Finally, in a room that looked like a conference hall, the Death Eaters caught up with Harry and his companions who were fleeing frantically.

"Stop!" Bellatrix cast a spell, and Ron, who was running at the end, immediately fell to the ground and was lifted up by her by the neck.

"I've caught you, you runaway rats." Bellatrix glanced at Harry and said excitedly, "Guess how long he can last in this excruciating pain.

"I still remember that the Longbottoms held on for three hours. Their melodious screams were so funny..."

Bellatrix glanced at Ron in her hand and said, "Can you surpass them? I hope you can."

She asked and answered herself, smiling excitedly.

"Leave me alone." Ron was frightened by this crazy woman. His legs were shaking, but he still said stiffly, "Leave me alone, Harry. The prophecy must not be taken by the You-Know-Who."

Bellatrix raised her wand and said, "Crucio!"

Ron screamed and curled up into a ball.

"Ron!" called Mr. Weasley anxiously.

He wanted to save Ron, but was entangled by two other Death Eaters and couldn't get away.

Seeing Ron in pain and hearing Mr. Weasley's roar, Harry had no choice but to raise his hand stiffly and hand over the prophecy.

"No, Harry, the Death Eaters won't keep their promises." Mr. Weasley roared, "If they get the prophecy, they will kill Ron immediately!"

"No, no, no, we will let him go." A masked Death Eater rushed up and took the prophecy from Harry's hand.

The corners of his mouth under the mask suddenly curled up into a cruel sneer.

"Let him go first, then kill him..."

"Fainted!"

At this moment, a nearby door was knocked open, and Lupin, Tonks and Kingsley rushed in from outside.

There was a flash of red on Kingsley's wand, and the Death Eater fell backwards onto the ground.

"No, damn it!" Bellatrix roared, throwing Ron out and raising her wand.

"The prophecy ball is flying..."

But Harry was faster than her. The moment the Death Eater fell, he flew over, picked up the prophecy, and held it tightly in his hand.

Tonks also took this opportunity to rescue Ron who was thrown out.

"Luckily we made it in time." Kingsley panted, "Alastor, you really shouldn't have separated us."

"This is the safest way..." Moody dodged a spell again, and his magic eye was almost turning into an afterimage, but even so, he was still hit by a spell that came from the dark.

Moody's back was blown to pieces.

Although he was once a legendary Auror, he was old after all, and his reactions were getting slower and slower. Dealing with two Death Eaters was already his limit, and the number of Death Eaters on the scene was more than twice their number.

Seeing this, Kingsley immediately joined the battle and helped the injured Moody share some of the pressure.

"Don't worry about me, go help those kids." Moody gritted his teeth, picked up the fallen magic eye, and stuffed it back. "Luckily it's not the killing curse, these despicable people."

Kingsley just glanced at him, then without hesitation came to Hermione, who was not far away, and helped her fight off a Death Eater who wanted to attack by surprise, while shouting:

"Watch your back, girl, and try to fight close to the wall."

Hermione, who was experiencing this kind of scene for the first time, was speechless and could only nod with difficulty.

"Okay, the damn guys are here."

On the other side, Bellatrix laughed crazily and pointed her wand at Tonks who was closest to her.

"Avada..."

"Thunder explosion!"

As if someone was deliberately going against her, Bellatrix's spell was interrupted again.

"Come on, let me see how strong you are now!" Sirius said provocatively.

What responded to him was a blinding red light.

Sirius seemed to have foreseen the omen and skillfully transformed into a black dog, dodged the opponent's Cruciatus Curse, and then changed back again.

"Is that all?" He scoffed. "How disappointing."

Bellatrix was also enraged, and then the two of them seemed to be holding fireworks instead of wands, and they kept firing various spells at each other.

Judging from the strength, Sirius and Bellatrix seemed to be evenly matched and neither could do anything to the other.

But others are different.

After all, the Death Eaters had the advantage in numbers, and soon, the weakest two, Hermione and Ron, could not hold on any longer and had their wands thrown away.

Then Moody, who was trying hard to fight, also fell down, rolling from one row of stone steps to another, with a Death Eater who had lost his mask laughing wildly beside him.

Antonin Dolohov pointed his wand at Moody, "Stand up and catch me, you bastard... Cruciatus!"

The balance of victory began to tilt, and at an increasingly rapid pace.

Sirius, who was concentrating on fighting Bellatrix, now not only had to face the enemy in front of him, but also had to guard against sneak attacks in the dark. The pressure doubled in an instant.

On the other hand, no one paid any attention to Harry standing aside.

He didn't know if it was because he was worried about breaking the prophecy or for some other reason, but there was only one Death Eater in front of him, and the other party didn't even seem to be trying hard, only casting a spell casually when he wanted to run away.

"Looks like we won..." Bellatrix's triumphant laughter echoed in the room, playing with Sirius like a cat playing with a mouse.

