Chapter 767

At this time, the frontal battle of Hogwarts was in full swing.

Hogwarts' cannon fodder, the Knights of the Guard, is almost depleted, and the statues don't last long in the face of attacks from giants and trolls. It usually takes three or four statues to contain a giant, and with the help of Voldemort's wizards, the statues quickly turn into rubble. Only a small number of statues remain fighting in the courtyard.

The once beautiful vestibule had been reduced to ruins by the light of the fire—the corridor had almost collapsed, and only a few pillars remained. The flowers and plants in the yard are destroyed and cleaned at the first time - beautiful things are always fragile.

At this point, the vestibule was already numerically dominant on Voldemort's side: giants, a small number of trolls and eight-eyed spiders, and some of Voldemort's Cube wizards, while the only ones in charge of fending them off were Professor McGonagall, Professor Flitwick, Professor Slughorn, and ...... Basque.

How to say it, a well-prepared thousand-year-old basilisk is really strong in combat. Even giants die under Basque's gaze - no different from wizards, and the eight-eyed spider ...... There are only a handful of eight-eyed spiders here, and they are all far away.

Even the giant couldn't withstand the blows from the Basque tail, and Slughorn had seen the giant basilisk burst the giant's stone-like head with its tail more than once.

"I suddenly felt ...... We may be able to hold on. "

Slughorn gasped, he was so old and in ...... shape Not suitable for intense sports, if he hadn't known that Dumbledore would come out to clean up, he would have wanted to pick a pick.

"Don't be blindly optimistic!" Professor Flitwick knocked away a wizard who tried to sneak into the castle, "Don't forget, they still have a lot of Dementors!"

That being said, there are not many Dementors to be seen on the frontal battlefield at this time. Of course, it may have something to do with the fact that there are not many people here: Professor McGonagall, Professor Flitwick, Professor Slughorn...... There are only three people at Hogwarts, so there are too few targets, and Professor Flitwick has the ability to kill Dementors completely, and after killing a few Dementors who don't have long eyes, most of them go to other places to "forage". For these creatures of pure darkness, they came to Hogwarts to feast on a feast.

The external battlefield of Hogwarts has been compressed to the limit, and if it is compressed, it will have to be fought inside the castle. There really wasn't much Hogwarts could do, they were too few in number. In addition to the direction of the Hogwarts gate, the direction of the Forbidden Forest is second only to the frontal battlefield, and Moody and Kingsley are already somewhat unable to hold it.

The tide-like eight-eyed spiders are the ones who put the most pressure on them, and the Dark Horse people who run out of the Forbidden Forest are extremely strong creatures that have a decent resistance to ordinary spells, and if you want to knock them down in one go, you have to use a powerful blast charm or a powerful crushing charm to do so.

Although Moody and Kingsley are also powerful wizards, they are still a little powerless in the face of so many enemies - they must stay where they are and protect the entrance to the castle from being breached, which leaves them with no room to move and flip, and can only carry the bows and arrows and spears thrown from the opposite side, not to mention the spells of some wizards. If it weren't for Moody's and Kingsley's excellent skills, they would have been stabbed by the Dark Horse or packed and taken away by the Eight-Eyed Spider.

Even if the two of them still insisted, it was only a matter of time before they retreated to the castle - their magic was strong but not inexhaustible, and even if they were sufficient, physical fatigue was a factor that could not be ignored.

The vast majority of Hogwarts students are in the common room, and you can't expect every student to be like Gryffindor, so a lot of panic and fear attracts Dementors. Hogwarts is indeed a castle, but castles also have windows. With the exception of Slytherin and Hufflepuff, where the common room is underground, were not invaded by the Dementors, both Gryffindor Tower and Ravenclaw Tower were invaded.

This is where the role of D.A comes in, and with most of the senior students being drafted, there are still some fifth-year D.A members in the lounge who can use the Patronus Charm, although most of the students can barely release some mist, but that's better than nothing.

The Ravenclaw common room was filled with screams of terror, and the remaining ones were the junior students, who had little to do in the face of the Dementors, except for a silver-white rabbit trying to chase away the pure dark creatures, but the rabbit was of little use due to the number of Dementors.

"Divine Guard!"

Suddenly, a roaring silver lion emerges from the wall and knocks away a Dementor who attempts to "eat", and Patronus such as ravens and albatross join the battlefield through the wall.

The bronze door to the Ravenclaw common room was opened—and the members of the D.A. arrived just in time. After a flurry of chickens and dogs, the Dementors here were temporarily driven away, but there were still many junior students who were "sucked", but fortunately, the students knew what to do, and the stock of chocolate snacks in the dormitory was quite sufficient.

Like Ravenclaw, Gryffindor experienced a Dementor attack. After chasing away the unpleasant creatures, Harry looked at the mess in the common room with a gloomy face.

"Twelve students were attacked, and thankfully, their souls were still in their bodies and were not sucked by the Dementors. Hermione's hair was messier than usual, and she walked over to Harry's side with her wand.

"Solim is right, these Dementors have actually broken into the castle. "

"And what do you want to do?"

"There aren't Death Eaters in the castle yet, but that doesn't mean they won't come in, and we have to help the professors relieve their stress. Harry said, "We have so few of us. "

Fred and George were catching up with their friends at this time, and the twins were surrounded by a large crowd.

"That's not what I'm worried about. Hermione shook her head, "I'm worried about Solim's side...... Since he drove us back, it means that the situation on his side will be worse, and I am a little worried......"

Harry glanced at Hermione with a complicated expression, he could see Hermione's caution about Solim, but he didn't think it was a possibility between the two of them.

"Boom!"

The loud tremor made everyone present a little unsteady on their feet, and the junior students began to scream in panic again.

The Bing Room and the Gryffindor common room are both on the eighth floor, and although they are not close, it is still easy to judge the location with this level of vibration.

"Solim!" Hermione shouted, pulling Harry and running towards the door.
