Chapter 224 Both Sides Suffer Losses
On the other side of the battlefield, Kiki swiftly defeated the goatee Death Eater, but another Mediterranean man engaged her in guerrilla warfare.
Mediterranean quickly realized that the Cruciatus Curse, a spell driven by subjective energies like killing intent and hatred, would have no effect on Kiki. He immediately switched to fire and ice magic, using fire magic to attack the Sphinx and ice magic to attack Kiki.
The giant ice spikes that flew towards them could no longer be considered magical attacks; once they pierced a person, they would be considered physical damage. Kiki stubbornly took the hit head-on, and the ice spikes immediately dented the armor plates on her arm, making her arm very uncomfortable. But this also fully demonstrated that Mediterranean's tactics were completely effective.
A sinister smile crept across Mediterranean's lips. He unleashed a massive fireball, forcing Sphinx to push it away. After all, animals have an innate fear of fire. He then began chanting an even more powerful ice spell, seemingly already imagining the horrific scene of Kiki being crushed to death by ice spikes.
However, Kiki was clearly not going to let his trick succeed. Riding the Sphinx, she quickly created distance. Her revolver had a much longer range than the Mediterranean's magic, and the Sphinx's movement speed was also much faster. Clearly, creating distance and kiting was the safest way.
"Bang! Bang!" Two shots rang out. Although Mediterranean carefully hid behind rocks and trees, the ice energy he had just gathered was scattered by Qiqi's two shots, which also broke a fruit tree as thick as a bowl, almost knocking Mediterranean down.
Kiki rode the Sphinx around the Mediterranean Sea, maintaining a distance of more than 100 meters. The Mediterranean Sea gritted its teeth, activated its Phantom Shift again, and instantly appeared directly in front of Kiki. It "rubbed" its hands together to create a huge block of ice, intending to take down Kiki in one move.
However, a smile appeared on Kiki's lips. This was the moment she had been waiting for. The instant the ice magic of the Mediterranean was unleashed, Kiki and the Sphinx suddenly separated. Kiki jumped into the grass to the side, while the Sphinx pounced in another direction.
It's important to understand that ice spikes, a type of magic that targets a specific object, require the wizard to concentrate on the target and then lock onto it using their mental power to control the magic to hit the target. However, in the instant that Kiki and the Sphinx suddenly separated, Mediterranean hesitated very naturally, and this small hesitation caused the huge ice block to lose its aim.
The two were less than thirty meters apart. At such a close distance, Qiqi didn't even need to aim; she could rely on her sense of touch. She had just landed and rolled over when she raised her hand and fired, hitting Mediterranean in the waist and abdomen with a single shot. The immense power almost destroyed Mediterranean's ribs and liver. He screamed and fell into a pool of blood.
The Sphinx rushed over without hesitation and devoured his soft internal organs, a scene that was extremely gruesome. In fact, many magical creatures eat people, especially dragons, basilisks, and water monsters. Some species of dragons even live by eating humans.
Kiki ignored her mount's movements; it would naturally return to assist her in the battle once it was full. She quickly retrieved her 98K and other equipment she had hidden nearby, then tore off her hairband and shook it in front of her eyes. A gentle breeze from the southeast blew in, causing her hairband to flutter in the wind.
On the other side, seeing Harry's fighting spirit, Bai Lin no longer protected him behind him. After all, he was not Harry's babysitter, and Harry was destined to become a fighter and take control of his own destiny.
Harry gestured to Bai Lin, indicating that they should attack from both sides. Bai Lin nodded, and the two quickly separated, circling around to Voldemort's two sides.
Harry's protagonist aura is truly powerful. As soon as they separated, the two Death Eaters who discovered their actions ignored Harry and instead unleashed a barrage of explosive dark magic at Bai Lin, as if they were afraid that Bai Lin would leave with a complete corpse.
The Water Shield's energy was rapidly depleted. On land, water energy wasn't as concentrated, making it impossible for Bai Lin to become invulnerable. Just as the Water Shield shattered, a fist-sized sprite flew out from nowhere, circled Bai Lin, and created a golden magical shield for him. It was none other than Sifgar.
