In This Hogwarts Without a Savior

Chapter 480 478. Big Fish

Jon, who was still in the Department of Mysteries, had no idea what was going on at Carrow Manor.

He was still conducting detailed reconnaissance of all the magic items here in the Hall of Time, and those purebloods who stayed here were all gathered together by Slughorn as a reason to hold a banquet. , so no one will interfere with Jon at this time.

As the time entered the second half of the night, Jon had already checked all the hourglasses in the Time Hall, and even absorbed some of the more suspicious magic powers to see if he could open the door.

But without exception they all failed.

In the end, Jon could only focus on the bird ornament, which was the most conspicuous thing in the entire time hall, because it was more obvious than the hourglasses that kept passing by.

Jon didn't pay attention to it at first because it was too conspicuous. It was so conspicuous that if someone just came to the Time Hall, it would definitely be the first thing he noticed.

According to common sense, if you really want to use something in this room to make a key to open the door, you generally won't choose such a conspicuous item.

But Jon really couldn't imagine that there were other suspicious things in the room, and it was possible that Voldemort used the most dangerous place as the safest place.

So Jon focused on this bird-shaped ornament and began his own research.

To be honest, this is actually a different kind of hourglass, but its expression of the passage of time is not based on the movement of certain things like an hourglass, but through the bird hatching from an egg to a bird, and then from a bird to a bird. The expression of returning into an egg shows the advancement and regression of time.

At first glance, you may feel that it is magical, but after careful observation, Jon discovered that this bird ornament does not actually have a deep magical mystery.

The bird hatched from the egg is just an ordinary bird specimen, and although the liquid contained in it is a special potion, its effect is only a potion that helps the object deform, and there is no further A profound place.

The only thing that needs to be noted is that the egg from which the bird hatched is a real and living egg.

The medicine in the ornament is constantly helping it to change, and the form of this change is the process of a bird breaking out of its shell. Then the change effect ends, so the bird evolves into a performance of degenerating back into an egg.

From the beginning to the end, the egg was not affected. It was still a living egg, but the transformation potions that wrapped it, while allowing it to undergo magical changes, also inhibited its actual hatching.

Jon stared at the ornament in front of him for a long time. He did not easily absorb the magic contained in it. On the one hand, it was because the intensity of the magic absorbed in the gemstone of his ring had reached a limit, and because he always I feel that I cannot destroy this thing violently like this, as that will have very bad consequences.

Just when Jon was trying various experiments with this ornament, he suddenly discovered that this thing was not completely embedded in the table. There was a latch under the table, which could completely remove it smoothly from the table. Come down.

"Crack!"

A crisp sound echoed in the quiet time hall. Jon easily took the ornament off the table. At the same time, he could also see that there was a live opening under the base that could open it!

This is a very important discovery. Generally, after this kind of thing is made, there should be no need to open it again. Just like the other hourglasses in the Time Hall, none of them are designed to remove the sand in them. It can be taken out normally.

But this bird-shaped ornament is an exception.

Without much hesitation, Jon turned the ornament upside down and opened it from the bottom.

The moment he opened it, the transformation from egg to bird in the potion suddenly stopped, and then the transformation potions were like water droplets on a hot pot, evaporating rapidly, almost in the blink of an eye. Just disappeared! Only the lone egg remained inside.

Jon tilted the cylindrical transparent tube and took out the egg. It was only the size of a normal bird egg. It didn't look anything special on the outside, but it was clear that there was an egg inside. Weak lives are still alive.

After weighing the egg and observing it for a moment, Jon tried to bring it to the door that was not easily discovered.

There was no special phenomenon at first, but soon Jon discovered that every time he brought the egg close to the door, there would be a sign of a depression in the middle of the door!

Immediately, this discovery made him excited. He held the egg and carefully brought it close to the concave area. When he completely attached the egg to the door, an egg appeared in that area. A round hole that can perfectly fit an egg into.

Jon accurately stuck the egg into the hole, and in the next second, the door that had been closed seemed to be enchanted with a different kind of magic by the egg, and then opened gently inward. An entrance that allows people to come in and out!

"Get up! Get up quickly!"

Amidst the roar around him, Lucius pulled up an Auror who had already lost an arm and leg.

He knew this Auror. He was a mixed-race backbone whom Lucius had commended when he was the director of the Auror Office at the Auror Command. At that time, he encouraged the young man and told him to work hard. There are great things to come. The future is waiting for him, but now he is dying, with more air coming out and less air coming in.

Lucius didn't care at all whether he died or not. He needed to know information about these people outside. He wanted to know how many people Wu Pingxian sent and who their leaders were!

"Tell me! How many people did you see? How many people in total ate their team!"

The Auror team is usually composed of three people per team, and now the Auror with a broken arm and leg was lying next to the bodies of his other two teammates!

"Six has six people"

Blood foam continuously spurted out from the corner of his mouth, and he finished his report to Lucius in a weak and dying voice.

Such news made Lucius's already ugly face turn even darker. He angrily threw the Auror, who was already on the verge of death, back to the cold ground.

Six people surrounded three, which means that the number of people sent here by the Wu Leveling Line this time is definitely more than the Aurors guarding here, and after the unexpected attack at the beginning, coupled with the speed and speed of the Weasley Ball The killing methods caused many Aurors to die from the killing curse and explosion before they even saw the enemy!

