Finally, after saying the name that he has loved all his life and made himself guilty for half his life. Snape sighed as if relieved, and then something in the depths of those dark eyes seemed to disappear, and they became dazed, sluggish, and hollow. At the same time, the head that had just been raised also fell to the ground, and the whole person did not move.

"Betrayal, deception. Voldemort said angrily at Snape's corpse, "You admit to me that there are other women in the world, purer in blood, more worthy of you—it's all deception." You actually deceived the great Dark Lord for a mudblood woman who didn't choose you. ”

With that, Voldemort, with his eyes blazing, angrily unleashed a spell that struck Snape's remains, turning him to ashes, and the blood on the ground mixed with the silver-blue substance. Then he flicked his robe, raised his wand, shattered the roof and flew up.

After floating into the air through a hole in the roof, Voldemort waved the wand in his hand and chanted a spell forever. As the last spell fell, a blazing white pillar of light flew out of his wand, shattering the Hogwarts castle shield in one fell swoop. At the same time, he angrily raised his head and shouted in snake language: "Nagini!"

"Long live the Dark Lord!" the Death Eaters, who couldn't understand the snake's language, cheered when they saw Hogwarts' magic shield shattered by the Dark Lord's blow, and their morale was much higher due to various misfortunes.

Hearing the Dark Lord's shout, the Hogwarts defenders immediately became nervous. Especially after the most important protective shield is gone, this cry means that the decisive battle is about to begin.

"Rush—" One of the leading Death Eaters shouted as he stood in front of everyone after carefully confirming that the Hogwarts magic shield was completely gone, and then the black crowd rushed up.

"Now—" Professor McGonagall turned to face the group and raised her wand, intending to say something to boost morale, but her eyes widened as she looked up habitually, and a look of astonishment appeared on her face.

The others watched Professor McGonagall's sudden change in face and subconsciously turned their heads to look at the top of the castle in her line of sight, only to see a scene that shocked them to the extreme: a castle floating in the sky was now suspended low above Hogwarts Castle.

"It is my pleasure to introduce you to the secret weapon I have prepared for this war, the Floating Fortress. Ryan hooked the corners of his mouth slightly, and then used his magic to amplify his voice so that everyone present could hear him. "And I've got a large army ready to stop the obsidian golems who are covering almost the entire clearing. ”

As Ryan spoke to everyone, ten holes appeared at the bottom of the hemispherical shape of the floating fortress, and black dots ejected from them. As the black dots got closer and closer to the ground, it became clear that the black dots were actually two-legged robots.

Under the influence of magic, the speed of the robot's descent slowed down as it approached the ground, and then landed safely on the ground. They soon formed a steel line between the Death Eaters and Hogwarts Castle.

At this time, the Death Eaters, who had reacted from the shock, charged, but the resisters in the castle also fought back with spells. In an instant, all kinds of magic spells filled every inch of space in the open space outside the castle.

Seconds after the exchange of fire, the group of obsidian monster golems on Voldemort's side running at the front crashed into the defense line built by Ryan's steam robots. These huge guys make violent noises in the collision, and every now and then a mushroom cloud formed by an explosion rises on the battlefield.

These explosions were created by the steam robots that rushed into the Death Eaters camp after the countercharge, and after they were created, Ryan added a self-detonating device filled with bomb cherries to them. It was clear that the Death Eaters hiding behind the golems had not thought of this move, and Ryan saw that many of the Death Eaters had been hit by fragments of magical metal formed after the explosion and never stood up.

Unfortunately, these high-speed flying pieces of enchanted metal don't hurt the obsidian golems, leaving only scratches of varying shades on their hard surfaces. So after the first round of raids, the Death Eaters who discovered this also learned their lesson and slowed down their advance, and then let the golems line up in a dense formation to the front.

However, the sluggish Death Eaters also created an opportunity for Ryan's steam robots to land. As time went on, more and more robots descended from the floating fortress, and they were reinforced by statues from Hogwarts. The line of defense was visibly thickened and solidified.

Soon after the fight, the Death Eaters couldn't even get close to the walls without taking out the floating fortresses, let alone rushing straight into the castle as they had originally planned. However, due to the distance, only a few spells hit the floating fortress, but they were easily blocked by the protective shield that came with the fortress.

Of course, Ryan's side is not without losses. As cheap consumables, the steam robots were a bit miserable except for the fact that they blew themselves up at the beginning and really caught the Death Eaters off guard. Even with the help of a large number of wizards, they would have to fall an average of five or six in exchange for the destruction of an obsidian golem.

On top of that, because the Death Eaters did outnumber the Guardians, the Guardians of Hogwarts fought very hard. Ryan saw that the two stone beasts that usually guarded the entrance to the teacher's office were hit by the oncoming evil curse when they were about to rush out to reinforce the front line, and turned into four or five pieces on the floor, squirming weakly, and moaning weakly: "Oh, leave me alone...... Just leave me to fend for myself......"

"What a blessing. Lupin said with a look of reassurance as he had cast a spell a few seconds earlier to stun a Death Eater, then ducked behind a wallpile and watched a few dangerous spells fly past the wall. I have to say that he hid in time, because the position it occupied just now was hit by at least three or four dangerous spells at this moment.

"What did you say, lucky?" Ryan waved his wand to block a spell that flew towards him, and then disintegrated an obsidian baboon that was extremely active on the battlefield with a pink light, and the group swayed from side to side to avoid the Death Eaters' fire. He then leaned against a solid stone wall and called out to Lupin a few meters away. "I think it was the greatest misfortune that we were attacked today. ”

"I mean, it's a good thing Dora couldn't come today after giving birth, otherwise I would have to worry about her at this time-" Before Lupin's words could be finished, he saw a werewolf be struck in the chest by a life-requiring spell, and then fall from the walls into the castle.

"Fortunately, he had a protective suit to block this blow for him, but he couldn't go into battle next. Ryan poked his head out and looked under the city wall, only to see Zhang Qiu quickly run to the fallen werewolf and check it, then float him with his wand and walk towards the castle, and at the same time make an OK gesture to Ryan.

"That's good," Lupin let out a long sigh of relief before continuing to engage in the fight. Ryan, the focus of the Death Eaters' fire, ran in the opposite direction, unleashing spells to destroy the powerful obsidian golems.

Ryan did this in order to lure out Voldemort, and just as he knew that the elimination of Voldemort was at the heart of the war, Voldemort knew that he could only storm Hogwarts Castle and kill Harry if he eliminated Ryan. It's just that now Ryan has been hiding in the castle with the others, and Voldemort, although conceited, is not arrogant enough to think that he can storm the castle alone and defeat Ryan under the siege of a large group of people after his men are blocked.

So for Voldemort, he must now break the deadlock and kill Ryan in the shortest possible time, otherwise he will be completely defeated when Dumbledore returns.
