Chapter 413: Train Tragedy
『Chapter error, click here to report』
With the exception of some magical worlds in the alternate world, most of the magical societies are very closed, or a little arrogant, and do not come into contact with ordinary people and look down on them. So much so that human society has used computers, and wizards are still using paper records. Don't tell me that spells are safer than technological equipment, the secrecy measures on electronic devices are no worse than spells, and even many are stronger, at least black and white have never heard of any mage who is so good that he can directly turn the data in the hard drive into a visual language with a spell.
Of course, there are also examples of keeping up with the times on the magic side, such as the Supreme Mage's party. I installed an ifi in the room, too. It's just that so far, no player has been exposed to a plot about the Supreme Mage.
The wizarding world in the Harry Potter series is a typical example of backwardness, and compared with modern society, the entire wizarding world embodies a "dirty and messy" style. If it weren't for the occasional passenger plane passing by from the sky, Hei Bai would really think that he had arrived in some backward and poor country in Africa.
"How's it going? Did you find any characters on the train?" asked Black and White holding Gao Mai, who jumped on his lap.
Gao Wu lay down comfortably and whispered: "No, I think the protagonists of the plot should be protected by Dumbledore's people now!"
Black and white nodded, and looked around the aisle of the train, and there were probably less than twenty passengers on the entire train, just like he had chartered the car.
This has to be traced back to three days ago, when Black and White didn't catch the train because of the old mage's problem, thinking it was late, but who knew that Anubis said that Hogwarts didn't start school.
The reason for this was that the train had indeed departed, but halfway through the journey, a large group of Dementors intercepted the train, forcing the entire train to stop for inspection.
The Dementor is a magical creature, humanoid in shape, wearing a largely black tattered cloak, with a white body that looks like it has been soaked in water, and has scabbed palms, and its whole body is rotten and ugly. Everywhere it passes, it is sucked out of pleasure, and at the same time it reminds creatures of terrible things, they have no features under their hoods but a mouth that will suck people's souls if they come close.
Judging from Black and White's past experience fighting with five-color emissaries such as Lafliz and Blue Dali, it is likely that this is also a monster that uses emotional power as a means of attack.
According to the original books, the monster first appeared as an Azkaban prison guard and later became Voldemort's henchmen. This time, since there is a plot to intercept the train for inspection, then he has reason to believe that this should be the prisoner plot of Azkaban, the third Harry Potter!
Well, there was nothing new in the first place, after all, there are so many tasks that can be done nowadays, and no player will keep an eye on what grade Harry Potter is, because if you don't have a wizard status, no one will take you to play.
According to the original book, even if there is a Dementor inspection, it will not delay the start of Hogwarts, but that is the original plot, in the universe OL, how can the pit cargo system not make the plot unrecognizable?
The first stat that the system adds to Dementors is that they attack the player!
Yes, the monster of the Dementor is really a bit unscrupulous, not only entering the carriage to search when stopping the train, but also sucking the happiness of many students away from the ability to rein in the train, and wanting to do something to Harry Potter. That's it, after all, it's also within the scope of the original work.
But the players can't take it anymore!
As the way to enter Hogwarts, he didn't expect that he greatly underestimated the strength of the players, and in just ten days, nearly 100 players really found a way to get smaller before the entrance ceremony and successfully got the admission letter.
In other words, in addition to the unfortunate black and white, there were nearly 100 players on that train!
When a Dementor passes by the player, the ability to absorb happy emotions not only reminds you of some painful experience, but also translates directly into the damage the player has taken in the past, causing them to attack the player again!
This is very scary, there are all kinds of plots in the big universe OL, and some players have been shot, and then when the Dementor came over, several bullet holes appeared directly on the body, and they hung up before they even had time to be treated. Some players are even worse, having participated in the first monster invasion mission and been trampled to death by monsters, and then when the Dementors approached, they turned into a ball of meat sauce and blood sprinkled on the spot!
Who can bear this?
At first, the players wanted to endure it and pass, but then the players found that these re-appeared injuries were the same damage that made them hang up in the first place, and although the players were constantly improving and their physical fitness was strengthening, no one was sure if the original attack would be able to kill them again.
So when the Dementors killed almost half of the players, the conflict broke out completely. The players couldn't take it anymore and started fighting!
