In This Hogwarts Without a Savior

Chapter 359 357. Prelude to death

The atmosphere became eerie.

It’s not that people’s memories cannot be tampered with, but even the most advanced Occlumency technique can only easily change long-standing memories. And if it happened not long ago or less than three days ago, There is absolutely no way to manipulate the memory.

Especially when Jon pulled out this memory of himself in front of everyone around him.

Matthew's face was still so calm. He took a deep breath and walked to Jon's side, holding a transparent glass bottle in his hand.

"Leave it to me. There will be someone on the referee team who will verify this memory. If we really find any clues in it, we will definitely give you and Dumbledore an explanation."

Jon looked up at Dumbledore, and Dumbledore looked at him and nodded slightly.

So Jon shrugged and put this memory into the bottle in Matthew's hand.

"Well, I hope you can afford to give this explanation after you find something."

The matter about the crazy fire dragon in the Forbidden Forest has come to an end. Of course, Matthew will not directly start checking this memory in front of many people at the scene. Some things are just to avoid these reporters for the sake of fairness.

At this time, everyone looked at the lost Emil who was still standing on the edge of the silver line. Matthew asked again.

"So, do you still plan to continue playing? Mr. Lestrange."

Emil looked up helplessly and looked at his vice-principal, but Bosted didn't look at him at all. Instead, he lowered his head with a cold face, not knowing what he was thinking.

Now, the boy finally couldn't hold on any longer. He dejectedly took the bag containing the golden snitch in his hand and walked out of the silver line at the edge of the Forbidden Forest.

The moment he stepped out, countless flashes captured this scene, which also represented the end of the first event of the Triwizard Tournament.

The three federation referees present did not waste any time. They came to Jon, Diane and Emil respectively, took the bags from their hands, and began to inspect the results of their competition in front of everyone. .

In the end, there was no surprise for Jon. He was the one who gained the most. He found a total of 216 Golden Snitches.

In fact, if there were not those few fire dragons chasing after him, he would have gained more, but no matter how much he got, there was no way to add any points to his score. It would have been the same whether he had or not.

Emil's harvest was actually not bad. He found a total of 148 golden snitches. He must have received some unknown help in the Forbidden Forest, otherwise he and Diane would not be able to do this if they were actually about the same strength. degree.

Needless to say, Diane, after meeting Jon, she rushed directly towards the edge of the Forbidden Forest. When she saw Jon, she caught 86, and now there are only 86 at the end of the game.

According to the ranking of results, Jon scored 70 points in the first place. Counting that he ended the game in second and scored 30 points, Jon now ranks first with a total score of 100.

Diane was ranked third and only scored 30 points, but Jon pushed her at the last moment and allowed her to finish the game first and score 40 points, ranking second with a total score of 70.

Emil finished second with 50 points, finished third with 20 points, and had a total score of 70, tied for second with Diane.

Although it is not bad, this is certainly not the result that Emil expected. According to his initial thoughts, the worst ranking would be for him and Jon to tie for first place.

Of course, the one at the bottom is Draco, who was eliminated at the beginning of the game. Even though he was eliminated at the beginning, he still got the guaranteed 20 points and is now in last place.

But what happened in the Forbidden Forest might not be a bad thing for him, if from the beginning he had no intention of getting any good results in this Triwizard Tournament.

Just when Matthew finally announced the results of the first competition event, suddenly, the sky suddenly lit up with a miserable green light!

The light shone on everyone's face, and the nearly ten spells representing death were shooting straight at a huge fire dragon at the top!

Little Barty was going crazy with anger!

His arm was obviously burned by the dragon's breath, and there was still a burning smell coming from there.

Fire dragons have never been a scary creature in the eyes of wizards. For wizards who have been domineering in the magical world for thousands of years, there are almost no magical animals in the world that can make them afraid, just like normal social monsters. The melons are also at the top of the food chain.

But these are all based on the fact that wizards have actually kept these species in captivity in the name of protecting fire dragons, and even when controlling the number of dragons in the wild, there are still groups of professional dragon slayers hunting them. kill.

But now there are only more than thirty adult wizards in Hogwarts Castle, and there are seventeen or eight fire dragons attacking the castle. On average, two people can barely deal with one, and neither of them has experienced special dragon training. Things will only get tougher.

Alecto was lying on the ground, wailing like a tied-up pig.

Her body was in tatters, with burns everywhere. She had not yet recovered from Barty Jr.'s Cruciatus Curse, so she could only lie on the ground and roll around.

But little Barty didn't allow her to leave this dangerous place. The reason was simple: whoever stepped back would die!

He had truly practiced this. Just three minutes ago, a teacher who was teaching the first-year flying class at the Half-Blood Academy retreated and wanted to escape from the astronomy tower. As a result, Barty Jr. fired a death curse without saying a word.

This crazy behavior happening to him is both horrifying and somewhat natural.

Anyone who is absolutely loyal to Voldemort is basically crazy. If he wasn't crazy, then he wouldn't be called Barty Crouch Jr.

But no matter how hard they tried, they had little effect when facing these fire dragons, and there was no way to cause much effective damage to them.

Even if some pure-blood college professors and Aurors can use the killing curse, the power of the killing curse they release can kill people, but against fire dragons, it can only make them nosebleed or become more crazy.

Little Barty knew he couldn't go on like this. When he first discovered the fire dragon riot, he sent people to find Voldemort for help. However, the castle itself was very problematic. It was very troublesome for Voldemort to come over, especially at the beginning and end of the semester. , the students have been staying in the castle for this period of time.

