Hogwarts starts with stealing power.

Chapter 534: Knock them all down

Draco was dragged to the station by Hermione, still a little confused.

After Hermione came to, she told him a lot of things, speaking so fast that he didn't even realize it.

Now, when she heard that Hermione wanted to attack the Aurors of the Ministry of Magic, she immediately objected: "No, if we disrupt their formation, there will be a gap in the defensive magic rune formation!"

Hermione retorted without thinking: "It's just that a few people are missing, of course there won't be a gap. The most important places are already guarded by special Aurors. We are just pulling out some less important people."

"The reason why I asked those people to leave is because it is more likely to cause danger if they stay in the queue than if they leave! Do you think it is as simple as just cutting off the magic power supply and not inputting energy into the magic array?

With so many Aurors here, it's only a small matter if a few of them lose their supply. The most important thing is that they will attack their companions while they are concentrating on inputting magic power! Causing a large number of casualties! This is a tragedy that we cannot recover from."

Draco thought of this and looked extremely solemn.

"But Hermione, these are just your guesses. Who can guarantee that your dreams are correct? What if your dreams are wrong?"

Hermione said very calmly: "If it is a mistake, then it is even better. It is just a few people missing, and it will not affect the defensive rune formation. But if it is true, we can save many lives by killing those people."

Seeing that she had made up her mind, Draco did not try to stop her.

They have a great advantage, which is the [Invisibility Cloak].

With the help of the invisibility cloak, they were able to weave through the crowd and get to the Aurors.

Soon, Draco and Hermione decided what to do.

They are going to use the invisibility cloak to go directly to the Aurors and knock them unconscious with a stunning spell!
This method may seem dangerous, but with the help of the invisibility cloak, it is the safest.

The spells they cast have limited power and will have no effect if fired from a greater distance.

And casting spells will leave traces.

If they were exposed too obviously, they would attract the attention of other Aurors. It would be tragic if they were mistaken for Death Eaters and dealt with by the Aurors.

Draco and Hermione, wearing invisibility cloaks, passed where the house-elves were hiding and quickly stepped into the battlefield.

Sometimes they walked to the right, sometimes to the left. Sometimes they were not in sync, and they walked left and right, almost leaving the protection of the invisibility cloak.

Suddenly, they saw Professor McGonagall!

Both of them subconsciously held their breath. Even with the invisibility cloak, they were still worried about being discovered by the professor.

But after a while, Professors McGonagall, Snape and Flitwick disappeared from the spot.

Draco and Hermione both breathed a sigh of relief.

Draco whispered, "The station is the most important battlefield. The three professors left suddenly. I don't know what important mission they are carrying out."

The station is located in a relatively remote location in Hogsmeade village, with a large mountain range behind it.

They also walked into the station and heard the howling of wolves in the distance amid the bustling crowd.

Hermione looked around intently and suddenly discovered a problem.

"Draco, where's the werewolf? The werewolf didn't show up!"

Draco subconsciously said, "Why didn't he show up? All I could hear werewolves howling!"

Hermione: "But those sounds came from the mountains in the distance. What about nearby? There was not a single werewolf or Death Eater in the station. All the Death Eaters were floating above the carriages."

When Draco was asked this question, he looked around and said in surprise, "Yeah, where are the werewolves?
Today is a full moon night, the moon is out, the werewolf has lost his mind, why hasn't he shown up? "

He heard that there were werewolves in Hogsmeade village during the day, but now at night, there was not a single one to be seen.

Hermione looked alert, but the tension in her heart eased a lot.

In her dream, werewolves were the strongest fighting force in the charge, and the noise caused by the Death Eaters was not as loud as that caused by those werewolves.

Those werewolves were fearless and killed many wizards and caused severe damage to the terrain.

When the defensive magic array was destroyed and the train suspended in the air fell to the ground, it was the werewolves who rushed up and quickly destroyed the train, resulting in no one on the train surviving!

Hermione took a deep breath. She absolutely could not let this happen.

Soon, they came to the first Death Eater.

