Chapter 622: Mutation

Seeing a large crowd of chaotic students blocking the hallway, Ryan and Hermione immediately retreated to their box and pushed open the window. After that, with the help of the hook claw, he pulled the window frame and rolled over and jumped on the roof of the car.

After coming to the roof, the car has stopped, and I have to say that the magic brake system is indeed better than the normal one. Ryan and the two of them half-crouched and scanned the surroundings vigilantly, and sure enough, from the direction of the front of the car, there was a magical light and the sound of battle. It seems that the plan adopted by the attackers this time was to attack the front of the train or destroy the railway route, of course, attacking a train is the simplest plan.

But apparently there were more attackers, not just the small number of people in front of the car. In the few seconds that Ryan was on the roof of the train, black shadows began to appear in the woods at both ends of the railway, and then all kinds of magic shot at the cars behind them. Fortunately, at this time, the Aurors and senior students in the carriage barely reacted and blocked those attacks.

"Clear the woods on both sides first. Ryan said as he used his soul to contact the Rose Crystal. Soon the box in the box shelf was opened from the inside, and a purple light flew out of the box and flew into the woods on the side. Ryan was a little worried that the road might not be uneasy before he set off, and Rose Crystal volunteered to hide in the box as a backhand after knowing Ryan's worries, and now it is obvious that it is being used.

Ryan and Hermione took a brief apparition to the other side of the woods next to a wizard who was laughing maniacally and casting a requisition spell on the carriage, before his stunned gaze popped out his Hidden Blade and stabbed him in the throat.

"One. Hermione's somewhat cold voice came from beside her. "I just counted the magic that came in, and if I guessed correctly, the number of attackers hiding in the forest is around sixty, and there is still a lot to do today. โ€

For Ryan, the forest is their hunting ground. After attacking two or three raiders under the cover of trees, they discovered that the Death Eaters who had come to attack the train were basically dark wizards and scum that Voldemort had recruited from all over Europe in the previous round. Although some of them are really good, they are a mess in terms of coordination. So in just a few minutes, they were easily killed by Ryan and them.

The Death Eaters in the woods also found their accomplices disappearing, and as a rabble, they lacked the will to fight to the end. When Ryan and the others eliminated the eighth Death Eater, the remaining Death Eaters apparitioned and fled.

And the same is true of the attackers in the woods on the other side, and the mortality rate is even higher than on this side. Because for Rose Crystal and Jill, facing a large number of scattered enemies in this complex environment is their strength, not to mention that they are both professional assassins. By the time the Death Eaters found out that something was wrong and ran away, they had already lost nearly 1/3 of their men.

"18 pcs. "Through the soul connection, Ryan counted the results of the battle just now, and it seems that they have left nearly 1/3 of the enemy. The Aurors inside the carriage also noticed that the attack outside was gone, but instead of coming out to check, they stuck to their posts. After all, it is now important for them to protect their students.

At this time, the sound of battle in the direction of the front of the car also died down, and Ryan and Hermione rushed over to find seven or eight dark wizards sitting on the ground bound by spells, Professor Dumbledore with a long white beard standing there wearing a blue robe, and several Aurors led by Mad-Eye Moody stood beside him. There were several washbasin-sized holes on the red front of the train, and white steam was constantly pouring out of the holes.

"Professor, this isโ€”" Ryan asked, looking at the sights in front of him.

"These are the attackers, but unfortunately we didn't ask anything. "It's not that they're hard-mouthed, it's that Voldemort only gave them the order to attack the Hogwarts Express, and didn't say anything else." Luckily, I had guessed that the Hogwarts Express might be attacked before the semester started, so I was on guard today, and rushed over as soon as I received the notification from Moody. โ€

"The only thing I don't know is what Voldemort sent this rabble here for? โ€

It seems that Dumbledore didn't know a lot of things, but fortunately there was a plan in advance, so this is also the reason why Mr. Headmaster was able to show up a few minutes after the Hogwarts Speedy was attacked to stop the attack.

Ryan suddenly thought of a possibility, and just as he was about to say something to Dumbledore, Dumbledore suddenly stopped and looked up at the zenith behind Ryan. Ryan also turned his head when he saw this, only to see a white ball of light flying towards him like a meteor. Seeing this scene, he suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart.

Sure enough, the silver light fell lightly to the ground and turned into a glittering, graceful lynx. Then he opened his mouth and spoke in the loud, deep, slow voice of Kingsley Shackle.

"The Ministry of Magic has fallen. Scrimgeour is dead. The Ministry of Magic has been locked down in a state of emergency, and now all of London is under their control. โ€

Everyone's faces suddenly became ugly, but fortunately, only five or six elite Aurors led by Headmaster Dumbledore, Ryan, Hermione, and Moody heard the news, so order could be maintained for a while.

"โ€”Albus, what do we do next?" After a few seconds of pause, Mad-Eye Moody asked Dumbledore.

"We're going to fix the train back to Hogwarts Castle first, and it's too dangerous to leave the kids in this unprotected wilderness at any point. Dumbledore made a decision immediately.

It has to be said that Voldemort chose an excellent time to act this time, because at this time, Dumbledore had to personally follow the Hogwarts Express to protect the students. It was the perfect window for Voldemort and his Death Eaters. Even if Mr. Headmaster knew the news of the fall of the Ministry of Magic, he would not have rushed to recapture it. This gave Voldemort's side time to take full control of the Ministry of Magic.

"Headmaster Dumbledore, now that the Ministry of Magic has fallen, then Azkaban can't have any more accidents at this time, please allow us to go to Azkaban now to ensure that it doesn't fall into the hands of the mysterious people. Ryan thought about it for a moment, and immediately thought of another direction, so he said to Principal Dumbledore, who had drawn his wand and was about to repair the head of the steam locomotive.

"What are you talking about, Azkaban must have a pass from the Ministry of Magicโ€”" Mad-Eye Moody retorted after hearing Ryan's words, but was stopped by Dumbledore before he could finish speaking.

"Alasto, I'm sure he must have a way to say that. Dumbledore calmed Moody and turned to look at Ryan, who knew from the attack at the end of last year that Ryan and Hermione had mastered a special kind of spatial magic that could penetrate existing magical defenses.

It's just that he didn't tell anyone about it, and he even made a special trip to the Sirius family's ancestral home to make sure through magic that Malfoy and Narcissa, who knew about it, wouldn't reveal the secret to others.

Therefore, after Ryan took the initiative to ask for help, he did not veto Ryan's request, but asked: "Are you sure? You must know that Voldemort will definitely send someone to attack Azkaban and rescue his accomplices." โ€

"Be sure, Mr. Headmaster. Ryan said categorically. "I can quickly change some of Azkaban's magical defenses, and I'm sure it'll be fine for a few days with the help of the magic there. Anyway, in this case, I don't think the mystery man will come over in person. โ€

"Well, I wish you all the best, if you can't hold on, you can withdraw directly. Dumbledore knew that this was not the time to grind, so he simply agreed to their actions.

"Then we set off. Ryan pulled Hermione and bowed to Dumbledore, before disappearing with a snap.