Now he doesn't know whether Voldemort can wait until he does, but there will really be casualties on the Astronomy Tower. Although he was crazy and had given up his cruel words, his few senses also told him that all the professors in Hogwarts Castle could not really die in this meaningless castle defense battle. .

If it reaches that level, not to mention the issue of the prestige of the British wizarding community and Voldemort himself, their entire force will suffer heavy losses!

Little Barty gritted his teeth. He couldn't even feel the pain on his burned left arm, and his hoarse roar spread throughout the astronomical tower.

"Those who can use the death curse should aim at the Ukrainian iron belly directly above!"

He planned to organize the existing resistance forces to at least make the situation less difficult. From the beginning to the present, the one who was most active and dealt the biggest blow to their group was the Ukrainian Iron Belly.

The professors on the astronomy tower heard what he said. Not everyone can do the death curse. This is not only about whether there is that kind of murderous intention in the heart, but also about the threshold of magic power and will level.

There were only about eight or nine people at the scene who could use the death curse, and after hearing Little Barty's voice, they all raised their wands together!

"Avada Kedavra!"

The sound of the death curse sounded on the astronomical tower, and the nearly ten miserable green spells even suppressed the golden-red light of the dragon's breath, lighting up the night sky, and shot straight towards the Ukrainian iron belly.

The threat of death stimulates the brain of this fire dragon, but its size is the largest among all dragons, and it is impossible to avoid it at such a close distance!

As a result, none of the death curses failed, and they all hit its world-famous iron belly.

The next second, the originally splayed wings of this Ukrainian iron belly stopped. In its blood-red eyes, the brilliance representing life was passing away, and then the huge body fell heavily to the ground!

Little Barty found a very clever time to release the death curse. It was just when the fire dragon was flying away from the castle. Otherwise, even if he killed it, the impact of its falling would be enough to kill everyone on the tower. All pressed into pulp.

After the dragon corpse fell to the ground, the entire Hogwarts school shook violently for a moment.

The students hiding in the castle didn't know what was going on, but such terrifying movements still made them scream. Even the usually silent mirror-like black lake had countless water splashes jumping up. It made a splash!

Little Barty was breathing heavily, and his face showed some relief. No matter what, it at least meant that they now had the means to kill these fire dragons.

But the relaxation on his face didn't last for a few seconds. The next moment, a more violent tremor made the whole castle start to shake!

The turbulence was so great that many people even had the illusion that the castle was about to collapse!

The death of a Ukrainian Iron Belly made the remaining living fire dragons even crazier!

They collectively collided with the center of the castle surface, causing the magic guarding the castle itself to become shaky, as if it might break at any time.

And there was another Ukrainian Iron Belly left in the sky. After seeing the death of its kind, it roared violently, and the blazing dragon flames covered the entire astronomical tower!

The high temperature instantly enveloped everyone. They had just collectively used a killing curse, and they had no time to react before jointly using a universal anti-spell to resist.

Little Barty felt despair in his heart. He could not imagine why things would develop to this point.

Isn't this their plan against that little mudblood? Why will the ultimate bitter fruit fall on them?

Just when he was about to close his eyes and wait for death, suddenly, the burning sensation disappeared!

Little Barty opened his eyes blankly, and then he saw the man he regarded as his spiritual pillar standing in the center of the astronomy tower.

He was wearing a decent dark green robe, and the night wind ruffled the hem of the robe, making him look so different from everything around him.

It's just that the man's face didn't look good. He looked at the flying fire dragons with their wings spread in the sky, and gently raised the wand in his hand.

No one heard the spell, but in the next moment, green light illuminated everyone's faces!

The Ukrainian Iron Belly, which was spraying sparks from its throat and preparing for the next dragon's breath, completely froze up!

It took Barty Jr. and his group of nearly ten people to jointly use the Death Curse to kill the fire dragon. He died under such a silent curse without even reciting the curse.

None of the Hogwarts professors who were still alive around them had any disbelief on their faces, and some just looked at the man with endless admiration and admiration.

That's how omnipotent he is.

After killing the iron belly, Voldemort swung the wand in his hand, and the dragon corpse that was originally staying directly above the astronomy tower fell towards the other side as if it had been hit by a sledgehammer.

He turned his head and looked around at the people around him with cold eyes, and then without saying anything, his whole person transformed into a black mist and flew towards the sky!

The green light of death continued to light up around the castle. Those fire dragons had no room for resistance at all. Each of them could not withstand this man's death curse. In less than a minute, the fire dragons who were originally Huo The dragons surrounding Gwarts Castle were like dumplings, constantly falling from the sky.

The dragon disaster that more than thirty elite wizards had no control over was not even a trouble in front of him. The crushing of magic at the level allowed him to launch a dictatorial rule over the British magic world, which also made him a leader in this world. They have almost no opponents.

After solving the troubles facing the castle, Voldemort did not return to the Astronomy Tower, nor did he go to see Dumbledore. He did not come into contact with anyone, and he remained alone and silently in the form of the black mist. , arrived at the eighth floor of Hogwarts Castle.

He stood in front of the blank wall, and soon a wooden door suddenly appeared. He flew in, opened the trap door, passed through the secret passage, and finally came to the Slytherin's secret room.

He walked into the secret room with a completely expressionless face, and finally opened the stone door carved with two snakes, and came to the room where there was a statue of Slytherin himself and a room full of magic texts.
