The Hogwarts Emerald

Chapter 447 Survival from desperate situation
The air became increasingly hotter and hotter, making it unbearable. The suffocating feeling brought by the increasingly thin air made Ada feel as if her heart and lungs were about to explode.

Gradually, the idea of ​​letting go came into Ada's mind. Let go, just let go, the flames would stop and she would be able to breathe more air.

However, Ada didn't dare to let go, instead she held the wand even tighter with both hands.

Because Ada knew that if she chose to let go at this moment, she would be buried in the sea of ​​fire in the next second, and not even ashes would be left.

In mid-air, the blue Chimera and the black fiery basilisk no longer collided with each other. Instead, they were entangled in one another, yet clearly separated. The two unextinguished flames continued to emit billowing heat waves.

The flames were raging, the magic power was intertwined, and the situation before them was no different from two people fighting hand to hand. If one of them let go first, the flames he cast might be assimilated by the other party, giving the other party a chance to strangle him.

Even if his magic fire could not be assimilated, the uncontrolled fierce fire would become more troublesome, many times more troublesome than it is now.

Voldemort's heart was filled with rage, and half of the reason why the duel had reached this point was due to his arrogance and hubris.

In his own mind, Voldemort had placed Ada in a very high position, but now he found that he still underestimated the girl's strength.

The two had only met once, and Ada's performance in the Triwizard Tournament was also relayed by Barty Jr. Voldemort knew too little about Ada. Insufficient information led to Voldemort making two consecutive misjudgments.

Even Voldemort himself, when he was Ada's age, did not reach the heights that Ada had reached. This situation seemed impossible to Voldemort.

This is because Voldemort is more skilled now, so he can continue to stalemate with Ada. If Ada was replaced by Dumbledore, these two mistakes would be enough for the headmaster to beat him to a pulp.

However, if Ada had really been replaced by Dumbledore, Voldemort would not have underestimated his opponent, and these two mistakes would not have occurred.

Voldemort mobilized his magic power to keep the black flame burning while thinking about countermeasures. After a while, Voldemort thought of something and silently unlocked the anti-apparition restriction.

The restrictions were removed and Voldemort could leave at any time. He was confident in his Apparition ability.

However, Voldemort still wanted to kill Ada tonight, and he had thought of a way to kill her, but he was still a little hesitant because one of the consequences of this method was something he was unwilling to bear.

Voldemort had just regained a body tonight, and even though he was not satisfied with this body, he still did not want to risk losing it by trying it.

Ada had no idea what the wicked and smoking Voldemort was thinking. She had her own thoughts in mind, although the thin air made her thinking process a little slow.

The wand became hotter and hotter, constantly burning Ada's palms. She needed to come up with a solution as soon as possible to break the current deadlock.

Unlike Voldemort, who had great murderous intent, Ada was already very satisfied to be able to fight the powerful Dark Lord to this extent. So her ideas were different from Voldemort's, and she only wanted to get out of the battle safely.

Ada set her sights on the blood-red gem hidden in the ring. This gem could heal serious injuries and perhaps save her life in this sea of ​​fire.

Thinking of this, Ada narrowed her eyes, estimated the scope of the sea of ​​fire, and planned her escape route.

The blazing flames caused visual deviation in people's eyes, which made it difficult for Ada to implement the method she came up with. Ada wanted to use the flash skill at the moment of letting go, so that the flash skill could take her out of danger.

But the problem is that the flashing has a distance limit, and Ada needs to reduce the error as much as possible to get herself out of the sea of ​​fire, or at least out of the center range.

Once she let go and stopped pouring magic power into the blue flame, the raging sea of ​​fire would surely expand again. If she failed to escape the danger zone, even with more blood-red gems, the speed of recovery would not be able to catch up with the speed of her cremation.

When two brave men meet in a narrow road, the brave one wins. However, the two people in the stalemate both became cowardly without any prior agreement.

The similarity is that neither of them wants to die with the other, and both think that it is not worth exchanging one for one with the other. The difference is that Voldemort wants to kill Ada first and then leave here, but he is still a little hesitant; while Ada's idea is relatively simple, she just wants to escape, and she is a little more confident.

