Chapter 801 The Predators (There Will Be Another Chapter Later)
Latest website: Hogwarts Castle, opposite to the tapestry on the eighth floor where the troll beat Barnabas silly.
Hermione opened the door to the Room of Requirement and walked out. A group of people who had been waiting outside for a long time immediately surrounded her.
"Stephanie said she was going to guard her things until Sean came back, and that no one would be allowed to enter the Room of Requirement during that time," Hermione explained.
Professor McGonagall pushed up her glasses. Her bun was a little crooked, which was unreasonable for someone who valued her serious image.
However, looking at the dilapidated corridors and war-torn walls around them, one can probably understand what has happened during this time.
During the time when Sean took several girls to Avalon, the returnees who had just experienced a big defeat launched an all-out attack regardless.
Hogwarts, Nurmengard, and the Ministry of Magic of various countries have all become battlefields.
A week ago, the returnees launched a very powerful attack. Without several important forces of Sean, Hogwarts was in a difficult battle.
Fortunately, Grindelwald, who had already made arrangements, finally sent a group of fresh troops over and finally saved Hogwarts.
Even so, the losses of fresh troops from various places were considerable. What's more serious is that under the long-term battle, everyone's spirit and body have almost reached the most dangerous line.
If it weren't for the attack a week ago, in which the returnees also invested a lot of combat power and were unable to launch another attack of the same level, I'm afraid Hogwarts would be on the verge of being lost.
During this rare respite, everyone at Hogwarts was certainly looking forward to the return of Sean and others.
But now, Stephanie and others have brought back important things, but Sean has not come back. It is reasonable for everyone to be anxious and worried.
After chatting for a while outside the Room of Requirement, everyone immediately dispersed into groups. They still needed to continue to coordinate their combat forces and be on guard, and the injured wizards also needed constant treatment.
The Potter family has been guarding Hogwarts for this period of time, especially Bert and his son. Their magic power is not the best, but their fighting ability is extremely good. With the help of others, the school has become important combat capability.
In this case, Daisy disappeared for more than a month, and the family naturally needed to reunite.
Harry got Daisy a glass of iced pumpkin juice. His hair was messy, just like his father, he hadn't taken care of it for a long time.
However, Lily has no intention of letting her husband and son pay attention to her image now. During this period of time, she not only has to participate in battles, but also brews various potions, putting in even more energy.
However, the beautiful lady finally breathed a sigh of relief when her daughter, whom she had been worrying about, returned safely.
Looking lovingly at her daughter sipping pumpkin juice, she stretched out her hand to tidy up her scattered hair and said softly, "I've worked hard on you during this time."
Daisy shook her head. She got into her mother's arms and rubbed her head against hers: "I actually didn't do anything... Sean is doing the dangerous things..."
When she mentioned Sean, her expression darkened a bit. Although they had just been separated for a while, the little white flower who saw the last scene felt desolate and sad.
Lily hugged her daughter a little tighter and comforted her in a low voice: "It's okay. Sean is the most outstanding boy I have ever seen. He will definitely return safely."
During this time, Harry, who seemed to have obviously matured a lot, also comforted him: "Yes, that guy Sean, everyone else is dead, but he will not die."
Lily glared at her son: "Shut up if you can't speak!"
Harry scratched his head: "Oh..."
James, who had not spoken and was silently observing his daughter's condition, squatted down. He held Daisy's hand and looked a little more serious: "Daisy, what did you encounter there? I felt a strange residual magic... …”
Hearing this, Lily and Harry immediately cast their gaze over.
Daisy hesitated for a while, and finally said hesitantly: "We encountered some dangers, and the blood curse is showing signs of recovery..."
James's pupils shrank sharply, and then he immediately stood up and said anxiously: "How could this happen... Why didn't you tell me earlier! Lily, Harry, you are here, I will look for him... look for him. "
Daisy quickly stopped her father and explained: "There were some special circumstances at the time. The resurgence of the blood curse was actually an illusion. It has been solved. There is no need to trouble others..."
James directly rejected his daughter, whom he loved so much in the past: "No, there is danger if the magic power remains."
Lily also persuaded: "It's okay, honey, your dad is just a little anxious, and he just asked you to drink more medicine."
"But brewing that kind of magic potion is very troublesome. In this situation..."
Sirius, who didn't know when he came over, looked over and said, "Your safety is important. In the worst case, James and I will go and beg him together."
Lily pursed her lips slightly. Every time this happened, she was always the most difficult one, because she didn't know whether it was better for her to show up or not. She could brew potions, but she didn't have enough ingredients, so she had to rely on the Potions Master's private stash.
Yu sighed slightly in her heart, and Lily stood up. She decided to go by herself.
Otherwise, given the relationship between these people, they will start to quarrel or even get violent when they meet again, and the relationship that has finally been eased will deteriorate again.
However, before she could speak, a Slytherin student ran over from a short distance away.
He was holding a small portable potion cabinet, and after seeing the Potter family, he ran over carefully holding the potion cabinet.
"Um, Senior Sister Potter?" He looked at Daisy.
"Ah you are?"
"This is what Professor Snape asked me to give you -" there was some indescribable expression on the Slytherin student's face, and he handed the thing to Daisy, "Professor Snape said, everything in it is all It’s an expired potion, please dispose of it.”
"He also said, let a man named James Potter, a man named Sirius Black, a man named Harry Potter, uh, let them die and get away."
James: "..."
Sirius:"……"
Harry: "...?!"
"Oh, I know, thank you." Daisy blinked and took the thing.
After the students left, Daisy opened the portable potion cabinet. It was full of potions of various colors, and they were all in two parts. The only potion that suppressed the blood curse was a single part.
"Ahem..." James coughed unnaturally.
