My Hogwarts has a serious problem.

Chapter 464, Section 461. This was his own unbearable humiliation.

Blood dripped onto the sea surface as if it were free.

Hermione looked at the half-corpse in Lynn's hand, her face turning pale, and she felt an overwhelming nausea.

But in the end, she didn't turn around or close her eyes; instead, she forced herself to endure it.

Fox and Lynn were completely bewildered.

Lynn glanced at the half of O'Brien in his hand, then turned and exchanged a look with Fox.

"I didn't intend to kill him. He chose to commit suicide because he couldn't bear the humiliation."

Lynn's explanation was weak and unconvincing, because even if Fox believed him at this point, there were hundreds of Aurors behind them who wouldn't be so magnanimous.

The Aurors, who were still in shock, also came to their senses.

Their faces turned incredibly sorrowful and furious as they stared at O'Brien's mangled body, each raising their wand at Lynn.

Their intentions are self-evident.

Now, no matter who killed the hostage, he is dead, and they must make Lynn pay the price.

With so many Aurors swarming him, even without spells, just one of them hitting Lynn on the head with a wand would be enough to give him a hard time.

After seeing the intentions of these people, Lynn and Fox both chose the same approach at the same time.

Together, they raised their wands at the hundreds of Aurors behind them, shouting their spells almost a second before the Aurors could cast their incantations.

"Thunderous Explosion (Triple Amplification, Spread)!"

"Divine Sharpness Without a Trace (Spread)!"

A dazzling burst of fire erupted in the sky!

At the same moment, a deafening roar resounded, along with the sound of countless invisible blades slicing through the air and hurtling forward!

Lynn's explosive spell, unleashed with all his might, pierced through almost all of the Aurors' armor spells on the spot. In fact, in the center of the explosion, some Aurors' shells were pierced, and the aftershocks of the explosion, still powerful, shattered them into pieces!

Following closely behind Lynn's Explosive Curse, Fox's Divine Edge of No Return arrived!

The sounds of countless bodies being pierced by sharp blades continued forward, masked by the explosions, accompanied by the Aurors' suppressed screams of pain!

At first glance, Lynn and Fox's combined use of dark magic to spread their influence seemed to have yielded remarkable results.

Almost all the Aurors were wounded, and everyone's wizard robes were reduced to shreds.

But the two of them, along with Hermione, did not linger in one place for a moment. Instead, they quickened their pace, trying to escape the sea area that was blocked by anti-Apparition magic as fast as possible.

Amidst the swirling smoke of the explosion, dozens of mangled corpses fell from the sky into the surging waves. At the same time, hundreds of various spells, mostly green, pierced the air and shot towards Lynn and his companions.

These Aurors might not be a match for either Lynn or Fox individually, but their numbers were simply too great.

Even if Lynn and his group join forces to use diffusion black magic, the effect of the spell will inevitably be greatly weakened after diffusion. Apart from the central area, the larger the diffusion range, the more difficult it will be to cause effective damage.

This is especially true for Explosion Spell and Divine Strike Spell, which are inherently area-of-effect damage spells.

So while the effect looked terrifying, in reality, less than one-tenth of the Aurors died as a result, and the remaining survivors did not stop casting spells.

These spells were so dense that even if Lynn and his companions flew nimbly through the air, they couldn't dodge such a barrage of spells.

So Lynn immediately released the [Scepter], turning it into a huge metal shield behind them, blocking all the killing curses that couldn't penetrate solidity.

However, while these killing curses will not kill the scepter, they still cause considerable damage to it.

Numerous killing curses left pits and holes on its surface. Even though these are not irreversible damages, they can still make it take a long time for the scepter to recover.

After enduring just one wave of attacks, the scepter was already on the verge of collapse. It let out a mournful cry and then transformed back into the metal rod, flying back to Lynn.

Lynn grabbed Hermione's hand with one hand and Fawkes' shoulder with the other, asking urgently.

"Professor, are we still not out of the anti-Apparition magic's range?"

Fox held his wand and kept chanting the Apparition spell, having no time to answer Lynn's question.

The Aurors dispersed their formation again, aiming their wands at Lynn and his companions, planning to launch a second wave of attack.

Lynn gritted his teeth, cast a triple-amplification armor spell on himself, gripped Hermione's hand tightly, and shielded her with his body while continuously casting dark magic behind him to hinder the wizards' spellcasting.

However, not all of these Aurors were motionless sitting ducks who only knew how to huddle together and take a beating. After they replenished their armor charms, they dispersed their formation, causing Lynn to turn around and launch several counter-spells that had little effect.

Various spells were chanted from the mouths of hundreds of Aurors, and the dazzling magical lights, illuminated by the setting sun, resembled hundreds of venomous snakes spitting their tongues as they attacked Lynn and his companions.

Just as Lynn was about to pick up Hermione, who was riding on a flying broom, and grab Fawkes with one hand, he was about to use the Bubble Head Charm to try to get into the sea and escape this attack.

Fox suddenly grabbed his arm tightly.

"Hold on tight!"

The moment Fox finished speaking, all three of their bodies twisted for a split second before vanishing into thin air.

Countless spells passed through the spot where they disappeared, then vanished without a trace in the far distance.

The Aurors from the United States stopped their flying brooms, their faces still bearing sadness, anger, and confusion about what would happen next.

In the end, they didn't even catch a hair on Lynn's head, but the Congressional security chief died. How were they supposed to explain this when they got back?

These Aurors didn't linger in mid-air for long before O'Brien's second-in-command made a decision.

They must go back and give a full account of what happened to Congress.

The matter involving Lynn has been classified as top secret within Congress, and the main reason for the failure of this operation was a misjudgment of Lynn's strength.
