Mastering Lightning from Hogwarts

Buy time?

Otis sneered inwardly. Did these Silver Spears really see them as cannon fodder?

He couldn't help but angrily retort, "So you're using our lives to buy this so-called time? Now that the time has been bought, where's the support you promised? Where are the people?"

After being rebuked by Otis, the harpy's expression became extremely gloomy. She had been counting on the Thunderbird's support to help them turn the tide, but the situation was the opposite. Their own wizards had suffered heavy losses, with many lives lost, but the Thunderbird was nowhere to be seen.

Could it be? Could it really be that today is the Thunderbird's molting period?" The harpy couldn't help but think darkly.

"What's your hurry?" Just as the harpy was struggling with this thought, the Death Song Bird interjected, "It's your duty to guard our goods, weren't you paid for it? Besides, this isn't the time to shirk responsibility. Solving the current situation is the most important thing, right?"

"Solve it?" Otis chuckled mockingly upon hearing this. "Tell me, how do you propose to solve the current situation? Are you expecting these remnants to do the job? We may have taken your money, but that doesn't mean my people will throw their lives away for nothing. I'm putting it out there: if your so-called support doesn't arrive, we're not sticking around!"

After uttering these harsh words, Otis turned and left without hesitation. He was beyond furious, as the loss of four elite Death Eaters was unacceptable to him.

Although these Death Eaters were in exile, they still yearned to counterattack England and welcome back the Dark Lord. Yet, they were losing their lives in this forsaken place. How could Otis accept that?

While the harpy and Otis were experiencing internal strife, the Pure Land Society was about to complete the cleanup on the main battlefield.

"Avada Kedavra!"

"Petrificus Totalus!"

"Reducto!"

Seth, in a display of unparalleled dominance, continuously waved his wand, using dense and violent spells to kill the last wizard who attempted to counterattack, not even sparing the corpse. He petrified it and then blasted it into dust.

Seth, slowly emerging from the dust of the corpse, resembled a ghost or deity, his face filled with intense murderous intent.

"Knut, how are the family members? Were the losses heavy?" Seth's mood was a mix of anger and heartache.

Seth was angry that these scoundrels dared to launch a counter-offensive, and many had actually reached the front lines, even penetrating the rear.

He was heartbroken by the injuries to his companions. Those who came with Seth were all members of the Jacobsen family, his close relatives. The family values of Nordic wizards were very strong, and they were very close regardless of blood relation, which fostered an extremely biased culture.

But now, with the wizards' attack, the family members inevitably suffered some losses, making it impossible for him to remain calm.

"Headmaster, three family members have died on the spot, and another four are seriously injured and may not be able to continue fighting. The rest have minor injuries," Knut reported.

Knut was the wizard who served as the librarian at Durmstrang Institute, so he still habitually called Seth "Headmaster."

Although Knut held a low position at the school, he had been Seth's assistant for many years, and Seth would always ask him for his opinion.

"What? Such heavy losses? Didn't I take the brunt of their main force? How could there be so many casualties, with three dead!" Seth's expression was one of shock and anger. He had spearheaded the attack and withstood most of the pressure during the club wizards' counterattack, so so many people shouldn't have been hurt.

"Alas, some of the attacking wizards were extremely crazy. Later, some of us recognized them as exiled Death Eaters and werewolves. Their spellcasting level was not low, and some of us were caught off guard. One of the seriously injured was apparently bitten by a dying werewolf, and we don't know if he contracted lycanthropy as a result."

Knut sighed and continued, "In addition, one wizard sneaked around to our rear unnoticed, causing us a lot of trouble and drawing a lot of fire, including me. If Professor Karkaroff hadn't pushed me away at a critical moment, I would have been hit by that person's Killing Curse!"

With that, Knut cast a grateful glance at Karkaroff in the distance, still with lingering fear.

"Death Eaters? Werewolves?" Seth muttered these two names with a grimace, wishing he could tear them to pieces on the spot.

