Hogwarts starts with stealing power.

The moment the people from Beauxbatons and Durmstrang appeared, all the wizards' eyes lit up and a glimmer of hope flashed through their hearts.

The number of people sent by the two major academies was not large, but definitely not small. Twenty wizards came from each academy, adding up to a total of forty newly arrived wizards.

And this is without any consumption. The power that a fully armed wizard can exert is no weaker than the power of a wizard relying on defensive magic array to fight against the complete form of the evil god.

Bellatrix has long been completely controlled by the will of the evil god. Once she decides to do something, she will launch an attack in a certain direction!
Therefore, the arrival of people from the two major academies did not affect Bellatrix's actions, and she still attacked Lin Xia and others.

This gave the wizards from the two academies time to make arrangements.

After the wizards from the two academies arrived, Lin Xia just took a look and focused all his attention on the attack in front of him.

She felt that the defensive magic array in front of her was shaking more and more violently, and seemed to be on the verge of breaking.

However, the magic array that only provided defense had a durability far beyond Lin Xia's expectations.

Every time Lin Xia felt that the magic array would be broken in the next second, she still held on tenaciously.

Facing the defensive ability of such a pure defensive magic rune array directly, Lin Xia couldn't help but have a flash of inspiration in her mind, as if she had grasped something.

However, the situation at the scene was too urgent, so I could only suppress some unformed ideas in my mind and think about them carefully later.

Until the wizards from the two academies made their arrangements and launched an attack on Bellatrix, the magic array where Lin Xia was located remained intact.

The two major academies attracted the attention of the complete evil god with just one attack.

They came prepared. Whether it was the defensive or offensive magic rune formations, or the wizard robes that seemed to have academic style, they all contained secrets to target the complete form of the evil god!
The magic array was set up specifically to target evil gods, and the clothes, accessories, and wands they wore were all soaked in the Ministry of Magic's unique product, "Holy Water of Glory"!
The production method of [Holy Water of Glory] has always been controlled by the Ministry of Magic. Only a few people know the formula. It can play a big role in eliminating things related to evil gods and can greatly restrain evil gods.

The magic world and the evil god world have been fighting for so long that they know each other's methods and it is impossible for them not to target each other.

So Lin Xia saw the following scene:
As soon as Bellatrix approached the wizards from the two academies, before she took any action, she took the lead in triggering the attack magic array and was hit by a strong wave of magical shock.

But the magic shock wave could not hinder His movements. He rushed around in the shock wave, and all attacks just passed by Him. It seemed as if the attacking magic was deliberately letting Him go and avoiding Bella.

However, after a while, wizards from the two academies waved their wands and cast fire magic at Bellatrix.

Lin Xia's pupils widened. No matter the movements made by these wizards or the spells they uttered, they were no different from the "Burning Flames" she had learned.

But the flames they released had a transparent inner flame and only the outer flame was reddish orange, which made the flame look a bit like a layer had been dug out of the middle core.

However, before Bella came into contact with the flames, she suddenly roared towards the sky, with a hissing sound on her mouth, as if she saw something that was very threatening to her!
"Glorious fire?" Some wizards couldn't help but exclaimed.

"It takes at least a month to reach this state. Even with special methods, it would take at least half a month. Did they prepare in advance? Did the Ministry of Magic already know that the Death Eaters' target was Hogsmeade?"

"Or were they originally going to deal with a certain advanced infected body, but they didn't deal with it yet, so they used it here first?"

"Glorious fire?"

Lin Xia also felt that this flame was unusual, but she didn't know what the other wizards were marveling at.

From what we can hear in their words, it seems that this kind of fire can be artificially created in advance, but it takes a long time.

A hint of understanding flashed across Lin Xia's eyes. If that was the case, then it was correct.

After all, from her perspective, the magic world and the evil world are fighting against each other, and the magic world seems to always be at a disadvantage.

The magical world is like a balloon with a hole in it. Evil gods will always find a gap to get in, greatly affecting the lives of the people in the magical world.

Even in Hogwarts, the safest castle in the UK, young wizards are not allowed to leave the castle at night, for fear that they might encounter infected bodies that sneak in through the cracks.

But if the magical world is really at a disadvantage in the confrontation, then the wizarding world will not hide the facts of the evil world from ordinary wizards.

Some wizards don't know until they die that there is another world coveting the power of magic and wanting to devour the wizarding world.

