Chapter Ninety-Seven: Spoils of War
Hugo sat on the ground tired, there seemed to be no pain in his body, and the scene before him was a mess, full of rolling grass and broken trees, as if a hurricane had passed through!
At this time, Mama Rabi, of course, first wanted to ensure Helena's safety, and was shushing next to the little girl with an injured shoulder, and Jia'er basically didn't ask any big questions except for a little bruise, and she didn't actually suffer any injuries after the rain, most of them were bruises caused by the flying rocks, but she just felt very weak, as if her body was hollowed out...
At this moment, Hugo's mind moved, and he subconsciously thought of something, his eyes glanced slightly in the direction of Rabbi's mother, and found that most of her attention was focused on Helena, who was the most seriously injured, and did not pay much attention to him, so he struggled to get up from the ground, staggering with a feeling that he would fall down at any time, and then looked dazed and wandered around the badly injured environment.
Mama Rabbi took the time to look at Hugo, and did not seem to sense anything wrong, so she ignored him, and she was intently checking Helena's body for any hidden wounds.
Hugo soon came to the place where the battle was most intense, the traces of the battle of the two terrifying beasts were still clearly imprinted on the ground, and there seemed to be the aftermath of magic in the air, so that the great battle that had just happened not long ago was still vivid, Hugo carefully searched in the surrounding environment, refusing to let go of a trace of detail, and soon he found something!
A sharp fang, longer than his forearm, was hidden in the ground that had been rolled up! Just seeing this fangs made Hugo's skin have a faint pinprick sensation, and when he got closer, a faint fishy smell reached Hugo's nose.
This should be the fangs of the basilisk, the king of all snakes! This is a powerful weapon that can destroy even a Horcrux! When Hugo finds a good craftsman to make it into a dagger, the next time he encounters a guy like Daniel, he doesn't need to smash it with a stone, and when the time comes, he will be directly stabbed to death with a dagger!
Thinking of this, Hugo immediately wrapped his golden hair around the basilisk's fangs, pulled them over, held them in his hand, looked carefully at them with his back to Mama Rabbi, and then put it away!
In addition to this fang, which looked like the corners of the eyes twitched, there was also a lot of blood scattered around, most of the blood seeped into the surrounding land, leaving only a large area of dark red traces, but there was still a small pool of blood left on the grooved stone by chance, Hugo didn't know whether the blood was a golden wolf or a basilisk, or simply both, anyway, it must be very precious, he immediately took out the crucible and other messy utensils that were originally used in class from the Prophet's Eye as containers, and he could hold as many as he couldThis precious blood will surely play a huge role in time, or create extraordinary value! Of course, it cannot be missed!
Originally, Hugo's side was very happy to search for trophies, and even his tired body didn't seem to be as hard as it used to be, and the whole person was in a state of excitement of 'groping', but in addition to Rabbi's mother, several wizards appeared around one after another, which disrupted Hugo's rhythm at once, and under the gaze of so many wizards, he couldn't keep his head down to find something, so he was forced to stop making a fortune.
In addition to Professor Tom Bagman, the wizards who arrived were Mrs. Carmichel and the Brothers Grimm, but the second to arrive after Mama Rabbi was Kyle Eastwood, the Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher who had lost an eye and an arm.
Hugo sighed inwardly, and then he stopped harvesting the spoils, and this pause, and an even greater sense of exhaustion struck him, causing him to sit down on the ground again.
"Where is Lord Slytherin going?" asked Mr. Eastwood in a low voice.
Mama Rabbi took Helena in her arms, and then pointed in the direction where Lord Slytherin had disappeared, and walked towards the school with Helena without looking back, she wanted to bring little Helena back to Lord Ravenclaw, and if something like this happened, Lord Ravenclaw must have been very anxious in his heart, and he must tell her the news of Helena as soon as possible.
Eastwood and Mr. Bagman looked at each other, and the other teachers chased them in the direction of Lord Slytherin, while Mrs. Camitchell stayed behind to look after Hugo and Golden Seaweed, examined their injuries, and sent them back to school.
。。。。。。
When he returned to the dormitory, he was immediately greeted by a barrage of questions from Will, which were basically 'Why did you come back so late??Is swimming fun??
Hugo lay on his bed with a blank gaze, feeling that his whole body seemed to fall apart, and when he closed his eyes, he could think of the peak duel between Lord Slytherin and the werewolf, and the desperate fight between two terrible monsters, it was very beneficial for him to watch the battle of the top wizards up close, and he also obtained a lot of loot after the war, including the two wands of the dark wizard Borg and Daniel, which is a good thing, and can make a good deal with the sprats of the fairy house.
And the most shocking feeling that appeared in Hugo's mind at this time was not the fear of death, nor the shock of the duel between top wizards, but the feeling of 'the world is so simple, so transparent' at the moment when he used the disarming charm! That is, the moment when the Ravenclaw crown appeared on his head!
Hugo couldn't help but immerse himself in the fond memories of 'everything under control' over and over again, trying to get more experience, and he was already keenly aware that this feeling would be of great benefit to him, and it was an opportunity that could not be found.
While Hugo was lying on the bed and basking in that unique feeling, Helena's injuries had been treated, and she was crying and throwing herself into the arms of Lord Ravenclaw, and only at such times would Ravenclaw, who seemed to be indifferent to everything, show a loving and heartbroken expression, and the mother and daughter hugged each other and snuggled up to each other for warmth.
Helena looked up at this time, her face still stained with tears, she stared nervously at her mother and asked softly:
"Mother, is my father really the Dark Wizard Peverell?"