Anyone who has read a book or watched a movie knows that the best way to deal with Dementors is the Patronus Charm, but players who haven't formally learned it won't do so. However, players who can be offered admission to Hogwarts have more or less mystical abilities.
In this way, fireballs, ice swords, wind blades, energy jets and other skills are like a storm towards the Dementors, most of these players are mutants with mental abilities, and some are Inhumans who have just started. Although it is not very restrained against the Dementors, the attack power is also real.
However, some players are unlucky, in order to be able to get a Hogwarts notice, they will mainly focus their energy on finding ways to become smaller, and as for the skills related to mental power, they will learn some garbage skills such as meditation or small fireballs perfunctorily. It would be naïve to rely on this skill to fight the Dementors.
So in the middle of the battle, the player group was reduced again, and finally when I heard that the teachers who accompanied the car found out that something was wrong, there were only a dozen players left!
Although the dead players can be resurrected, they will not be notified if they miss the start date, and in the eyes of the NPCs, the children are dead, which means that the players have completely lost the opportunity to enter Hogwarts. If you want to come back in, you can only work hard next year!
The effect of this incident was that Dumbledore was furious, went to the Ministry of Magic in person, and then ignored the obstruction of the officials, and a Patronus curse blew up hundreds of Dementors, scaring the entire group of Dementors into not daring to come within a hundred miles of Hogwarts.
But the tragedy has already happened, and the player group is okay, after all, they are all orphans with no background power in the eyes of the NPCs. But there are still many children of magical families on the train, and some of these families are even Hogwarts financiers, how can they send the outstanding children of their own families to study in such a dangerous place!
Even if you don't talk about these financiers, those ordinary families have almost made the same choice, you must know that it is a good thing that our children have a talent for magic, but it is too much to risk their lives to learn magic! If you want to be a good person, you don't have to study magic, isn't it good for us to send our children to Ivy League schools? In the future, learning scientific knowledge and making steel suits is much more fashionable than you old men who can only wield magic wands.
Because of this, after learning of the train tragedy, most parents picked up their children, so that for the first time since the establishment of Hogwarts, there was a major crisis that no students attended the entrance ceremony!
Hogwarts has a very long history, but it has always been a zero-fee policy for a long time. Therefore, all day-to-day expenses are either self-sufficient or rely on the sponsorship of the financiers or shareholders. Now that the owners are no longer playing, what about Hogwarts?
In the end, Dumbledore had no choice but to send all the teachers to visit the children's homes one by one, apologize for the children's previous shocks, and then express his determination to protect the children, and then plead for forgiveness and hope that the children would continue to go back to school.
I have to say that Dumbledore's weight in the wizarding world is very heavy, and this time he pulled down his old face and brought the teachers and professors to apologize in person, which also caused quite a stir. In response, the magical families trusted the children and agreed to return to school.
But the really hard thing is the Muggle kids, these parents don't know what status you old man is, and want my kids to risk their lives to wave their wands? To hell with it!
So an embarrassing scene appeared, Dumbledore and other professors were coaxed out by parents with trolls more than once, and this scene was even discovered by some passing players and put on the Internet.
It's just that Hei Bai and the others have been busy calculating the old mage for the past two days, so they haven't paid attention to this matter. After being reminded by Anubis, he finally understood the cause and effect.
So this time, Black and White got back on the train unhurriedly, and in his estimation, maybe when he arrived at Hogwarts, Dumbledore was still having a headache about how to persuade those students to come back!
"I'm sorry, can I come in?"
Just when Hei Bai was in a daze, a very clear and immature voice came from the doorway. There seems to be a bit of impurity in this voice, which reminds Black and White of himself when he was in the original voice change period. I still remember that when I was in the period of voice change, the school actually practiced the chorus in order to celebrate the National Day. At that time, he was still a good boy who didn't know how to be lazy, so during the practice of singing, he shouted out his voice badly, so that now although he is not difficult to listen to, he lacks a bit of magnetism.
This is a girl about thirteen or fourteen years old, with long wavy brown hair, bright brown eyes, and a full of youthful breath. The long wizard's robes obscured her figure, making it impossible to distinguish between black and white, and at her feet was a Persian long-haired cat with the same brown hair, well, quite like his owner.
The girl is very cute, and she can be seen to be a beautiful embryo. However, Hei Bai didn't have the idea of flirting with the underage girl, and originally wanted to subconsciously invite her in to sit down, but after a pause, he asked, "There are so many carriages here, why did you come to me?"
