Chapter 250 Surrounded
Gloria put her index finger on her lips and signaled the people behind her to keep quiet.
Neville quickly pursed his lips, trying not to make any sound.
Then he began to lead the way, without even requiring Harry to walk in front.
Everyone trusted her and followed her without asking any questions, while Harry paid attention to the doors around him.
Gloria brought them to the door of the Prophecy Hall and pushed it open.
Ron peered inside. "Is this the place?" he asked Harry.
Harry nodded vigorously, "It's here. I've been here in my dreams."
He was impressed by the shelves and balls that filled the room.
Apart from the faint light from the prophecy ball, there was no other light source, so Gloria walked in first.
Probably thinking that there was no one inside, Ron asked, "Do you know the location?"
"Ninety-seven," said Harry. "But I don't know where ninety-seven is."
Draco glanced at them and said, "Follow Lori."
Gloria already knew the exact location of the prophecy ball, and the insider had mentioned it in the letter.
Harry and the others also noticed that after coming in, she didn't ask a single question about that thing, as if she knew everything.
Gloria walked quickly until she reached the end of one of the rows of shelves and stopped.
Draco walked over to look at the number on the shelf. "It's ninety-seven."
Several people gathered around, their eyes scanning the glass balls one by one.
"There!" Hermione pointed upwards.
Everyone looked up and saw a ball with Harry and Voldemort's names on it.
Luna said softly, "It looks like that's the one."
"Harry," Gloria said, "Take it down. Only you and Voldemort can touch this prophecy."
"The prophecy?" Ron had heard of it. "Is that what he's looking for?"
Harry reached out and took the ball down. The shelves here were wiped clean, but the ball was covered with dust and felt warm in his hand.
Gloria held out her hand. "Give it to me."
Harry hesitated for only two seconds before placing the orb in her hands.
Gloria held the prophecy ball and slowly turned to look into the darkness.
Draco had his wand drawn.
"Leah?" Hermione already felt something was wrong, "Pull out your wand!"
Several people followed suit and pointed their wands into the darkness.
"hehe--"
The sudden laughter scared Harry and the others. Besides being frightened, they were also confused. Could it be that Gloria already knew about the situation?
"Miss Slytherin is really perceptive and knows we are here."
There were rustling sounds all around them, and dark figures surrounded them. Harry quickly pointed his wand at the shadow closest to him.
There were more people on the other side, and their glowing wands were pointed at them, slightly illuminating the surroundings.
A tall wizard appeared in the light. He had brown curly hair, sea blue eyes, fair skin, and an extremely handsome appearance.
"It's you!" Harry was shocked.
The memory of the graveyard last summer was still fresh in his mind, and he could not forget the person who had helped Voldemort return to his physical form.
Especially the opponent's distinctive pair of blood-stained white gloves, the bloodstains on them looked even more eerie under the dim light.
"Van der Vries," Gloria asked. "Is that your real name?"
Unlike other Death Eaters who wore masks to hide themselves completely, Fan showed his true face.
"It's an honor to have Miss Slytherin remember my name."
The Death Eaters who heard this couldn't help but look at him.
"De Vries!" a hoarse female voice shouted, "You are a servant of the Dark Lord!"
Fan's expression remained unchanged. He stared at Gloria calmly, as if he didn't hear what was said.
The witch in black robes came over and lifted her hood, revealing her messy black hair.
Harry recognized the face, as did the others.
"Bellatrix..." Neville was the most emotional.
Bellatrix smiled triumphantly, "Neville Longbottom? Are your parents okay?"
It was obvious that she remembered the 'great achievements' she had made.
That sharp laugh was like a sting piercing Neville's heart. "Much better. One day..."
"Neville!" Gloria interrupted him in a loud voice.
Fred and George also stopped him from rushing over.
Bellatrix looked at Draco, "Your parents disappoint me, especially Narcissa."
The boy said nothing, but his raised wand showed his attitude.
Fan was not in a hurry at all and said, "Let's continue with the previous topic. Miss Slytherin already knows we are here."
"He wants to get the prophecy, so of course he has to help Harry clear the obstacles." Gloria said, "Besides, you have led away many of the guards, so it's easy to control this place and let us arrive smoothly."
Ginny couldn't help but gasp, she had actually expected this.
After saying this, she asked, "Where is Tonks? I have to see that she is still alive before the deal can continue."
"Hahaha!" Bellatrix's sharp laughter echoed throughout the Hall of Prophecy. "You don't think you have a choice?"
Gloria held the orb in her hand and immediately turned her palm downwards, "Of course. If you don't let me know about Tonks's situation, I will assume that you killed her. If she dies, there is no need for this prophecy orb to exist."
Her voice was colder than ever before, "The fact that I dare to come here means I am sure you can all stay!"
A group of Death Eaters looked at Van again.
If Gloria hadn't been here, they would never have taken these kids seriously.
But this girl was different. According to people who were present on the night the Dark Lord returned, the girl who claimed to be the heir of Slytherin actually had a battle with the Dark Lord.
And they didn't even have the courage to raise their wands against the Dark Lord.
"I know you are the daughter of Rael." Bellatrix said impatiently, "Your father served the Dark Lord when he was alive. He was only two years older than you are now. You should inherit his legacy. Why bother about that bastard?"
"Ha!" Harry sneered from behind, "Voldemort doesn't deserve it at all."
Voldemort was not worthy of loyalty, whether to Leah or anyone else.
"How dare you say his name with your bastard tongue!" Bella screamed.
Harry's heart was burning with anger, but his voice sounded calm, "Bastard? Your master is also a bastard, his mother is a wizard and his father is a Muggle, you don't know?"
There was so much sarcasm in his words that the other Death Eaters wished they could disappear right where they were.
Bellatrix's tarnished face twisted, a red light shot out from her wand, and Gloria blocked the spell with one hand before Van.
The transparent defense cancels out the red light.
She said coldly: "At least Harry's mother is a wizard, but Voldemort's father is a Muggle who has no magic at all."
Bellatrix gasped and was about to attack again, but Van raised his hand and grabbed her.
"Remember the main task of the night," he said, "You want to know about Miss Tonks's safety, of course."
Gloria is not a weak student. Fan had guessed that she would be like this, and Voldemort agreed to bring her here.
