349. The battle in the village of Little Hangleston

At the end of the morning's lesson, Scott and Eddie meet up and walk through the castle's back garden to the edge of the Forbidden Forest.

Instead of swaggering this time, they took a detour to a place where it was not easy to be seen.

"The guy who fought the centaurs last night, I don't know if the professor found anything." Eddie said as he stared curiously into the depths of the Forbidden Forest.

When Scott returned to the dormitory last night, Eddie looked at the panoculars that "captured" the battle scene for a long time, but they never saw the identity of the wizard who attacked the centaurs.

"The two things may be related." Scott walked towards the Forbidden Forest, "It's just that we don't know now. ”

Eddie asked, "You mean last night's battle in the Forbidden Forest and what happened to Little Hangdon?" ”

"Yes." "Of course, it's also possible that it's just a coincidence. ”

"I don't think it's so much of a coincidence, although it's the Forbidden Forest, it also belongs to Hogwarts." Eddie said.

Scott understood what he meant, this place belonged to Hogwarts, and if it wasn't for the special circumstances, no other wizards would dare to come here.

"Right here." Scott didn't go far before he stopped.

He had no idea of going deep into the Forbidden Forest.

After all, there was a battle in the Forbidden Forest last night, and those centaurs may still be under martial law.

He reached out and pulled out his wand and waved, "Flocks of birds." ”

Several crows emerged from the tips of his wands, flapping their wings and chirping.

"Just wait here." Scott said to Eddie.

It wasn't long before a dense flap of wings sounded, and blackened crows flew in from all directions through the forest.

Eddie looked at this scene with some surprise, "Oh, I never knew there were so many crows living in the Forbidden Forest, how did you do that?" ”

"Ga ......"

With an exceptionally loud chirp, Rimbaud descended from the sky and landed on Scott's shoulder.

Scott reached out and touched Rimbaud's wings, and said to Eddie with a smile, "If you can be friends with the Raven King, you can do it too." ”

Eddie stared at Rimbaud for a long moment, "Looks like you're hiding a lot of secrets. ”

Scott just smiled and didn't explain.

As a qualified Ravenclaw, Eddie is also very measured and does not dig deeper.

"What about our panoramic telescopes?" He looked left and right, "Haven't those eagles come back yet?" ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Rimbaud, who was standing on Scott's shoulder, screamed again.

Soon, several crows crows clutching the telescope with their claws flew out of the flock and placed the telescope on the ground in front of Scott and Eddie.

"What about the eagle?"

Although Eddie asked, he didn't really care about the whereabouts of the eagles, and he couldn't wait to pick up a panoramic telescope and look at it.

"Oh, it's this morning, it's the morning's ......," the fingers of his hands flicked the dial at a rapid pace.

Scott crouched down and retracted all of his panoramic binoculars into the shape-shifting lizard's skin pouch.

"Let's go." He stood up and patted Eddie on the shoulder, "We'd better not stay here for long." ”

"Well, I haven't found the picture we want to see." Eddie shrugged his shoulders.

He handed the panoramic telescope to Scott, who took it away.

"Let's go to Fred and George's studio first and see if we can find what we want before the afternoon class."

Scott turned and walked out of the Forbidden Forest.

"If not...... I'm going to join the Transfiguration Club at night, and I need you to find out all the images we need and organize the information. ”

"No problem." Eddie was excited.

Scott nodded, "It's a nuisance......"

"I don't think it's a problem." Eddie interrupted, "I can't wait to see what's going on." ”

The two of them walked briskly through the garden into the castle and into the corridor on the third floor.

"Left and right separation."

Eddie tapped the statue of the one-eyed hunchback witch with his wand.

"Now they're all having lunch." "We can go to the studio and look for inventory," he said. ”

The statue cracked, and Eddie swooped in, followed by Scott.

The two sat on a slide and slid down quickly.

"Aside from the wizards who experienced it firsthand last night, we may be the first to know about it!" Eddie's voice was still excited.

At the end of the slide, he couldn't wait to get up, light the lighting spell and rush into the studio.

By the time Scott walked into the studio, he had already lit all the candles and pulled out a few packets of cookies from his old desk.

