Li An sat in the dimly lit room, the table in front of him piled with various mysterious items and ancient maps brought back from the Forbidden Forest. His brows were furrowed, his eyes revealing focus and contemplation, and his wand tapped lightly on the table, producing a crisp sound.
"These clues must point to some crucial place," Li An muttered to himself, his mind replaying his experiences in the Forbidden Forest. The mysterious runes and strange magical fluctuations all seemed to hint at a huge conspiracy.
After careful research and analysis, Lian finally found a clue. His eyes lit up, and he excitedly stood up: "I understand! The Ministry of Magic must be hiding more secrets about the lost spellbooks!"
This discovery filled Lian with both excitement and trepidation. He knew all too well that the Ministry of Magic was a heavily guarded place, and infiltrating it would undoubtedly be a tremendous adventure...
But in order to uncover the pure-blood family's conspiracy and stop Voldemort's plan, he had no other choice.
"Guo Yao, I need to go to the Ministry of Magic." Li An turned to look at Guo Yao sitting beside him, his eyes filled with determination and resolve.
Upon hearing this, Guo Yao's face showed worry. She quickly stood up and tightly grasped Li An's hand: "No, the Ministry of Magic is too dangerous. I can't let you take the risk!"
Li An gently patted Guo Yao's hand and comforted her tenderly, "Don't worry, I'll be careful. This is a crucial step in uncovering the conspiracy, and I have to go."
Looking into Li An's determined eyes, Guo Yao knew she couldn't stop him. She bit her lip, tears welling in her eyes: "Then you must promise me you'll come back safely."
Li An gently pulled Guo Yao into his arms and kissed her forehead lightly: "I promise you, I'll wait for you to come back."
After speaking, Li An released Guo Yao, took a deep breath, picked up his wand, and prepared to set off. His figure appeared exceptionally resolute in the dimly lit room, as if he were about to embark on a journey to save the world.
Chapter 281 Discovered
Upon reaching the entrance to the Ministry of Magic, Lian looked up at the magnificent and solemn building, which exuded a mysterious aura. He cautiously glanced around to make sure he wasn't discovered. Then, he whispered an incantation, and his body gradually became transparent, disappearing into the darkness.
After infiltrating the Ministry of Magic, Lian discovered that the defensive magic there was far more complex and powerful than he had imagined. Various magical traps and detection spells were scattered throughout every corner, and the slightest carelessness could trigger an alarm.
"It seems this mission is even more difficult than I imagined," Li An thought to himself, but his steps did not falter in the slightest. Relying on his rich experience and keen observation, he skillfully avoided one defensive spell after another.
In the corridor of the Department of Mysteries, Li An cautiously made his way forward. Strange lights flickered on the surrounding walls, and a low humming sound could be heard from time to time, as if countless eyes were watching him in the darkness.
"The atmosphere here is truly chilling," Lian muttered to himself, gripping his wand even tighter. His eyes scanned his surroundings warily, not missing a single potential danger.
Finally, Lian arrived at the door of the Ministry of Magic's archives. He took a deep breath and slowly pushed the door open. A musty smell wafted out; the room was filled with tall bookshelves, piled high with all sorts of magical books and documents.
"This is it." Li An felt a surge of excitement. He strode into the archives and began searching for clues about the lost magic book.
However, just as he was searching, a familiar voice suddenly rang out behind him: "I knew you would come here."
Li An was startled and quickly turned around, only to see Draco Malfoy standing in the doorway with a smug smile on his face.
"Draco, what are you doing here?" Lian frowned, his eyes revealing wariness.
Draco sneered and took a few steps forward: "Of course I'm here to stop you. Do you think you can find clues to the lost spellbook so easily? How naive!"
Li An was secretly on guard, knowing that Draco wouldn't let him off easily. But he didn't show the slightest fear; instead, a mocking smile appeared on his lips: "Oh? What makes you think you can stop me? Just because you're a puppet controlled by your family?"
Draco's face instantly darkened upon hearing this, a flash of anger crossing his eyes: "What did you say? How dare you insult me and my family!"
“I’m stating the facts.” Lian looked directly into Draco’s eyes without flinching and continued, “You think everything you’ve done is for the glory of your family? In reality, you’re just a pawn of Voldemort and the pure-blood families, manipulated by them.”
Draco's body trembled slightly, his fists clenched so tightly that his knuckles turned white: "You...you're talking nonsense! Everything I did was to uphold the dignity and status of the pure-blood family!"
