Harry Potter’s Defense Professor

Chapter 358: Muggle intervention

"You can't blame her, Mr. Rand." Kingsley explained for the innocent Maggie, "No matter how you change your assistant, it will definitely be a wizard, or should I say, whoever the Muggle Intelligence Agency wants to be your assistant, Who can definitely become your assistant."

"What a joke!" Rand looked downcast. He was a grown man, but facing wizards everywhere, he felt like a little girl being bullied.

"The reason why all your memories are not erased is that the upper-level officials of the Muggle Intelligence Agency believe that well-trained Muggles from MI5 can help the law enforcement department of the Ministry of Magic solve the problem of insufficient manpower..." Kingsley continued to drop the bombshell, "Among other things, you helped the Auror Department find or capture many wizards who broke the law, which saved us a lot of effort."

"Really..." Rand said weakly. "You're welcome."

"The reason why I called Rand here is because many MI5 agents know the existence of wizards. Since you are looking for help, why not ask someone who already knows about your existence..." the Prime Minister said, "This is the easiest way. Keep things under control and reduce the stress on you in the aftermath.”

"What are you going to do?" Rand quickly woke up from his anger. "I heard that the wizarding world has recently been controlled by a demon king who cannot be named. During this period, many cases in the UK were caused by him. What are you going to do? Resistance? For God’s sake, we have to get rid of this guy quickly, and we can’t let the war burn to the ordinary people of Britain!”

"How do you know so much? Is there a wizard in your family?" Lockhart was a little surprised.

"Hehe - there are many wizards in my 'family'." Rand smiled.

"You will discuss the details later. This Mr. Lockhart -" the Prime Minister said nervously, "he actually wanted to detonate a nuclear bomb under London. This should be considered a terrorist act, detonating it at a depth of about two hundred meters. , how many yields of nuclear bombs will not have an impact on the ground?"

"What?" Rand glanced at Lockhart in surprise. His scalp was numb at the idea and he couldn't help scratching his head. "Why use nuclear bombs?"

"Do you have any more powerful weapons? I want to destroy a room protected by magic." Lockhart asked. "It's a very well-protected room, and we couldn't destroy it even though we tried our best."

"More powerful..." Rand paused for a moment, but of course there was none. "Nuclear weapons range from a dozen tons to tens of millions of tons. Those madmen in the Soviet Union once wanted to test a billion-ton weapon, but unfortunately they couldn't find a test site and gave up. Okay, let me think about which one is better..."

"So heavy?" Scrimgeour frowned, "How do you bring it in?"

"What he's talking about is not the total amount, but an indicator of the power of the weapon." Kingsley said. "It means that it can produce the same power as the explosion of TNT with a certain weight. You only need to know that TNT is a powerful explosive."

Scrimgeour nodded.

"If you want to have the least impact on the ground at a depth of two hundred meters underground, you can only choose the least powerful one, a tactical nuclear bomb with a yield of ten tons." Rand suggested, "It is the safest."

"The youngest?" Lockhart didn't quite understand, but the word "smallest" made him feel unreliable. "Let's use a slightly larger one, a hundred tons...but you should first talk about the possible consequences."

"If it exceeds 10,000 tons, it will lift the ground, so we won't discuss it." Rand is not a professional, but he can still estimate the approximate destructive power. "A thousand-ton level may cause ground collapse. A hundred-ton level will also cause obvious earthquakes, which may cause damage to buildings..."

"Then it's fifty tons. A slight shock should be fine." Lockhart said, "Don't forget that the power of the explosion will be weakened by magic."

Rand shook his head. Discussing this with such a thorough layman was like playing the piano to an ox. In the eyes of their wizards, nuclear bombs may be just slightly larger bombs... but it seems right to say that it is a big bomb.

"We also have to consider the pollution to the surrounding environment and groundwater. It's not that simple."

"There are Muggle banishing spells around the Ministry of Magic.

All drainage facilities and so on will be avoided, and it should not affect your water. "

"Radiocontamination will spread!"

