Chapter 104 Prison Break (Part 1) (Monthly Pass)
From the North Atlantic Ocean, the sudden cold current hit the entire Western Europe overnight.
This also makes the weather terrible!
The heavy rain has lasted for almost two weeks, and the dark sky seems to be about to collapse.
The sky was covered with dark clouds, and the strong winds and rains whipped the ground, and the rain splashed.
Even the North Sea, which has always been mild, is now rolling and roaring.
On the sea level, a Muggle fishing boat was fighting fiercely with the waves in the storm, as if it would be swallowed by the waves at any time, making the spectators sweat for them.
"This damn weather!"
Connelly Forge angrily threw half of the cigar to the ground. In such a storm, smoking a cigarette became a luxury.
His eyes were still looking at the Muggle fishing boat in the sea.
"When will I have to wait until I can leave this damn island?"
He couldn't help complaining loudly, and forced himself to look away from the Muggle fishing boat in the distance.
Suddenly, a dazzling light flashed through the dark clouds to illuminate the sky and the earth.
At that moment, Forge suddenly saw it clearly. Just less than ten yards away from him, there was a tabby cat sitting on a wall; the patterns around the cat's eyes were wonderful, like wearing a pair of square glasses... The tabby cat was quietly there, in the storm, motionless...
Fuji couldn't help but wipe his glasses.
How could such animals survive on this small island? It's incredible!
But when he looked closely, the "tickled cat" just now had completely disappeared, leaving only an empty wall.
Sure enough, it was just his own illusion...Fuji thought to himself.
He hurried past the wall, unwilling to stay in this storm for too long, and he wanted to rush back to the camp as soon as possible.
At the same time, a few black shadows slowly floated across the sky.
...
Just a few days ago, Mr. Connelly Oswald Forge had just celebrated his fiftieth birthday.
Those who accompanied him to celebrate this birthday were only a few colleagues on the island, as well as a group of monsters that were terrifying, rotten, and unfamiliar with the charm...
This also means that his slightly failed life has been a full fifty years.
More than 30 years ago, the young Fudge had just graduated from Slytherin College in Hogwarts and was full of enthusiasm. He was full of confidence and relied on some of his father's relationships to join the Ministry of Magic as soon as he graduated and became an employee of the Department of Magic Accidents and Disasters. He was very eager to make a career in the Ministry of Magic.
And in the Magic Accidents and Disaster Department, he stayed there for more than 30 years.
During this period, he did not make any principled mistakes, nor did he have any achievements worth mentioning. His career experience can only be said to be mediocre.
To this day, he is still just a deputy leader of the Invisible Task Force under the Magic Accidents and Disasters Department... and many of the male and female witches who joined the Ministry of Magic at the same time are already in high positions. Whenever he thinks of this, Mr. Foggy can't sleep at night.
The only duty of the Invisible Task Force is to ensure that the magical animals and magic-related locations in the magical world are not noticed by Muggles.
Among these locations are Azkaban!
Mr. Connelly Forge is the commissioner of the Invisible Task Force in Azkaban.
No doubt, this is not a pleasant errand.
...
Because Azkaban is a wizard prison.
It is almost the largest wizard prison in the entire UK and even Western Europe... Perhaps only the Yvesburg prison near Marseille can match its scale.
This prison is built on a lonely island in the vast North Sea.
Nearly a hundred criminals were imprisoned here: extreme wizards who maliciously used magic of mass destruction, murderers who committed crimes, and black wizards who violated the 1945 Act and betrayed the wizard class...
In addition, there are several special commissioners stationed on the island by the Ministry of Magic, including Mr. Connelly Fudge; and, a large group of terrifying creatures, which are not popular with wizards, and are even known as "one of the most hateful creatures on the earth"-
"Dementor!"
This creature looks like it is wearing a cloak, its whole body is like it is soaked in water, with scabbed palms and rotten bodies. Wherever they pass, it will suck away all the vitality and remind the wizards and muggles around it of the most terrible thing...
No one would like them, even the Ministry of Magic commissioners who deal with them frequently are no exception.
If we talk about the history of "Azkaban" and "Dementor", then the name of "Axtis" is impossible to avoid.
Aixtis is said to be from the Netherlands and lived in almost the fourteenth to fifteenth centuries... He was one of the earliest resident of Azkaban and an extremely powerful extreme wizard; he had built a fortress on the island.
When Axtis was alive, his favorite thing was to lure, torture and kill the Muggle sailors here, and then use them to conduct a dangerous and extreme magic experiment...
While he was alive, no one knew about the existence of Azkaban. Even because of the spell, the map would not show the existence of the island.
After he died, the hidden curse he cast lost its effect, and the British Ministry of Magic realized the existence of this island and the building.
The wizards sent to the island for investigation were unwilling to mention the tragic appearance on the island afterwards... They only wanted to mention that the place was full of extremely disgusting magical creatures. They named that creature "Dementor" and refused to disclose more.
At that time, many authoritative figures in the British wizarding world believed that this island was an extremely evil place and it would be best to completely destroy it.
But many people are worried that after destroying the island, the dementors on the island will flock to retaliate against the wizarding world; at that time, the "Guardian Spell" was not studied, and wizards generally lack effective means to deal with terrifying creatures such as Dementors.
What's more, before Yurik Gamp founded the Ministry of Magic, the entire British wizarding world was actually completely a mess and had no powerful force at all!
Therefore, Azkaban Island had to be abandoned for many years. The dementors on the island still frequently attacked the passing Muggle ships, tortured the invading Muggle sailors, and sucked away their happiness and souls...
Every wall of Azkaban is filled with torture and pain, which also increases the number of dementors.
