Hogwarts Kryptonian.

Chapter 259 Fiasco
Because he was worried that he would be discovered if he got too close like the last time in Hogsmeade, Lu Yunkai deliberately avoided it this time.

He also failed to hear what Voldemort and his servants said after they arrived, and could only watch what happened there from a distance.

First, Bellatrix rushed over to provoke the dozen or so Ministry of Magic employees who were strengthening their defenses. The battle between the two sides was on the verge of breaking out, but no one really took action. Then Voldemort stood up and said a few words , the staff of the Ministry of Magic continued to strengthen the protection, while Bellatrix returned to Voldemort's side and stood still.

Lu Yunkai in the distance is very familiar with this plot, it can be said that he can guess how to dub it with his toes.

It was nothing more than Bellatrix threatening the staff of the Ministry of Magic not to strengthen the prison's defenses. The staff said that this was their job. After the two sides argued, Voldemort came out and asked his subordinates to allow these staff to get on with their work.

Of course, there may be some arrogant statements like "Anyway, after the duel, you will get an order to release your defenses".

Then, the staff of the Ministry of Magic lived in peace with the Death Eaters...

This scene really made Lu Yunkai feel uncomfortable.

How many people are against Voldemort?This matter is probably no more guessable than the number of those who oppose the International Statute of Secrecy.

Are these Ministry of Magic employees all scumbags like Umbridge?

Ugh.

Lu Yunkai sighed silently, and sat cross-legged on the ground.

After waiting for a while, another apparition sounded.

Dumbledore has arrived.

Unlike Voldemort, who brought a group of men, Dumbledore came by himself.

Almost immediately, the Death Eaters became restless, and a group of people surrounded Dumbledore.

However, Voldemort seemed to still maintain his somewhat haughty heart, and with a wave of his hand, the group of Death Eaters came back behind him.

Afterwards, the group of Death Eaters Apparated away one after another.

Except for the twelve Ministry of Magic employees who were still strengthening their defenses, only Dumbledore and Voldemort were left on the island.

Of course, there is also Lu Yunkai hiding under the invisibility cloak.

Dumbledore seemed to be talking to Voldemort, but Lu Yunkai couldn't hear anything because they were too far away.

He didn't dare to get close, after all, he was a little worried about the experience of being exposed in Hogsmeade last time.

I could only watch from afar the two greatest wizards of our time talking there.

Itchy! !

Lu Yunkai suddenly felt a little regretful.

I can't even hear the most exciting verbal attack before this kind of duel, so why are you here! !
But he really didn't dare to go over...

endure.

Fortunately, the two of them didn't seem to like talking very much, and they started to move their hands after talking for a long time.

And Lu Yunkai, and the attention of the twelve wizards who were strengthening their defenses were all concentrated at once.

The wand in his hand was placed in front of him.

"Armor protection." Lu Yunkai used a protective spell for himself, holding a stand-in doll in his hand, and then put the "rented" shield in the system on the phantom display, always ready to buy life-saving .

Everything is ready, and Dumbledore and Voldemort have completed the so-called dueling etiquette over there.

Salute and say hello.

Then, do it.

Of course, it is impossible for these two wizards to make moves at the same time, or a civil and military battle between you and me. Following an Avada Kedavra, and Lu Yunkai did not know the purpose of the spell, the two moved at the same time. hand.

Lu Yunkai suddenly became excited.

Today Dumbledore does not seem to have chosen the gorgeous and quaint magic of the last time he was in Hogsmeade.

Of course, it is not the kind of powerful but extremely low-key black magic of Voldemort.

The effect of casting the spell seems to be quite satisfactory.

But the power of the spell is definitely not a joke.

The ground that was smooth and flat just now was covered with potholes almost instantly.

The fierce fight made Lu Yunkai, who had been hiding far away, be terrified.

But soon, Lu Yunkai didn't even care about being afraid.

Because even he, a rookie wizard apprentice, could tell that Voldemort had the upper hand in this duel.

Voldemort in a black robe seldom evades Dumbledore's spells. Most of the time he will use his own magic to knock Dumbledore's spells into the air or deflect them, but Voldemort's spells, Dumbledore's However, they seldom use the same method to deal with it. Most of the time, they choose to dodge.

Such a difference between movement and stillness seems to clearly explain the difference in magical power between the two.

Dumbledore... seems to be no match at all.

Lu Yunkai frowned.

right?When he was in Hogsmeade before, Dumbledore didn't act so broken!Relying on those gorgeous and beautiful classical spells, Dumbledore even has the upper hand!

It seems that the curse in Dumbledore's hand really had a great impact on him! !

In this case……

Lu Yunkai glanced at the Azkaban Prison not far away from the corner of his eyes.

Chris, can you hurry up! !

However, although Dumbledore was clearly at a disadvantage, Voldemort seemed unable to turn his advantage into victory for a while.

The two are still deadlocked.

But everyone could see that Dumbledore's failure should only be a matter of time.

Just when Lu Yunkai felt that Dumbledore's spell had weakened, Chris finally appeared.

"Meow?? Why did the duel start?"

"Not only has it started, it's almost over."

Lu Yunkai lowered his voice and whispered to Chris who skillfully jumped onto his shoulder.

"...Why is Dumbledore so miserable?" Chris only took one look, and she could see that Voldemort was now in a winning position.

