Chapter 465: Killing Curse
Chapter 465: Killing Curse
As soon as Mr. Weasley finished speaking, everyone who had already packed their belongings rushed out of the tent.
The celebratory parade had disappeared, and screams of panic filled the air, turning the entire camp into chaos.
The sky was shrouded in darkness, as if all the stars were covered by a massive black fog, creating an incredibly oppressive atmosphere.
In the distance, a group of people hurriedly ran towards the woods, while behind them, another group of hooded figures moved calmly.
Everyone wore hoods, their faces hidden by masks, making it impossible to identify them. The only certainty was that they were not good people.
Who in their right mind would go out masked in the middle of the night, burning tents... They would destroy anything that stood in their way, regardless of what it was.
"You all, get into the woods quickly!" Mr. Weasley shouted, "Bill, keep an eye on them, don't let them get separated..."
Before he could finish his sentence, he turned to see Bill, Charlie, and Percy already running towards the approaching parade.
Mr. Weasley also hurried to catch up, saying without turning back, "You guys, go into the woods. The Aurors have already searched there, it's safe... Remember, don't get separated!"
The group nodded and immediately ran into the woods.
When they looked back after entering the woods, they found that the parade had grown even larger.
It wasn't just the mysterious wizards wearing hoods; many spectators had also joined them.
These people were foreign wizards, so they completely disregarded the warnings of the Ministry of Magic staff. Some didn't even bother to cover their faces, openly displaying their malicious intentions.
And there were too many of them; the small number of Ministry personnel sent for support was nowhere near enough.
Soon, the original parade turned into a full-blown riot. Many took advantage of the empty tents to loot them or even carry them away.
"No, we have to help Dad!" Fred and George watched as the rioting crowd grew larger, feeling anxious and eager to go over there.
"No!" Ginny grabbed them, "They're all adult wizards, you going won't help, it'll only cause more trouble!"
"Who says so!" Fred struggled to free himself from her grip, "Even if we're not strong enough, we still have Stink Pellets and Itching Powder."
George tried to pry Ginny's hand away, "Trust us, sometimes these things are more useful than magic!"
"Oh, you're here!"
As they argued, a person suddenly staggered towards them from a distance.
Kyle and Cedric were the first to draw their wands and point them at the stranger.
"It's me, Arthur asked me to look after you."
The man emerged from the woods, wearing a rough tweed suit and a pair of tall rubber boots.
"Are you the Ministry of Magic staff member in charge of registration?" Cedric frowned, "Isn't your name Basil?"
He remembered this outfit.
When they first arrived here through the Portkey, they had seen him.
"Yes, it's me." The man said, "I met Arthur, and he told me that those people's target is Harry Potter, so he asked me to look after you."
"What, they're after me?" Harry said in disbelief.
This was ridiculous. He had only watched a Quidditch match and done nothing else, so why would they be after him? It didn't make sense.
"They're all Death Eaters, and they're here to avenge the Dark Lord." The man walked quickly towards them, extending his hand, "The Aurors are all looking for you now, come with me, I'll take you to Scrimgrub."
Upon hearing the Dark Lord, Harry immediately thought of the face that had grown on Quirrell's head in his first year, and subconsciously took two steps forward.
However, the next second...
"Stun!"
"Avada..."
With a loud bang, the man was hit by a bright light and flew over ten feet, landing on the ground motionless. The green light that had just appeared at the tip of his wand also dissipated.
Everything happened so fast that, to this point, no one had reacted.
"What just happened...?" Harry retreated two steps, still shaken.
"Obviously, someone wants you dead." Kyle put away his wand, cautiously scanning the surroundings.
"But, wasn't he a Ministry of Magic staff member?" Harry asked, puzzled.
"He used to be.
”Kyle said, "Polyjuice Potion, Imperius Curse... It's just a matter of borrowing his identity. It's too simple."
"How do you know he has a problem." Cedric picked up the wand that had fallen on the ground.
To be honest, before the person used the Killing Curse, he didn't notice anything wrong at all.
"It's simple." Kyle said, "If those people's goal is really Harry, Mr. Weasley will definitely come in person, instead of asking a Ministry of Magic staff member we've only met once."
He's not even an Auror... Letting an ordinary person protect the most dangerous target figure, this doesn't make sense."
Cedric opened his mouth, didn't speak, including everyone else was the same... Obviously, they didn't think of this at all.
"Thank you..." Harry said with a lingering fear, "You saved my life."
"Don't say these." Kyle shook his head, "The urgent task at hand is to leave quickly..."
He didn't finish speaking, a dazzling green light suddenly flashed, illuminating half of the camp.
This green light they were too familiar with, was the Killing Curse that almost killed Harry just now...
It's just that this time the Killing Curse was not aimed at them, but appeared in the direction of the camp.
Everyone immediately turned their heads to look.
The rioting team fell silent for a moment... Then, the entire camp seemed to be like a lit barrel of gunpowder, instantly exploded.
The uncensored version is in the 69th book! 6=9+book_bar first release of the novel.
The howls and screams were several times louder than before, and all kinds of magic uncontrollably spread in all directions. Even in the woods, they could vaguely hear a roar of rage or terror.
"...Damn Ministry of Magic, how dare you use the Killing Curse!"
The rioting team was completely chaotic, some wanted to run, some lost their minds, and started indiscriminate attacks. All kinds of colored spells almost illuminated the entire camp! Fred and George wanted to run over again, but this time not only Ginny, Cedric and Autumn also rushed forward, grabbing their arms.
Kyle looked at the colorful camp, and felt that something was wrong.
First, the Ministry of Magic staff wanted to assassinate Harry, and then used the Killing Curse on the rioting crowd... This is too strange.
The Ministry of Magic staff couldn't assassinate Harry, nor could they actively use the Killing Curse. This is beyond doubt.
But they did, and twice in a row.
"This is intentional, wanting to frame the Ministry of Magic!" Kyle immediately thought of a possibility.
Obviously, someone wanted to intensify the conflict... No matter who that person is, from the current situation, he succeeded!
"Boom!"
A spell flew from the direction of the camp, and a large pit was blasted out on the ground not far from them.
The gravel and dirt splashed everyone.
"The Death Eaters are preparing to attack the Ministry of Magic!" Kyle's heart jumped.
If it was just causing trouble, the Ministry of Magic might let it go because of the large number of participants, but now the Killing Curse has come out. Even if it's Fudge, he won't just let it go.
A Killing Curse appeared in a place with ten thousand wizards. If there's no explanation for this, his Minister position is over.
"Boom!" Another spell.
There's no time to think, Kyle immediately drew his wand, and at the same time took the box from the Transfigured Lizard Hide Bag, his fingers pressed on the lock, opening it.
"You, all get in!"
"What?" Ron looked at the small box opening, "Kyle, are you kidding, how can we possibly get into such a small box..."
"Don't waste time!"
Kyle didn't have time to explain so much to them, and directly went forward to grab Ron's shoulder, and forcefully...
Ron was pulled and stumbled, his whole body uncontrollably fell forward, and he fell exactly on the opened box.
"You..."
The next second, Ron's whole person disappeared.
A clinking sound came from the box, as well as Ron's moan, he seemed to have bumped into something.
"Quickly, next one!" Kyle shouted.
Hermione was the first to react.
She remembered that before the break, Kyle had taken the Devil's Snare out of this box, trapping Professor Lupin who had turned into a werewolf... At that time, he also said that the space in the box was a little bigger than it looked.
But Hermione never thought that the so-called bigger, could actually fit a person.
