The Alchemist of Harry Potter

Chapter 1,239 Unexpected Betrayal

Late at night, the Room of Requirement.

Draco Malfoy was sitting in a tattered armchair, holding a double-sided mirror in his hand, and was quietly updating Bella on the other side of the mirror.

Through Bella, he got information from the nails buried by Death Eaters in the Ministry of Magic. Dumbledore is currently in Azkaban Prison, discussing with the Minister of Magic Scrimgeour how to deal with Voldemort's possible prison break.

Draco knew that he had to wait until Dumbledore returned to Hogwarts before taking action. He believed that by then they would have a greater advantage when facing the old man who was physically and mentally exhausted after a busy day.

After all, the opponent is Dumbledore, no matter how cautious he is, there is nothing wrong.

Draco waited for a long time, until late at night, and when everyone went back to rest, he finally learned from Bella that Dumbledore had left Azkaban and returned to Hogwarts.

With the gentle nudge of the elixir, Draco knew that the best time had come and it was time for them to act.

Bella's reaction was quick. After a while, there were some noises in the disappearing cabinet. Draco knew that someone was coming through the disappearing cabinet, and he quickly stepped back to make more space for the other party.

A few seconds later, the door of the disappearing cabinet opened, and Bella walked out of the disappearing cabinet. She did not wear the mask used by Death Eaters to hide her identity, and her face did not hide her malice.

"Welcome to Hogwarts, Aunt Bella."

Watching the masked Death Eaters coming out of the disappearing cabinet one after another, Malfoy couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Although Snape was the core of the entire plan, the more people there were, the more he could feel at ease. Maybe They were able to kill Dumbledore with their numerical superiority.

However, what surprised Malfoy was that there were many unfamiliar faces in this group of Death Eaters, most likely new Death Eaters or dark wizards hired with money.

In order for this assassination operation to proceed smoothly, both the Malfoy family and the Lestrange family paid a large amount of galleons as compensation.

Although many Death Eaters are not short of Galleons, there are still some who need this Galleons.

Draco nodded slightly to everyone, formally saying hello, and then began to describe the original plan and the next action plan.

"Where is Snape?"

Alecto looked around, and when he didn't see Snape, he couldn't help but laugh at himself: "It seems that that guy really planned to use us as bait from the beginning."

"Snape must have his own plan. We'd better not force him to participate, so as not to disrupt his plan." Avery had a good relationship with Snape, and he also knew very well that this plan would succeed. It is possible to rely on Snape's sneak attacks.

"Quiet! We never counted on that coward Snape from the beginning!" Bella roared at the noisy crowd. She was very irritated now because this plan did not go as smoothly as expected. The disappearance of her sister Narcissa directly caused the loss of the elixir she originally obtained. She even suspected that her sister had given away the only bottle of elixir she had obtained. Draco was too embarrassed to go back and face them.

"According to the original plan, we need to separate a group of people to surround and kill Dumbledore, and the rest of the people will hold off the school professors to buy a chance to surround and kill Dumbledore." Bella said the most important thing tonight. Important matter.

No one would be foolish enough to think that Dumbledore would take on everyone here single-handedly.

Of course, this is not a difficult matter, and we have already discussed it before coming here.

When he saw Bella take out the Felixir from her robe pocket and take a small sip, Malfoy realized something and reached out to take out the remaining Felixir from his pocket.

"As expected, Narcissa gave you the only bottle of elixir she got."

Avery smiled and took the potion from Draco, drank some and handed it to Alecto next to him, "However, this Felixir should be enough, and we don't need to be lucky for too long."

Of course, there was not enough elixir for everyone to take a sip, but it was enough for the Death Eaters who were surrounding Dumbledore.

Their actions went smoothly, perhaps because the elixir of blessing took effect, or perhaps because it was already night and everyone had gone to bed to rest. The group arrived at the astronomy tower without encountering any obstacles.

"Let's start!" Avery looked at Malfoy and reminded: "After the dark wizards outside see your Dark Mark, they will launch an attack from the main entrance of Hogwarts to help us attract the attention of others. Force, after we kill Dumbledore, leave from the direction of the Forbidden Forest, because we don’t know whether the Aurors from the Ministry of Magic will reinforce Hogwarts, and the whole plan is based on the fact that the Ministry of Magic will reinforce Hogwarts. .”

