Chapter 32: The Midnight Duel
Seeing Hermione's frightened and angry expression, Ron said a few more words: "Only real wizards have this ability. You and Malfoy are going to fight each other at most. After all, neither of you knows anything about real witchcraft that can kill, and the most likely thing is that you drop your wand and fight each other with your fists. ”
"Don't get up at night and walk around the school, if you get caught, think about how many points Gryffindor will be deducted for you, you have to be responsible for it, you are so selfish!" Hermione calmed down a little after hearing this, but still felt very angry.
"It's none of your business either way. Harry replied.
"Goodbye. Ron replied.
Hermione walked away angrily, and with Seamus's mediation, the relationship between Hermione and the two of them improved slightly, but it was still not satisfactory.
After all, boys at this age are far less sharp than girls, and Harry and Ron only felt that every word Hermione said was like a mockery, and they couldn't stand this situation at all.
If it weren't for Seamus's constant efforts to reconcile their relationship, perhaps the conflict would have erupted earlier.
Seeing Hermione leaving, Seamus hurriedly chased after them, and said to them before leaving, "Remember to take me with you when you go out at night." ”
Seamus quickly chased after Hermione, "Let's go to dinner, do you have any arrangements for the evening, if not, can you go to a place with me, I want to practice spells." ”
Seamus didn't try to persuade Hermione to change her mind, because he knew it was futile and that no amount of persuasion would be in vain.
As for Harry, it was even more unlikely, for Malfoy was the only person he had seen growing up hating more than the Dursleys. Not to mention the boy's self-esteem, even if he knew that Malfoy was deliberately playing tricks on him, after agreeing to the agreement, he would never regret it.
Maybe this is not to hit the south wall and not look back, to be honest, in fact, not only them, all Gryffindor students, almost all have a strong stubbornness.
All of Gryffindor's students, even himself, were people who didn't die until the heart of the Yellow River didn't die, and it was very difficult to change what he had decided.
When it was half past eleven, Seamus was a little dazed and was woken up by Harry and Ron, who had come in the dark, and the other roommate, Dean, had slept so hard as soon as he came back that he could only hear a snoring sound.
"Hey, Seamus, wake up, we're leaving. Ron said in a low voice.
He still hoped that Seamus would follow him, after all, Seamus was so powerful yesterday afternoon that he still remembered the feat of toppling all the Slytherin students by himself. With such a golden thigh present, no matter what happens tonight, there is no need to worry.
Seamus quickly put on his clothes, picked up his wand, and crept out of the dorm room, down the stairs to the common room. There was still some unburned charcoal fire in the fireplace, and the shadows of all objects were stretched out in the faint red light.
As they walked to the exit, a voice suddenly sounded from behind the chair, "Seamus, I didn't expect you to do something like this." ”
With a "pop", someone lit a lamp, and Hermione sat in her chair, frowning at them in her pajamas.
Harry, who had already annoyed Hermione, was even more so now, and walked towards the passage without saying a word.
Hermione stared at Seamus and didn't say a word, and in order to avoid the awkward atmosphere from continuing, Seamus said to him, "Let's go, let's go and see together, we can't really let the two of them have an accident." ”
After saying that, he climbed out of the passageway, and Hermione followed angrily, and kept saying, "Have you taken Gryffindor's honor into account, I don't want the extra points I got from Professor McGonagall to be deducted like this, and then let the Slytherin gang win." ”
She wanted to keep talking, but at this point, Seamus made a soft gesture to her to stop talking.
Otherwise, they may not even get to the prize showroom, but they will be discovered and caught by Filch, and a large amount of points will be deducted.
But in fact, Seamus came out this time, mainly to take a look at the three-headed dog next to the corridor on the 4th floor. Get an intuitive look at the magical creatures that can compete with the fire dragon.
The three-headed dog not only has the same combat power as the fire dragon, but also has the same weight and size, but because the fire dragon has a long tail, it will appear slightly larger than the three-headed dog.
And it's best to know how strong the three-headed dog is and how fast it is, and understand the gap between yourself and those adult wizards.
Although it usually takes several adult wizards to work together to subdue a dragon, this is mainly due to the extremely high magic resistance of magical creatures, which makes the effect of wizards' spells greatly reduced. In terms of combat effectiveness alone, the two should be almost the same.
As you once understood, whether it is a novel or a movie, ordinary adult wizards are always regarded as a combat unit, but sometimes they seem to be very strong and can compete with a fire dragon, and sometimes they are mediocre, and any young wizard with good talent can match them at the age of thirteen or fourteen.
This is the best opportunity to understand the gap between them, because this time it is basically safe. Not only was the three-headed dog restrained, but Dumbledore would never sit idly by and watch his students put themselves in danger.
Of course, Seamus doesn't have any illusions that he can match your three-headed dog, you know, even Snape has been injured under the mouth of the three-headed dog.
Even if there are reasons for negligence, it cannot be denied that the three-headed dog is powerful, and there is no professor at Hogwarts who is not a top master, and Snape is the best among them.
As they advanced, they slowly came to the prize showroom, where there was silence, the silver-white moonlight shone in through the window, and the trophies and medals in the glass case were clearly visible.
But Malfoy wasn't in it at all, and in order to prevent Malfoy from suddenly jumping out and making a move, Harry pulled out his wand and looked around carefully.
However, as time passed, Malfoy did not show up at all, and Ron lowered his voice and said with some indignation: "This coward, he must not dare to come." ”
At this moment, a voice slowly approached from a distance: "Give me a good sniff, they may be hiding in a corner." ”
It was Filch's voice, Harry and they were terrified, and Seamus knew that this would be the outcome, and hurriedly beckoned them to walk towards the door.
"Come with me. Simosa ran on his legs, crossing the corridors and escaping Filch's tracking.
But at this moment, Ron's robes hung on the armor on both sides of the corridor, and he couldn't stop the car at once, and the robes were torn, but the armor also fell down, making a loud "bang".
The noise was loud enough to wake up the entire castle!
