Study Days at Hogwarts

  Chapter 1367 The Burning of Azkaban

  The pitch-black night was suddenly torn apart by a flash of white light. Before the remnants of the white light completely dissipated, it seemed that countless black shadows flew across the rough sea and plunged into the sea area shrouded in strong winds and rainstorms.

The cold rain slapped **** the face, piercing into the skin like needles, even though the body was covered with a thick waterproof cloak, it still couldn't block the bone-chilling chill in the torrential rain, and it was completely The original excitement of the participants in this operation was extinguished, but no one complained about such a ghostly weather. Before they came, they had already been informed of the predicament they were about to face.

  At this moment, the people riding on the broomsticks only need to focus on the light in front of them, and follow Albert's guidance to the legendary Azkaban.

I don't know how long it took, when the body was about to become stiff from the cold rain, the light that was in charge of guiding everyone forward stopped without warning, and then a peaceful voice sounded in everyone's ears : "Close your eyes."

A few seconds later, a dazzling ball of light exploded in the dark sky, allowing them to see clearly the island in front of them and the fortress standing above the island. It was the legendary prison for wizards: Azka class.

   "Attention, the dementors are coming!"

Albert's voice pierced through the rain again and rang directly in everyone's ears, followed by a silver ball of light, which suddenly lit up in the darkness, and continued to spread dazzling light to the surroundings, as if forming an invisible Like a shield, the dementors that were rushing towards them were ejected.

   Dedalus Diggle looked at the white ball of light that was constantly emitting waves, and murmured, "Will this really not attract the enemy?"

  He felt that he was already reckless, but Albert's actions now made him feel even more reckless.

   What is this going to do, directly challenge the entire Azkaban?

   At the moment when Azkaban became a wizarding prison, I am afraid that no one has broken into this wizarding prison as violently as they did.

  Even the mighty mysterious person controls this place by instigating against the dementors.

   "Summon the Patronus."

   Albert's calm voice sounded again in everyone's ears.

  The intruders who were stranded in the storm took a step back. They held the broomstick in one hand and waved their wands, trying to summon the Patronus to fight against the dementors rushing this way.

Only a few patron saints appeared in the first round. Obviously, even after special training, they were still unavoidably affected when surrounded by a large number of dementors, let alone summoning guardian spirits in such a harsh environment. god.

  At this moment, the members of the Defense Association finally realized why Albert didn't let other members who were not good at the Patronus Charm follow.

  Because they are really likely to be directly cumbersome.

   "The number of dementors has increased again!"

  Kingsley looked at the dementors trying to surround them with an extremely ugly face. During the short time when Voldemort ruled the British wizarding world, the dementors were beginning to multiply crazily.

   This is by no means a good thing.

  Because so far, wizards have failed to find a way to completely eliminate the dementors.

   "Don't worry, think about your training content carefully, this is not a difficult task."

   Albert asked everyone to gather the Patronus, and try to help other companions eliminate the negative effects of the dementors on them.

  With the help of the Patronus, the difficulty for others to summon the Patronus has been greatly reduced. At least the influence of the Dementors on them is being gradually weakened. When everyone tried to summon the Patronus for the second time, several silver figures appeared above the sky.

   After confirming that more than half of the people who had successfully summoned the Patronus, Albert stopped waiting and began to direct people to use the Patronus to clear the way for themselves, leading them to fly directly to the island ahead.

   There are no enemies, it should be said that no wizards come out to obstruct them.

  As for the guardian dementors of Azkaban, under the protection of many patron saints, the advantages of this group of dementors are gone, and they don't even have a good way to take the invaders.

  It turns out that the storm, the isolated island and the huge number of dementors constitute Azkaban's impregnable defense line. Even if a wizard who is good at using the Patronus Charm breaks in here, he may not be able to successfully summon the Patronus in the icy torrential rain. Even if he succeeds in summoning the Patronus in the body, he may still be overwhelmed by this large group of dementors.

   Patronus restrains Dementors, but when the number of enemies is large enough, it is still useless.

  But this time the intruders were all good at the Patronus Charm, especially Albert's Patronus was so powerful that they instinctively kept the dementors away, and did not try to stop them from descending to the fortress on the island.

   This is... Azkaban?

  The ancient fortress on the island is very dilapidated, but it can be seen that it has been repaired here.

  The island outside the fortress is covered with graves, the number is frighteningly large, and even many skeletons have been completely exposed.

"ah!"

  Suddenly a girl in the team uttered a sharp cry, which startled the other companions, causing the two patron saints who were on guard against the dementors to disappear directly.

   "Quiet, that's just a bunch of corpses!"

   Albert glanced at the group of pale corpses chasing below the team on the island from the corner of his eye, and said in a calm tone.

  Most people's faces were very ugly. They all guessed that the source of this group of ghouls was the Muggles that the Death Eaters got to feed the dementors. After they were completely consumed by the dementors, they were used by the Death Eaters as infernal waste.

   "Hold on, we're going to land directly at the main gate of that fortress." Albert frowned, looking at the increasingly unstable patron saint around him, and reminded him with a slight frown.

Fortunately, they brought enough people and summoned enough patron saints. Even if two patron saints disappeared and the power of some patron saints was weakened, they still descended smoothly to the entrance of the fortress half-surrounded by flames. The group of Yin corpses had to be blocked from the flames and could not advance an inch.

When Kingsley used a spell to open the main gate of the fortress, leading Sirius, Lupine and a team from the famous association to break into Azkaban first to open the way for others, the dementors who stayed in Azkaban were completely destroyed. Enraged, they tried to extinguish the flames at the main entrance, leaving the Inferi to deal with the damned intruders.

   Seeing the gradually extinguished flames, several members of the Order of the Phoenix raised their wands one after another, trying to prevent the wall of fire blocking the corpses from being completely extinguished. They couldn't deal with the group of corpses and those hateful dementors at the same time.

  Once such a huge number of ghost corpses overwhelm the team, it will really be over.

   "Damn it, go in quickly, we have to seal the door again, and block this group of ghosts outside!"

   "Calm down, Cedric brings your men to block the dementors!"

   Albert reminded Cedric that besides Albert, he was the one who used the Patronus Charm best in the Defense Association.

After Albert's patron saint disappeared, people could clearly feel the ominousness and chill coming towards them. The dementors became ready to move again and attacked them, but the group led by Cedric Several people stopped.

"what are you planning to do?"

   Members of the Order of the Phoenix cast puzzled glances at Albert, shouldn't they rush into the fort at this time?

  Under the influence of the storm and the dementors, the power of the flames was almost reduced to the minimum, and it was impossible to block this large group of corpses.

  Under the astonished gazes of the people, Albert waved his wand lightly, spraying fiery waves of fire directly from the tip of the wand.

  The flames completely submerged the group of corpses in front of them in an instant. Even under the pressure of the storm and the dementors, the tumbling fire wave still did not get smaller and spread towards the entire island in an unstoppable trend.

  The island in the storm was set on fire.
