Chapter 382: Sweeping the Death Eaters
By the way, Hogsmeade must have been retaken over by the Death Eaters, and even if it didn't, the villagers were all wizards, sucking their blood!
Lockhart's mind moved, and he turned and flew towards the village of Hogsmeade at the foot of the hill where Hogwarts was entrenched in the distance. He made no secret of his arrival, so he was spotted by several Death Eaters sent to take over the village as soon as he got close, but Lockhart easily knocked them all down, sucked up the blood and sent them to the western heavens.
If there are others watching, Lockhart has to pretend to see if they have the mark of the dark devil, at this moment he is the only one on the street, and the killing ** makes him not want to know if these wizards are guilty of not dying, he just wants to fulfill the oath of "death eaters must die".
There was a rumbling sound from the other side of the castle, and the sound of fierce battles, and the shouts of people could be heard nearly a mile away, and the Dementors could be seen hovering overhead. The sheer number of Dementors had caused the temperature to drop to freezing for miles, but they seemed to have been stopped by the spell of some powerful wizard and did not dare to land to attack the defenders.
Lockhart licked the blood from his mouth, took to his feet, and flew towards the castle.
ββ
A few seconds later, the panorama of the Hogwarts battlefield came into view, the castle's exterior walls, windows, and roofs were almost destroyed during the battle, and the ash raised by the fallen buildings filled the campus. The sculptures and armor grapple with the large numbers of werewolves and necrophs, the centaurs hiding behind the sculptures and firing arrows, and many teachers and students fighting Death Eaters or strikers in the rear areas or castles. Aberforth and Harry stood in the middle, using the strongest range Patronus Charm to dispel the dementors in the sky.
"Fire!" Lockhart shouted angrily, his voice piercing through the sky, and a huge fire phoenix flew out from the tip of the Elder's wand, screaming towards the densest place of the Dementors, the scorching heat dispelled the chill brought by the Dementors, and made the Dementors everywhere they passed desperately dodge as if they were afraid of being bumped into by the Patronus.
At this point, the news of the Ministry of Magic's invasion must have reached this side. Why is the battle still so fierce?
Lockhart didn't know: the Death Eaters who were the first to get the news immediately realized that this was a huge conspiracy, but now they had no way out and had no choice but to fight on their backs - while the hired strikers didn't know the situation, desperately stormed the castle and captured the resisting members of the Order of the Phoenix, and things might turn around!
"The professor is here!" Harry exclaimed in surprise, pointing to the sky.
"Thunderball!" Lockhart pinched his wand and pointed it to the sky, without the influence of Voldemort, at this moment, he was a god on the battlefield!
The water vapor in the sky quickly pooled and condensed into huge clouds. Several bolts of lightning had formed as they tumbled, slashing at the fighting Death Eaters on the ground. This move is derived from the spell used by Zhang Jianshuo and Dumbledore during the battle, and is slightly less powerful, but it can attack several targets!
Several Death Eaters were struck by lightning and fell to the ground in smoke.
The striking appearance made Lockhart immediately the focus of the entire battlefield, and several elite Death Eaters flew out of the crowd to stop him, one of them. And he looks almost the same.
ββ
Barty Jr. has always played Lockhart, because the identity of an anti-dark magic fighter and a famous writer is really useful. Aside from not writing a new book, Barty Jr. is almost fitting into his character. But now, Lockhart, who had obviously been killed, reappeared in a menacing manner. And their master, Voldemort, didn't have time to arrive this time!
These powerful Death Eaters in front of him used to make Lockhart feel very difficult to deal with just two, but now, like a chicken and a dog, he can fight ten!
"Give me death!" Several Death Eaters couldn't even exert half of their strength, and within seconds, each of them was hit by a spell and fell upside down to the ground. When he struggled to get up, he was killed by a death curse.
"Run!" Barty was so horrified that he almost suspected that the man in front of him was the Dark Lord, and he was delirious enough to kill his own people. "Yaxley, take the brothers and run!"
Barty Crouch Jr., the head of the Enforcement Division in the eyes of the striker and the military advisor in the eyes of the Death Eaters, fought more and less, but was beaten by a wizard who looked like he came out of the same mold and lost the will to resist. The scene quickly became uncontrollable...... Even if Barty didn't shout, the Death Eaters began to have thoughts of escaping, and the moment the first striker decided to flee a few seconds later, the Death Eaters' frantic counterattack had already been declared bankrupt and the rout began.
ββ
"Let's see if your master will come to save you this time!" Lockhart became furious at the sight of this man who was almost exactly like himself, and a spell shot at him, sending little Barty flying several meters away.
The Death Eater shifted his position in the air, barely standing on the ground.
"Broken!"
The impostor was unable to gain a firm footing, and another sharp blue spell light shot out, easily piercing his body protection charm, creating a bloody hole in his shoulder.
"You won, the master really can't come and save me. Little Barty clasped his shoulders and laughed maniacally, "Don't get complacent too soon, as long as you are not the opponent of your master, you will never think that the British wizarding world can be safe!"
Knowing that there was no chance of being spared, his momentum suddenly increased, obviously wanting to use some forbidden spell...... But he didn't have an Elder Wand, and he didn't make Horcruxesβ
"You're not qualified to fight me!" Lockhart said disdainfully, "Avada is dead!"
Little Barty dodged the green light in a frenzy, but was then knocked away by a white light that followed him, and he fell heavily into the corner, never to get up again.
Lockhart walked up to him slowly, looking down at him condescendingly.
"It's not more than three things, you've lived enough. Lockhart pointed his wand to his head: "Well, no moreβold friend." β
A blinding green light flashed, and the Dark Lord's truly most loyal subordinate could no longer show anyone his masterful ability to imitate.
ββ
"And the Death Eaters have stormed the school!" Harry shouted at Lockhart, who was still trying to hunt down the other Death Eaters.
"What?" Lockhart flew back at once.
"It should be those Death Eaters with children in Slytherin, trying to save people!" Aberforth said breathlessly, "Your little wife is over there, too." β
"Damn, you stay here and hold the scene, I'll go right over. Lockhart quickly threw them off and ran towards the Slytherin common room. He had never been in a Slytherin common room, but he had been at Hogwarts for more than a decade, including his student days, and it was impossible not to even know where the common rooms of the houses were, and Pandora was also a Slytherin.
He runs down the aisle that leads to the underground, encountering one or two Death Eaters along the way, but is unceremoniously killed before he realizes he's not Barty Jr.