Lucius originally thought that the Aurors might have just been dispersed, but in fact there was still a lot of vitality left, allowing him to take over the command. Coupled with the purebloods who came out later, the situation might be able to continue in a stalemate. opportunity, and then wait for the magic world's detection network to discover the situation here and wait for support.

But now I can’t hold on anymore!

When Lucius ran down from the manor with the pure blood, the Aurors who had retreated from the fence into the yard had already suffered heavy casualties. Now the situation has fallen into a street battle that can be said to be a rout. People were not in a hurry to rush directly to where the purebloods gathered and catch them all, but to eliminate the remaining Aurors bit by bit and remove the effective strength of the Ministry of Magic.

Obviously for Moody and others, this is the optimal solution.

Almost all means of getting out around the manor have been blocked, leaving only a floo network that can only be used by one person. It doesn't matter even if a few more purebloods are allowed to escape. These people only dare to escape and dare not fight. The more waste that escapes, the better it will be for the attack behind the Wizard Line, and those who dare to stay and resist must be eliminated, including the remaining Aurors in the manor.

Wu Pingxian has no intention of driving them all away. The situation has reached such a point that anyone who is not a fool can see that if they continue to resist stubbornly, there is basically only a dead end. If these mixed-bloods have any influence on the current Ministry of Magic, No matter how loyal he is, that's not true, because after all, Voldemort's rule over Britain only lasted less than twenty years. Twenty years is not enough for the old people who have experienced the previous wizarding system to die, nor is it enough for those who have been brainwashed. New people in education completely replace all positions.

So after hearing Wu Pingxian's people shouting "throw away the wand without killing" as they pushed forward, many mixed-bloods threw the wands in their hands on the ground without much difficult ideological struggle. , and then he squatted down with his head in his hands.

These Aurors who gave up resistance all had their wands broken, and were temporarily placed in the rear, leaving two teams of people to guard them, while Moody continued to advance deeper into the manor with the remaining people.

The purebloods brought by Lucius were hiding less than twenty meters away from Moody!

There is a ten-meter-wide open hall between them. The Magic Brothers Fountain that was previously placed in the Ministry of Magic is placed in the hall. The Carlo family kept this precious antique privately and placed it in their own home.

The people led by Lucius were hiding in a corner in front of the hall. His former director of the Auror Office was not in vain. Based on his rich experience, he judged the progress of Moody and his team, which was just a few steps away from them. The group of people was not very far away. As for whether there were other people behind him who were outflanking him, and if so, where they were, he no longer cared that much.

It's not like he couldn't guess Amycus's little thoughts. If there were people behind, they would definitely bump into those who left with the Carlo family, and that was none of his business.

"We only have this one chance!"

Lucius stared at all the purebloods present and said fiercely.

"Whether we live or die depends on whether we dare to fight! They want to surround the entire manor. To form such a siege network, the personnel must be dispersed! According to normal habits, two teams will be arranged , that is, six people form a group, each group is no more than 30 meters apart, and then continuously compress the space inward!"

"At this position, the distance between the two groups should be less than 20 meters. No matter how fast they are, they can only gather all the people within 50 meters in a short time. That is, there are a total of 18 people in the three groups. And our current number far exceeds theirs, so as long as the operation goes smoothly, we still have a good chance to rush out!"

Lucius's words cheered up the surrounding purebloods a lot. If it was true as he said, then there was indeed a good chance.

But in fact, there are some possibilities that Lucius did not speak out directly. Generally, this kind of encirclement network will not only have one layer. The innermost layer is now a group of 20 meters, and if it is experienced If someone leads the team, there will definitely be two more "big nets" arranged along the 20-meter gap on the outside. So once they really attract the attention of these wizards, there will definitely be more than just encirclement and suppression against them. There are only three groups of 18.

But now is the time when purebloods need morale and confidence. Of course Lucius will not tell such a truth. He can only rely on everyone here to have a strong enough desire to survive, and maybe there will be a miracle. occur.

In the distance, the voice that kept shouting through the amplifying spell, asking the Aurors to put down their wands and surrender, was getting closer and closer. Through the Magic Brothers Fountain, Lucius could already vaguely see the group of two people. When he saw the figure of the Wuping line team, he gave the order to charge!

"rush!!!"

The surrounding purebloods were on full alert. The moment they heard Lucius's voice, the desire to survive occupied all of their brains, so they raised their wands without hesitation. !

"Avada Kedavra!"

"Collapse!"

Those who could use the Death Curse naturally used the Death Curse without hesitation, but the pure blood who had not yet learned the Death Curse and knew that it would not kill anyone even if it was used used the Stunning Curse.

Almost instantly, green and red lights intertwined in the hall!

At the same time as the spell was released, the purebloods, led by Lucius, also rushed out of the corner where they were hiding, using the Magic Brothers Fountain as a cover, and began to attack the witch level group!

The target they chose was very clever. This six-person team happened to be the team led by Moody and Tonks!

The moment he heard the death curse, Moody's experience as a professional Auror came into play. He yelled "Get down" and at the same time waved his wand and immediately used the Transfiguration Technique to shatter the one in front of him in the explosion. The handrail of the stairs turned into an iron shield lying on the ground!

The death curse and the stun curse hit the shield like raindrops, and Moody had roughly judged the number of Lucius's group from the density of the spells.

Now that the Aurors have been completely eliminated, there is only one kind of person who can organize such a group of resistance forces in the manor!

Moody knew they had encountered a big fish!
