Chapter 1047: Azkaban Prison Break

Views:

"We're almost there, keep up, don't fall behind."

Avery flew in front on a broomstick to lead the way so that the prison break team would not get lost in the stormy sea.

At this moment, they need to cross the storm that surrounds Azkaban all year round to reach the notorious wizard prison in the wizarding world: Azkaban.

The exact location of Azkaban Prison was hidden by wizards from the Ministry of Magic a long time ago. Ordinary wizards have no idea where this sea prison is. But finding the exact location of Azkaban is actually not as difficult as imagined.

At least, it wasn't a difficult task for the Death Eaters who had begun to infiltrate the Ministry of Magic.

"Damn the storm, how long will it take us to get to Azkaban?"

A masked Death Eater cursed under his breath; he was almost blown into the sea by a storm.

Without the Ministry of Magic's route, ordinary wizards who want to invade Azkaban can only risk crossing the storm outside Azkaban, and it is easy to get lost without guidance.

No one answered, the Death Eaters were all concentrating on flying.

After passing through the storm and seeing the island in the center of the storm, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"Next, we need to... break into Azkaban prison and rescue those imprisoned in..." Avery put his wand against his throat, trying his best to let his voice penetrate the rain and reach the ears of every Death Eater.

"Why don't you let the Dementors just let them go?" a soaking wet Death Eater couldn't help but ask.

"The Dementors need to remain in Azkaban prison until the Dark Lord officially returns. Rebellion now will only cause panic and vigilance in the wizarding world, which is not conducive to... In short, the Dementors need to stay here." Lucius Malfoy tried hard to control his broomstick to prevent himself from being blown away by the storm.

However, even he didn't realize how ridiculous what he had just said was.

"You tell a good joke."

Once a large-scale prison break occurred in Azkaban, it would be hard not to cause panic and vigilance in the wizarding community, unless Fudge was an idiot.

"Watch out, they're coming," Avery warned.

As if they had discovered that a stranger was approaching Azkaban, a large number of Dementors poured out of the prison like a tide, turning into black cloth and slid towards everyone.

The Death Eaters all drew their wands. Although they all knew that the Dementors had joined the You-Know-Who, they still felt a little nervous when they saw a large number of Dementors approaching before everything was settled.

The Death Eaters breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that the Dementors had no intention of attacking them. If anything went wrong, they could only use Apparition to escape. Even the dark wizards had no way to resist such a large number of Dementors.

"As agreed, we are here to take away our companions imprisoned." Avery shouted to the group of Dementors.

However, the Dementors did not move out of the way.

"The Dark Lord needs you to stay in Azkaban temporarily. You can only leave this place after he announces his return. The Dark Lord allows you to obtain more food from Muggles and reproduce without restriction." Avery stated the favorable conditions that the Dark Lord offered to the Dementors.

Avery's words took effect and the Dementors made way.

"Hurry up, don't do unnecessary things, don't leave the Ministry of Magic time to react, and don't forget the damn prison break prophecy." Avery rode his broom towards the gap on the top floor of Azkaban Prison. He was not blocked by anything along the way, and all the Dementors seemed to have become blind.

When the masked Death Eaters appeared in the prison where the prisoners were held, the whole prison was in an uproar and the sound of countless iron chains echoed in the prison cells.

The Death Eaters ignored the noisy prisoners and began to look for the Death Eaters imprisoned here. They used magic to open the prison door and release the imprisoned Death Eaters.

What really matters in Azkaban prison is the Dementors, the jailers. The cells and rusty iron doors that hold the prisoners have no effect in the face of magic.

Therefore, after solving the problem of Dementors, this prison break was actually not a big problem.

Ha ha ha ha!

Bellatrix laughed wildly after breaking free of her chains.

"Shut up and follow."

Lucius Malfoy walked quickly outside, ready to meet up with the others and leave here together. Then the mission would be completed.

