After Lord Voldemort crashed to the ground, a hint of confusion flickered across his pale face.

He hadn't expected that the methods Chen Yu used would not only pierce through the black mist and destroy all his defenses, but also obliterate his clothes and wand.

After getting up, he looked at Chen Yu and the others in the sky, then glanced at Hogwarts Castle in the distance.

His eyes revealed a gaze of resentment.

Although losing his wand didn't mean losing his spell-casting ability, it still affected the full display of his strength.

The Muggle weapons Chen Yu carried didn't cause him much harm, but the booming sound they produced was clearly audible throughout almost the entire forest.

Dumbledore, that old immortal, was still inside Hogwarts Castle, and his current state was indeed not suitable for a confrontation with him.

Especially with Dumbledore potentially coming to check on the situation at any moment.

To fight or to flee?

After a brief internal deliberation, Lord Voldemort decided on a strategic retreat, planning to return the humiliation he suffered this time with double the intensity once he obtained the Philosopher's Stone and resurrected.

"You were lucky this time; next time, you will surely die by my hand!"

Lord Voldemort glared at Chen Yu and the others with hatred, then turned and vanished from the spot.

Chen Yu in mid-air saw Lord Voldemort fall to the ground, get up, turn around, and disappear using Apparition, and he also breathed a sigh of relief.

If Lord Voldemort had persisted in chasing, and Dumbledore or other professors hadn't arrived yet, then he would have had no choice but to use Avada Kedavra or Fiendfyre.

If he used Sectumsempra, it was not impossible for Lord Voldemort to discover the problem in advance.

Moreover, in this skirmish, Chen Yu also discovered his own shortcomings.

Although he had three powerful offensive methods—Sectumsempra, Avada Kedavra, and Fiendfyre—these methods could not be used in front of Hogwarts professors and students.

Once discovered by them, he would likely be treated as a Dark Wizard by the Ministry of Magic, so in this world, it was best to avoid using them if possible.

And using ordinary offensive spells against Lord Voldemort was even less effective and powerful than hot weapons.

However, the power of ordinary hot weapons was still somewhat insufficient against top-tier wizards.

Although the origin bullet could also serve as a trump card, it usually couldn't achieve good results and could only be used as an unexpected killing move.

If Director Kenneth hadn't injected a large amount of magic power to strengthen the Volumen Hydrargyrum's defense and connected it to the magic circuit, the origin bullet would not have left Director Kenneth severely disabled on the spot.

Furthermore, even if an origin bullet hit Lord Voldemort, whether it would be effective was another matter entirely.

It seems next time I need to ask Tony if he can get me nuclear warheads or more potent TNT explosives.

However, given Tony's current disposition, he probably wouldn't give me such dangerous weapons.

So, should I make time to visit the Middle East in Tony's world, find a terrorist base, and scavenge for weapons to replenish my arsenal?

Just as Chen Yu was contemplating, a cry of alarm came from Harry's side.

Hagrid, who had held on until now, finally collapsed from exhaustion.

By the time Harry sensed something was wrong behind him, it was too late; Hagrid's hand had already released the flying broom, and his massive body was plummeting from high in the sky.

Harry quickly steered his flying broom to grab Hagrid.

But Hagrid's weight was far more than Harry, a Little Wizards, could handle.

He fell from the flying broom, taking Harry with him.

Seeing this, Chen Yu quickly cast a Levitation Charm on both of them.

"Wingardium Leviosa!"

"Wingardium Leviosa!"

Two Levitation Charms were cast on Harry and Hagrid.

By the time they landed safely on the ground, they saw Fang racing out from the dense woods.

As soon as he arrived, he jumped around the unconscious Hagrid, licking Hagrid's face with his tongue, attempting to wake him up in this way.

Chen Yu did not relax his vigilance; besides Fang, there were other movements coming from the dense woods.

Chen Yu somewhat suspected that Lord Voldemort hadn't left, and that his departure might just be a smokescreen, preparing to cast a spell for a probing attack.

"Wait! Wizard, we are Hagrid's friends!"

Two figures emerged again from the dense woods.

Both were Centaurs, with the upper body of a human and the lower body of a horse.

