"...Let me see if you need help here."

Gore, who just got out from behind the tree, said dully, and took another two steps to this side.

Bellatrix waved her hands impatiently and said, "No need, just go back and help Crabbe and the others. I don't need you to get involved here."

To deal with a little Auror girl who just officially took office, how could she, Bellatrix, need help from others. After glaring at the tall and burly Goyle, she continued to chase after the bushes where Tonks was fleeing.

But she didn't expect that as soon as she turned around, she caught a glimpse of a fleeting red light from the corner of her eye.

"Dizzy."

"Varied"

Bellatrix's reaction was not slow either, and she immediately wanted to dodge to the side, but after all, there was still no time. As soon as she uttered half a word, she felt a sudden force from her lower back, and then she fell straight to the ground.

Only then did "Gol" behind her chuckle, his figure and face changed, and he became Tonks again.

In fact, if it weren't for the complex environment here and the open space without terrain cover, Tonks, who was not good at frontal combat, would have been beaten at all.

But once there is an obstacle blocking the line of sight, Tonks' advantage will really be brought into play.

"This big guy is really not easy to change, and he has too much meat..." Tonks complained, and at the same time applied a full-body binding spell to Bellatrix who was lying on the ground.

But at the moment when she was about to get him away, a voice of chanting a spell quietly sounded from the woods beside her, and then another flash of fire flashed by.

She quickly rolled again, no longer caring about the Bellatrix she had brought down, and moved quickly in the forest.

There is such a disadvantage in fighting in the woods. For those who are inexperienced, it is difficult to find the exact location of the attacker in the dense woods.

Although I'm a bit unwilling, but if the brain is stuck there, and the situation where the enemy is in the dark and we can't change it, then it will be too passive.

Auror training was not for nothing, and Tonks understood the dangers involved.

However, not to mention that Tonks was circling in the forest trying to get rid of the attackers, and Lupine was struggling to help her because of the enemy's entanglement...

At this time on the avenue, the main combat forces of the two sides are fighting fiercely!

In fact, it is said to be the main combat force, but it does not mean that the main members of the Death Eaters are here. This time Voldemort assigned people, but most of them were peripheral members who were not very strong.

The Order of the Phoenix had elite Auror Kingsley on the field, and Mundungus, Dedalus and others to support them, but after all, they still couldn't beat the Death Eaters with a larger number of people.

Fortunately, their main purpose is to hold each other down as much as possible, and there is no need to force the other party to make any progress. Therefore, even if it is fighting and retreating, as long as there is no casualty, it will be considered a profit if it is delayed for a while.

It has to be said that Kingsley is worthy of being one of the main forces of the Order of the Phoenix, and he fights unambiguously.

He built several earthen walls with magic spells, and kept interfering with the opponent's progress. Even though he looked a little embarrassed, he was able to hold down several ordinary Death Eaters by himself, which was indeed extraordinary.

Between the improvised barriers on the avenue, the beams of various colors of the spell kept intersecting back and forth, and stone chips and dirt clods splashed high and then fell scattered, hitting people's faces with pain .

Occasionally, someone on the Death Eater side was hit by a curse, or lay or lay on the ground, and no one cared about it. The indifference of the villain's humanity was fully revealed.

But even though the number of people has been reduced several times, few people flee into the woods. Their individual strength is not strong. If they go to the forest, once they are dispersed, their advantages will disappear. They are not all fools.

It's still a moonless night,

And their task is to make a tentative attack, and fighting on the avenue is their first choice.

At least, that's what Voldemort ordered.

The night wind was still lightly blowing the leaves, creating layers of green waves, but the sounds of various spells and intermittent shouts completely covered up the rustling among the tree crowns.

In today's night, which was not peaceful in the first place, the sounds of various battles made it even more restless and restless.

Voldemort hadn't appeared yet, and only a few core members of the Death Eaters had come. Who would know where they were waiting for their chance to strike?

"Fuchsia!"

Kingsley released another spell, then he dodged behind the obstacle, and exhaled lightly.

He didn't know when the reinforcements on their side would arrive?

...

Besides, in the open space in front of Hogwarts Castle, Mad-Eye Moody had already returned to his original appearance. But right now, he was running after those two students who looked like students!

"Armor Guard"

"Disarm you!"