Bellatrix's crazy laughter rang out in the cell, making the imprisoned wizards even more anxious. They frantically pulled at the chains on their bodies and shouted towards the corridor outside: Let me out.

The Death Eaters were indifferent to other unfortunate people, they only rescued their companions who were imprisoned. If they fought against the Ministry of Magic, they would not mind releasing others, but not now.

"The Aurors from the Ministry of Magic may arrive at any time. Do you want to stay here?"

Lucius Malfoy glared at the crazy woman in front of him. If she was not Narcissa's sister, he would not even bother to say a word.

The Death Eaters who completed the prison break quickly ran to the top floor of Azkaban Prison, intending to leave the prison through the gap as soon as possible.

According to the original plan, they would rescue their companions and evacuate within a quarter of an hour. However, they obviously could not complete the jailbreak in a short time. Fortunately, even the Ministry of Magic could not react in a short time.

Malfoy was not worried about the Ministry of Magic, he was more worried about being messed up by those guys in the Order of the Phoenix. If he knew who was behind it, he would have to kill that guy himself.

"Is everyone here?"

At the gap on the top floor of Azkaban, Avery was taking out a number of broomsticks from his bag and handing them to the Death Eaters who had just escaped from the prison. They needed to fly out of the prohibited Apparition range of Azkaban before they could use Apparition to leave.

"Bella's not here."

Rodolphus Lestrange looked around and saw that his wife was not among the crowd.

"She's behind us and will be here soon. You go first." Malfoy said irritably, "Don't waste time. Someone predicted this prison break. I'm worried that the Aurors may arrive at any time."

The prisoners looked extremely stunned. They had no idea what was going on, but they still rode on their brooms towards the storm.

They were afraid that the Ministry of Magic would really believe that damn prophecy and send Aurors to surround them. By then, it would be hard to say who the Dementors would help.

Bellatrix finally appeared at the gap on the top floor of Azkaban prison. She looked at the Dementors in the storm and laughed heartily.

She already felt the breath of freedom!

After the mass breakout in Azkaban, Stringer, the head of the Auror Office, was woken up from his bed in the middle of the night.

In fact, Stringer didn't sleep at all tonight. He quickly got dressed and walked towards the fireplace, ready to rush to the Ministry of Magic via the Floo Network.

At the moment the green flames rose, Stringer moved his eyes away from the radio on the fireplace, stepped into the rising flames and disappeared.

After receiving the radio, Stringer received the approximate time of the Azkaban breakout. However, for some reasons, Stringer ultimately chose to ignore the reminders.

There was no evidence to prove that those things were credible. He would not mobilize the Aurors of the Ministry of Magic for them, nor would he take risks for them.

Politics is such a strange thing.

This prison break is not all bad. At least Fudge is in trouble. He believes that the other party will step down.

However, the price paid is a bit high, and many people are bound to suffer from insomnia tonight.

Albert Anderson is not one of those who suffer from insomnia.

"Early in the morning, there was a big surprise!"

The next morning, Albert opened the Daily Prophet delivered by the house elf and saw the "shocking" news on the front page. After noticing Yin Zebel's inquiring look, he spread the newspaper on the table, pointed to the ten black and white photos that filled the front page, and said softly, "It seems that my prediction has come true."

Albert was not surprised by this result.

Even though he secretly reminded Stringer that he wanted to watch the Aurors fight the Death Eaters, he ultimately failed to do so.

Albert was not surprised by this result.

Sometimes, anything can be done to strike down a political opponent, and there was no reason for Stringer to take the risk.

Anyway, when the prisoner of Azkaban escaped, the first person to suffer was Fudge, not Stringer.

"A large-scale prison break occurred in Azkaban." Yin Zebel read out the headline of the front-page news, turned his head to look at Albert, sighed softly and said: "Failed, right!"

Yin Zebeier's words were somewhat puzzling.

"It's not surprising. I expected this result from the beginning. You can't expect everyone to be a saint like Dumbledore." Albert smiled and pointed to his cheek and said, "If you want to comfort me."

