Chapter 032 Golden Light

"Don't worry!" Catherine held her wand out of the window, and a white light shot out of the tip of her wand, and the gargoyle was covered in a thick layer of white ice, and his movements became very sluggish.

"Catherine, I have to remind you that although today is the first of September, the residual heat of summer has not dropped, not to mention that it is the hottest time of the day." Harry said worriedly, looking out the window at the bright sunlight.

"Harry, I found that not only did you fail to learn the common sense of the wizarding world, but also the common sense of the Muggle world!" Catherine suddenly pulled the car up, nearly ninety degrees vertically over the head of the last gargoyle, while pointing her wand in the direction of the front of the car, silently chanting a spell.

"Pounds!" An explosion sounded in the rear of the car, and the two boys were pressed into their seats by a strong force, and as an even louder explosion sounded in the rear of the car, the car rushed straight into the sky.

"Wow!" As soon as they got used to the force, the two boys turned to the window and saw a huge firework appear at the rear of the car.

"Is this -- thermal expansion and cold contraction?" It was Ron who spoke, which immediately drew Harry and Catherine's surprised glances, "This is also common knowledge in the wizarding world!" The red-haired boy rolled his eyes and said helplessly.

Harry pushed his glasses to hide his embarrassment, and Catherine smiled and turned back, pushing down the height of the car to find a place to land.

"Catherine! We should go after the train! Harry, who had noticed the anomaly, looked around for the train, only to find a black figure suddenly appearing not far away.

"That's right! We should get out of here, who knows what else those people have to do? As soon as Ron finished speaking, he noticed that there was one more person in the carriage.

"Ahh Ghost—" The two boys screamed loudly, and then the silence was silenced by the visitor, and only then did they see who the man was.

"The famous Harry Potter and his good friend Ron Weasley don't think the train is fun enough and want to have an exciting speeding adventure, right?" Snape said in a very soft voice, which made the two boys shiver with cold.

"Professor, please take the two of them back first." Catherine parked the car in a clearing in the forest, opened the door and walked to the trunk, dumped the two boys' pets back into their respective owners' arms, and packed their luggage.

"Stay safe!" Seeing that he really couldn't take the three children and a bunch of luggage with him at once, Snape had to give Catherine a command, and then took the two boys by the collar and led them away with their apparitions.

"Come out! Dobby! As soon as Snape left, Catherine shouted, "I know you're here." ”

"Why did you guess it was Dobby?" Dobby showed himself and walked up behind Catherine nervously, "Why do you know Dobby didn't leave?" ”

"I've seen you panic more than once, and it makes me very suspicious, so I've paid special attention to your mana fluctuations, and the nine and three-quarters platform is obviously your handiwork." Catherine shrunk all her luggage into a box, "As for knowing you're here, it's because I've found that the magic cast on those two nets doesn't work before they fall to the ground. She slipped the box into her left pocket and turned to face Dobby, "Now, please tell me, why are you attacking Harry?" Is it your master's instructions? ”

"Nope! Dobby didn't attack Harry Potter! Dobby is protecting him! Dobby shouted excitedly, and the two gargoyles slowly walked out of the woods.

"Protection?" Catherine sneered, "Let Harry fall from two hundred feet in the air - are you sure it's really protection?" ”

"Of course!" Dobby said categorically, "Dobby must make sure that Harry Potter doesn't return to Hogwarts so that the master and you can't hurt him." ”

"Your master and I—" Catherine frowned slightly, "you mean Voldemort's diary?" ”

"Don't say that name!" Dobby shouted in fear, "You have no idea how terrible he is, the master has no choice but to follow his arrangement, he is going to destroy Hogwarts, and Harry Potter is only in danger of going back there." ”

"Perhaps he does have a terrible aptitude," Catherine explained in a soft voice, "but the journal is no longer of his use, because—"

"You don't understand at all!" Dobby interrupted Catherine with a roar, "You are the same kind of person as your master, you are completely ignorant of means for the sake of so-called interests, and you don't care about human life at all!" I can't let you hurt Harry Potter! Attack! ”

The two gargoyles immediately jumped up from the ground and pounced on Catherine with their teeth and claws, and the red-haired girl calmly pulled her left hand from her pocket, smoothly aimed the revolver in her hand at the gargoyle's chest, and calmly pulled the trigger.

"Pound pound!" After six gunshots, the two gargoyles smashed to the ground, and there was no more movement.

"You now have two options!" Catherine pulled out a box of bullets and slowly loaded them, "Either take the opportunity to attack, and wait to be caught between me and Professor Snape, or leave." ”

The stunned Dobby was dumbfounded for a long time, and when he saw that Catherine was almost finished loading the bullet, he snapped his fingers and disappeared from her in a panic.

