Chapter 279 The Showdown at Grimmauld Place (Second Update)

"Excuse me, is Miss Hermione Granger home?"

Upon landing at Hermione's doorstep, Hawking went straight up and knocked.

The door opened, and a middle-aged woman looked at Hawking with some confusion and replied:

"Young sir, you may have come to the wrong place. There is no one here named Hermione Granger."

"She's Mrs. Granger, Hermione's mother. I've seen her picture at Hermione's place. How could she not recognize Hermione?"

In the mental space, Harry looked at the situation outside, completely bewildered.

Hawking, however, already understood and politely replied to Mrs. Granger:

"Madam, perhaps I have the wrong address. I apologize for disturbing you."

He scanned the entire room with his mental powers, and sure enough, Hermione Granger was nowhere to be found in any of the photos.

Clearly, Hermione erased all traces of herself to protect her parents from attacks by her Death Eaters.

At this point, in the Grangers' memory, they had never had a daughter named Hermione Granger, nor had they ever been in contact with the wizarding world.

"It's the Oblivion Curse. Hermione used the Oblivion Curse on her parents."

After explaining to Harry, Hawking used the Disillusionment Charm to become invisible and continued flying towards 12 Grimmauld Place.

Meanwhile, in Grimmauld Place.

One after another, figures clad in black wizard robes appeared using Apparition. Leading them was a witch who looked utterly insane.

She was Bellatrix Lestrange, Voldemort's number one fan.

She is also Sirius's cousin.

"Little Avery, are you sure this is the place?"

Bellatrix drew her wand, a cruel smile spreading across her face.

A male Death Eater next to her also drew his wand:

"It's definitely here. I followed that wizard named Ron Weasley, and he went into this building."

"Hahaha, that old man Dumbledore thought that with the Faithful Charm, we would never find this place."

Today, we'll eliminate all these Order of the Phoenix members who keep ruining our plans. Once Dumbledore's hands and feet are gone, let's see how he fights the Dark Lord!

After Bellatrix and all the Death Eaters set up the Anti-Apparition Charm, they didn't try to find the room where the Order of the Phoenix was located in the League building that seemed to be inhabited by Muggles. Instead, they all raised their wands together.

"Thunderous explosion!"

Dozens of explosive spells were released simultaneously.

In an instant, the entire residential building in front of us exploded as if dozens of C4 cartridges had been thrown at it, turning it into a pile of rubble.

The Muggles living there were either blown up by the Explosion Curse or crushed by the collapsing buildings; almost no one survived.

The Death Eaters, however, remained completely unmoved by the sight of this horrific scene.

In recent years, under the leadership of the Dark Lord, although they have not completely broken with Muggles, they are no longer restricted by the Secret Law, and killing Muggles is a common occurrence.

This will force members of the Order of the Phoenix to show themselves.

Otherwise, even if they knew that the building might contain a Phoenix base, they wouldn't be able to find it without the guidance of a secret agent.

"Bellatrix, I'm going to kill you!"

Just then, accompanied by an angry roar, more than twenty people emerged from the ruins of the residential building.

Leading the group were Sirius Black and Remus Lupin, followed by the Weasleys, Hermione, Moody, Nymphadora, and others.

Upon noticing the anomaly, they immediately used their armor spells to protect themselves, thus avoiding harm.

However, seeing all their Muggle neighbors living in the same building being killed filled them with rage.

"My dear cousin, you were lucky you weren't killed at the Department of Magic last time. Let's see where you think you can run this time!"

Facing her angry cousin, Bellatrix showed no fear whatsoever, but instead wore a mocking expression.

As one of the most powerful dark wizards under the Dark Lord, she didn't think anyone on the other side could be her match, and the number of Death Eaters she brought was almost three times that of the enemy.

This was a pressure-free siege.

"You murderer, I will avenge Harry!"

Just then, Ron suddenly darted out from behind and fired a spell at Bellatrix's neck:

"Torn apart!"

This curse is not normally fatal; at most, it will leave a cut on a person's body. However, if it is aimed at the neck and struck with full force, it can also sever the head.

As Harry's best friend, Ron witnessed Harry being killed by Bellatrix at the Department of Magic, so how could he possibly stand it now?

"You, Avada Kedavra!"

Bellatrix waved her wand, easily deflecting Ron's spell, and then immediately followed up with a Killing Curse.

"Ron!"

Fortunately, Hermione reacted quickly and pulled Ron aside, narrowly avoiding the Killing Curse.

Seeing that Ron had not died from her Killing Curse, Bellatrix did not pursue him further.

"Whether you die sooner or later, you're going to die anyway, so why bother struggling in vain?"

"It might not be just one of you who dies; I think it could be you."

Sirius Black, Lupin, and the others stood in front of Ron and Hermione.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Weasleys gathered all the younger generation at the back.

"Hermione, Ron, Bill, Charlie, we'll hold them off for a bit, and you can use that time to escape."

An anti-Apparition spell has been cast here, preventing them from Apparating away. Given the significant difference in numbers, they are clearly doomed to lose.

In order to avoid total annihilation, they decided that they, as parents and teachers, would do everything in their power to stand in front of the Death Eaters and use their lives to buy time for the children to escape.

"We're not leaving. We might as well all die together."

Ron and the others clearly did not want to escape. They were all adults and had fought many Death Eaters over the years. It was impossible for them to leave their parents and teachers behind and escape alone.

They already had the awareness to die.

"I know what you're up to. This time, none of you will escape!"

However, their plan had already been seen through by Bellatrix.

Bellatrix waved her hand, and the Death Eaters spread out into a circle, surrounding all the members of the Order of the Phoenix.

"Since that's the case, then let's give it our all."

Bellatrix, everyone else can live, but you have to die today!

All members of the Order of the Phoenix raised their wands, ready to fight to the death.

"Then let's see if you have the ability!"

The Death Eaters wore cruel smiles.

Just as a major battle was about to erupt, a faint yet undeniable voice suddenly rang out above them:

"It seems we arrived just in time; any later and it would have been a real problem."

Everyone looked up at the sky.

But when they clearly saw the figure floating above their heads, they all looked as if they had seen a ghost:

"Harry Potter!"
