Chapter 499 The Dark Lord Is About to Arrive, Red Devil Mask (1/2)
Chapter 499 The Dark Lord is about to arrive, red devil mask
"Ah!" Aaron patted his forehead, "Trouble! I hate trouble."
"I don't like trouble either, but sometimes you have to make a choice, right?" Lucius said meaningfully, "I can guarantee that the Dark Lord will not hurt you, and you can even leave safely afterwards."
"Don't listen to him." Hermione shouted loudly, and then aimed the red spider lily at Lucius, "I'm not a hostage."
"Naive." Lucius sneered, "You are no different from a hostage now."
"Aaron, you don't want your girlfriend to get hurt, do you?"
"Uh... this, I have to correct it, she is not my girlfriend yet." Aaron said a little embarrassedly, "My time is very tight, and I won't consider love in the short term.
In fact, there is a certain difference between liking and having a good impression. The reason why I took such a big risk to come here is not because I like it, but because there are not many people of the opposite sex who have a good impression, at least she is the only one when I was a student."
Hermione: ? ? ?
As for the division so fine?
Everyone:......
Nima! At least consider the occasion before going off topic!
"Enough, toast and punishment." Antonin said coldly, "Malfoy, he obviously doesn't appreciate it, and you don't have to be polite to him."
Bellatrix laughed and lifted Neville up, pointing her wand at his throat, "Maybe the death of his companion can make him face reality a little."
"Avada..."
"No!"
Hermione screamed and pulled the trigger, and the blue-white lightning accompanied by thunder gushed out from the black muzzle of the gun.
"Gan!"
Lucius widened his eyes in surprise. He didn't expect Hermione to really dare to shoot. He was accidentally hit by the lightning and rolled off the platform.
Bella subconsciously turned around, blocked the wand in her hand in front of her, and used magic to form a white barrier.
The blue-white lightning and the barrier collided with each other, making a sizzling sound.
After several seconds of stalemate, Bella screamed and output magic power to offset the blue-white electric light, but she also took a few steps back, and her body was twitching due to the paralysis of the slight electric current.
The third shot took away all the little magic power in Hermione's body, and she staggered to the ground, her face pale.
"Damn mudblood." Bella came back to her senses and glared at Hermione angrily, "Crucia!"
"Expelliarmus."
Bella had just finished the spell when white light shot out from Aaron's wand and knocked her out.
"What did I tell you before?" Aaron walked up to the platform and rolled his eyes at Hermione unhappily, "After the third shot, you can only run away, but you don't seem to listen to me."
"Aren't you here?" Hermione smiled far-fetchedly.
"Yes, you will definitely be fine here." Harry said affirmatively.
"Haha! You are quite confident in me.
I have no problem protecting myself, but..." Aaron paused and pointed at Ron, Ginny and Luna who were captured by the Death Eaters, "It's hard to say about them and you."
"Kill them." Bella said viciously after getting up from the ground, "Do it now."
"Wait." Lucius immediately interrupted the three Death Eaters who were about to take action, "Don't do it yet."
"What do you mean? Are you going to protect them?"
"Of course not, but since Gaius is here, these people can't be killed for the time being." Lucius said very seriously, "Don't forget that the Dark Lord asked me to be in charge of this operation."
When the Death Eaters heard this, they immediately restrained their intention to take action.
Aaron frowned slightly, as if he had grasped something important, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.
"What did Voldemort ask you to do?"
"I can only tell you that the Dark Lord knows people's hearts, and your attitude is naturally within his expectations.
To be honest, it is easy to trick Potter out of Hogwarts, but it is very difficult to drag Gaius into the vortex." Lucius said meaningfully, and at the same time winked at Aaron without leaving a trace, his eyes stayed slightly in the direction of the door for a moment, and expressed a very obscure meaning: run.
Aaron caught this and immediately thought of something, and couldn't help but be shocked.
It turned out that he was not the only one who delayed time, but he was waiting for the reinforcements of the Order of the Phoenix, and Lucius was waiting for Voldemort himself.
