Harry Potter: I started checking in from Diagon Alley

Creating Horcruxes in front of Eric was Voldemort's biggest mistake.

Inspired by Nicolas Flamel, Eric has been studying the soul for some time now.

Whether it's the study of Horcruxes or the fusion and separation of powers, Eric has forged his own path.

Voldemort's actions tonight directly helped Eric take another big step forward on this path.

The information gap led Voldemort to believe that all his Horcruxes were safe and sound.

He had no idea that Eric had mastered most of it and had studied the locket for so long.

This is also why he was forced to create the Horcrux in front of Eric.

Aside from the Horcrux, he had no better way to immediately escape Eric's attack at the time.

Unexpectedly, this put Voldemort in a desperate situation.

Eric might know more about Horcruxes than he does about himself.

Through the Horcruxes, Voldemort's soul was identified, and then, General—

Seeing Eric and Dumbledore raise their wands simultaneously, Voldemort's eyes widened, and he almost roared out loud.

"This is impossible!"

This was the only form of resistance he could muster before his death.

Eric's resolve remained unchanged; he was ready to kill Voldemort in the next moment.

"BOOM!"

A violent explosion resounded through the night sky, engulfing a nearby area.

Eric and Dumbledore both felt the fluctuations.

"That voice..."

"explode......?"

Dumbledore and Eric realized it at the same time.

Besides Voldemort, they had somehow forgotten about someone who was quite important tonight.

......

On the outskirts of the three-person battle, in the dense jungle, a huge crater has appeared in the center of the forest.

The magical fluctuations I just felt were emanating from this giant crater.

At this moment, standing beside the giant pit was a figure, along with several Death Eaters draped in black robes.

The figure leading the group, holding a magic wand, looked somewhat thin.

However, at this moment he went mad, pointing his wand at the others and shouting, "Attack! All of you, attack!"

That's Barty Crouch Jr.

He didn't know when it started, but he regained control of the remaining Death Eaters.

As soon as he finished speaking, he swung his wand violently, and two Death Eaters howled and trembled as they charged toward Eric and Dumbledore.

As they ran, their bodies began to swell rapidly, soon becoming like the Death Eaters who were willing to die for Voldemort's resurrection.

Their bodies rapidly expanded, and in the blink of an eye, they transformed into two balloon-like monsters, each three meters tall, with bulging muscles, dark and rough skin, fleshy faces, and a foul stench emanating from their bodies.

The two Death Eaters were incredibly fast; their feet left deep imprints on the ground.

Moreover, their speed did not decrease due to the long run.

Their bodies moved incessantly, and in an instant they pounced on Eric and Dumbledore.

And from their mouths came low hisses.

This is the excited roar of the Death Eaters.

In their eyes, these two humans were nothing more than their prey.

Eric and Dumbledore frowned as they saw two burly Death Eaters, their bodies bulging as if they were about to explode, charging towards them.

Dumbledore gave him a look of obvious disgust.

Eric, however, shook his head slightly.

Both of them could tell that these Death Eaters were not acting voluntarily.

They were completely under the control of Barty Crouch Jr., and at this moment, their bodies were on the verge of going berserk.

The Imperish Curse—only the Imperish Curse can do this.

At this moment, they were no longer simply Death Eaters, but strange life forms that possessed intelligence, could think, and could speak.

Unfortunately, they all had only one ending.

That is, just like the Death Eater who made the commotion earlier, rushing to Eric and Dumbledore's side.

Then, it exploded!

If Barty Crouch Jr. were to have a mental breakdown at this point, then the Death Eaters would also disappear.

You're playing with fire!

"You will pay for the sins you have committed, Barty Crouch Jr.!"

"Hahaha! Hahahaha! Hahahaha!" Barty Crouch Jr. let out a piercing laugh upon hearing Dumbledore's angry rebuke.

"You forced me to do this! I should have done it a long time ago!"

Hearing Barty Crouch Jr.'s words, Dumbledore's face darkened even more. He hadn't expected Barty Crouch Jr. to be so ruthless.

He even used the Soul-Stealing Curse on his own companion.

After taking control of them, he even directed them to come and die.

The next moment, the two Death Eaters had already rushed in front of Eric and Dumbledore.

Their faces were so swollen that you could no longer see any facial features; they were as fat as hot air balloons.

Inside the hot air balloon, there are some of the most filthy and disgusting things in the world.

That was pure malice belonging to Barty Crouch Jr.

The hot air balloon was gently poked.

Then, it exploded completely!

Chapter 196 Failed!

However, just as the two Death Eaters' bodies exploded in mid-air, a red light flashed from their wreckage.

These red dots quickly gathered on Barty Crouch Jr.'s arm.

This scene greatly surprised Dumbledore and Eric.

But soon, this shock turned into doubt.

Because they saw that as the points of light converged, the outline of a human face gradually appeared on Barty Crouch Jr.'s arm.

Then, the face became clearer and clearer.

Finally, the face was fully revealed to Dumbledore and Eric.

It was Voldemort's face.

"What...what's going on?!" Dumbledore asked, bewildered.

A look of pain crossed Barty Crouch Jr.'s face as he murmured, "I...I don't know either..."

Although he controlled the two wizards' bodies with the Imperius Curse, he was not actually fully conscious.

Or rather, Barty himself has always been in a state of confusion.

This pain was far beyond what he could bear.

"Ahhhh!!!"

The sudden pain made him cry out in agony, and then his whole body curled up.

The face of Voldemort, formed from red dots of light, became blurred as a result.

"No! No! No!" Barty Crouch Jr. cried out in anguish.

However, the sound stopped abruptly the next second.

Those red dots had completely merged into his arm, turning into sharp blood vessels.

Then he looked up and stared at Dumbledore and Eric, his eyes filled with resentment and anger.

"You must die!"

He said through gritted teeth.

The next moment, he swayed and charged straight at Dumbledore.

At this moment, a rare look of confusion appeared on Dumbledore's face.

"This magic...?! I can't believe he actually completed it!"

Grindelwald, who was watching from the sidelines, also showed a shocked expression for the first time that night.

Looking at Barty Crouch Jr., Eric's lips curled into a cold smile. He stretched out his right hand and lightly struck towards Barty Crouch Jr.

No! Don't kill him!

Dumbledore and Grindelwald stopped him at the same time.

But it was too late.

Eric moved too fast.

A strong sense of crisis suddenly flooded Barty Crouch Jr.'s mind.

This made him stop immediately and then back away.

However, the moment he stopped, Eric's wand swung out and suddenly turned into a burst of intense white light.

A flash of white light, and Barty Crouch Jr. felt a blur before his eyes. Then, he saw an extremely fast spell form, instantly appearing in front of him and slamming into his chest.
