Chapter 117: Aven's Fear
Seeing that his companion had no way to rush over and undo the spell for himself, Greyback, who had fallen to the ground, suddenly let out a piercing howl, and his voice was so loud that the clouds in the sky were scattered by his roar, and a huge full moon appeared in the sky.
In the light of the moon, his body began to change.
His already thick shoulders were visibly arched, black hairs were clearly visible on his face and hands, and his dirty fingers curled into sharp claws.
Crookshank screamed uneasily, and all the fur on its body stood on end.
Evan and Hermione stopped attacking, and they stepped back in horror, looking in disbelief at the man in front of them.
No, monsters to be exact.
Greyback's jaw was noticeably elongated, sharp, sharp teeth popped out, and the black hair on his body became denser and denser, looking exactly like a real wolf.
He rose from the ground, as if he hadn't been under the petrification spell.
Greyback's resistance to magic was already stronger than that of ordinary wizards, but now that he has transformed into a werewolf, his body functions have reached a new level, and with the strength of his flesh alone, he is immune to almost all common low-level spells.
The smell in the air grew stronger, and through the dirty, messy hair on Greyback's body, Evan saw a pair of yellow, crazy eyes, and he smelled a hundred times stronger than before, sweat and blood.
In the bitter cold wind, greedy heat spewed into Greyback's throat.
He raised two dark black claws, craned his neck and howled loudly at the full moon in the sky, letting out a series of terrifying roars.
"Oh my God!" Hermione gasped, looking in horror at Greyback, who had turned into a werewolf.
"Run, Hermione!" shouted Aven, "Run, now!"
Without hesitation, he grabbed Hermione's small hand, turned around and ran.
If he were alone, Evan might try to stay and fight Greyback.
But he couldn't risk Hermione, and if he didn't go, with Hermione's character, he wouldn't leave himself alone anyway.
Facing Greyback, a werewolf, Evan has no chance of winning.
What's more, in addition to him, there is also a dark wizard who is not weak and his strength is eyeing him from the side.
As things stand, fleeing is the wisest option.
"That's enough, idiot!, shut up, are you trying to lure the Aurors and Dementors over?!" the man in the black mask screamed, "Hurry up and bite them, those two little wizards are going to run away!"
Hearing the other party's words, Greyback let out another piercing and terrifying roar in the werewolf state, and he pounced at great speed.
Evan could hear the sound of paws landing behind him, and he and Hermione struggled through the snow.
The two men supported each other, panting heavily, trying to exert all their strength, but the speed was getting slower and slower.
"Damn, shit!" Evan turned, gathering all his mana, wielding his wand and emitting a silvery glow.
It was the most lethal spell he could think of in a hurry, the one he had learned from Tom Riddle last semester.
This spell is similar to Bladeless, but much more powerful.
Like a bolt of lightning across the dim sky, the silver arrow-like spell flew towards Greyback with a dazzling light, and Greyback rushed towards the spell without dodging or dodging. In his werewolf state, he completely lost his sanity, and he had no emotion other than killing, not even pain.
Aven's spell slashed across him, stretching from his chest to his shoulder, creating a long wound.
Greyback took a step back, his skin pouring out as if it had been split by an invisible sword.
A hint of joy just rose in Aiwen's heart, and immediately sank again.
His spell seriously injured Greyback, but it was completely useless. In the next second, the wound healed at a speed visible to the naked eye, leaving only a light red scar, and the wound and the pungent smell of blood further irritated Greyback, and his speed increased sharply.
Evan remembered that he had read a description of werewolves in the Defence Against the Dark Arts textbook, Professor Quentin Trimb's "Dark Forces: A Guide to Self-Defense": As we all know, werewolves have extremely strong physiques, speed, strength, explosiveness and attack power far beyond ordinary people, but the most terrifying and desperate thing is their amazing vitality, and the wounds caused by ordinary spells and weapons to werewolves usually heal completely within one to two seconds.
"No, no, none of us can run away like this. Evan turned his head and shouted at Hermione, "I'll hold him back, run, run!"
"I'm not leaving, Ivan, I'm not leaving!" Tears flowed uncontrollably down Hermione's cheeks, "I'm going to stay and help you, we're going to be fine, let me think about it, I must know, Professor Snape's paper "Methods of Recognizing and Killing Werewolves", I know"
"We don't have time, Hermione!"
Looking at Greyback getting closer and closer, a weak sense of fear rose in Evan's heart, he had never felt this way before, whether it was facing Voldemort, Basilisk, or Dementors in his school days, he had never panicked as he did now.
Not because of his own safety, but because of Hermione beside him.
Aven's heart was broken, he had never hated his weakness so much as he did now, he hated that he couldn't protect Hermione, the lover he wanted to protect.
In the past, he was far superior to young wizards of the same age, read thousands of magic books, mastered dozens of dark magic spells and many forbidden magic theories, these seemingly powerful things, in the face of real power, were completely a joke.
Evan originally thought that he was fearless, even in the face of the most evil dark wizard, even in the face of Voldemort, he could be calm, but now, looking at the werewolf rushing towards him, and feeling Hermione trembling powerlessly behind him, he felt scared for the first time.
He was afraid, if he fell, Evan couldn't imagine what would happen next.
If Hermione is bitten by Greyback, then she will become a werewolf.
After this time, she could only avoid the mainstream society, hide in Tibet, live on the edge and shadow of the wizarding world, rely on stealing and killing to obtain food, endure the white eyes and discrimination of others, and wander alone on the streets.
The thought of such a picture made Evan feel distressed.
No, he can't let this happen, no matter what!
"Aven, let's go there, go to that shop. Hermione's screams interrupted Aven's thoughts, "Help is coming soon, let's go to that house, we have to find a way to stop him." ”
Following Hermione's fingers, Evan saw a shop at the end of the alley with an open door, the house empty, and the clerk inside had escaped before ten seconds.
"That's right, Hermione, let's go there!" Evan decided.
He cast a barrier spell at Greyback, pulling Hermione to stagger forward two steps and rush to the door of the shop.
Evan told Hermione and Crookshank to go in first, then closed the door of the shop and locked it tightly with a wave of his wand.
He quickly turned around and looked at Greyback resolutely.
Even if he didn't have great strength, even if his strength was far weaker than Werewolf Greyback, but when he thought of Hermione behind him, thinking of the responsibility on his shoulders, courage suddenly rose in the depths of Aven's heart, and he was fearless.
Since we must fight, let's fight!!
