"What's that?" Sirius asked, stunned. He saw two-man tall brown golems burst out of the lake, and then used their sharp claws and rays from their heads to shoot at Voldemort's legions.

"I can only say that Voldemort and I thought of going together, and we were both using magic golems to make up for the lack of manpower. Ryan explained to Sirius, then turned around and ordered, "Now, according to the orders of the commanders, all of you will attack the Death Eaters and golems in small groups in the attack range. But it is not allowed to go out of the city without an order. ”

In an instant, the space outside Hogsmeade's walls was filled with all kinds of spells, and the battle was heated at the beginning. The Death Eaters were clearly caught off guard, especially as the Death Eaters and golems who had been cut off by Lane's puppets in the open space between the railroad line and the Hogsmeade walls.

However, unexpectedly, Voldemort and most of the army in front of him ignored the sudden surroundment of his men, and instead accelerated and ran in the direction of Hogwarts Castle.

"What the hell is Voldemort doing?" Hermione looked at the Death Eaters who were racing in the direction of Hogwarts in disbelief after trapping an obsidian giant with a cloud of mist and causing the golem next to Lane to shoot a ray of energy directly from his head and destroy it with one blow. She couldn't understand why Voldemort would give up nearly a third of his forces so easily.

"He may have tried to hold us back with this group of people and then attack Hogwarts with all his might. Ryan said as he unleashed a green cleavage that hit the core of an obsidian golem's head. Immediately, the entire puppet's head turned into a pile of ashes, and the blue flames that had surrounded the puppet disappeared at once.

Without the power of magic, the headless obsidian golem stiffened and fell forward. An unlucky Death Eater who was working with the people on the walls of Hogsmeade didn't notice this, only to be smashed under the fallen giant golem, and a few seconds later a cloud of crimson blood spread out from under the golem, like a rose blooming on the ground.

At this time, Ryan looked at his comrades on the left and right walls, and found that everyone's condition was better than they expected. Under the command of the guerrillas and werewolves, the improvised wizards poured their spells on the rushing Death Eaters and golems. The group of Death Eaters and Obsidian golems they fought couldn't get close.

After losing a third of their strength, the flanked Death Eaters suddenly gathered into a mass and abandoned the obsidian golems that were entangled with Ryan's golems, and then directed the remaining obsidian golems to surround and act as cover to release magic around.

"Looks like these Death Eaters are really planning to drag the battle down, so what do we do now?" Lupin ran over to ask Ryan at this time. "The wizards of Hogsmeade are able to hold the walls, but it may be difficult to pull out and attack head-on. ”

"Let me think about it. Ryan propped his chin on his left hand and said, in fact, at this time, the easiest way for him to quickly deal with this group of Death Eaters huddled together was to summon the floating fortress floating over the Black Lake in a hidden state, and then directly release a strategic spell on this group of gathered Death Eaters.

However, in this way, Voldemort will inevitably increase his vigilance, and it will be difficult to kill him with a single blow after that. And once a guy like Voldemort gives up everything and fights guerrillas, it will definitely be a headache.

Just as Ryan was thinking, there was a loud explosion in the direction of Hogwarts. Ryan looked up and saw that the protective shield that hung over the castle began to flicker and shake, which meant that there was not much time left for him to think.

"I-" Ryan was about to mobilize the floating fortress to deal a fatal blow to the group when a tall figure walked over and said, "Hogsmeade is safe, and now it actually only takes a few people and some alchemy golems to maintain the current situation." You can send enough people to Hogwarts for reinforcements. ”

With strands of wire-like gray hair and beard, and bright, piercing blue eyes hidden behind dirty lenses, Lupin quickly recognized him. "Aberforth, are there no enemies on the other side of the East Gate?"

Then he turned to Ryan and introduced, "You may not know him, he is Aberforth, Aberforth Dumbledore, the owner of the Hog's Head Bar, an early member of the Order of the Phoenix, and the younger brother of Headmaster Dumbledore. Just now, he has been in charge of the defense of the eastern gate. ”

"Fortunately. Ryan nodded to Aberforth, "I've seen your picture in Sirius's photo album before, but I've never seen a real person. ”

"It's true that the Hog's Head Bar isn't for young people like you, and it's been a long time since I've been in touch with my brother. He glanced at the group of Death Eaters besieged by the golems and the magic at the top of the city, and said, "My brother always overlooked someone to get hurt every time he made grand plans, and it seems that this time you cleaned up for my brother." ”

"Not really, this is the task he assigned to me before the war. Ryan retorted and asked. "That's a good idea, but the difficulty right now is that I can't get everyone down the road to Hogwarts. Because then the besieged Death Eaters will find everyone and come out desperately, and they will have to break through the siege of the Death Eaters who are now besieging Hogwarts. ”

Ryan didn't say anything about his special apparition, because it was time for the showdown, and he wanted to be able to leave the surprise to Voldemort. After all, the more preparation you make, the better your chances of victory.

"Then why don't you try the Secret Passage?" Aberforth suggested, "If you use the Secret Passage, the Death Eaters below won't know that we're manpowering." ”

"But didn't Albus seal all the secret passages in the castle before?" Lupin asked, a little puzzled. "It's also a big project to dig up those blocked secret passages again, and it's too late now. ”

"He didn't seal all the tunnels, at least one at the Hog's Head Bar that works now. Aberforth interrupted Lupin's babbling, "If you're ready, we'll go now." ”

"There's nothing to prepare, let's go now. Ryan said as he walked down the wall with Lupin. Dozens of seconds later, more than 20 werewolves and guerrillas gathered from all over the city, and lined up quietly in two groups on the road under the city walls.

"Are you ready?" Aberforth asked, looking at the wizards standing there with serious faces, before leading everyone towards the Hog's Head Bar. As he left, he muttered to Ryan, who was standing beside him, "My brother is always like this, focusing only on his grand goals and not paying attention to those who carry them out, and even using 17-year-olds like you as the main force to resist that person." ”

"But I can't escape this fight. Ryan whispered. "Now this place is the only one I can stand up to Voldemort head-on, and if I don't, this war will be too bad for us. ”

"No wonder my brother is looking for you to be the head of this place, because you have the same idea of carrying the burden for everyone as he does. Aberforth laughed and stopped. By this time they had reached the door of a small bar at the intersection, where a tattered wooden sign hung from a rusty stand on the door, on which was painted a severed boar's head, blood seeping through the white cloth that encased it.

"Please come in, welcome to the Hog's Head Bar. Aberforth knocked on the door with his wand, and then stood in the doorway and made a gesture of please.
