"What? I knew he couldn't be trusted!"

Ignas jumped up first and was about to point at Snape's nose and curse him on the spot. Some of the other people's expressions were also very ugly, as if they disagreed with Snape's actions.

It was understandable. After all, no one who joined the Order of the Phoenix hated Voldemort deeply. Now that the young man in front of them had been exposed for their shameful behavior, they naturally had no good impression of him.

Just when the situation was about to get out of control, Dumbledore finally took action:

"Okay, Severus is what I asked him to do, so there is no need to have any doubts."

Dumbledore's speech immediately made the scene quiet a lot, and Louis also found some clues from the somewhat chaotic scene just now.

In the following time, the Order of the Phoenix discussed the current situation of the Death Eaters, but it was obvious that this kind of matter could not be resolved in an hour or two. Moreover, Louis discovered that not everyone in the Order was of the same mind.

"You should have seen something, Louis."

After the meeting, Dumbledore sat at the table and asked Lewis. Only some old Order members were left in the entire venue.

"The Order of the Phoenix has been divided into two factions. In fact, I just saw it when I clicked on Professor Snape."

Louis directly pointed out the problem. He was right. The number of members of the Order of the Phoenix has surged. Most of the new members hold important positions in the Ministry of Magic. Their first consideration is not the Order of the Phoenix organization that resists the Death Eaters. , but the Ministry of Magic itself.

However, due to Dumbledore's identity, there would be no reaction on the surface, but in terms of interests, they always stood on the side of the Ministry of Magic, or on the side of their own safety.

Although the Ministry of Magic is now on a united front with the Order of the Phoenix, this alliance is fragile. Although Rufus Scrimgeour is an outstanding and resolute Minister of Magic, he alone cannot bring down the weak Ministry of Magic. Take them up and be on the front line in the fight against Voldemort.

"Observed carefully, indeed." Dumbledore nodded, "The Ministry of Magic headed by Ignace is a conservative and old-fashioned group. They do not allow any behavior that may be beneficial to Voldemort, so in many cases We will be restricted in terms of movement."

Louis nodded. In their eyes, they seemed not to understand this kind of behavior. Even if it was an undercover operation requested by Dumbledore, it is true that in a duel between the two forces, there will definitely be nannies who reveal each other's intelligence to disrupt the situation. Voldemort knew this, and Dumbledore knew it even better.

But it is precisely because of this that Voldemort unconditionally trusts Snape, because in his eyes, any behavior of Severus Snape is a way to defraud Dumbledore's trust, so even in the meeting Exposing Snape's purpose would also be regarded by Voldemort as an undercover operation by his own team.

Snape was a key link in defeating Voldemort, but he was not the only one.

"It is understandable that if the Order of the Phoenix wants to take action now, it must avoid the people at the Ministry of Magic."

Lewis said, but now the problem comes again. If you bypass that group of people, the number of Order members will be far from enough. Even if each of them has absolute strength beyond ordinary people, there is no way to implement them well. plan, so the entire Order of the Phoenix is ​​currently in a passive defensive situation.

"By the way, Professor Dumbledore, I have new news to tell you this time."

"About Arctus's memory?" Dumbledore said, "Sirius told me that you fainted while looking at Arctus Black's notes. This happened in Slytherin's study before. Appeared before."

Louis did not deny that Arctus was inextricably linked to the legacy of Hogwarts. Based on his memories of the first two paragraphs, Louis could already deduce that he was the first guardian of the legacy of Hogwarts. .

Louis' focus, however, was on something else.

"A war between ghosts and humans? Louis, are you saying that a war between wizards and ghosts once broke out in Hogwarts? Is this possible?"

This time round

When Sirius became confused, Louis looked over at him. He put on the mask again, and he no longer looked so scary.

He looked at Meserys beside him. The Lestrange woman shook her head. She had some knowledge of the history of Hogwarts, but was equally confused by what her son was talking about now.

"I have carefully studied "Hogwarts: A School History" and indeed there is no mention of such things." Lupine said aside, "According to wizards' records, battles with ghosts only broke out twice, once It started 1,500 years ago, when the great wizard Merlin was not even born. The wizard defeated the ghost clan and broke up the largest ghost tribe at that time. Since then, there has never been a group of ghost tribes."

"The second time was seven hundred years ago. That battle caused ghosts to completely disappear from the world. Ghosts can only appear in a few specific magical residences, such as Hogwarts. Most of the ghosts have been driven back. Beyond the Curtain is one of the entrances guarded by the Ministry of Magic's Department of Mysteries."

Lupine did have an in-depth understanding of the history of the magical world, and he was also the person with the best theoretical knowledge among the four-person Marauder team at the time.

"This period of history should not be recorded. As far as I know, the last memory is that Hogwarts was attacked by the undead army at that time. Although it is still known who did it, it should be The culprit who killed Bloody Balor and Helena Ravenclaw."

Louis' words stunned everyone present except Dumbledore. Dumbledore did not interrupt and motioned for Louis to continue speaking.

"Obviously the battle was won, and I think the most important thing is Arctus Black, the power of that legacy."

"So, the inheritance contains the key to dealing with the ghost clan and even super ghosts!"

Several people in the Order of the Phoenix suddenly realized what Louis was talking about. Voldemort's four knights are the most difficult to deal with now. The most bizarre among the knights and the one they know least about is the one who is possessed by the super ghost. Shah Jorkins.

"I even think that I can roughly guess the identity of that super ghost."

There was silence in the conference room, as Louis brought more and more information and surprises to them.

"You have already satisfied me, Louis." Dumbledore said. "It seems that letting you explore the secret of the inheritance is the right decision."

"By the way, remember to look for Mr. Scamander when you return to school. I think you are ready to accept the next test of the legacy."
