Chapter 160: A Change of Mood
Click, click, click
Evan saw that Peter Pettigrew's short, fat body was picked up by an eight-eyed giant spider, his head hanging in the air, his hands struggling weakly down, and the expression on his face was extremely frightened.
"Please, Aven, please, save me" A flash of joy flashed over Peter Pettigrew's panicked face at the sight of Aven.
He stretched out his arm to Aven, pleading miserably.
He tried to break free from the eight-eyed spider's clutche, but his weak resistance was useless.
The eight-eyed spider clamped Peter tightly with its two long, furry legs in the front, dragging him toward the center of the woods.
Click, click, click
They brushed past Evan and disappeared into the darkness of the trees.
As soon as Evan moved, the two eight-eyed spiders in front of him pounced.
They stop Evan from saving Peter Pettigrew.
Sixteen pairs of shiny, fierce black eyes all locked on Aivan, and the sharp claws clicked together, and the sound sounded numb.
Evan took a half-step back, and with the faint glow of his wand, he saw an eight-eyed spider slamming its long, long, fluffy legs straight at the ground, and the other quickly climbed onto the towering oak tree beside him and swooped down.
They are ready to attack from top to bottom, and the situation is very critical.
Evan didn't hesitate, he left the oak tree beside him and rushed towards the eight-eyed giant spider in front of him.
His wand emitted a brilliant light, like an out-of-body sword, directly splitting the eight-eyed giant spider in front of him in half from the center.
After killing the eight-eyed spider, Evan hurriedly raised his head.
He chanted a quick incantation from his mouth, his wand coming from the bottom up, the same spell with a dazzling glow towards the spider that had just swooped down from the trunk.
Poof!!
The spider's green, sticky blood splattered and flew everywhere.
The remains of the corpses fell heavily to the ground, dead the moment their bodies were broken in two. But their palpitating claws were still using all their strength, quickly and frantically biting at the empty air, as if they had caught Aven.
The ferocity of the eight-eyed giant spider can be seen from this.
In the rating of the book "Where Are the Magical Creatures", the eight-eyed giant spider is the highest level of danger like werewolves, and is one of the most dangerous magical species currently known.
Yesterday at Hogsmeade, Evan had fought werewolves.
Luckily, the Eight-Eyed Spider doesn't have the terrifying defense and recovery power of a werewolf, and any attack magic of a certain strength can damage them. Just be careful not to get touched by their extremely sharp and poisonous claws.
The Forbidden Forest was quiet again, as if nothing had happened.
Evan gasped for a moment and chased after the spot where Peter had been towed.
With the help of the tracking potion, he could feel the direction of Peter, and he made his way forward, seemingly walking towards the center of a large hollow.
As before, the ground is sloping downward. But instead of being dense, the trees around them are getting thinner, and the trunks are an unhealthy gray, as if they have been eaten by some pest, and are covered with cobwebs.
The view from the ground is even more disturbing, littered with animal remains. Ai Wen saw a lot of white chrysalis, I don't know what was wrapped in them, it should be food captured by the eight-eyed giant spider, and a few of them were shaking violently when he passed by.
Clearly, the creatures inside weren't dead.
Because of the nervousness, Aiwen's palms were covered with sweat. He probably realized what he was going to run into if he kept walking.
He was considering the possibility of giving up Peter Pettigrew directly, with Peter's current injury, he would definitely not be able to escape from the encirclement of the eight-eyed giant spider, and it seemed that there was only a dead end waiting for him. Evan hesitated, reason telling him that he should hurry back.
But Peter Pettigrew's mournful cries were still heard.
He sighed heavily, knowing he couldn't leave Peter Pettigrew alone.
Not to mention, Sirius Black and Professor Lupin still need Peter to clear their grievances, and without seeing Peter Pettigrew himself, with the character of the Minister of Magic, Cornelius Fudge, he will not believe that Black and Professor Lupin are innocent anyway.
Not to mention, there is Lucius Malfoy fanning the flames and plotting on the sidelines. Even with Dumbledore's prestige, they couldn't be said for anything. No matter how great or great Dumbledore was, he couldn't directly convince anyone to confront the Ministry.
So, I had to bring Peter Pettigrew back.
Other than that, with Evan's character, it was impossible for him to watch a person die in front of him and do nothing.
Even if the other party is Peter Pettigrew, even if there is a big danger waiting for him, he will not back down.
Evan walked forward, he was worried about Sirius Black's injury, he didn't know what was going on with Harry and Hermione, and as he was leaving, he seemed to see the Dementors approaching. But the thought of the powerful barrier magic that flew out of the castle reassured Evan at ease.
As long as there is that person, there will be no danger to the few of them.
Despite this, Evan suddenly realized that he had a great responsibility for the development of things tonight to this point.
When it comes to the most evil dark wizards like Peter Pettigrew, he is still not decisive enough.
The correct thing to do would be to knock Peter Pettigrew out and hand him over to Dumbledore, or incapacitate Peter and prevent him from trying to escape, or
Evan lives up to himself, and he has a habit of imagining everyone as if he were like himself.
According to his impression of Peter Pettigrew, in addition to cowardice and stupidity, there should be a trace of unquenched conscience, and this judgment, combined with Peter's tragic end, Evan originally thought that he would give up all resistance and repent to his conscience in the face of absolute facts and strength.
In his opinion, that is the perfect ending of this year's events.
Sirius Black manages to clear his name and get what he deserves, Ron resists the Imperius Curse through his own efforts, and Peter Pettigrew pays the price for his actions and sincerely apologizes to Harry and Black.
However, things didn't go in that direction!
In order to escape, in order not to be caught by the Dementors, Peter Pettigrew actually directly used powerful forbidden magic, not caring at all that himself, Harry, Ron, and Hermione, the four innocent children were in front of him, and they would be hurt at all.
Peter Pettigrew's reaction was completely different from what Evan had imagined.
Evan suddenly realized that he was too naïve.
This is the real wizarding world, not a paper conjecture based on the plot of the original book, and all the characters of the original book are living people.
They will all have their own ideas and will make judgments about the changes in the things around them, rather than continuing to develop according to the original plot
Even Dumbledore, under the brilliance of the greatest white wizard of our time, he has unknown plans, otherwise he would have been tonight
Of all the Death Eaters, Peter was the humblest of all, and even he was so evil and difficult, not to mention the other dark wizards.
Evan sighed again, if he continued to be naïve, he could not be Voldemort's opponent at all.
The idea that I want to change the fate of other people is even more like a fantasy.
It seems that I really need to change!
Aiwen's gaze gradually became firm, although his original intention remained unchanged, but he was determined to use realistic methods to solve real problems. (To be continued.) )