It seems that the wizarding world has found a countermeasure to fight against the evil world, but the method will take a long time and is not immediate.

Lin Xia stared at the brilliant fire in the air, a bright light flashing in her eyes.

If she could improve the method of making the Radiant Flame, would it give the wizarding world a better chance of winning the confrontation?
In the air, Bellatrix took a few steps back and suddenly flew somewhere else.

His movements were very fast, leaving a trace of afterimage between advance and retreat, and the wizard's naked eyes could not keep up with his movements.

But the glorious fire following behind Him moved even faster!

The glorious fire seemed to have recognized him. No matter where he hid, the glorious fire would follow him closely, and the distance between him and him was getting closer and closer every time.

Lin Xia heard a stern shout: "Everyone cheer up and quickly input magic power into the defensive magic array.

I feel like the evil god has fully realized his intention to come to our side and use the power of our magic array to fight against the radiant fire. We must not let him succeed!"

As soon as they finished speaking, everyone worked together to input magic power into the defensive magic array.

The transparent defensive film that wrapped them emitted a silvery glow due to the input of magic power, and then quickly faded away.

Lin Xia curiously asked the experienced old wizard: "This is the first time I have seen a flame like 'Glorious Fire'. Is it very harmful to evil gods and infected bodies?"

The magic array was recharged and had sufficient defensive energy, which relieved the wizard of a heavy burden and made him feel a little more relaxed.

Someone answered Lin Xia's question immediately.

“The Radiant Flame is a weakened version of the Patronus Charm, and can exert half the power of the Patronus Charm.

Although this sounds weak, you have to know that the power of each wizard's Patronus Charm is different, and the standard set by the Ministry of Magic is based on the Patronus Charm cast by 'excellent wizards'. "

Seeing that Lin Xia was still curious, the wizard smiled and continued speaking with a proud tone.

“Even the Ministry of Magic recognizes them as excellent wizards. These people are definitely geniuses among geniuses. How can the Patronus Charm cast by a genius be compared with that of an ordinary genius?

Therefore, the power of the Radiant Flame is actually comparable to the Patronus Charm cast by an ordinary genius wizard." The old wizard explained with a hint of pride.

Lin Xia couldn't stop nodding. She said that the Patronus Charm was so difficult to learn, but it was so effective in restraining the power of the evil god. In order to be able to fight the evil god more effectively, the Ministry of Magic had to study it in depth.

It turns out that the evil gods and infected bodies are waiting here.

The old wizard sighed: "Although the Radiant Fire is very good, the conditions for its use are harsh. It needs to be cultivated through specific steps for a month before it can be produced in the body. During this period, no magic can be used.

After the Radiant Fire is in the body, the flame can only stay for a week. If you want the flame to stay longer, then the cultivation time will be extended accordingly. In addition, the longer the cultivation, the different the form of the flame.

This form is only the lowest standard of cultivation. I have seen flames that are only covered with a thin layer of flames on the outside, and are almost entirely transparent brilliant flames. This kind of flame is more lethal. "

Lin Xia asked: "Will the energy of the cultivated Radiant Fire be larger or smaller depending on the wizard's magical aptitude and magic power?"

The old wizard shook his head. "No, this kind of flame cultivated according to a specific process has a fixed energy. If you want the flame to be more powerful, you can only cultivate it for a longer time."

Lin Xia said hesitantly: "Looking at it this way, there are still many restrictions. Moreover, you can't use magic during the training period, which is too harsh."

Especially for wizards who have lived in the magical world since childhood, using magic in life is almost an instinct engraved in their bones.

The process of cultivating the Fire of Glory is a process of fighting against one's own instincts.

The old wizard nodded and said, "Yes, if the conditions were not too harsh, the Ministry of Magic would have implemented this training method long ago.

Unfortunately, only the Auror Corps uses this method at present. Others will only start to cultivate the Radiant Flame if they have already clearly identified where the advanced infected bodies or the complete experience of the evil gods have descended."

Another wizard added: “But most of the time it’s about training but not catching up with the opportunity.

After all, the arrival of advanced infected bodies and the complete evil god does not take a long time. After the Ministry of Magic captures the energy fluctuations, it only takes three or four days for them to arrive.

At that time, the radiant fire had just taken shape in the wizard's body, and there was no chance to destroy them."

