The two hooded men were still struggling and screaming on the ground.

But at this time, everyone's attention was on the sound of footsteps that were gradually approaching below.

Neville was the first to react, making frantic tactical gestures, ordering everyone to return to their positions and hide, while he was standing on the steps with his wand high and staring down.

As the footsteps got closer, Neville felt that his heart was beating faster and faster, and nervousness was slowly seeping into every trace of his flesh and blood, causing his muscles to become more and more tense.

How terrifying would it be for a guy who could subdue those two hooded men with a single blow?

If it is the enemy, can they really fight against it?

All this put a lot of pressure on Neville.

But he still chose to stay because there was a conjecture that he wanted to confirm.

Finally, a dozen black shadows slowly appeared from below the stairs.

Neville almost couldn't help but attack again.

But the next moment, when he really saw the appearance of the person who came, he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, turned his head and gestured to Ron and the others to stop attacking.

Because the dozen or so people who appeared were all wearing Ravenclaw uniforms.

There were even a few familiar faces Neville had seen at D.A. Army rallies.

"Arthur, it's you!"

Neville walked out of the shadows with Ron and the others, and smiled and greeted the lead Ravenclaw.

But there was no smile on the face of the man named Arthur.

His eyes wandered around Neville and the others, and finally landed on Ron's face, and said indifferently:

"I just heard someone say we Ravenclaw are cowards?"

Ron's expression froze when he heard the words. He wanted to refute but couldn't say anything. He could only bow his head in dissatisfaction.

Because he has discovered that although there are not many Ravenclaws on the opposite side, many of them have bloodstains and wounds and bandages on their bodies.

This means that they obviously joined the battle to protect Hogwarts earlier than the Gryffindors, and have been fighting for a long time.

If they were to count, they themselves were belated cowards.

"Now in this situation, everyone is a comrade-in-arms, their own people, so stop arguing. If I tell you, let's deal with these two hooded men first!"

Neville also stood up, he stood between Arthur and Ron and persuaded with a smile.

It's just that his smile was a little forced.

Because Ron and Arthur have a grudge at all.

As early as when the D.A. Army was first established, the two of them would fight every now and then, not to mention later.

As for the reason, Neville thinks that it is very likely that Arthur's name is exactly the same as Ron's father, and Arthur himself is relatively awkward.

Fortunately, Arthur also knew the priorities of the matter. Hearing Neville's persuasion, he just gave Ron one last glance, and then walked towards the two hooded men.

This made Neville very relieved.

The other Gryffindors also scratched their heads and stepped forward to help.

It is not an easy task to control these two hooded men according to the method taught by the D.A. Army. If there are more people, it will be more simple and aspect.

But to their surprise, in the face of their help, Arthur, headed by Ravenclaw, just waved his hand.

Then everyone saw that the two Ravenclaw senior boys behind Arthur took out their wands and pointed them at the hooded man.

"Pfft-"

Another two iron drills appeared out of thin air and slammed through the hooded people's brains.

Almost all the people on Gryffindor's side froze when they saw this, and their faces were full of disbelief.

Just as Slytherins are a bunch of little Death Eaters, Hufflepuffs are a bunch of eaters, and Gryffindors are a bunch of simple-minded fools.

Ravenclaw naturally has its own derogatory nickname in the other three colleges, that is, nerd.

But such a group of nerds actually killed two people in front of them without blinking an eye!

What kind of violation is this?

Only a wizard born in a traditional pure-blood family like Neville could barely keep his composure throughout the entire scene.

Because only they had known the true image of Ravenclaw through family education.

Ravenclaws are by no means as harmless as they appear to be.

You must know that the Death Eaters of the year were not all composed of Slytherins.

There are a large number of Death Eaters, all Ravenclaw.

And these Ravenclaws occupy a very high position in the Death Eater organization, and the methods are quite cruel.

Extraordinary ingenuity gave them greater strength, and it also made them more vulnerable to the truth of the world, becoming more rational and indifferent.

Without reasonable guidance, they will become the most terrifying demons!

On the other hand, looking at the reaction of Gryffindor and others, Arthur pouted and said:

"Don't you still want to leave them to the Magic Law Enforcement Division for trial? Please, what's the value of such **** to continue to live? Anyway, they are dead when they are judged, so it is better to kill them directly. It also saves some oxygen and food."

Arthur's words were full of contempt for everyone in Gryffindor, but this time Ron was not angry, he just said in a complicated tone:

"But private execution is illegal. Aren't you afraid of being held accountable and affecting your future?"

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the entire stairwell instantly became solemn.

Ravenclaw stared blankly at the Gryffindors, and after a long time, the two Ravenclaw who had just killed the hooded man behind Arthur snorted coldly:

"Future? Who cares about that kind of thing?!"

Ron and even the rest of the Gryffindors were speechless after being so scolded.

How can there be anyone in this world who doesn't care about their future?

But looking at the blood on the Ravenclaws and the bandages on them, Ron's face quickly showed a thoughtful expression.

He thought of Wade, who had just died in battle, and Rani and Joseph, who had been tortured.

Presumably these Ravenclaws also witnessed the death of their companions with their own eyes, right?

That's why they are so angry.

Gu Yan</span> "Stop talking nonsense, Ron, and Neville. You guys came out of Gryffindor too late, the battle has already started. Now, let me explain to you the current situation. condition."

Arthur stopped the desire of the two Ravenclaws to continue talking, and stood up and explained.

Hearing that, Neville and the other Gryffindors also stood up one after another.

"The enemies we will face tonight are all wizards from France. Although it is not clear how this group of people sneaked into Hogwarts, there is no doubt that each of them has comparable Aurors, even top arrogance. Luo's strength should not be underestimated!"