The Death Eaters who mingle among the Aurors are very well hidden. On the surface, they don't seem to have any problems. They have glorious resumes, have participated in many missions, and have gained the trust of the Ministry of Magic.

If the Aurors were not trusted by the Ministry of Magic in this important battle, they would not be sent here.

Hermione and Draco both crouched down and nervously held out their wands.

From the outside, it looked like a piece of wand suddenly appeared on the ground, pointing at the Auror's feet.

The Stunning Spell is a very simple magic and one of the spells that beginners learn. Neither Draco nor Hermione has practiced the silent casting of the Stunning Spell.

But now they wanted to cast the stunning spell silently, and they only had to practice it secretly for a few dozen seconds before they had mastered it.

The stunning spell made no sound and its power was not strong at the beginning.

It may be effective against little wizards, but it is not enough against adult wizards.

Draco and Hermione performed several spells before the wizard suddenly felt sleepy.

After he felt sleepy, he felt more and more sleepy.

After about a minute, his consciousness faded and he finally fell unconscious.

His companions around him noticed his abnormality at the first time and quickly asked others for help.

A wizard with a red cross on his shoulder ran over, quickly asked about the situation, and first gave the fainted wizard some energy potion and antidote tablets.

The companion said bewilderedly: "I don't know what happened. He just fell down suddenly without any signs."

The Red Cross wizard asked: "What did you see? Did you notice any strange people around you?"

The companion still shook his head: "We are on a mission, so we don't have time to observe if there is anything unusual around us. I don't see anything."

He asked in return: "Doctor, has he been attacked by the Death Eaters? Is his soul okay, or is his mind traumatized?"

The Red Cross wizard shook his head solemnly: "I don't know. The Death Eaters must have used a new type of poison. I didn't find any symptoms of poisoning on him. He looks good."

The wizard had a strange expression on his face: "I thought he was just too tired, so he fell asleep, but this is impossible! Death Eaters can't be so kind!"

Other wizards also thought it was impossible and said, "Doctor, please put them in the temporary first aid station first. They must have been poisoned!"

The doctor thought so too, and he quickly took the Auror away.

Draco and Hermione stood by and observed the whole process. Draco felt relieved when he saw that the Auror's unconsciousness did not cause any impact on the defensive magic runes.

Hermione was right. These Aurors were only there to supply power to the magic rune formation, not to guard the nodes. As long as the Aurors guarding the nodes did not leave, the magic rune formation would not be destroyed.

The first Auror was taken down successfully without any setbacks. Draco and Hermione were both energized and went straight to deal with the second one.

But not all Aurors are as easy to deal with as the first one.

The second Auror was in the middle of the line. Draco and Hermione couldn't get too close and could only rely on their accuracy to cast the spell. The two of them stared at the Auror without blinking.

This time I couldn't even use the magic wand because I couldn't aim it accurately, so I could only cast the spell silently and without a wand.

But there was an invisibility cloak between them, and Draco and Hermione both discovered it. The invisibility cloak made it difficult for them to cast spells silently and without a wand, so they still had to use the invisibility spell and appear outside in person.

Draco and Hermione were very nervous. In front of these Aurors, they were not sure whether the invisibility spell could hide from them.

Hermione said, "Well, let's go behind them and cast the spell instead of in front of them. This will reduce a lot of pressure."

Draco: "But it's hard to identify it this way. What if the wrong person faints?"

Hermione thought about it and decided to cast the spell from the side. We can still recognize the profile.

They first cast an invisibility spell on themselves inside the invisibility cloak, then came to the side of the queue and quietly lifted the invisibility cloak.

They only opened half of the cloak, and the other half of the body was still inside the cloak. If they were really recognized, they could still quickly escape with the cloak.

The two of them stared intently at the wizard in the middle.

Although silent and wandless casting is very convenient, it requires a high degree of concentration, requires looking at the object or person, and the wizard needs to have a strong determination to perform it.

This also causes the person being stared to feel something.

The wizard in the middle soon felt that someone was secretly spying on him.

The hostility was so obvious that he couldn't help but look around, trying to figure out where the hostility came from.

