The Hogwarts Emerald

Chapter 580 Both sides suffer losses
Just when Ada cast "Clear Water Like Spring" to put out the fire, Voldemort calculated her position accurately. The rising white mist gave Voldemort excellent cover, allowing the Dark Lord to easily approach Ada's back.

A wizard is not a knight, and a duel is not a gentlemanly one of you hit me and I hit you.

Backstab is naturally very popular, and Voldemort is also a master in it. To be honest, he is Ada's predecessor!

Voldemort in a black robe looked like the god of death at this moment, the yew wand was like the scythe in the hand of the god of death, and the pale green spell was a verdict on Ada, sentencing her to death.

A smile appeared on Voldemort's lips, cold, cruel and ruthless.

Although I can't watch the light of life disappear from the enemy's eyes, being able to kill a very threatening opponent is nothing.

But Voldemort was destined to be disappointed, as he had already missed the best opportunity to kill Ada. Ada was now a person who could rival him, so how could she be killed so easily?

Ida twisted her body strangely, and used her shield emitting golden light to withstand the fatal spell.

The distance between the two was too close. The huge impact force caused the shield to shake. Ada also took advantage of this force to step back a few steps, adjusting her body shape while increasing the distance between herself and Voldemort.

"Avada Kedavra!" Voldemort shouted again.

"Fainted!" Ada's voice sounded at the same time.

Two spells, one green and one white, collided and linked together, magic power splashed, and sparks flew!
The British magic world welding competition is in full swing...

……

The night was getting darker and the dew was heavier. The battle in Malfoy Manor was still intense. Although different from the fight between the two demons in the main building, the duel in the courtyard was also full of dangers. There were several more corpses on the ground.

The newly added corpses include those of Aurors from the Ministry of Magic and Death Eaters.

No matter which force the owner of the corpse belonged to during his lifetime, those who can survive to the end are all elites. Every drop of blood shed on this land tonight is the wizard's loss.

Ada and Voldemort were not in the courtyard, and Bellatrix became the most active person on the field. She was a powerful and cruel witch, and more than ten years of imprisonment made her crazy.

Crazy and violent, Bellatrix is ​​highly compatible with dark magic.

She moved between the two sides, hitting the Aurors here and there, disrupting the Aurors' lines.

Whether it was more than a decade ago or now, there are many people who follow Voldemort, but not all of them can be called Death Eaters. Only a few people have this title, and they have learned a few tricks from Voldemort to a greater or lesser extent.

Tom Marvolo Riddle made indelible contributions to the promotion of the three unforgivable curses and their widespread use.

The Ministry of Magic's surprise attack on the manor tonight dealt a heavy blow to Voldemort and his followers, and destroyed the Dark Lord's prestige.

Perhaps in order to get back their honor, or perhaps out of fear of punishment, the Death Eaters' attack was extremely crazy, and their cruel and ruthless dark magic made the remaining Aurors suffer.

Fortunately, those who dared to stay and continue fighting were not weaklings, so they were able to resist the crazy Death Eaters and prevent Ada from being isolated and helpless.

Scrimgeour put aside his prejudices and stood back to back with Mr. Weasley to deal with the Lestrange brothers, Antonin Dolohov and Fenrir Greyback who were besieging them.

The four of them surrounded Scrimgeour and Mr. Weasley and attacked them in turns. The powerful spells made the two of them miserable. The other Aurors also had their opponents and were unable to free themselves to help.

"I heard that you are related to the Prewett family, right?" Antonin Dolohov mocked during a break in his attack.

During the First Wizarding War, Dolohov tortured many Muggles and witches and wizards who did not support Voldemort. He also killed Fabian and Gideon Prewett along with four other Death Eaters.

The Prewett brothers are Mrs. Weasley's maternal brothers, and Mr. Weasley's uncles. It is said that the twins were named Fred and George in memory of the Prewett brothers.

Fred and George's first letters are "F" and "G" respectively, as are Fabian and Gideon's first letters.

"Do you want me to tell you how they died?" Dolohov said cruelly, "The two of them kept fighting and retreating... but no one came to rescue them... Where do you think Dumbledore went? Haha, in the end I killed them both, and you will die in my hands soon!"

