Chapter 307: Chapter 307 The balance of victory tilts back and forth
The scene in front of her made Amelia Bones look a little heavy.
Not only was the excessive number of enemies a threat to her, but the gathering of these dark creatures also proved that Voldemort's power had expanded again.
The dark camp would naturally favor powerful dark wizards like Voldemort, because dark wizards often have no scruples and will promise them extremely generous conditions.
Amelia is now very grateful that the Ministry of Magic has passed a resolution to cooperate with Count Dracula, winning over almost all vampires, as well as some werewolves headed by Lupin, and dividing a large number of dark creatures.
Otherwise, she really doesn't know how to stop the expansion of Voldemort's dark forces.
Of course, now is not the time to think about these things. How to escape from this large-scale attack is the most important thing.
"We will try to delay as much as possible," Amelia whispered to the Auror beside her, "James Lupin should be here with the werewolves soon, but they need some time to prepare; the vampires may be faster, maybe we still have a chance to wait for their support."
"We will protect your safety, Ms. Bones." The Auror Captain nodded and said to Amelia, "The Death Eaters should have been prepared and have arranged the anti-Apparition spell in advance. We can only take it step by step..."
"...According to the normal response method, we will follow the conventional means of the defense manual, first use protective magic to block, and then look for a way to break through the siege."
"Well, you do your own thing, don't worry about my safety." Amelia said calmly, "I know what is written in the Auror's defense manual."
The captain of the Auror team remembered that the current Minister of Magic was originally the Director of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement, and the Auror Office was under her jurisdiction. Of course, she knew how to cooperate with the Aurors' actions next.
So he put his mind at ease and raised his wand first-
"Protego totalum!"
The surrounding Aurors raised their wands with him, and a series of protective spells were chanted from their mouths:
"Protego Horribilis."
"Salvio Hexia."
"Fumos."
"..."
As the Aurors chanted spells one after another, a solid transparent barrier appeared around them, and a mist rose up quickly, blocking the sight of the Death Eaters and werewolves.
"These protective spells should be able to delay for a while, but they can't stop the Dementors." The Auror Captain quickly instructed his men around him, "Line up, the Aurors in the middle of the team are responsible for using the Patronus Charm to stop the Dementors, and the Aurors on the periphery are careful to guard against poisonous spells that are missed by the protective magic!"
Before he finished speaking, a dense rain of beatings fell on the protective shield, and the partially deformed sharp claws of the werewolf tore the barrier, making a harsh friction sound.
Then, the unique cold breath of the Dementors drilled in from the periphery, accompanied by a gloomy "crackling" sound, and negative emotions came to the face.
The Aurors who had been prepared quickly cast the Patronus Charm to form a silver barrier.
However, the threshold of the Patronus Charm was too high in the past. Most of these Aurors were not as good as the students Dracula trained casually at Hogwarts, and no Auror could use the complete version of the Patronus Charm.
These barriers were only formed by a piece of silver mist, and the best spells were just the prototypes of some animals.
One or two Dementors might be a little afraid of this Patronus Charm, but this time, almost all the Dementors who defected from the entire Azkaban Island came here.
Their dark auras combined together to create a considerable resistance to this incomplete Patronus.
As for the Aurors on the periphery, they need to concentrate all their attention to repair the shields that are broken or torn from time to time in time, and they are overwhelmed by the spells that penetrate the barrier and have no time to care about anything else.
Amelia sighed softly when she saw this scene.
"Forget it, just focus on dealing with spells and werewolves, and leave the Dementors to me." She said to the Aurors, "Have you found your shortcomings? If you can return to the Ministry safely, increase your training for me. Your strength is obviously not enough now!"
As she spoke, she raised her wand high.
A small silver badger jumped out from the tip of her wand, passed through the silver barrier jointly constructed by the Aurors, ran in the air, and rushed towards the group of Dementors.
The full version of the Patronus Charm is indeed the nemesis of Dementors. This group of dark creatures subconsciously began to hide away from the silver badger... Under Amelia's control, the badger quickly expelled the Dementors from the protective magic.
After eliminating the threat of Dementors, most Aurors breathed a sigh of relief and turned to concentrate on blocking the attacks of Death Eaters and werewolves.
The scene was deadlocked for a while.
"This won't work. Staying in one place will only limit our own steps." The Auror Captain frowned and said solemnly, "They can call for other reinforcements at any time, and we are trapped here without any supplies."
"Well, be prepared to break out." Amelia nodded, "The magic level of the werewolves here is mostly average, and they can be used as a breakthrough point."
"I know." The Auror Captain nodded.
He carefully explained the precautions to the other Aurors around him, and then they quickly lined up and opened a hole in the protective shield from the direction of the werewolves.
Most of the werewolves were still tearing at the shield frantically, and suddenly there was no resistance in front of them, which made them stumble.
The next moment, a waterfall-like spell gushed out from the opening of the shield, instantly defeating a large number of half-beast werewolves.
Then, Amelia followed a group of Aurors, casting light body spells and speed-up spells on herself, while quickly passing through the crowd and running out of the fog created by the smoke screen spell.
While the Death Eaters and the dark creatures they allied with had not yet reacted, they almost broke through the encirclement and approached the boundary set by the anti-apparition spell...
However, Amelia and the others stopped at the last moment.
"That group of rubbish is really unreliable, and they can't even deal with a few Aurors!" A crazy witch stopped in front of them and cursed with dissatisfaction.
Behind her stood a group of wizards in gray and black robes. Both their attire and behavior proved their identity-the core group of Death Eaters.
"Bellatrix, why are you here?" Yaxley rushed up from the back and asked the leading witch.
