Hogwarts starts with stealing power.

Chapter 518 People with Ulterior Motives

After confirming the identity of the old wizard, Harry and Ron no longer hesitated and discussed an action plan with the old wizard.

They didn't dare tell the old wizard that the reason they could observe so carefully was because of the help of the invisibility cloak.

Lin Xia and Hermione had repeatedly warned them not to reveal the existence of the invisibility cloak to outsiders, fearing that others might have ulterior motives and want to steal this artifact, which was most likely the legendary Deathly Hallows.

So they only told the old wizard vaguely: "We found this Death Eater through a relatively high rooftop. He stood in the middle of the intersection, waiting for an opportunity to strike."

Ron added: "Several wizards have been killed, so we thought of putting up a wooden sign at the entrance to the alley."

Cassio smiled and said, "We are very smart. We did not confront this Death Eater head-on. Given the insidiousness and cunningness of the Death Eaters, I am afraid that if your Patronus Charm fails to work, you will be attacked by the Death Eaters in return."

There was no sign of Cassio's movements.

He simply waved his wand silently, and his figure instantly disappeared in front of them.

Ron and Harry both recognized it as Apparition.

At this moment, they felt more and more that the effect of "Apparition" was very powerful. If they could also use Apparition skillfully in battle, their mobility would be greatly improved.

Not only do you not have to walk to get here, you can also use Apparition to erect the wooden sign instead of walking.

If worst comes to worst, you can use Apparition to escape danger.

When the Death Eaters spotted them, they escaped by Apparating.

After just a few seconds, Cassio reappeared in front of them.

"I stood on a high place and observed. As you guessed, this Death Eater's ability is indeed not that strong, so he resorted to the ambush method.

But he was in a very good position, and as soon as we appeared at the intersection, we would be in his sight.”

"However," Cassio changed the subject, "He only has one pair of eyes. If we appear at several intersections at the same time, he will hesitate about which one to deal with."

"What do you think?" Harry asked.

Cassio cast a deep gaze upon them and said calmly, “I wonder if you are willing to take the risk with me. We will appear at the intersection together.

If you trust me, leave the attack to me. I will use offensive magic on the Death Eaters before they attack you.

All you need to do is to use the Patronus Charm to protect yourself as soon as possible, can you do it?"

Harry and Ron looked at each other and nodded, "We can do it!"

Cassio looked at Harry deeply.

He didn't pay much attention to Ron, and spent most of his time observing Harry, with a hint of admiration in his eyes.

As expected, he was the child who could destroy the Dark Lord shortly after he was born.

If the Dark Lord was eliminated in the first place, there must have been some other tricks involved.

Now that Harry is able to use the Patronus Charm at such a young age, it is enough to prove that he has a strong magical talent.

When Cassio thought of this, his old and dead heart became slightly excited, and his old and decayed body trembled slightly.

What a perfect person...

What a perfect body...

This is the best carrier, the perfect carrier. Merlin heard his request and gave him such a perfect body...

They headed to different alley entrances, decided to let the old wizard give the orders when the time came, and then walked in together.

All Ron and Harry had to do was prepare the Patronus Charm as they walked.

After seeing the face of the Death Eater, he quickly cast the Patronus Charm!

Before Ron and Harry separated, they were still discussing the old wizard.

Ron is an impulsive person, but he becomes a little timid after being impulsive.

He couldn't help but worry, "Harry, although the old wizard seems confident, he is old after all. Is his ability still that strong? Do we really have to fight the Death Eaters?

Our original intention was to save the wizards who fell into the trap, not to fight against the Death Eaters."

Harry said, "Ron, we have already promised the old wizard, do you want to back out?"

Ron straightened his chest and shook his head repeatedly: "No, I just raised some small doubts!"

Harry: "I believe in the professors at Durmstrang. It is said that this school also teaches students the dark arts and has strong combat capabilities. Moreover, I did not sense any malice from the old wizard. He really wants to help us.

In addition, you and I can both feel that this old wizard is very powerful, and the magic factor flowing in him is very huge, which is not the appearance of a wizard whose magic power has collapsed. "

"I know, well, I just..." Ron hesitated.

