Hogwarts doesn't need a savior

This is the revenge of the werewolf's victims, and also a battle to vent the rage that has been accumulated for decades.

But Greyback was by no means an easy target. Even though he was at the end of his rope, he still didn't take Lupin seriously. He blocked the curse with a powerful wave of his hand, and it exploded on the sand pile behind him.

"Is that all you have got, kid? I've killed countless idiots like you! Even your incompetent father is much better than you!"

Perhaps because he knew that the end was near, or perhaps for some other reason, Greyback laughed wildly and wantonly, not at all like he was facing a tough and powerful enemy.

Lupin, who was already on the verge of exploding, was undoubtedly completely enraged by this contempt, even though he knew it was a provocation.

Unafraid of the mad wolf virus, he rushed forward and fought his opponent in the most Gryffindor style.

Magic power surged, spells flew, and the gentle Defense Against the Dark Arts professor displayed all his skills in rage, leaving wounds on the body of the werewolf leader.

This was exactly what Graberk had in mind. His eyes, which had turned a mixture of scarlet and dark green due to wolf madness, were trying their best to conceal their madness.

At the end of the First Wizarding War, he had dealt with Lynn more than once and was well aware of his pride and arrogance, which made him look down on everyone except Dumbledore and Voldemort.

This is also the only opportunity in his eyes.

There was a gloom hidden on his ferocious face. He muttered to himself silently, fighting and retreating, allowing Lupin to attack him relentlessly, thinking about how to take someone with him before he died.

Chapter 362 The Dark Cloud Behind the Werewolf

Greyback's vision is beautiful, but there is always a long distance between ideals and reality.

Because the person he was facing was Remus Lupin, who was far more than just the werewolf wizard he had created.

Lupin's anger did expose his flaws and did create an opportunity for Greyback.

After dozens of spell attacks and defenses, the distance between him and Lupin was so close that he could almost reach Lupin, which gave him the possibility to deliver a fatal blow.

And that's exactly what he did.

In the deliberate retreat, he seized on Lupin's lack of combat experience and his fear of using the Unforgivable Curse, which was not a flaw. After a series of retreats, he used the natural werewolf's unique magic resistance to block an evil curse and turned from defense to offense without any warning.

The sharp dagger was wrapped in eerie black magic, instantly breaking through the protection of the Armor Spell and going straight for Lupin's chest.

In the fast-paced close combat, he was sure that even Lynn and Sonia would not be able to stop his attack in time.

But he thought wrong.

Just as he saw the blade about to enter his body and a cruel and satisfied laugh appeared on his face, a shield instantly condensed from yellow sand appeared between the two of them.

With a "swish" sound, the hairy and muscular left forearm was cut off at the elbow by the sharp edge, and fell to the ground before the blood even flowed out.

The pain had not yet reached his mind, but Greyback could already see his end.

Even if he made all the calculations, he could not overcome the magical barrier that separated life and death in front of him.

In the face of an absolute gap in strength, the plans of the weak can only be an interlude to add to the fun, and there will only be one ending for him.

"Damn it! All petrified!"

"Bam—"

The tall figure fell heavily to the ground, and the blood flowing from the elbow flowed all over the ground and was swallowed up by the endless yellow sand.

The dust has settled.

The criminals who had been at large for decades were no longer able to resist, and the dark cloud that had lingered in Lupin's heart for most of his life also dissipated.

But the revenge did not make him happy.

Looking at the yellow sand shield slowly dissipating in front of him, thinking of the life-and-death situation just now, he felt a pang of fear in his heart.

A moment later would mean the difference between life and death.

Even the shield itself might not be used for this purpose.

Thinking of this, he felt his heart beating faster, as if he had narrowly escaped from the clutches of death and saved his life.

The urge for revenge fades, and the sense of fear rises.

"It turns out, Remus, you're not very good at this kind of dangerous work." Sonia walked up to Lupin and patted his shoulder comfortingly. "But it doesn't matter. I have a lot of people here who are good at fighting. You can relax."

Her comfort had no effect, but instead made Lupin feel a little amused and helpless - and he had no way to refute it.

As an outstanding graduate of Hogwarts, he is a few years older than Sonia and is indeed not as good as this junior. Not only are his practical skills inferior, but his magical level is also the same.

The shield just now is enough to illustrate his skill.

In a tiny space, a tiny amount of space, even though he was so close, he couldn't react in time, but Sonia, who was dozens of meters away, was able to accurately predict Greyback's actions, and even if he was a little slower, she could quickly adjust and respond.

