Chapter 924 Snape's Choice, Comatose Connor
Kyle didn't know what Snape was doing. It was just an attack on Hogwarts. Did he have to go there himself?
Do you really think of yourself as a Death Eater?
……
Kyle walked back from the Astronomy Tower to the Auditorium.
It seemed that Voldemort had made another move, destroying the largest barrier of Hogwarts at present... The stone statues and armor were scattered on the ground, and there was no trace of magic left.
A large number of Death Eaters poured into the castle, and the stairs and halls were crowded with people.
Professor Flitwick was dueling with a blond Death Eater, sparks were flying between the two, and right next to them, a masked Death Eater was taking on Mr. Weasley.
Although he was masked, it was not difficult to tell from his huge size and clumsy movements that he should be old Goyle, also a veteran Death Eater.
Several graduates were around to help, and Oliver Wood successfully used a Stunning Spell to help Mr. Weasley deal with his opponent.
Old Goyle's sturdy body fell to the ground with a loud bang, smashing the Gryffindor scoring hourglass next to him, and the rubies inside were scattered everywhere.
Kyle waved his wand, and the rubies on the ground turned into daggers that floated in the air and then flew suddenly in one direction.
A gray figure just jumped down the stairs and was stabbed into a hedgehog by these gem daggers.
Three daggers pierced through the werewolf's throat at the same time. The werewolf didn't even struggle and just lay on the ground motionless.
At this time, the other werewolf also jumped down, and saw the other lying there covered in blood, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
He originally wanted to leave like this, but when he saw the red daggers floating up again, he immediately whimpered and waved his arms, as if he wanted to say something.
"Remus Lupin?" Kyle asked in a low voice, looking at his arms gesticulating constantly.
Lupin nodded repeatedly.
"Sorry," Kyle said, "werewolfs all look basically the same after they transform. I can't tell them apart."
Werewolf Lupin shook his head, probably telling Kyle not to worry about it.
To be honest, he was really scared when he saw those daggers flying, for fear that Kyle would stab him.
Today is a full moon, when the werewolf is at its strongest. The werewolf fought with him for more than ten minutes, but was killed in seconds after meeting Kyle.
If Kyle had moved faster just now, he might not have had time to explain.
All Lupin wanted now was to leave the castle as soon as possible.
It’s pretty good outside, at least I don’t have to worry about being accidentally hurt by Kyle.
"Wait a minute, Remus." Kyle stopped Lupin who was about to leave, "Can you find Sirius now?"
He just remembered that Lupin was now in werewolf form with a very keen sense of smell, making him the best candidate for finding people.
Sure enough, Lupin just sniffed around and pointed to somewhere outside the school, which seemed to be the Quidditch field...
He howled twice and seemed to be saying something, but Kyle didn't understand, perhaps because werewolves were not considered magical creatures or for some other reason.
But he didn't care, waved his hand and ran outside.
"Thank you."
Kyle walked through the hall and left the cat here to help deal with the Death Eaters.
The cat-leopard is the most suitable magical animal for this kind of melee. Its ability of telepathy can easily distinguish the relationship between friends and enemies so as not to help the wrong people.
Taking advantage of this time, Kyle also successfully arrived at the area outside the castle.
Several big spiders were lying on the wall outside the castle, making rustling sounds, trying to crawl into the castle through the gap.
"Are there any who have slipped through the net?" Kyle frowned slightly.
He had already dealt with the potentially threatening eight-eyed giant spiders in the Forbidden Forest and got some venom. Otherwise, there might not be just a few of them coming out, but a large group.
Just as he was hesitating whether to get rid of these giant spiders first or go find Snape first, a Hungarian Horntail suddenly descended from the sky and ate all the giant spiders from the wall in a few seconds, just like eating multi-flavored beans.
It was even roasted with dragon flame beforehand.
"I hope Hagrid can't see such a cruel scene." Kyle muttered softly and ran quickly towards the Quidditch field, but he was forced to stop halfway.
A dozen Dementors gathered together, and the air around them seemed to be frozen.
The expression on Kyle's face became a little strange.
How should I put it? This time the Death Eaters' attack on Hogwarts was more like a meeting with old friends.
There are still some giants left, there are still some werewolves left...and now it's the Dementors' turn?
But what’s the use of just a few of them?
Posing isn't enough.
Kyle didn't understand either. The Dementors had been cleared out twice. Why couldn't they just stay put?
Do they really think highly of Voldemort?
A jellyfish emitting silver light appeared behind Kyle. The Dementors wanted to run, but it was too late.
The jellyfish's long tentacles had wrapped around their necks at some point, and the Dementors were being dragged behind the jellyfish. From a distance, it looked like they were dragging a dozen ugly decorations.
Furthermore, under the influence of the Patronus, the Dementor's body began to shrink, collapse, and finally completely dissipate.
"This is finally completely resolved."
