The Emerald at Hogwarts

Chapter 685 The Darkest Hour ([-])

There are too many acromantulas driven out of the Forbidden Forest. The huge spiders form a solid, towering wall of copper and iron. The big pincers click and click together, and many pairs of eyes shine on those ugly black heads... …

The rattling sound became louder, the rustling sound became denser, the weirdly hairy legs moved quickly, and in a blink of an eye, the spider swarm rushed into the place where the wizards from both sides were fighting.

Shrieks of terror and cries of pain sounded one after another, and the acromantulas waved their shiny black pincers, attacking every wizard they saw.

Whether it is the Death Eaters under Voldemort, or the teachers and students defending Hogwarts, and the Aurors, they are all regarded as a meal by the acromantula.

Melee, killing, death, flames... All these fell into Ada's eyes, stirred her nerves, and aroused the deepest desire in her heart - kill, kill everyone present; kill, completely purify the world!
In the darkness, many spells crackled and shot at Ada. These spells either fell through and rolled up a cloud of dust, or were blocked by other wizards, or hit other people, but none of them hit Ada accurately.

Then, another batch of spells hit Ada, and several more spells passed over her head. The power of the spells even blew her hair, and a few strands of hair mischievously left the bondage.

"Human beings are animals too!" Ada sighed inappropriately.

Her voice was a little distorted in the evening wind, it was no longer crisp and melodious like a wind chime, but it was as long and desolate as it came from ancient times.

Raising his hand, the Elder Wand waved it horizontally, bringing up several puffs of blood mist, and the scarlet hot blood floated in the air, blooming extremely delicate and bewitching flowers, and the corpses of Death Eaters were the fertilizer that nourished these flowers.

Since the attack on Hogsmeade, the battle that lasted for several hours has already made people jealous, and turned many people into machines that only know how to kill.

Even in the face of the mighty Esmeralda Drizzt, the Death Eaters' attacks were still crazy and fearless.

A tall Death Eater rushed towards Ida, wearing a hood and waving his wand, the Killing Curse and the Cruciatus Curse shot out from the tip of the wand continuously, and there was only endless fanaticism in his eyes.

Ada raised her gray-white-covered left hand, and time seemed to be frozen. The red Cruciatus Curse and the green Killing Curse seemed to be caught by her bare hands, hovering there.

Then, Ada raised her hand, and the spell shot by the Death Eater flew back backwards!The spell that flew back fell into the Death Eaters coalition army, and the screams and the sound of the body falling instantly rang out.

And the Death Eater who shot Ada couldn't die anymore, and even his wand was broken by the rebounding force.

"Drizzt!"

A loud shout exploded in the Death Eaters coalition, Albert Runcorn yelled loudly while stabbing out his wand, and another Killing Curse flew towards Ida.

Ada's figure disappeared abruptly on the spot, and a piece of grass was blown up by the failed Killing Curse.

What is strange is that Albert Runcorn did not continue to attack, nor did he search for the missing Ida, his eyes became dull and his eyes became slack.

He put his wand against his neck strangely!With a soft pop, the thin wooden stick pierced Albert Runcorn's neck, and blood flowed out, soaking his black robe.

Runcorn lay limply on the ground, with a helpless gurgling sound from his throat.

Ada, who had disappeared, reappeared, and the Elder Wand worked from left to right, cutting a Death Eater with one stick like chopping melons and vegetables.

Just walking and killing all the way, Ada came to the vicinity of the group of giant eight-eyed spiders.

The ground has been stained red with blood, broken spider legs, pincers, and human corpses are scattered all over the place.The ferocious acromantula is enjoying the food. They either eat the entities of the same kind, or devour the stumps and arms of human beings, feasting on them.

Ada saw Hermione, and the second generation of Miss Know-It-All screamed and shot spells, and the powerful spells repelled the giant spiders one after another.

