- Chapter 98 The truth is often hidden under the warmest public opinion
However, the most important thing now is not going to Kunlun. The problem of the patron saint is not that urgent to solve for the time being.
Even if the Patronus couldn’t manifest, it wouldn’t affect him using the Guardian to drive away the Dementors.
The most important thing now is to consider how to let Shuguang gain a firm foothold.
Although he had arranged for Saini to buy the newspaper so that he and Rita Skeeter could engage in a tacit double-act public opinion war.
But until things settle down completely, no one can be sure that the International Federation of Wizards and the Wizengamot will really regard all this as a quarrel between children.
If the regulations here are not properly handled, the entire magical world may be under siege.
There is no doubt that after the failure of Grindelwald’s rebellion, the wizarding world basically had zero tolerance for this behavior.
Once everyone understands that Shuguang is serious and has a practical plan, they will definitely find a way to eliminate this hidden danger.
The determination of the people in power in the magic world to maintain the law of secrecy is firm and unwavering. As long as the magic world can survive, they will spare no effort to deal with Dawn.
Speaking of which, up to now, compared to the established organizations, Suguang’s performance is not even close.
Whether compared with the Death Eaters under Voldemort or the Order of the Phoenix under Dumbledore, Dawn still seems too immature.
A group of students who have just graduated, or even those who have not graduated, are not yet capable of facing the experienced Order of the Phoenix and ruthless Death Eaters.
In the entire Dawn, except for Gretel, no one dared to say that he would definitely be able to get an advantage in the hands of the Death Eaters and the elites of the Order of the Phoenix.
Saini can’t do it, Penelo can’t do it, and Cedric and other lower-level members are even less likely.
Moen Sekht can ensure his own safety, but once he is surrounded, he will be unable to defeat four people with just two fists.
This is why Dumbledore and Voldemort didn’t take action.
Once these two people free their hands and lower their bodies to attack Shuguang, only Gretel will survive in Shuguang.
But even he can only guarantee his own safety in the hands of these two people.
For him to fight against Dumbledore or Voldemort, who have been famous for a long time, is nothing more than a daydream for him now.
He is already very powerful if he can fight against these two people without losing.
Grete is quite self-aware, and now, even counting the entries on the board, he can at least be 40 or 6 ahead of them.
He four.
[Same Origin] guarantees his battery life and does not increase his upper limit.
The upper limit still needs to be exceeded as he ages.
Taking a detailed look at his battles, in order to ensure safety, he always used information asymmetry to catch others off guard.
The only one who was defeated head-on was Gilderoy Lockhart, a parallel importer.
Many times, Gretel even wanted to contact arms dealers in the Muggle world and ask them to buy a batch of real weapons, so that the old guys in the wizarding world would know what it means that times have changed.
Thinking about it later, this idea was still forgotten.
God knows, wizards who are already worried about the Muggle world, if they see the dawn and have an assault rifle, they will immediately unite and destroy the dawn into a ball of fly ash.
Slytherin left the academy at that time because of his different views on Muggles from the other three founders.
In that era when wizards were in danger, Muggle wizards and even half-blood wizards were under the suspicion of Slytherin.
He left the basilisk behind just to eliminate the unrest in Hogwarts.
After all, in his opinion, Muggle wizards are not wizards. They will one day become spies for Muggles in the wizarding world.
Of course, the best and fastest way to deal with spies is to eliminate them.
Humanity is inhumane. After the pure-blood wizard is completely safe, it is not too late to consider it again.
Therefore, when I think about wizards who originally lacked trust in Muggles, people who saw the light of day still used weapons produced by Muggles to shoot at wizards. Gretel did not need to imagine what would happen next.
——
In the end, Gretel did not learn the specific situation of Kunlun from Grindelwald. He only knew that Kunlun was an extraordinary gathering place in the mysterious East.
They generally call themselves Kunlun Ruins, and the only magic school in the entire East is there.
It is also the oldest magic holy place in the world, which still exists today. The magic school in Kunlun Ruins is also the oldest magic school in the world.
From ancient times to the present, no matter how much the outside world changes, only the mysterious East has never had a magical fault.
