Chapter 660: Starting a War (4)
Soul had been waiting quietly in the foyer.
About five minutes after Harry accepted the suggestion to look at the memory that Dumbledore had placed, Harry appeared again, and at this moment, there was not much time left before the last time given by Voldemort.
He looked at Suer with a complicated expression. In that memory, he understood everything.
turn out to be---
"Am I a Horcrux?"
Soul nodded slightly.
"Why are you all hiding this from me?" Harry took a deep breath, seeming to calm his inner turmoil.
"It's Dumbledore's intention." Soul replied softly, "He doesn't want you to face this heavy fact prematurely."
Harry nodded silently, took out the invisibility cloak and put it on himself.
"Then, I'm leaving."
He left those words, and a gust of wind. Sur watched in silence as the oak door of the castle was opened a gap, and in silence he watched as the oak door was closed.
The next step was Harry's own business, and Soul had no intention of following him to see the famous scene.
Everything has been arranged, and what's more, where is Dumbledore? This old bee has been silent since he came back to life. I'm afraid he is also watching Harry, right?
perhaps?
Suer shook his head slightly, sighed, stood quietly for a while, then turned and walked towards the auditorium.
……
The Great Hall was in chaos, everyone was looking for Harry.
They finally discovered that Harry had disappeared.
"Have you seen Harry?" Ginny saw Soul walking in from the door. She ran over as if she had found a life-saving straw. Her face was filled with tears and her whole face was red with anxiety. .
"I just went to see how Ron was doing, and Harry disappeared. Wasn't it just Ron who blocked Harry? No matter it was me or whoever it was, we would all do this at that moment."
Before Su Er could answer, a loud and excited sound exploded.
"Harry Potter, dead!"
Everyone was stunned, including Ginny.
"You heard me right. What I'm talking about is, Harry Potter. When all of you were fighting for him and sacrificing for him, he ran away and only thought about his own life."
"I brought his body to you to prove that your hero is indeed dead!"
Ginny's body softened and she fell weakly to the ground, as Voldemort's voice continued to sound.
"We won, the Boy-Who-Lived, he's dead! There will never be another war, and now, I want you to come to the square."
"Come here and see for yourself that I'm not lying!"
Voldemort's cold and triumphant voice still echoed in the air. Everyone in the auditorium looked at each other in horror. The atmosphere of panic spread in the auditorium, and no one believed it.
"Let's go out and take a look." A young wizard said with a trembling voice.
People began to walk hard towards the outside of the castle.
Voldemort looked at the people walking out of the castle one by one, cruelty flashing in his narrow and scarlet eyes.
He spoke again.
"Go, Severus, let them see, see in their eyes the savior whom Dumbledore has placed their hope in."
Snape looked calm and walked slowly between the two parties, with Harry Potter in his arms.
"Oh no!"
Most people looked desperate.
"Do you see it? Do you see it clearly?" Voldemort lazily lowered his arms. Nagini stood up at his feet and put her head under Voldemort's palm.
Voldemort's slender, lipless mouth was slightly raised in a ferocious smile.
"He was killed while trying to escape from the school." Voldemort said lightly, "You regard him as the savior of hope, but he is just a coward. I can still see Potter kneeling on the ground not long ago, Please let me spare his life----"
"That's nonsense!" Before Voldemort could finish speaking, Sirius pulled out the wand, and the hand holding the wand trembled with anger, "Harry, there's no way he--"
"Do you want to take action against me, Black?" Voldemort grinned exaggeratedly, "Just like your good brother, who thinks he is brave but resists me in vain?"
"Master, I am willing to kill him for you." Bella Trix, who was beside Voldemort, immediately raised her wand excitedly.
"No, Bella, it's not the time yet." Voldemort refused softly,
"Come back, Severus."
Snape gently put down Harry in his arms and backed away slowly.
Voldemort ignored the wand in Sirius' hand that was always pointing at him and looked at everyone.
"As I said, I am merciful. I am willing to give you a chance. Now, it is the last choice. Those who surrender to me kneel down in front of me, or die!"
There was silence in the field.
"no way!"
Although in this timeline that seemed to be moving forward but had changed, Neville did not have many highlight moments for him, but at this time, he still bravely stood up and acted like a true Like Gryffindor, he waved his wand at Voldemort.
But how could he do even a little harm to Voldemort?
The red light was easily blocked by Voldemort with a wave of his hand. With another wave, Neville immediately lifted his feet off the ground, flew into the air, and fell heavily, landing next to Harry.
"Uh..." He let out a pained groan.
Neville's action was like a signal to start a battle. Everyone pulled out their wands, and spells shot out from the tips of their wands.
Facing the impending curse, Voldemort laughed loudly.
"Very good, I see your determination, very good."
He waved the Elder Wand in his hand,
A transparent shield stood up.
With the addition of the Elder Wand, Voldemort's strength has been exaggerated to an absurd level. Everyone watched helplessly as all the spells were completely blocked by the protective spell released by Voldemort.
This kind of strength makes people feel the despair that arises from the heart.
"very good."
The shield dissipated, and Voldemort showed a kind smile, as if what happened just now had never happened.
"I feel your determination and know your choice."
He said softly, and patted Nagini gently with his lowered arm.
"Maybe you don't quite understand what the situation is like now."
"I really don't want to kill all of you, so what can I do to make you understand?"
"Okay, how about I show you what happens to those who resist?"
"Nagini, kill him, kill that brave little boy, if one isn't enough-"
There was extreme coldness underneath Voldemort's voice,
"Then let's eat Harry Potter too."