The leading Centaur had white-blonde hair, and from the waist down was the body of a silver-maned horse.

His upper body was bare, revealing a strong chest; an iron axe hung at his waist, and a quiver was slung across his back.

A basket full of herbs hung on his horse's body.

He hung the bow and arrow he held in his hand on the waist of his horse, indicating he had no ill intentions.

The other was actually a female Centaur; unlike Firenze, who was bare-chested, she wore brown leather armor covering her private parts, and a long sword was diagonally slung at her human waist.

Her hair and horse's body were both white, and a bow and arrow and a small round shield were hung on each side of her horse's body.

She looked only in her thirties, in the prime of her youth, and appeared much more refined than the unkempt male Centaurs.

Chen Yu was somewhat shocked to see a female Centaur, as female Centaurs had never appeared in the original work or the movies.

But thinking about it, Centaurs don't just produce Little Centaurs through photosynthesis; how could there only be male Centaurs?

"I am Firenze, and this is Lorisa; we came to investigate the situation."

Firenze explained, "Your battle just now—I mean... those sounds and flashes—scared the children in the tribe, and we had to calm them down."

Firenze explained the reason for their delayed arrival and then continued, "We brought medicinal herbs, which should help Hagrid."

Lorisa had also witnessed the battle and would not take Chen Yu lightly just because he appeared to be a child.

She pawed at the dirt on the ground uneasily with her hooves and explained to Chen Yu, "Mars is getting brighter and brighter, and everyone believes this is a bad omen. Many Centaurs feel that the will of heaven cannot be defied and want to let everything take its natural course."

"The elders burned sage to further interpret the stars, and the results showed that war was approaching, causing widespread panic. Everyone debated intensely for a long time but couldn't make up their minds, so we secretly ran out to check on the situation."

Chen Yu knew Firenze, the Centaur; he was one of the few Centaurs in the Centaur tribe who were not so hostile towards humans.

So he slightly lowered his guard, watching as Firenze briefly examined Hagrid's body, then placed his palm on Hagrid's injured back, his hands emitting a faint white light.

Then he took out some herbs, chewed them, and applied them to Hagrid's injured back.

"Hagrid has half-giant blood, which gives him strong magical resistance but also reduces the effectiveness of magical healing. I can only do some simple magical treatment and apply herbs to him."

"However, fortunately, his half-giant blood grants him powerful regenerative abilities. He is only unconscious now due to excessive blood loss, and he should recover mostly after seven or eight days of rest."

"If you are still worried, you can let Hagrid recuperate with Madam Pomfrey at your school; she is a well-known healer, and with her care, Hagrid will recover faster."

Centaurs can cast spells without a wand and are highly skilled in magical healing, divination, archery, and astronomy.

Firenze was treating Hagrid, while Lorisa paced around Harry.

She stared at Harry, or more precisely, at the lightning scar on Harry's forehead.

Then, uncertainly, she asked Harry, "Are you the Potter child?"

Harry was somewhat bewildered, not knowing why this female Centaur recognized him, but he answered her question: "Yes, I am Harry Potter."

Lorisa bent down, carefully scrutinizing Harry, and said in a cheerful tone, "I know you, we all know you, the boy who lived, the boy who ended the reign of the terrifying Dark Lord, the lightning scar is your mark. The Centaurs have always been very grateful for everything you've done, and you are welcome to visit the Centaurs anytime."

Then she turned to Chen Yu and said, "You are also welcome, powerful..."

Mid-sentence, she paused.

She didn't know how to describe the Little Wizards in front of her.

To call him a child, yet he wielded magic more powerful than an adult wizard.

The magic power contained within his body was already several times that of an average adult wizard.

To call him a wizard, yet he looked like a child the same age as Harry.

Looking at Harry and Chen Yu, Lorisa recalled other Little Wizards who had gotten lost in the Forbidden Forest and been led out by Centaurs, and she sighed inwardly, "The difference between people is sometimes greater than the difference between a mule and a horse."

"Just call me Chen Yu."

Chen Yu responded politely.

At this moment, a silver-grey tabby cat was still on its way.