"Are you sure these cookies are edible?" Scott raised an eyebrow, "It's Fred and George's stuff, who knows what they've added to it." ”

"You're right." Eddie's hand holding the cookie was a little stiff.

He rubbed his stomach, but in the end he didn't dare to try.

Scott sat down, removed the shape-shifting lizard skin pouch from his waist, and pulled out all the panoramic binoculars.

"Don't worry." He said to Eddie, who hurriedly picked up the panoramic telescope, "I still have some food here." ”

Emilia had prepared a large bag of snacks for him during the Christmas holidays, which he stuffed into a shapeshifting lizard skin bag when he left, and then forgot about it.

He dug into the shape-shifting lizard's leather pouch a few times, and a pile of colorful snacks appeared on the table.

"Oh!" Eddie's eyes lit up, he picked up a packet of potato chips, opened the bag, grabbed the potato chips and stuffed them into his mouth.

"I feel like I haven't eaten these things in a long time, and I miss them." He said vaguely.

Scott handed him another can of Coke, and Eddie was even happier.

"I love Coke! I love potato chips! Eddie cheered.

Scott picked up a panoramic telescope and placed it in front of his eyes, flipping the dial with one hand.

The image he saw quickly receded, from day to night.

Scott realized that the eagles had returned to the Forbidden Forest before dawn.

At the same time, he also found a drawback in the setting.

The eagles lost their mobility after completing the set task.

They threw the panoramic telescopes on the ground where they had grabbed them in the first place, even if they were taken by Rimbaud and the crows.

Luckily, Scott kept Rimbaud and the crows at the lake, otherwise he might not have been able to get the binoculars back.

Scott silently noted the mistake.

As his fingers flicked, the image in front of him continued to accelerate and retreat until he saw the familiar village of Little Hangleton.

It's a fixed perspective on the side of Gaunt's old house, overlooking the dilapidated courtyard of the old house.

Scott's fingers continued to move faster, and the figure appeared in the picture, but his movements did not stop, until the eagle with the panoramic telescope placed the telescope on the tree.

Scott then changed the operation so that instead of returning, the image was played forward, and the playback speed was increased.

It wasn't until the first figure appeared in the picture that he slowed it down again.

"There it is! The green-robed man! And the witch! Oh! It's ......"

At the same time, he heard Eddie's exclamations.

Scott looked at the figure that suddenly appeared in front of him.

Although the light in the picture is dim, the green robe on the figure can still be vaguely discerned.

The green-robed man had apparitioned into the courtyard of Gaunt's old house, and he circled the dilapidated three rooms before entering the house, as if checking on something.

It didn't take long for him to reappear in the courtyard and wave his hand to the sky.

Soon, more green-robed people appeared.

They rode Thestrals, guarding an ornate carriage drawn by four Thestrals that fell from the sky and filled the small courtyard and beyond.

Two magic lamps hung from the carriage illuminated the courtyard.

The green-robed man who had first appeared trotted to the carriage and bowed and pleased.

The door of the carriage opened, and a hand wrapped in black lace gloves stretched out.

The green-robed man who was bowing down hurriedly stretched out his arm and let that hand borrow strength.

Medea stepped out of the carriage.

She wore a dark green underneath and a silver thread-embellished robe, a black brimmed top hat decorated with black tulips and black lace, and a hazy black veil covering her face, revealing a straight nose and a sharp chin.

The blood-colored red lips on the lower half of her snow-white face were the only bright colors on her body.

Her red lips opened slightly, and she seemed to say something, but unfortunately the panoramic telescope could not pick up the voice.

Scott flicked his fingers, speeding up the playback.

Medea soon walked into the house, followed by several green-robed men, and disappeared into the frame.

The other green-robed people settled all the Thestrals and scattered them to guard the inside and outside of this old mansion.

Under Scott's operation, the screen fast-forwards again.

Not long after, a blood-red light shone through the cracks in the doors and windows of the dilapidated house, reflecting on the ground around it.

Again, Scott slows down the footage.

The red light first flourished, and then seemed to follow a certain frequency and flickered, like blood spilling on the ground.