"These bastards are operating on our territory and dare to help outsiders fight against us. They are also a bunch of scoundrels. After we return, issue an announcement in the family and the Pure Land Society, adding these two groups to the wanted list. I want them to know the consequences of provoking the Jacobsen family!"

After issuing this order, Seth looked at Karkaroff beside him with a gentle expression. "Karkaroff, you truly are the person I chose. You have not disappointed my trust in you. Rest assured, from today on, you are a benefactor and eternal friend of the Jacobsen family!"

With that, he turned to Knut and whispered, "Karkaroff is a talented person. After we return, see if there are any other witches or Squibs of suitable age in the family and let him become related to us!"

"I understand your meaning." Knut nodded knowingly. He had become a son-in-law of the Jacobsen family because of his flexibility and efficiency. Obviously, Seth was planning to use the same means to win over Karkaroff.

After explaining all this, Seth continued, "Knut and Karkaroff, please take care of the seriously injured family members and the corpses."

"As for the others..." Seth looked menacingly at the Silver Spear camp in the distance. "Follow me and attack! These bastards caught us off guard while we weren't paying attention. Now it's time for revenge! Let them know what the glory of the Jacobsen family is! I'll make sure these scoundrels die without a burial ground!"

The other Jacobsen family members gathered around Seth had long been filled with pent-up anger. In Norway, for so many years, they had been the only ones who could bully others, and no one dared to bully them. Now, someone dared to flaunt their power in front of them, simply not taking them seriously!

"Kill them all!"

"I want them to taste the Cruciatus Curse!"

"Blood for blood!"

The Pure Land Society wizards shouted in unison and launched a counter-offensive towards the camp in front of them.

Seth acted as the arrowhead of the charge, waving his wand frantically as he charged forward, sending one heavy, poisonous curse after another into the enemy's ranks.

"Quick! The enemy is attacking! Quickly organize a counterattack! Don't let them get close, or no one will be able to escape!" After seeing the opponent's actions clearly, the Death Song Bird shouted loudly at the surrounding wizards, and then took the lead in launching spells.

However, the many wizards responsible for guarding were not in their best condition after the previous battle. Most of them were more or less injured. Moreover, they had set up camp here because they were exhausted from traveling long distances and not being accustomed to the Nordic climate.

Therefore, although they knew the situation was urgent, the attack they could organize was limited. With injured bodies and already poor conditions, the spells they fired were either weak or inaccurate, unable to even slow down the opponent.

Some wizards had already collapsed behind the makeshift cover, while others had already developed the intention to retreat and wanted to Apparate away on the spot.

"What's going on? Why can't I Apparate?" One of the North American wizards, out of fear, tried to Apparate, but immediately discovered that his Apparition was not working. He shouted out in panic!

Unable to Apparate?

The wizards who suddenly heard this news felt like a bolt from the blue, causing them to lose all will to resist in an instant, leaving only blankness in their minds.

"I didn't expect the Pure Land Society to be so ruthless. They even cast an Anti-Apparition Jinx on this area. What are we going to do next, Otis?" After trying it himself, Alecto found that he really couldn't Apparate, and looked at Otis next to him in despair.

"What else can we do? We can only fight them. Running away will only lead to a faster death!" Otis's face was extremely gloomy. He didn't expect the other side to block their retreat, determined to kill them all.

The Death Song Bird, who was still fighting hard, also felt a chill in his heart. He didn't have a Portkey that could be equipped with a spear. Did that mean he was going to die here too?

Thinking of this, he suddenly thought of the harpy behind him, who was a spear. She should have a Portkey, right? He immediately looked at her.

The harpy was looking at the scene in front of her with a pale face. She did have a Portkey, but was she really going to give up the goods behind her?

"Haha, you're at your wit's end, aren't you? All of you, obediently die!" Seth had already led a group of wizards dozens of meters away and saw the fearful expressions on the faces of the club wizards.

Then, Seth slowed down his charge and once again resorted to his old trick, holding his wand to his side and then stabbing it hard in the direction of the harpy.

"Turn to dust for me, Concussion Blast!"
