Harry Potter’s Book of Sin
Chapter 866 Trapped Haifa City
There is an English Muggle proverb that says, "If you always lie down with a dog, you will inevitably catch fleas (youillgetupithfleas①)".
Fortunately, Lupin is usually not worried about fleas, after all, he is still a wolf himself!
It's a pity that fleas are still easy to deal with, and I'm afraid that Sirius's restless temperament is on top.Since the big scene in Haifa this time, Lupin had a bad feeling, so he sent back the request for temporary return along with the ciphertext without saying a word.
However, in a short period of time, his injury did not allow him to use convenient means of movement such as Phantom Shift and door keys. If he really wanted to go back, the two of them had to wait at least one or two days.
But just such a period of one or two days has caused Lupin and Sirius to suffer.
Lupin had previously predicted that he thought the International Wizarding Federation would soon send people this time, but what he didn't expect was that Haierbo would move faster than the Federation.
Only on the second night after the fire in the city, nearly three hundred unidentified wizards suddenly appeared in the city center, grouped in pairs, and spread out quickly.
These wizards looked a lot like the small group of attackers before. Although they couldn't see clearly because of their costumes, they were generally short in height.
But contrary to their figures, they are surprisingly strange and powerful in the use of black magic.
Based on the experience of Sirius and Lupin fighting with them, it seems that all of these wizards can skillfully use the silent spell, and their power is not so powerful.
And, more importantly, the guys who hide their heads and show their tails use dark magic that no one else has ever seen.
There is just one thing that makes people feel concerned, that is-the magic of these short wizards seems to be printed out of a mold, and it feels exactly the same.
In fact, if the number of people is smaller, like last time with a maximum of 20 or 30 attackers, Sirius would not be too worried if he is prepared.The reason why Lupin was seriously injured was actually because of a sneak attack.
But if there are more people...
"... Something is wrong outside. I just saw a lot of dark shadows flying in the air. I remember that when we were attacked last time, those wizards of unknown origin could fly in the air without the help of anything."
At this moment, Sirius hurriedly returned from the window and whispered his discovery to Lupin who was lying on the sofa.
"Are you sure those dark shadows don't use flying broomsticks?" Lupin frowned, "It's cloudy tonight, it's so dark outside...Did you see clearly?"
"Not 100% sure, but it should be correct."
"Then where did they fly?"
Looking at Sirius's expression with confidence, Lupin would naturally no longer doubt.And precisely because the wizards were mostly from Helbo, he naturally did not dare to neglect, and quickly sat up with some difficulty on the sofa cushion.
"It's to the southwest, maybe to the coast-it's not accurate," Sirius said immediately, "but I think they must have come from the city center."
"How many people?" Lupin continued to ask softly.
Upon hearing this, Sirius immediately confirmed the image that still remained in his mind.
Without the moonlight and stars, the night sky was indeed pitch black, but since those figures were not flying high, he could still tell the difference.
"A lot," he thought for a while, "I can see at least ten people, maybe more... They passed by two by two, and several pairs passed in succession!"
"Ok……"
Lupin frowned for a moment, but quickly shook his head.
"What does Helbo think... he intends to get ahead of the federation team, first--"
"Clang!"
Lupin hasn’t finished speaking yet.
"Boom!"
Because Sirius is still facing the direction of the window at the moment, Lupin sitting on the sofa first reacted.The pain in the abdomen prevented him from standing up quickly, but it did not prevent him from pulling out his wand.
Suddenly, the cloak wizard who rushed in front seemed to crash into an invisible force, and even the speed suddenly slowed down.
This is a silent obstacle spell that casts extremely fast!
I remember that Lupin was the professor of Defence Against the Dark Arts at Hogwarts. There may be other reasons for that time-for example, Dumbledore seemed to want him to contain Sirius who suddenly escaped from prison.
But from this hand alone, it can be seen that he still has his true ability to serve as a professor.
It's just that the range of an obstacle spell is not too large, and being able to stop one at the moment the opponent enters the house is already the limit.
