boom!

A thunderbolt landed on the protective cover outside Hogwarts. The protective cover that had been crumbling in the previous bombing has finally reached its limit, and finally turned into little fragments in the eyes of everyone, disappearing in the air. .

But its existence is not meaningless, and it has bought precious time for Hogwarts teachers and students.

The moment Hogwarts was invaded, Professor McGonagall was awakened. She rolled over from her bed in her dormitory and sat up, dressed faster than she could imagine, and came to the window.

She looked solemnly at the fire at the school gate.

Dumbledore opened Hogwarts' protection before leaving, and also set up defenses around the castle, but these methods can only be delayed and cannot be held for long, so she must make a decision now.

Professor McGonagall walked to the door of the dormitory and raised his wand. The next moment, from the tip of her staff, three silver cats with speckles in the shape of glasses around their eyes jumped out. They were the patron saints of Professor McGonagall. The three patron saints swiftly ran back, casting a silver light on the corridor.

Professor McGonagall wants to contact the other three deans to discuss the plan.

After the three patron saints had run away, Professor McGonagall suddenly remembered that the other two schools of magic seemed to have been involved, so she sent another patron saint to Beauxbatons and Durmstrang.

After doing these things, Professor McGonagall waited quietly for the arrival of the dean and the principals, and secretly calculated how many cards he had left.

After weighing the pros and cons, Professor McGonagall had his own idea, and the deans rushed over.

A soft footstep sounded in the corridor, and Professor McGonagall looked towards the sound and found it was Snape.

"Someone is invading Hogwarts, we need to do something," said Professor McGonagall.

"Of course." Snape was silent after just saying this, he was waiting for the other two deans.

Soon, Professor Flitwick and Professor Sprout were outside Professor McGonagall's office.

"Minerva...Severus...what happened?" Professor Flitwick ran out of breath.

"Hogwarts has been invaded."

The two immediately took a deep breath.

"Where's Professor Dumbledore?" Flitwick asked sharply. "If Albus—"

"He's at the Ministry of Magic now," Snape answered. "He's carrying out his own plans."

Flitwick frowned immediately, and Professor Sprout next to him said solemnly: "Then we need to delay until Albus returns..."

"That's right, Pomona." Professor McGonagall glanced at his friend. "I think the common rooms of each college should be blocked. If there are students willing to come out to fight, only senior students should be allowed to participate in the war."

"This is natural." Professor McGonagall's proposal was supported by all the deans.

"Hagrid, I need you to help me mobilize those magical animal tribes in the Forbidden Forest." After making arrangements for the students, Professor McGonagall looked at Hagrid, who came in a hurry.

Hagrid was stunned for a moment, then turned around and went back to the Forbidden Forest.

He didn't like to use his good friends in the Forbidden Forest, but if it was to defend Hogwarts, he was willing to go.

As for the two principals, Maxim and Karkaroff, Professor McGonagall also made arrangements for them: once the protective cover is broken, the students of the two schools can be evacuated immediately. The target of the invaders is Hogwarts Castle, and they will not face them at the first time. This is their best time to evacuate.

"Okay, but I will stay here and fight side by side with you." Madame Maxime didn't hesitate, just made a decision after a little thought. She wanted to stay at Hogwarts with some of the adult students and help Hogwarts teachers and students guard the school.

As for the reason? More help, less help, less help, that's all.

Mrs. Maxim's statement made Karkaroff's face turn green: Olim, you are a human being! But what can I do?

Karkaroff felt that Madame Maxime must have been kicked in the head by her Pegasus. How about going home now? He Karkaroff is a man who even Durmstrang can't protect, how could he stay and kill the people at Hogwarts? You are the only one who sells favors, right?

Wait, sell favors?

Karkaroff understood.

This is Albus Dumbledore's school, so why worry about him?

"Where's Professor Dumbledore?" But out of caution, he asked where Dumbledore was going.

"he's not here."

"He's not here? This is his school!" Karkaroff was anxious when he heard it: Hogwarts' strongest fighting force is actually absent? This group can't fight! Don't stay here for long.

Professor McGonagall glanced at Karkaroff's well-covered arm by the robe, and this gaze scalded Karkaroff as if it was warm, making him uncomfortable for a while.

"He's fighting that person." Professor McGonagall said coldly.

Karkaroff suddenly shuddered. He didn't care about his face anymore. The enemies were Voldemort and Death Eaters. Is there anything else to say? Run fast.

Karkaroff had only one thought: to sail away.

So he didn't even bother to say a few words to Professor McGonagall, and ran to Durmstrang's ship without looking back.