Arthur stared at him and said, "At present, this large group of French wizards has been blocked by the professors in the magical staircase above the main entrance hall of the castle, and Hufflepuff and Slytherin are also assisting there. And we Ravenclaw were ordered to patrol and search the entire Hogwarts Castle, both to protect the underclassmen who are still in their respective common rooms, and for you Gryffindors Bring notification.

Now, the notification has been delivered! Now that you have already prepared the team first, then according to the order of the D.A. Military Student Self-Government Committee, please follow us to the hallway for support immediately! "

"Yes! Sir!" *N

Neville, Ron and the others shouted respectfully almost instinctively.

At this moment, the object of their respect is not Arthur who is standing in their foreword now, but this order conveyed by Arthur.

Likewise, Arthur and the rest of the Ravenclaws, who read this order, looked solemn and holy at this time.

Of course, this solemn atmosphere did not last long.

To be precise, when the Gryffindors really walked downstairs under the leadership of the Ravenclaws, the atmosphere between the two groups returned to their original state.

Except for Neville and the dissatisfied Ron, the rest of the Gryffindors were even deliberately pulling away from the Ravenclaws.

After all, they had only just seen them kill people not long ago.

During this time, Arthur was also watching the number of Gryffindors.

This was supposed to be done at the first moment of the rendezvous with the Gryffindor team, but it was delayed until now because of too much faith in Gryffindor, who has the name of courage.

And when he actually counted the number of people on Gryffindor's side, and found that it was not even 30, his expression changed completely.

"Why are you so few? What about the rest of the students?"

Arthur spoke in a hurry.

Neville, who heard the worry in his tone, said:

"The rest of the people were sent back by us, you don't have to worry, most of them are fine."

"Are you sure they were sent back instead of fleeing?"

"What do you mean by that?"

"It's a very simple literal meaning, they, shouldn't they be timid and flee?"

Neville's expression froze, and he stared at Arthur's eyes and said:

"I don't allow you to slander them like this, please apologize!"

"Why do I need to apologize, now Hogwarts is in a life-or-death situation..."

"Of course we know that, that's why we're out of the common room, we're here to protect Hogwarts!"

"But you only have so many people here!" Arthur growled, "Isn't it true that the situation is so serious, but you only have so many people here?"

"Then how many people are you here?" Ron finally couldn't help but say, "Judging from the current situation, it seems that the number of your Ravenclaw is less than our Gryffindor?"

As soon as Ron said this, Neville noticed that the hostility in Ravenclaw's eyes that were looking at them was not quite right, and the hostility instantly became heavier.

He hurriedly intervened between the two to persuade:

"Ron, shut up and go back to the back! And Arthur, I think you need to be considerate of us too. In fact, we also had an encounter before reuniting with you, during which we sacrificed a companion to save us. One girl, the rest of us just escorted them back to the common room first!"

"You don't need to explain, Neville, these sound like excuses to me. Don't you think we've come all the way here without battles and sacrifices? Trust me, we've been through far more than you've been through. It's more dangerous than you can imagine!"

Arthur turned his head to look at Ron after speaking, "You ask me how many people have come to Ravenclaw, I can tell you very clearly, all Ravenclaw college students who have passed the OWL exam since the fifth grade and above. Students, you are all in this war! As for the number of Slytherins and Hufflepuffs, I suggest you go to the place and count them yourself. I guarantee you will be ashamed to die! Brave Gran Fendos!"

"you…"

Ron was so **** off that he wanted to rush up to fight Arthur, but Neville grabbed him violently.

Arthur, on the other hand, took the Ravenclaws straight away, and took the initiative to widen the distance with the Gryffindors, only hanging in the distance, playing a role as a guide.

"Neville, why are you stopping me? Didn't you hear what they said? Those **** nerds!"

Ron was still roaring angrily, and the Gryffindors who followed behind also all looked resentful.

If they weren't worried about the emergency at Hogwarts just now, they would have rushed to fight the Ravenclaws.

Looking at all this, Neville first wiped the saliva sprayed by Ron on his face, and then pointed to the corner of the aisle with a wry smile.

Everyone looked in the direction he pointed, and found a hooded man's body in the corner of the wall, and not far from the body, there was a large beach of black blood.

The blood was so thick that it didn't look like it was accidentally splashed during the battle, but like a wounded person, or a corpse that had been lying there for a long time with an open wound.

And there are many similar bloodstains in this whole long corridor.

This moved all the Gryffindors present.

You must know that those Ravenclaws just walked this way, that is to say, the blood is either from the Hooded Man or the Ravenclaws.

Of the two options, the latter is obviously more reliable.

Because judging from the corpse in front of him and the situation after the death of the two hooded men in front of them, the Ravenclaws did not have the idea of ​​dealing with the corpses of the hooded men.

Ron turned his head to look at the distant backs of the Ravenclaws, and the anger on his face was gradually replaced by guilt.

When he saw the blood on the Ravenclaws, he had expected that the other party might have witnessed the casualties of his teammates. UU reading www.uukanshu.com

But I didn't expect the reality to be so cruel.

At this moment, Ron felt that he was beginning to understand the thoughts of Arthur and others.

These Ravenclaws are the ones who really gave everything for Hogwarts.

The sacrifices they made were far greater than they imagined!

Thinking differently, Ron felt that if he were Arthur, he might have scolded him even more.

"call-"

Ron took a deep breath and patted Neville's arm, signaling him to let go.

Then he said to the people behind him with a heavy expression:

"Let's go, we should also do what we should do, but don't let others look down on us!"
