The scene before her made Amelia Bones' face look a little heavy.
Not only was the excessive number of enemies posing a considerable threat to her, but the fact that these dark creatures gathered together also proved that Voldemort's power had expanded again.
The dark camp will naturally favor powerful dark wizards like Voldemort, because dark wizards are often unscrupulous and will promise them extremely generous conditions.
Amelia is now very grateful that the Ministry of Magic has passed a resolution to cooperate with Count Dracula, winning over almost all vampires, as well as some werewolves led by Lupin, and splitting off a large number of dark creatures.
Otherwise, she really didn't know how to stop the expansion of Voldemort's dark forces.
Of course, now is not the time to think about these things. The most important thing is how to escape from this large-scale attack.
"Let's try to delay as much as possible," Amelia whispered to the Auror beside her, "James Lupin should be here with the werewolves soon, but they need some time to prepare; the vampires may be faster, maybe we still have a chance to wait for their support."
"We will protect your safety, Ms. Bones." The Auror Captain nodded and said to Amelia, "The Death Eaters should have been prepared and have set up an anti-Apparition spell in advance. We can only take it step by step..."
"... According to the normal response method, we will follow the conventional means in the defense manual, first use protective magic to block it, and then wait for an opportunity to find a way to break through the encirclement."
"Well, just do your own thing and don't worry about my safety." Amelia said calmly, "I know very well what is written in the Auror's defense manual."
The captain of the Auror team then remembered that the current Minister of Magic was formerly the Director of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement, and the Auror Office was under her jurisdiction. She certainly knew how to cooperate with the Aurors' actions next.
So he put his mind at ease and raised his wand first—
“Protego totalum!”
The Aurors around him raised their wands and chanted a series of protective spells:
"Protego Horribilis."
"Salvio Hexia."
"Fumos."
"… "
As the Aurors chanted spells one after another, a solid transparent barrier appeared around them, and a mist quickly rose up, blocking the sight of the Death Eaters and werewolves.
"These protective spells should be able to delay the Dementors for a while, but they can't stop them." The Auror Captain quickly instructed his men around him, "Line up. The Aurors in the middle of the team will be responsible for using the Patronus Charm to stop the Dementors. The Aurors on the periphery will be careful to guard against poison spells that may be missed by the protective spells!"
Before he finished his words, a dense sound like raindrops hit the protective shield, and the werewolf's partially deformed sharp claws tore at the barrier, making a harsh friction sound.
Then, the unique cold aura of the Dementors drilled in from the outside, accompanied by a eerie "crunching" sound, and negative emotions came over him.
The Auror, who was well prepared, quickly cast the Patronus Charm, forming a silver barrier.
However, the threshold for the Patronus Charm was too high in the past. Most of these Aurors were not as good as the students Dracula casually trained at Hogwarts, and no Auror could cast the complete version of the Patronus Charm.
These barriers were merely formed of a silver mist, and the best spells were just the rudiments of some animals.
One or two Dementors might be a little afraid of the Patronus Charm, but this time, almost all the Dementors who came here were the ones who defected from the entire island of Azkaban.
Their dark auras combined together to create a considerable resistance to this incomplete patronus.
As for the Aurors on the periphery, they need to concentrate all their attention and promptly repair the protective shield that is broken or torn from time to time. They are overwhelmed by the spells that penetrate the barrier and have no time to take care of anything else.
Amelia sighed softly when she saw this.
"Forget it, just focus on dealing with spells and werewolves, and leave the Dementors to me." She said to the Aurors, "Have you all discovered your weaknesses? If you can return to the Ministry safely, increase your training. You are clearly not strong enough now!"
As she spoke, she raised her wand high.
A small silver badger jumped out from the tip of her wand, passed through the silver barrier constructed by the Aurors, ran through the air, and rushed towards the group of gathered Dementors.
The complete version of the Patronus Charm is indeed the nemesis of Dementors. These dark creatures subconsciously began to hide away from the silver badger... Under Amelia's control, the badger quickly expelled the Dementors from the protective magic.
After eliminating the threat of Dementors, most Aurors breathed a sigh of relief and turned their attention to blocking the attacks of Death Eaters and werewolves.
The situation was deadlocked for a moment.
"We can't go on like this. Staying in one place will only limit our progress." The Auror Captain frowned and said solemnly, "They can call for other reinforcements at any time, but we are trapped here without any supplies."
"Well, let's prepare to break out." Amelia nodded. "Most of the werewolves here have average magic skills. We can use them as a breakthrough point."
"I understand." The Auror Captain nodded.
He carefully explained the precautions to the other Aurors around him, and then they quickly formed a formation and opened a hole in the protective shield from the direction of the werewolf.
Most of the werewolves were still frantically tearing at the shield, but the sudden loss of resistance in front of them caused them to stumble.
The next moment, a spell like a waterfall gushed out from the opening of the protective shield, instantly defeating a large number of half-beast werewolves.
Then, Amelia followed a group of Aurors, casting the Lightness Charm and Speed-Up Charm on themselves, and quickly ran through the crowd and out of the fog created by the Smokescreen Charm.
While the Death Eaters and the dark creatures they had joined hadn't reacted yet, they almost broke through the encirclement and approached the boundary set by the Anti-Apparition Spell...
However, Amelia and the others stopped at the last moment.
"That bunch of trash is really unreliable. They can't even handle a few Aurors!" A crazy witch stopped in front of them and cursed with dissatisfaction.
Behind her stood a group of wizards in gray-black robes. Both their attire and behavior proved their identities—the core group of Death Eaters.
"Bellatrix, why are you here?" Yaxley rushed up from behind and asked the leading witch.