The girl looked back to the other side a little embarrassed, "A few student pets over there are rats, so ......"
Black and white looked at the big cat at her feet and smiled, "Please sit down!"
"Thank you!" the girl put her luggage aside, sat casually across from black and white, and stretched out her hand, "Hello, I'm Hermione Granger, just call me Hermione." ”
Hei Bai was not surprised, he stretched out his hand and shook it and smiled: "Hei Bai, it's a freshman, you should already be in the third grade!"
Hermione laughed, "yes, you should call me Senior Sister!
Black and white looked at the other party's excited appearance and laughed: "How do you know that I didn't know about the existence of magic before?"
Hermione continued: "The previous train tragedy made the children of the magical family not trust Hogwarts very much, so even if they let the children come to school, they will use their own methods, and only the children of Muggle families will come to school as express again." ”
Hei Bai nodded when he heard this, "Well, I was really shocked at the time, my friends almost stewed the owl that delivered the letter, and that broken bird even asked me for money!"
Hermione leaned back and smiled when she heard this, and said with a black and white smile: "The tragedy last time didn't seem to affect you, I heard that Dumbledore is still visiting their homes one by one, why? You came back to school so soon, and your parents didn't object?"
Hermione smiled helplessly when she heard this, "I've been studying for two years, I don't want to give up halfway, and my friends need my help too." Then as if he remembered something, he smiled knowingly, "Those two guys are reckless and willful, if they don't have me to pull them, I'm afraid they will cause a lot of trouble!"
Nodding in black and white, to be honest, compared to the useless Ron and Harry Potter with the protagonist's aura exploding, this girl is the normal way for ordinary people to learn. Black and white have never understood why such a good girl would choose Ron's idiot. However, I heard that this is related to the hierarchical concept of the British, the difference between nobles and commoners, or the discrimination between blood and race, etc., anyway, black and white are not British, and they don't understand the problem.
Anyway, in reality, there is no such thing as a bloodline aristocracy in the flower planter, since the time when Chen Sheng and Wu Guang princes and princes will have Xiang Ning, the replacement of dynasties has eliminated the so-called nobles. People may fear the power of those in power, but they will never think that who is born noble, at best, who is born rich!
"Tell me about your previous two years of study, is there anything interesting about it?" asked Hei Bai with a smile, it is true that he is here to study, but it would be good if he could complete the task by the way, and maybe he could get some unexpected rewards.
Hermione's usual circle of friends is not very large, but she really wants to have more friends, so she began to chat with Black and White with great interest.
Time passed slowly, and there was no generation gap between Black and White and Hermione, but there was a problem with the communication between Gao Wu and Crookshan, that is, the big cat, after all, there was really not much language communication between a person who looked like a cat and a real cat.
But the embarrassment between the two cats soon ceased, for after a violent tremor, the whole train stopped!
"Hey, no! Could it be that the Dementors are here again?" Hermione's smile instantly stiffened, apparently the last experience had cast a big psychological shadow on her.
Hei Bai frowned slightly, and then looked out the window, the clear sky gradually darkened, and frost slowly crawled all over the car window, and when he looked up slightly, he could see a cloak monster floating in the air.
"Did they say they didn't dare approach Hogwarts again?"
Hermione smiled wryly, "It's a long way from Hogwarts!"
Black and White was stunned for a moment, crying and laughing, "How dare these Dementors play with words, and they are not allowed to intercept the train if they get close to Hogwarts?"
Hermione ignored the black and white teasing, her face was full of worry and she had already drawn her wand, and said in a childish trill, "You hide in the carriage and don't come out, I went home after last time and read a book about the Patronus Charm, it should work." As he spoke, the wand in his hand began to flicker white from time to time.
Black and white looked at the wand with interest, I heard that the Patronus Charm is difficult, this is worthy of being a scholar, and I want to try it after watching it for two days when I go home. Thinking about it, he also took out his wand, and the miserable white bone wand attracted Hermione's attention as soon as he took it out.
"Huh, what is your wand made of?"
Black and white looked down at the panel, the Death Dragonbone Staff: Crafted from the phalanges of a three-headed golden dragon, it is blessed by the law of death of Anubis, the god of death, and doubles its power when using attack spells, and the more deaths it causes, the more powerful it becomes.
PS: As long as you don't use it to stab people, it still looks like an orthodox mage!