An old wizard thought of a joke he had gotten from a good friend and said jokingly:

“I heard that the Ministry of Magic cultivates legions of people with the Radiant Fire in their bodies, and they are all specially cultivated in the Muggle world, because there is no magic there, and wizards can survive even without magic.

At that time, I thought about getting the method to cultivate the Radiant Fire, and then find a Muggle land isolated from the world and cultivate the Radiant Fire in secret."

Another old wizard asked: "Since you have thought of it, why don't you do it?"

The man responded, "How do you know I haven't tried it?"

Without waiting for anyone to reply, the old wizard continued, "I really tried, but I simply could not overcome my instinct to use magic. Every time I was halfway through training, I would subconsciously use a life magic and all my efforts would be wasted.

After failing several times, I received a warning from the Ministry of Magic. They detected that I frequently used magic in Muggle territory and had caused a certain impact on the surrounding area. That’s why I gave up. ”

Other wizards sighed: "It is really difficult to cultivate the Brilliant Fire!"

Lin Xia thought about it and decided that from the perspective of overcoming instincts, the difficulty of training would be only slightly less than that of Animagus.

But if the Aurors chosen by the Ministry of Magic are wizards who have lived in the Muggle world since childhood, the difficulty will be much lower.

As they talked, Bellatrix dodged in the air faster and faster.

The Ministry of Magic uses a special cultivation method to cultivate this kind of flame that is specifically targeted at the evil god's infected bodies, and it has great lethality.

Moreover, those forty wizards were all experts, which was equivalent to forty people using the Patronus Charm together.

This is much more powerful than the patronus spell cast by Lin Xia and the dozen or so people.

Even Bella didn't want to face this power directly, and tried to consume the power of the "Fire of Glory" by constantly dodging.

At first, they lost sight of Him for just a second or two.

But later on, I couldn’t see Him for five or six seconds.

All the wizards became alert, fearing that Bellatrix would suddenly appear in front of them and attack them.

"boom!!"

Lin Xia felt a blurry black shadow flash past his eyes. The next second, the defensive magic array that enveloped them received a powerful impact. The aftermath of the shock wave caused the wizards' bodies to tremble.

Everyone felt that the dust had settled.

They knew that this evil god was fully capable of attacking them, trying to escape the brilliant fire that was chasing after him!

However, because the defensive magic rune formation had already been charged once by them, Bellatrix's previous continuous attacks had not been able to destroy this defensive magic rune formation that was as solid as a tortoise shell. Naturally, this temporary sudden attack did not destroy it either.

However, Bella's intention was not to destroy it.

He didn't even consider the consequences when he attacked, and instantly flashed to look somewhere else, trying to attract the brilliant fire to the defensive magic array he had crashed into, so that the wizards would kill each other.

Lin Xia noticed this scene, his eyes full of thought.

She felt that although the will of the complete evil god had been completely replaced by the evil god, it still retained a certain ability to think.

This kind of thinking ability may not be recognized by wizards, but it is in line with the ideas of evil gods.

When faced with danger, even the weakest prey will burst out with unparalleled potential and try to escape.

When Bella faced the Fire of Glory, she showed corresponding "crisis thinking".

Lin Xia's heart sank slightly, this meant that the complete evil god was not only stronger than the advanced infected body in terms of power, but also had far superior thinking when it came to handling crises.

Fortunately, the glorious fire seemed to be able to accurately identify evil gods and ordinary wizards. The next moment when the flame was about to touch the defensive magic array, the glorious fire instantly disappeared from the spot.

Lin Xia looked up in the direction of Bella. In the eyes of other wizards, they couldn't find where Bella was, but after her eyes were strengthened by the supersensory spell, she was able to capture a trace of afterimage of Bella's quick movements and quickly locked onto His position.

The brilliant fire appeared behind Bella again, tracking her more accurately than a missile.

You run, I chase you, the radiant fire makes it impossible for Bella to escape~
This stalemate continued for a few minutes. Bella was finally angered. The anger in her heart overwhelmed her fear of the glorious fire, and she faced the powerful flame head-on.

Bella suddenly reached out, pulled out the magic wand that had been hanging on her waist as a decoration, and aimed it at the glorious fire.

"The water is as clear as a spring!"

He suddenly uttered the spell in an extremely hoarse, inhuman voice.

Lin Xia's pupils shrank slightly. He actually used a magic spell! (End of this chapter)