"Haha! He really took great pains!" Aaron said speechlessly, "Is it that serious?"
"Who knows?" Lucius laughed easily, "After the Dark Lord was resurrected, in addition to regaining his previous power, he also deliberately allocated some energy for investigation and analysis.
Originally, the Dark Lord did not want to act so quickly, but when Potter entered the Forbidden Forest, the Dark Lord happened to read his mind and realized that this might be an opportunity.
It doesn't matter if it fails, at least we can get the prophecy ball, but if it succeeds, it will be another matter.
This is all thanks to Potter. If he hadn't insisted on coming and brought Granger by the way, the Dark Lord's plan might not have been able to proceed to this step."
"What are you talking about?" Harry asked puzzled.
Aaron rolled his eyes and was about to say something when the prophecy book suddenly said: "The Dark Lord will arrive at the Department of Mysteries in ten minutes, please be prepared, Master."
"Do you need to tell me this?
In all this time, except for irrelevant news, you haven't predicted a good thing for me."
"What is this?" Lucius asked, looking at the book in Aaron's hand with sharp eyes, and he had some guesses in his mind.
"The book of prophecies is not very reliable," Aaron explained generously. "It predicted that someone would die at the hands of Death Eaters tonight. Without this prophecy, I might not have come here.
Also the prophecy that the Dark Lord would arrive at the Department of Mysteries was a little late, if I had known earlier I wouldn't have come, and these idiots would have stopped me too. "
"But...he came here in person just for a prophecy ball?" Harry frowned, "Isn't he not planning to show up for the time being?"
"How much is the prophecy ball worth? He's here for me."
"You?" Harry was stunned for a moment, his eyes twitching in astonishment, "He really misses you!"
"Shut up if you can't speak." Aaron cursed, and then helped Hermione up, "I don't want to see Voldemort again, I have to leave."
"Do you think it's possible?" Bella laughed wildly, "This room is equipped with an anti-Apparition spell. You can't Apparition with your magic power."
"Gaius, I advise you not to act rashly." Lucius said meaningfully, "You may be able to rush out alone, and it is possible to bring someone with you, but there are six people holding you back, and three are hostages. .
The Dark Lord is just looking for you to confirm something. As long as you know the current situation, he won't do anything to you. "
This was also a hint to Aaron, he could either run alone or take Granger with him, but don't think about taking everyone with him.
In addition, the Dark Lord will not do anything to you, but the premise is to cooperate well.
"Do you think I'm stupid?" Aaron said dismissively, "I originally planned to delay the time and wait for the Order of the Phoenix to come, but now that I know he is coming, I don't dare to continue taking risks."
"If you dare to leave, I will kill them immediately." Bella warned.
"Tsk! I said I don't accept threats. They came here because of themselves.
And I have delayed enough time. I can't involve myself for them. I haven't sacrificed myself to that extent. "
"Potter is a little bitch, Longbottom, what do you think?" Bella looked at them with a faint smile, "If Gaius leaves, you three friends will have to say goodbye to you forever."
"Aaron." Harry said awkwardly, "Can you save..."
"Don't be ridiculous, I can take one person away at most.
It's not that I'm unkind, I have a clear conscience just because I can come. "
"But you saved me just now." Neville said seriously, "You won't just watch, right?"
Aaron was stunned for a moment, then nodded seriously, "Actually, I can really do it."
Neville: ...
"I have seen many separations between life and death. If I cause trouble, I will do my best to solve it, but you are in the current situation entirely because of your own doing."
"Yes, it's all my fault." Harry lowered his head bitterly, "I was the one who brought everyone into danger."
"Why did you go so early?" Aaron curled his lips disdainfully, "But now I know that it's not too late to repent..."
"Huh?" Harry was a little confused by this sudden turn of events and asked in confusion, "What do you mean?"
"You will help us, right?" Neville asked in surprise.
"I have already made my choice since I was forced to get involved. It would be too frustrating to escape in such a dejected manner."
