Chapter 659: First Battle

Boom, boom, boom, boom. Just less than ten minutes after the sky darkened, several rays of light of different colors shot out from the woods outside Hogsmeade and hit a wall and the surrounding ground. The ground was blasted into several big holes, and the wall that was hit was also blown out a big hole, and then collapsed.

This blow was like a starting gun, and in an instant, a large number of spells of various colors filled the entire sky. Even though the previous analysis inferred that the attacking Hogsmeade Town should not be the opponent's main personnel, but now the situation does not seem so easy, from time to time you can hear the sound of something breaking or collapsing, and even Ryan saw the entrance of Hogsmeade Town A big tree was set on fire by magic, burning like a torch.

It seems that everyone can still support it. After looking at the current situation on the second floor for a while, Hermione roughly discovered the problem. There are fifty or sixty wizards attacking Hogsmeade. They are divided into three squads and trying to attack Hogsmeade from three directions. Seriously, we are in real trouble if they divide into a few more squads now. , Those strikers and volunteers on our side have no way to fight in small groups.

Do you think this group of attacking Death Eaters don't want to fight in small groups? Ryan said after careful observation. It's just that they can't do it. Don't look at the lively fight outside, but from the messy spell lights, it can be seen that the attacking group of black wizards is also very low in organization. If they really engage in a small team assault It may be completely dispersed, and once the battle is turned into a chaotic battle, it will be even more detrimental to their attacking side.

After explaining, Ryan and Hermione went down to the first floor. At this time, a treatment room was vacated on the first floor, and Penello prepared a lot of potions and the talisman papers that Ryan gave him in advance, ready to rescue the wounded at any time.

Are you leaving now? Seeing Ryan and Hermione walking down the stairs, Penello looked up at the two of them and asked. Lupine and the others are already waiting in the backyard.

Yes, we're going. Hermione nodded to Penello. If you stay here, you should also pay attention to safety. In case something goes wrong, you can go to the secret room below. The magic prepared by Ryan and I is enough to protect your safety.

Understood, I wish you all the best today. When Ryan and the others opened the door and walked towards the backyard, Penello raised his wand on his chest and gave a solemn wizard salute and said.

In the backyard, twelve werewolves were already waiting here. After seeing Ryan coming out, Lupine came up and asked, Ryan, where should we go now?

The opposite side of Hogsmeade's main road is against the Black Lake, and there are no enemies coming over there... Ryan said after thinking for a while. Hogsmeade Station is relatively close to the Ministry of Magic, and it is also between the town and Hogwarts Castle. There should be no help for the time being. There are Percy and the others at the entrance of the village. It seems that they are doing well now. No matter how many enemies there are in the terrain, the enemy will not be able to deploy.

So we jumped out from the back wall and advanced into the forest, and then cleared out the group of enemies parallel to the back wall under the cover of trees. Finally, Ryan made a decision.

Okay, let's go now. After finishing speaking, Lupine led the werewolves who were still in wolf shape and jumped out of the wall, and then Ryan and Hermione also leaned against the corner of the wall to get out of the wall Inside out.

A few seconds after turning over from the wall of the backyard, Ryan and the others ran into the woods more than ten meters away. Under the cover of night, the group of Death Eaters more than 100 meters away didn't notice them at all, and they were still shooting magic with the Hogsmeade guards back and forth.

As soon as he entered the woods, Ryan immediately came under a tree and stretched out his hand on the tree. After launching the natural perception, Ryan quickly sensed the number and distribution of the enemies in the forest from the big tree.

There are 17 Death Eaters in the woods, and their distribution is probably— Ryan cleared a piece of ground by the moonlight and began to draw the approximate distribution of the enemies on the ground with his wand.

And the werewolves turned into human figures and surrounded them. Now they and the group of townspeople in the town are in a stalemate. We can go around from behind them and give them a fatal blow.

After speaking, Ryan turned his head to the group of werewolves. Now this is a real war, so I hope you will put aside your usual kindness and use deadly force in the battle.

We understand, said the ex-Auror William, stepping out. Kindness and mercy are for those on our side. Victory can only be ensured by going all out in the face of the enemy. Please rest assured that we have been living in the dark side of the wizarding world since we became werewolves. We know that in this situation How should it be done?

Okay, then it's up to the two of us to clean up the three people who are guarding the back road. Ryan looked at the werewolves who raised their wands, I will send you a signal after we finish the cleanup, and receive my Signal you to attack them from the side of the enemy with all your strength.

After seeing all the werewolves nodding their heads to show their understanding, Ryan and Hermione climbed up the tree with the hook rope, and then ran lightly and quietly on the branches with the hook rope. At the same time, the werewolves also changed back to the form of wolves At high speed, it moved under the tree to where the enemy was.

It was summer now, and the trees in this forest were lush with leaves, perfectly covering the figures of Ryan and Hermione. Soon the two came to the diagonally above the post set up by the attackers.

From a certain point of view, the layout of this post is more scientific. One dark and two bright three posts can basically observe the situation behind the attacker. Especially the dark whistle standing on a tree with a cat body and wearing an invisibility cloak. If Ryan hadn't been able to communicate and naturally knew in advance, ordinary wizards would have no way to determine his location.

However, after being discovered, the defect of the inconvenient movement of the secret sentry position was fully revealed. Ryan and Hermione used the disillusionment spell to approach the tree where the dark post was located, and easily destroyed the surrounding warning spells. After that, Hermione suddenly fired a gray ball at the dark post.

At the same time, Ryan launched the finger of death that he had prepared. With the tacit cooperation of the two people, the two spells hit the secret whistle on the tree at the same time. Ryan's magic killed the Dark Whistle on the spot, and Hermione's gray ball quickly turned into a transparent net covering the Dark Whistle, blocking all possible transmission of magical information.

After secretly touching the dark whistle, it would be effortless for Ryan to kill the two bright whistles. In particular, this group of Death Eaters put their main energy on the dark whistle, and the bright whistle is more like a symbol.

For example, the two bright sentries who should be patrolling separately in theory are now gathering together to warm up around a purple fire, not paying much attention to the surrounding situation at all. Even when the two of Ryan and the others appeared on the tree above their heads, they didn't realize that something was wrong. Instead, they were roasting the meat of some small animal on the flame. This Ryan and his raid created extremely favorable conditions.

Five seconds later, two cold lights flashed, and all the sentries were cleared. After checking to make sure there was no fourth post, Ryan sent a signal to the group of werewolves.

Lupine and the others had already ambushed nearby, so they passed the tree where Ryan and the others were in just a few seconds after receiving the signal and rushed forward. Soon, there was a curse explosion and exclamation in front of them. the sound of. The group of Death Eaters who were attacking Hogsmeade really didn't expect that someone would be able to touch the place so close to them without the slightest warning effect from their carefully arranged warning circle, and they were beaten for a while. Everyone is in a hurry.

Let's take part in the action too! Seeing the chaotic battle ahead, Ryan and Hermione looked at each other and nodded, and then the two jumped from the branches at the same time and rushed towards the battlefield.
