harry potter book of crimes

Sirius is undoubtedly not a good commander, as he tends to prefer direct combat.

If he just leads one or two teams straight to the front of the battlefield, no matter how strong the enemy is, it is impossible for him to wear away his strong will; but if he is asked to lead a large number of teams to deploy in the middle... This does not mean that he cannot do it at all.

Yes, but certainly not as comprehensive as Kingsley and Lupine.

Therefore, what he is currently doing does not actually have any technical content. It is just to follow Kingsley's previous instructions and eliminate those crazy wizards in batches.

So when Barlow, the headmaster of Ilvermorny, came to Sirius, the first thing he saw was not that the other party was standing in the middle of the team guiding many of his subordinates on the spot, but that he was personally rushing to the front to face the enemy.

Just looking at the flexible spell-casting skills and clever teammate cooperation, the situation here is obviously more in favor of Sirius' team.

However, apart from his main team, the other teams are almost all fighting on their own, and there is almost no group cooperation.

Of course, fundamentally speaking, he does not need to exert any commanding ability on the spot, because Kingsley has already told him clearly what to do.

In short, it is enough to drive or lure the group of crazy wizards led by Kingsley's Muggle army.

"Mr. Black?"

Sirius had just defeated an enemy with his teammates when he heard a voice and appeared in his own voice.

"Huh? Oh... You must be the principal of Ilvermorny, the leader of the American support team this time, right?" He said, "Your deputy team leader has come to see me just now... Anyway, thank you.

Come and help us."

This kind of formulaic phrases is naturally not his strong point. Even because of the restraint he received in his family when he was a child, he doesn't like polite words like this even more.

However, when he had to say a few nonsense words to show friendship, he could make do with a few words.

Barlow, on the other hand, watched Sirius fight and deal with it casually, and suddenly he realized what kind of character this last heir to the Black family was.

"No, you don't need to thank me. I think Ryder has already said it to you just now, so I won't say more. If there is anything you need our help with, just say it and I will take him there right away.

Just do it.”

After all, the Black family is a major family in the modern British magic world. Even though it is completely lonely now, its name is still there.

As for Sirius, he is actually not very old at this age. It would not be impossible for Ruosi to hurry up and find a wife to have a child or something.

Therefore, Barlow was happy to go along with him and make friends with him.

After all, as long as the Black family still has a large fortune, it will be easy to continue it once they have children.

Barlow is not a careerist, but he is a smart man. As one of the younger principals in the history of Ilvermorny School, he is still full of vision and courage. It will definitely not be a problem to leave more ways for the development of the school.

What a bad thing.

On the other side, Sirius saw that Barlow spoke fluently, and he suddenly felt more favorable to him. While he waved his staff again to cast a spell, he simply gave up the useless greetings and pointed casually.

Another engagement point on the side.

"Actually, the real commander of our side is Kingsley Shacklebolt, the current head of the Auror Office of the Ministry of Magic... I'm basically just cooperating according to his plan. He told me that there is no need here.

What kind of complex wisdom can he use to deal with the enemies he brings over one after another?"

"So just catch those madmen and beat them in batches! Pay attention to the fighting style of those guys, don't be suppressed by their madness..."

Before Sirius finished speaking, both the enemy and the enemy nearby heard a gust of wind coming from behind, causing everyone, including Sirius and Barlow, to take the time to glance over there.

Immediately, everyone saw a large shadow rushing quickly from the mist over there, causing everyone to take precautions.

"Fire dragon?"

Before taking up the post of Headmaster of Ilvermorny, Barlow was an employee of the Magical Biological Hazards Office of the International Federation of Wizards and was responsible for several missions to control the population of Peruvian Venomtooth dragons. As a former dragon hunter, he

He has an understanding of fire dragons that is no less than that of a dragon tamer like Charlie.

Therefore, just by glancing at the flying outline through the fog, he could immediately tell what the big guy flying over was.

"Mr. Black, does Haierbo have the habit of raising fire dragons to fight for him?"

"Huh? I really haven't heard of this."

Just as the two of them were chatting casually, everyone saw that the figure flying at low altitude in the gray fog became clearer and clearer, and soon it completely appeared in the sky above the battlefield.

"One of my own...I am Charlie Weasley..."

Probably because of the use of amplifying spells, a clear message floated over the shadow in the sky. But after hearing this reminder, even though Sirius and Charlie were no longer strangers, they were still a little confused.

Confuse.

Nowadays, I have never heard of anyone who can ride a fire dragon to fight!

"Do you know who that 'Charlie Weasley' is?" Barlow glanced at Sirius, and when he saw that the other party seemed to know the name, he couldn't help but ask.

"Yes, I know the child of the Weasley family," Sirius said, "the dragon trainer at the Romanian dragon farm."

Barro knew much more about powerful and ferocious magical creatures like fire dragons than Sirius. At that time, he had even seen the Peruvian Venomtooth dragon preying on humans, and he knew the nature of this creature very well.

But... he also understands that there are a lot of weird things in this world, so he is more accepting of them.

"With the help of the fire dragon, these crazy dark wizards will have nothing to fear!"

Almost at the moment he said these words, all the wizards in the battle discovered that the shadow that had been hovering in the air for a week suddenly leaned down and rushed downwards.

"Roar"

As he got closer, the strong body of Norbert, the Norwegian Ridgeback, was finally fully revealed, with almost ink-colored dark green dragon scales, a neck and back with hard barbs, and Charlie astride his neck.

Sure enough, a wizard riding a fire dragon arrived!

Just above the heads of the wizards, Norbert suddenly flapped its broad wings, and amid a burst of strong airflow, it suddenly paused in mid-air.

At that moment, I saw Norberta's dragon kiss, and the blazing flames suddenly spit out.

Facing the terrifyingly high temperature of the dragon's breath, even the black-eyed wizards with that weird black substance need to be careful to avoid it. Naturally, these crazy wizards whose defenses are not much different from ordinary people cannot resist it.

Immediately, a large number of enemies scattered on the battlefield ahead, trying to escape the flames, but many were still swept away.

For a time, the numerical advantage turned into a disadvantage, and there were suddenly a lot of running "fireballs" in the open space of the square.

If there is something called "when a tiger breaks into the sheepfold", it probably refers to the scene in front of you, right?

The next moment, many wizards who were still fighting shouted in surprise.

And at this moment, another figure rushed into the battlefield from the direction where the Norwegian Ridgeback came. However, compared to the appearance of the fire dragon, it was much more low-key, and basically no one noticed it.

And when the figure hurried to Sirius' side, many people realized that it seemed to be another child of the Weasley family.

"Sirius!"

"Oh, Bill?"

When Sirius heard the sound, he first looked at the eldest son of the Weasley family who was running over, and then looked up at the fire dragon that was flying again.

"Why are you here?"

"That's right," Bill said straightforwardly without any nonsense, "I've been to the Leaky Cauldron. I heard he said there are some refugees here who are difficult to escort? Charlie and I set up a third refuge at the Quidditch Museum.

Yes, I'm going to pick them up this time."

"Ah, yes..." Sirius was talking when he suddenly waved his hand and said, "But in my opinion, at least it would be more appropriate for Charlie to stay here first. The Fire Dragon is really suitable for this kind of larger-scale battle.

I will allocate some people to you, and you can lead them to escort the refugees."

When Bill heard what he said, he couldn't help but subconsciously look at the battlefield ahead, and then nodded clearly.

"Uh, that's fine."
