Chapter 960 Saving Harry Potter
Harry may never understand why things turned out like this. He was just participating in the third event of the Triwizard Tournament in the maze of the Quidditch pitch, and why was he suddenly kidnapped here.
He didn't even understand why he suddenly fainted or why he was kidnapped, but Harry knew that his current situation was not good.
A man who was both strange and familiar to him came into view. He was Sirius's enemy that he wanted to kill all the time, and he was also Harry's enemy - Peter Pettigrew.
Peter was standing in front of a large cauldron, not knowing what he was doing.
Before Harry had time to think about when he was kidnapped by Peter Pettigrew, he was stunned by what the other party did. Peter actually put an extremely ugly baby into the crucible. What did he want to do?
"ah!"
The scar on Harry's forehead suddenly burned so unbearably that he almost fainted.
Vaguely, Peter Pettigrew's chanting could be heard in his ears, and then he felt his arm being stabbed by a sharp blade. When Harry opened his eyes with difficulty, he saw a black figure slowly rising from the crucible. .
As the man stepped out of the cauldron and put on the robe handed to him by Peter Pettigrew, Harry felt a creepy shiver spread throughout his body. It was the face that had often appeared in nightmares for the past three years.
Voldemort is resurrected.
"Oh my god, if this is a terrible nightmare, please wake me up!" Harry kept roaring and shouting in his heart.
This is not a nightmare.
He was extremely desperate.
Why didn’t you listen to the advice? Why did you want to participate in the Triwizard Tournament? Why not just wait for the game to end at the entrance of the maze?
Harry regretted it.
But, everything is too late.
Voldemort was resurrected with his blood.
Voldemort showed off proudly, shared his story, and used the Dark Mark on Peter Pettigrew's arm to summon his servants.
They were a group of Death Eaters wearing cloaks and strangely patterned masks. They looked like house elves in the kitchen. They knelt humbly and crawled to Voldemort, kissed his robes, and begged him for forgiveness.
While Voldemort was greeting his old friend, Harry heard Voldemort calling out the names of some Death Eaters.
As expected, it is not a prejudice against Malfoy.
Lucius Malfoy is indeed a Death Eater.
His two henchmen, Goyle and Crabbe, are also Death Eaters, as well as the executioner MacNeil, who almost killed Buckbeak last year, and many strange wizards.
All the Death Eaters looked at Harry with strange eyes, looking at the desperate face of the legendary savior, the famous Harry Potter.
“You should all have noticed that the famous Harry Potter made a grand appearance at my rebirth party.” A smile appeared on Voldemort’s pale face, “We might as well call him a special guest.”
When Harry thought that Voldemort would kill him in front of his servants, however, the Dark Lord
With Malfoy's compliments, he finished telling his legendary story, allowing Harry to survive a little longer.
However, if he knew that he could stand here and show off the miracles he had created to the Death Eaters, it was entirely because his most loyal servants used their lives to help buy time.
"I know that this boy that you all think is my nemesis..." Voldemort raised his wand and gave Harry a Cruciatus Curse, letting all the Death Eaters see Harry's painful and embarrassing appearance. "You think this boy is better than me." What a stupid idea.”
"I admit that Harry Potter's escape from my hands was a complete fluke." Voldemort said calmly. "There's no Dumbledore here to protect him, or his mother to make sacrifices for him."
"Now, I will kill Harry Potter to prove my power." Voldemort knew exactly how to regain the loyalty of the Death Eaters, "but I will give Harry a chance, he can fight me, and then like His father died in the same heroic battle, so that you will never doubt who is more powerful."
Harry took back his wand in a daze and stood opposite Voldemort, preparing for a duel with the infamous Dark Lord that was unfair from the beginning.
Voldemort just wanted to kill him to establish his power, and also planned to have fun with him before killing him.
Harry held the wand stubbornly and stared at Voldemort, preparing for the final duel with him. He knew he was going to be killed, and there was nothing he could do about it...Dumbledore was no longer here, and no one could save him.
Two years ago, Harry participated in a short-term dueling club. In recent months, he also learned a lot of spells from Sirius, but what he learned was of no use here, because he faced It's Voldemort.
“Be brave Harry.”
Harry took a deep breath and held his head up as high as possible.
Even if he died heroically like his father, he would not give in and listen to Voldemort's mercy... He would not beg for mercy... Harry raised his wand and stood in front of Voldemort like a hero, ready to chant a spell at him. .
Voldemort was much faster than him, and Harry was hit by the Cruciatus Curse again before he even had time to say the spell.
Severe pain reoccupied every inch of Harry's body. His head must have burst from the pain, but Harry gritted his teeth and couldn't bear it, even though his eyes were about to bulge out of his eyes.
The pain stopped, and Harry's body was shaking uncontrollably, but he still grabbed the wand and climbed up, trying to attack Voldemort. However, he was knocked down by the Cruciatus Curse again.
This time, Harry finally couldn't help but scream in pain. He had never made such a scream in his life.
"Look, how stubborn he is. He still doesn't want to give in and wants to fight with me." Voldemort removed his wand and said cheerfully, "Let Harry rest for a while... I think he must be in pain."
The Death Eaters laughed again, laughing at Harry's embarrassed appearance. They wanted to see Harry beg for mercy, but Harry did not answer and still held the wand in his hand.
Even though Voldemort used the Imperius Curse, Harry was not made to give in or beg Voldemort for mercy.
“You should give in so that you can suffer less pain before you die.”
Just when Voldemort was about to use the Cruciatus Curse again, Harry finally used the first spell used in the duel - the Disarming Curse.
However, this spell did not take effect, because Voldemort just tilted his head and got out of the way, and the severe pain fell on Harry again, making his body that could not bear it almost fall to the ground.
