Chapter 701 If I Had Known Earlier, I Should Have Gone to Watch that Quidditch Match.
Hurry up... Hurry up!
Sirius kept panting, magic power running through his body, his limbs intertwined rapidly as if having a convulsion, and his figure turned into an afterimage, running towards Hogwarts Castle.
He just hoped that it was not too late to rush over now...
The noise in the castle gradually came out, and Sirius' mood became more and more urgent, because he vaguely heard a few cries and screams, and it was obvious that something had happened there!
Just as he was thinking about it, a strong sense of danger suddenly interrupted his thoughts.
Sirius felt his scalp tingle, and he looked up suddenly, seeing a huge eagle rushing towards him.
His mind hadn't yet figured out why an eagle would attack him, but his body was already moving subconsciously!
Sirius bowed his back and quickly retracted his forelimbs. With the impact of running, he accelerated and rolled away like a black furry ball. The hard ground rubbed his back painfully, but he succeeded. Escaped from the sharp claws of the giant eagle.
Sirius endured the pain, and as soon as he stood up, his body began to transform rapidly. In a moment, he returned to the wizard form. He grabbed the wand in his mouth, waved his hand and pointed at the giant eagle, shouting at the top of his lungs.
"Collapse!"
A dazzling red beam shot out from the tip of the wand.
Ivan's wings fluttered, and he quickly raised his body to avoid it. A pair of eagle eyes looked at Sirius. The magic eyes were activated instantly, and a strange sense of solidity instantly dominated Sirius's mind.
Then, Sirius felt his body being hit hard, and his whole body flew out, rolling awkwardly and hitting the tree behind.
After giving Sirius a cone, the giant eagle slowly landed on the ground and transformed into the wizard form in an instant.
Looking at Sirius who was knocked dizzy not far away, Ivan didn't dare to be negligent. He waved his wand with his right hand to conjure a big python and tied him up, and then walked forward quickly.
Sirius also calmed down now.
He witnessed the giant eagle transforming into Ivan. Although he was a little surprised as to why Ivan's Animagus form was not an owl, Sirius had no time to think about it anymore and shouted at Ivan in a hoarse voice.
"Quick...quickly inform Dumbledore and the others!"
"What?" Ivan paused as he moved forward, looking at Sirius in surprise. "Have you broken free from the Imperius Curse?"
Sirius did not answer Ivan's question immediately, but asked more eagerly. "Where's Harry? Where is Harry now?"
"Didn't Harry just be taken away by you?" Ivan frowned, having some guesses in his heart, but he was not sure yet.
"Damn it, I'm a step too late!" Sirius said through gritted teeth, looking at Ivan and explaining hurriedly. "It was Peter who did it. He used Polyjuice Potion to pretend to be me and was going to take Harry to the You-Know-Who!"
"Pettigrew?!" Ivan asked dubiously. "Then where were you during this time? How should I trust you?"
"Let go of me first. There is no time to explain. I know where they will be preparing for the ceremony. It might be too late to rush over now. I will tell you on the way!" Sirius said anxiously.
Ivan hesitated for a moment. He couldn't completely trust Sirius because of his words. It was also possible that Sirius sent Harry away and then came back to fool him.
However, out of confidence in his own strength and the feedback he got from running Legilimency, Ivan still waved his wand to untie the restraints. Anyway, Sirius was not his opponent, and he was not worried about what the other party would do.
Sirius hurriedly climbed up from the ground, as if he had been hit by a slowing spell. His body was so stiff that he almost fell to the ground again.
"Drink this!" Ivan thought for a moment, took out a bottle of magic potion from his pocket and threw it to Sirius, so that he could relieve the negative effects of the magic eye.
If what the other party said was true, then he might have to face Voldemort directly. If he remained in this state, he would probably die.
Sirius took the potion, opened it and drank it. This was not the first time he had been tricked, so of course he knew the effect of this potion.
After drinking all the potion, Sirius didn't waste a moment, stepped forward, grabbed Ivan's wrist and ran in the direction he came from. "Let's go! Let's go to Hogsmeade quickly. We can't apparate here!"
"Can you tell me what's going on now?" Ivan said as he ran after Sirius.
"Do you still remember the World Quidditch Tournament held during last summer vacation?" Sirius asked.
Ivan nodded. "Of course I remember, you asked Professor Dumbledore to bring me the tickets, but I was busy at the time and couldn't spare the time..."
"Yes, it's a pity that you didn't come, but I still invited Harry and the others to watch the game together." Sirius said hastily, and after a pause, he continued.
"Everything was normal at first, but after we returned to the tent after watching the game, a riot suddenly broke out outside. A large group of wizards with masks on their faces and hoods on their heads set fire to the camp wantonly, torturing those nearby. The Muggles encamped..."
"I've read all of this in the Daily Prophet, you don't need to introduce it to me again..." Ivan said impatiently, and then suddenly spoke as if he remembered something. "I once heard Harry say that you were causing trouble with those Death Eaters?"
"No, to be precise, I saw Peter there!" Sirius' expression became serious.
Ivan's pupils narrowed and he looked at Sirius in surprise.
"He was wearing a long robe and walked sneakily through the crowd. Although it was very dark and I couldn't see his face clearly, I was so familiar with him that I recognized him quickly!" Sirius He spoke very quickly, "I suspected that this commotion was related to him, so I told Harry to go find Arthur and the others, and I chased after them!"
"You are too reckless, he is obviously trying to lure you there on purpose!" Ivan said angrily.
"You're right, but I didn't think much about it at that time. I just knew that I couldn't miss this opportunity to catch Peter!" Sirius responded awkwardly.
He originally thought that Peter was just a lost dog who would not be able to escape when he saw him. At most, he was lurking in the dark and plotting and inciting others to cause destruction. He never thought that this guy would have the courage to lead him there...
