In This Hogwarts Without a Savior Chapter 401

  Chapter 401 399. Looking for Barrow

   There are still more than four months before the start of the last project. Of course, Jon doesn't have to stay in the carriage every day.

   What and how the last item compares, even Dumbledore doesn't know.

  The contents of the first two games were formulated by him and Voldemort respectively, and the third game was jointly planned by the union of the three of Matthew.

  The content of this project will only be announced to them on the day of the game. Unless someone in the referee team hooks up with a certain party, there will be no one who can prepare in advance.

  Jon returned to Lyon with other students on the carriage the day after the second project ended.

Winter is not over at this time, Lyon just had a heavy snowfall on Christmas Day, and the snow has not yet melted at this time. When Jon and the others returned to Hogwarts' temporary residence in Lyon, it was still covered in silver. look.

"I've been watching for the whole autumn, there were thunders a few times in the middle, but in the end it didn't rain, it was just a cloudy day, or there was heavy rain but there was no thunder, now it's winter, and The chances of a thunderstorm are very low."

  Although this has been said in the letter to Jon, Neville still needs to explain the specific situation to him in detail.

  Jon didn't have many regrets about this, he just shook his head and said.

   "It's normal. I never thought that it would be so coincidental that I would meet in autumn. Besides, after the snow melts, spring will arrive. Waiting for the spring thunder at that time, the chance is quite good."

   After returning to Lyon, Jon didn't stay here for long.

   They shouldn't have made this special trip back to France, but because Slytherin asked Jon to help him with a special mission, Dumbledore simply returned with the students in the carriage.

  On the third day after returning, Jon set off with Nick and another ghost.

"If you have enough trust in me and Hermione's words, please rest assured that after this match is over, the crown will naturally be retrieved, and it is useless even if you are anxious now, in the principal's office Professor Dumbledore has also made it clear to you that the four relics have been integrated into the entire Hogwarts castle in a disguised form, and there is no way for them to be taken out of the headmaster's office."

  Before setting off, Jon cautiously explained the current situation to Ms. Gray, lest she still harbor some uncertain illusions and secretly do bad things behind her back.

In this regard, this witch who has been dead for thousands of years is not as proud as when she first met Jon. Her temper seems to have been domesticated by Hermione. After hearing Jon's frank announcement, she opened her mouth. Said.

   "Dumbledore has already told me what you said, and I understand it all, and I won't be so persistent about retrieving the crown. Coming back from that castle with you is enough proof."

   This can indeed prove something in disguise, but Jon still feels that it is better to make it clear in advance no matter what.

"Well, since you have already said so, and Professor Dumbledore has chosen to believe you and asked you to help lead the way, then of course I will also give you my trust." After the two parties made a candid announcement, Jon certainly would not return to Gray. What a vigil the lady maintains.

   "So according to what the professor said, do you have any clues about the whereabouts of the **** Barrow?"

   "When we separated from Hogwarts, he told me that if one day in the future I don't know where I want to go, I can go to the headquarters of the Headless Knights who have moved to Norway to find him."

  Hearing Ms. Gray's words, Jon couldn't help curling his lips inwardly.

Although few people know about the secrets among the ghosts, Jon certainly cannot be ignorant. He knows that Ms. Gray and the **** Barrow are both wizards of the era of the Big Four, and one is Rowena Ravenclaw His own daughter, one has a deep relationship with Salazar Slytherin. Of course, there is a love-hate relationship between the two, as well as a unilateral love-hate entanglement. Unchanged.

   At this time Nick couldn't help but interjected.

"Why did he let you go to the Headless Knights to find him? He didn't have his head cut off, will the Knights take him in? I wanted to apply to join but I was not eligible! They said my head was not complete cut off."

   And Ms. Gray obviously didn't have the slightest interest in Nick's question.

   "How do I know what those lunatics are thinking? You can ask them yourself when you get to the place."

  Hearing such an unceremonious answer, Nick couldn't help but looked at Jon and shrugged.

   "Okay, let's talk about it when we get to the place."

They used Floo powder and soon came to the largest wizard street in the Norwegian magic world, but it is obviously much smaller than the shops in Britain or France. In fact, most of the wizard population in Europe is concentrated in England and France. Germany these three main countries.

Now, due to Voldemort's rule, the population of Britain is losing a lot, but the most destinations are France and Germany. In the past year, due to the war in France, the wizard population has begun to flow out again, but the main direction of inflow is also Around France, because most people are still more optimistic that Dumbledore can regain France from Voldemort.

Jon and the others didn't stay on this magical street in Norway for too long. After inquiring about the residence of the Ghost of the Headless Knights in a tavern, they left here and came to Birkennes, a city in the southeastern part of Norway. A not-so-famous town, and in an abandoned manor in the easternmost part of the town, the headquarters of the Headless Knights was relocated from Ireland.

  Although Voldemort's policies in Britain and Ireland will not affect ghosts, and ghosts can't be persecuted by blood at all, many ghosts are not pure blood.

  They couldn't get used to it and couldn't stop them, so they simply gathered a group of ghosts who could leave Ireland and England, and came to this small city in Norway together.

  The Headless Knights is one of the largest ghost organizations.

  Jon received a very good reception for their visit, and the highest person in charge here is the head of the Headless Knights, a ghost named Patrick.

   As soon as he saw Nick he let out a wild laugh.

   "Nick!" he yelled. "How are you? Is your head still hanging there?"

  Nick didn't seem very happy about his warm greeting, he muttered.