"That curse had too much influence on him." Lu Yunkai sighed softly, "Are you ready?"

"Anytime." Chris nodded, "As long as someone tries to attack the Azkaban prison, or the prisoners riot, those skyfire potions will explode."

"Very good." Lu Yunkai nodded, "Then... let's go."

"Meow?? Didn't you see the end of the duel?"

"I'm afraid it won't be easy for us to leave after the fight." Lu Yunkai stood up gently.

This duel was really far worse than the one in Hogsmeade.

It doesn't mean evenly matched at all!

"Meow, then it's impossible for you to apparate now, you will be discovered."

"...I'm going to jump into the ocean and Apparate, so I won't be found."

"...Good idea, let's go."

"Hmm." Lu Yunkai took one last look at Dumbledore and Voldemort, and then jumped down the next cliff.

During the fall, one apparated.

……

After all, Lu Yunkai did not see the result of that duel with his own eyes.

Although after watching most of the duel, he could guess the result almost without using his brain, but guessing, even reading it from the Daily Prophet, was different from seeing Dumbledore defeat and escape with his own eyes.

Lu Yunkai decided to keep a little hope.

For myself, but also for Chris.

Dumbledore's defeat, as long as it's not particularly miserable, then they still have a chance...

just.

Lu Yunkai kept this bit of sympathy and hope, but some people would not do this.

The next day, the British wizards other than Lu Yunkai also got the result of the duel from the Daily Prophet after a day of anxiety.

"The Dumbledore You Didn't Know"

The front page of the Daily Prophet the next day told everyone the outcome of the duel in such a cryptic way.

Voldemort won.

In the second edition, the Ministry of Magic officially launched a hunt for Dumbledore on the grounds that Dumbledore was "suspected to organize members against the Ministry of Magic".

This also told everyone the result of this duel.

Voldemort won, but Dumbledore survived.

Everything was as Lu Yunkai knew and guessed in advance.

No surprises at all.

After glancing at the daily Prophet article signed by Rita Skeeter exposing Dumbledore's dark history, Lu Yunkai sighed softly and threw the newspaper aside.

It seemed that Dumbledore was too optimistic after all.

It's just... this optimism...

But let's not be blind! !
The impact of the result of the duel, the article "The Dumbledore You Don't Know" in the Daily Prophet and the hunt for him were just the beginning, and soon things began to spread.

One of the most direct results is that Irene, who had always complained about being locked up at home, became honest in an instant.

She didn't mention anything about going to Diagon Alley to buy this or that. Apart from eating, sleeping, and working in the fields, she was just in a daze in the shed behind the medicine field.

And she is already considered a lucky person.

Because just a week after the duel ended, Lu Yunkai read a piece of news on the Daily Prophet that sent chills down his spine.

The Ministry of Magic began to register wizards, requiring all wizards to register with the Ministry of Magic within a limited time.

……

"You are Lu Yunkai?"

"……Um."

Lu Yunkai adjusted his clothes and took off the confusion mask on his face.

The headquarters of the Order of the Phoenix, the old house of the Black family, Lu Yunkai looked very bad.

Of course, Lupine who greeted him into the room didn't have a very good expression either.

Seeing Lu Yunkai take off his mask, Lu Ping did not put down the wand in his hand, and still pointed at Lu Yunkai.

"What was the first spell I taught you at Hogwarts?"

"...Funny?" Lu Yunkai was taken aback.

"...Well, sorry, we have to be cautious." Lupine put away his wand, and nodded to Lu Yunkai with a little embarrassment.

"It's all right. Where's Dumbledore?"

"He's upstairs." Lupine pointed to the stairs next to him, "but you'd better go to the restaurant and wait for him."

"it is good."

Lu Yunkai nodded and walked straight into the restaurant.

There was no one in the restaurant, so Lu Yunkai just found a chair and sat down without restraint.

Soon.

"You came so fast."

Dumbledore's figure appeared at the door of the restaurant.

Walking into the restaurant, he closed the door smoothly, and then did not forget to cast a secrecy spell on the door.

"...Are you injured?" Lu Yunkai instantly understood that Dumbledore wanted to come by himself today, and he was talking about something that no one in the Order of the Phoenix would know.

"Weren't you in Azkaban? Didn't you see it?" Dumbledore sat opposite Lu Yunkai.

His face looked terrible.

Pale with a touch of black.

"You were beaten so badly, I couldn't stand it anymore, so I slipped away first." Lu Yunkai said half-truthfully.

Dumbledore actually knew he was there again? ?I obviously hid far away this time! !

"Hmm... It's okay, I'm not very handsome when I run away." Dumbledore smiled, "But the things you did in Azkaban... a bit too much."

"Those people can't let them escape."

"...But there are also people who are not worthy of death."

"Voldemort will make them die."

"..." Dumbledore sighed softly and stopped arguing.

In fact, Lu Yunkai also hoped that Dumbledore could say a few more words to convince him...

"What do you want from me?" Lu Yunkai brought the topic back to business.

"As you can see, this curse...is indeed more powerful than I imagined." Dumbledore sighed softly, and raised his left hand.

Lu Yunkai took a look and was stunned.

"Didn't Professor Snape say that he has sealed the curse? Why... it spread so much!!"

Dumbledore's entire left arm has now completely turned into a black death skeleton.

This……

Can Dumbledore last another year?Give me a break! !
