Chapter 685: Who said I was the only one here?
Chapter 685 Who said I was the only one here?
Finally, in a room that looked like a conference hall, the Death Eaters caught up with Harry and others who were running away frantically.
"Stop!" Bellatrix suddenly threw out a magic spell. Ron, who was running at the end, immediately fell to the ground and was picked up by her neck.
"Caught, you rats that can only run away." Bellatrix glanced at Harry and said excitedly: "Guess how long he can last in the heart-breaking pain.
“I still remember that the Longbottoms held on for three hours, and the sweet screams were so interesting..."
Bellatrix glanced at Ron in her hand, "Can you surpass them? I hope you can."
She asked herself the question, smiling excitedly.
"Leave me alone." Ron was so frightened by this crazy woman that his legs were trembling, but he still stood up and said, "Leave me alone, Harry, the prophecy ball must not be allowed to be obtained by the mysterious person."
Bellatrix raised her wand and said, "Crush the bones!"
Ron screamed and huddled up in a ball.
“Ron!” Mr. Weasley shouted anxiously.
He wanted to save Ron, but he was entangled by two other Death Eaters and could not escape.
Seeing Ron in pain and hearing Mr. Weasley's roar, Harry had no choice but to stiffly raise his hand and hand over the prophecy ball.
"No, Harry, the Death Eaters will not keep their promises." Mr. Weasley roared: "If they get the Prophecy Ball, they will kill Ron immediately!"
"No, no, no, we will let him go." A masked Death Eater rushed up and took away the prophecy ball in Harry's hand.
The corner of his mouth under the mask suddenly turned up into a cruel sneer.
“Let him go first, then kill him...”
“Fainted to the ground!”
At this moment, a nearby door was knocked open, and Lupin, Tonks and Kingsley rushed in from the outside.
A flash of red light flashed on the wand in Kingsley's hand, and the Death Eater fell backwards and fell to the ground.
"No, **** it!" Bellatrix roared, throwing Ron out and raising her wand.
“Foretelling that the ball will fly…”
But Harry's movements were faster than hers. The moment the Death Eater fell, he swooped over to pick up the prophecy ball and held it tightly in his hand.
Tonks also took this opportunity to save Ron who was thrown out.
"Fortunately, we caught up." Kingsley gasped, "Arastor, you really shouldn't have let us separate."
"This is the safest way..." Moody once again dodged a magic spell, and his magic eye almost turned into an afterimage, but even so, he was still struck from the darkness. The spell struck.
Moody’s back was blown to pieces.
Although he was once a legendary Auror, he was getting older after all, and his reactions were getting slower and slower. He was already at his limit against two Death Eaters, and the number of Death Eaters on the scene was more than twice as many as them.
Upon seeing this, Kingsley immediately joined the battle and helped the injured Moody share some of the pressure.
"Don't worry about me, go help those children." Moody gritted his teeth and picked up the magic eye that fell on the ground, and stuffed it back directly. "It's so lucky that it's not a killing curse, these despicable people."
Kingsley just glanced at him, and without hesitation came to Hermione not far away, helped her fight off a Death Eater who wanted to sneak attack, and shouted loudly:
“Watch your back, girl, and try to fight as close to the wall as possible.”
Hermione, who had experienced this kind of scene for the first time, was speechless and could only nod with difficulty.
“Okay, the **** guys are here.”
On the other side, Bellatrix laughed maniacally while pointing her wand at Tonks, who was nearest.
“Avada…”
“Thunderclap explosion!”
As if deliberately against her, Bellatrix's spell was interrupted again.
“Come on, let me see how strong you are now!” Sirius said provocatively.
What responded to him was a dazzling red light.
Sirius seemed to have had a warning. He skillfully turned into a black dog, escaped the Cruciatus Curse, and then changed back again.
“On this level?” he scoffed. “How disappointing.”
Bellatrix was also enraged. Next, the two of them seemed to be holding fireworks instead of wands, blasting various spells at each other one after another.
From a strength perspective, Sirius and Bellatrix seem to be evenly matched, and neither can do anything to the other.
But others are different.
The Death Eaters finally had the numerical advantage. Not long after, the weakest ones, Hermione and Ron, were the first to be unable to hold on, and their wands flew away.
Then Moody, who was holding on to fight, also fell. Rolling from one row of stone steps to another, a maskless Death Eater was laughing wildly next to him.
Antonin Dolokhov pointed his wand at Moody, "Stand up and catch me, you bastard... gouge out your bones!"
The balance of victory begins to tilt, and the speed is getting faster and faster.
Sirius, who was concentrating on fighting Bellatrix, now not only had to face the enemy in front of him, but also had to beware of sneak attacks from the dark, which doubled the pressure for a while.
But Harry on the side was ignored.
I do n’t know if I was worried about breaking the prophecy ball, or for something else. There was only one Death Eater in front of him, and even the other person seemed to have n’t been attentive, but only when he wanted to run away, he released a curse at will.
