The voice was low and hoarse, with a huge sense of oppression.

Devereux was stunned and looked over at the sound, only to notice that there was a person lying behind Lupine.

A large woman, to be exact.

"Principal, are you okay?"

Fleur's voice came from the small box, with a hint of anxiety.

Only then did Devereux realize that the huge figure in front of him was the principal of Beauxbatons School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, Madame Maxime.

A half-blood giant, taller than Hagrid, the gamekeeper at Hogwarts.

At this time, Mrs. Maxim was half lying in the corner of the booth, her face was pale, and there were beads of sweat on her forehead. She was obviously suffering from great pain.

One of her arms was hanging softly on the ground and had turned into pure gold. The other hand was pressing her chest tightly, as if trying to suppress some kind of power spreading from her body.

Devereux glanced at his surroundings and finally understood.

"It turns out that this is Beauxbatons' booth. No wonder it looks much wider than other places, and it's also particularly sturdy."

He looked up and looked around. The ceiling of the booth was supported by thick wooden beams, and the surrounding walls were also made of some kind of magically reinforced material. Bullets could only leave slight dents on them.

Devereaux muttered under his breath.

"It's really a fortress tailor-made for giants..."

Madame Maxime leaned against the wall of the booth, her face was pale, and her forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat.

She was obviously not in good shape.

The entire arms, shoulders, and half of the chest and abdomen had turned golden, as if eroded by some strange corrosion.

But the strange thing is that she did not completely transform into a golden eagle like the others, but stayed in a creepy intermediate state.

The golden skin seemed to be stained with mottled lesions, which looked like some ancient skin disease rather than complete metalization.

"This may be because the physical resistance of the hybrid giant is relatively strong..."

Devereaux thought to himself, his eyes sweeping over Madame Maxime's huge body.

Although he also considered another possibility - perhaps the designers of these curses did not expect giants to be targets at all, so they only provided doses for ordinary people, but obviously, the former explanation is more reasonable.

After all, Hogwarts' Hagrid withstood the spell siege of several wizards from the Ministry of Magic, and was able to break out of the siege calmly in the end.

The strength of the giant's bloodline is definitely not comparable to that of ordinary people.

Devereaux swallowed, feeling a little complicated.

"To be honest, if I weren't afraid that I would become like this, I would really like to load myself with some giant bloodline first and use it at critical moments."

Madame Maxime seemed to notice Devereaux's gaze, raised her head, gasped, and spoke with difficulty.

"Before... this kind of thing also appeared in Burgundy... so... I have seen it..."

Her voice was low and hoarse, filled with great pain, and every word seemed to be forced out of her throat.

Devero frowned, stared at her metal body, and asked.

"Have you seen this kind of curse? Does it have any weaknesses?"

Madame Maxime did not answer directly, but took a sharp breath and gritted her teeth to hold back the severe pain in her chest.

Her facial muscles twitched slightly, and it was obvious that this curse was not just as simple as the metalization of her body, but was also accompanied by unbearable torture.

Devereux's heart sank when he saw this.

"It seems that this thing is not only an external change, but also accompanied by some extreme pain."

"curse?"

Devereux caught this word in the roar of gunfire, and was slightly startled. Then a smile appeared on his lips, and his eyes turned to Lupin, with excitement shining in his eyes.

"Speaking of which, we are experts in this area..."

His tone was relaxed, as if he didn't care at all about the predicament at hand.

However, before he finished speaking, a loud noise suddenly came from his ears——

Bang!

A golden giant ax fell from the sky and cracked open the wall behind them, sending debris flying and making the entire booth tremble.

"Depend on!"

Devero cursed in a low voice, rolled away, and quickly raised his head on guard.

The giant ax was slowly pulled out from the broken wall, revealing the golden eagle holding the axe.

It was a burly black man, with a metal face that could still vaguely recognize his appearance in life. His eyes were shining with a strange golden light, staring at Devereux.

"Hey, it looks like he's a foreign guest."

Devereaux grinned, a hint of teasing in his tone.

The golden eagle did not respond to his teasing, but said in a low and cold voice.

"You, Devereux, and I will watch all your friends die in front of you, one after another, before it's your turn."

After hearing this, Devereaux was stunned for a moment, and then he laughed. The laughter seemed particularly harsh amidst the chaotic gunfire.

"Hahaha! Then you do what you say, I'm sorry, 'Uncle Black'!"

While smiling, he quickly turned over and clenched his left hand tightly. His arm instantly expanded several times, his muscles bulged, and his skin turned a strange green, as if some mutated power was surging in his body.

"Let's go!"

Devereux shouted low, twisted his waist suddenly, and hit the golden eagle man's waist with his huge fist like a green boulder.

Bang!

The golden eagle was directly knocked away by this punch. The huge metal body drew an arc in the air and knocked over a golden eagle that was shooting with a gun. The two fell to the ground together, making a series of dull collision sounds.

"Lupin! Get me some confusable agent!"

Deverot dodged and quickly ordered, with an unquestionable urgency in his tone.

Lupin nodded quickly, took a deep breath, lowered his head and bent over to rush into the hail of bullets.

His figure looked particularly thin in the firelight, but he did not hesitate at all.

At the same time, Deverot's left hand quickly returned to its original state. He flipped his hands, and two daggers appeared in his palms like phantoms.

Deverot tapped the blade of the dagger with his fingers, making a crisp metallic sound.

"It's time for you to see some of my power."

As he moved, the scales on Deverot's arm seemed to be awakened, and instantly flowed like liquid, sliding along his wrist to the dagger, covering the blade, and emitting a strange glow.

"Come, control them for me!"

Deverot shook his hands violently, and two daggers with cold light broke through the air, directly hitting the two golden eagles approaching him.

The dagger drew an arc in the air, as if it was given life.

The moment it touched the golden eagle, the surging scales on the blade suddenly split and turned into two thick snake shadows.

Hiss——!

The two giant snakes made a low hissing sound, and the snake bodies quickly coiled around, tightly entangling the two golden eagles.

The golden eagle tried to struggle, but the snake body was getting tighter and tighter like an iron chain, and even made a harsh sound of metal friction.

"It's not over yet!"

Deverot laughed and made a pulling motion with both hands.

The giant snake seemed to sense his command, twisted its body violently, and dragged the two golden eagles backwards, aiming at the direction of the Hogwarts booth.

The dragged golden eagle was like a captured prey, and its metal body scratched deep marks on the ground, making a harsh friction sound.

Every time the giant snake took a step forward, its scales emitted a strange cold light, as if mocking the golden eagle's powerless resistance.

"To be honest, I have dealt with the curse of the god of death."

Deverot stood up straight, shook his wrist, and had a relaxed smile on his face.

"What is this?!"