This is a wand strengthened by Anubis, and it is the reward that Anubis promised, but I have to say that the system still understands us, at least when Black and White first got it, he did subconsciously use it as a dagger. But then I think about it, after all, we are not muscular melee mages, and it is too wicked to poke people with a wand.
Black and White didn't answer Hermione's words, but pointed outside, "They're coming!"
Hermione was stunned and saw a Dementor lying on the car window staring at Hermione, although his whole body could not pass, but the ability to absorb happiness would not be blocked, Hermione fell down as soon as her body went limp, and the light of the wand on the ground gradually extinguished.
Black and White reached out to grab Hermione and pull her back into the carriage, while he raised his wand and poked it towards the window, pop, the glass shattered, and the sharp part of the tip of the bone wand stabbed directly into the Dementor's face, Black and White only felt like he had stabbed into a ripe watermelon, and then followed by a little heat......
Hei Bai shook his head with a wry smile, this feeling was too familiar to him, or rather impressive! When he was on the mission of the Assassin League, he had experienced this feeling, this was clearly the feeling when he was shrouded in nuclear radiation!
"No wonder the players are starting to resist, who can stand this!" Black and White muttered as he withdrew his wand as the Dementors outside the window turned to dust without even making a sound.
The heat on his body disappeared, and Hei Bai touched his bone staff, and it seemed that a trace of black gas had just penetrated into the bone staff.
Woo!
Perhaps it was the death of their companion that the rest of the Dementors rushed towards it like sharks that smelled fish.
Pouting in black and white, it seems that it is really a sweetness to kill players, or is it another test set by the system for players?
Whatever it was, Black and White felt that it was necessary for him to make the Dementors understand who he should be arrogant and who he should be intimidated with!
Bang! The iron sheet outside the train was knocked out of a large hole by black and white, and one of its jumps landed outdoors, and when he looked up, the Dementors in the sky turned around and shot at him.
Black and white snorted coldly and held the bone staff upside down, this can't be blamed on him, now he can't use any spells, he can only use it as a dagger. It's just that before he could do it, Hei Bai paused again, because he found that there seemed to be a lot of things on his body that could deal with Dementors!
A Dementor stretched out its claws to scratch him, only to be pinned to the ground by a catapulted spear. Black and white immediately followed the bone rod inserted, and the law of death infected the little guy and killed the little guy directly.
Another Dementor rushed at him, and the Dragon's Pattern slapped it back, and then the Dementor wailed. It seems that this thing also knows that it hurts!
Still one came over, black and white took out the vanguard of justice is a dart over, bang, boom, the dementor turned to ashes in the scream, and a ray of golden light also flashed from the vanguard of justice.
Look at it! This life is full of surprises, originally with the difference between black and white facing the enemy, the vanguard of justice has gradually been unable to meet the needs, who knows that after encountering these dementors, the vanguard of justice will judge it as an evil creature, and the righteous faith value in the panel is off the charts!
However, these Dementors themselves are still fragile creatures, and the goods that can be killed by this bullet are simply a food delivery in front of the vanguard of justice! The most important thing is that the attribute of the bone staff is that the more deaths it causes, the stronger its strength becomes, but it does not say that it has to be the death caused by the bone staff itself. In other words, the Dementors killed by the Vanguard of Justice will also increase the power of the Bone Staff.
This is very comfortable, you must know that black and white relied on marksmanship to eat at the beginning!
Bang bang bang!
On the empty and dim grassland, a series of flashes and explosions were heard far away, and the anxiety on the train gradually disappeared, and some curious and daring students even poked their heads out of the window. Then, they saw a picture that they will never forget!
A child of their age, surrounded by Dementors, swayed from side to side like a ballet dancer stepping on the black and white keys, playing a powerful movement along with the graceful dance.
He held his wand in his left hand and his gun in his right, and bullets with golden brilliance erupted from the muzzle, disgusting the dementors in the crowd of dust, and the wand was constantly wrapped around the black air currents.
Half light and half dark, like an aggregate of angels and demons, at this moment, technology and magic seem to be perfectly integrated!
"Mom, can you buy me a gun?" a bear child looked at black and white with bright eyes, then took out his mobile phone and dialed a number.
There was silence on the other side of the phone, and then there was a mighty roar, "Come back to me and do the questions honestly!" Hogwarts, Dumbledore, am I pretty!"