"It looks like we won..." Bellatrix's high-pitched laughter echoed in the room, playing with Sirius like a cat playing with a mouse.
“That’s not necessarily the case.” A faint voice came from above everyone’s heads.
Bellatrix looked up subconsciously, only to find that someone had appeared in front of the top door.
But the next second, her eyes fell on a dark creature next to the other party.
Not just him, everyone else in the room saw it too.
"Kyle?" The disappointment in Mr. Weasley's eyes flashed away. He thought it was Dumbledore just now.
But after he reacted, he immediately shouted: "Run quickly, you are not..."
Before he could say anything, he suddenly couldn't make any sound.
Because he saw the leopard-like animal next to Kyle step forward and raise its neck.
Harry also looked up. He didn't recognize what kind of animal it was. He only saw its neck bulging out like a pufferfish, and then, a hazy purple smoke began to spread rapidly around.
As if the pause button was pressed, the room suddenly became quiet, and everyone, whether it was the Death Eaters or Mr. Weasley, all had their eyes widened.
The next second…
“Damn it, why are there poison leopards in the Ministry of Magic!”
“Run quickly…”
“Do you want to kill everyone?”
“Stop, stop!”
“No, Kyle, stop it!”
The whole room suddenly became chaotic.
Antonin Dolokhov ignored Moody and ran to the other side of the room without looking back.
The other Death Eaters also left behind Hermione and Ron, who had lost the ability to resist, and followed him crawling on the ground.
Even the crazy Bellatrix began to retreat subconsciously.
“Ron, Hermione…”
Seeing the Death Eaters retreat, Harry tried to catch the unconscious Ron and Hermione, but was grabbed by Mr. Weasley.
“Don’t go there, it’s the poison of the poisonous leopard, you will die!”
Harry was stunned for a moment, then struggled more violently.
"But they are still there...I have to save them..."
“…It’s too late, Harry!” Mr. Weasley said bitterly.
The purple smoke spread very quickly, and as they spoke, it had already engulfed Ron and Hermione who were lying on the ground.
Mr. Weasley bit his lip while dragging Harry backwards.
He couldn't understand why Kyle commanded the poisonous leopard to kill everyone. Why did he do this!
Mr. Weasley's nails dug into his flesh. He desperately hoped that the Kyle in front of him was fake and that someone had used Polyjuice Potion to pretend to be him, but his remaining sense told him that this was impossible.
Because besides Kyle, Chris and Newt Scamander, he couldn't think of anyone else who could command the Venom Panther.
Several Death Eaters immediately used the Bubble Curse on themselves.
"It's useless..." Kyle shook his finger, "The poison of the poisonous leopard can penetrate into the body even if it is stained on clothes."
For a time, the Death Eaters ran faster.
However, after Lupine in the crowd heard this, he suddenly raised his head and glanced at Kyle. He seemed to have thought of something while he was originally nervous, and he breathed a long sigh of relief.
He did not run away, but stood there, letting himself not be swallowed up by the purple smoke.
"Remus..." Sirius shouted with tears in his eyes.
Now Mr. Weasley not only had to hold Harry, but also had a hand free to pull Sirius.
"Remus...let me go, Remus hasn't come yet...I'm going to save him!"
“Shut up Padfoot, don’t be embarrassed.”
A familiar voice came from the smoke. Sirius looked at the unharmed Lupin inside and blinked blankly.
“You, are you okay?”
“Nonsense, haven’t you seen everything?” Kyle also walked over.
Took out the wand and shook it, and a purple smoke of the same color as the surroundings came out from the tip of the wand.
"I just changed the color of the smoke spell. What can happen... You don't really think I want to kill everyone."
"I'm sorry, Mr. Weasley." Kyle turned around and said, "Only by making the Death Eaters feel a fatal threat can I rescue Ron and the others who are incapacitated... This is the most effective way."
"Huh? Oh, yes...that's right." Mr. Weasley also reacted at this time, his face was as red as a layer of paint, "You did a good job, thank you."
"Professor Lupine..." Kyle looked at Lupin aside again, "When did you find out?"
"When you said that the Poisonous Leopard's poison can enter the body through clothes." Lu Ping said, "As far as I know, its poisonous mist is not so scary. In addition, the color is a bit wrong."
“It’s more conspicuous this way.” Kyle said with a smile, “He is indeed one of the most popular Defense Against the Dark Arts professors at Hogwarts, unlike some people…”
Kyle glanced at Sirius, who still had tears on his face, curled his lips, and said in imitation of his voice just now: "Remus...I'm going to save Remus...don't you trust me a little too much. "
Sirius's face was frighteningly red, and he wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into. Mr. Weasley next to him was also about the same.
“So that poisonous leopard…”
"Of course it's a lie." Kyle said loudly: "How about it, my transformation spell is pretty good."
“Amazing,” Kingsley said sincerely.
When I saw the poisonous leopard just now, the fear that came from my heart was too real, and it didn't look like a product of transformation at all.
It is precisely because of this that he turned around and ran away subconsciously... I believe the Death Eaters are the same.