But they had already reached their respective intersections, and Harry repeatedly said to Ron: "Ron, we have the Patronus Charm, the Death Eaters can't hurt us!"

The two separated.

Harry had just arrived at the designated intersection when the voice of the old wizard Cassio rang in his mind.

"Prepare!"

Harry took a deep breath, his hand tightening on his wand.

After a few seconds, Cassio's voice sounded in his mind again - "Now, go forward and start mobilizing the power of the Patronus Charm!"

The three wizards set out together. The old wizard Cassio took the lead and walked much faster than the two young wizards.

Ten seconds later, he was the first to come into the Death Eaters' sight.

Without thinking, the Death Eater waved his wand in a crisp and clear motion: "Avada Kedavra!"

The first thing to do is the Unforgivable Curse, which cannot be offset by other spells, but the wizard can dodge it.

Of course, whether or not one can dodge it depends on the user's ability.

If the user is not that powerful, the Unforgivable Curses can be ignored and evaded.

But if the user is very powerful, the Unforgivable Curse will basically entangle the wizard, and unless the energy of the spell is exhausted, there will be no escape.

The old wizard Cassio dodged the Unforgivable Curse, and while dodging, he did not forget to cast attack spells to interfere, while getting closer and closer to the Death Eaters.

The Death Eater was stunned. He had never encountered such a situation before.

But he reacted quickly and engaged in a fierce battle with the old wizard.

The sound of fighting came from the front, which made Harry speed up his pace.

Before Ron could see the battlefield, Harry was there, with the Patronus Charm ready in his hand.

The moment he saw the Death Eater, Harry swung his wand at him: "Expecto Patronus!"

A silver-white light flashed and appeared. Harry's Patronus Charm made a much louder noise than Lin Xia's, and the light shone throughout the alley. I don't know if it was because he had used the Patronus Charm frequently in recent days, but the light ball Harry emitted this time actually had some faint outlines.

But before this outline could change into a clear shape, it was launched out.

The Death Eater was busy dealing with Cassio's attack, but felt the danger coming from behind, so he subconsciously swung his wand backwards and cast a defensive spell.

When Harry appeared, he saw him out of the corner of his eye and found that he was a little wizard, so he didn't care.

The Death Eaters could never have imagined that what Harry cast was the Patronus Charm!
This spell could not be offset by simple defensive magic. On the contrary, due to the special properties of the Patronus Charm, it could bypass this defensive magic. The pure white light fell behind the Death Eater.

The Death Eaters instantly felt as if thousands of arrows were piercing their hearts!
The intense pain stimulated his nerves, and he was distracted by the intense battle with Cassio and was injured by the attack magic sent by Cassio.

"what!"

The Death Eater let out another horrific scream.

Just then, Ron also arrived at the intersection at his pace.

He was far more nervous than Harry, but his understanding of the Patronus Charm was not weak, and a white light had already appeared on the tip of his wand, steadily gathering power.

When he saw the Death Eater and found that he had no time to look at him, Ron relaxed a little and focused his attention on the Death Eater -

"Call the gods to protect you!"

Ron pointed his wand at the Death Eater, and the power that had been gathering at the tip of the wand poured out in the direction it was pointed.

The Patronus Charm cast by Ron was still just a ball of warm light. Although its outline had not yet appeared, the total amount of light was only slightly less than that of Harry.

The light quickly hit the Death Eater, burning his skin, and the black bugs in his body were corroded by the power of light.

The Death Eater felt like his body was on fire!

It hurts, it hurts too much!
Not only the body was burned, but also the spirit was scorched, and the soul was also whipped by the power of glory.

In this situation, he had no time to continue fighting. He kept waving his wand and casting all kinds of magic related to springs and ice on himself.

He wanted to extinguish the fire burning in his body and stop the pain in his soul.

Cassio stopped and looked at the Death Eater for a while, as if he was studying something.

Ron on the other side was a little flustered, worried that the Death Eater would suddenly go crazy and rush towards him, so he was secretly mobilizing the strength in his body, and soon a white light rose from the tip of the wand again.

He quietly continued to cast the Patronus Charm while also using the Sense Charm to amplify his vision and observe the Death Eater.

