Chapter 426: Peter: I'm so hard! (2-in-1 4000 words)
Sirius strode up to Peter and forcibly pulled his sleeves, only to see that there was nothing on Peter's fat wrists.
"Not here!" Sirius was not surprised, as an undercover agent, Peter certainly couldn't have engraved the Dark Mark in such a visible place.
Immediately afterward, he violently ripped off Peter's shirt and prepared to check his chest and arms, and the latter struggled desperately to let out a terrible scream.
As if breaking through a certain threshold, Peter's body suddenly began to shrink and transform into a mouse, and the ropes that bound him to his body fell off automatically...
"Give me back, Peter, if you don't want to die!" Sirius said viciously, reaching out to pull the gray-black rat's tail.
Peter was terrified and tried to dodge, but the weak magic Ivan had applied to him was still working, making him much slower than a normal mouse.
At this moment, a red light flashed, and the unsuspecting Sirius was suddenly knocked out of the air, hitting the low wall next to him...
"Who?"
The sudden abnormality surprised everyone, and Ivan waved his wand for the first time, striking out a magic beam and shooting it towards the door, and the red light just now flew in from there...
A transparent barrier of magic slowly rose from the empty doorway, blocking the beams of light.
However, the fluctuations caused by the magic also caused the effect of the illusion spell to be broken by the way, and Snape, dressed in black robes, appeared in front of everyone.
"S... Professor Snape? Hermione stammered and screamed.
"Very well, let's see what I've found!" Snape ignored Hermione, he glanced around the scene, his gaze lingering on Sirius for a moment, then turned to Ron, who was tied up, and Harry, who had just cried.
"Lupin! I guessed correctly, it's that you've been helping Blake infiltrate the castle, but I didn't expect you to be so bold as to use this old place as your shelter... It's really easy for me to find. ”
"But you're smart and the timing is good! If Malfoy hadn't cleverly discovered your werewolf identity and came to me and told me where you were going with a suspicious appearance, you might have been able to get away with it today! ”
Snape's face was full of irrepressible pride, and after half a school year, he finally caught Lupin's handle!
If nothing else, Lupin and Sirius will be sent to Azkaban together today, and the Dementors may be happy to give them a kiss!
Nothing makes him happier than that!
Listening to Snape's words, Lupin's face suddenly changed, he didn't expect Snape to follow behind him all the time.
It's that bottle of wolf poison potion!
Lupin soon realized this, as the Wolf Venom potion Snape had given him had weakened his senses and made him weak.
So much so that he didn't notice that anyone was following him the whole time.
"Severus, you're mistaken! I'm guessing you must have just arrived and didn't hear what we were saying, Sirius wasn't here to kill Harry, Peter did everything..."
A look of eagerness appeared on Lupin's face, but before he could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by Snape.
"Don't try to cheat me, Peter is dead, and so is James! Now it's just the two of you, and when I get you both out, there will be no more mess! Snape shouted at him.
"Professor, Professor Lupin didn't lie to you, Peter is the real betrayer...", Harry plucked up the courage to speak.
"Shut up! Porter! I think you should be in Hogwarts Castle right now, right under the noses of all the professors!
I think it's time for you to have a better brain, to believe the words of a werewolf and a murderer, and now that something goes wrong, you only know how to cry! ”
Snape gritted his teeth and looked at Harry, disappointed in him, Harry had broken the school rules three times and twice, and now he had run outside without permission, knowing that he should have cast a spell to lock him in the school.
Harry was so angry that he couldn't speak, he had his own ideas and judgments, he could go wherever he wanted, and he didn't need to be guarded like a baby!
"Professor Snape, didn't you hear Peter's voice outside? He's an Animagus, and now he's a mouse..."Ivan said anxiously, his gaze fixed on Peter's movements, unlike the others.
The gray-black rat was holding its weak body and slowly crawling towards the exit, and Ivan raised his wand and prepared to strike.
However, it struck a fragile nerve at Snape, as he stood at the exit, Ivan's wand vaguely pointed at him.
"Enough! Do you think I'll believe this trick? It's best not to let me move around! After I tie you all up, I'll consider listening to your explanations slowly..."
Snape said sharply, holding his wand and pointing at Ivan and Lupin, not daring to be distracted at all, his attention was all focused on them, of course he didn't dare to look down at any rats...
Although he knocked out Sirius as soon as possible, the threat of the two people in front of him was not small, and even if he was not careful, he could be hit.
With this in mind, Snape took the lead without warning, and a white beam of light struck straight at Lupin.
Lupin was in a poor state, reacted a beat slowly, and only had time to build a magic barrier to block a little, but was hit by a beam of light and knocked to the ground.
Ivan saw that Lupin was attacked, and Peter slipped near the gate, and immediately did not hesitate.
"A flock of birds!" Ivan waved his wand, and since it was against Snape and Peter, he didn't use a lethal spell.
The clutter and wooden planks piled up around were rapidly transformed under the effect of magic, but in a matter of moments, flocks of birds had already gathered, like flying arrows, rushing to the doorway...
Half of it was for Snape, and the other half was for Peter!
However, Ivan's plan fell through, and with a flick of his wand, Snape flicked his wand, and a black light exploded in midair, and the flocks of birds were corroded before they could get close...
After absorbing the nutrients, black flames appeared from the corroded bird wreckage, and swept away out of thin air...
Peter was walking in the middle of the fierce battle, his heart was in his throat, and the beams of danger passed over his head, and from time to time a few spells fell on him.
Peter could only dodge as best he could, praying that he would be able to escape.
On the battlefield, a spell struck Snape, only to be deflected by a reflex beam and flew towards Peter.
