Chapter 568: There Is No Solution for the Ultimate Defeat

"The production period is about half a month away."

Dumbledore looked at the unicorn in front of him with a smile, a look of joy naturally appearing on his face.

He needs the umbilical cord blood of a unicorn - one of the most important ingredients for the Philosopher's Stone.

The refining method of the Sorcerer's Stone was personally given to him by his old friend Nick Flamel. At that time, he also vowed that he would only seal the relevant information, but he did not expect that Nick said with a smile at that time. This sentence that will be used will come true so quickly.

"But," he looked at the unicorn and was stunned, "how can we not use it? How can we not use it... Ariana..."

He knew how powerful the elixir was, and he was also good at making it - it was just that he didn't bother doing it.

But now, it's completely different...

Tom once tried to use the Resurrection Stone to restore his body, but was stopped by him. Now, he wants to use the Resurrection Stone from the Three Sacred Artifacts and the Philosopher's Stone from the end of alchemy to create a miracle that is even more magical than magic...

"It's just that there's not even that guy Gaegler..."

Dumbledore sighed - he was collecting Grindelwald's research on the Deathly Hallows, but the results were very unsatisfactory.

After the war that year, under his supervision, many things belonging to the saints were destroyed, and the research on things like the Deathly Hallows was nowhere to be found...

As for him, after he realized his ambition and pursuit of power, he sealed up his research on the Deathly Hallows indefinitely, and was already far behind in this regard.

Therefore, the biggest problem for him now is that there is nothing or anyone to refer to - to be honest, there are not many people in the entire magical world who can reach his research capabilities.

Nick may be able to help, but he has calmly chosen another path and started his journey in a new world.

The rest of us…

"Could it be..."

"No...absolutely not..."

He shook his head and dismissed the sudden thought of asking Grindelwald for help.

"Let's make the magic stone first..."

In the end, he chose to put the matter on hold and wait for his future self to deal with it.

"Goooooo!"

The hoot of an owl in flight woke up Dumbledore, who was still thinking. He raised his head and saw a rather familiar and troublesome owl.

That was Minerva's owl, one of the few owls that could find Dumbledore directly.

‘No… I just reviewed those documents last week…’ ‘

The First White Wizard began to frown, and began to think about how angry Minerva would be if she pretended not to receive the owl letter...

After some calculation, and considering the consequences of Minerva's anger, Dumbledore unwrapped the letter, and unwrapped the letter that looked not too anxious from the envelope.

As expected, the content of the letter was still so boring - go back to school and review those documents.

'I knew it…'

The happiness disappeared all of a sudden, but I still had to go back to work.

'It's a pity that Hagrid can't be asked to take better care of them - but she can still provide a little help to prevent the reckless new guest from scaring her...'

Dumbledore waved his wand and added a blessing spell to the unicorn that was about to give birth, and then reluctantly walked towards the castle - delaying for a while and then apparating back, saving Minerva. What hallucinations will occur over there in the future? Increase the intensity of the summons...

——

"Although..." In Professor McGonagall's office, the vice-principal was organizing her speech, but she, who used to be serious and capable, was a little incoherent at the moment and could not speak properly.

"Okay, okay, professors, don't be nervous next time..."

…

Her words aroused William's extremely strong desire to complain - Professor McGonagall's explanation successfully dispelled his suspicion of Dumbledore, so he now accompanied Professor McGonagall to ask about things without being nervous at all.

Professor McGonagall herself, on the other hand, seemed much more nervous than the three professors - as if what she wanted to do was not to question Dumbledore, but to prepare for a rebellion with three thugs...

Although he compared himself to a thug, William felt that the other two would have no objection at all - the prefix "ambushing Dumbledore" is not an ordinary adjective...

"coming!"

When an owl made a sound, Professor McGonagall trotted over anxiously, took the owl, and then unwrapped the letter.

"Albus will be back soon."

She glanced at the simple reply, her tone a little nervous.

This rare scene made William and the three of them want to laugh a little, but they held it back.

About twenty minutes later, there was a knock on the office door.

"Please come in."

William and the others, who were still relaxed, took out their wands almost at the same time, then looked at each other and put their wands back slightly.

"Professor, I..."

Hermione stood at the door with a look of surprise on her face. As a top student, although she did not have as much sense of combat as Harry, she still followed the professors' instructions and discerned that the three self-defense professors were all ready for battle. …

"What happened, Miss Granger?"

Professor McGonagall tried to keep her tone calm.

"I just encountered some minor problems with the Transfiguration. Since you are talking to the professors, I will ask you another time..."

She was still very smart, but to her surprise, Professor McGonagall had no intention of keeping her.

‘It’s weird...what’s going on, everyone is acting weird? ’

"Ah, hello principal."

"Hello to you, Miss Granger."

Dumbledore nodded politely towards Hermione, and then walked towards Professor McGonagall's office.

"And the principal?"

Hermione opened her mouth wide, and then covered it - Oh my God, what is going on? Are the principal and the others going to ambush Fudge, the Minister of Magic?

——

"Minerva, ah, you are here too. Are you applying for new funds? Or are there new exam arrangements? If you are not nervous, we should actually have something to drink..."

When Dumbledore saw William and the others, he was just slightly surprised, and then he laughed.

However, Professor McGonagall did not smile. To Dumbledore's expectation, Professor McGonagall's expression remained as steady as ever.

"Sorry, Albus…"

She stared at Dumbledore, "I got a report from the Pig's Head Bar..."

"Report letter?"

Dumbledore was surprised for a moment, and then he became serious, "Severus is one of my own who can be trusted. I trust him as much as I trust you."

?

"It's not Professor Snape, but you... Albus, the letter said that you are collecting some of Grindelwald's things, and you are also collecting legendary materials related to the Sorcerer's Stone."

…

Silence, still silence.

"Sorry, Minerva, I have my own reasons for doing this. The only thing I can tell you is that I am, as always, opposed to Grindelwald's views."

"Then it seems like this is the only way..."

? ? ?

William looked at Professor McGonagall in surprise, no, are you going to do it now? And there’s no password or anything?

Not only him, but everyone else, including Dumbledore, looked surprised.

"Facts speak louder than words, Albus."

? ? ?

What is this for?

William was confused.

"I'd like to ask you to take over as Dean for a month, Albus. By the way, there are also classes, please."

? ? ?

No, Professor McGonagall, are you serious? No duel is this scary!

However, things developed just as William thought.

"Albus, I'm going to give myself a month's leave. Please fulfill your duties as principal and dean well. I will sort out the follow-up work for you tonight. I'm going to enjoy my vacation life."

Everyone in the office widened their eyes, including Dumbledore.

To be precise, in addition to disbelief on Dumbledore's face, there was also a look called despair.

'You are too cruel, Professor McGonagall...'

William silently warned himself—never offend the principal.