Lily shook her head, then opened the potion and looked at her daughter: "Drink it now, and be obedient."
The potion was in front of her, so she had to drink it. Daisy obediently opened the cork of the potion bottle.
While Xiao Baihua was drinking the medicine, Sirius punched the railing next to him in a somewhat gloomy manner.
"Don't let me catch that bastard..."
When they mentioned the person who planted the blood curse on Daisy, the faces of the Potter family became ugly. Their daughter had suffered so much torture because of him.
If there is a chance...
The little white flower who was drinking medicine suddenly raised his head, his eyes widened, and he even choked.
She coughed and wiped her mouth randomly, looking at the sky: "I feel it!"
"Feel something?" Harry followed her line of sight, but saw nothing.
"Shaun! Shaun's magic!" Daisy shouted in surprise.
"Sean?" The group immediately looked around.
At this time, a figure slowly walked out from the shadows.
Sean smiled: "I didn't plan to disturb you -"
"Sean!" His words were interrupted by the girl's surprise hug, and the little white flower rushed into his arms like a swallow in the forest.
"It's okay -" Sean gently touched the girl's long hair.
James and Harry clenched their fists at the same time.
On the contrary, Lily didn't feel anything at all. She had always liked Sean very much.
"Sean, are you okay? Everyone was worried after hearing what Daisy and the others said."
"It's okay -" Sean let go of Daisy, patted the girl with slightly red eyes, and looked at the others, "I made you worry."
"Sean, what happened to you there?" Sirius, who had a quick temper, asked immediately.
Sean smiled mysteriously and didn't answer much.
Then, he turned his attention to James: "I have another gift for you -"
A body was dumped in the yard.
No, it was not a corpse. Several people noticed the other party's weak breathing.
James' eyes suddenly narrowed: "Peter..."
Sirius looked at Sean, his eyes becoming deeper: "Sean, has it been confirmed?"
Sean nodded calmly: "It has been confirmed that he did it."
James and Sirius' breathing suddenly became rapid, and their eyes began to turn slightly red.
Sean shook his head, leaving Wormtail to them.
He could have killed Wormtail outright, but ultimately decided it was better to leave the beast in the hands of the people he betrayed.
After patting Daisy on the shoulder, Sean left.
Wormtail finally opened his eyes, trembling in pain.
They were two familiar yet unfamiliar faces, the faces that frightened him the most and the ones he dared not see the most...
Wormtail's pointed nose and green bean eyes trembled.
"Hello, Peter -" James even calmed down, and his tone really sounded like he was talking to an old friend, "Long time no see."
"James...Sirius..." Peter's high-pitched voice contained a cry that was both flattering and unnoticed by himself. His eyes even glanced at the direction Sean left, "My friend …My old friends…”
"This is - Peter..." A surprised voice sounded from another direction, and Lupine walked over.
"Remus... Remus..." Beads of sweat appeared on Peter's pale and greasy face, but he had no ability to escape now, "Long time no see, long time no see... kind and generous Remus, Can you kindly take away this injured poor thing like me? I, I need treatment..."
Lupine came over and understood immediately after seeing the expressions on his friends' faces.
He pursed his lips.
Sirius's voice was stiff, with an unprecedented fierceness: "Ha, okay... okay... Peter... how dare you!"
This sentence seemed to sentence Wormtail to death, and he immediately wailed: "No, no, no! No! I am your best friend, James - Sirius... Remus!"
His limbs had turned into plasticine, and he could only support his head with the severe pain in his chest, trying to rub his once best friend.
Lupine took a step back, his eyes cold: "This is the robe Tonks gave me."
Peter Pettigrew moved his head in a panic, trying to find a kind person to forgive his sins.
He looked at Lily pitifully: "Lily, Lily, do you remember that when you and James got married, I was your best man!"
This stupid and shameful guy actually forgot that Lily was a mother.
Lily waved her wand mercilessly, and the hot whip hit Wormtail's face hard, making her tremble with rage.
However, the stupid and blind survivor is always selfish and despicable. He cried more sadly than a child in kindergarten.
"I, I have no choice!" Wormtail whimpered, "You can't imagine how powerful and terrifying that person is... I am forced to have no choice..."
He burst into tears.
Sirius couldn't hold back and gave him a hard kick.
Wormtail cried even more sadly: "I. I'm scared, Sirius. I've never been as brave as you, Remus, and James... The one who forced me to do this, I have to..."
"That's James' daughter!" Sirius roared.
Who would have thought that these words actually seemed to be a reminder to Peter Pettigrew. Unable to move his limbs, he moved like a maggot on the ground and looked fawningly at Daisy standing next to him.
The girl pursed her lips tightly, her chest kept shaking, and her eyes were red, as if they were stained with blood.
Wormtail implored shamelessly: "Daisy...beautiful girl, lovely girl...I, I once hugged you...you will definitely not let them kill me, right? Right?"
Harry pulled his sister behind him and said fiercely like a wolf that had just crawled out: "I actually called someone like you uncle... How dare you speak to my sister!"
James, who had been silent, finally stood in front of Wormtail, isolating him from his children.
"Harry, take Daisy to rest and talk to Hermione Sean and the others." He said calmly.
"Well..." Harry nodded and gently pulled his sister away from here.
James's eyes turned cold and solemn: "Okay..."
Wormtail screamed, "James, Jaime, you understand me, don't you? That's right! You'll go easy on me... Prongs!"
"For me, maybe, Wormtail."
James raised his wand impassively.
"Avada Kedavra!"
Another voice sounded at the same time, and two green lights hit the wailing Peter Pettigrew without any hindrance.
His eyes widened, and the regret in his eyes finally disappeared completely.
he died.
Another voice that issued a death curse snorted coldly, leaving only a black cloaked back.
