The Emerald at Hogwarts

Chapter 623 Coward
Every time Voldemort and his Death Eaters kill someone, they leave the Dark Mark on the scene.

Even before Voldemort's return, people still feared the mark. At the 1994 Quidditch World Cup campsite, just a single Dark Mark caused great chaos.

Now that this terrifying sign has appeared above Hogwarts, does this mean that someone has been killed?
Under the reflection of the stars, the green Dark Mark is like a new constellation, and the light shines from the windows of the castle in the distance, illuminating the pitch-dark place.

Ada's breathing suddenly became heavy. The tragedy of the Ministry of Magic this afternoon left her with lingering fears.

The gray-white clouds swiftly shuttled through the night, one figure after another flitted before Ida's eyes, including Death Eaters and Dark Wizards, Order of the Phoenix and professors, and Aurors stationed in Hogsmeade... …

Flashes of spells, shouts, fighting sounds, beams of counterattack, a great melee unfolded on the campus.

Ada landed in the open space in front of the castle, and before she could stand still, she saw Greyback rushing towards her.The reckless werewolf moved very quickly, using both hands and feet, and in the blink of an eye he was in front of Ada, and she could already smell the werewolf's stench.

With a light tap of the Elder Wand, Greyback seemed to have bumped his head against a wall of air, and instantly fell to the ground. He shook his stupid head, as if trying to force himself to wake up.

Apparently the greedy and stupid Greyback was thinking too much.

Hearing another muffled sound, Greyback fell to the ground again, his limbs twitched, and his head seemed to have been hit by a heavy hammer.The leader of the werewolves who did all kinds of crimes died just like that.

A few minutes ago Greyback was biting Bill Weasley, throwing Harry Potter to the ground, and doing his best.A few minutes later, his head was like a smashed watermelon, with red and white parts flowing all over the floor.

Moving forward, Ada wanted to enter the castle to see if the person she cared about was safe and sound.

After walking a few steps, Ada saw Neville Longbottom sitting on the ground, the Gryffindor crybaby.

Ada's impression of him is still in the past, the cub who was beaten badly, but hugged Crabbe tightly, and Goyle didn't let go.Today's Neville not only has a successful counterattack in terms of appearance, but he is no longer the round-faced kid who used to be.

A pale Neville sat on the ground, clutching his stomach with one hand and flailing his wand with the other.The curses shot indiscriminately played an unexpected role, making a female Death Eater very embarrassed.

That was Alecto Caro, and from her surname she was from the Holy 28 family.Alecto also has an older brother named Amycus, both of whom are Death Eaters.

At this time, the Carlo brothers and sisters were planning to escape, and ran out of the castle one after the other.

As the saying goes, Alecto is not a master, but Neville's indiscriminate punching curse successfully stopped her, making her unable to advance or retreat.

Not far from Neville and Alecto, Ginny also stopped Amycus who was trying to escape.

Ginny's red hair fluttered like flames, her wand shot out harmful spells like the Crushing Curse from time to time, and even a huge bat pounced on Amycus.Like a sister, like a sister, Ginny's ruthless appearance has a bit of Ada's youthful demeanor.

But the stout Amycus is not a small character. Although he was disgraced by the Bat Spirit Curse, his counterattack still made it difficult for Ginny to parry.

"Cruciatus - Cruciatus - let me see the look of pain on your face, pretty baby!" Amycus laughed as he shooed the bat away.

Amycus's attacks were all Cruciatus, and he seemed to enjoy torture.

This is why the Death Eaters are so powerful. They use the Unforgivable Curse recklessly, and no one can make mistakes when confronting them. If they make a mistake, they will have no chance to stand up again.

But Amycus was destined not to be arrogant for long, because Ida who was passing by had already raised his wand, and the Cruciatus Curse hit his chest. With a howl like a pig being slaughtered, Amycus fell to the ground convulsively.

It just so happened that Ginny's Shattering Curse came one after another, hitting Amycus's arm, and the whole arm was blown to pieces by the spell, and a cloud of blood mist came out.

Alecto, who was on the side, saw this scene, and she let out a distraught roar, and shouted sharply: "Avada Kedavra!"

Alecto Caro shot with hatred, and the miserable green light went straight to Ada.

Ada tapped the Elder Wand, and the green light of the Killing Curse deflected and landed on the open space. Then the Elder Wand flicked again, and Alecto immediately hung upside down in the air.

Then I saw a few unusually large bats rushing towards Alecto, and the female Death Eater was immediately surrounded by bats.

This head-grabbing behavior is very... Forget it, it's nothing, as long as Ginny is happy.

"Ada, it's Snape and Nott!" Ginny said anxiously, "Harry has already gone after them!"

With that said, Ginny stretched out her finger, which was the direction of the main entrance of the school.As soon as she finished speaking, Ginny hurried into the castle to support the others.

In front of the opened oak door, Professor McGonagall, Lupine and Sirius were fighting a Death Eater there.A little further away, Ron and Tonks could be seen fighting a big man hand in hand.

The big guy had a fight with Neville, and the spells were inaccurate and flying around.

Speaking of Neville, Ada looked down for the little crying bag that had just been sitting on the ground, but couldn't find it.Looking up again, I saw Neville clutching his stomach and limping towards the castle with a firm back.

If Mrs. Longbottom saw this resolute and brave figure, she should feel very relieved!
The scuffle in the school seemed to have been going on for a long time, but Dumbledore did not show up for a long time, and Snape seemed to be fleeing again. Ada knew that she was late, and what should have happened had already happened.

Turning around, Ada ran towards the main entrance of Hogwarts. She always felt that tonight was not easy.

The members of the Order of the Phoenix are here, and the Aurors from the Ministry of Magic are also there. Is Voldemort really planning to give up the Death Eaters again?

The Death Eaters left here tonight, plus the Death Eaters left at the Ministry of Magic, can Voldemort really bear such a huge loss?

Unless Voldemort had other plans, plans that Dumbledore and Snape didn't know about.As long as this plan is successful, no matter how big the loss is, it can be made up for!

Speeding up her pace, she recklessly passed through the melee crowd. Before seeing the fleeing Snape and the chasing Harry, Ada saw Hagrid next to the fire, fighting a blond Death Eater.

The strong physique inherited from the giant's mother made Hagrid thick-skinned and thick-skinned. Ordinary magic attacks were not painful to him. The enraged half-blood giant waved a huge pillar of fire to chase after the blond Death Eater.

In the distance, there was the sound of chanting a spell, the voice full of hatred was very clear in this night, it was the voice of Harry Potter.

……

"Fight back!" Harry yelled at him, "Fight back, you coward—"

"Coward, do you mean me, Potter?" Snape growled. "Your father never dared attack me, except four against one. I wonder what you'd call him?"

……

Harry's voice faltered, and Snape's growl wafted on the wind.It was clearly a final warning, but it sounded full of sarcasm—"It was blocked again, until you know how to shut your mouth and brain, Harry!"

"No! Have you forgotten your order? Potter belongs to the Dark Lord—let's leave him alone! Go! Go!"

It was still Snape's voice, preventing the rest of the Death Eaters from attacking the helpless Harry Potter, and there was only so much he could do.

Because Voldemort appeared at some point, standing between Snape and Harry, his scarlet pupils were filled with pride.

"Harry Potter, we meet again."
