The Wind and the Wings of Hogwarts

“Besides the wizards who experienced it firsthand last night, we might be the first to know about it!” Eddie’s voice was still very excited.

As soon as he reached the bottom of the slide, he couldn't wait to stand up, light up his lamp, and rush into the studio.

When Scott entered the studio, he had already lit all the candles and rummaged through an old desk to find several packets of cookies.

“Are you sure these cookies are edible?” Scott raised an eyebrow. “These are Fred and George’s stuff; who knows what they’ve put in them.”

“You’re right.” Eddie’s hand holding the biscuit was a little stiff.

He rubbed his stomach, but in the end he didn't dare to try.

Scott sat down, took the deformed lizard skin bag from his waist, and took out all the panoramic binoculars.

“Don’t rush,” he said to Eddie, who hurriedly picked up the panoramic binoculars. “I still have some food here.”

During the Christmas holidays, Emilia prepared a large bag of snacks for him, which he stuffed into the shapeshifting lizard skin bag when he left, and then forgot about it.

He rummaged through the lizard-skin bag and a bunch of colorful snacks appeared on the table.

"Oh!" Eddie's eyes lit up. He picked up a bag of potato chips, tore open the packaging, and stuffed the chips into his mouth.

"It feels like it's been so long since I've eaten these things, I really miss them," he mumbled.

Scott handed him another can of Coke, and Eddie was even happier.

"I love Coke! I love potato chips!" Eddie cheered.

Scott picked up a panoramic telescope and placed it in front of his eyes, turning the dial with one hand.

The scene he saw quickly receded, from daytime to night.

Scott then realized that the eagles had returned to the Forbidden Forest before dawn.

He also discovered a flaw in the design.

After completing their assigned tasks, the eagles lost their ability to move.

They threw the panoramic telescopes back onto the ground where they had initially picked up the telescopes, and remained unmoved even after Rimbaud and the crows took them away.

Fortunately, Scott had Rimbaud and the crows guard the lakeside, otherwise he might not have been able to retrieve the telescopes.

Scott silently noted down the mistake.

As he continued to swipe his finger, the scene in front of him continued to accelerate backward until he saw the familiar Little Hangleton village.

This is a fixed view from one side of the Gaunt House, overlooking the dilapidated courtyard of the old house.

Scott's fingers continued to scroll faster, and figures appeared on the screen, but he didn't stop, scrolling until the scene where the eagle with the panoramic telescope placed it on a tree.

Scott then changed the operation, making the video play forward instead of backward, and also speeding up the playback.

He only slowed the video down again when the first figure appeared on screen.

"They've appeared! The man in the green robe! And a witch! Oh! This is..."

At the same time, he heard Eddie's exclamation.

Scott stared at the figure that had suddenly appeared in the scene before him.

Although the lighting in the picture is dim, the green robe on the figure can still be vaguely discerned.

The green-robed man apparated into the courtyard of Gaunt's old house. He circled the three dilapidated rooms, then went inside, seemingly inspecting something.

Not long after, he reappeared in the courtyard and waved to the sky.

Soon, more people in green robes appeared.

They rode on Thestrals, escorting a magnificent carriage pulled by four Thestrals as it descended from the sky and filled the small courtyard.

The two magic lamps hanging on the carriage illuminated the courtyard.

The green-robed man who had appeared first trotted over to the carriage and bowed in invitation.

The carriage door opened, and a hand wrapped in a black lace glove emerged.

The green-robed man who was bowing quickly stretched out his arm, letting the other hand provide support.

Medea stepped gracefully out of the carriage.

She wore a dark green robe with silver trim, a black hat with a upturned brim decorated with black tulips and black lace, and a hazy black veil covering her face, revealing her straight nose and sharp chin.

Her blood-red lips were the only bright spot on her otherwise snow-white lower face.

Her red lips parted slightly, and she seemed to say something, but unfortunately the panoramic telescope couldn't record the sound.

Scott flicked his finger, speeding up the playback.

Medea quickly entered the house, followed by several men in green robes, and disappeared from the scene.

The other green-robed men settled all the Thestrals and dispersed to guard the inside and outside of the old house.

Scott then fast-forwarded the footage again.

Not long after, a blood-red light shone through the cracks in the doors and windows of the dilapidated house, illuminating the surrounding ground.