"Dignity and status?" Li An shook his head with a cold laugh. "Look at you now, willing to turn against me for the sake of your family's orders. You don't even have your own thoughts and will, so what dignity do you have to speak of?"
Draco was utterly enraged by Lian's words; he could no longer tolerate such an insult. He yanked his wand out and pointed it at Lian: "You bastard, I'll make you pay for your words!"
Chapter 282 You also want to defeat me?
Lian was prepared; he swiftly raised his wand to block Draco's attack. Their wands collided in mid-air, emitting a dazzling light that seemed to distort the surrounding air with its powerful force.
"Hmph, you think you can defeat me?" Lian said disdainfully, launching a counterattack at the same time. His spell shot towards Draco like lightning, so fast that Draco barely had time to dodge.
Draco quickly dodged to the side, but the spell still grazed his arm. He let out a painful scream and staggered back a few steps.
"Damn it, you... how can you be so strong?" Draco looked at Lian in horror, his eyes filled with disbelief.
“Because I will not be bound by the honor and orders of my family,” Li An said coldly. “I have my own beliefs and goals, and that is the source of my strength.”
After saying that, Lian launched another attack. His spells, like a series of cannonballs, roared towards Draco. Draco frantically tried to defend himself, but was still forced back by Lian's attacks.
"No... Impossible! How could I lose to a bastard like you?" Draco roared madly, his eyes filled with despair and rage.
Under Lian's fierce attack, Draco finally couldn't hold on any longer. His body crashed heavily to the ground, and his wand fell to the side.
“You lost.” Lian walked up to Draco, looking down at him. “Now, can you tell me where the clues to the lost spellbook are?”
Draco glared at Lian and gritted his teeth, saying, "Don't even think about it! I'm not telling you!"
Li An sneered: "It seems you haven't come to terms with reality yet. But it's alright, I'll find it myself."
After saying that, Lian ignored Draco and turned back to continue searching for clues in the archives.
After a careful search, Li An finally found a tattered ledger in a hidden corner. He opened the ledger, which recorded the dark magic transactions of the pure-blood family over the years, and also hinted at the location of the lost magic book.
"This is it!" Li An exclaimed excitedly, his eyes gleaming with victory.
Draco, seeing that Lian had found the ledger, was filled with resentment and anger. He struggled to his feet, trying to snatch the ledger back: "Give me back the ledger!"
Lian easily dodged Draco's attack. Looking at Draco's disheveled appearance, he said sarcastically, "Save your breath. You're no longer in a position to oppose me."
“According to the ledger, the lost spellbook should be hidden in this ancient castle.” Lian frowned, his gaze fixed on the castle shrouded in darkness in the distance, and turned to Harry and Hermione beside him.
Harry nodded slightly, his hand unconsciously touching the wand at his waist, his eyes revealing a hint of tension and anticipation: "No matter what dangers lie ahead, we must stop the pure-blood family's conspiracy."
Hermione pushed up her glasses, her eyes gleaming with wisdom: "That's right, but we must be careful. This castle is sure to be full of unknown dangers."
The three slowly approached the castle, the surrounding air seeming to grow cold and heavy. Eerie vines climbed the castle walls, swaying in the wind and rustling softly, as if whispering ancient curses. The gates were tightly shut, covered in mysterious runes, emanating a faint aura of dark magic.
Chapter 283 is about Death Eaters!
Li An reached out and gently touched the door, a chill running through his fingertips. He took a deep breath and whispered, "This is it." As his words fell, the door slowly opened, and a putrid stench wafted out.
The three cautiously entered the castle, the dim light severely limiting their vision. In the tattered portraits hanging on the walls, the eyes of the figures seemed to gleam eerily in the darkness, as if watching their every move.
"Be careful, every step here could be dangerous." Li An lowered his voice, cautiously observing his surroundings, and treading very lightly.
Suddenly, a sinister laugh echoed from all directions, reverberating through the empty castle corridors. "Looks like we have uninvited guests," a cold voice from 023 rang out in the darkness.
"It's Death Eaters!" Harry quickly drew his wand, pointed it into the darkness, his body tense, ready to fight at any moment.
As soon as the words left his mouth, a group of Death Eaters dressed in black robes emerged from the shadows. Their faces wore eerie masks, and the wands in their hands gleamed with an evil light. At the same time, several enormous dark magical creatures roared and charged out. They were massive, their bodies shrouded in black mist, and their sharp fangs gleamed coldly in the dim light.
"Attack!" At the command of the leader of the Death Eaters, beams of black magic shot towards Lian and the others.