"You need to wait here for Dumbledore later, help us attract the old guy's attention, create the illusion that you are the only one here, and create an opportunity for us to sneak attack Dumbledore. Although the probability of success is not high, we must try Just for a moment, it's okay!" Alecto then said to Malfoy.

"No problem, then I'll start!" After Malfoy nodded to show that he understood, he raised his wand and pointed to the sky.

"Reappearance of Bones"

Although he had never actually used this spell, with the help of Felixir, he could easily use it.

A green light flew out from the tip of the wand and turned into a huge green skull smoke in the air.

Looking at the Dark Mark flying higher and higher above Hogwarts Castle, Draco couldn't help but murmured: "This will definitely be a big surprise for Dumbledore who has just returned!"

Dumbledore didn't keep Draco waiting for long, and his appearance was even beyond Draco's expectations. He didn't come up the stairs, but appeared out of thin air with a ray of fire. There was a phoenix beside the old man, looking at him with a smile: "Good evening, Draco."

Draco said nothing, his eyes fixed on Dumbledore.

"It's very late now. You should go back to the dormitory to rest instead of blowing the wind here."

Dumbledore ignored the boy's vigilance and hostility, looked up at the Dark Mark above his head, and said softly: "Being a Death Eater is not a good choice."

With that said, the old man raised his wand and lightly dismissed Draco's disarming spell. He looked at the fearless boy in front of him and said, "Voldemort has always lacked wisdom. At least I don't think it is a good choice to let an underage wizard assassinate me. , he obviously wants to kill you, you should know this very well."

"I have no choice," Draco said, staring intently at Dumbledore.

"I know you accepted that task, and I understand your situation. I can help you make the right choice before you do something irreversible." Dumbledore comforted softly.

"I won't be at your mercy." Malfoy shook his head.

"Why don't you listen to my proposal?" Dumbledore said in a reassuring tone, "I can convince Stringer to hide your family in a safe place where even Voldemort can't find him. It’s up to you, until this Wizarding War is over. Believe me, it won’t be long before Voldemort will be completely finished. You should also have noticed that in the past year, the Death Eaters have suffered heavy losses, and even Voldemort has to tuck his tail between his legs. Be human.”

"Really? But...why?"

Draco suddenly fell silent, because Dumbledore didn't lie, but he didn't understand why Dumbledore wanted to help him and a Death Eater.

"Of course it's true. Voldemort can't be my and Albert's opponent. They will soon... suffer heavy losses." Dumbledore suddenly waved his wand towards the entrance, killing Bella and her group who were preparing for a sneak attack. Forced to reveal himself.

"Good evening, Bella. Oh, you actually brought a group of people to kill me." Dumbledore's tone was very calm, as if he was welcoming the other party to a tea party, "However, if I were you, I would definitely I will tread lightly!"

"Isolated, old fellow, you're doomed." Bella raised her wand and pointed at Dumbledore, sneering.

"Isolated and helpless? You probably haven't realized that you are actually the one who is isolated and helpless. This thing is a trap from beginning to end!" Dumbledore did not panic at all because he was surrounded by Death Eaters. Instead, he said in a relaxed and cheerful tone He said, "Who do you think suggested that you come to Hogwarts to kill me? Who do you think provided the vanishing cabinet? Who do you think repaired the vanishing cabinet?"

"This is impossible."

Draco still couldn't help but break his guard. He looked at Dumbledore in shock and told him directly that the other party didn't lie and that he had been at his mercy from the beginning.

"Nothing is impossible. Snape has been mine from the beginning, and reinforcements are already on the way. None of you can escape tonight." Dumbledore stood there with his wand raised, as if you are all trapped by me. Surrounding posture.

"You're using me?"

Malfoy read dark magic to Dumbledore viciously.

However, Dumbledore easily subdued Malfoy, "You're not ready to kill yet, kid, don't let yourself fall."

"Get him out of here, Severus."

Snape appeared out of nowhere, used magic to catch the controlled Draco, and prepared to take him out of here.

The sudden change stunned the Death Eaters who came to surround Dumbledore.

Didn't it mean that Snape was from their side?

Didn't it mean that Snape signed an unbreakable contract with Narcissa?

Didn't it mean that Snape planned to take the opportunity to assassinate Dumbledore?

But now it was Snape who betrayed them and led them all into the trap carefully crafted by Dumbledore.

Narcissa's sudden disappearance.