Kyle continued forward and this time he soon arrived at the Quidditch field.
This place also suffered devastating damage. The audience seats were reduced to ruins and all six goalposts were broken and lay scattered on the burning grass.
There was a person lying next to him...
"Kanna!" Kyle's heart beat faster and he ran over quickly, but soon stopped again.
He recognized the wrong person.
On the ground was a witch he didn't recognize, wearing a black robe, and probably also a Death Eater.
so far so good……
Kyle tried to calm himself down and looked around carefully. Finally, he found Sirius, who was staggering, and Connor, who was unconscious on his back, in the Slytherin audience seats.
Opposite him were a dozen Death Eaters in black robes.
"Sirius Black, you are so lucky." One of the Death Eaters grinned, "You have caused us a lot of trouble."
"As long as we kill you, we will definitely get the reward from the Dark Lord!"
"Stop talking nonsense and get started," a witch Death Eater urged.
"Why rush? There are twelve of us. He can't run away with this burden."
Another Death Eater said slowly, "I don't want to go to Hogwarts and die. It's so good now. As long as we can kill him, it will be a great achievement. There is no need to fight with those idiots."
"Yes." A Death Eater nodded in agreement, "And no one will come to help him now..."
"puff!"
The Death Eater's words stopped abruptly, as if something had passed across his neck, and then... the wind suddenly blew in the audience.
"Damn it, who is it?"
Before the Death Eaters around could react to what was happening, two more people were attacked.
A long wound appeared out of nowhere on their chest, as if someone had stabbed them.
"Oh no, it's a curse, kill Sirius!"
Some Death Eaters reacted, but the originally hard ground suddenly turned into a swamp and they all fell into it.
"The Divine Edge is Shadowless!"
As a gust of wind blew, the stadium suddenly became quiet.
Sirius looked at the person who appeared behind the Death Eater, sitting on the ground and gasping for breath.
"You're just in time...Kyle."
"Yeah, just in time," said Kyle, glancing behind Sirius and seeming to want to say something else.
"Oh, don't worry, Connor is fine," said Sirius.
But Kyle noticed that he was a little conflicted when he said this.
"I don't know how to tell you." Sirius put Connor down, "Snape knocked her out and entrusted her to me."
"I don't know how to describe this feeling. That snotty-smelling guy is obviously a Death Eater, but he actually entrusted his niece to the care of an enemy like me."
The more Sirius spoke, the weirder his expression became, as if his previous worldview had collapsed and he was in a state of confusion.
He had known about the relationship between Connor and Snape for a long time...it was not a secret, and many people knew it.
Moreover, he had complained to Lupin more than once about how that snotty-nosed Snape had the honor of having such an outstanding niece.
What Sirius didn't understand was Snape's attitude towards the Death Eaters. He seemed very afraid of them.
In his opinion, a normal Death Eater should be like the Malfoy family, where the adults are Death Eaters, the children are little Death Eaters, and the whole family are loyal supporters of Voldemort.
Even if their children don't think so, they will be forcibly dragged to Voldemort's side by their parents.
In fact, this is the case with most Slytherins. Those Death Eaters will do their best to prove their loyalty in every way they can think of.
But this common sense is different for Snape... He is a senior Death Eater, but he is very afraid that Connor will come into contact with Voldemort.
Sirius could feel that Snape did not want Voldemort to discover Connor's existence, and he was even willing to risk being killed in order to hand Connor over to him.
When Snape stood there, he was completely defenseless and even threw away his wand. Sirius could easily kill him if he had the idea.
But he hesitated... and watched Snape walk out of his sight.
Even thinking about it now, Sirius was so regretful that he was scratching the wall... Snape was the culprit who killed Lily and James, why did he feel soft-hearted at that time!
Kyle ignored Snape's changing expression and walked over to carefully check Connor's condition.
Just like Sirius said, Connor was fine, she was just under a coma spell...
and many more!
Kyle's hand suddenly stopped in mid-air.
He noticed that the bracelet on Kangna's right hand was missing.
It was a silver bracelet that looked like a phoenix with its head and tail connected, and its eyes were decorated with fragments of the magic stone.
But the material is not important. What is important is that the bracelet was given to Connor by Nicolas Flamel, and it can also resist two killing curses. Its value is simply beyond the measurement of Galleons.
Connor had been carrying it with her, but now it was gone.
It can’t be that it has been used up.
Kyle was a little unsure, and he wanted to try to wake Connor up, but he found that Snape not only used a stunning spell on her, but also fed her the water of life and death.
It's difficult to wake her up now. I can't go to the classroom to prepare the antidote now.
Kyle simply put Kanna in his box.
Sirius watched his actions from the side and asked, "Kyle, I noticed that you looked unhappy just now, what happened to Connor?"
"No, nothing. I just found out that she drank the water of life and death and she may not wake up in a short time." Kyle shook his head and did not explain the matter of the bracelet to Sirius.
