Elwyn waved his wand lightly, and the surrounding trees came to life.
They stretched out their ugly branches and twisted into treants, shielding Hermione, Ron, and Mr. Crouch.
"Come out, I know you're here!" Elwyn yelled.
His voice reverberated in the forest, creating waves of echoes that spread into the distance.
Elwyn placed his wand in front of his chest and took two steps forward. He seemed to be defenseless and had nothing to protect himself with.
He was looking for Barty Crouch Jr.'s hiding place, ready to lure him out.
Barty Crouch Jr. was also looking for an opportunity to get rid of Elwyn.
"The people in the castle will be here soon. You don't have much time left!" Elwyn said, looking around.
He was highly focused. Barty Crouch Jr. couldn't afford to drag things out any longer.
The next second, the battle began!
Without any warning, Elwyn lunged forward, dodging a deadly spell flying at him from the side.
He quickly waved his wand, and a magic barrier with silver ripples suddenly rose from the thin air. It collided with the dark green light, emitting dazzling sparks and the strange sound of flowing water.
In between his opponent's attacks, Elwyn waved his wand and pointed in the direction of the spell.
A ball of dark blue light shot out from the tip of the wand, crashing into a tree in the distance.
The tree's trunk was rapidly corroded, withering at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Elwyn heard heavy footsteps. Barty Crouch Jr. quickly dodged his Corrosive Spell.
With the light from the surrounding flames, he saw a figure clumsily pouncing into the trees in the distance.
Elwyn didn't give his opponent a chance to catch his breath. He flicked his wand up high, and a pillar of fire rose from the trees. It was at least five feet tall and scorching hot. If Barty Crouch Jr. hid inside, there was no way he could survive.
He had no choice but to give up on hiding. Elwyn saw Barty Crouch Jr. in the flames.
In order not to be discovered, he had used magic to change from Moody's appearance back to his original appearance.
He had a head of disheveled light yellow hair, and a face as pale as paper with a crazy, perverted smile.
His body was burned by the flames, but he didn't scream in pain. Instead, there was a hint of excitement on his face.
This fellow was really an out-and-out lunatic!
Then, the burning pillar of fire turned into a fountain, and the water splashed everywhere, turning into poisonous insects on the ground.
They made clicking sounds as they crowded together and swarmed toward Elwyn.
With Elwyn at the center, the circular ring of flames spread outward.
The insects screamed in pain as they were burned by the flames, then turned into wisps of black smoke and disappeared.
At the same time, a strong wind blew, and the flames that Elwyn had set up in the surroundings were quickly extinguished. Darkness struck again.
The two of them panted, but they didn't continue to fight. They just stood there quietly.
The exchange just now had allowed Elwyn and Barty Crouch Jr. to roughly understand each other's strength.
Neither could defeat the other in a short period of time. If the stalemate continued, it would undoubtedly be to Elwyn's advantage.
Barty Crouch Jr. understood this as well. He didn't expect Elwyn to be so difficult to deal with, and he was a little anxious.
Then, his gaze fell on Ron, Hermione, and Crouch Jr. who were protected by the Ent.
The battle continued. While Barty Crouch Jr. dodged Elwyn's attacks, he aimed at Ron and Hermione.
Streaks of green spells collided with the Ent. Wood splinters flew everywhere, and a terrifying sound was heard.
Soon, they were reduced to a pile of powder.
Elwyn couldn't care less about attacking his opponent. He had to defend Ron, Hermione, and Mr. Crouch with all his might.
There was no need to defeat Barty Crowe Jr. as long as he continued to persevere.
At this moment, Mr. Crouch suddenly stood up, as if agitated by the battle.
He returned to normal, pointing in horror at Barty Crouch Jr., who was not far away. His eyes were wide open, and his body was trembling.
"My dear father!" Barty Crowe Jr. said silently, licking his lips.
In the darkness, the cruel and strange smile on his face became more obvious. He looked at Mr. Crouch with great interest.
"Help me! Help me!" Mr. Crouch swayed and pounced on Elwyn. He grabbed his robe tightly and shouted, "I must see Dumbledore, my son, the Dark Devil!"
"Damn it!" Elwyn struggled and conjured a protective shield. "I'm helping you now. Just stay there."
Mr. Crouch Jr. had completely lost his mind. He was terrified of his son. He wrapped himself tightly around Elwyn.
Bang! A red light flashed and hit Mr. Crouch Jr..
Elwyn had no choice but to send him flying. If he didn't want to die here …
Mr. Crouch Jr. let go of Elwyn and flew backward, crashing heavily into a tree trunk. His head was bleeding.
"The Dark Devil has become stronger! He has obtained a powerful evil power!" He struggled to stand up, waving his arms as he screamed and ran into the woods. "It's all my fault, it's all my fault, I must tell Dumbledore, I can't let the Dark Demon succeed!"
He quickly disappeared into the dense woods. Barty Crouch Jr. hurriedly chased after him.
Elwyn hesitated. He looked at Ron and Hermione on the ground and did not follow.
Mr. Crouch Jr. was finished. Barty Crouch Jr. would not let him go.
Elwyn could not save him even if he chased after him now. Instead, he might put Ron and Hermione in danger.
Although he was unwilling to admit it, letting Barty Crouch Jr. finish off the other party was in the best interest of both parties.
Let the plan proceed according to the original script. Barty Crouch Jr.'s identity could not be exposed.
Elwyn was more concerned about what Crouch Jr. said at the end. What did he mean?
Lord Voldemort had obtained an even more powerful evil power. What progress had he made in becoming an evil god?
Also, why did Mr. Crouch Jr. suddenly come to the Hogwarts? Barty Crouch Jr. had obviously received the news and was waiting for him here.
Immediately, Elwyn thought of Keresis. Perhaps this was the result of that vampire's struggle against Lord Voldemort.
He had to admit that he had really caused a lot of trouble for both parties at this critical juncture!
Elwyn checked on Hermione and Ron. They had only fainted. Barty Crouch Jr. did not kill them.
"Quickly, wake up!" Elwyn said softly, pointing his wand at Hermione.
Hermione opened her eyes, her face blank. What happened? She seemed to be lying on someone's lap.
