Chapter 1349: Hogwarts Holy War: Supporting the Sky
Standing in front of the big hole created by the meteorite, gazing at the high cliffs outside the Hogwarts campus, tears flowed from Dumbledore's blue eyes, rolled down his cheeks, and dripped onto his beard.
The distance in space seemed to be compressed, and the sight spanned the sea of fire.
The two people could not see each other clearly, but the blue eyes and silver eyes each reflected the other's old face.
One summer vacation’s joy, a lifetime’s regret!
Half a century has passed, and all the ups and downs, grudges and grievances have disappeared in the polish of time, leaving only a weathered face.
"Gettler——"
Dumbledore murmured, looking towards the high cliff with emotion.
"I'm coming, Albus--"
The man on the hillside had a proud smile that never faded over the years. He said,
"This time, I'm here to protect something you hold dear."
A creaking sound was heard in the void, and the huge trunk of the Whomping Willow, which was as tall as the world tree in the myth, swayed as if it was groaning!
Two bright streams of light shot out from the hole and then separated in different directions.
The golden one flew towards the forbidden forest, and the azure one flew towards the half remaining Black Lake.
"Just let me learn from you!"
Amostas's gray hair danced wildly in the air, and the fierce pressure emanating from his body even distorted the space!
He looked up at the island of Avalon that blocked out the sun and sky. The gleam of light from his blazing eyes was painful to look at, and the sound of his loud shouting was as deafening as the sound of a bell.
"The divine power of the ancient legendary wizard!"
Roar!
Roar!
Roar!
In the roaring world, roars filled with determination to risk everything rang out one after another.
boom!
boom!
boom!
The ground of the forbidden forest cracked into shocking fissures amid the earthquake!
Along with Amosta's fierce roar, the darkness deep in the rift abyss was eliminated bit by bit!
The magma buried deep in the earth roared and surged into the mortal world, driven by the figure that looked like a god or a demon standing in the air, and burst all the way towards the sky!
The hot magma surged up to the sky and turned into a giant pillar that supported the still sinking Island of Avalon!
Dumbledore stood on the majestic Black Lake, his robe rustling in the strong wind, his azure eyes, which always embraced everything, now showed not only joy but also vitality.
It's so full of vitality that it seems to be burning!
Dumbledore also lay on his back, roaring in a weathered voice. His movements were so large that it seemed as if he was struggling to swing a heavy chain!
Then, the black lake beneath him began to churn.
A whirlpool appeared, only the size of a palm at first, but it expanded at an alarming speed with every breath. After just a dozen breaths, the whirlpool had encompassed the entire remaining black lake.
Wow!
As Dumbledore's wand pointed to the sky, a huge amount of lake water rushed towards the sky and formed a second towering pillar!
Grindelwald on the hillside reached out and caught the snakewood wand that flew out from the rolling dust!
He stroked the wand with his fingers. The wand was warm, as if it had always been kept close to the body, and the smooth shaft looked as if it had been rubbed thousands of times in someone's hands!
"It's really exciting—"
Grindelwald chuckled. After so many years, he held his real wand for the first time!
The black, fishy wind swept in all directions like a plowing beast, and with a low roar like the roar of an animal, the rocky hillsides cracked and turned into sand!
The dark yellow quicksand formed a twisted tornado-like giant column, supporting the last tilted corner of the Island of Avalon!
The four giant pillars finally held up the heavy Island of Avalon, gaining a glimmer of hope for the land on the verge of collapse!
"Brian, Dumbledore Grindelwald!"
A violent and cruel laugh sounded above the heavy gray clouds.
"You can't stop me. Voldemort already has power beyond your comprehension!"
Rumble!
Thousands of thunders exploded in the sky.
The ominous gray clouds began to roll violently again. Among the layers of mist, four blood-red giant eyes as big as the moon illuminated the clouds. The iron-blue snake bodies as long as the mountains twisted and were about to descend!
"Stop him in the sky!"
Amosta roared, and the scorching fire that emerged from his body once again turned him into a golden sun. He rushed into the sky with an indomitable determination!
