He maintained this expression for a full minute, and finally a few green veins appeared on his forehead, and the sides of his cheeks also stretched out to the forceful lines, as if he had made a great determination, and reached out and grabbed Liu Quan's arm fiercely.
"Let's go. He said succinctly, then grabbed Liu Quan's arm and walked forward.
Liu Quan was greatly surprised, and could only follow his footsteps, half-passively following him.
His speed was much slower than usual, and the hand he was holding on to Liu Quan's arm seemed to be subtly supporting Liu Quan's body. Liu Quan soon realized why he did this, a faint smile appeared on the corners of his lips, his eyebrows and eyes curled, and Fang Cai's sleepiness and exhaustion seemed to be swept away.
Their speed slowed down, and Lupin, with Peter Pettigrew floating in front of them, was long gone. The only sound of their footsteps sounded in the silent tunnel, click, click, click, click-
I don't know why, Liu Quan walked and smiled. And that smile spread across the corners of her eyebrows and eyes, making her breath tremble with a hint of briskness.
Snape soon noticed the change in Willow Spring, his body stiffened, and although his footsteps did not stop, the feeling of discomfort and irritation in him became more obvious. He strode heavily in displeasure, and the hand that held her was particularly strong. The tunnel was narrow enough to accommodate the two of them, and Snape walked a little faster, half a step ahead of Willow Spring. Liu Quan's previous sleepiness dissipated a lot, and his steps were much lighter.
They soon reached the hole at the foot of the beating willow. Harry, Ron, and Hermione had already climbed out first. Snape immediately let go of Willow Spring's hand, straightened his robes as if in disguise, and strode to the hole without saying a word.
...... Leaving Liu Quan behind.
Snape was the first to crawl out of the tunnel, only to see that Gryffindor's new troublemaker trio was still hugging around the beater. Confused and annoyed, he asked, "Potter, why are you still here?!"
But the three children were terrified, and before they could speak to him, he heard a wolf's howl behind him.
He turned around quickly, and the figure of a werewolf who had been completely transformed immediately appeared in his field of vision!
He gasped and subconsciously blocked the three children behind him, while yelling, "Don't come out! Lily!
Liu Quan was about to crawl out of the cave at this time. Of course, she also heard the wolf howl just now, and her heart was cold.
At this moment, the system bacteria that had been quiet for several years suddenly appeared again.
"Now release the fourth side quest in this world, Full Moon Night is Dangerous - Part 2. Description: Prevent the werewolf-turned-Remus Lupin from accidentally injuring or killing all the characters present except Peter Pediru. Since this quest is the second time, the difficulty is doubled. All superpowers that the player has acquired in other worlds will be sealed and unusable until the quest is successfully completed. The time limit for the mission is one hour. Now begin the sixty-minute countdown—"
Liu Quan felt that his heartbeat had soared past two hundred in an instant, and the blood in his whole body rushed to the top of his head.
One hour ...... This means that within this hour, not to mention the loss of life, any serious injury to any positive plot character present is considered a mission failure, except for Peter Pettigrew. But that doesn't mean she'll be able to throw Peter Pettigrew to the werewolf Lupin in full view of everyone in exchange for someone else's chance to get out - how can she explain it to everyone later?
Peter Pettigrew is one of the killers and key figures in the murder of the James. He must be tried by the Wizengamot and taken to Azkaban to be kissed by the Dementors. No one can end his life right now, not even if he's a complete villain.
The image of Snape standing in front of the three children quickly flashed through her mind - this image is so famous, especially for a professor fan - even if Liu Quan was not a professor fan in his previous life, he had seen this still. But the bad thing is that she really doesn't know much about the plot of this book, and of course, she can't imagine that the scene in this still actually happened tonight, and they are facing a complete werewolf!
Of course, she knew that no one's life would be in danger tonight. At most, it's just a little bit of an injury with no sequelae. But that didn't mean she could leave Snape alone to face a dangerous, powerful, and irrational werewolf.
The Marauder Quartet was only able to transform into an animal that werewolves wouldn't attack with their Animagus avatar, and then accompany Lupin through the night of the full moon and make sure he wouldn't run out and harm others. Now that there is only one big black dog left in the foursome who has just been tortured in Azkaban for a full twelve years, there is still sanity, and if Peter Pedirus is still petrified, he can only ensure that he does not run away and does not harm others, so what will the werewolf Lupin do in the face of three defenseless little wizards and a Snape who will not transform Animagus and protect the other three children?
Liu Quan didn't dare to think about it anymore. She quickly drew her wand and shouted at the mouth of the cave, "Divine Guard!"
A silver-white phoenix flew out of the tip of her staff and jumped straight out of the hole. She hurriedly said to the phoenix, "Quick! go to Professor Dumbledore and tell him that Lupin has changed and that everyone here is dangerous......"
The phoenix circled half a circle outside the entrance of the cave, and suddenly spread its wings and flew towards Hogwarts Castle, which was still lit up in the distance.
But in this way, Willow Springs is completely exposed.
