Chapter 379: Killing the Snake
Lockhart stared at the snake with wide eyes, but it was the Savior who was terrified by the Savior with a wide eye and a wave of his wand.
Now, the snake fell, languidly twisting around Voldemort's neck, pulling its head off his shoulder.
"Nagini, kill the man lying over there!" Voldemort's voice became hoarse, and he commanded in a parseltongue voice, "And then him!"
When the big snake got the order, it suddenly cheered up, tensed its muscles and raised its head to stare at "Harry", and after locking on to the target, it suddenly rushed over and bit Lockhart's neck!
ββ
The savior was dead, and Voldemort didn't look at the results of Nagini's attack, and he raised his wand at Snape, ready to make him incapacitated. The benevolent Lord Voldemort didn't want to kill him, but he knew too much, so let him die under Nagini's fangs.
But something unexpected happened to him, Snape in front of him actually raised his wand at him, and even attacked before him!
How dare he?
A not-so-weak red spell came at him, and Voldemort blocked the attack with an iron charm with a wave of his wand, but the attack from a completely unexpected direction made him inadvertently take a step back.
How did Snape know that he wanted to kill him? Voldemort wondered in surprise, could it be that he couldn't hide his thoughts? What surprised him even more was Snape's strength, he knew that his men were very strong, but he never knew that it was so strong, that an attack could almost break his iron armor curse!
"Youβ" Voldemort was furious, and a violent uneasiness struck himβcould he have guessed the right course of events: Snape would really save the Savior?
Realizing that something was wrong, Voldemort immediately turned his head to look at Nagini, but he had already managed to bite Potter without any problems. After a few bites, Merlin can't save this savior!
"Severus, how dare you resist me!" Voldemort turned his head to Stare at Snape, no longer hiding his murderous intent.
"Not only will I resist, but I will kill you!" Snape was a completely different person, his face that was usually gloomy like a pool of stagnant water, but now it was completely congested and red, and his eyes were wide with rage. For the first time in more than a decade, Occlumency had been completely relaxedβand at this moment, the once-loyal Death Eater opened up to the Dark Lord once again. Their gaze was no longer subtle, and a powerful aura of magic poured out of their bodies.
"You're strong, Severus. After staring at each other for a moment, Voldemort smiled instead of being angry: "But this level is far from enough, die!"
Magical fluctuations soared from him, instantly overpowering Snape's full outburst in momentum, and a battle with a huge disparity in strength between the two sides broke out in an instant.
Snape was indeed not weak, even stronger than Lockhart before he received the Elder's wand. But in front of the First Dark Wizard, he was still an ant! He was knocked away by Voldemort's blow without any suspense - just as the Dark Lord pointed his wand at the ground to the ground. When he was once his favorite subordinate, another majestic aura that was no less impressive erupted behind him!
Between Snape's attack on Voldemort and his defeat, there were seconds, that time. What is the other person who is tied up and lying on the ground doing?
ββ
Lockhart didn't dare to do anything until he was bitten by Nagini, for fear that he would have any special abilities. All he did was twist his body, avoiding the vital point of his neck, and facing Nagini with his shoulders. But by now the fangs had been driven into his muscles. The snake can't run away!
He injected a little bit of magic into the Elder wand he held in his tied left hand, easily breaking the vine that Snape had pulled out to look like, and his left arm clamped Nagini in the crook of his left shoulder like a pincer. The right hand holding the dagger stabbed the big snake with all his might!
Almost no resistance was encountered, this dagger that stabbed and stabbed many powerful cultivators, after a hundred years, in a foreign land thousands of miles away, another miraculous feat!
ββ
"Avada Suo!" Lockhart stabbed the dagger into the living Horcrux with his right hand with a vigorous twist, extracting the magic from the surrounding air, and unleashed this killing spell, a fierce green light flashed on the dagger, pouring into the snake's body!
The serpent could not speak, or it might let out a piercing scream, and it writhed a few times in a frenzy, but was silent.
Lockhart miscalculated - at this moment he and the serpent were almost one, and at the same time that the death curse was killed, the residual power of the spell passed through the snake's fangs to Lockhart's shoulder, and he was also electrocuted into a soul shock, revealing a huge flaw for a while.
"Nagini!" Voldemort's eyes cracked, and the pain in his soul made him realize that Nagini was too dead to die anymore - he never gave all his trust and words to anyone, except this simple-minded snake, his only friend!
Lockhart and Voldemort were briefly confused by the damage to their souls, while Snape was lying on the ground and felt that the world was spinning, and none of the three of them could seize the opportunity of the enemy to reveal their flaws!
ββ
Merlin's condom, fortunately, this dagger does not have the function of enhancing spells like the elder's wand, otherwise it would be killed by his own death curse, which is really rare enough to be included in wizard textbooks to warn future generations of death.
Lockhart pushed the snake corpse away from himself, put away the dagger, handed the Elder Wand in his left hand to his right hand, staggered to his feet, his shoulder numb, and quickly waved his hand to drive the mana, forcing out most of Nagini's venom. Before he could clean up the venom, he raised his hand to block Voldemort's attack, which also happened to be regaining consciousness...... He sighed inexplicably in his heart at the moment: now, he will finally not be knocked away by Voldemort with a blow.
"You-" The moment Lockhart raised his hand to drive the magic power to defend, Voldemort suddenly felt that he had lost control of nearly half of the magic power around him, no, not out of control, but the control of these magic powers was taken away by the Potter in front of him!
"You're not Potter - Dumbledore, isn't it you!
Voldemort felt a chill in his back, Dumbledore not only did not die, but seemed to have become stronger, so since Snape lied to have killed him, and now he is still with him, he has never been his loyal subordinate at all, all this is a conspiracy!
ββ
"Tom, good morning. Lockhart, of course, would not explain who he was, but would do what he could, pretending to use deep magic to float himself into the air, trying to scare Voldemort into his guts and break his will to fight.
As soon as he finished pretending, he frowned - Voldemort felt that nearly half of the magic control around him had been seized, but in Lockhart's eyes, it was naturally the other way around: it was the Dark Lord who still firmly controlled nearly sixty percent of the free magic power in this area, and he only seized the right to use less than forty percent of the magic power around him, and the Dark Lord was still stronger than himself!
And the third person, Snape, was sandwiched between two monsters with a magic affinity and near-infinity, and could only use the magic power in his body and within a few meters around him, and he couldn't exert his ability at all.
Although the "savior" in front of him still felt weaker than himself, after believing that the other party was Dumbledore's life, Voldemort was so shocked that he could barely hold his wand.
ββ
It's not 8:40 yet, and they'll have to drag on for another twenty minutes.
"Severus, why did you betray me...... Voldemort couldn't strike a blow, realizing that the wizard in front of him was not easy to deal with, so he didn't continue to attack, but asked with trembling hands.
"Sixteen years ago, you promised me not to kill Lily. Covered in water and mud, Snape looked dirty, and he pointed his wand at Voldemort, "But you broke your promise." β
"That stupid woman who was crushed by me like a cockroach?" Voldemort came to his senses, "You betrayed me for that woman?If you are loyal to me, what woman can't get it?" I even made you the headmaster of Hogwarts, and I don't care about you if you all those female students!"
"I just want Lily, you can't give her back to me, so I want you dead. Snape said stubbornly.
"Tom, haven't you reflected on your actions yet? Lockhart said in a calm tone in Dumbledore's voice.
"Hmph, reflect, what qualifications do you have to talk like that!" Voldemort didn't answer, his expression became hideous again, and he also levitated from the ground into the air. "Dumbledore, or Potter, I don't care who you are, you have to be here with Snape today to bury Nagini!"
