Chapter 278: The Duel in Grimmauld Square (Second Update)

"Excuse me, is Miss Hermione Granger at home?"

Landing on Hermione's door, Hawking stepped forward and knocked on the door.

The door was opened, and a middle-aged woman looked at Hawking with some confusion and replied:

"You may be in the wrong place, little gentleman, there is no one named Hermione Granger here."

"She's Mrs. Granger, Hermione's mother, I've seen pictures of her from Hermione, how could she not know Hermione?"

Mental space, Harry looked at the situation outside, and he was also confused.

And Hawking already knew it in his heart, and politely replied to Mrs. Granger:

"Ma'am, maybe I've got the wrong address, sorry to bother."

He used his mental power to sweep the entire room, and sure enough, all the photos in the photos did not show Hermione Granger at all.

Apparently, Hermione erased all traces of herself in order to keep her parents from being attacked by her own Death Eaters.

At this time, in the memory of the Grangers, they had never given birth to a daughter named Hermione Granger, nor had they been exposed to the wizarding world.

"It's the Oblivion Charm, and Hermione used the Oblivion Charm on her parents."

Explaining to Harry, Hawking used the illusion charm to become invisible and continued to fly towards 12 Grimmauld Place.

And at the same time, on Grimmauld Place.

One by one, figures in black wizard robes appeared one by one with phantom shifting. At the head of the pack is a crazy looking witch.

She is Voldemort's number one fan, Bellatrix Lestrange.

Also Sirius's cousin.

"Little Avery, are you sure it's here?"

Bellatrix drew his wand and smiled cruelly.

One of the male Death Eaters next to her also drew his wand:

"I'm sure it's here, I'm following the wizard named Ron Weasley, and that's how he got into this building."

"Hahaha, that old fellow Dumbledore thought we'd never find this place with the Loyalty Charm.

Solve all of these Order of the Phoenix members who have always ruined our plans today. Remove Dumbledore's hands and feet, and see how he fights the Dark Lord! ”

After setting up the anti-illusion disfigurement charm with all the Death Eaters, Bellatrix did not try to find the one where the Order of the Phoenix was located from the league building that seemed to be inhabited by Muggles, but instead raised his wand with the Death Eaters in unison.

"Thunderbolt Explosion!"

Dozens of explosive spells were released at the same time.

In an instant, the entire residential building in front of it seemed to have been thrown dozens of C4s, and it exploded into a pile of ruins.

The Muggles who lived inside were either killed on the spot by the Explosion Curse or were stoned to death by the collapsed building, and almost no one survived.

The Death Eaters, who saw this tragic situation, were not moved in the slightest.

Over the years, under the leadership of the Dark Lord, although they have not completely turned against Muggles, they are no longer restricted by the law of secrecy, and killing Muggles is also a common thing.

This is just the right time to force the members of the Order of the Phoenix to show up.

Otherwise, even if they knew that this building might contain the base of the Order of the Phoenix, they would not have been able to find it without the guidance of the secret keeper.

"Bellatrix, I'm going to kill you!"

At this moment, with an angry roar, more than two dozen people walked out of the rubble of the residential building.

At the top were Sirius Black and Remus Lupin, followed by the Weasleys, Hermione, Moody, Nymphadora, and others.

After they noticed the anomaly, they immediately protected themselves with an iron armor spell so that they were not harmed.

It's just that seeing all the Muggle neighbors who usually live in the same building being killed, their hearts are also full of anger.

"My dear cousin, I didn't kill you in the Magic Division last time, so I was lucky, and this time I'll see where you are going!"

In the face of the angry cousin, Bellatrix did not have any fear, but a mocking look on his face.

As one of the most powerful Dark Wizards under the Dark Lord's throne, she didn't feel that anyone on the other side was her opponent, and the number of Death Eaters she brought with her was nearly three times that of the other side.

It was a stress-free siege.

"You murderer, I'm going to avenge Harry!"

At this moment, Ron from behind suddenly burst out, aiming at Bellatrix's neck and shooting a spell:

"Divided!"

This spell is normally not lethal, and it will leave a hole in the body at most, but if you hit the neck with all your might, there is also a chance to cut off the head directly.

As Harry's best brother, Ron, how could he bear it when he saw Harry being killed by Bellatrix in the Department of Magic.

"It's up to you, Avada!"

With a flick of his wand, Bellatrix easily flicked off Ron's spell, followed by a life-requisition spell that struck Ron.

"Ron!"

Fortunately, Hermione, who was next to her, was quick and pulled Ron to the side, and narrowly dodged the attack of the Death Curse.

Seeing that Ron did not die under the attack of his own Death Curse, Bellatrix did not pursue again:

"Early death and late death are deaths, so why do you need to struggle senselessly."

"It's not necessarily who dies, I think it might be you."

Sirius and Lupin all stood in front of Ron and Hermione.

And at this opportunity, the Weasleys gathered all the juniors at the back.

"Hermione, Ron, Bill, Charlie, we'll hold them back in a moment, and you guys will get out."

An anti-illusion was cast here, and they couldn't get away with the illusion, and the difference in numbers was so obvious that they were obviously lost.

In order not to be wiped out, they decided that for a while, they, as parents and teachers, would do their best to stand in front of the Death Eaters, and use their lives to buy time for the children to escape.

"If we don't leave, it's a big deal that everyone will die together."

Ron and the others were obviously not willing to escape, they were all adults, and they had fought the Death Eaters all these years, so it was impossible to leave their parents and teachers behind and escape alone.

The consciousness of death, they have already had it.

"I know what you're trying to do, you won't be able to run away this time!"

However, their plan has long been seen through by Bellatrix.

With a wave of his hand, the Death Eaters spread out in a circle, encircling all the members of the Order of the Phoenix.

"In that case, let's fight.

Bellatrix, anyone can live, you have to die today! ”

All the members of the Order of the Phoenix raised their wands, ready to fight to the death.

"Then it's up to you to see if you have the ability!"

The Death Eaters had cruel smiles on their faces.

Seeing that the war was about to break out, a faint but unignorable voice suddenly sounded in the sky above them:

"It seems that we are in time, and it will be really troublesome to be late."

Everyone looked up into the air.

It's just that when they saw the appearance of the figure floating above their heads, they all showed a ghostly look:

"Harry Potter!"
