The appearance of Lucas injected a boost to the people of the Order of the Phoenix.
Without Dumbledore's presence, everyone naturally regarded him as the leader.
The leaders of both sides crashed into the wall and left.
There is also no reason for the others to remain in the death chamber.
"Harry, stay here!" After finishing speaking, Sirius turned into a white mist and left.
Crazy laughter resounded through the death chamber as Bellatrix turned into a black mist amidst laughter and fought with her cousin.
Others also seized the opportunity to leave the room and the battlefield suddenly shifted from the death chamber to the next door.
At this moment, it depends on who's side supporters will arrive faster. Those who arrive first will naturally get some advantage.
Just when Arthur Weasley was about to leave, his wrist was held by Remus beside him.
"Arthur, stay and protect Harry please, he is very important."
Then he glanced back at Harry and smiled faintly as he and Tonks used apparition.
"Arthur, take care of them!"
Alastor Moody also knocked a Death Eater out of the air before leaving.
The Saints around followed Lucas' footsteps to the next room early, so the death chamber instantly became deserted.
"Mr Weasley, we...."
"No!" Arthur seriously rejected Harry's proposal.
No matter what Harry said now, he wouldn't agree, unless Dumbledore or Lucas came back.
Harry also understood this, so he sighed and returned to his friends.
With Voldemort and the Death Eaters gone.
These students who were still too young and weak to participate in such a fight came out from under the stone steps in fear.
"Merlin's beard, it turned out to be Voldemort, it's really scary." Lavender said, patting her chest.
Parvati nodded repeatedly: "Grindelwald is really powerful, did you see it just now? Voldemort had to dodge as soon as he appeared."
Everyone nodded.
They were just as surprised when they saw Lucas beat Voldemort in the newspapers.
Seeing Voldemort with their own eyes today, they had a more intuitive feeling of Lucas' strength, and of course they were even more shocked because of it.
"Is he really the same age as us? Maybe he's some old man in disguise?"
Dean Thomas' remarks have already been said by many people in the school, because only this explanation can save everyone from feeling inadequate.
"Ahem!" Ron cleared his throat and glared at the few people who spoke.
Seeing Harry's gloomy expression, everyone smiled awkwardly.
They almost forgot that the last thing Harry liked was hearing people praise Lucas.
"Harry, what did my father say? Do we need to go help?"
"Mr Weasley didn't agree, he told me that we have to stay here." Harry replied in a deep voice.
The two girls, Lavender and Parvati, breathed a sigh of relief quietly, while Neville's eyes became a little dim.
The people who hurt his parents are currently next door but he couldn't even go to take revenge, this kind of thing made him very uncomfortable.
The Death Eaters and the Saints arrived almost at the same time. But before the two parties could make a move, they were attracted by the furnishings in the room.
They saw all kinds of clocks hanging all over the corners of the room. There were also many Time-Turners scattered around the tables and walls.
At the far end of the room stood a bell-shaped crystal-like dome exuding a sparkling, diamond-like light.
Time room.
Another magical place in the Department of Mysteries. Except for the responsible personnel, there are generally few people here.
Tick tock~!
The sound of the gears of the clocks were connected together, just listening to it makes people confused.
"Avada..."
The first to react was a Death Eater.
He was the closest to Lucas, and planned to make a surprise attack to grab the credit.
But he didn't even get to finish his spell when Lucas suddenly appeared in front of him punching hard and sending him flying.
The other party coincidentally plunged headlong into the bell-shaped crystal-like dome.
Watching the Death Eater's head switch back and forth between baby and adult everyone swallowed their saliva.
Time is indeed a terrible magic.
Lucas frowned as he looked down at his hands.
It was not an illusion just now. In this room, his Time Magic was strongly disturbed.
Lucas' attack was like a signal as the people around immediately started fighting.
Sirius once again confronted his cousin Bellatrix.
Lucius Malfoy confronted Mad-Eye Moody.
Remus and Tonks still cooperated tacitly to deal with the hordes of Death Eaters around them.
Kingsley faced Rodolphus Lestrange.
The light of the spells flickered, and the surrounding clocks were quickly shattered.
During the fight, some people accidentally died because they touched some mechanisms in the time chamber.
This made everyone's actions more cautious.
The Death Eaters, who were originally outnumbered, were still outnumbered even if they changed places.
It's just that this time there are more high-end fighters following Voldemort.
It was hard to tell the winner between the two sides for a while.
But anyone with a discerning eye can see that it is only a matter of time before the Saints and the Order of the Phoenix win, as long as Lucas could hold Voldemort down.
But the Death Eaters didn't look too panicked.