This person's abnormal behavior also attracted the attention of his companions, who could not help but scold him in a low voice: "What are you thinking about? Don't move around, and concentrate on inputting magic power!"

The Death Eater disguised as an Auror said, "I feel like someone is watching me, and I want to find that person."

His companion said dissatisfiedly: "The battlefield is so chaotic, how are you going to find it? Besides, even if someone is not watching me, I always feel like someone is watching me!"

If Hermione and Draco heard what the wizard said, they would definitely apologize sincerely, saying that it was an accidental injury.

While they were staring at the Death Eater, they inevitably also paid some attention to his companions around him.

That was why the Auror felt like he was being watched.

The Death Eater disguised as an Auror was scolded and felt unhappy, but he had to endure it on the surface.

He has not received the organization's signal yet and cannot be exposed at this time.

He had to force himself to ignore the thorny feeling of being watched and concentrate on inputting magic power into the defensive magic array under his feet.

Gradually, he felt his consciousness becoming increasingly dizzy, as if he had a cold and a fever.

His head began to move slowly, his body drooped involuntarily, and his eyes were closed for a long time, only opening occasionally.

His companion noticed his condition again and was about to say something when the man suddenly fainted.

"Someone fainted!"

"What? Someone fainted again? Just now someone fainted in another queue. Others said this was a new type of poison invented by the Death Eaters!"

"Doctor, call the doctor quickly!"

The wizard who had just scolded someone said guiltily, "He was distracted before, looking around, saying that he felt someone was watching him. I said he was over-suspicious. I often have this feeling, but I didn't expect that he was really being watched!"

Someone else asked, "Do you need to warn the other wizards in the queue that the Death Eaters have brought a new type of poison?"

The doctor rushed over and encountered this kind of strangely unconscious wizard again.

He said: "Go and warn the other team leaders. We have already taken blood samples from all the unconscious wizards for testing. We should have a result soon."

The doctor knows that only by maintaining the current situation can such high efficiency be achieved.

If there are casualties later, they will not have the manpower to check.

Draco and Hermione stood aside and observed these wizards. They also heard the conversation between the wizards and looked very serious.

Draco said: "We have to speed up. Once all the news gets out, the Death Eaters will definitely take precautions."

Hermione also sensed the crisis and whispered, "Why don't we split up and solve them one by one quickly."

Draco denied without a second thought: "No, without the help of the invisibility cloak, we will be discovered, which is too dangerous.

If we are caught and we cast a spell on the Aurors, how will you explain it? Will they mistake us for Death Eaters?"

So they had to use invisibility cloaks, and could only act in pairs to look after each other.

Just as they were rushing to the location of the third Auror, suddenly, Lin Xia appeared in front of them!

Lin Xia used the power of Apparition to appear among a group of free wizards.

The free wizards were not very far away from the Aurors, scurrying around the battlefield.

But more wizards spontaneously formed queues, gathered the power of the attack spells, and fired them out in a concentrated manner, so as to cause greater damage to the Death Eaters.

Lin Xia would just appear in one place and stay for a while, observing the battle situation around him, and soon leave through Apparition.

But as she was about to leave, she heard the voices of Hermione and Draco.

Lin Xia pretended to turn her head and look behind her, observing the scene around her, but found nothing.

Her eyes were slightly dark. Draco and Hermione were wearing invisibility cloaks, so she didn't notice anything.

Draco: "Linxia, ​​we need your help!"

Hermione said quickly, "I had a prophetic dream. I dreamed of Death Eaters hiding among the Aurors. They would secretly tamper with the defensive runes and attack the surrounding Aurors. We have to get rid of those Death Eaters quickly!"

Lin Xia casually turned the magic wand, but set up an isolation array, and then spoke: "What are you going to do?"

Hermione quickly recounted what they had done previously.

Lin Xia shook her head: "No, there are more than a dozen Death Eaters. It will be too slow if you go after them one by one. We need a more convenient and effective method."

Draco and Hermione couldn't help but ask: "What method?"

Lin Xia smiled gently: "Death Eaters are very afraid of the Patronus Charm, so why not use the Patronus Charm to test who is the Death Eater disguised as a wizard." (End of this chapter)
