Chapter 23: Trolls
Benjamin and Frank heard a scream, and it was the screams of a girl. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The two looked at each other and said in unison, "That's Hermione!"
Now that there is a scream, there is a good chance that Hermione has already bumped into the troll.
Following the source of the sound, Benjamin and Frank came to the door of a women's restroom.
The whole place was filled with a disgusting smell of smelly socks and toilets.
"It smells terrible!" Benjamin said with difficulty, covering his nose with his hands.
Frank nodded awkwardly and pushed open the door to the restroom.
Then they all gasped in unison.
It was a horrible sight. It was twelve feet tall, its skin dull and gray as granite, and its massive, dumb body resembled a huge pile of mud with a small head like a cocoa bean. Its short legs are as thick as tree stumps, and underneath are flat, thick, calloused feet. The smell emanating from it was disgusting. It holds a thick wooden stick in its hand, which is dragged on the ground due to its long arms.
In addition to the trolls, there were three children in the toilet.
Hermione was sitting on the ground crying, and Harry and Ron raised their wands, as if to have a man-to-man duel with the trolls.
"Benjamin!" Frank suddenly exclaimed, and the troll seemed to hear his cry and turned the ugly head around.
Frank held his breath for a moment, and he seemed to realize what a mistake he had made.
"Idiot!" Benjamin whispered, and if it was only Frank here, he wouldn't care about exposing himself.
But Ron, and the Savior. He could already imagine what kind of thrilling adventure story they would come up with.
However, the troll apparently didn't intend to give Benjamin time to think, so he raised the stick in his hand and slammed it down in Benjamin's direction.
"Oh my God!" Harry yelled, he had to find a way to help this Slytherin! Damn, he was going to help a Slytherin!
Benjamin didn't intend to give Harry a chance to feel guilty, he waved his wand and pronounced the incantation calmly and clearly:
"Yuga Dim Leviosa"!
Hermione's eyes widened, she didn't expect the spell to be so powerful, a huge giant monster actually flew into the air and fell hard.
The moment he landed on the ground, Benjamin felt the ground shake beneath his feet, stirring up a cloud of dust.
The troll moved again on the ground, and then fainted completely.
"Benjamin, you did it, you did it! You're awesome!" said Frank excitedly, his back now completely wet with sweat, and for a moment he thought he was going to die.
Of course he's a zombie now and doesn't die that easily, but Benjamin will die because of him. Frank felt like he was going to feel guilty for the rest of his life.
Thankfully, Benjamin fought off the trolls.
"You're quite clever, I mean, you came up with the idea to use that spell. Harry and Ron said with rare sincerity after collecting their little emotions.
However, Benjamin did not intend to approach the Savior, especially after learning most of the Slytherin family, the complicated relationship between Voldemort and Harry Potter.
It's a big question of taking sides.
"If you're all right, I'll go. Benjamin glanced at Frank and turned to leave.
Although Benjamin's heart is very much to stay, and then take the blood of the trolls.
"Wait!" Hermione called out to Benjamin.
"What's the matter, Miss Granger?" said Benjamin, as gentlemanly as he could, keeping his eyes from the troll.
"Oh, I mean, thank you! Thank you for saving me! And Harry, and Ron. If it weren't for you...... I ......" Hermione looked like she was going to cry again.
"What's going on here!"
However, before Harry and Ron could stir up a conversation with Hermione, Professor McGonagall's voice came from behind the door.
Benjamin shrugged helplessly, he had known that such a big movement would attract the professor.
"Oh my God, trolls, how did you do that! and Miss Granger, why are you here!" Professor McGonagall looked worried and angry.
From behind her, another greasy head poked out, no doubt Professor Snape.
Behind Professor Snape was Professor Quirrell, who had woken up for some reason.
Benjamin glanced curiously at Professor Quirrell, it was a strange man, and he dared to come.
Professor Snape stepped into the bathroom and first glanced at the troll, Benjamin saw in his eyes the same desire for rare materials, but soon Professor Snape looked at Harry and Ron with a smirk.
Harry clenched his wand a little nervously, he knew it was bad, it wouldn't be good for Professor Snape!
"Harry, it's good that I knew nothing would happen to you. Can you tell me, great Master Potter, what are you doing here if you don't stay in your dorm. ”
As a notoriously biased person, Professor Snape simply ignored Benjamin, who should not have been here.
Harry seemed to be trying to figure out how to make a case, and Hermione stepped forward.
"It's me, I thought I was capable of dealing with trolls. They, they're here to save me!"
Except for Benjamin, the three children were all surprised.
The sacrificial friendship between companions really makes people cry!
In the end, Hermione was deducted 5 points for leaving the dorm room without permission and sniping trolls.
However, the others added 5 points to each for successfully fighting off the trolls.
So on this seemingly uneventful Halloween night, Gryffindor inexplicably gained 15 points.
"Alright, boys, now that the matter is settled, go back to the lounge. Professor McGonagall said to them that they needed to think about what to do with the troll.
Benjamin, however, looked at the troll, and seemed very reluctant to leave, and he pretended to be naïve and asked, "Professor, this troll, is it dead?"
Professor McGonagall listened to Hermione's account and had a good impression of the clever and brave (Benjamin: please don't use such a sensual word to describe me).
"I'm afraid yes," she said kindly, "it's unfortunate that it's chest down when it lands, and its internal organs are very fragile. This is also one of the weaknesses of trolls. ”
"Oh, does it have any other weaknesses?" asked Benjamin, as Frank had been dragged away by Ron.
"Eyes, its eyes are very fragile. But its eyes are rare magical materials, and I'm right, Severus. ”
"That's right. Professor Snape sounded a little upset, and he peeked at Professor Quirrell.
"Can anyone help me extract the materials?"
"I, Professor, I think I can try. Benjamin said excitedly.