Madam Maxime looked at Karkaroff's back with contempt, then turned her head and told Professor McGonagall that she would be back in a while.

"Thank you very much." Professor McGonagall said sincerely. She kept walking and went directly to Gryffindor Tower. As Deputy Headmaster of Hogwarts, she has so much to do.

At this time, the common rooms of the various Hogwarts colleges were already frying.

The generals and the purgers made a lot of noise outside, waking many little wizards from their dreams. Soon after they woke up, they learned of such a thunderbolt.

Everyone fell into a brief panic, but the deans quickly stabilized everyone's emotions.

"Hogwarts Castle was built for war," Professor Sprout looked at the students of Hufflepuff College surrounded by him and patiently comforted them: "The structure of the castle is extremely complicated, and the entrance to the lounge is very complicated. Hidden by clever magic, intruders can't get in."

The four founders of Hogwarts considered the possibility of Hogwarts being invaded when they built the castle, so they made the structure of the castle extremely complicated, so complicated that it may take a week for freshmen to enter. Recognize the way back to the common room. The stairs here will move around, and there may be secret doors under every mural. Even the students who have been here for seven years will not dare to pat their chests and guarantee that they have mastered most of the secret passages.

These are all protective measures in preparation for war.

As for the entrance to the common room, it was perfectly hidden. For thousands of years, the entrance to the Hufflepuff common room, whose location was known only to Hufflepuff Academy students, was hidden in a pile of wine barrels, and Gryffindor rested. The fat lady at the entrance of the room looks like an ordinary mural from the outside. The entrances to the Ravenclaw and Slytherin lounges are slightly more prominent, but not so exaggerated as to have signage signs, they are all tucked away in a corner of the castle.

I don't know why, even if the entrance to the Gryffindor lounge is opened, the back passage still needs to crawl in. It is easy to defend and difficult to attack. As long as the little wizards keep calm, they can survive this disaster in the lounge safe and sound.

After Sprout finished speaking, there was a brief silence in the common room. It was a short while before Cedric stepped forward and broke the silence. He asked, "Professor, we can't just do nothing and let the invaders sway on the land of Hogwarts, right?"

As soon as these words came out, it immediately became a situation of excitement. The Hufflepuff students seemed to have found the backbone, venting their emotions in a vain manner.

The students were quite dissatisfied with the invasion of outsiders.

Professor Sprout went to great lengths to quiet the students.

"The seniors can go out with me - if you're not in senior, just go back to the dormitory and rest, and everything will be back to normal in the morning!"

Some Badger Academy students who were not in their senior year showed unwilling expressions.

The scenes in the other three houses were not too different from what happened in the Hufflepuff lounge, except that there were more or less people willing to stand up to defend Hogwarts.

The students of Slytherin Academy obediently went back to the dormitory to rest, while some senior students who met the age limit in Ravenclaw stood up and were willing to defend the sovereignty of Hogwarts with the professors. Ranffindor…

"Go back to me!" Professor McGonagall looked at the crowd of people in front of him, his pupils shrunk.

More than half of Gryffindor's students are willing to come out and fight the invaders, and if the scope is expanded to third-year students and above, the proportion will be even more alarming. Professor McGonagall had to forcibly expel the underage students who had mixed into the team.

"Colin Creevey, get out! And you, Longbottom...Fred—"

"Professor, I'm a sixth-grade student!" Fred shouted in dissatisfaction, "I'm not eligible for the Triwizard Tournament, are you not eligible now?"

"If you were a little more mature, I wouldn't think you two were still children at your age." Professor McGonagall sent Fred back to the team.

This made the twin brothers beam with excitement - it doesn't matter if you miss the Triwizard Tournament, the defense of Hogwarts will not be absent!

The senior students lined up in a long line and walked out of the common room under the admiration and envy of the younger students. They will gather in the auditorium and wait for the next instructions from the professors.

There was also a mess in Durmstrang's ship and Beauxbatons' carriage. Madame Maxime loudly announced her plan, and quickly determined the list of people who were willing to stay. Including Fleur Delacour, a total of five Beauxbatons were willing to stay and fight, which surprised Madame Maxime.

"Isn't it our duty to help each other? Besides, they have taken care of them for nearly a school year." Furong said in a normal tone, as if she was talking about a trivial matter.

"Very good." Madame Maxime was very happy, and she was quite worried that no student would respond to her. Fortunately, her children did not disappoint her.

Compared to the excitement in the various colleges and Beauxbatons, the atmosphere on the Durmstrang ship was very bad.