Since the two guys sneaked out of the Quidditch pitch and tried to leave the range of Hogwarts, Moody had already followed them.

When Moody showed up, one of them had already collapsed inadvertently.

The other guy immediately wanted to put an armor spell on himself for self-defense, but he didn't expect Moody's spell to come very quickly. He was caught off guard by Moody before he finished reading the spell.

Although he was not deprived of his wand, with such a flash, he immediately fell into a disadvantage.

Old Moody's true strength seemed to be gradually revealed, which proved that his appearance usually caused panic among the Death Eaters, and this time was no exception.

"There are many obstacles."

No sooner had Moody cast the last spell than the next one followed.

The other party was only focused on avoiding it just now, but before he could stand still, he immediately realized that he seemed to have fallen into the sticky glue, and his movements immediately became sluggish.

"Dizzy."

When Moody's third spell hit the opponent's forehead, the man was caught in the effect of the blocking spell and completely lost the ability to resist.

The battle was unusually fast, with old Moody one against two. Although one of the results was a sneak attack, it was not difficult to see that the veteran Auror was still as brave as before.

After regaining Ravenclaw's golden crown, Moody rushed towards the back door without stopping. There was a lake there. Generally speaking, it was not a suitable attack route, but it had to be guarded against.

As for the two Death Eaters who were lurking in the school to snatch the golden crown, after they tipped off, they are now worthless. Moody just added an extra control spell, and temporarily put them in the same invisible figure in a nearby corner.

...

If we talk about Voldemort's plan this time, the arrangement is actually quite detailed.

Whether it is an internal and external response to capture Ravenclaw's golden crown, or an all-round tentative attack, it is enough to keep Hogwarts' existing defense forces busy.

Even with Snape as a double agent, as long as he can't reveal his identity for a day, he can't fully disclose the news from Voldemort to Dumbledore.

But now that Maca is also messing with Voldemort, the situation is quite different.

Even if Snape conveyed all the information to Dumbledore and used the information to perfectly deploy defenses, Snape could push all the information leaks to Maca.

Snape was Dumbledore's important nail on Voldemort's side. As long as he was still there, the Order of the Phoenix would never become a blind man with nothing to spare.

Of course Dumbledore understood these principles very well, and now, although he went to the school gate, he did not immediately help the members of the Order of the Phoenix.

One was because he found that there was not much danger on their side, and the other was because Voldemort was behind him.

His maximum combat power should be used to suppress the formation.

Because no one knows whether Voldemort, who has not appeared yet, will appear tonight? If he showed up in person, where would he appear?

Dumbledore waited quietly while hiding in the dark and watching the members of the Order of the Phoenix.

As the night deepened, the moonlight gradually became thicker, and there seemed to be few clouds in the night sky. It must be another clear day tomorrow.

But before dawn, the threat posed by Voldemort is the biggest difficulty to get through tonight.

Just as the little wizards were being taken to the castle auditorium by the professor, resting restlessly on the floor, there seemed to be a few creepy eyes flashing in the depths of the Forbidden Forest.

...

Compared with the chaos in Hogwarts Castle, at this moment, far under the mountains of Albania, Maca was squatting on the ground and taking research notes.

And the object of his research is naturally the huge bewitching monument in front of him.

Because there is a lot of information in the "Book of Sin", it is a little easier for him to study now than he imagined.

But no matter what, it is impossible to study and understand this mysterious ancient magic item in a short time.

Maca is also very aware of this, and there is not much time left for him.

He hurriedly wrote in his notes, his handwriting seemed a bit messy, but he didn't have time to care about those.

The content he is writing now cannot be automatically written by magic spells. Many things related to the rules need to be written down by him in magic script. Handwriting is one of the indispensable steps in this research.

After a while, he put the quill pen into the ink bottle, and rubbed his wrist to relax the muscles that were slightly stiff due to long-term writing.

"... Calculate the time, I guess Hogwarts has almost started?"

He took out the magic pocket watch, opened the watch cover to check the time, then stuffed it back into the pocket of his shirt vest, and then stretched vigorously.

"No, I have to speed up a bit..." He pondered for a while, then poured himself a whole bottle of refreshing potion, and then immediately put himself into the research again.

In front of him, next to the base of the Bewitching Monument, a rune array was faintly glowing with a faint blue light, adding a bit of mystery to the main tomb.
