Chapter 275: Prophecy Orb

"Cough cough cough!"

"Several violent coughs rang out; the leader in black struggled to rise, looking at John."

"His eyelids twitched uncontrollably."

"Damn it.... wasn't it agreed to shut the Ministry of Magic's fireplace immediately? How did this guy get out......"

"Seeing John, the leader in black immediately cursed."

"He's just a Little Carami, sent here to easily take care of Meilik's parents."

"As it turned out, he ran into trouble one after another."

"Now he even directly summoned John himself."

"By then John had calmly walked up to the three of them, without saying a word."

"He directly waved his wand."

"Divine Edge Unseen instantly tore open the chests of the two behind him, blood spraying out!"

"Then he cast Soul Capture Technique, aiming at the leader in black."

'"... Once they enter the Ministry of Magic, we'"'"'ll start the plan; you'"'"'ll transform into the appearance of wanted criminals, cause chaos in the city to draw out the Aurors en masse, and Dementors will assist the operation."'

'"... The elites will then storm the Ministry of Magic; after you enter, the insider will close the fireplace connecting the Ministry to the outside world, must control Harry and obtain the Prophecy Orb."'

'"... You three, on the day the plan begins, go kill John Merick'"'"'s Muggle parents, cut off their heads, and bring them back."'

'"... Yes... but, where is that brat'"'"'s house?"'

'"... You won'"'"'t go check it yourself!"'

'"... We found out... this mudblood once went to Meilik'"'"'s house to handle the flying car incident..."'

'"... Tch, what an idiot, if you'"'"'d just obeyed you wouldn'"'"'t have died..."'

'"... Next to the Foreign Cross Station, it'"'"'s actually this close?"'

"Watching the memories flash by frame by frame, John'"'"'s forehead veins bulged."

"Because in his memory, John saw that Mr. David, who had once had a brief encounter with him, was already dead at their hands..."

"And the cause of death was merely his refusal to reveal his home'"'"'s location to these Death Eaters!"

"John gritted his teeth, his fists clenched until they crackled."

"Magic surged like a tide; the leading Death Eater and the two barely alive behind him suddenly felt a terrifying pressure."

"It was not mental, but physical pressure."

"The furniture inside the house also began to tremble."

"The three, who had been thinking about how to beg for mercy and escape, or call for support, almost simultaneously felt a deathly sense of suffocation."

"This wet-behind-the-ears brat before them seemed to truly have murderous intent..."

'"... I, we surrender..."'

"Swish!"

"John suddenly swung his wand."

"Sizzle!!"

"A burst of blood mist exploded simultaneously from the shoulders and necks of the three!"

'"... Uh-uh ah-ah, uh....."'

"With the last groan cut off, the three corpses slumped limp."

"John panted heavily, looking at the bloody scene before him, he closed his eyes."

"Hoo....."

"He slowly exhaled a mouthful of turbid air, temporarily suppressing the turmoil in his chest and the surging magic."

"He turned his head to the wardrobe and opened the door."

'"Dad, Mom, are you alright?"'

'"John!"'

"Seeing the person who opened the door was their own son, the Merick couple immediately lunged forward and tightly embraced him."

"They had both just been frightened badly; outside there was an explosion and screams."

"They still thought they'"'"'d have to explain themselves here today."

'"Don'"'"'t be scared, Mom and Dad." John gently patted their shoulders to comfort them: "The matter has been settled."'

"John waved his hand, and that bloody scene was covered up."

"Then he led his parents out of the room."

'"I'"'"'ll first take you to Hermione'"'"'s house for refuge; after I settle the trouble here, I'"'"'ll come find you."'

"John, while waving his hand to dispel the incessantly shrieking Warning Spell, said to his parents:"

'"John, what on earth is happening..."'

'"Sorry, Mom, the Wizarding World has recently had some trouble; I can'"'"'t explain it quickly, but rest assured, your son is very strong."'

"Hearing his mother'"'"'s worried inquiry, John shook his head without giving a specific explanation."

"The two elders also understood the priorities, nodding their heads."

"The next moment, John took his parents and Disapparated, vanishing from the spot."

"Bang!"

"With a loud bang, John and his parents landed at Hermione'"'"'s home."

"Originally, the Gelanjie couple had been looking out the window at the distant sky'"'"'s anomaly; hearing the sudden bang, they both jumped in fright."

"Turning around, they saw it was actually John, who had appeared in the living room with his parents."

'"You guys, what is this..."'

Gelanjie Fu Fu opened their mouths in surprise.

"Sorry, uncle and aunt, I don't have time to explain right now; please take in my parents for a while."

However, John did not exchange pleasantries; while speaking, he waved his wand, laying multiple defensive and warning spells inside this small Western-style building.

Also, please don't go out for now; stay at home. At the latest tonight, I will come back to explain everything.

Hermione's parents live in the Northern Suburb, not far from the Dementor attack in the Western Suburb.

He worried that Hermione's parents might also come to harm, so he placed his own parents here to concentrate protection.

Having said that, he again Disapparated away, leaving the two sets of parents staring at each other.

John still had to rush back to the Ministry of Magic.

According to that Death Eater's memory, it can be known that their true target is Harry.

Department of Mysteries.

Bang bang bang!!

A series of explosive sounds!

Several dozen Death Eaters found Harry and his companions hiding in the Prophecy Orb Hall and launched an attack on them.

Two fists cannot fight four hands; even with Moody, Sirius, and Lupin, the three adults, they could not simultaneously oppose over a dozen Death Eaters.

The four could only flee in disarray within the Prophecy Orb Hall, fending off the Death Eaters' attacks while seeking cover.

"Damn it, why hasn't Dumbledore arrived yet!"

Sirius barely deflected a Stun Curse; the spell grazed his ear, and he couldn't help complaining.

"Their plan is extremely tight; I suspect Dumbledore has also been held up."

Lupin, while waving his wand to dispatch the Death Eater before him, analyzed.

"Stop chatting; more Death Eaters are coming."

Professor Moody growled as he scanned the surroundings; his Magic Eye spun rapidly, locking onto the shadow at the end of the corridor.

The four exchanged a glance and immediately fled deeper into the Prophecy Orb Hall.

However, as they passed a corner, a whisper reached Harry's ears.

Harry's steps halted, his gaze turning toward the direction the whisper came from.

"Harry!"

Professor Moody's voice rang out, urging Harry forward.

But Harry seemed nailed to the spot, his eyes involuntarily drawn to that whisper.

It was a Prophecy Orb emitting a faint light.

Gradually, Harry lost awareness of his surroundings and reached out to pick up that Prophecy Orb.

"Wrong, Harry has been bewitched!"

Sirius was the first to notice something wrong, rushing forward to grab Harry.

But a spell suddenly struck, hurling him several meters away, leaving him unresponsive.

Then, several dozen Black Mists completely surrounded them.

Professor Moody and Professor Lupin could only stand back-to-back, guarding against them.

Because these Death Eaters seemed not to intend to attack immediately.

Afterward, a blond-haired man emerged from the Black Mist, gripping a silver wand inlaid with a serpent's head.

"Long time no see, Alastor."

Moody, seeing the arrival, gritted his teeth and called out his name.

"Lucius..."
