Chapter 541: Chapter 540 Battle Situation
Jon and Grindelwald looked at each other.
The candle flame in the room was dancing, reflecting their shadows on the wall like mayflies in the water.
"A good harvest?"
Jon held out a finger, and without any more forewarning, a cluster of blue flames lit up from his fingertip!
Then the flame became more and more vigorous, which was also mixed with some sharp invisible blades. Finally, he flexed his finger and flicked, the flame and the blades all disappeared into thin air as if the previous scenes were just a mirage in the water.
When Grindelwald saw this, he revealed a surprise that he had never shown on his face before.
"If you can reach this level, it is considered a victory!"
Jon, however, shook his head, compared to the others, he was actually more self-aware of his situation.
"I can only call it a half success, All that magic does allow me to have full control and use it now, but the emotional layer still lacks a certain something."
"Isn't that something you've already thought of a way to deal with before, utilising the emotions that the original owner of the magic itself has to use it?"
"Theoretically such a method is feasible, but in practice, it has never allowed me to truly succeed, and I can only reach this current level."
Grindelwald, however, did not look discouraged.
"It's enough to reach this level, there's not much we can do to prepare until we're completely sure of what we're going to do and then begin it."
Jon agreed with that, knowing that things had progressed more smoothly than they could have ever imagined and that they would have to let fate decide what the final outcome would be after they had put their best foot forward.
"Is there anything else that needs to be prepared?" Grindelwald asked, looking at Jon.
Jon mused.
"All the preparations we need to make have already been done, the next thing depends on who can't hold back first. The current battle is crucial, if it's us who ends up with the absolute advantage, then the one who can't wait will be Voldemort, and if we're at a disadvantage at the end of the day, then we'll be passive in our choices."
Just as Jon spoke, the fireplace in the room suddenly pulsed with a green flame, and after a burst of light distortion, a human face revealed itself in the middle of the fireplace.
"Mr Headmaster, the Dark Lord. He has appeared!"
Jon and Grindelwald rose out of their chairs with a jolt, they glanced at each other and both could instantly guess what had happened on the battlefield!
***
"Hurry up and get Holger out of here! He can't hold out much longer!"
Lupin shouted, dragging a bearded male wizard beside him who had slipped into unconsciousness and was half covered in blood, and handing him over to the Witching Horizon wizard who was in charge of moving the wounded!
Sirius gasped for breath and stood next to him, and in front of them, there was a wide open space, and above the open space, countless antennae-like things were wandering and floating, those were the [No-Fly Antennas] invented by the Weasley twins, and these gadgets played an unexpected role in the battlefield, laying a great foundation for the advantageous situation that Witching Horizon was occupying now.
And beside them, there were hundreds of wizards gathered!
Almost about half of the elite forces of the entire Witching Horizon were positioned here, commanded by Lupin and assisted by Sirius.
Large-scale wars where crowds gathered would rarely happen between wizards in general, and basically, they were small-scale battles in groups of three or five.
However, the reality was that the more small-scale battles were fought in encounters, the more grievous the casualties on both sides in terms of personnel were, so grievous that both sides found it unacceptable.
Wizards may not be a scarce resource, but it is not easy to train a wizard who can excel in battle.
In the early skirmishes, both sides had experienced extremely serious depletion in personnel, so at this stage nowadays, no matter if it was Voldemort's British-French United Ministry of Magic side or the Witching Horizon side, they all tacitly integrated the originally dispersed wizard squads together.
They don't intend to just purely carry out small-scale special operations, that way, even if one side eventually won, it would be a disastrous victory of killing a thousand enemies and losing eight hundred of their own, and the two sides, no matter who it is, they can't accept such a situation.
Therefore, the current scene which was similar to a duel had appeared.
This open space in front of Lupin and the others was the battleground for the duel, and at this time, that piece of land had already been splattered with blood, so obviously, this was not a battle that had just begun.
And of course, this battlefield with Lupin and his group was not the only one out there, Kingsley and Moody were still leading a portion of their people in another area, which was likewise just as tragic as this place.
"How long have they been at a standstill?"
Sirius asked Lupin as he finally calmed his breathing, wiping away the little blood that remained on his face.
"Forty-seven minutes, and it's been almost an hour since their last wave of attacks."
"I really can't understand why you gave that mission to Tonks, aren't you guy-"
"We've known each other for so long, do you think I would favour her in a matter like this just because she's my lover?"
Lupin's voice was calm.
"By now, whether it's me, you or Kingsley, we can already see very clearly that none of us will still be left alive if we lose this war, so by this time, is the so-called caring still necessary?"
Sirius let out a long breath.
"It doesn't matter, you'll always have to think about it more than I do anyway."
And just between their conversations, a commotion suddenly came from the opposite slope over the clearing, and in the next second, all the Witching Horizon wizards guarding the area, no matter whether it was Lupin or Sirius, became alert!
They ended this hard-won rest, and the muscles in their hands, which had been relaxed, gripped their wands even harder at this point.
And by this time, they could already see that in the opposite direction, countless incantations had already lit up and shot towards the [No-Fly Antenna] that was floating in the sky.
This was the fixed offensive strategy of the British and French United Ministry of Magic, who had an almost obsessive possessive desire for air control, and before every battle, they would spend a great deal of energy to clean up these inventions of the Weasley twins.
But this time, both Lupin and Sirius could clearly feel that these Pureblood Union forces were moving much more aggressively than before!
"Close to fifteen minutes earlier! Why would they suddenly change their tactics, what are they trying to do in such a hurry?"
Lupin murmured and asked, but in fact, while asking, he already had an answer within him.
"Kingsley's side has made a big gain! Tonks has led a victorious mission!"
Sirius shouted out excitedly!
"These people we're facing in front of us, they can't wait! They're afraid of being surrounded by Kingsley combined with us!"
Soon, several owls arrived and confirmed it, and it was true that there was a major breakthrough on Kingsley's side of the battlefield!
Lupin and Sirius understood what they needed to do at this moment even without using their brains.
As long as they could hold on to this place! When Kingsley completely dealt with the situation over there, then they could completely end the confrontation between the two sides!
However, just as they made their decision.
An extremely disturbing black fog, without knowing when enveloped the entire sky!