"Then you just said you couldn't take risks?" Hermione said with some resentment.
"Maybe you didn't understand clearly, what I mean is that we can't risk delaying it.
Ten minutes, no, less than eight minutes left now.
You must leave the Department of Mysteries within seven minutes, or you will have to face the Dark Lord. "
"You're so ignorant." Bella cursed angrily, "I really don't know why the Dark Lord appreciates you. You really can't see the situation clearly at all. Barty Crouch Jr. is much smarter."
"I suggest both sides exercise restraint. We have three hostages here. You don't want them to get hurt, and we don't want the Dark Lord's plan to go astray.
Don't take action and just wait patiently. It will be beneficial to both parties. "
"Uncle Lucius, how did you have the nerve to say such shameless words?" Aaron sneered, "He has already planned on me, and you still let me sit back and wait for death?"
"What do we do?" Harry asked seriously, holding the wand tightly in his right hand.
Neville stood beside him, ready.
Hermione also wanted to join in, but before she could take out her wand, she was glared at by Aaron, "What are you trying to do? You probably don't have the strength to cast the simplest levitating spell now. It would be nice if you don't hold back." ”
"Stand next to me, otherwise I may not be able to protect you later." Aaron said, taking out a black key from his pocket and putting it in her hand, "Don't throw it away under any circumstances. If the worst happens, you can only count on it to save your life.”
"I know." Although Hermione was full of doubts, she still nodded seriously.
"You two, and you three." Aaron glanced at Harry and Neville beside him, and then at the three prisoners, Ron, Ginny, and Luna. "I will buy you some time next. You have to run as fast as you can, get out of this execution chamber, get out of the Department of Mysteries, get out of the Ministry of Magic, and get out of London."
"Hahaha..." Bella laughed crazily, "This joke is really funny. We have six elites, and each of them has magic power no worse than yours.
And you have six burdens. If you can escape with these, how can we Death Eaters survive?"
The other Death Eaters also showed a mocking smile. Do you think you are Dumbledore? What nonsense is a sixteen-year-old student talking about?
Whether it is the time, the place or the people, they are all on their side. The absolute advantage is firmly grasped. It is difficult for them to lose this day.
"I hope you can still think so later." Aaron said helplessly, and then stretched out his right hand.
The black shadow formed a vortex in the air, and a strange red evil ghost mask appeared in his hand.
Everyone present couldn't help but widen their eyes when they saw the mask appear. They were all wizards and could feel the terrifying dark magic contained in this mask.
Harry and others avoided it, fearing that they would fall into it.
The Death Eaters' eyes lit up. They were familiar with black magic and could clearly sense the great attraction of the mask to them. This was definitely the best black magic prop.
However, in fact, the power in the Nega mask had been completely devoured by Aaron, and the mask they saw was just a black magic prop made by him with a small part of his power.
Anyone who puts on this mask can summon fifty ninja soldiers for use. The upper limit is one hundred. More will consume magic power, physical strength and even life.
However, he can take back the power in the mask at any time, and he has absolute control over the ninja soldiers.
"I didn't want to use it at first. After all, it will cost more or less, but who can say that breaking the situation requires manpower!" Aaron's face showed three points of helplessness, six points of bitterness and one point of determination, and then he put the mask on his face fiercely.
Snap!
The edge of the mask's outline exuded a faint blue light and stuck tightly to his face, as if it was embedded in the skin and integrated with the flesh and blood.
"Aaron, are you okay?" Hermione asked a little uneasily.
"Okay, I'm fine, very fine." Aaron said easily, but it made them feel creepy.
Because his voice became a little thicker, and his whole face was occupied by the mask, as if he was occupied by a demon.
"Malfoy, do you know what that is?" Luke Wood, one of the escaped prisoners, asked with interest. He was a staff member of the Department of Mysteries before being imprisoned in Azkaban. He knew a little about all kinds of strange props in the magic world, but he had never heard of this kind of mask.
