Chapter 156: The Battle of Hogwarts (2)

"Nope. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info," Harry said. He looked at Phoenix and Hermione, trying to tell them silently that time was running out.

"We're leaving. He said,

"And what do we do, Harry?" asked Seamus, "what's the plan?"

"Plans?" Harry repeated. He used all his willpower to prevent himself from falling into Voldemort's rage again: the scar was still burning and aching. "Well, we - Phoenix, Hermione, and I - need to do something, and then- you need to leave Hogwarts, right now!"

No more laughing or screaming. Neville looked confused.

"What do you say, 'get out of here'?"

Phoenix hurried over and dragged Harry back.

"How?"

"He's coming, he told the Death Eaters we're going to the Chamber of Secrets—" Harry said sharply and softly.

The people around were obviously not happy with their whispers.

"Professor Snape is fast," Phoenix said, "then we need them," he said, glancing back at the people in the room, "they're mostly adults, and Hogwarts has a lot of Slytherin students who are also Death Eaters, besides the Caro siblings." You and Hermione will need their help, I'll go to the Great Hall. ”

Harry's gaze shifted from Phoenix to Hermione, and she muttered, "I think Phoenix was right." I'll hold Knott back at most, how can you deal with the Carlo siblings and a couple of students by yourself. ”

He agreed, looking at Phoenix, but the latter shook his head.

"Most of them are your people, you say it's better. Phoenix understood what he meant.

"Alright," Harry said, turning to the others, "yes, we're back—we're not just going to overthrow the Carrot siblings, we're going to defeat Voldemort." ”

The crowd gasped.

"He knew I was here because we needed to do something at school. He tried to concentrate as much as he could, Voldemort's anger rising, "If you're willing to help us—"

"Of course!"

The other members of Dumbledore's Army nodded yes, some with a fist, some with serious expressions, and two of them got up from their chairs, expressing their desire to act immediately.

"Okay, please be quiet," Harry said happily, still dizzy from the presence of so many people, and the scar on his forehead was burning with sharp pain.

The noise immediately subsided, and everyone seemed alert and excited.

"We need to go to the Chamber of Secrets, where we can destroy something, something important to Voldemort," Harry said, "but the Death Eaters already know, and I think the Caro siblings and some Slytherin students are already there." I need you to hold them back and give us enough time to do things. ”

"No problem, Harry. Neville said calmly, "Everybody get dressed and pick up their wands. ”

"Shall we go too?" Teresa said excitedly.

"No, you're not old enough. Phoenix said firmly.

"That's right, wait. Harry hurriedly stopped everyone, "Someone who is only 17 years old can follow us." The Death Eaters will not show mercy to our men, they must be at least 17 years old!" he stressed.

"No!"

Immediately there were people who expressed dissatisfaction.

"That's right," Neville said calmly, "you stay, and you Creevey—"

Neville quickly picks a team, led by Ron. He himself stayed to ensure that those who were not old enough would not sneak out.

"Harry, I need a living map. Without saying a word, Harry took the map out of his small pocket on his chest and stuffed it into him.

"How are we going to get out?" Harry asked Neville, turning his head.

"Right here. ”

He led Harry and Hermione to a corner, a small cupboard leading up a steep staircase.

"It leads to a different place every day, so they never find out," he said, "and the only trouble is that you never know where you're going to end up." Be careful. ”

"No problem," said Harry, "I'll see you later." ”

The group hurried up the stairs, and before leaving, Ron glanced at Phoenix in a hurry.

"Neville, I'm going to the Great Hall. Evacuate the students, and Voldemort will soon lead the Death Eaters in an attack on Hogwarts. The deans will leave here with the underage wizards in a moment, and you will have this place evacuate with you. Phoenix said, "Teresa, Margaret, you two stay here." Let's go. ”

"No problem. Neville agreed.

Teresa looked equally dissatisfied, but after a look at Neville's resolute look, she dismissed the thought and sat in the corner with Margaret muttering.

The enchanted ceiling of the Great Hall was dark and hazy, shimmering with starlight, and the milky white figures of the ghosts of the school flashed here and there.

The students hung their heads as if they were sculptures and stood silent. The teachers stood in front of the teacher's bench, restless.

The auditorium door was slammed open. Phoenix wears a black dueling outfit with the Hogwarts coat of arms on his chest and a cloak that moves with the wind behind him. He walked briskly among the students, with an indescribable momentum - Rogge and the others went straight back to their respective house tables, and unlike the others, they held their heads high.

There was a commotion in the auditorium.

"Mr. Peverell, how can you-how-" Professor McGonagall didn't hold on to her chest and tremble and couldn't speak, "you should come, go now, the sooner the better." ”

"No, Professor. You'll understand right away. Phoenix laughed and declined.

"Quiet!" Phoenix caused several screeching fireworks explosions on his wand head before everyone fell silent. He stood next to Professor McGonagall and turned to face the students. All of a sudden, the auditorium was silent, and the professors stood in place at a loss.

"I'm here to bring you the news: Voldemort will soon attack this school. Another shrill scream, but was silenced by Phoenix's voice. "Because Harry Potter needs to do something in school, in order to defeat Lord Voldemort. Therefore, for the safety of the students, on behalf of the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry Board of Trustees, I am temporarily closing the school, please follow the prefects to evacuate immediately, someone on the eighth floor will take you out of the secret passages-"

- The evacuation was supervised by Mr. Filch and Mrs. Pomfrey. When the prefect hears my order, he organizes the students of your academy and is responsible for sending them to the evacuation site in an orderly manner. ”

Many of the students looked stunned. Ernie McMillan stood up from the Hufflepuff table and shouted, "What if we want to stay and fight?"

His words won some applause.

"If you're old enough, you can stay. Phoenix said.

"But I want you to think carefully - I don't want to hide anything, there is no doubt that this war against Voldemort is coming to an end. Tonight's battle will change the fate of the wizarding world forever, and it will be a life-and-death contest in which many will be sacrificed. Whatever the outcome, they will know that we are fighting with honor and for the freedom and safety of our fellow citizens!"

"Now make your decision. Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, and Ravenclaw erupted in cheers around their tables, shouting about their intention to stay and fight.

"Where's our stuff?" asked a girl at the Ravenclaw table, "where are our boxes, and our owls?"

"It's too late to pack up your belongings," said Phoenix, "and the most important thing is to get you out of here safely." ”

"Where's Professor Snape?" cried a girl at the Slytherin table.

"In layman's terms, he's already in the coffin. As Phoenix finished speaking, Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, and Ravenclaw erupted in cheers around their tables. For the first time, the Slytherins showed frightened faces.

"You Slytherin traitor!" a Slytherin girl she didn't know from Phoenix rushed out and pointed her wand at Phoenix, "Shame on you purebloods!

"Avada suo!" she suddenly moved in the middle of her words, as if she was about to take her by surprise.