Ron, who was shaking violently, stood in front of Hermione. Spiders were what he was most afraid of, but Mr. Ronald Weasley didn't take a step back.

Ron shouted words of unknown meaning, and his trembling hands kept shooting spells, and the crushing spell blew up the acromantula that rushed up.

Ada also raised her wand, but she didn't choose to slaughter the acromantula, but drove them away, driving them in the direction of the Death Eaters coalition forces, and let them (they) kill each other.

The acromantula naturally wouldn't be so obedient, they swung their pincers to fight back, and then they remembered the fear of being dominated by Ida.

The golden-red flames continued to gather, and the big bird fluttering its wings hovered in the low sky. The bright light illuminated the night sky. The slender legs of the acromantula twitched horribly, and quickly moved away from the high-temperature big bird.

The flames billowed, and the fiery big bird spread its wings and took off, chasing the fleeing acromantula, burning the acromantula and the Death Eaters together.

At this moment, more people rushed from the castle to the playground, including students and wizards.

Fred and George held their wands aloft, and joined the battle with the patrols of the secret passage.

Then, rows of desks flew out of the castle, and the speed of the desks was faster than Qiu Mingshan's AE86!
The speeding desks crashed into the Death Eaters coalition army, knocking down many people directly, and the wooden desks fueled the fire even more.

It was Professor McGonagall. Her serious face looked dirty, and there was a wound on her left cheek. She also brought her hands to support the battle on the playground.

Similarly, Professor Flitwick and Professor Sprout also rushed to support.

Despite his diminutive stature, Professor Flitwick is skilled and agile, showing the might of a dueling champion.

The kind-hearted Professor Sprout has always been kind, but tonight she changed her past amiable image and acted decisively without mercy.

The Death Eaters no longer had the advantage, and the balance of war continued to tilt towards Hogwarts. The Death Eaters were driven out of the castle little by little, and kept retreating. It seemed that it was only a matter of time before they were driven out of the school.

When the Death Eaters retreated, a dense rain of arrows shot from the direction of the Forbidden Forest, causing chaos among the Death Eaters.

As the sound of hoofbeats got closer and closer, the centaur Bane, Ronan and Margery rushed over. The vigorous centaur each bent their bows and set their arrows, and the arrows kept throwing at the screaming Death Eaters.

Did you win?
Many people ask themselves in their hearts, as if they want to give themselves courage in this way.

But everyone knows that the battle is far from over, Voldemort (the mysterious man) has not shown up, and as long as the Dark Lord is alive, the war will never end.

Just like 16 years ago, everyone was celebrating Voldemort's death, and the celebration even violated the International Statute of Wizarding Secrecy.

All naively thought that the darkness had been dispelled and that they had won.But the reality slapped everyone hard. Fourteen years later, Voldemort made a comeback in the summer, causing even greater terror.

Tonight, although everyone has driven out the Death Eaters little by little, as long as the Dark Lord does not show up and participate in the battle, the trend of this war is still unclear, and the victory will be taken away by the Death Eaters at any time.

The night was getting darker and darker. Even though the blazing flames were warm and bright, they couldn't dispel the chill that emanated from the bottom of people's hearts.

Many people looked at Ada, who controlled the flames, at the woman who had just turned [-] years old—can she defeat Voldemort like Albus Dumbledore defeated Gellert Grindelwald?

Also, where is Harry Potter?
Suddenly, a high-pitched, clear voice overwhelmed all the uproar, and Voldemort's cold voice resounded through the night sky again. He said, "Put down your weapons, and the merciful Lord Voldemort gives you one last chance to beg for mercy."

Voldemort walked slowly through the dilapidated wrought-iron gate, Nagini the snake gliding beside him.

Step by step, Voldemort passed through his loyal Death Eaters, scattered the fiery flames, drove back the swarms of acromantula, and appeared in front of everyone with a cruel pleasure on his face.

The world seemed to end at this moment, the fighting stopped, and Hogwarts fell into a deathly silence.