Could it be that even her sister betrayed the Dark Lord and joined Dumbledore?

"You damn traitors."

Anger almost overflowed from Bella's eyes, and she fired a fatal black magic directly at Snape, but Snape deflected it with a spell.

"Your opponent is not me." Snape took Draco out of the battlefield.

"The Dark Lord will not let you go easily," Bella growled at Snape.

"Ignore Snape, now is the best opportunity for us, do it!"

Both Alecto and Avery realized something and directly called other Death Eaters to surround Dumbledore.

They have no choice. Once other professors get involved, it may be difficult to have such a good opportunity again.

The Death Eaters stood close together, forming the tight formation most commonly used by the Ministry of Magic, with all their wands pointed at Dumbledore.

"kill him."

The colorful dark curses all shrouded Dumbledore's position, completely sealing off all the spaces he could dodge.

This is the human sea battle often used by the Aurors of the Ministry of Magic, relying on numerical superiority to defeat the enemy, but the Death Eaters are now forced to use it against Dumbledore.

The breath of death rushed towards his face, but Dumbledore did not panic at all. Fox, who was flying above everyone's heads, suddenly swooped down from the sky and withstood the first wave of Death Eaters' attacks for Dumbledore.

Fox let out a cry of grief, fell heavily to the ground, burned up, and turned into a pile of ashes.

Dumbledore seized the opportunity created by his old friend, and swung his wand into the air. A strong force hit the Death Eaters, forcing them to give up their attack and instead defend together against Dumbledore's unknown spell.

There was a loud bang, as if something collided together, making people want to cover their ears.

The supposedly indestructible magical barrier actually had cracks, causing all the Death Eaters who had successfully blocked the spell to gasp.

Fortunately, they chose to believe Felixir's warning.

However, before they could recover, the magic barrier was directly penetrated by a golden spell. An unlucky guy was hit by the spell, and all his strength was drained instantly. He fell straight back, not knowing whether he was alive or dead. .

Everyone was shocked. They probably didn't expect Dumbledore to strike directly. The golden curse just now made their scalps numb.

spread!

I don't know who shouted, causing the Death Eaters to stop maintaining a tight formation and attack Dumbledore separately.

If they hadn't been so close together just now, the unlucky guy would have been able to escape the golden spell with the help of the elixir.

However, this is undoubtedly a wrong instruction.

By uniting tightly together, they might have a chance to replace Dumbledore. When the Death Eaters dispersed, they would be no match for Dumbledore.

Dumbledore was always able to use dexterity befitting his age to avoid the fatal spells used by Bella. He even quickly shook his wand and fired several spells, which directly missed the spells of other dark wizards.

Just when the sneak attack was about to succeed, Dumbledore, as if he had eyes, gently used his wand to brush aside the dark magic.

"How can this be!"

After seeing that his sneak attack was easily seen through and the black magic was easily deflected, the Death Eater couldn't accept it. There was a brief shock on his face, and then Dumbledore caught the flaw. The cloak suddenly rolled back to cover his head, as if it had come alive, and the robe tightened even more like it had come to life, tightly binding his whole body like a belt.

After just one encounter, one Death Eater temporarily lost his fighting power.

Although the Fuling Elixir can greatly improve the user in all aspects, it still cannot make up for the huge gap between the two parties.

What's more, the place Malfoy chose was not suitable for them to perform.

The Observatory can indeed take advantage of their numerical advantage. Find Shuyuan www.zhaoshuyuan.com, but the premise is that they must take advantage and use their numerical advantage to attack the enemy.

However, the current situation was clearly one in which Dumbledore had the advantage, causing the number of people that was originally an advantage to become a liability, because the limited space was not conducive to them dodging spells, resulting in the advantage given by the Felixir being weakened by more than half.

A certain Death Eater seemed to want to rush down and seek help from the Death Eaters who were responsible for intercepting reinforcements below, but was hit from behind by a spell and fell down the stairs.

In fact, even now it was too late for rescue, because there was a sudden commotion below the astronomy tower. Apparently, the school professors were fighting with the Death Eaters below.

boom! boom! boom!

A deafening explosion suddenly sounded, and dense fireballs flew towards Hogwarts in the distance, slamming into the iron gate outside the school, almost knocking it off.

"It's really lively." Dumbledore glanced in the direction of the school entrance and murmured, "It seems like this net will catch more fish than expected."
