Professor McGonagall hurried over to Mu Yan, looked at the mountain monster lying unconscious on the ground, and then looked at Mu Yan.

I don't seem to know what to say......

"Professor McGonagall, Professor Snape, Professor Quirrell." Mu Yan bowed to them slightly.

There was no panic or nervousness on his face, and his face was light, as if he had just finished a trivial matter.

Insignificant trifles......

After all, he was the vice president of the house, and Professor McGonagall had never seen any storms and waves, so she quickly adjusted her mood.

"Mr. Mu Yan, could you please explain why you are here and are still being chased by the mountain monsters?" She opened her mouth to show her reproach to Mu Yan.

"That's right, after dinner tonight......"

Professor McGonagall was a fair and somewhat harsh witch, and Mu Yan had already understood this, and had been prepared for her questioning, and immediately recounted the story that she had seen Harry and Ron leave the group, and that she had followed them out of fear of them.

This set of rhetoric is half-true and half-false, but it only slightly conceals some of the true thoughts in his heart, as for how he lured away the mountain monster and how to defeat it, it is not a fake water.

There's nothing to hide, be honest, and maybe you can add a little more points to yourself. Mu Yan thought so.

"Then we're back to the beginning...... Professor McGonagall turned to look at Harry and the others, "why are you guys here?" ”

"Because ......"

"It's all my fault, Professor McGonagall......" Ron was about to repeat the opening sentence when Hermione interrupted.

In the disbelieving eyes of the two, Hermione directly took all the responsibility on herself.

"...... if they hadn't saved me, I wouldn't have died by now!"

Hermione said seriously, and Mu Yan almost believed it when I looked at it with regretful eyes that I had done something wrong.

"That's ......," Professor McGonagall looked at her, "you're so stupid, I thought you'd be sensible!" ”

"I'm disappointed in you, Miss Grant!"

"Gryffindor is going to deduct five points! Because you have a serious lack of judgment! ”

As she spoke, she looked at Harry and Ron again,

"As for you two...... In view of your courage, you are so lucky to be alive until now, without adding points or deducting points! ”

Finally, she turned to look at Mu Yan, her eyes full of emotion.

"...... few freshmen can defeat an adult mountain monster!" After a moment of deliberation, Professor McGonagall said slowly, "Given your courage and wisdom, Ravenclaw plus 20 points." ”

A smile appeared on Mu Yan's face.

"But I hope that the next time something like this happens, you should notify the teacher as soon as possible, instead of waving your wand and directly sending a blasting charm!"

Professor McGonagall added, apparently believing that such a thing was still too dangerous for him as a freshman.

"Of course, Professor McGonagall." Mu Yan replied with a smile.

"Alright, you guys get out of here, the mountain monster will wake up at any moment." Professor McGonagall turned and cast a recovery spell on the stonework, and the large statue quickly stood in the center again.

Mu Yan nodded, and took the lead in the direction of the Ravenclaw lodging area, and Harry and the three hurriedly followed.

……

"Thank you so much this time, Mu Yan!"

Walking to the fork in the accommodation area of the two colleges, Harry said to Mu Yan with some embarrassment.

"Yes, if it weren't for Mu Yan, we would probably all be eaten by the mountain monster!" Ron also said with a bitter face, as if he thought of the scene where he was eaten by the mountain monster one bite at a time, and his whole face changed.

"Thank you......" Hermione just blushed and thanked her, it was still a little difficult for this proud little witch to express her gratitude to Mu Yan, the "great enemy in life".

Mu Yan didn't care about this, patted Harry's shoulder with some emotion, opened his mouth to say something to him, but finally gave up, didn't say anything, shook his head and turned around and walked to the Ravenclaw bedroom.

The three people who were left confused were stunned in place for a long time.

Walking back to the dormitory, Mu Yan did not show a happy look because of the 25-point difference at one time, on the contrary, he was in a bad mood now.

The reason is simple.

Because it hasn't changed for a long time, even Mu Yan subconsciously ignored its existence of the "plot offset" and now it has become a blood-red 5%!

The moment Professor McGonagall asked them to leave, they jumped from 0% to 5%!

Coupled with all the unexpected developments tonight, Mu Yan suddenly realized one thing: he seemed to have stepped into a bottomless quagmire!

In the process of Harry and the others going to save Hermione, when the mountain monster swung the big stick for the second time, Harry couldn't dodge because of the torn ligament of his abdominal muscles......

And Harry is done playing, which naturally means that Mu Yan is finished playing - even the protagonist is dead, what plot offset is there to talk about? The plot is directly reversed, okay!

