The Admiral of Hogwarts

When peace descends upon a region, the people there sometimes become busier rather than relaxed. After all, even if the war ends, post-war reconstruction and a series of other tasks still require a large amount of manpower and resources.

Compared to the situation during the war, the current work is more cumbersome and challenging.

Faced with people who have lost their loved ones and一片片 ruins, restoring the wounds of this land is not an easy task.

"Even though the area here is small and the population is small, the complexity of the matter far exceeds everyone's expectations," Split sighed.

"If we didn't have the Admiral Network, which allows us to communicate at any time, and if everyone couldn't work around the clock, we probably wouldn't be able to survive."

"That's just because your demands are too high," Hugo said, knowing some of the things through the Admiral Network. "Seriously, if you were humans, you might really end up being exhausted to death like Zhuge Liang."

"But we are not humans, so we have enough capital to make this world, or at least a part of the world, a better place," Split said with a smile.

"We come from the good side of humanity, so in many ways we are close to those human idealists. But unlike humans, we have enough power to try to realize our dreams."

"That's right, you do have a truth that humans don't have to convince people," Hugo nodded after looking at these ship girls in front of him. At least those big pipes exceeding 100 millimeters are definitely not something normal humans can possess.

In short, the current situation is generally very good. At least, while sorting out internal affairs, we can still spare some manpower to enter Albania to search for Voldemort.

However, in order to avoid being noticed in advance by Voldemort that someone is specifically targeting him, except for the ship girls themselves, the rest are just hiring those free wizards to find ways to search for various abnormal traces.

"The best news we have now is from Kirov. She hired a group of free wizards through the black market who found traces of Nagini. If there are no accidents, we will most likely be able to catch her," Split said finally.

"Didn't you find that noseless guy?" Hugo asked curiously, because in his impression, Voldemort was with Nagini when he was in Albania.

"At least the mercenaries didn't find any abnormalities," Split shook his head with a solemn expression. "Saint George has gone south, and she will make the final confirmation before Christmas."

"Then I can only hope that everything goes smoothly," Hugo nodded and said. "But even if you can't find that noseless guy, it doesn't matter. You can directly bring that snake back."

"At least I think Nagini is already very unlucky. If Voldemort makes her a Horcrux again, she will be even more unlucky. If we have the ability, it is better to help her out."

After the inspection, Hugo stayed in the Balkans for a full three days. In addition to inspecting the underground base of the ship girls, he also visited the entire country where the war had ceased.

I have to say that these ship girls have indeed lived up to the heritage of their names. Under their efforts, although this place is full of ruins, at least hope has appeared on people's faces.

For this region, hope is very important. It can even be said to be as important as various materials. Because with hope, this region will have a future to speak of.

"The situation is better than expected," Split, as the highest military commander here, dressed himself up simply and walked with Hugo on the streets of Sarajevo.

"Where did you see that from?" Hugo asked with some incomprehension. In his eyes, this city under reconstruction really couldn't be said to have anything that could be called better than expected.

Although, because of the intervention of the ship girls, the siege war faced by this city was not as long and cruel as Hugo's previous life, the siege war that lasted for more than a year still brought heavy damage to this city.

To give a simplest example, you can see many people with obvious external injuries on the street, and most of the houses on both sides of the street show a certain degree of damage. As a result, most of the people on both sides of the street are busy rebuilding these buildings.

"Because there are more than 20% more people working on the streets than I imagined," Split quickly observed the changes on the streets and made a conclusion based on the information he had checked before.

"If we combine the records from the customs and border defense, we can confirm that most of the people who previously went to Italy, Austria and other countries to take refuge are returning, which also shows that they are full of confidence in this land and its people."

"You're right, being poor and blank is not terrible, what's terrible is losing confidence," Hugo nodded in agreement, "I believe this land will be rejuvenated again."

On the third day of arriving in the Balkans, Hugo said goodbye to Stalingrad and the Soviet Union, and then returned to France and switched identities with Degrasse again.

The following ski trip was indeed very interesting. Although Hugo had not received any training in this area before, he quickly learned to ski with his strong physical fitness.

Of course, during this period, Väinämöinen helped him a lot. This ship girl from Finland remotely taught him through the Admiral Network how to ski and how to move easily on the snow.

In short, this Christmas holiday was a very good holiday for Hugo. At least he could take this opportunity to relax and arrange a series of situations related to the transformation of the home port from war to peace.

Indeed, the ship girls are fully capable of handling the current situation independently, but they are still habitually hoping that Hugo, the admiral, can make his own decisions.

Soon, it was Christmas. When they got out of bed that day, they found a large pile of Christmas gifts placed on the carpet in front of the bed.

In this regard, Hugo admires the owls in the wizarding world very much. At least he has never figured out how these owls bring these things into a closed room.

After counting, he found that in addition to the various gifts from the ship girls, some of these gifts also came from classmates and those people he met during the alchemy competition last time.

"Dragon claw powder, it's a good thing that you can't even buy," Hugo happily took out a small bottle of powder from a box. "Although direct consumption destroys the brain, it has a very wide range of applications in alchemy."

"Are you going to make Baffe's Brain-Boosting Potion?" Hermione curiously leaned over and said. "I heard that that thing has a very good refreshing effect and basically has no side effects."

"If there are any shortcomings, it is that the production is too complicated and the price is too expensive, so there are almost no genuine products on the market. If you buy fake medicine, it will lightly make your brain confused for a few hours, and severely it will directly turn you into a vegetable."

"Don't worry, I met a few wizards last time who are very good at making potions," Hugo said, putting away the bottle. "So if I really want to drink it, I will definitely ask someone to check it after it's made before drinking it."