"Just the ten-ton one." Kingsley said, "Although I have never seen this thing explode. But I have been in the Muggle world for a long time, and I know that the destructive power of this thing is definitely greater than you think. Much more.”

"Okay, since you all think so." Lockhart shrugged, not insisting on things he didn't understand. "Then let's discuss the details of the attack on the Ministry of Magic. How can MI5 help?"

"What help do you need? Attack the Ministry of Magic... God, we don't even know how to get in!" Rand said helplessly. "In addition to knowing how deep and how deep the entrance to the Ministry of Magic headquarters is under the Westminster Theater, Rand said I don’t know anything about how it works, its scale, etc. According to the information from the Muggle wizards we instigated the rebellion. It seems that the Ministry of Magic can only be accessed through teleportation?"

"It seems so. Anyway, the three of us here have worked in the Ministry of Magic. Even we don't know how to enter other than the fireplace and the phone booth." Lockhart nodded, "But we can provide you with the depth of the Ministry of Magic. and structural information, you can dig through the ground to access it.”

"The Ministry of Magic is covered by a banishing spell. Any Muggle who digs close to the outer wall of the Ministry of Magic will automatically avoid the area in front of it..." Kingsley reminded.

"The expulsion spell is ineffective against Squibs who have a certain amount of magical power in their bodies." Scrimgeour said, "Choose Squibs and your trusted Muggle wizards who instigated rebellion, and let them carry out the digging operation. You can even ask Aurors to lead team, to temporarily inject magic into the excavation personnel to resist the Muggle banishing curse. For specific details, after we separate later, Kingsley will follow Rand back to MI5 and assist him until the battle begins."

"Okay, Maggie, are there any other wizards in MI5?"

"It turns out there was, but after the collapse of the original Ministry of Magic, many resigned and went into hiding. Now basically every important government department only has one or two wizards from the Muggle Intelligence Service monitoring the heads of departments." It's like a decoration. The witch who was sitting tremblingly on the side finally spoke.

"Very good, then we will cooperate happily, old colleague." Kingsley said with a smile.

"But what will happen if our agents go in?" Rand asked, "Are our individual weapons effective against wizards?"

"Useful. In fact, there are many cases of wizards and Muggles having conflicts and being killed. However, the Muggles who did so were killed, the memories of the relevant personnel were cleared, and the files became top secrets - that's why Muggles were created There is an illusion that there is nothing that can be done to wizards." Scrimgeour said, "The Wizarding Law stipulates that Muggles are not allowed to kill wizards, even in self-defense. Criminal wizards must be dealt with by the Department of Enforcement. I know this rule is very unfair. Fair... but unfortunately, Muggles are not qualified to participate in the formulation of wizarding laws, and this provision is supported by almost all wizards. You know, the number of wizards is too small compared to Muggles - you can't start this, even if If the perpetrator of the crime is a pure-blood wizard, the death penalty will not even be executed, but will be changed to imprisonment, and will be released after the Wizengamot determines that the wizard is not a threat..."

Dumbledore must have used his status in the Wizengamot to sell a lot of favors to wizards, and that's how Mundungus joined the Order of the Phoenix.

"Oh my God..." The Prime Minister was speechless.

"This war must be fought even if it is only for our own benefit. We understand this..." Rand said, "But if you still have such a policy towards ordinary people after helping you get back the Ministry of Magic, I feel it will Very unmotivated.”

"I understand, and that's why even though I could use the Imperius Curse to control you, I didn't do it." Lockhart said, "I think the current state of the wizarding world is very unreasonable and needs some changes. The intervention of melons..."

"For example, at least give us some benefits and give us a little head start." The Prime Minister said, "At least let us 'Muggles' participate in the legislation of wizards. Even if we can't make the decision, at least we can understand The Ministry of Magic's policy towards us..."

"Anyway, it's nothing. Let's talk about some of my views on the Ministry of Magic." Lockhart organized his thoughts. "Although it's a bit unlucky to discuss dividing the spoils before we get it, it's better than wrangling afterward. And I I believe there will be no problem at least taking back the Ministry of Magic. The only difficulty is whether we can kill the devil who cannot be named."