   "Okay, okay, don't bother you, of course it's still hanging around my neck well."

   "Hi! I told you a long time ago, this is not okay."

  Patrick grabbed his thick beard with one stroke, and then pulled his entire head off his neck. The smooth posture made Jon couldn't help but take a step back.

  He shook his head, as if he was lifting a cabbage in a bag.

   "Did you see it! This is the attitude that a real man should have! I have advised you a long time ago, if you want to join us, you must find a way to find someone to chop off the piece of skin you are attached to with an axe!"

  Nick appeared to be indifferent on the surface, but in fact he had betrayed him by the envious glances he stole over Patrick from time to time.

Jon was a little speechless about this kind of showing off among the ghosts. If Gabriel saw this scene, he would probably start thinking about how to find a skilled executioner to completely chop it up after he became a living person. Lower her head to join them.

   Fortunately, this trip was made without telling Gabriel.

  In comparison, Ms. Gray looks much more normal.

   She said with impatience on her face.

   "I'm not interested in watching your boring show, we're here to find Barrow."

   It can be seen that apart from Nick, Patrick's main object of showing off still wants to be praised by Ms. Gray. After all, Ms. Gray is a beautiful and beautiful female ghost.

   As a result, her words hurt Patrick very much.

   "Barrow? That Barrow?"

  He seemed to have lost interest, and put his head that was waving like a cabbage back on his neck and straightened it, muttering and asking absent-mindedly.

  Jon interjects for the first time in the erratic communication between their ghosts.

   "It is the resident ghost of the Slytherin house in Hogwarts, the **** Barrow."

  "...Well, Baro, the blood man Baro. Wait! Are you here to find the blood man Baro?"

  Patrick seemed to have just reacted. His eyes widened, and because of too much force, his head that had just been straightened was tilted back a little.

   But obviously he doesn't pay attention to these "grooming", he said with emotion after being shocked.

"Barrow once stayed with me for a period of time. He wanted to incorporate us and said that he would take us back to England in a counterattack, so that the Dark Lord who had betrayed the glory of Slytherin would regret it. We just thought He was crazy, no one paid attention to him at all, and then he left after he found that there was no way to persuade us, and now he seems to have created a huge name in Germany and became the leader of the ghosts! "

Jon's face looked a little weird. He heard some news from Nick about the scattered ghosts of the former Hogwarts resident ghosts, and Barrow once expressed that he wanted to rely on his own strength to bring the castle back to life. He took it back from Voldemort's hands. He didn't think about it at the time, but now it is confirmed that he really has such a plan!

   However, Ms. Gray just sneered at this.

   "He is always like this, no matter where he wants to be the leader of everyone and influence everyone's opinions, but when does he get things done?"

  Of course, Jon was sensible and didn't intervene. Ms. Gray is certainly qualified to say some things.

   Nick also showed considerable surprise, he asked.

   "Then do you know where he is in Germany?"

"Of course!" Speaking of this, Patrick obviously became extremely proud again, "We are the best ghost team in Europe, Nick, after becoming the head of the entire German ghost, Mr. Barrow has invited us several times. We had a warm-up show at his banquet, where we had a lot of fans, and everyone tried their best to join us, but it was terrible."

   When talking about the glorious past of the Headless Knights, he began to talk endlessly, but fortunately, Jon planned him in time.

   "We want to know where Barrow is now, can you tell us, Mr. Patrick."

"Oh, well, he is now in a castle on the outskirts of Hamburg, Germany, which used to be the residence of a group of vampires. It seems that Barrow arranged for ghosts to expose them, and then the German Ministry of Magic cleaned up those vampires. They occupied this place, and then used their connections to register in the ghost office, making it a place that legally belonged to them."

  Jon and Nick looked at each other, obviously shocked by Barrow's operation.

   Among other things, he really has some "heroic" means in this way.

  After learning of Barrow's exact location from the Headless Knights, Jon and the others did not stay here any longer.

  Patrick treated them graciously to the internal gathering of the Headless Knights tonight, but apparently he was still unwilling to convince Ms. Gray, and wanted to fully demonstrate his charm as a headless ghost.

  Jon and the others naturally declined his kindness, and soon left from Norway, and then came to Hamburg, Germany through Grindelwald's channel in Northern Europe.

As the second largest city in Germany, Hamburg still has a lot of wizards who have settled here. In addition, Britain and France have not been peaceful for the past two years. Recently, more wizards have poured in. Except for Berlin, Hamburg There is also a wizarding commercial street in the local area that is not inferior to Diagon Alley in the United Kingdom.

   After coming here, they easily inquired about Barrow.

"You mean those crazy ghosts? They are in a castle in the deep mountains and old forests on the outskirts of Glinde. The place is hard to find. They paid for a team of professional wizards to do secret magic for the castle. The Ministry of Magic also recognizes that it belongs to their territory, and if you want to visit, these two ghosts may be more suitable."

  After getting the news from a tavern owner, Jon continued to set off with Nick and Ms. Gray.

   They quickly found the woods east of Hamburg, but were troubled by how to find the castle.

  It seems that Barrow's protection of his resident is indeed extremely perfect. Without an invitation, let alone ordinary people, even ordinary wizards cannot be found.

   And just when Jon and the others were at a loss, a whimpering sound caught their attention faintly.

   "They just despise me as useless but what can I do, I didn't have such a prominent reputation like them during my lifetime, I was just a student who was killed innocently"

   Change work and rest tonight, tomorrow will be more day-to-day
