The thunder thorn in James' hand finally failed to penetrate Snape's body.

This was not because he was soft-hearted and unable to take action when facing Snape, his former friend.

Being kind to the enemy is the most deadly behavior in war.

Not to mention, Snape and James were not friends at all.

As early as when he was a student, James had fantasized countless times about killing Snape, the snot-nosed man who secretly coveted his girlfriend, but he never took action in the end.

On the contrary, he accidentally saved Snape's life on the night when Lupine transformed into a werewolf.

Not to mention Snape.

With his love for Lily, he had definitely imagined countless times in his mind the scene of killing James Potter and then replacing her as Lily's pillow.

The dark Elder Wand broke through the air and came to James' chest.

The thunder thorn in James' hand was also getting closer to Snape's heart little by little. If this blow could succeed, Snape would definitely be seriously injured.

But that's only if.

The two attacks hit each other almost at the same instant.

The sharp black rod penetrated James's shoulder. The moment the black rod penetrated his body, James' complexion changed instantly, because he suddenly felt that the magic power in his body was disturbed, and his body began to become unstable.

controlled.

The thunder thorn in James' hand also hit Snape's chest, but it failed to penetrate Snape's body like the Elder Wand pierced his body.

The lightning thorn at the front of the wand, which was condensed by lightning, did not cause any disturbance at all when faced with the death cloak on Snape's body.

As if encountering a black hole, the lightning dancing on the tip of the staff was instantly absorbed by the cloak.

There was only a bare wand left poking at Snape's body. Apart from tickling him, it had no effect on Snape at all.

James' body froze in place.

Snape pulled the Elder Wand out of his body, but the black rod broke automatically and detached from the Elder Wand, remaining in James' body, tightly confining him.

"I've wanted to do this for a long time."

Raising his hand, Snape once again condensed a black rod, his eyes narrowed, and he stabbed it into James' body again and nailed it to the ground.

Then, the third black rod penetrated James' neck.

The fourth root, the fifth root...

Until the eighth one, five consecutive black rods penetrated James' five limbs respectively, nailing him to the ground in a large shape, making him completely unable to move.

The power that disturbs the magic contained in the black rod makes the cracks everywhere on James, the reincarnation of the dirt, become more obvious and dense.

Just like an old, mottled and wrinkled wall, as long as James moves his body a little, a large amount of paper scraps will fall off from his body.

He did not give up the struggle, but this struggle was in vain.

Two black rods were enough to block all his movements, but Snape stabbed him eight times out of personal grudges.

If these eight black rods are strong enough, not even Kyle can break free, let alone James's strength.

Ignoring James who was doing useless work on the ground, Snape turned his attention to the huge barrier rising into the sky in the distance, "It's almost time to come to an end."

As soon as he finished speaking, a curse suddenly shot out from the sloping ground. The curse suddenly broke through the air and hit the unprepared Snape, sending him flying backwards.

A figure appeared next to James, raising his hand to hold the black rod stuck in his neck.

Feeling the looseness of the black rod at his neck, James tried hard to look up, but his attempt to see clearly who was coming failed in the end.

With one cheek on the ground and unable to move his head at all, no matter how hard he tried to look at the sudden appearance of reinforcements from the corner of his eye, he could only see a pair of legs standing almost against his cheek.

"I never thought that one day I would join forces with you."

The voice coming from above made James slightly startled, because the owner of this voice was all too familiar to him.

You must know that he and the voice master originally existed as enemies from different camps. They fought against each other many times, but there was no winner every time.

"Barty Crouch?"

As Barty pulled out the black rod from under his hand, James, whose neck was released from the restraints, was finally able to see the face clearly.

Although little Barty's appearance has undergone many changes compared to more than ten years ago, he is much older, and at the same time, he is much more haggard due to Voldemort's death.

But James still recognized him at a glance.

"Now is not the time to reminisce about the past. If you have anything to say, let's save it for later."

Little Barty's men kept moving. Taking advantage of the few seconds before Snape could recover, he quickly pulled out all the black rods stuck in James' body.

He stretched out his hand towards James who was lying on the ground in a mess, "How long do you plan to lie here?"

Seeing this, James smiled and put aside his past grudges with Barty Jr., a Death Eater, for the time being. He took the hand he extended and used his strength to get up from the ground.

It was only at this moment that Snape's figure reappeared in front of the two of them.

"Severus," at this moment, Barty finally addressed Snape by his name directly again, "isn't the gift I specially prepared for you a good one?"

Feeling the rampant magic in his body, Snape looked gloomy and said, "You..."

Before he could ask what was on his mind, little Barty answered the question he wanted to ask in a somewhat ostentatious tone like a prophet.

"The reason why I follow you is to study the Deathly Hallows that you obtained and mastered."

Little Barty laughed loudly and arrogantly, "And you actually gave me the magic power of the underworld that you absorbed through the Resurrection Stone without knowing it. This gave me excellent research materials."

A ball of red light, as clear as a ruby, appeared on Little Barty's wand.

"This is a magic I developed specifically for you, specifically for Deathly Hallows holders like you."

The next moment, the red magic power condensed into a dazzling light bomb and bombarded out.

Judging solely by the amount of energy contained in it, the power of this attack was not great, but Snape just did not dare to face its edge.

Although the power of the attack is not strong, for some reason, it can greatly disrupt the underworld magic running in his body just like the black rod Snape stabbed at James.

To this day, Snape still feels that magic power rushing through his body, interfering with his ability to perform magic.

This is why it took Snape so long after he was successfully attacked by Barty Jr., until Barty Jr. pulled out eight black rods from James' body before Snape stood between the two again.

in front of people.

Facing this incoming attack, Snape's figure turned into a black mist and moved sideways.

James' figure also disappeared from the place along with Snape.

At the moment when the black mist condensed into a human form, the wand in James' hand shot out a bolt of lightning, and the overwhelming energy went straight towards Snape.