Until Pius Thicknesse and Pyne Carrow appeared in front of everyone with the Aurors from the Ministry of Magic.
"Minister Thicknesse, you are really timely."
Pius looked at Kingsley who was fighting with someone, and saw that he was distracted by talking so he hastily pulled out his wand to help him.
The Aurors also attacked the Death Eaters, led by Rufus Scrimgeour and Pyne Carrow.
Seeing that the battlefield was becoming one-sided, Lucas smiled and said, "It seems you have failed again, Voldemort."
"Hehe HaHaHaHaH~" Voldemort's laughter turned from small to loud.
He looked around and asked, "Is this all your strength?"
Facing the dead or captured Death Eaters around him, Voldemort's emotions remained unmoved. So Lucas frowned with a hint of vigilance in his eyes.
His cautious look made Voldemort very satisfied.
"Wondering why I'm not worried about failure?"
Seeing Lucas nod, Voldemort's expression showed a little smugness.
"Since it's all within my expectations, don't you wonder why Dumbledore hasn't come to help?"
Lucas looked at Moody and others not far away, but everyone shook their heads again and again.
Before leaving, Dumbledore said he was going back to school to prepare, but they don't know why he hasn't shown up yet.
Seeing the appearance of several people, Voldemort's laugh became even louder.
Of course he wouldn't tell everyone that it was he who designed to lure Dumbledore away.
Right at this time, a large amount of black mist figures poured into the time chamber.
The sound of apparition sounded one after another and the originally spacious room was instantly filled with people.
The people who came were all in black robes and silver masks.
The tables turned again.
Just now Lucas and the others took advantage, but in the blink of an eye he was about to become a prisoner.
In the death chamber, Arthur Weasley passed through the open door and saw a large number of Death Eaters pouring into the next room, so he knew there must be trouble next door.
"Harry, Ronald, come here!"
Calling a few children to his side, Arthur said solemnly.
"Promise me, don't leave here, I will go to the next door to support them, so you have to wait for us to come back."
They heard the series of Apparition sounds clearly just now. So knowing that the situation next door wasn't good, they nodded quickly.
With a snap, the figure of Arthur Weasley disappeared in front of everyone.
"Harry, should we go and see?"
As soon as Mr Weasley left, Ron couldn't wait to propose doing something stupid.
Harry wanted to go a long time ago, but he was too embarrassed to bring it up.
The boys Seamus, Neville and Dean all agreed as well and only the two girls hesitated.
Seeing this, Harry said, "Why don't you wait here for us to come back?"
Lavender and Parvati looked around, and when their eyes passed the black curtain, they shook their heads immediately.
"We'll go with you."x2
Hearing their unanimous answer, the boys laughed out loud.
Everyone came to the bottom of the door and began to think about how to climb up.
…
In the time room, members of the Saints and the Order of the Phoenix were back to back, watching the Death Eaters around them vigilantly.
Not far from them, the Aurors led by Pius and Pyne also formed a circle for defense.
The two groups of people approached each other consciously, eager to get together.
In the middle of the room, Voldemort and Lucas stood facing each other.
The Death Eaters surrounded the two of them according to Voldemort's request.
"Lucas Grindelwald, I invite you again, if you are willing to cooperate with me, you can sit on an equal footing with me."
Seeing that Lucas did not speak, he continued to persuade him to surrender because of his large advantage.
"Look, you're in a desperate situation now, and that old fool Dumbledore hasn't come to your rescue."
"Grindelwald, you are different from those in the Order of the Phoenix. You still have your own subordinates to take care of. Is Dumbledore worth your hard work for him?"
"Look at the men behind you. Some of them were injured, some even lost their lives. It's easy for you to leave here, and I can't stop you."
"But what about them? Think about them and their families, as long as you are willing to cooperate with me, I can let them go, how about it?"
Lucas tilted his head slightly, and then he looked at the wounded men behind him.
Seeing in his expression that he seemed to be a little moved, Voldemort hastily made several more promises, such as treating members of the Saints well.
Seeing that Lucas's expression became more and more shaken, the voice of Harry suddenly came from outside the door.
"Dumbledore will come to our rescue!"
All eyes were immediately on the door.
Seeing the figure of Harry Potter, the Death Eaters were in a commotion.
Lucas chuckled: "I'm sorry, I don't want to be compared to Potter, and it's still uncertain who will win between you and me."
Before the words fell, a dazzling lightning shot out from the magic wand in his hand.
Lucas intends to learn from Voldemort this time and start with a sneak attack, not caring about dueling etiquette!
The noseless man responded quickly.
Five incredibly fast swipes of his wand knocked Lucas' lightning aside
The third confrontation between the two officially began!