The pain had blurred Harry's consciousness, but he knew that he could not kneel at Voldemort's feet... he had to die standing like his father.
Harry tried his best to get back on his feet, but he couldn't.
Just when Voldemort was about to recite the Avada Kedavra to Harry who was lying on the ground, a flame suddenly lit up not far away, and Dumbledore stepped out of the flames.
Voldemort looked at his old acquaintance not far away, with a cruel smile on his lips: "How stupid, Dumbledore. Do you think you alone can save Harry Potter?"
"The Aurors are already on the way." Dumbledore glanced at Harry who was lying on the ground and said calmly, "I think they will be very happy to catch you all, and then they will have no other excuses."
There was a commotion among the Death Eaters around. If it had been anyone else, they would have laughed at each other, but it was Dumbledore who said this.
"Quiet."
Voldemort glanced at the commotion of the Death Eaters, raised his wand, looked at Dumbledore and said, "I'm curious, how are you going to duel me while protecting that boy?"
"If you want to do that, I really can't stop you." Dumbledore said calmly, "But I don't think you can stop me from killing other people."
Dumbledore's voice was so cold that all the Death Eaters around him couldn't help but shiver.
They all knew that if Voldemort killed Harry Potter in front of Dumbledore, there would be at least a few Death Eaters buried with Harry here.
After Harry heard Dumbledore's voice, he was almost completely desperate and finally had hope again. However, before Harry had time to rejoice, he realized that he was being held back by Dumbledore.
“Leave me alone, avenge me, kill them all!”
Harry almost exhausted all his strength and yelled at Dumbledore. The scene was extremely tragic.
At this moment, the expressions of all the Death Eaters suddenly changed. They never thought that Harry Potter was also a ruthless character, and he even risked his own life.
"Harry himself has had that realization." Dumbledore stared at the Death Eaters next to Voldemort, as if he was preparing to pick a target. If Voldemort hadn't been here, the Death Eaters would have definitely escaped.
“Bluff!”
Voldemort stroked his wand and waved his hand to signal the Death Eaters to disperse.
The Death Eaters around Voldemort all breathed a sigh of relief. They did not want to get involved in the duel between the two, which would be a disaster.
“Shall we duel, or are you afraid?”
"Why should I fulfill your wish?" Voldemort looked at the old man opposite him, as if he was surprised why the other party would say such a thing, "I know you want to save Harry Potter."
"You heard it just now, you can't protect everyone." Dumbledore raised his wand and fired a spell at Voldemort.
"This is not what you would say. I know you will save Potter, and I know your weaknesses." Voldemort looked like he was going to defeat Dumbledore.
At this moment, Dumbledore launched a direct attack on an unlucky Death Eater. If Voldemort hadn't stopped the attack, the Death Eater might have died.
When Voldemort tried to intercept, Dumbledore also seized the opportunity to launch a fatal spell at Voldemort to hold him back.
Fawkes appeared above them, swooping down and trying to take Harry away from Voldemort's grasp.
"Do you think you can take Potter away from me with such inferior means?"
Voldemort raised his wand towards the phoenix, making a sharp sound, and a spell penetrated Fawkes' body, killing Dumbledore's phoenix.
After the phoenix fell, landed next to Potter, burned up, and turned into a fledgling, Harry, who had just had a glimmer of hope, almost completely despaired.
"It seems your plan has failed, Dumbledore." Voldemort mocked unbridledly, "You still want to save Harry Potter."
At the place where Fox died, a woolen sock lay quietly among the ashes.
However, before Harry could react, Voldemort discovered the secret of the wool socks earlier. Even though Dumbledore was doing his best to delay him and buy Harry time, the savior obviously failed to seize the opportunity at the first opportunity.
“Is this your trick?”
Voldemort looked at the wool socks with contempt and destroyed them directly.
The expression on Dumbledore's face fell instantly.
That woolen sock was indeed the door key he had prepared for Harry.
As long as Harry reaches out and grabs the wool socks, he can be transported back to Hogwarts by the portkey.
However, the plan failed.
“Since you want to save him, I’ll just kill him.”
The Death Eaters were all gone, and Voldemort didn't have to worry so much. He raised his wand and recited the Avada Kedavra to Harry in front of Dumbledore. Even Dumbledore could not stop him from killing Harry Potter.
However, a strange thing happened. Harry's hand suddenly moved. The wand in his hand pointed at Voldemort unconsciously, and fired a spell, leading to a confrontation with Avada Kedavra.
The next moment, the two wands were connected by a dazzling golden light.
Voldemort's eyes widened in surprise. He didn't expect such a strange thing to happen.
At this moment, something even weirder happened. Harry Potter suddenly disappeared and he was teleported away.
The connection between the two wands was thus severed.
"what have you done?"
Voldemort was extremely angry. Dumbledore actually rescued Harry Potter in front of him. This was simply a shame for him.
However, Voldemort did not notice that Dumbledore also had a look of astonishment on his face when he discovered that Harry had suddenly disappeared. Obviously, this matter had nothing to do with Dumbledore.
Well, who would have thought that Harry Potter would wear socks that turned into portkeys?
Even if Voldemort could easily see through something, he certainly wouldn't have time to pay attention to what socks or underwear Harry was wearing, and certainly not to the extent of the presence of a portkey.
If little Barty had turned his underwear into a door key, he would definitely not have been easily discovered by Dumbledore. Maybe he might have been... well, he might have been teleported away.
Of course, those socks were given by Sirius, and he specifically asked Harry to wear them during the game. This is why he felt free to go squat near the grave of old Tom Riddle and Peter Pettigrew.
As for who came up with this idea, Sirius has repeatedly promised that this is a method he came up with on his own, and Lupine can testify for him.