“What a mess!”

Yin Zebel kissed Albert on the cheek and gave him a big hug, feeling the reassuring sense of security.

The safe house is very safe and you don’t have to worry about the outside world at all.

Whether there was a large-scale prison break in Azkaban had little to do with her.

"What a mess, what happened?"

Katrina pulled out a chair and sat down, staring down at the food on the plate without looking at the two people opposite her.

For some reason, she suddenly felt that she had no appetite in the morning.

"There has been a large-scale prison break in Azkaban." Albert handed the Daily Prophet to Katrina.

Although this world is not yet a place where the strong are respected, after accumulating enough strength and making preparations, Albert no longer cares much about the chaotic situation in the magic world. Sometimes the more chaotic it is, the more he can take advantage of it to benefit himself.

In fact, he had planned to do so before.

As for the panel task that had just been triggered, Albert directly ignored it. It would undoubtedly be a very difficult task to catch the jailbreak prisoner.

Although the reward for the mission was generous, Albert did not think of completing it unless he could play the role of Dumbledore and catch all the Death Eaters in one fell swoop, but this was obviously an unrealistic fantasy.

"It seems that you are right. Fudge should step down." Katrina looked at the content in the newspaper and couldn't help shaking her head. "I really don't understand what is in Fudge's mind. He spent six months telling everyone that Harry Potter and Dumbledore were liars, and this happened. I remember you also warned that there would be a prison break in Azkaban."

"It's normal." Yin Zebel said.

"From the perspective of conspiracy theories, Cornelius Fudge is actually very smart, smarter than most people." Albert took a sip of the milk in front of him, and then ate a piece of bread. Under the gaze of the McDougal sisters, he said slowly, "Fudge may have believed that the mysterious man had returned a long time ago."

"But, why did Fudge..."

"He doesn't have the guts to be an enemy of You-Know-Who," Albert interrupted. "Without Dumbledore's level, they will all end up miserably. Whether it's Amelia Bones or Rufus Scrimgeour, the outcome won't be good. They are both candidates for the next Minister of Magic, but because of this, they are on You-Know-Who's kill list."

"If Amelia Bones is unlucky, you will hear about her murder this summer, and Rufus Scrimgeour will not survive more than a few years as Minister of Magic, and the next Minister will inevitably be a puppet controlled by the Imperius Curse, and the next after that will be a Death Eater."

"So, our Minister of Magic is doing everything he can to deny that Voldemort has returned, and as long as he keeps attacking Dumbledore, You-Know-Who won't touch him."

Katrina opened her mouth, but finally listened silently to Albert continue.

"If one day it can be proved that You-Know-Who is back, Cornelius Fudge will simply resign from the position of Minister of Magic and leave all the mess to the next Minister of Magic. In fact, Muggle Prime Ministers often do this."

"Of course, Cornelius Fudge's reputation is ruined, but at least he escaped unscathed. He and his family will not be targeted by the Death Eaters and will be able to save their lives." Albert showed a meaningful smile. "What's more interesting is that because he messed up the Ministry of Magic, the next Minister will need to hire him as a consultant for a period of time to help quickly figure out the Minister of Magic's powers and the current situation so that he can take over the Ministry of Magic more quickly."

Katrina was almost stunned by Albert's guess.

I originally thought that Fudge was just a fool whose head was blinded by power, but after listening to Albert's analysis, it suddenly seemed to make sense.

Can one really be a fool to become a minister

Even if the level is not good enough, it will never be too bad.

"Of course, he could also be a fool. After all, "stupidity" is one of the characteristics of politicians. They tend to be more inclined to what is beneficial to themselves." Albert drank the milk in one breath: "Of course, I am not qualified to say anything about others. After all, there are only a few selfless people like Dumbledore. Who can make the right decision at the right time?"

Katrina couldn't help rolling her eyes and continued looking at the photos of nine wizards and one witch in the newspaper. She sighed silently in her heart, knowing that she would have to stay with them for a long time.