This is a level that is not much inferior to Minerva's, Lupin thought to himself, and at the same time he couldn't help but recall the other classmates who gathered around Lynn when he was in school, and felt quite sad.

"Thank you, Sonia." He smiled bitterly, "I may not be very good at this type of battle. I am grateful that you saved me this time, otherwise I would have lost my life."

"We're going to be colleagues soon, why are you being so polite to me?" Sonia raised her lips and pointed forward, "Even if I don't make it, do you think Lin En will just sit there and do nothing?"

Following Sonia's fingertips, Lupin lowered his head and saw a silver flower ornament on the chest, which was very inconspicuous.

"This is……?"

He didn't even know when this happened to him.

"You can think of it as a second life." Sonia smiled mischievously, "With that guy around, it's not easy to die. He's best at these life-saving methods."

"...So that's it."

A sense of security arose in Lupin's heart, which was a new feeling he had never experienced before.

-----------------

There was a bloody smell in the air, half coming from Greyback who was lying on the ground, and the other half coming from the three wanted Balkan werewolves floating behind Lynn.

They probably looked even more miserable and miserable than Greyback at this moment, breathing their last breath.

"click"

With a crisp sound, the wand fell to the ground and broke into two pieces.

Then, the magic of the petrification spell quietly dissipated, and the bound runes were seamlessly tied up the evil old werewolf like a dumpling.

"Will you tell me yourself, or wait for me to find it out?"

Lynn crouched beside Greyback, looking calmly into his eyes and asked a question that wasn't really a question.

"I'm curious about who could make you take more initiative than joining Voldemort."

Greyback's pupils contracted instantly, as if he had seen something that frightened him more than death.

The old werewolf, who had been imprisoned countless times and endured countless punishments and interrogations in the Ministry of Magic prison, was already trembling like a sieve, even though he had clearly not suffered any torture.

"You... I don't know what you are talking about! If you want to kill me, you don't have to make so many excuses. I know your way."

"You are right. No matter what you say to me today, you will not die here. But you should know that death is not a punishment sometimes."

"Eric, don't forget that I am a werewolf, and I was born a werewolf. Even the Cruciatus Curse is just a tickle to me."

"I don't deny that your subordinate is the same." Lin En was not angered by his words and said with a smile, "But do you know how I pried his mouth open?"

"...!"

Greyback wanted to speak again, but he never got the chance.

His body was squirming with difficulty. The blood from his broken arm had been forcibly stopped by Lin En, turning into an ugly scar.

The unprecedented feeling of suffocation plunged him into an irresistible vortex of pain. It was not mental torture, nor physical destruction, but the despair of having a blunt knife cut into flesh.

Pain is just one of the most direct and sometimes lowest forms of suffering.

Lin En never expected to get anything out of these diehard outlaws, and even if he did, he wouldn't be able to believe it. What he had to do from beginning to end was to destroy their will, and then search for the answer himself in their collapsed spiritual world.

From the Balkan werewolf brothers to Greyback.

No one can resist the laws of physiology, but the length of time they can persist varies - Grey Knight only lasts a few minutes, Balkan's werewolf brothers last a little longer than him, and Greyback, who seems to be the toughest, is actually not as good as his subordinates.

Perhaps it was because the body structure of a natural werewolf was different from that of a wizard or an acquired werewolf. In just a moment, his consciousness completely collapsed in the fainting caused by frequent suffocation.

The divergent pupils gave Lin En the opportunity to take advantage of the situation, and also completely exposed the secret dormant in his mind.

In the messy memory, Lin En found the information that he most wanted to verify, the manipulator behind the werewolf mob.

The mastermind hiding in the shadows.

Chapter 363 Leviathan

Leviathan, in ancient legends, is a symbol of a powerful monster that swims in the deep sea and surrounds the vast earth with its huge snake body.

For thousands of years, its prototype can be seen in the myths of countless civilizations. Its forms are bizarre and even difficult to distinguish between good and evil, but its powerful force remains unchanged.

In Greyback's memory, what Lynn found was a mysterious organization named Leviathan that was full of doubts.

When Greyback and his companions were stranded in the desert, they found the right opportunity to find him and offered him an offer that was hard to refuse.

For two years, all the food, clothing and other necessities of the werewolf gangs in this oasis came from the hidden routes provided by the organization, which allowed them to stay here for a long time.

As the leader, Greyback obtained several powerful spells suitable for werewolves, as well as a precious magic dagger.

