Chapter 60: Malfoy's Ambition
Harry was prostrate under the thick roots, he hoped that when the black dragon hovered over the Forbidden Forest, he would not be able to find the three of them through the dense canopy, and Yakov was not far away, Harry hoped that the professors could spot the dragon above the Forbidden Forest earlier, and also hoped that Yakov could lead the dragon over, although this was a bit selfish, but Yakov and the dragon were more terrifying, it was difficult to say.
The trio held their breath as they heard the figure of a broken branch overhead, and a powerful, athletic behemoth body snapped a branch and landed nearby.
As it moved, the rustle of fallen leaves was incessant, such a large creature, it inevitably made noises when it moved, the trembling caused by the heavy body on the ground seemed to be getting closer and closer, the trio clinging to the damp dirt, trying to hide their bodies in the depression, Ron's heart beating wildly, hearing the sound of getting closer, they almost suffocated.
"Little Dragon Dragon!" Yakov's scream sounded in the distance: "It's there...... Don't run! Little Dragon Dragon! ”
The sound of the black dragon approaching the trio froze abruptly, and then quickly moved away, and the sound of dense breaking branches and the air explosion of dragon wings flapping overhead gradually moved away in the direction of Yakov.
"Thank goodness!" Ron couldn't help but exclaim, "That dragon has finally been lured away!" ”
Harry thought the same way about him, he patted the dirt off his body, and said to Hermione, "There is a black dragon in the Forbidden Forest, you must tell the professor about this, and I will go to Hagrid...... At the very least, get those Durmstrang students out of the way. ”
Ron stepped out of the protected area of the tree root with one foot, and hesitated, "It's hard to say if they need us to save them!" A wizard who can beat a werewolf like that, and when they join forces, they may not be afraid of a dragon. At least for wizards, werewolves are no easier to deal with than dragons. Are we going to protect that dragon, or are we going to protect Durmstrang from that group of lunatics? ”
"That's no ordinary dragon!" Hermione retorted, "Don't you feel it yet?" As soon as we saw the dragon, we completely lost the courage to resist...... It certainly wasn't your average dragon, it could be ...... Gurlogne! ”
"Ancient Dragon?" Ron scratched his head, dazed.
Hermione explained, "Yes, it is mentioned in some magic books that there are some differences between ancient dragons and modern dragons, just like ancient wizards, ancient dragons are a little more intelligent, they have humanoid intelligence and unique magic like centaurs and fishmen, and not like modern dragons, just some larger beasts. ”
"Ancient dragons used to be like goblins and had their own magic system."
"One of the characteristics that distinguishes ancient dragons from modern dragons mentioned in the book is the term 'dragon power', which is said to have a unique spiritual coercion over the creatures it hunts."
"Got it! Miss Jack-of-all-trades! Ron muttered, he turned around and climbed out of the roots, Harry followed closely, he lowered his head to find a place to climb, and accidentally bumped into Ron in front of him, Harry was about to ask Ron why he was still in the way, as soon as he looked up, he saw a pair of silver-white eyes with a bit of sarcasm, staring at them.
It was a pair of white-gold pupils, and Harry believed what Hermione had said before, and those pupils exuded a vivid spirituality that was no less than human.
So much so that the trio could see that the black dragon was looking at them with a sneer, his eyes were full of contempt and ridicule, and the black dragon had an indescribable sense of oppression, like a blade, cold and bloodthirsty, making people's hands and feet numb, sour and weak, the black dragon was not like a bloodthirsty beast, but with calmness, and even a little proud feeling of superiority.
Harry knew it so well that he could even read it in the black dragon's gaze - you stupid, lowly mortals.
Harry quietly clenched his wand, but before he could make a move, he was knocked out by a force field from the black dragon's mouth, and Harry was very familiar with the feeling: "Get out your weapon!" He was horrified.
A dragon that uses magic.
The dragon stepped out of its front paws, and Ron pulled out his wand to stop it, but before the old wand could be raised, it was broken by a strange magic that surrounded the black dragon's body. The black dragon grabbed Harry and flapped his wings into the air, leaving Hermione screaming in despair on the ground, and Ron was slammed off by the black dragon's wings and crashed into a tree, apparently with at least two broken ribs.
The black dragon tugged Harry tightly, making him feel a little difficult to breathe, and his lungs were burning with pain, and he saw the black dragon roaring proudly, wantonly, and when he looked down at Harry in his hand, he showed that kind of look again—disdainful, clear, and even a little relaxed, like something that had been entangled for a long time suddenly loosened.