“How dare you play tricks on us!” said an angry voice.
Antonin Dolohov stood there trembling, looking at Kyle with cold eyes. Behind him, there were more Death Eaters staring at Kyle with the same eyes.
"That's right." Kyle spread his hands, "I'm just playing tricks on you, do you have any objections?"
A green light suddenly flew over.
But Kyle seemed to know it in advance and took a step to the left calmly beforehand.
The death curse flew past him and landed on the wall.
“Thanks.” Kyle said with a smile.
A low roar came from the smoke that had not dissipated from behind, as if in response to him.
Lupine was closest to Kyle, and he vaguely saw two groups of blue lights flashing in the smoke.
"But what are you going to do next?" Bellatrix walked out from the Death Eaters, "You don't think you can deal with all of us alone."
With her reminder, Mr. Weasley suddenly remembered their current situation and grabbed Kyle's arm, "There are too many of them, let's run..."
"That's too late."
The Death Eaters spread out in all directions, surrounding them as quickly as possible.
Bellatrix said sullenly: "So what if I saved those losers by playing some clever tricks? It's just to delay some time. We will catch them again soon. And you, I will torture you with the Cruciatus Curse." It tortures you for one day, no, for one year.”
"Tsk, long time no see, Bella, you are still so scary." Kyle greeted her like an old friend.
“But who told you that I came alone.”
Kyle waved his hand, and the smoke gradually dissipated, and a magical animal that also looked like a leopard appeared in front of everyone.
It has six legs and a pair of bright blue eyes.
"It's Transfiguration again." A Death Eater sneered: "You think we will still be fooled..."
Before the Death Eater could finish speaking, he saw the magical animal appearing in front of him at an incredible speed.
The sharp claws grew bigger and bigger, and with a scream, the Death Eater flew away and lay motionless on the ground.
Looking at the familiar scene, Harry subconsciously thought of some bad memories and shivered all over.
At the same time, this also told everyone that the magical animals in front of them were not transfiguration, but real.
“Shattered to pieces!” Antonin Dolokhov waved his wand, “It’s just a cat and leopard, so what.”
“Who told you I only have this one.” Kyle said with a smile.
Without warning, a ball of flames spurted out from behind Kyle, and a huge fire dragon appeared out of thin air in front of everyone.
Some Death Eaters couldn't help but take off their masks and rub their eyes... It's really strange how they saw the fire dragon.
Before they could recover, the ground began to tremble... It was a big dog ten feet tall with three heads. The head was as big as a table, and most of it was more than ten inches long. Fangs.
Some Death Eaters have already begun to tremble. They have no doubt that those fangs can easily penetrate their bodies.
"Avada Kedavra!"
“Shattered to pieces!”
“Fainted to the ground!”
"Protect them..." Lupine roared and was the first to take out his wand.
Several magic spells flew from all directions, half of them were blocked by Lu Ping and others, but the other half still fell on Lu Wei and Noble, including the death curse.
If it were Voldemort's Death Curse, it might be able to penetrate their fur and scales and kill them, but these Death Eaters were still far from it.
Lu Wei just staggered and stood up again. His eyes flashed with fierceness, and he roared and rushed towards the crowd.
Norbert was even simpler. He flew directly into the air and sprayed out large clouds of flames at the densest area of Death Eaters.
Sirius immediately forgot his embarrassment, laughed and joined in.
"Come on, don't run." He knocked down a Death Eater with his wand, tied him up and threw it aside. "Weren't you very proud just now? Keep going!"
The Death Eaters were in complete chaos, and the addition of the three-headed dog and the fire dragon completely changed the situation of the battle.
Originally, this kind of magical animal is not too difficult to deal with. It only takes seven or eight people to cast a spell together to eliminate one. But the trouble is that there are not only magical animals here.
Whenever the Death Eaters wanted to use magic spells at the same time, Sirius and the others would jump out and cause trouble, even more carefully than when protecting themselves.
Because as long as the fire dragon and three-headed dog are protected from harm, they can solve the immediate dilemma on their behalf, and more efficiently.
The situation instantly became one-sided.
"We can't go on like this." Lucius Malfoy limped to Bellatrix. His mask had been burned by dragon flames just now, and the hair he had always carefully maintained was gone. More than half.
But now Malfoy is no longer in the mood to care about this.
“We have to find a way to get out of here!” he shouted loudly: “At least we must attract those two beasts.”
But Bellatrix acted as if she didn't hear it. She turned over to avoid the dragon flames falling from the sky, stretched out her wand and pointed it at Kyle, but after a moment, she slightly deflected her wrist, and the tip of the wand was pointed at Kyle. Harry of the Prophecy Ball.
Harry stood there blankly, unaware of the imminent danger, until he was kicked violently by something, just escaping a fatal curse.
"Oh, thank you." Harry got up and said to Cat Leopard happily, but he didn't notice that when he fell just now, the prophecy ball also rolled out of his pocket, and it was on a stone not far away. It was smashed on the steps.
