Harry of the Sherlock Holmes
Chapter 77 The Battle Begins
The setting sun has not yet completely sunk, the smoky red light passes through the branches and branches of the Forbidden Forest, and a few spots of light fall among the shadows of the trees, revealing an unusual atmosphere.
"Do you think the werewolf will participate this time?" Sirius asked his companion while casting a protective spell on the surroundings again.
"It's hard to say," Lupine shook his head lightly, and cast his gaze into the depths of the Forbidden Forest, "The last group attack caused a lot of losses to the werewolves, and the groups that have always supported Greyback have also begun to have opinions on him. It may not be possible to gather many more people, and the moon is not full now. But... perhaps for a dark race like werewolves, Voldemort's rule has always been a temptation..."
Sirius regretted mentioning this to him, he put his arms around the other's shoulder: "Remus!"
"I'm not talking about myself." Lupine smiled gently at him, "I know I'm different from them. And this difference is brought about by you. Professor Dumbledore, James, you... still Remember the scary legend of the Shrieking Shed?" He looked softly at the Whomping Willow not far away.
"Aha, of course. Everyone is scared to death. Thanks to the help of Professor Dumbledore - who is there!" The smile on the corner of his mouth has not disappeared, Sirius has already grasped his wand, lowered his body, and held it tightly Stare at the Whomping Willow's scar.No one is more familiar with this place than the Taoist, and he believes that he has just heard something.
"It's us, it's us, Mr. Black." After a while, the Weasley twins came out of the tunnel with bright red hair, followed by a group of people, and their elder brother Percy followed with a straight face at last.
"Why are you back?" Sirius glanced at them, did not attack further, but did not put down his wand either.Lupine took a slight diagonal step to his left, and all the kids should have gone home, except for Harry, who had to let them go because he had analyzed a bunch of reasons why he had to stay here.Seeing them here now, besides his concerns about their safety, he also had to consider the possibility of Polyjuice Potion.
"We want to help, sir." Gryffindor and the Slytherin Quidditch captain stood out from the crowd because of their stature.
"This is Hogwarts, our other home, you can't refuse us to protect it together."
"But you should stay at home now instead of coming here. When the battle starts, we may not have time to protect you. Go back, children, you don't know what kind of enemy you will face."
"We know!" Silver animals jumped out one after another, although some of them flickered from time to time, but their shapes were very clear.
"You..." are not Death Eaters in disguise, the Patronus Charm is their best proof, but this made Sirius and Lupine even more headache-they couldn't let these children get involved in such danger .
"At least we can help dispel the dementors."
"Okay," Sirius compromised, "Seventh graders can stay, but the rest must go back." He glared at Draco Malfoy who was hiding behind the crowd, "Your father knows that you ran Are you here? Go to the headmaster's office immediately, where the Floo network is still connected, and take your classmates to Malfoy Manor or Grimmauld Place."
"Too late!" Lupine interrupted them.He looks around.The sky was almost completely dark, and something was moving in the night, as if suddenly bursting out, and countless swirling thick black figures rushed towards them like a tide.Their faces were hidden by hoods, their breath rattled...
Not far away, the sparks representing the signal of the enemy's attack exploded above the castle, but no one here could notice, a kind of cold dead silence was shrouding in front of them...
"Hey, who's here?" Ron yelled at the top of his voice.There were so many dementors that Sirius and Lupine's spells were not enough to dispel them.They still overestimated themselves, the coldness, darkness and fear affected their perception, and the formed team was being dispersed unknowingly.
"I'm here." "Me too." "And me." "Here." The voices of Neville, Draco, Seamus, and Luna sounded in turn.
"Are you all okay?"
"Very good." Draco's disdainful voice came. Although he couldn't see anything in the dark, Ron believed that he must have given himself a supercilious look.
Seamus smiled softly: "Ron, when did you become our team leader?"
Even Neville, who has always been kind, couldn't help teasing him: "I don't know." It's great to know that none of your friends are true.
"Shh, don't talk." Luna tugged at the sleeves of the laughing boys, motioning them to look to the left, "Who do you see fighting over there?" From a distance, they could see the spell Flashing red and green sparks.
"Let's go take a look."
They tried their best to hold their breath and sneaked past as carefully as possible. Gradually, they could already hear people cursing and shouting.
"Lucius, Severus—are you really going to betray me?" A gloomy, terrifying voice said bewitchingly, "betrayed the honor and trust of the master." Although he was speaking like this, But the owner of the voice didn't show any mercy in his actions. While speaking, he had already rushed forward.
