The Admiral of Hogwarts

“According to the rules, Miss Veneto enters the maze first, followed by Mr. Potter, Miss Delacour, and Mr. Krum,” Bagman said with a smile on the seemingly chaotic Quidditch field.

“This is the final match, and you all must work hard to succeed. It all depends on your ability to overcome obstacles. It should be fun, right?”

Veneto nodded along with the crowd at this time, but her heart was full of the urge to complain. Veneto knew all too well what kind of animals Hagrid would provide on this occasion, and it was not fun at all.

Although these monsters' combat power was very average to her, the disgusting feeling they gave people made her feel a little uncomfortable in her heart.

“Very good… If you have no questions, let’s go back to the castle, shall we? It’s a bit cold here…”

After explaining everything, Bagman hurriedly walked beside Harry, wanting to chat with him, but at this moment, Fleur stepped forward and gently patted Harry's shoulder to help him out of the situation.

“Harry, after you saved Gabrielle last time, she has been nagging me about wanting to meet you, so I hope you can go to the Beauxbatons carriage and talk to her…”

Harry naturally couldn't refuse this invitation, so he said goodbye to Veneto and followed Fleur towards the Beauxbatons carriage near the Forbidden Forest.

“As expected, Harry is a sucker for looks.” Hugo shook his head and muttered in the common room, watching Harry walk towards the Forbidden Forest with Fleur through the Admiral Network.

He guessed that if it were Krum or Bagman who invited Harry, Harry would definitely not be so excited.

Because of Veneto's return, Hugo and Hermione also came out of the common room to welcome her and to pick up a few books from the library. Soon, the two sides met on the third floor and then walked towards the library along a passage.

“What’s going on with Harry?” Just as the three of them came out of the library, they found Harry and Fleur leaving the Beauxbatons carriage and heading towards the Forbidden Forest.

“Harry should have a girlfriend now.” Seeing this scene, Hugo pointed to the group of people below and said with a smile. “What if we tell Ginny about this—”

“Then Harry is definitely doomed.” Hermione laughed beside him. “And I think I should tell Ginny too, after all, Ginny and I are considered friends.”

“Emergency!” Just as Hugo and the others were joking around, they suddenly received a notification in the Admiral Network from Renown, who was stationed at the Sky One space station.

“An anomaly has occurred at the Little Hangleton graveyard. Someone used a Disillusionment Charm or an Invisibility Cloak to dig up Voldemort’s grave and take something from it.”

“What?” Hearing the news from Renown, Hugo and the others all became vigilant. This was because, according to their prior analysis, Voldemort's Rebirth Potion should have limitations on the freshness of the ingredients.

Otherwise, in the original story, Voldemort could have completely used Barty Crouch Jr., disguised as Moody, to obtain Harry's blood, revive himself first, and then summon the Death Eaters to perform killing Harry.

Of course, the shelf life of different raw materials should be different. For example, whether it is fresh blood or flesh, it is naturally better to be fresh, otherwise, even with magic, it will lose its activity over time.

But ashes are better than the previous two. Digging them out a few hours or even days in advance will not affect the essence of the object, so they can be prepared in advance.

And after learning the alchemy knowledge left by Nicolas Flamel, Hugo also discovered that the procedure of brewing the potion in the original text, that is, bone—flesh—blood, also increases in activity in turn, which just shows the characteristics of resurrection from death.

But no matter what, it is better to have the raw materials of the potion as fresh as possible. And now, someone suddenly took the ashes, which is very likely to mean that Voldemort is preparing to resurrect.

“Have you tracked the other party’s whereabouts yet?” Because the Sky Space Station is equipped with a large number of detection-related equipment, and the space station is now targeting Britain, the two directly asked Renown about the current situation.

“Sorry, not yet.” Renown’s slightly nervous voice came from the Admiral Network. “Because the other party Apparated and ran away after digging up the grave, I can only conduct a comprehensive scan of the British Isles now—”

“Damn it, Harry is in danger now!” Before Renown could finish speaking, Veneto suddenly reacted and ran downstairs. Seeing this, Hugo and Hermione followed behind him. “I remembered, that Fleur just now was fake.”

While running, Veneto said to the Granger siblings through the Admiral Network. “Because that Fleur’s attractiveness today is much less than usual.”

“The attractiveness is much less—” Hugo thought for a moment, and then said in a somewhat uncertain tone. “Do you mean that she didn’t release that Veela-specific natural magic today?”

“Yes, although under normal circumstances, Veelas can control the release of their unique charm, there will always be a little magic leaking out during one-on-one communication with Harry before.”

“But now I realize that Fleur didn’t have any magic outflow at all when she was talking to Harry just now, which is obviously not normal.”

“Considering the information Renown conveyed, plus the two people walking towards the Forbidden Forest, I think that Fleur is very likely to be a spy who has sneaked in disguised.”

“That’s right.” Hermione’s face also showed a nervous expression, “Especially since the Anti-Apparition Charm in Hogwarts Castle only covers the grounds and does not cover the Forbidden Forest.”

“It’s not enough just us.” When he reached the stairwell, Hugo looked at his sister. “Sis, you go and notify the headmaster first. We may have a lot of things to deal with next.”

“Understood, I’ll go find the professors now.” Hermione nodded vigorously and ran towards the headmaster’s office upstairs to report the news.

Hugo and Veneto quickly used a rope to come to the ground directly from the wall of the castle, and then rushed towards the place where Harry and the fake Fleur had just left.

“The range of the Anti-Apparition Charm in the castle decreases from the core to the periphery, which means that although Apparition is possible on the edge of the Forbidden Forest, it is estimated that you have to go deeper into the Forbidden Forest to ensure safety if you want to Apparate with someone.”

“Which means we have enough time to act now.” Looking at the map of the range that Veneto and Firefly had spent a lot of time testing out of the Hogwarts Anti-Apparition Charm in his mind, Hugo showed a serious expression.

Although he didn't know how this fake Fleur tricked Harry into the Forbidden Forest, at the beginning, the other party at most used inducement instead of coercive means, otherwise Harry would have been heard by the people in the carriage as long as he struggled.

This naturally left Hugo with valuable rescue time. Now the only unknown is whether they can intercept them in time before Harry is taken away.

After all, Harry and the fake Fleur had already entered the jungle for a while when Hugo and the others realized something was wrong. So whether the other party is still in progress or has already left is temporarily unknown.