"You are useless!" Bellatrix cursed, "The Dark Lord called us here to do the finishing work to ensure that everything is foolproof. Who knew that so many of you couldn't even control their people?"
Yaxley looked a little ugly.
Of course, Amelia and the Aurors led by the Auror Captain looked even uglier.
The Aurors had never thought that Voldemort would attach so much importance to the new Minister of Magic that almost all the core Death Eaters would be dispatched...
And Amelia knew more. She knew that the person Voldemort attached importance to was not her, the Minister of Magic, but Dracula, who had disrupted his plans several times.
The alliance between the Ministry of Magic and Dracula was something Voldemort did not want to see, so he had to ensure that this operation was foolproof!
After being blocked by Bellatrix and other Death Eaters for only a moment, the werewolves, Dementors and other dark creatures behind caught up again, forming a more solid encirclement than the last time.
Moreover, after the addition of the core Death Eaters, the opponent's cutting-edge forces completely surpassed Amelia and the captain of the Auror team, and the Ministry of Magic fell into a complete disadvantage.
"How do you want to escape now, Bones?" Bellatrix smiled nervously and said to Amelia, "I advise you to surrender now, maybe you can suffer less torture."
"Okay." Amelia also smiled kindly and slowly raised her hands.
Bella was stunned for a moment, as if she didn't expect that the newly appointed Minister of Magic would be more spineless than Fudge.
However, the next moment, Amelia, who had raised her hands halfway, suddenly waved her wand violently, and a dazzling red spell instantly shot towards Bellatrix.
Bella fell to the side in a panic, barely avoiding Amelia's coma spell, but another Death Eater behind her was hit and fell to the ground.
"Damn bitch, you dare to play tricks on me!" Bella screamed and stood up from the ground and wanted to rush to Amelia.
But the Auror Captain stood in front of her first.
"Ms. Bones, we will stop them here, you find a chance to leave!" He said loudly.
Amelia also knew that this was not the time to shirk responsibility, so she nodded and walked around Bella's side, and the wand in her hand continued to release powerful light.
Few of the core Death Eaters could receive her spell, and she broke through the obstacles in front of her and came to the end of the Death Eater team...
Just when Amelia was about to Apparate to evacuate first, and then call more Death Eaters back to rescue the Auror team, a masked figure stood in front of her.
"Get out of the way!" Amelia shouted.
At the same time, a sharp petrification spell was shot at the masked Death Eater.
However, unlike the previous unstoppable effect, this spell was easily deflected by the masked Death Eater, and then another spell was shot from his wand at Amelia.
Amelia's eyes became serious, realizing that she had met a top-notch dark wizard.
The spells were stirred back and forth, and the two people quickly fought several times. Amelia became more and more frightened... She found that the Death Eater on the opposite side was not weaker than her strength, and was even stronger.
There were only a few Death Eaters with such strength, and they were all on the list that Lucius Malfoy gave to the Ministry of Magic.
However, Amelia had no way to match the person in front of her with the Death Eaters on the list...
"Wait, you are...?!"
Suddenly, Amelia opened her eyes wide.
Lucius did give out a name, but that name was guaranteed by Dumbledore, so it was excluded... However, the Death Eater guaranteed by Dumbledore can completely match the masked man in front of him!
Seeing Amelia's expression, the masked Death Eater frowned.
He seized Amelia's flaw and cast another fierce coma spell.
Amelia was shocked and did not react in time. When she wanted to recite the spell to resist, it was too late...
At the critical moment, a man with a goatee appeared in front of Amelia, and he opened a pair of black wings behind him, blocking the masked Death Eater's spell behind him.
"Are you okay, Ms. Bones?" the man asked.
"I'm fine." Amelia let go of her worries and looked at the winged goatee man in front of her. "You are... Count Dracula's subordinate, Mr. Tesla?"
"I'm glad you still remember me." Tesla smiled and retracted his wings. "I was waiting for Mr. Lupin and his team to act together in Romania. I was delayed for a while and came late."
"Leave it to us next!"
Then he looked at the sky that was suddenly blocked by heavy clouds - that was the weather spell that Lupin cast to facilitate the vampires to act during the day.
In the sky, countless wings flapped, almost covering the sky.
Countless vampires landed from the sky and met the group of enemies who belonged to the dark camp.
And the werewolves led by Lupin also found those werewolves who were self-degrading and associated with the black wizards, and taught them a lesson with the mentality of cleaning up the door.
Unlike the werewolves who voluntarily transformed themselves into half-beasts to increase their strength and also increased their brutality, the werewolves led by Lupin were fighting for the same dream, working hard to live in a magical world that does not discriminate against werewolves in the future.
They all held wands and dressed appropriately, which formed a sharp contrast with the werewolves who were half-dressed and had scarlet eyes. If you don't know clearly, you might think it was a group of Aurors teaching a mad werewolf a lesson.
A handsome and tall vampire landed in front of Amelia, retracted his wings, and greeted her.
"Long time no see, Ms. Bones." He smiled, "How are Susan and the others doing recently?"
"Cedric? It's been a while since I last saw you." Amelia saw the boy in front of her and smiled happily, "Susan and your Hufflepuff friends are all doing well. It seems that you are living well in Dracula Castle?"
"Well, Professor Dracula takes good care of me, and other vampires are also very friendly... Of course, I think it's because of Professor Dracula's face." Cedric smiled, "But now is not the time to reminisce, let's get rid of those Death Eaters first!"
"Of course!" Amelia nodded gently and raised her wand again.
The situation on the field seemed to change in an instant, and the balance of victory gradually tilted towards Amelia and the others...