The drained black lake, an ice-blue star, and the silver moon on the flattened rocks also rushed into the sky!
It’s like a war between gods!
Three colors intertwined in the dark sky, and three stars passed through the void. Wherever they passed, the gray fog evaporated.
They rolled up and down on the mountain-long snake's body. Every touch with the snake's body caused the giant snake to roar in pain and the void to tremble!
Suddenly it started to rain.
Oh. But that was not real rain, but rain transformed from gray fog.
On the island of Avalon, propped up high in the sky, chilling roars echoed one after another.
Shadows of all sizes were wrapped in gray mist, some flying with wings spread, some running along the huge trunk of the Whomping Willow, densely packed, rushing towards the ground. The people who were still standing in the office finally withdrew their gazes.
"what should we do?"
Horace's face was pale without a trace of blood, and every syllable he uttered was trembling.
silence.
The three stars in the sky are still shining.
"We have two choices—"
Sirius was the first to come back to his senses from the silence. He took a step forward and turned his equally pale face.
"Stay here and wait to die. Second——"
Harry saw his godfather's cheeks flush, the shock of what he had seen faded away, his handsome face became ferocious with fanaticism.
"Everyone, kill them together!!!"
Boom!
The door of the headmaster's office was blown open, and in the thick smoke and dust, Harry followed his godfather and rushed out!
"Little wizards!"
Professor Flitwick, who was following behind the others, screamed,
"We can't abandon them, we have to save them, I have to save them!"
No one had any objection to this proposal. At this moment, the three people on the sky were fighting hard to fight for everyone's chance of survival!
While rushing down the spiral staircase to the small tower where the principal's office was located, everyone discussed countermeasures.
"Filius, Pomona——"
Sirius called out to the two of them,
“The three of us are going to Ravenclaw’s tower to rescue the students!
Minerva, Arthur, go to Gryffindor tower and help the little wizards of Gryffindor!
Frank, Alice, Frommid, Horace, Hagrid, you take Harry and the others and rush down, we will gather in the hall, guard the castle, and then rush out together!"
"But what about the little Hufflepuff wizards? They have no one to help them!"
Professor Sprout shouted, holding up his hat.
"And Slytherin!"
Professor Slughorn shouted back.
"The Slytherin and Hufflepuff dormitories are both underground. If they hadn't fainted from their sleep, I think they would have gathered in the Great Hall by now!"
A meteorite had shattered the spiral staircase, and Sirius hastily repaired it with a wave of his wand before answering the question.
"Members of the exchange group. Luo Ya and the others are still there!"
Hermione bit her lip and screamed as she rushed down into the crowd.
"They are on the third floor, they can only run faster than us--"
Harry said quickly, he hesitated,
"Sirius, the Ministry's striker is still in Professor Braine's office, and there are still Death Eaters imprisoned there!"
"It's too late to worry about the lives of Death Eaters, Harry!"
Mr. Weasley gasped.
"As for Kingsley and the others, I think they are now in the Great Hall protecting the students!"
They finally reached the tower where the principal's office was located and the floor where the castle's corridor was located. The moment they rushed out of the tower, when the chaotic world appeared clearly before them, everyone gasped!
The shabby campus has been completely occupied by monsters wrapped in gray fog. The sky and the ground are filled with densely packed mysterious creatures with hideous appearances that have been assimilated by death!
The eerie howls that came one after another made Harry feel as if he had arrived in hell!
The corridor in front of them was also occupied by monsters. There were at least dozens of small dwarf goblins covered with white bone armor all over the two hundred-foot-long corridor!
"I'm going to kill you!"
The sad and crazy voice woke up the dazed people. Harry looked towards the other end of the corridor and saw a boy with blood all over his body and a look of grief and anger jumping down the stairs shrouded in shadows. He yelled at the dwarves blocking his way and waved his wand repeatedly, chopping down the dwarves one by one!
"Cedric."
Harry whispered softly, he looked at the crazy boy, and the girl sleeping quietly in his arms,
"Autumn?"
