection with these hags. And Barty Crouch Jr. teleporting Hugo and the others here is obviously hoping to use a knife to kill.

"Does the other party really think that this broken place can hold us?" Veneto unfolded her ship equipment at this time, then grabbed the wall of the cave and quickly climbed to the top of the well prison, then pinched the wooden fence above with her hand and opened a hole to drill out.

After confirming safety, Hugo also climbed up. It may be because the other party felt that this area was safe enough, so there was not even a sentry around.

"This place sounds quite quiet, it doesn't seem like anyone is nearby." After hiding behind a large rock and listening for more than ten seconds, Veneto quickly heard some information, "I think someone is coming, I'll grab a live one and ask."

Hugo nodded, then took out a short sword and a pistol engraved with runes from a secret space agency in his robe, and then leaned against the stone nervously with a vigilant look.

However, Veneto is indeed very reliable when she really enters combat mode. Soon, she dragged a hag back.

After setting up a simple magic barrier around, Veneto began the interrogation work. The work was a bit unsuccessful at the beginning, but after connecting with Dzerzhinsky, the interrogation progress quickly improved.

After all, hags are still humanoid creatures, so under those tried-and-tested torture methods, they are no stronger than ordinary people. Soon, Hugo and the others asked some key information.