Catherine still couldn't manifest in the real world and could only rely on Sifugar to provide Bai Lin with assistance. Even so, this "divine protection" was practically an invincible shield against the magic of ordinary dark wizards, and it didn't even have the effect of stopping Bai Lin's progress.
However, Bai Lin raised his right hand, and a skull made of death energy immediately appeared in his palm. He pushed it towards a Death Eater in front of him, and the death-wrapped green energy wrapped around the skull and slammed it into the opponent's chest.
This was the first time Bai Lin had used Death Coil to kill a human. The Death Eater's protective magic only slightly reduced the power of Death Coil, but a large crater was still blasted open in his chest. His life force was instantly destroyed by the death energy, and he rolled his eyes back and died.
Bai Lin's side had the upper hand, and the battle on the Aurors' side was also one-sided. As long as Dumbledore could suppress Voldemort, today would be a great victory.
But at that moment, a disheveled female member of the Order of the Phoenix suddenly had a strange purple light emanating from her eyes.
The woman with the flowing hair remained expressionless as she coldly retreated from the ranks of the Order of the Phoenix. Even as a colleague was blown off his shoulder by a Death Eater's Thunder Explosion right before her eyes, his blood splattering all over her as he collapsed and howled in agony, she ignored him completely, stepping over the pool of blood as she walked toward the gates of Riddle House.
Although her behavior was very strange—if you said she was afraid of dying and wanted to escape, she walked unhurriedly, without any sign of panic; if you said she had been hit, she wasn't exactly clean, after all, she had just been exchanging spells with the Death Eaters and had been affected to some extent, but she wasn't seriously injured and showed no signs of exhaustion. However, the scene was filled with explosions, flames, and screams; everyone was bloodthirsty and their heads were buzzing, and no one noticed that something was wrong with her.
Dumbledore, dressed in a greyish-white robe, attracted nearly half of the firepower with his tall stature. However, he did not use any highly destructive magic to harm the Death Eaters, or even Voldemort, the pig-headed monster. His eyes showed no hatred or contempt, but rather looked at him peacefully. One could sense that Dumbledore's heart was also filled with sorrow.
Looking back at Dumbledore's youth, he was also exceptionally talented and arrogant. He once believed that wizards should not hide but should be above ordinary people. Therefore, in "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them," Dumbledore and Grindelwald formed a blood pact and developed a relationship that went beyond friendship.
We highly recommend this book to you: *The Hogwarts Summoning Guide*. You can read it here.
Grindelwald and Dumbledore searched for the Deathly Hallows, hoping to become masters of death and use this power to lead a wizarding revolution, overthrow the Statute of Secrecy, and establish a new global order led by wise and powerful wizards and sorceresses. This seemed very similar to Voldemort's ambitions, but they originally wanted to achieve their goals non-violently. However, Grindelwald gradually became like Voldemort, becoming self-centered and advocating violence, which led Dumbledore to part ways with him.
Tom Riddle was once a student highly regarded by Dumbledore. Dumbledore saw his younger self in him, and also thought of his lover imprisoned in the tower, and his sister who was accidentally killed during his duel with Grindelwald. For these reasons, Dumbledore has refused to use offensive magic for many years. Even when fighting the most vicious dark wizards, he will use defensive magic to protect himself and those around him, and then try to subdue the enemy.
It was because of Dumbledore's philosophy that Hogwarts offered the unique Defense Against the Dark Arts course. This certainly reflects Dumbledore's greatness and benevolence, but from Bai Lin's perspective, having no sword in hand and having a sword but not using it are two completely different things. No matter how strong the shields in the hands of Hogwarts students are, there are still things they cannot defend against, whether open or hidden.
Even in today's direct confrontation with Voldemort, Dumbledore continues to cast defensive spells to protect the members of the Order of the Phoenix and to limit and suppress Voldemort's fiery dragons.
Dumbledore's mind was also in turmoil. He was racking his brains, trying to figure out how to subdue the resurrected Voldemort and the many Death Eaters present. He realized that Scrimgeour's side had gained the upper hand. As long as he could hold off Voldemort, the Aurors would be able to control the entire scene, and Voldemort would only have one option: to escape. At this moment, he was unaware that, apart from the half of the soul fragment on Harry's body, all the Horcruxes had been destroyed by the White Scale team.