Seeing that his companion was trapped, the next assailant immediately shrank and took a half step to the side, decisively treating his companion as a human shield.
And immediately behind was a pile of fine black needles spilling out towards Lupin.
Those black needles with the length of the index finger are all formed by unknown black magic, flying fast, and the needle tip is quite sharp, and once they hit something, they will burst immediately.
This kind of black magic had been seen by Lupin and Sirius the last time, so they knew the power of it.
What's more, they didn't hit this trick last time. Could it still work this time?
When Sirius, who turned hurriedly, discovered this scene, his movements were also fast.He pointed his stick to the dining table next to him, and then slid in front of Lupin, and the table accurately stopped the black magic needle.
At the same time, Lupin is certainly not idle.
After enduring the aching abdomen and letting himself roll off the sofa, he lay on his back and stretched out his wand.
Even if there was a dining table in front of him, he couldn't see the scene in front of him at that moment, but he still chanted the next spell according to the location in his memory.
Soon, only to see the tip of his rod flashing fire, it was undoubtedly a coma spell.But he still didn't send it after the spell took effect, delaying the release of the spell for more than a second in some way.
Don't underestimate this second, it was the time when the opponent's black needle pierced the table and caused an explosion.And when a good dining table was torn apart by those dozens of fine needles, Lupin's powerful coma spell quickly passed through a large swath of sawdust and went straight to the opponent.
Because the dining table thrown by Sirius just now blocked his vision, the attacker obviously did not notice Lupin's movements.And when he saw the flash of fire, it was too late to escape.
"boom!"
At the moment that the wizard was hit by the Stunning Curse, he flew backwards and slammed into the wall.
Naturally, Sirius and Lupin were not interested in admiring the scene of each other sliding down from the wall. After they worked together to solve one of them, they immediately focused their attention on the original one.
The assailant who had just started has already escaped from the influence of the obstacle curse. Seeing him raise his hand again, it is obvious that he is going to strike back.
Upon seeing this, Sirius cast an iron armor curse on him. On the other hand, Lupin also immediately thought of the choices that wizards would often make in duels.
But the moment he raised the wand, the sight he saw from the corner of his eye made him give up this idea-at the root of the wall by the window, the attacker who was first "stunned" by the two cooperation stood up again!
"go!"
Lupin knew the strength of the coma spell he had just now. If that didn't make the opponent fall into a coma at once, it meant that the situation was not good.
When Sirius heard Lupin's abrupt reminder, he was just taken aback, but he didn't hesitate in his actions.
Out of trust in Lupin, his best friend, he did not hesitate to give up preparing for the next offensive spell, raising his wand and creating a large cloud of smoke.
When the smoke was dissipated by the opponent, he and Lupin disappeared into this living room.
The two attackers looked around here twice, and naturally they found nothing, but the two who lost the target didn't seem to care, turned around and left quietly.
Speaking of it, the two short wizards didn't seem to have said a word from beginning to end.
...
Of course Sirius and Lupin could not go far, they were actually hiding behind the sofa.Only because of the Immortal Yin Potion provided by Maca, the two successfully concealed their existence.
This is the benefit of the Immortal Concealed Potion. If you use other invisibility methods such as the Phantom Curse, it really may not be able to escape those two strange and strange magical abilities.
"Ahem, it seems to be really gone..."
The two waited in place for a long time, but they were slightly relieved when they saw that the other party did not return suddenly.
If the fight continued just now, it was definitely their side who would suffer-after all, Lupin's current state really couldn't support an overly complicated battle.
"Are you okay?" Sirius frowned, worried.
But Lupin shook his head decisively even though he was holding his abdomen in pain.
"Compared with this injury, I am more concerned about the two attackers..." He said solemnly, "You have also seen that these two tonight and the four last time are obviously different. If you change It’s impossible for the last sneak attacker to take my coma spell with his body and get up so quickly!"
"Well," Sirius nodded, "What's more terrible is that there are more than ten guys like what I saw just now..."
When Lu Ping heard the words, he clutched his abdomen and fell into deep thought.