He jumped up and dodged in a thrilling way, but the aftermath only lifted him up, crashed into the air, and slammed into the door.
Peter squeaked and screamed, and his whole body was injured and disgraced, but his face was full of excitement that could not be concealed, because the exit was ahead, and he would soon be able to escape!
Thinking of this, Peter ignored his physical weakness and climbed across the threshold and ran towards the evening sunset...
The joy of life and death filled Peter's mind...
Then a slender and thin hand suddenly reached out from the shadows and grabbed its tail, lifting it up...
......
Inside the room, fierce fighting continued.
"Hals, I didn't expect you to collude with Blake, it looks like you brought Potter and Weasley here!"
Snape snapped, his movements didn't stop, he cast a few spells with his backhand, and even hesitated to use some high-intensity curses!
After all, Ivan's strength far exceeded his expectations.
He originally thought that even though Ivan had a good talent and his strength far surpassed that of his peers, it was not big after all, and it was the level of an ordinary adult wizard or even an Auror.
I didn't think that if I left my hand for a while, I wouldn't be able to take him for a while!
Ivan used his wand to hold a round table to block Snape's attack,
Ivan watched the whole process of Peter slipping out of the door in a hurry, so he looked at Snape who stopped in front of him both anxious and helpless.
Although he had Dobby watching, it wasn't 100% safe.
Like Snape sneaking in this time with the illusion charm, Dobby didn't find out...
Thinking of this, Ivan was ruthless, regardless of the risk of exposure, he had to use bloodline magic to solve the battle, and he must not drag it on!
Ivan closed his eyes, and when they opened them again, they had turned orange snake pupils.
Snape was defenseless at all, and under the eyes of each other, a chill that penetrated deep into the bone marrow surged into his heart, and his body froze suddenly, and his consciousness seemed to be sucked in...
However, Ivan on the other side is not in a good state, Snape's magic power is more than three times higher than him, and the difference in total amount makes the consumption extremely intense, and the magic power is pouring out like a flood!
This made Ivan secretly cry in his heart, he used the Basilisk Pupil to quickly solve the battle, but unexpectedly fell into the dilemma of competing for magic power...
"Except for your weapons!"
At this point, Lupin, who had fallen to the ground, relented and seized the opportunity, swinging his wand to fire a beam of light that hit Snape.
Unable to dodge, Snape was hit head-on, and the glow of the Iron Charm lit up on his body, blocking the spell.
However, due to the fact that the protection of the Iron Armor Charm had been almost reduced in the previous battle, it was quickly shattered after absorbing the power of the Disarming Charm.
Snape was shocked back a few steps in succession, and at the same time broke away from the control of the basilisk pupil.
Feeling his stiff body, Snape was terrified, this kind of magic that could petrify people by looking at each other, he had never heard of!
On the other side, Ivan had closed his snake eyes and was panting heavily.
Using the Basilisk Pupil on Snape this time once again made Ivan see one of the shortcomings of the Basilisk Pupil, that is, it is best not to use it on people whose magic power is far greater than his own!
In less than a second of activation, he had lost a third of his mana, and Snape didn't look like he was completely ineffective...
Snape moved his stiff wrist to confirm Ivan's state through the reflection of the broken glass on the ground, and only slowly breathed a sigh of relief when he realized that Ivan had consumed a lot.
It would be terrifying if that kind of magic could be used indefinitely!
Fortunately, it seems that there are some limitations...
After this little delay, Lupin had already stood up, and the field returned to a two-on-one situation.
"Stop, Severus! It's just a misunderstanding, we have no reason to fight... There's no need to waste time here," Lupin finally admonished.
"Waste of time?"
Snape's face turned unsightly, he frowned, then said disdainfully.
"Very well, it seems that I left your hand to give you some illusion that you could easily defeat me? Remus, it's not the same as it used to be, and a lot of people doesn't work that much! ”
As Snape spoke, he didn't know what he remembered, his face became a little hideous, he raised his somewhat stiff wrist, and the invisible blade gradually coalesced at the tip of his wand.
"Today is the death of you and Blake, and no one can save you!" Snape yelled.
"Not necessarily? Mr! ”
Behind him, a shrill and strange voice suddenly sounded.
Snape's face changed dramatically, and he suddenly felt his waist be hit violently, and his wand suddenly came out of his hand, and his body fell straight to the rotten cabinet next to it...
Then, a small house-elf walked in from outside, clutching a miserable gray-black rat in his hand.
"Well done, Dobby!" Ivan was relieved to see this, and immediately waved his wand to contort a rope to tie Snape up.
Seeing this, Lupin also put away his wand and hurried to check on Sirius.
"Professor Snape! If you can put aside your prejudice against Professor Lupin and Sirius, and think about it, you should know that we didn't lie to you...", Ivan shrugged his shoulders and opened his mouth to explain.
Snape didn't reply, and although he couldn't move, he still looked at Ivan and the others viciously.
"I think I need to fix him so he can be honest!" Sirius stood up with Lupin's support, and was furious at the thought that he had been knocked unconscious by Snape's sneak attack.
"Save it, don't make a mess, if it weren't for the bad jokes you made before, it wouldn't have caused today's misunderstanding!" Ivan said angrily.
You even told him about that?
Sirius looked at Lupin suspiciously, only to see that Lupin was also confused.
After thinking about it, they both turned their heads to look at the gray-black mouse in Dobby's hand at the same time.
That must be what Peter said!
Peter, who was caught in Dobby's hands, mistakenly thought that Sirius and Lupin wanted to settle accounts with him, and his heart was half cold...