Li An's eyes sharpened, and he quickly activated the system to analyze the enemy's attack patterns and weaknesses. "Everyone be careful, spread out and take cover!" he shouted, while his body flashed to the side like a ghost, avoiding a deadly magic beam.
Harry chanted incantations, and a golden beam of light shot from the tip of his wand, colliding with the Death Eaters' dark magic in mid-air, creating a violent explosion. Hermione, meanwhile, calmly observed her surroundings, trying to find a way to break the magical trap.
"These Death Eaters are too cunning; we must find a way to exploit their weaknesses," Li An thought to himself as he dodged the attacks. His gaze swept quickly across the battlefield, and he suddenly noticed a slight gap in the coordination between the Death Eaters when they launched a group attack.
"Harry, focus your attack on the middle of them!" Lian shouted. Harry understood immediately and adjusted the direction of the attack, shooting a powerful beam of magic towards the center of the Death Eaters.
The Death Eaters clearly hadn't expected their attack to be detected. Several of them, unable to dodge in time, were struck by Harry's magic and instantly fell to the ground. The other Death Eaters showed a hint of panic upon seeing this, but quickly reorganized their attack.
Just then, a gigantic dark magical creature lunged at Li An, baring its fangs and claws. Li An quickly retreated a few steps, a cold glint flashing in his eyes. He gathered his inner energy in his hand and hurled it fiercely at the magical creature's eyes.
"Agh!" The magical creature let out a painful roar. Its eyes had been struck by the magical force, temporarily blinding it, and it spun wildly in place. The surrounding Death Eaters were thrown into disarray by this sudden turn of events, their attack rhythm disrupted.
"Now! Counterattack!" Li An shouted, charging towards the Death Eaters. His figure darted swiftly through the enemy ranks, exploiting weaknesses analyzed by the system to deliver fatal blows to the Death Eaters.
Chapter 284: Engaged in a Bitter Battle
Harry and Hermione were not to be outdone. Harry's magical attacks became increasingly fierce, while Hermione used her wisdom to cleverly break several magical traps, throwing the Death Eaters' attacks into chaos.
However, the Death Eaters were well-trained and quickly readjusted. Their attacks became even more ferocious, with dark magical creatures joining the fray, putting Lian and his companions in a fierce battle.
"Damn it, these guys are really tough to deal with." Harry gritted his teeth, his forehead covered in sweat. Although his magical attacks were powerful, he was gradually feeling overwhelmed by so many enemies.
Li An's expression also turned serious. He knew that if things continued like this, they would be defeated by the enemy sooner or later. His eyes quickly scanned the battlefield, trying to find a way to turn the tide of the battle.
Suddenly, he noticed a hidden magic circle on the castle wall. This magic circle emitted a faint light, seemingly out of place with the surrounding dark magical atmosphere.
"Hermione, look at that magic circle!" Lian shouted, pointing to the magic circle on the wall. "Can you break it?"
Hermione looked in the direction Li An pointed, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes: "I'll give it a try!" She quickly ran to the magic circle, carefully observing the runes on it, muttering incantations to herself.
Just as Hermione was breaking the magic circle, the Death Eaters realized their intentions and launched an even more frenzied attack. A giant magical spider descended from the ceiling and pounced on Hermione.
"Hermione, watch out!" Harry saw this and immediately turned around, attacking the magical spider with magic. However, the magical spider was extremely fast, and Harry's attack did not stop it.
In the nick of time, Li An rushed forward, his inner energy coalescing into a sharp blade, which he stabbed fiercely at the magic spider. "Pfft!" The magic spider's body was pierced by the blade, and green blood splattered all over the ground.
"Phew..." Hermione breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Lian with gratitude: "Thank you, Lian."
"Hurry, there's no time, break the magic circle quickly!" Li An urged.
Hermione nodded and focused her attention again on breaking the magic circle. Finally, just as the Death Eaters were about to launch another attack, the magic circle was successfully broken.
As the magic circle was broken, a powerful beam of light shot out from it, sweeping towards the Death Eaters and dark magic creatures. Wherever the light touched, the enemies screamed in agony as their bodies gradually dissipated.
"How is this possible?" The leader of the Death Eaters stared in horror at the scene before him, his face filled with disbelief.
"This is what will happen to you!" Li An said coldly, a hint of triumphant joy in his eyes.
Under the impact of the light, the defenses of the Death Eaters and dark magic creatures completely collapsed. They began to flee in all directions, and the battlefield descended into chaos.
0........
"Chase them! We can't let them get away!" Harry shouted, taking the lead in the pursuit. Lian and Hermione followed closely behind.