This was a far more generous gift than Voldemort's, and it also made the cunning Greyback smell the scent of profit.

As for the price, it was nothing more than their old business, as mercenaries burning, killing and looting, they just had a generous boss, and even the demands made by this boss were very few.

More than a year passed peacefully until Greyback received news of a treatment for werewolves.

Feeling a sense of crisis, he immediately planned to take action to stop this trend, but found it difficult to implement.

Even with the support of conservatives in the British Ministry of Magic, they still found it difficult to find an opportunity to do something big, especially because of the shortage of manpower due to the frequent attacks of the werewolf capture team.

It was in this context that Leviathan took the initiative to send people to this oasis, contacted him who was at a loss, and proposed a plan to jointly destroy the wizard communities of various countries.

St. Mungo's was just the beginning of a series of plans. This mysterious organization hoped to completely destroy the already fragile foundation of trust between wizards and werewolves through attacks. This coincided with Greyback's plan, and even with the wishes of pure-blood conservative wizards represented by Lucius Malfoy.

The three Balkan werewolf brothers and their subordinates, including those werewolf thugs who came from Europe in pieces, all came from afar under the coordination of this organization, to provide support to Greyback and lay the foundation for subsequent operations.

Like Greyback, they are Leviathan's partners, but the length of time they have been cooperating varies, but their ways of cooperation are basically the same.

Even according to Greyback's inference, it was definitely not just werewolves that cooperated with this mysterious and wealthy organization, because the messengers who came to look for him were not only wizards, but also vampires and goblins, two intelligent races that also had differences with the wizarding society.

But no matter whether it is him or the werewolves from various countries who gathered here with their own ulterior motives, no one knows who is actually controlling this organization, and no one knows what their real purpose is - just like a huge but unpredictable Leviathan hidden under the deep sea, surrounding the earth.

-----------------

A silvery-white substance that looked like mist but was not mist seeped out from Greyback's head along the tip of Lynn's wand, and was then put into a small glass bottle by him, accumulating into a fluid between liquid and gas.

This is the old wolf's entire memory of the attack and the Leviathan organization, including the distribution and personal information of his subordinates scattered across the UK - it can be said that this is all his value.

When the last bit of memory was completely squeezed out, a trace of barely perceptible fear flashed across Greyback's empty eyes, and then he fell to the ground like a rag bag, watching Lupin and Sonya slowly approaching from a distance in despair.

"I don't like sending such criminals to Azkaban. It would be too easy for them."

He heard what Lin En said and wanted to struggle, but he couldn't even move his eyelids. He could only watch as a sharp blade made of magic came from afar and pierced into his chest, and then he fell into eternal darkness in weakness.

Sharing the same fate as him are three werewolf brothers from the Balkan Peninsula.

In order to leave it for the Ministry of Magic to verify, Lin En deliberately did not use the Killing Curse or his signature Ice Rune. Instead, he simply killed them and covered up all the unnecessary information in the turbulent sand.

"Remus, now you can prepare for your new job with peace of mind. A job that can better help innocent people who are displaced like Mia. You have an important responsibility."

With his back to the four bodies that were gradually cooling down, Lynn walked towards Lupin as if nothing had happened and encouraged him affectionately.

"...I don't know how to thank you, Lynn." Lupin took a deep breath. "To be honest, I didn't expect you to be able to get rid of all these guys so quickly...I never thought it would be like this before this afternoon."

"Only if we act quickly and thoroughly can we avoid future troubles - it's not over yet, Sonya will definitely need your help." Lynn smiled and looked at her friend, "Greyback has left behind more than a dozen strongholds that we haven't taken down yet. You need to lead the way in many places to avoid harming innocent people and prevent those guys from taking desperate actions. Right, Sonya?"

Sonia agreed, "That's true, so I suggest you take a leave - probably for the remaining days of this week." As she spoke, she patted Lupin on the shoulder, expressing her kindness and appreciation for this new colleague who would be joining her team in more than a month.

This made Lupin feel very useful - it was like he was partially back in his student days. The difference was that the people he was with now were not as intimate as his old friends, but seemed more equal and respectful.

He could feel that his wishes and feelings were taken into consideration by the other party, which was extremely rare before.

"This is my job - I'd just like to trouble Lynn to help me find Minerva. I don't dare to face her."

He said this half-jokingly, and then stepped over Greyback's body as if he were crossing a chasm.

But he didn't notice that when he turned his back, Lynn and Sonya secretly exchanged glances.

It is now exactly midnight.