The competition continued, the fire became more intense, and the scope of the sea of ​​​​fire continued to spread, which made Ada's method more and more impractical.

It is said that when gods fight, mortals suffer. The rolling flames and scorching air waves not only destroyed the cemetery, but also almost burned Crabbe and Goyle who remained in the cemetery to death.

Fortunately, Crabbe and Goyle kept running away from the center of the fire when the barbecue party started; fortunately, Crabbe and Goyle still had their wands in their hands to resist the occasional flames, so they did not end up with the same fate as Foley.

However, if Ada and Voldemort continue to be in a stalemate, Crabbe and Goyle will not be so lucky, and there will be no place for them to stay in this cemetery.

The two burly men are now standing back to back, jointly resisting the invasion of the two-colored flames. This is the true meaning of life and death together.

In addition to resisting the flames, Crabbe and Goyle were also constantly trying to Apparate. The two of them placed their hopes on their master, hoping that the Dark Lord would show mercy and lift the restrictions around the cemetery.

Crabbe and Goyle were not destined to die, as Voldemort had indeed lifted the restrictions around the cemetery. Before either of them could even thank the Dark Lord for his mercy, they Apparated away from the cemetery in a hurry, and no one knew where they had gone.

Voldemort saw this scene, and he was so angry that he almost bit his back teeth to pieces. He cursed the fool in his heart. Voldemort did not lift the restrictions of the cemetery out of mercy, but just to facilitate his own actions.

Although it was unknown why Ada ignored the anti-Apparition, Voldemort was always on guard against her in case she would follow suit and attack him like she did with Foley.

Instead of guarding against others, it is better to take the initiative. Voldemort removed the restrictions for this purpose. He wanted to kill Ada using Ada's method. The reason why he did not act for a long time was that the plan was not perfect enough and there were some things that made Voldemort worried.

Use Apparition to move behind Ada and kill her, then use Apparition to leave after killing her. The plan is not complicated.

Voldemort was worried about the gap in between. He was worried that something might happen while he was killing Ada, and that his body would be stained with the blue flame. Voldemort was afraid of death, and he didn't want his efforts to go to waste.

If he accidentally destroys his body again this time, God knows how long Voldemort will have to wait before he can make a comeback again.

So Voldemort hesitated. He did not make an attempt at the first time. Instead, he tried to perfect his plan in his mind and reduce the uncontrollable factors.

This hesitation didn't matter, Crabbe and Goyle ran away. It didn't matter that these two ran away, because they were both useless anyway, but Voldemort's plan would fail.

Although sneak attacks are not ethical, this method is indeed effective and Ada has tried it many times and it has worked for her.

The most important thing about a sneak attack is to catch the opponent by surprise. You should appear in an unexpected position, in a way that the opponent doesn't expect, and use all your strength to hit the opponent's weakest link, delivering a fatal blow.

At this moment, Crabbe and Goyle used Apparition to escape, which undoubtedly reminded Ada and told her that she could Apparate now, and she had to be careful of someone attacking from behind!

They are bad teammates. They didn't help at all and only made things worse. They are bad teammates. Even pigs feel wronged.

On the other side, Ada naturally received the "kind" reminder from Crabbe and Goyle. How could she miss such a great gift!
This gave Ada, who was forced into a desperate situation, hope for survival.

Aida was already at the end of her rope, and a stalemate was not good for her. The sea of ​​fire was spreading, and Flash could no longer take Aida to a safe place. It seemed that only death was waiting for her.

Just when Ada was at a loss, she heard two loud noises similar to car backfires. This loud noise, which was very different from the explosion, immediately attracted Ada's attention. She knew that it was the sound produced by the Phantom Apparition.

This kind of sound usually only occurs when a novice or a newbie is performing Apparition. I don't know which situation Crabbe and Goyle are in. It may be that they were careless or in a hurry to escape and did not control their own magic.

No matter what, Ada, who was forced into a desperate situation, survived. Flash might not be able to make her leave, but Apparition definitely could!