Dolohov's nagging provocation was successful. Mr. Weasley was furious and attacked the grinning Dolohov with all his strength, wanting to avenge his two uncles. Mr. Weasley, who was not as calm as before and had a somewhat unbalanced mentality, suddenly exposed many flaws, and the defense he and Scrimgeour had jointly supported showed signs of damage.

On this side, Dolohov stabilized the hatred, while on the other side, Rodolphus Lestrange attacked Mr. Weasley fiercely.

"Calm down! Arthur Weasley, calm down!" Scrimgeour shouted, waving his wand to protect Mr. Weasley.

After all, it was four against two, and the majority bullied the minority. Mr. Weasley and Scrimgeour inevitably fell into danger.

Unexpectedly, Mr. Weasley should have been the target of the Death Eaters' concentrated fire, but who would have thought that Rodolphus would feint and then attack Rufus Scrimgeour on the side, separating Mr. Weasley and Scrimgeour and preventing the two from responding to each other.

"Avada Kedavra!" Rodolphus shouted the killing curse coldly.

Scrimgeour rolled on the ground, barely avoiding the Killing Curse.

But Dolohov also chanted a spell loudly, and purple flames emerged from the tip of his wand.

"Armor!" Scrimgeour shouted as he had no way to avoid it. Although the dangerous purple flames were blocked by the Armor Charm, they still made Scrimgeour stagger and lose his balance.

The opportunity came as Fenrir Greyback rushed towards him, howling, and tackled him to the ground.

Mr. Weasley was too late to rescue because he was entangled by Bellatrix who suddenly appeared and could not get away.

Scrimgeour was knocked down and in danger. Greyback had already opened his big, smelly mouth. His teeth were disgustingly yellow, and his greedy hot air sprayed into Scrimgeour's throat.

"There are many obstacles!" A slightly hoarse female voice sounded.

The Impediment Charm struck Greyback, and with a squeal like a slaughtered pig, he flew up into the darkness beyond.

The blindfolded female Auror quickly ran over and pulled up Scrimgeour who had fallen to the ground. She was the one who cast the barrier spell. After she defeated her opponent, she happened to see Scrimgeour in danger, and the female Auror immediately lent a hand.

Before Scrimgeour, who was rescued, had time to say thank you, a loud and earth-shattering noise was heard.

The Aurors and Death Eaters in the melee stopped fighting and looked towards the place where the explosion came from. They saw a green beam of light shooting straight into the sky! Before everyone could react, there was another loud bang, and the ruined manor building collapsed.

Smoke and dust rose up, and the Aurors and Death Eaters finally reacted. Both sides gave up the idea of ​​continuing the fight and hurried towards the collapsed main building.

The Death Eaters rushed away to show their loyalty. They believed that their master had won the duel and that the damned Drizzt should have been dealt with by the Dark Lord.

The Aurors who also rushed over were not so confident. They were all worried about Ada's safety. Voldemort had been in the wizarding world for decades, with a great reputation and fierce rage, but Ada was still a little young after all.

As everyone was running, a man stood up staggeringly from the ruins of the main building.

Seeing the tall and thin figure, the Death Eaters cheered, and Bellatrix's laughter was even more piercing. Despair rose in the hearts of the Aurors, especially Mr. Weasley, whose eyes were filled with tears due to the bitterness in his heart.

Although Ada was also tall, her height did not match that slender figure. Therefore, both sides believed that the staggering man was the Dark Lord (the mysterious man).

"Look at that!" the blindfolded female Auror shouted excitedly.

Following the direction of the female Auror's finger, the desperate crowd saw another figure standing up, but shaking even more violently.

The smoke and dust on the ruins gradually dissipated, and the Aurors and Death Eaters were right in their guess; the first person to stand up was Voldemort.

The Dark Lord's black robe had become tattered, and his pale and slender hands were supporting his head, seeming a little confused.

The figure that appeared from the other end was naturally Ada. Her dress was intact, but she looked a little bad. Her long golden hair was covered with dust and looked gray. Her face was as pale as paper, and her lips were bloodless.