"You are such losers!" Bellatrix cursed. "The Dark Lord called us here to do the finishing work to ensure that everything would go perfectly well. Who knew that with so many of you, you couldn't even control his own people?"
Yaxley looked a little grim.
Of course, the ones with uglier expressions were Amelia and the Aurors led by the Auror Captain.
The Aurors had never expected that Voldemort would attach so much importance to the new Minister of Magic that he would almost mobilize all of his core Death Eaters...
Amelia knew more. She knew that the person Voldemort valued was not her, the Minister of Magic, but Dracula, who had disrupted his plans several times.
The alliance between the Ministry of Magic and Dracula is something Voldemort does not want to see, so he must ensure that this operation is foolproof!
After being blocked for only a few moments by Bellatrix and other Death Eaters, the werewolves, Dementors and other dark creatures behind them caught up again, once again forming an encirclement that was even more solid than the last time.
Moreover, after the addition of the core Death Eaters, the opponent's cutting-edge forces completely surpassed Amelia and the captain of the Auror Team, and the Ministry of Magic camp fell into a complete disadvantage.
"How do you want to escape now, Bones?" Bellatrix said to Amelia with a nervous smile, "I advise you to surrender now, maybe you can suffer less torture."
"Okay." Amelia also smiled kindly and slowly raised her hands.
Bella was stunned for a moment, as if she had not expected that the new Minister of Magic could be even more spineless than Fudge.
However, the next moment, Amelia, who had raised her hands halfway, suddenly swung her wand, and a dazzling red spell instantly shot towards Bellatrix.
Bella fell to the side in a panic, barely avoiding Amelia's stunning spell, but another Death Eater behind her was hit and fell unconscious to the ground.
"You bitch, how dare you play tricks on me!" Bella screamed, standing up from the ground and wanted to rush towards Amelia.
The Auror Captain stood in front of her first.
"Ms. Bones, we will stop them here, you find a chance to leave!" he said loudly.
Amelia also knew that this was not the time to shirk responsibility, so she nodded and walked around Bella, the wand in her hand continuously emitting powerful light.
Few of the core Death Eaters could withstand her spell, and she broke through all the obstacles in front of her and reached the end of the Death Eaters team...
Just as Amelia was about to Apparate and evacuate first, and then call more Death Eaters to rescue the Auror team, a masked figure blocked her way.
"Get out of the way!" Amelia shouted.
At the same time, a sharp petrification spell shot towards the masked Death Eater.
However, unlike the previous overwhelming effect, this time the spell was easily deflected by the masked Death Eater, and then another spell was shot from his wand towards Amelia at the last moment.
Amelia's eyes grew serious as she realized that she had met a top-notch dark wizard.
The spells flew back and forth, and the two men exchanged blows several times. Amelia became more and more frightened as the fight went on... She discovered that the Death Eater on the other side was not weaker than herself at all, and was even a little stronger.
There are only a few Death Eaters with such strength, and they are all on the list that Lucius Malfoy gave to the Ministry of Magic.
However, Amelia couldn't match the man in front of her with the Death Eaters on the list...
"Wait, you are...?!"
Suddenly, Amelia's eyes widened.
Lucius did give out a name, but that name was guaranteed by Dumbledore, so it was excluded... However, the Death Eater guaranteed by Dumbledore completely matched the masked man in front of him!
The masked Death Eater frowned when he saw Amelia's expression.
He seized Amelia's weakness and cast another fierce stun spell.
Amelia was so shocked that she didn't react in time. When she wanted to recite a spell to resist, it was too late...
At the critical moment, a man with a goatee appeared in front of Amelia. He opened a pair of black wings behind him and blocked the masked Death Eater's spell behind him.
"Are you okay, Ms. Bones?" the man asked.
"I'm fine." Amelia felt relieved and looked at the winged goatee man in front of her. "You are... Count Dracula's subordinate, Mr. Tesla?"
"I'm glad you still remember me." Tesla smiled and retracted his wings. "I was just waiting for Mr. Lupin and the others to act together in Romania. I was delayed for a while and came late."
"Leave it to us from now on!"
Then he looked at the sky, which was suddenly covered by thick clouds - that was a weather spell Lupin had cast specifically to make it easier for vampires to move during the day.
In the sky, countless wings flapped, almost covering the sun.
Countless vampires descended from the sky and met the group of enemies who belonged to the dark camp.
The werewolves, led by Lupin, also found those werewolves who had fallen into depravity and associated with dark wizards, and taught them a lesson with the mentality of clearing out their own sect.
Unlike the werewolves who voluntarily transformed into half-beasts to increase their strength and also increased their brutality, the werewolves led by Lupin were fighting for the same dream, which was to work hard to live in a magical world that did not discriminate against werewolves in the future.
They all held wands and were dressed appropriately, forming a sharp contrast with the half-dressed werewolves with scarlet eyes. If you didn't know clearly, you might think it was a group of Aurors teaching a mad werewolf a lesson.
A handsome and tall vampire landed in front of Amelia, retracted his wings, and greeted her.
"Long time no see, Ms. Bones." He smiled, "How are Susan and the others doing lately?"
"Cedric? It's been a while since I last saw you." Amelia smiled happily when she saw the boy in front of her. "Susan and your Hufflepuff friends are all doing well. It seems like you're doing well in Dracula's Castle, too?"
"Well, Professor Dracula took good care of me, and the other vampires were also very friendly... Of course, I think it was because of Professor Dracula's face." Cedric smiled, "But now is not the time to reminisce, let's get rid of those Death Eaters first!"
"Of course!" Amelia nodded slightly and raised her wand again.
The situation on the field seemed to change in an instant, and the balance of victory gradually tilted towards Amelia and her team...