In his nervousness, he was not only looking at the Death Eaters, but also at Cassio.

Originally, Ron wanted to see if Cassio was doing his best to deal with the Death Eaters, but when he saw him, he found that Cassio's expression was a little strange.

He didn't seem nervous, nor did he seem panicky. He just stood there steadily with an expression he couldn't understand, as if he was admiring the Death Eater's final madness.

Ron couldn't help but frown.

This expression made him feel indescribably uncomfortable.

Feeling that it was about time, Cassio finally raised his wand again and cast the last spell at the Death Eaters - "Flame"!
This spell was different from the ordinary "Raging Fire" and looked much more powerful. The flames turned into a huge black snake, tightly wrapping around the Death Eater.

The Death Eater didn't even utter a scream. When the black snake dissipated and the flames disappeared, the Death Eater was burned to ashes.

Harry said excitedly, "We succeeded in dealing with the Death Eaters!"

Cassio then invited Harry: "I just stood on a high place and observed, and found that in addition to the Death Eaters here, small battles broke out in other places, and there should be Death Eaters as well.

You know the Patronus Charm, which is a powerful weapon against Death Eaters. Do you want to cooperate with me?
I will cover your whereabouts and fight the Death Eaters head-on, while you use the Patronus Charm in secret, and together we can inflict heavy damage on the Death Eaters."

Harry was about to agree, but Ron said without thinking, "No!"

Harry looked at Ron suspiciously.

Ron said, "We are just students. Fighting the Death Eaters is only a last resort. For safety reasons, we will not fight the Death Eaters head-on, even with your help."

"But..." Harry wanted to say something else.

Ron looked at him and whispered, "Harry, think about Lin Xia and Hermione. Do you want to be nagged by Hermione when you return to school?"

Harry was silent for a moment.

If Hermione knew they were going to confront the Death Eaters head-on, she would definitely not agree, but Harry thought, as long as they didn't tell Hermione it would be fine.

But Ron had already pulled his hand and quickly left the place, and Harry could only shake his head apologetically at Cassio.

Ron pulled Harry and ran a long way. When they realized they couldn't run any further, they stopped, panting.

Harry asked in confusion: "Ron, why are you running so fast?"

Ron said, "Harry, when we were killing the Death Eaters just now, I was observing Cassio's expression, and I thought his smile was wrong.

No matter how much we hate Death Eaters, we can't laugh when we see a human wizard being tortured like this. But Cassio laughed, and I think there's something wrong with him."

Harry frowned, "Impossible, you must have seen it wrong."

Ron: “Maybe, anyway, his expression is different from that of ordinary wizards, I don’t recommend getting too close to him.

And have you forgotten? We have an invisibility cloak. As long as we don't reveal ourselves, the Death Eaters can't find us. If we work together with Cassio, how do we explain the invisibility cloak? "

Harry was silent.

Ron continued, "You saw how much damage the Patronus Charm did to the Death Eaters just now. I think the two of us are enough to deal with the Death Eaters. We don't need Cassio.

Didn't Lin Xia say that we have always lacked practical experience? Why don't we practice on the Death Eaters?"

When Ron said this, he felt that his thoughts were a little crazy.

Why practice on Death Eaters when there are so many people to practice on?
But Ron knew that Harry didn't care about these Death Eaters from the bottom of his heart, so he said that.

This reason barely convinced Harry, and he said, "Let's go somewhere else and observe to see which wizard needs help."

Harry now thought of Apparition again, and said enviously, "It would be great if we could Apparite. We could go to the rooftop and observe at any time."

While Harry and Ron were taking action, Lin Xia had already arrived near the second target.

Once the Death Eaters set up a hunting scene, they generally do not leave easily.

So Lin Xia was not worried that they had changed the venue.

Truly powerful Death Eaters will run around everywhere, only the weak ones need a fixed location. If these Death Eaters are powerful, they will not deliberately set traps.

She used Apparition to move to an attic and observed the Death Eaters hiding opposite through the attic window.

The Death Eater pretended to fall to the ground covered in blood, crying and calling for help from passing wizards in a weak and pitiful manner.

He looks very pitiful, but he is actually using the Disillusionment Spell. (End of this chapter)
