Chapter 1387 Ready to try
Abbott already knew the reason for the Death Eaters' mass production of Inferi through inside information. Although it has something to do with Snape's suggestion to the Death Eaters to accumulate strength, the blame cannot be entirely placed on him.
Snape is not a professional scapegoat after all.
The new headmaster of Hogwarts just didn't want the Death Eaters to have a head-on confrontation with the anti-Voldemort forces and involve Hogwarts in this confrontation, because he had promised that Dumbledore would do whatever he could to Possibly keeping Hogwarts students safe.
No one expected that the Death Eaters' understanding of Snape's accumulated strength was actually such an accumulated strength.
Actually, it's not that the Death Eaters want to accumulate strength in this way, but that they have no choice and have no choice but to do so.
Since the last incident in Hogsmeade, the Death Eaters who have learned their lesson dare not continue to recruit other dark creatures rashly.
Without the suppression of the Dark Lord, continuing to recruit that group of dark creatures or dark wizards will only cause them greater trouble.
Organize dark wizards for training like the Defense Association?
That is even more impossible.
Even the Dark Lord would find it difficult to do this, otherwise the group of dark wizards would not just be dark wizards, but well-trained Aurors.
After the Death Eaters no longer relied on the dark wizards, they soon discovered to their joy that creating the Inferi was indeed a good idea. They are indeed restrained by light and fire, but if an ordinary wizard knows the weakness of the Inferi, it really takes a lot of effort to destroy an Inferi.
Once the number of Inferi increases, most wizards will have to run away after encountering them, even if they know their weaknesses.
Even if people from the Defense Association and the Order of the Phoenix come to cause trouble, let them toss it slowly. Anyway, Muggle corpses are like weeds on the ground. You can have as many as you want. If there is not enough, just cut some.
Yes, both Yaxley and McNeil felt that rather than letting the enemy torment themselves, it would be better to let them torment the group of Inferi, and wait for the Dark Lord to return to England before finding a way to deal with them.
After Albert learned the news from the Death Eaters, he was also stunned by their brain circuits.
If the Death Eaters really did that, he really had no other solution. Unless he killed them directly, there was no way to stop the Death Eaters from continuing to harm ordinary people. But killing the Death Eaters now was not a good idea, because their goal was to kill Damn Voldemort, once all the Death Eaters are dead, Voldemort will definitely be frightened into hiding, so he can only continue to wait patiently for the opportunity.
However, since there is no way to stop Death Eaters from producing inferi in large numbers, he doesn't mind using the inferi as training tools for association members.
For the members of the Defense Association who have had combat training for more than half a year, the Inferi is indeed a very good training tool. It can effectively improve their combat experience and courage, which will help the association members to bravely take advantage of black wizards in the future. Use your wand to fight against the enemy, even if the opponent is Voldemort, you dare to use magic to smear the opponent's face.
As Albert expected, the news that the Death Eaters were producing a large number of Inferi quickly spread throughout the Defense Association. Not long after, the Order of the Phoenix soon learned of this incident, but to everyone's surprise, they actually remained indifferent to it.
The Order of the Phoenix obviously cannot solve the problem of the Inferi. Otherwise, during the First Wizarding War, when Dumbledore was still alive, there would not have been so many Inferi.
After realizing that the people of the Order of the Phoenix were unreliable, members of the Defense Association held an emergency meeting to discuss how to eliminate the Inferi.
Everyone agreed that as long as they were careful, the Inferi would be more suitable tools for actual combat training than Dementors.
There is no way, people are too eager to fight.
After mastering magic, the most depressing thing is that there is no place to use it.
Every time he goes out for an operation, out of safety concerns, Albert will basically not take members with low levels of black magic defense.
This directly leads to the level of polarization among association members.
After repeatedly confirming that Albert approved what they were doing, various fire spells were gathered together and became the priority for most association members to practice.
Because they all know that before the mysterious man returns to England, this is likely to be one of the few opportunities for everyone to fight the dark creatures.
“I know everyone can’t wait.”
When Albert appeared at the headquarters again and called everyone together to talk about this matter, his tone was still extremely calm, "But your enemies are not only the Inferi, you may also encounter Death Eaters or dark wizards. , once they attack you together with the Inferi, they will become extremely deadly."
After pouring cold water on everyone, Albert began to explain how to deal with the Inferi and what should be paid attention to.
Although these corpses resurrected by black magic are not difficult to deal with, once there are too many, they will be a big trouble because they are difficult to kill completely.
In the "Self-Defense Guide", Albert mentioned the method of dealing with the Inferi: the Fire Charm.
When many wizards use fire-making spells, the most they can do is shoot some flames from their wands, which may temporarily drive away the Inferi, but cannot completely eliminate it.
So, how to make the fire-making spell lethal is the reason why Albert is standing here, because not everyone can effectively deal with the Inferi, and the fire-making spell will be a good way for them.
“I know you may have mastered some pretty powerful fire spells, but what I’m going to talk about today is how to use the fire-making spell to defeat enemies. I believe everyone is already familiar with this spell…”
Albert explained to everyone and demonstrated how to make the fire-making spell powerful enough to kill the enemy.
With an explosion-like sound, an orange fireball blew up the target and set it on fire.
“This is a bit like an explosion spell, but the explosion spell can only blow up the Inferi at most, but this can also set the Inferi on fire.
Of course, its significance is more about igniting the Inferi through long-range projection. It is undoubtedly unwise to face a large number of Inferi at close range..."
“Did Death Eaters create a lot of Inferi?” someone couldn’t help but ask after Albert stopped.
"A lot. Hundreds, thousands, maybe even more. Never try to figure out the lower limit of a dark wizard." Albert looked at the Hufflepuff girl and continued, "As far as I know so far, Those Death Eaters are hiding hundreds of Inferi in two secret places, and one of them will be your next target."
“You found it?”
“Yes, but you’re not ready yet.”
Albert continued to explain and demonstrate various techniques for using the fire-making spell, which made many members who thought they knew the fire-making spell dumbfounded, and even gave them the illusion that they had just started.
After a simple attempt, the situation turned out to be just as Albert had guessed. It was not difficult to master some of the skills of using the fire-making spell, but they never thought that the fire-making spell could be used for other purposes besides making fire.
After some reminders, people figured out why Albert taught them to use the fire-making spell to deal with the Inferi.
Simple, familiar, fast and effective.
Even if you really face a large number of Inferi, don’t worry. You can completely create a wall of fire to completely divide and surround the Inferi.