The Patronus Phoenix flew out of the cave and sprinted straight between Snape and the werewolf. Even the irrational werewolf couldn't help but be startled by this silver-white phoenix and shrank back. But it was quickly enraged, and when it saw the phoenix fly away, it immediately turned its head to the hole under the beating willow - where the phoenix came from.
Snape's teeth were gritting, and he wondered if he was by Willow Spring's stubborn stupidity.
Liu Quan didn't stop doing anything, his hands propped up the ground at the entrance of the cave, his body jumped out, quickly turned around and dropped several obstacle spells and defense spells in front of them, and shouted, "Run!"
"You're ......!" Snape's face was horrible, as if his whole face was about to be deformed with anger. His hands were still spread defensively, keeping Harry, Ron, and Hermione in his back. But he didn't turn around and run away as Liu Quan said.
The werewolf Lupin howled, temporarily blocked by a dozen obstacle charms dropped by Willow Spring. He slammed angrily at the invisible barrier of mana condensed in the air. Liu Quan knew that even a dozen obstacle spells wouldn't last a few minutes.
Without looking back, she continued to stack all the spells she knew of that would temporarily resist the werewolves, urging in a hurried tone between the incantations, "Seefer, run!"
She really called Severus Snape that just to save time.
But it looks like no one else is convinced. Harry, Ron, and Hermione seemed to be directly petrified. Snape's face darkened, and he wondered if it was because she called him by his abbreviation, or because she didn't heed his warnings and jumped out to stand between them and the werewolf Lupin with the courage of "Gryffindor-style recklessness".
Snape drew his wand and quickly threw a simple healing charm at Ron's leg that had been bitten by the black dog Siris, and then still stood in front of the three young wizards, and said succinctly, "Run, go back to the castle." ”
Hermione immediately realized that now was not the time to play with herself, and agreed, helping Ron to turn around and run. Although Ron's leg was less painful, the healing spell didn't heal his injured leg immediately, and he still limped when he walked, which was very inconvenient.
Hermione helped Ron up a few steps before she realized that Harry was standing still. After a few minutes, she saw that Snape, though still in front of them, drew his wand and fired a defensive charm at Professor Evans, sending a series of sparks from the tip of his staff. Professor Evans had no intention of turning and running away, and Hermione saw that in the moonlight she was firing spells in a graceful posture, constantly shifting, and the tip of her staff was constantly glowing against the approaching and increasingly irritable werewolf.
Hermione's eyes were on fire, and she whispered, "Harry, run, why are you ......?"
Harry stood still, and it took a few seconds before he replied, "But Siris...... Knocked off the cliff by a werewolf, I want to make sure he's okay......"
Hermione gritted her teeth and said quickly, "Professor Evans will definitely go and save him! You didn't notice the tone in which the two of them were talking in the screaming shack just now? they had known each other before! Harry! They were both Gryffindors, maybe they were still good friends! You didn't notice that Professor Evans had never suspected him from beginning to end?......"
Harry looked back at Hermione hesitantly, and said with some hesitation, "Ah...... Maybe...... I didn't pay attention...... But ......"
Just then, they heard an exclamation from Professor Evans, who had always been at the front.
The three little wizards looked up in horror to find that the weak spell protection had finally been broken by the brute force of the werewolves! Snape seemed to let out a low curse, as if he was about to stride forward in front of Professor Evans, as if doing so would allow Professor Evans to be eaten by the werewolves later.
Hermione and Ron were terrified to death, rushing up and sandwiching Harry in the middle, dragging him around and running. Hermione desperately grabbed Harry, who still wanted to turn back, and Ron seemed to have long forgotten that he still had a broken leg in tow, and he often lost his balance when stepping on a stone and did not complain about leg pain. Even so, they weren't fast enough to flee for their lives—well, in the eyes of the two adult wizards behind them, slow.
Snape cursed loudly, and in an instant he was about to rush to stop the impostor. But to his surprise, the imposter who had "only Gryffindor-style blood and no brains in his head at the critical moment" finally knew how to turn and run for his life - she turned around and rushed at him, and before he could react, she shoved him in the chest so hard that he immediately staggered back a few steps, and there was a pain in his chest.
He saw that the imposter's beautiful green eyes that belonged to Lily shot out extremely brightly, like fireworks bursting in the air, so bright that people dared not look at it. She screamed in a distorted voice, "Silver, run, run!"
Behind her, the tall werewolf stood upright, as if it was about to lean down and pounce on her, tearing her apart. The claw had hooked into the red hair that was scattered behind her, fluttering in the night wind—
Just at the last moment, a huge black dog suddenly rushed out of the oblique thorn and pounced on the werewolf's face!
The werewolf let out a terrible howl, and seemed to be pounced on by the fierce onslaught of the big black dog, and almost fell. He soon became furious because of this, and his attention was completely turned to the big black dog, trying to grab the big black dog in his hands and throw it down the mountain again!
The big black dog was lonely but did not flinch, biting him on the shoulder, tearing and beating the werewolf all the way, and went far away.