Catherine breathed a sigh of relief when Dobby was gone, but calmly took out another box, used the Flying Charm to collect all the gargoyle remains, shrunk them into her pocket, and put them away.

After getting the qiē and putting away the pistol, Catherine had time to observe her wand, because after failing to break through Dobby's blockade, she noticed that it was abnormal, so she could only scare Dobby out of the way, rather than force him to stay.

"Who is it?" When Snape returned, he found traces of the fighting around him.

"To you," Catherine put away her wand and looked up at Snape with a wry smile, "he should be a piece of furniture. ”

"Furniture?" Snape frowned slightly, and then realized what Catherine was referring to, "This can't be!" He shouted in surprise.

"If the furniture of the wizarding world can speak, how can it not think?" Catherine sneered, "What's more, he's not furniture at all. ”

Snape pursed his lips in contemplation for a moment, then suddenly stretched out his left hand, "I'll take you back to Hogwarts first!" ”

"Could you please bring Mr. Weasley over to pick up his car?" Catherine asked, clasping his hand.

“I－will!” Snape's face softened slightly.

“Thank－you!” Catherine smiled and patted the trunk of the car, "Take care of yourself, you know?" ”

The car flashed its taillights, followed by a series of sounds of locking doors and windows.

Snape frowned, but didn't speak, just left with Catherine in her apparition.

"Go ahead, Professor! I'll go in myself. Catherine walked straight through the doors of Hogwarts.

Snape did not object or agree, but simply stood there and watched Catherine's back until she and Harry had joined him, and then he disappeared from the school gates.

"What about Severus?" Dumbledore, who had followed Harry, immediately inquired about Snape's whereabouts.

"I've asked Professor Snape to find Mr. Weasley." Catherine smiled.

"Oh!" Dumbledore blinked, a little puzzled by Catherine's smile, but he didn't understand what was wrong, so he could only ask his own other question first, "Catherine, can you tell me, why did those gargoyles fall directly after being hit by nails?" ”

"Of course!" Catherine smiled brightly, "I just carved 'DMCC' on them." ”

Dumbledore's face instantly turned extremely pale.

"DMCC" is the English abbreviation of "Destruction of Divine Power/Magic Cycle Circle", its inventor is Zeus, the god king of the Greek gods, after the destruction of the Greek gods, the technology was obtained by Judaism, and then through the hands of Judas, who betrayed Jesus, it was introduced to the Holy See, but it has not been taken seriously.

It wasn't until the Holy See and the wizards turned against each other and declared the wizards heretics that they became a real weapon for the Holy See to deal with wizards.

The Holy See summoned a great deal of manpower to streamline this otherwise very large circle to the point where it was small enough to be inscribed on a sword, a spear, or even a small pendant of a cross.

Although the "DMCC" inscribed on the cross was too small, small enough to have a slight impact, it was enough to identify wizards hidden in Muggles.

These crosses were immortalized in the early days of the witch hunt, and thousands of wizards were unaware of their identities and were killed by familiar Muggles in ignorance.

It wasn't until the Hunt organized a death squad to infiltrate the Holy See, destroy all the materials of the "DMCC", and execute all the Holy See personnel who knew the "DMCC", that the huge losses of the wizarding world were alleviated.

When the Reformation led to another split in Christianity, the witch hunt was forced to stop, and in 1689 the wizarding community passed the International Secrecy Act and secretly ordered the destruction of all "DMCC" materials.

Almost all of the families obeyed orders, whether they wanted to or not, except for one family, because they had already done enough for the wizarding world, and no one dared to ask them to do anything again.

So Dumbledore's shock was not that the "DMCC" was in existence, but that Catherine was now able to obtain its information, which meant that her strength exceeded his expectations.

"Catherine, are you ......" Dumbledore's question was interrupted by a flash of light.

Seeing this golden light that the other three had to raise their hands to obscure, Catherine couldn't help but look back curiously.

An unidentified object, about five feet wide, seven feet high, and sixteen feet long, reflecting a dazzling light, "rolled" through the gates of Hogwarts until "it" approached, and the four of them saw that it was actually two golden horses pulling a golden carriage.

"Wow! How much does it cost! Ron couldn't help but exclaim.

"That's not real gold!" Catherine said blandly.

"How do you know?" Harry asked, surprised.

"Wheel print!" Catherine had just seen the real flying carriage in the morning, so she naturally understood the difference, "Although the carriage may be equipped with a magic array of floating charms, gold is not the best carrier of the magic array, of course, it is not excluded that some people have too much money to spend, but if there is only a magic array, there should only be horseshoe prints where the carriage passes, and there will be no wheel prints, so it should be wooden, just coated with a layer of gold paint." ”