Seeing this, Scott frowned.

Medea seems to have started the sacrificial ritual in the house.

It's just that this old mansion can't have enough mana to supply her to complete the sacrifice ceremony......

Unless she still has a disposable Philosopher's Stone in her hand.

But Scott soon had no time to think about it, as the battle began.

The light of the spell surged from all directions, and a group of Aurors from the Ministry of Magic suddenly appeared, fighting the green-robed men who were guarding the courtyard and beyond.

Although the number of green-robed people was superior, they were not as good as those elite Aurors in battle, and several of them soon fell.

Seeing that the Aurors were about to rush into the courtyard, three green-robed men came out of the house.

The three green-robed men took direct action, revealing extraordinary magical attainments, pushing the Aurors back, and even injuring several Aurors.

The two sides entered a stalemate.

The Aurors couldn't storm the mansion, and the green-robed people couldn't completely repel the Aurors.

In the process, Medea never appeared, and the blood-colored light from the house still flickered.

Just then, Scott heard Eddie's exclamation again.

"Oh, it's fighting! How could it be an Auror? What about the Demon King? Oh dangerous! He began to babble, "Wonderful! It's about to be taken, oh! An even more powerful green-robed man has appeared, it's too dangerous......"

And the picture in front of Scott's eyes has taken on a new twist.

With a flash of phantom light, a group of black-robed men appeared on the other side of the courtyard.

As soon as they appeared, they showed the battle of the dark wizards, green light flying, and death curses flew out of their wands, striking the green-robed man and the Auror respectively.

"The Death Eaters have appeared!" Eddie seems to have seen this scene from a different angle.

At this moment, the dilapidated fence of the courtyard suddenly moved.

The incomplete wall writhed and became one, and finally turned into an incomparably terrifying python.

The python snaked and crawled while blocking all the death curses with its body.

Dumbledore walked out of the darkness with his wand in hand.

The moment he appeared, the Aurors immediately smiled, and all the green-robed and Death Eaters couldn't help but take a step back.

This is the deterrent power of the greatest wizard of this century.

Scott looked at this scene and sighed inwardly.

Although the Green Robe and the Death Eaters showed fear of Dumbledore, neither of them fled immediately.

Dumbledore's wand stirred and he moved again.

The giant python that had been transformed into a wall quickly recovered and was mobilized again.

The head of the snake headed in the direction of the Death Eaters, its tail pumping towards the crumbling house that was always revealing a red glow.

The Aurors also began to work again, and one after another spells struck the Death Eaters and the Green-robed Men.

Under the attack led by Dumbledore, the Death Eaters and the Black-robed men quickly fell several times.

The remaining green-robed men began to defend the house with defensive spells, while the remaining Death Eaters began to fight and retreat.

Dumbledore's long silver beard fluttered, and one spell after another spat out from the wand in his hand.

The power of those spells was so amazing that it was almost impossible to make out what spells he was using.

On this battlefield, he is like a plug-in user who can turn an ordinary single attack into a powerful group attack, suppressing everyone to the point that they can't hold their heads up.

The number of fallen Death Eaters and Green-robed men began to grow.

If it weren't for Dumbledore's reluctance to kill, these people wouldn't just have fallen.

At this moment, the blood-colored light in the house completely disappeared, and Medea also walked out of the house and opened her mouth to say something.

Dumbledore stopped.

Outside the courtyard, the remaining Death Eaters were visibly panicked, and hurriedly took the opportunity to cast the Apparition Shifting Charm and ran away.

Dumbledore ignored them and walked into the courtyard alone.

The Aurors also sprang into action, grabbing the green-robed and Death Eaters who had fallen to the ground, confiscating their wands.

Dumbledore and Medea began to talk.

Because there was no sound, Scott couldn't tell what they were talking about.

But it didn't take long for them to seem to fall apart and start talking.

Dumbledore once again showed his overwhelming strength, and even Medea was barely able to hold on with the help of a few green-robed men.

At that moment, Dumbledore suddenly changed his target, and a spell shattered one of the walls of the house, revealing a figure inside.