"What is that? Merlin, Voldemort has turned into this!" Everyone's eyes widened in horror.Because it was only at this time that they realized that it was not a single person who was speaking—a terrifying big snake was opening its bloody mouth.Its mottled stripes and bright red eyes can still be seen in the light of the spell.
At this moment, the big snake was lashing its tail angrily, and fell to the ground with a heavy, palpitating sound.However, Snape and Malfoy were not at a disadvantage. The big snake's huge body hindered its movement. While avoiding its attack, they also had the opportunity to fight back.
"That's it! Dad, shoot him in the eye!" Draco's hands were clenched into fists, almost choking blood from his palms.Even the Gryffindors who had never been used to Snape were secretly encouraging their potions professor at this moment.However, at this moment, a sudden change occurred——
The two who were fighting suddenly staggered and were almost swept away by the big snake's tail.At the same time, a cloud of green smoke glowed with dazzling light, slowly rising into the sky, and finally formed a huge pattern in the dark night sky - a large boa constrictor emerged from the skull's mouth like a Tongue.
"What's going on?" Seamus straightened his neck and looked forward.
"It's the Dark Mark!" Draco realized what had happened, "Voldemort's Dark Mark! His mark is actually a contract, and when he is angry, the contractor will feel a burning pain in his arm .
"Then what should we do now?" The pain might not be fatal, but it still hindered Snape and Malfoy a lot.The child can only watch them fight and retreat, and the advantage they just occupied is gradually disappearing.
"Let's go." In the silence, someone's voice came to mind, hoarse and trembling, but extremely firm.They were right behind the big snake, if they rushed up suddenly, they might have a chance to strangle it.Even if it can't, it can be distracted to a certain extent and create a fighting opportunity for adults.
"Let's go. Be careful." They nodded to each other, cast a curse on themselves, and then smiled at their companions, and they rushed up.
"Hey, stupid guy, come here." Several spells were shot, and Ron rushed forward and grabbed the snake's tail tightly.
It turned around angrily as it was approaching, and roared at him, "You little brat!"
"Give me the weapon!" Draco yelled from the sidelines, as he and Neville were chasing the serpent on either side, trying to hit its eyes.But Voldemort was clearly aware that it was his weakest point, and the spells they shot were always deflected in the other direction by some kind of protection.
"Where are we going to find weapons here!" Seamus yelled back at him as he distracted Voldemort with a spell to help them.
"Stupid lions with slugs in their heads, you are wizards!" Snape was worried and angry when he saw the children appearing, but now is the only chance for these children. danger.
"Next!" Luna threw two sharp swords that were not very delicate, but gleaming with cold light into the air.At this moment, she cast a transformation spell that was enough to make Professor McGonagall proud.
"1, 2, 3—" roared, Draco and Neville pressed the sword down with their whole body weight.The protective spell on the eyes was broken, and a foul-smelling liquid splashed out.The eyes on both sides were injured, and the big snake, which was furious because of the pain, rolled over and almost threw everyone off.
"Ahhh—" Only Neville was still holding on to the sword tightly, refusing to relax at all.He gritted his teeth and tried hard to continue to pick up the sword.
"Be careful!" The rest of the people shouted worriedly, the snake's tail almost wrapped him up.
"Avada——" Snape and Lucius, who came over, had halfway chanted the spell, and the big snake's body had already fallen limply.
"Merlin's underwear! Neville, you did it!" Ron pounced on him, ignoring the stinky blood splattered on his friend.
Draco took a step closer, but frowned again: "Look at you, it's really..."
"Haha, Draco, are you talking about someone else?" Seamus laughed while pointing at his blood-stained and torn clothes, "You're not much better."
"A moment to remember." Luna clapped her hands briskly.
"You guys—" Looking at the little guys who didn't know the severity, Snape thought they needed an unforgettable lesson.
"Professor, we..." The Potions Professor's expression made them feel really scared, and they racked their brains to avoid his wrath.
Suddenly, Ron yelled, "Look what happened to the castle?"
"Hmph." Snape gave him a glare. "Ten points from Gryffindor for your poor deflection, Mr. Weasley."
"No, I mean..." Ron danced anxiously.
"Severus, I don't think he's changing the subject." Lucius patted Snape, motioning him to turn around.Behind them, Hogwarts Castle was shrouded in golden light, looking extremely dazzling in the darkness.
"Do you think the werewolf will participate this time?" Sirius asked his companion while casting a protective spell on the surroundings again.
"It's hard to say," Lupine shook his head lightly, and cast his gaze into the depths of the Forbidden Forest, "The last group attack caused a lot of losses to the werewolves, and the groups that have always supported Greyback have also begun to have opinions on him.
