Chapter 318 Leaving the tent and fleeing
Harry and Draco looked at each other, and without saying a word, they lifted Narcissa's body and tried their best to lift her up from the burning sofa.
The glow of the flames illuminated their faces, and the temperature became unbearably hot.
The roof of the tent began to collapse, the cloth above the head burned out, revealing the night sky outside, sparks flew everywhere, the carpet underfoot had been engulfed by flames, and thick smoke was everywhere.
"damn it!"
Draco gritted his teeth. The pain in his arm still tormented him, but he endured the pain and held on to his mother's body tightly.
They stumbled out of the tent.
——The scene before my eyes looked like a doomsday catastrophe.
The crowd screamed and ran away, children cried for their parents, and women and men fled in panic among the flames.
The Death Eaters' wild laughter and curses mixed with the shouts and screams of the crowd. They wore cold masks and grinned behind the flames. As they waved their wands, wizards kept falling down or fleeing in panic.
More tents have been set on fire, and the surroundings are filled with flames and ashes, like a battlefield.
A red beam passed over their shoulders, almost glancing at Draco's cheek, and Amanta raised her hand sharply.
"Armor protection!"
The transparent armor spell was instantly deployed, blocking several evil curses fired at them.
"We can't stay here any longer!" she said through gritted teeth, her voice still clear in the noisy environment.
Harry nodded while panting, "Where to go then? Nowhere is safe here!"
Amanta narrowed her eyes and quickly glanced around, her mind racing for possible hiding places.
Soon, she locked onto a direction——
There is a small woods not far away, which is relatively hidden and can at least temporarily avoid the center of the riot.
"Go there!" She raised her hand and pointed to the dark woods.
"But mother..."
Draco subconsciously lowered his head and looked at Narcissa's weak body, struggling a little.
Amanta grabbed his wrist and said in an unquestionable tone: "Do you want her to be shot to death by random curses, or burned alive, or do you want to take her to a safe place?"
Draco's expression changed, and he finally gritted his teeth and nodded.
They took action.
Amanta walked in the front, holding her wand high, continuously casting various defensive magics to resist the spells that could attack at any time.
Harry and Draco supported Narcissa together and made their way through the crowd with difficulty.
Spells flew everywhere, Death Eaters and various ordinary wizards brushed against each other in the chaos, people fell down from time to time, and some wizards fought back hard.
"Wait." Amanta suddenly whispered, paused slightly, and turned her head to look at Draco and Harry.
"What?" Harry didn't react for a moment.
"Your hair is too conspicuous, and so is Draco's. We need to disguise ourselves." Amanta quickly waved her wand, lightly tapped the tops of their heads, and performed a few simple transfiguration spells.
——Harry's black hair turned into light brown, and Draco's platinum hair was dyed dark gray. The facial features were also adjusted to a certain extent, and they looked very different from their original appearance.
Draco frowned: "Could you have told me in advance?!"
Amanta had no time to pay attention to him, but continued to quicken her pace, leading them towards the woods.
"Okay, let's go and don't look back." She said calmly.
Harry looked back at Draco's new hair color and couldn't help but muttered, "How weird! I'm not that weird too, am I..."
Draco glared at him, "Shut up, you should be thankful you're still alive to complain."
Amanta couldn't help but remind them: "If you two keep talking nonsense, the Death Eaters will catch up with you."
They quickly quickened their pace, and in the flames and chaos, they rushed towards the dark grove.
Embers of fire drifted in the air, filling it with choking smoke, and screams of terror echoed through the camp.
Amanta glanced around sharply, holding her wand to deal with any sudden attacks.
But this group of people is too crazy, and the surroundings are too chaotic...
It is impossible for her alone to face the 360-degree attacks that could come at any time.
"Draco, you carry Narcissa on your back, Harry, come and help me," she ordered.
Harry and Draco looked at each other.
He quickly lowered Narcissa's arm and lifted her onto Draco's back, standing on the other side of them.
Draco was responsible for carrying the unconscious Narcissa. His steps were heavy, but he gritted his teeth and persisted.
"There's a fork in the road ahead, let's go around it—"
Just as Amanta opened her mouth, suddenly, a scream came from afar, piercing the night sky.
Her steps suddenly stopped.
Several children were forced into a corner, and Death Eaters in black cloaks surrounded them, as if playing a game of cat and mouse.
Looking at their faces, those kids looked indescribably familiar...
Amanta's eyes narrowed: "...It seems to be a few junior students from Hufflepuff."
"Look, these brats... can't run away, right?" A Death Eater laughed sinisterly, twirling his wand casually between his fingertips. "Kneel down obediently, maybe we can make you die more quickly."
"Don't... don't hurt us!" A boy protected his companions behind him in fear. Their robes had been torn to shreds.
Harry's expression suddenly changed.
"These lunatics!" He clenched his wand and was about to rush over.
Amanta quickly grabbed him and whispered, "We can't fight head-on. We can't even take care of ourselves... We must be quick, precise, and decisive!"
Harry nodded and the two glanced at each other quickly.
The next moment, Amanta raised her wand, aimed at the back of one of the Death Eaters, and said coldly, "Faint!"
The red spell beam hit the target instantly, and the Death Eater was knocked down unexpectedly and fell heavily to the ground.
The other Death Eaters turned their heads sharply and their expressions changed.
"who is it?!"
Harry no longer hesitated and raised his wand: "Expelliarmus!"
A blue beam of light flew out and hit the wand of another Death Eater, causing the wand to fly out of his hand instantly and fall into the sea of fire.
"Go!" Amanta shouted and motioned to the children.
The children were stunned for a moment, then nodded vigorously and crawled away towards another path.
"Who? You're looking for death!" The remaining two Death Eaters roared and cast spells at them together.
Amanta raised her hand.
"Armor protection!"
The armor barrier unfolded before her, blocking the first attack, sparks of fire flew everywhere, and her arms shook slightly.
This battle was far more realistic and dangerous than any previous training their SO team had ever received.
Harry dodged the incoming spell and quickly counterattacked.
Draco carried Narcissa on his back, clenched his teeth, and kept his head down, not daring to look up - he was afraid of being recognized by these Death Eaters.
He could only protect his mother tightly, endure the severe pain of the Dark Mark, and try his best not to become a burden to them.
Amanta's eyes were stern, and he quickly spotted a flaw.
She waved her wand, "Quickly imprison!"
Several thick ropes suddenly appeared and tightly wrapped around a Death Eater. The other party cursed angrily, but his body was strangled and unable to move.
"Great!" Harry looked at Amanta excitedly, "The SO team has been training for so long, and finally has a chance to practice!"
"You'd better take care of yourself first!" Amanta frowned, pulled Harry aside and avoided another spell.