"Professor Karkaroff, why did you wake us up in the middle of the night and start the big boat?" Krum looked puzzled. He stared at his headmaster with those falcon-like eyes, waiting for a reply.

"Victor, my dear Victor, there's an attack on Hogwarts, it's no longer safe. I'm taking you back to Durmstrang in safety, as headmaster. Obligation." Karkaroff thought about his speech on the way back to the big ship, and it was naturally high-sounding to move out at this time.

"Are we just leaving? What about the teachers and students at Hogwarts?" Krum's two thick eyebrows were twisted together.

"That's Dumbledore's business, hurry up to anchor!" Karkaroff patiently reassured Krum, and then urged the other students to start the ship.

As soon as the ship was launched, he could take the students back to Durmstrang. Next, he has to pay more attention to the situation here...

It's just that I failed to run away last time, can I really escape successfully this time? Karkaroff suddenly felt that his future was bleak. He could only pray that Dumbledore would win.

At the headmaster's orders, some students moved, but Krum remained in place.

"Is there anything else?" The busy figures of the students made Karkaroff feel a lot better, so he even had time to care about Krum's mental state.

"Professor, I want to stay here." After thinking for a moment, Krum made a decision, "There are my friends here, and there is justice here."

Karkaroff: ?

"Victor, you're crazy, you're going to die here!" He lowered his voice, almost roaring at Krum.

"I know."

"But you're still going?" Karkaroff stared at Krum, as if he had known the student the first day.

Krum responded with silence.

"Get out, get out!" Karkaroff waved his hand violently, almost hitting Krum's chin, "Don't delay sailing."

Krum left. Several of his close friends disembarked with him.

As soon as they came to the edge of the Black Lake, they saw that the ship of their alma mater was diving a little bit.

A short wizard shrugged his shoulders, looked at Krum and asked, "How do we get back after this battle? We don't know where the school is."

"Let's live first." Krum didn't want to think about this.

Krum took his friends to the Hogwarts Great Hall. When they came in, there were already a lot of people here.

Sprout, Flitwick, and McGonagall each led their students to stand in the auditorium. Mrs. Maxime and her students also took up a small area, and only Snape stood alone in the corner. .

"Professor Snape, where are your students?" Looking at Snape alone, Mrs. Maxime was a little confused, "If they have other arrangements, it's better to get in touch with us in advance, so—"

Mrs. Maxim subconsciously thought that the students of Slytherin Academy had some special mission, so they did not appear in the auditorium.

However, after hearing what Mrs. Maxim said, Snape's face suddenly became extremely ugly.

He didn't come alone because there was a big chess game to play, but simply because there were no students in Slytherin House willing to come out to protect Hogwarts.

Madame Maxime's face also became strange: Even the French are willing to fight on the land of Hogwarts, and the huge Slytherin Academy is not willing to come out alone?

Snape:…

Don't talk, don't talk!

In normal times, Professor McGonagall must sneer at this "old enemy", but now is not the time to fight. She briefly explained the division of tasks, and then asked everyone to start preparing for the war.

Professor McGonagall's style of play is very simple: professors take their students to occupy key positions to block the enemy. As for the favorable combat positions, it is naturally the three towers of Ravenclaw Tower, Astronomy Tower and Gryffindor Tower, where the view is wide and the magic can be performed commandingly.

No wonder she couldn't come up with a more precise strategy, mainly because everyone really has no experience in large-scale combat~www.novelbuddy.com~ Mandrake, Devil's Web..." Professor Sprout left in a word, and she Searching for magical plants that can be used in war. She will fight with her students in Gryffindor Tower.

Professor Flitwick was also gone, and he was to guard Ravenclaw Tower himself. He walked in a hurry, because he remembered some subtle spells that could be arranged on the school playground in advance to give some obstacles to incoming enemies.

Professor McGonagall wasn't idle either, she pulled out her wand and shouted, "Shidun out!"

The whole castle seemed to come alive, and the rumbling sound resounded throughout Hogwarts.

Those armors that were only used for decoration in the corridor jumped off the pedestal and rushed towards the auditorium.

"Hogwarts is threatened, it's time for you to do your duty!" Professor McGonagall shouted: "Guard Hogwarts and destroy the invading enemies!"

A large number of armors and sculptures came to her and passed by her. They were about the size of a real person, carrying various weapons in their hands. As for animal-shaped sculptures, it is even more varied and varied.

One of the sculptures of a knight riding a hippogriff caught the attention of Professor McGonagall, as she had never seen it before.

Professor McGonagall didn't recognize it until it got close.

"Yordle, what are you doing?"