"That's not necessarily true." A faint voice came from above everyone's head.

Bellatrix looked up subconsciously, and found that there was an extra person in front of the top door.

But the next second, her eyes fell on a pitch-black creature beside the other person.

Not only him, but everyone else in the room saw it as well.

"Kyle?" A flash of disappointment flashed across Mr. Weasley's eyes. He thought it was Dumbledore just now.

But when he realized what was happening, he immediately shouted, "Run! You are not..."

Before he could even say yes, he suddenly couldn't make any sound.

Because he saw the leopard-like animal next to Kyle walk forward and raise its neck.

Harry also looked up. He didn't know what kind of animal it was. He only saw its neck bulged like a pufferfish, and then a hazy purple smoke began to spread rapidly around.

It was as if the pause button was pressed, and the room suddenly became quiet. Everyone, whether they were Death Eaters or Mr. Weasley, all stared with wide eyes.

The next second...

"Damn it, why is there a Nundu Panther in the Ministry of Magic!"

“Run…”

"Do you want to kill everyone?"

“Stop, stop now!”

"No, Kyle, stop it!"

The whole room was in chaos. Antonin Dolohov no longer paid any attention to Moody and ran to the other side of the room without looking back.

The other Death Eaters also left Hermione and Ron, who had lost their ability to resist, and crawled after him.

Even the crazed Bellatrix began to retreat subconsciously.

"Ron, Hermione..."

Seeing the Death Eaters retreat, Harry wanted to rush forward to grab the unconscious Ron and Hermione, but was grabbed by Mr. Weasley.

"Don't go over there, that's the toxin of the leopard, you will die!"

Harry was stunned at first, then struggled even more violently.

"But they are still there... I have to save them..."

"...too late, Harry!" said Mr. Weasley miserably.

The purple smoke spread quickly, and even as they were talking, it had engulfed Ron and Hermione who were lying on the ground.

Mr. Weasley bit his lip hard and dragged Harry back with him.

He couldn't understand why Kyle ordered the Nangdu leopards to kill everyone.

Because apart from Kyle, Chris and Newt Scamander, he couldn't think of anyone else who could command the Nongdu Panthers.

Several Death Eaters immediately used the Bubble Head Curse on themselves.

"It's useless..." Kyle shook his finger. "Even if the poison of the leopard is on clothes, it can penetrate into the body."

Suddenly, the Death Eaters ran faster.

However, after hearing this, Lupin in the crowd suddenly looked up at Kyle. He seemed to have thought of something and breathed a sigh of relief.

He didn't run away, but stood there, allowing himself to be swallowed by the purple smoke.

"Remus..." Sirius shouted with his eyes wide open.

Now Mr. Weasley not only had to hold Harry, but also had to free up one hand to pull Sirius.

"Remus...let me go, Remus isn't coming yet...I need to save him!"

"Shut up Padfoot and stop embarrassing yourself."

A familiar voice came from the smoke. Sirius looked at Lupin who was unharmed inside and blinked blankly.

"A-are you okay?"

"Nonsense, didn't you see it all?" Kyle also came over.

He took out his magic wand and shook it, and a purple smoke of the same color as the surrounding smoke came out from the tip of the wand.

"It's just a change of color for the smoke spell. What's the problem? You don't really think I want to kill everyone."

"I'm sorry, Mr. Weasley." Kyle turned his head and said, "Only by making the Death Eaters feel a fatal threat can I rescue Ron and the others who have lost their ability to move... This is the most effective way."

"Ah? Oh, yes... that's right." Mr. Weasley also reacted at this time, his face red as if painted, "You did a good job, thank you."

"Professor Lupin..." Kyle looked at Lupin beside him again, "When did you find out?"

"When you said that the poison of the Nundu leopard can enter the body through clothing," Lupin said, "as far as I know, its poison mist is not so terrible. Besides, the color is a bit wrong."

"It's more conspicuous this way." Kyle said with a smile, "You are worthy of being one of the most popular Defense Against the Dark Arts professors in Hogwarts. Unlike some people..."

Kyle glanced at Sirius, whose face still had traces of tears, curled his lips, and said in the same voice as before: "Remus... I'm going to save Remus... Don't you trust me too much?"

Sirius's face turned terribly red, and he wished he could find a hole in the ground to crawl into. Mr. Weasley next to him was in the same situation.

"So that Nangdu leopard..."

"Of course it's fake." Kyle said loudly, "Well, my Transfiguration spell is pretty good, isn't it?"

"Brilliant," Kingsley said heartily.

When I saw the Nongdu leopard just now, the fear that came from my heart was so real, it didn't seem like a product of transfiguration at all.

It was precisely because of this that he subconsciously turned and ran away... I believe the Death Eaters were the same.

"How dare you play tricks on us!" said an exasperated voice.