Grindelwald also revealed to Gretel the news that the wizards at Kunlun Ruins had a very similar attitude towards Muggles as Gretel.
If it weren’t for Grete, no matter judging from his appearance or age, he wouldn’t fit the characteristics of Kunlun Ruins.
He even suspected that Gretel was someone who came from Kunlun Ruins.
Before Gretel left, Grindelwald also suggested that he go to Kunlun Ruins as soon as possible.
Kunlun Ruins pays attention to fate. The token in his hand is not a permanent certificate. If you miss the opportunity, it will not be easy to visit Kunlun again.
Gretel agreed and turned into points of light in the sky, disappearing in front of Grindelwald.
“What a stinky boy.”
Grindelwald placed three balls wrapped in particles in front of his eyes.
He felt that Gretel’s rapid improvement in strength must be related to the magic particles.
Although he no longer plans to set foot in the outside world, this novel gadget really allowed him to regain his vitality.
It’s like reliving the days in Godric’s Hollow.
Stretching, he took out his phone and called Vladimir.
“Vladimir, please help me find Kailin, Titanic, Daphne…
Let them deal with the matter at hand as soon as possible. I have something here that I want to study with them. “

“The ridiculous clown is slandering the great Dumbledore” – Magic Today

…
Under Grete’s arrangement, the two newspapers openly fought against each other.
Whenever Rita Skeeter published an article disparaging Dumbledore at the request of her sponsor, Magic Today published an article with the opposite argument.
Rita Skeeter was a little worried at first. After all, her articles were all exaggerations, fabrications, and it could be said that they were basically taken out of context.
She was not worried that Dumbledore would come to trouble her. She was only worried that the article would not satisfy the funder.
In particular, she discovered that the money the donor gave her last time was not to buy out her pen, but instead, she would receive a considerable amount of gold galleons for every article she published.
As a reporter who has been immersed in this field for many years, she is not afraid of the parties causing trouble for her.
Although Rita Skeeter has a bad reputation, her popularity is considered well-known in England and even the entire European wizarding community.
If someone troubles her, it means sending her article material, or empirical material based on her own personal experience.
Dumbledore was a man who would never ask for trouble.
Because she has long seen that the older a person is, the more he cherishes his feathers.
She had used this unwarranted method to blackmail countless famous old wizards.
A person like Dumbledore, who has lived a life of glory, would never come to her. That would mean asking for trouble and giving her real dirty information.
Therefore, she was not afraid that she would face Dumbledore’s revenge.
However, fortunately, it was Dumbledore who wanted her to be tricked, and a gentleman can bully him.
If the sponsor asked her to smear the Dark Lord, no matter how much money she had, she would not dare to do it.
If you throw dirty water on the White Devil, you will at most be sprayed to death by fans of Dumbledore in the wizarding world.
But so what, it won’t stop her from making money.
Besides, it’s not like she couldn’t see the overt and covert support of the Minister of Magic, Cornelius Fudge.
She and the minister are now on a united front, wearing the same pants.
She is not only the pen of the donor, but also the minister’s indispensable first general on the public opinion front.
But when someone stood up and challenged her, she was completely panicked. Others may have been suspicious of her article.
But as an editor, how could she not know that 99% of her articles were based on her own imagination, and if she really wanted evidence, she couldn’t produce it at all.
However, as the opponent of Today’s Magic News, when they praised Dumbledore, they listed the achievements and achievements that can be found in real records.
She was afraid that the wizarding world would stir up trouble by standing up to the drama, causing those ignorant people to wake up and defend Dumbledore.
She couldn’t imagine how angry her sponsor would be if that situation happened, and whether he would cut off all contact with her in anger, or even get angry and take back the salary paid to her.
She didn’t think the donor couldn’t do it. Someone who could pay her so much money was definitely not someone she could afford.
No matter how bad the situation is, the donor can go to the black market and find those desperate desperadoes. The group of dark wizards who are short of money are happy to serve such generous donors.
By the way, I don’t mind using her life, body, bones, and soul to study those crazy black magics.
She didn’t care about the minister’s anger. Even if she was expelled from the Daily Prophet’s reporter team, she would have somewhere else to go.