Just then, the woman with the loose hair appeared behind Dumbledore. Her expression first became distorted and ferocious, and then her skin peeled off her head as if she were molting. The scene was extremely bizarre and terrifying. Of course, if Bai Lin were here, he would definitely recognize that this was a missionary from the Church of Hastur.
The woman's head quickly transformed into an octopus monster, with more than a dozen tentacles flying around it, resembling a Gorgon. At that moment, a member of the Order of the Phoenix, who was not far away, noticed her transformation and screamed in terror. But soon, a tentacle shot out and pierced through his mouth, penetrating his entire head.
The Hasturist's target was still Dumbledore; he desperately wanted to parasitize Dumbledore—the most powerful wizard on Earth—so that he could immediately become an equal to General Gracchus.
Dumbledore, of course, noticed the commotion behind him. He turned around abruptly, and what he saw made the over 100-year-old man, who had seen many strange things in the world, so shocked that his jaw almost dropped. The tentacles were extremely powerful, but they were still blocked by Dumbledore's protective spell, as if they had hit a steel wall.
The Hastur cultists screamed and launched a mental attack. Old Deng was also skilled in mind magic and wouldn't be instantly pulled into the Shadow Dream, but he still felt a jolt in his forehead and saw stars.
His dizziness was not a big deal; it wouldn't be easy for the Hastur cultists to control him. But the water dragon controlled by Dumbledore suddenly collapsed, shattering into ordinary spring water that spilled onto the ruins of the old house.
Voldemort was overjoyed. He let out a nasty howl and unleashed a powerful Crucifixion spell at Dumbledore's back. The emerald green magical energy struck Dumbledore's magical shield, shattering it completely.
At the same time, Harry and Bai Lin attacked from both sides simultaneously. Harry shouted, "Ixpariyamas! (Disarm you!)" He slowed down the speed of his incantation, striving to make each syllable powerful and resonant. The red energy on his wand was exceptionally powerful, and he unleashed the strongest disarming spell of his life.
Bai Lin then used a new skill. Sifgar, wand in hand, flew into the air. Bai Lin thrust his hands forward, continuously channeling his magic into Sifgar's body. The little angel radiated a dazzling golden light, and she cried out in a clear voice, "Sword of Heaven! Descend!"
A giant golden sword formed high in the sky, like a condensation of sunlight, a manifestation of the energy of justice and order. With the force of thunder, it descended from the sky and plunged straight into Voldemort's forehead.
Dumbledore and Voldemort were hit almost simultaneously. Dumbledore was struck by the Crucifixion Curse that pierced through his shield. The excruciating pain caused the centenarian to groan in agony, and he collapsed to the ground, his vision going black.
Voldemort was hit in the right hand by Harry's Disarming Charm. He shuddered in pain, but his protective magic was quite strong. His wand did not immediately leave his hand, but his right hand was stiff and numb as if it had been electrocuted. A stronger attack was less than ten meters away from his head.
He endured the excruciating pain and numbness, retreating rapidly. The Sword of Heaven grazed his body and struck the ground. Although it didn't cut him in two, the Sword of Heaven shattered like fragile glass. The shattered golden light scattered like countless flying knives. Even with Voldemort's powerful protective spells, several fragments struck him and penetrated deeply into his body.
Voldemort was severely injured and his mind was in utter panic. For the first time, he felt so close to death, and he could clearly sense that fragments of his soul had been found in this world. If he were killed now, he might never be able to be resurrected.
Voldemort, disregarding his pursuit of Dumbledore and the lives of his Death Eater minions, his pig-like head twitched, and he stretched out his left hand, activating Apparition. His mind was now consumed by only one thought: escape. For wizards of his caliber, wandless spellcasting was not difficult; it was simply that using a suitable wand made it easier to gather magic and increase accuracy, sometimes purely out of habit.
However, when he thought he could teleport to a distance of ten or twenty miles in an instant, he was horrified to find that he had teleported to nothingness, as if something in the air was blocking his teleportation intention.
Kiki, upwind in the distance, had already thrown several disassembled grenades by the roadside. The powder inside was scattered into the air and carried by the wind towards the wizards' battlefield.