The black dragon flew towards the unicorn's dead body, and Harry was in the sky, his eyes blurred uncontrollably as the cold wind poured into his mouth, and he tried his best to keep his head down, refusing to let his glasses slip off.
Then, I felt a slight shock in my body, and as the black dragon landed near the unicorn's corpse,
There was a short, fat, obscene wizard who was biting the throat of a unicorn and trying to squeeze the last drop of blood, when the black dragon threw Harry to the ground and suddenly said in a human voice, "Harry Potter, the prophesied savior...... Actually, that's not it! ”
The strange man saw the black dragon and hurried to flee, but he soon fell not far away with a wail, and shouted, "Master, I am wrong master! Please...... No! "Ahh He screamed, and his face suddenly turned yellow, as if he was ten years old.
But the black dragon didn't even have the heart to look at him, it stared at Harry Potter, and whispered: "I used to be confused by the aura on you, the savior's aura, it was so dazzling that I forgot the real you under the halo - a weak, vulnerable mortal body, you are one of the two shadows in my heart, and when I opened my mouth to invite you to be my friend, you rejected me." ”
"For the sake of a Weasley friendship, refused...... I! ”
The black dragon roared angrily, "No one has ever rejected me! You...... Dare to be the first! ”
Harry was incredulous, and he was shocked, "Are you Malfoy?" ”
"I'm Darka (Dragon)!" The black dragon sneered.
"Just because you're the 'savior'? I was so obsessed with it until I realized that I had been influenced by the mudbloods—that I should have made the whole world proud of my friendship, and that it would be a great honor for them to kiss my toes, rather than dwell on the fragile, foamy friendship of a savior. ”
"I will be the King of Wizards!"
The black dragon slowly turned his head and looked at the pudgy and fat wizard twitching behind him, its figure slowly became smaller, and the black scales twisted into a huge shadow, and in the middle of the shadow suddenly came a young man in a black robe with long white hair - it was Malfoy. He looked at Peter Pettigrew who had fallen in the dust and whispered.
"There's a second shadow to address...... I used to fear and fear him, my beloved father, who had no dignity under his feet, they worshipped him as king, they honored him as a god, I thought I feared him, but then I learned that I had no respect for him, and all the while, I was only afraid of his cruelty, his cruelty, his cruelty, and his strength. ”
"I imitate him, and my family fears him...... Until, I saw through his weakness and stupidity, madness and cowardice...... He is not worthy of king! ”
Peter Pettigrew's body suddenly flipped over, and a pale, dead-like face appeared on the back of his head, and the face suddenly exclaimed, "Who gave you this courage...... Little Malfoy? Is it your cowardly father who trembles at my feet? ”
"Shut up!" Malfoy raised his hand and shot a blue light.
The spell struck Pettigrew, causing him to tremble violently, and Voldemort's soul creaked as if it had been soaked in sulfuric acid, his face was blurred with corroded flesh, and Voldemort's soul wailed in pain.
"The Black Book of the Dead!" Voldemort screamed, "You stole its power, now...... You can take advantage of my weakness to hurt me, but when I do return, there will be no place for you to die. ”
"Death is my domain...... You want to come back, have you asked me if you did? Malfoy snapped, and with a wave of his wand, Voldemort's soul fragments suddenly burst into flames, and the flames of Hades scorched his soul, and Harry suddenly understood when he heard the 'Black Book of the Dead', he had always had suspicions, but at this moment it was finally certain - another magic book was indeed in Malfoy's hand.
"Today, I will completely settle everything in the past." Malfoy said quietly: "The savior, Voldemort, will be a thing of the past." ”
Harry took a step back, but Malfoy laughed, and he said, "I'm not going to kill you, Harry. You don't understand that you have never been my enemy, my glory and shame have nothing to do with you, and what really hurt me is the fate that has been inflicted on you! Savior...... Hehe...... A mere enemy of Voldemort deserves to be a savior? ”
"I will bury Voldemort and imprison him forever in Hades, where he will be tortured like hell."
"I will bury your fate, Harry Potter...... You will just be a boy who will not die, and the prophecy of the savior will become a joke, and that is my real purpose. Malfoy had the book Harry had seen in his closet, the black metal cover, the Book of the Dead had been opened, and Voldemort howled, turning into a cloud of black smoke and about to leap into the sky.
But he was targeted by the "Black Book of the Dead", Harry watched Voldemort's soul wail, and was pulled into the pages of the book without resistance, Peter Pettigrew was terrified, and when he was terrified, he turned into a mouse and fled.
