Ultimate Purpose

Barty Crouch. finally revealed his true colors, confessing everything he knew under Professor Snape's Veritaserum.

"Hehehe, it's too late now. Why do you think the monster army attacked Hogwarts Academy for no reason?" Barty licked his lips, grinning wickedly. "It's all because of this one strike! This was no easy feat. Haha know, assassinating a Demigod! Haha, I actually succeeded!"

"Enough with the nonsense, Crouch. What was the point of all that trouble you went to assassinate Headmaster Dumbledore?" Professor Snape seemed a little impatient. These Death Eaters were too crazy. Communicating with them was exhausting, even with the Veritaserum.

"Of course, it's for those people in the Map of Mountains and Seas! Hehehehe, even if Dumbledore doesn't die, he'll be in a coma for a long time. That's my goal. Now, no one can control the Map of Mountains and Seas!"

"Damn it, their target is still Potter and Su Yu!"

Professor Snape was greatly alarmed. After entrusting the place to Professor McGonagall and the others, he quickly turned around and went to find Grindelwald.

Meanwhile, inside the Map of Mountains and Seas, Su Yu was leisurely fishing. He and Phoebe had been waiting in the central circle for more than 10 days, but they hadn't seen anyone come, and they hadn't seen the treasure that Dumbledore had mentioned either.

"Su Yu, are you making fish hot pot again tonight? I really miss that taste."

After spending more than ten days together, Phoebe was no longer so reserved with Su Yu, and even joked with him sometimes.

"You'll have to ask Kurama. As long as she's willing to catch fish, everything else is a minor problem."

"But weren't you fishing?"

"Who says fishing guarantees you'll catch fish?" Su Yu rolled his eyes at Phoebe, feeling like she was mocking him for not catching anything all day!

"Haha Haha! Quick! Look at the big fish I caught!"

Just then, Kurama rushed over excitedly, carrying a fish several times larger than herself. It landed with a "thud" in front of Su Yu and Phoebe, proudly raising its head and wagging its tail.

"Slap, slap!" Kurama was so excited that he didn't notice and was slapped twice across the face by the big fish rolling on the ground.

"Damn it, I'm going to eat you tonight!"

"Wow! Kurama is awesome! We can have fish tonight!"

"Harry, why haven't we seen a single person along the way?"

Summers and Harry have been flying towards the center of the circle on their broomsticks for the past few days, but the broomsticks only go so fast and they also consume energy, so the two of them can only rest while flying, and they really can't increase their speed.

Harry pulled out a map and compared the directions, flipping through it for Empress of Heaven concluding, "Following this direction, we'll probably need to fly for another five days or so to reach the center of the circle."

"But what I'm asking is why we haven't run into anyone..." Summers muttered.

"Really? Sorry, I might have been thinking about something else just now," Harry scratched his head. He had indeed been thinking about something else. Ever since he came to this place, the scar on his forehead had started to ache frequently. At first, he didn't pay much attention to it, but in the past few days, as the pain had lasted longer and longer, he couldn't help but worry.

"Harry, you said... Spread out! There's an attack!"

While they were talking, Summers suddenly yelled at Harry, "Attack!" The two barely managed to dodge two blades of energy, but due to the impact of the attack, they also fell from the sky with a loud thud.

"Puff puff puff..." Protected by the Kurama Cloak, Harry and Summers, though they fell rather awkwardly, weren't seriously injured. "Who is it? Who attacked us?"

"Harry, are you alright?" Summers' head was still spinning, clearly not quite back to his senses, but his instincts kicked in with concern for Harry beside him. "Be careful, those are definitely students from other houses! What animal can unleash a blade of energy..."

"Hehehehe, of course it's us, the legendary the Chosen One, Harry Potter! You've kept us waiting for so many days." Tsuruta Gihei held his long sword horizontally in front of his chest, followed by five classmates. The six of them slowly approached and surrounded Harry and his companion. "Do you need any last words, gentlemen?"

"Harry, I'll hold them off. If things get tough, remember to crush the necklace on your wrist!" Summers, wand in hand, stood in front of Harry. This brave little badger, even when surrounded, immediately shielded the younger children behind him.

Watching Summers continuously cast spells, which were easily parried by Tsuruta Gihei, Harry knew that the two of them were no match for the six people in front of them. But what could he do? He didn't even know any offensive spells. Harry was starting to regret it. Why had he been so playful all the time and not learned any fighting techniques? If Hermione were here, she would surely have plenty of ways to retaliate, wouldn't she?

"Harry, stop daydreaming! Find a chance to escape!" Summers was still struggling to resist the attack from the six men. The Kurama Cloak protected him from all harm, but Summers knew that the Kurama Cloak was not eternal and would eventually run out of energy. Before that happened, they had to try their best to find a way to escape.

On the other side, Neville didn't walk too fast. He strolled leisurely through the forest, seemingly admiring the scenery, sometimes feeding the squirrels and rabbits along the path with breadcrumbs and nuts.

"Since you're here, come out. What's the point of hiding?"

Neville was feeding the squirrel in front of him when he suddenly uttered this inexplicable remark to the person behind him.

Naba Kulibaly, accompanied by seven Champion from the Uagadou, slowly emerged from behind a large tree.

"Naba Koolibaly? I heard you're from a royal family in Africa, right? You have the title of Moshir, and you're from a wizarding royal family. So, does your Uagadou also want to be an enemy of the Hogwarts Academy?"

Neville was not intimidated by the scene before him; he was no longer the timid little boy he once was.

"Neville - Longbottom, by the Dark Lord, came to give birth to you, who was also born at the end of July. Whether you are the Chosen One or not, today you will die here." Naba Koolibaly spoke broken English, his dark skin gleaming in the sun, making him look somewhat disgusting.

"When did I become the Chosen One? And when did your Uagadou join Voldemort?"

Neville was somewhat surprised; he felt his mind reeling. Were these people joking? But it really wasn't funny...