If it weren’t for the fact that she was affiliated with the Ministry of Magic and could protect her own safety to a certain extent, she would have moved to other newspapers long ago.
However, in recent times, her pen has long been impressed by the generosity of her sponsor.
If she could really board the sponsor’s ship, it would be fine if she didn’t wear the skin of the Ministry of Magic.
With the anxiety of being abandoned by her sponsor, Rita Skeeter worried for a whole day.
However, her worry lasted for less than a day.
Shortly after the article compiled by Today’s Magic News was published, the hurricane that protected Dumbledore had not yet formed.
She received the latest request for a manuscript from her sponsor.
After that, I even made several appointments with her.
Then, she realized that the other person was playing against her.
As in the past, after she published various exaggerated and shocking fictional articles, corresponding rebuttal articles appeared in other newspapers and periodicals.
But those articles often contained criticism of her, Rita Skeeter, the Daily Prophet’s best reporter herself.
There are even some articles that are full of revelations about her from beginning to end.
But this time it was different. The opponent had a tacit understanding and avoided her.
Don’t even mention her article.
Instead, he worked tirelessly to help the British wizarding community review Dumbledore’s glorious moments.
That is Dumbledore, famous enough and with enough fans.
Another person would have been slandered by Rita Skeeter in more than ten articles in a row.
Not to mention ruined his reputation, at least his face was disgraced.
Unlike now, two completely different public opinions have formed in the entire magical world, and they have even gradually spread to the entire Europe.
Whether Dumbledore is a good guy or a bad guy has been a hot topic for a while.
Some people say that since Dumbledore has made so many contributions to the wizarding world, he must not be a bad person.
Besides, if Dumbledore was a bad guy, after defeating Grindelwald, he would have been able to claim the throne with his fame.
Judging from the situation at that time, no one would stand up and raise any objections.
Also, Rita Skeeter’s reputation is known to everyone who knows it, and there is no need to explain it to those who don’t.
She has always been the kind of person who ignores the facts just to make headlines. Now that she stands up, no one will believe her.
These people fully expressed their trust in Dumbledore, and many of them planned to send letters of complaint to the British Ministry of Magic to ask the Daily Prophet to kick Rita Skeeter, an incompetent reporter, out of the Ministry of Magic’s ranks.
Of course, some people felt that Rita Skeeter was not trustworthy in the past, but this time it was different. This time, the British Minister of Magic stood up to endorse her.
Cornelius Fudge personally stood up and said that the Dark Lord had not been resurrected, saying that this was a smokescreen prepared by Dumbledore to seize the position of Minister of Magic.
Could it be that the dedicated Minister of Magic is no longer worthy of trust?
Others came forward to support Rita Skeeter, saying that Dumbledore studied dark magic with Grindelwald when he was young.
This is something Dumbledore himself admitted. Now that he is older, it is not impossible to miss power.
Who knows if Dumbledore wants to use the Ministry of Magic to find a way for him to live forever.
…
Penelope followed the plan prepared by Gretel and didn’t care about how Rita Skeeter arranged Dumbledore.
She only needs to ensure that the views about their dawn in the article fabricated by Rita Skeeter are positive and have not been tampered with.
After it was determined that the public opinion in the wizarding world was gradually entangled with Dumbledore, and no one discussed it, and a large number of students quit Hogwarts in anger, the dawn was finally temporarily hidden.
At least until now, there has been no news from the internal agents they have arranged in the Ministry of Magic that anyone feels the need to impose sanctions on Dawn.
Although the focus of public opinion turned to Dumbledore, the private goods they exported were successfully communicated to interested parties.
According to the information Seni communicated with her every day, they were finally convinced that there were many more people who could develop into companions than they imagined.
Especially after the public opinion war was in full swing, many people Saini came into contact with finally no longer looked wary.
Although I don’t trust him that much, I can finally sit down and get to know him better.
Penello also feels that the recent work is much easier than before. At least, when accepting new comrades, he no longer has to worry about explaining to them the importance of confidentiality regulations.
As the organization’s oath of confidentiality, there was finally no need to explain it to them one by one.
Generally, after confirming to join Dawn, they will take the initiative to sign an oath to help each other and not betray each other under the witness of their companions.