It is conceivable that if Mu Yan hadn't quietly followed Harry tonight, it was estimated that this world would have ended in a daze!

However, even if he saved Harry, Mu Yan still didn't get any good results, because he defeated the mountain monster, but the plot offset has increased! It went up 5% at once!

In fact, if you think about it carefully, Mu Yan can also figure out the reason for the increase in the offset of the plot.

According to the original plot, this mountain monster attack will not only give the trio's team a prototype, but also allow Harry and Ron to defeat the monsters, which is an extremely glorious honor in the new life!

This deed will give them a certain prestige foundation in the minds of students and pave the way for future development.

But now this honor has been snatched by Mu Yan, and the robbery is clean, and from now on, the legendary first-year freshman who defeated the mountain monster is no longer Harry, but Mu Yan!

And Harry's savior path has grown a little longer.

These things, no matter which one of them, are not good things for Mu Yan.

"It doesn't look like it's going to be so idle in the future!" Mu Yan pulled the quilt and lay quietly on the bed, his eyes a little helpless.

The first is that Harry's protagonist's aura is gone, and a mountain monster used to farm points almost killed him! This dramatic development looks like a gamer who is destined to become the first player to reach full level on a full server, and has barely taken two steps out of the novice village before being almost given seconds by a goblin scurrying out of the roadside......

For this situation, what else can Mu Yan do besides escorting the whole process?

Solve the crisis in advance?

No kidding, if Harry hadn't experienced the mountain monster tonight, the plot offset would have been even higher!

You know, it's not just Harry and his party who are ready to do something big tonight, but Professor Quirrell! If you stop it in advance, not to mention whether you can do it on the open terrain, it is more likely that you will meet Quirrell possessed by Voldemort on the way to find the mountain monster!

Compared with the professors, Mu Yan still has a big gap.

But it is not advisable to let Mu Yan participate in the whole process, advance and retreat with Harry and them, and keep Harry safe to the greatest extent.

Because you also have to consider the plot offset!

Advancing and retreating with Harry, some of the glory of Harry's trio will definitely fall on him, and that kind of thing that looks infinitely beautiful is the deadliest poison for Mu Yan!

Every time he shared a little bit of Harry's trio's exploits, the plot offset would increase a little.

To put it simply, Mu Yan must help Harry and his party get through the difficulties again and again without exposing himself!

Well, after the incident, the clothes are gone, and the merit and fame are hidden. That's probably what it means.

Mu Yan sighed, it was only now that he really saw the sinister nature of this world's mission.

According to Mission 2, at the end of the first semester, Ravenclaw was to win the House Cup.

But Mu Yan thinks about it with his ass and knows that if he really lets Ravenclaw win the Academy Cup, then the plot offset will be properly increased.

But if you don't let Ravenclaw win the championship, the main quest will fail, and your world will end directly!

In comparison, it seems that the only option he has is to give up the plot offset and complete the main story instead, which will at least allow him to stay in this world for a little longer.

And from the perspective of the second main story, a similar situation will occur in the main line in the future, and the rise of the plot offset is almost unstoppable!

In other words, it was only a matter of time before Mu Yan's mission failed!

"In that case, then I shouldn't have any worries!" A coldness flashed in Mu Yan's eyes, "Since there is no way to maintain the plot offset, then I simply don't care about it!" ”

"As long as the main story doesn't fail and Harry doesn't die, then it doesn't matter if I do something that affects the plot!"

He muttered softly, a bold plan popping into his mind......

……

November was a month for Harry, and all the students cheered him on for his brilliant performance at a Quidditch match.

Mu Yan also went to watch the game that day, and before watching the game, he also specially gave Hermione a small paper ball that could burn instantly, in the name of his friend.

He's been getting closer to Harry's trio over time, and Hermione isn't as hostile to him as she used to be...... At least that's what it looks like after class......

The result of such a purposeful gift can be imagined, Hermione, who mistakenly thought that Snape had cast a spell on Harry's broom, threw a paper ball directly onto Snape's robes...... The spewed fire made almost all the audience on stage at that time remember it vividly!

But in the chaos, no one noticed that a few wisps of inconspicuous magic power flew out of the flames, and under Mu Yan's control, they quietly wrapped around Professor Quirrell's robe!

And Professor Quirrell, who was in the midst of being devoured by magic, naturally didn't notice that there were some extra things on his clothes that didn't belong to him!

And so, on December 25th, Christmas crept in with the fluttering of owl wings......