Antonin Dolohov stood there trembling, looking at Kyle with cold eyes. Behind him, more Death Eaters were staring at Kyle with the same look.

"Yeah." Kyle spread his hands. "I'm just teasing you guys. Do you have any objection?"

A green light suddenly flew over.

But Kyle seemed to know it in advance and took a step to the left calmly before that.

The killing curse flew past him and landed on the wall.

"Thanks." Kyle said with a smile.

A low growl came from the smoke that had not yet dissipated behind him, as if responding to him.

Lupin was closest to Kyle, and he vaguely saw two blue lights flash in the smoke.

"But what are you going to do next?" Bellatrix walked out from the Death Eaters. "You don't think you can handle all of us by yourself."

After she reminded him of this, Mr. Weasley suddenly remembered their current situation and grabbed Kyle's arm, "There are too many of them, let's run..."

"It's too late."

The Death Eaters scattered and surrounded them as quickly as possible.

Bellatrix said sinisterly, "It doesn't matter if we use our cleverness to save those rubbish. It's just to buy time. We will catch them again soon. And you, I will torture you with the Cruciatus Curse for a day, no, torture you for a year."

"Tsk tsk, long time no see, Bella, you're still as scary as ever." Kyle greeted her like an old friend.

"But who told you I came here alone?"

Kyle waved his hand, the smoke gradually dissipated, and a magical animal that also looked like a leopard appeared in front of everyone.

It has six legs and a pair of bright blue eyes.

"Transfiguration again." A Death Eater sneered, "Do you think we will be fooled..."

Before the Death Eater could finish his words, he saw the magical creature appear in front of him at an incredible speed.

The sharp claws grew bigger and bigger, and with a scream, the Death Eater was slapped away and lay motionless on the ground.

Looking at the familiar scene, Harry subconsciously thought of some bad memories and shuddered all over.

At the same time, this also told everyone that the magical beasts before their eyes were not a transformation, but real.

"Tear it to pieces!" Antonin Dolohov waved his wand. "It's just a leopard. What can it do?"

"Who told you this is the only one I have?" Kyle said with a smile.

Without any warning, a ball of fire burst out from behind Kyle, and a huge fire dragon appeared out of thin air in front of everyone.

Some Death Eaters couldn't help but take off their masks and rub their eyes... It was so strange, how come they saw a dragon?

Before they could come to their senses, the ground began to shake... It was a huge dog that was ten feet tall and had three heads. The heads were as big as a table, and most of them were covered with sharp fangs that were more than ten inches long.

Some Death Eaters had already begun to tremble. They had no doubt that those fangs could easily pierce their bodies.

"Avada Kedavra!"

"To pieces!"

"Fainted!"

"Protect them..." Lupin roared and was the first to take out his wand.

Several spells flew in from all directions, half of which were blocked by Lupin and others, but the other half still fell on Fluffy and Norbert, including the Killing Curse.

If it was Voldemort's Killing Curse, it might be able to penetrate the fur and scales and kill them, but these Death Eaters were far from it.

Lu Wei just staggered for a moment and then stood up again. With a fierce light in his eyes, he rushed towards the crowd with a roar.

Norbert's was even simpler. It flew directly into the air and spewed large balls of fire towards the area where the Death Eaters were most concentrated.

Sirius immediately forgot the embarrassment and joined in with laughter.

"Come on, don't run." He knocked down a Death Eater with his wand, tied him up and threw him aside, "Weren't you quite proud of yourself just now? Keep going!"

The Death Eaters were in complete chaos; the addition of the three-headed dog and the dragon completely changed the situation.

Originally, this kind of magical beast is not too difficult to deal with. As long as seven or eight people cast a spell together, they can deal with one. But the trouble is that there are more than just magical beasts here.

Whenever the Death Eaters wanted to use spells at the same time, Sirius and the others would jump out to cause trouble, and they would protect them more attentively than when protecting themselves.

Because as long as the fire dragon and the three-headed dog are protected from harm, they can solve the current dilemma on their behalf, and more efficiently.

The situation became one-sided in an instant.

"We can't go on like this." Lucius Malfoy limped to Bellatrix's side. His mask had been burned by the dragon flames, and most of his hair, which he had always carefully maintained, was gone.

But Malfoy was in no mood to care about that now.

"We have to find a way to get out of here!" he shouted, "At least we have to lure those two beasts here."

But Bellatrix acted as if she didn't hear it. She rolled over to avoid the dragon fire falling from the sky, stretched out her wand and pointed it at Kyle, but after a moment, she slightly turned her wrist and pointed the tip of the wand at Harry who was holding the prophecy.

Harry stood there blankly, unaware of the impending danger, until he was kicked hard by something and flew away, just avoiding a deadly curse.

"Oh, thank you." Harry said to the leopard with a look of relief after getting up, but he didn't notice that when he fell, the prophecy ball rolled out of his pocket and broke on a stone step not far away.