Scott slowed down the playback speed again.

The red light first shone brightly, and then seemed to flash at a certain frequency, like blood splattered on the ground.

Scott frowned upon seeing this.

Medea appears to have begun a sacrificial ritual inside the house.

However, this old house shouldn't have enough magical energy to supply her with enough for the sacrificial ritual...

Unless she has a single-use magic stone.

But Scott quickly had no time to think about it, because the battle had begun.

The light of the spell surged in from all directions, and a group of Aurors from the Ministry of Magic suddenly appeared, fighting against the green-robed men guarding the courtyard.

Although the green-robed men had the numerical advantage, they were no match for the elite Aurors in combat, and several of them quickly fell.

Just as the Aurors were about to rush into the courtyard, three men in green robes came out of the house.

The three green-robed men immediately took action, displaying extraordinary magical skills, pushing the Aurors back and even injuring several of them.

The two sides reached a stalemate.

The Aurors were unable to breach the old house, and the green-robed man was unable to completely repel the Aurors.

Throughout this process, Medea never appeared, and the crimson light emanating from the house continued to flicker.

Just then, Scott heard Eddie's exclamation again.

"Oh, they're fighting! How come it's an Auror? Where's the Demon King? Oh, danger!" He started muttering incessantly, "Great! They're almost there, oh! An even more powerful green-robed man has appeared, this is too dangerous..."

But the scene before Scott's eyes had changed.

With a flash of light that seemed to teleport, a group of men in black robes appeared on the other side of the courtyard.

Their appearance immediately revealed the fighting style of dark wizards, with green light flying everywhere and death curses flying from their wands, attacking the green-robed man and the Auror respectively.

"Death Eaters have appeared!" Eddie seemed to have seen this scene from another angle as well.

Just then, the dilapidated wall of the courtyard suddenly moved.

The dilapidated wall twisted and turned, eventually becoming a single, cohesive whole, and finally transforming into an incredibly terrifying giant python.

As the giant python snaked and crawled, it used its body to block all the death curses.

Dumbledore emerged from the darkness, wand in hand.

The moment he appeared, the Aurors immediately smiled, while all the Green Robes and Death Eaters involuntarily took a step back.

This is the power of the greatest wizard of this century.

Scott watched this scene with a sigh.

Although the Green Robe Man and the Death Eaters showed fear of Dumbledore, none of them fled immediately.

Dumbledore flicked his wand and began to fight again.

The giant python, which had been transformed from the wall, quickly recovered from the damage inflicted by the Death Curse and set out again.

The snake's head moved towards the Death Eaters, while its tail lashed out at the dilapidated house that was constantly emitting a red glow.

The Aurors began to act again, unleashing spells upon the Death Eaters and the Green Robes.

Under Dumbledore's command, several Death Eaters and men in black robes quickly fell.

The remaining green-robed men began to defend the house with defensive spells, while the remaining Death Eaters began to fight and retreat.

Dumbledore's long silver beard fluttered as a barrage of spells poured forth from his wand.

The power of those spells was so astonishing that it was almost impossible to discern what spells he had used.

On this battlefield, he was like a cheat user who could turn ordinary single-target attacks into powerful area-of-effect attacks, suppressing everyone so much that they couldn't even raise their heads.

The number of Death Eaters and Green Robes falling was increasing.

If Dumbledore hadn't refused to kill, these people wouldn't have simply fallen to the ground.

Just then, the crimson light inside the room completely disappeared, and Medea came out of the room and said something.

Dumbledore stopped what he was doing.

Outside the courtyard, the remaining Death Eaters were clearly in a panic and quickly used their Apparition Charm to escape.

Dumbledore ignored them and walked into the courtyard alone.

The Aurors also sprang into action, seizing the Green Robes and Death Eaters who had fallen to the ground and confiscating their wands.

Dumbledore and Medea then began their conversation.

Because there was no sound, Scott couldn't determine exactly what they said.

But not long after, their talks seemed to break down, and they started fighting.

Dumbledore once again displayed overwhelming power, and even Medea could only barely hold on with the help of a few green-robed men.

Just then, Dumbledore suddenly changed his target, and a spell shattered a wall of the house, revealing a figure inside.

Chapter 350 Traps, Curiosity, and Wild Beasts

The moment Medea saw the figure inside the room, she uttered something.
