Chapter 113: Colin 4K
In the middle of nowhere, in the middle of nowhere, Linde sat at the window, his head propped up and looking up at the sky.
He sat and looked at it for a while, and then he looked at his hand again. The five fingers are repeatedly released and clenched. Feel the power in your body and try to stimulate it actively.
The scales quickly cover the entire body, and the chin extends with tentacles. Fins, palpe flippers appear......
It was the first time he had become like this on his own. Thinking about it, he squeezed his hand again, feeling the extremely dense muscle fibers on the fish-man's arm.
Put your hand on the window frame and pinch it gently.
Click!
The wooden window frames were overwhelmed and cracked.
"I haven't even used my strength, so I can get a lot of wizards with that!" Lind said with a frown.
The appearance of this force did not make him feel too happy, at most it can only be said to be a mixed blessing.
He wondered if this was a sign that he had been further eroded by the Cthulhu in his body.
"Hey! Aren't you going to say a couple of words? Lind asked softly in her heart.
“……”
"Why don't you speak? Can't do this kind of communication? Or do you have to pretend to be a little child? Just thinking about doing some low-level intrigue in a child's body. Linde continued to ask, adding the method of agitation.
“……”
"Are you really not coming out?" Lind whispered.
“……”
It seems that the guy hasn't eroded me that deep yet. Lind thought, as he said, that a god like Cthulhu shouldn't be able to communicate and play dumb.
Call!
The sound of taking a deep breath suddenly came from behind, accompanied by the sound of subtle footsteps.
Hearing the voice, Lin Degang lifted up his breath of relaxation again, and the characteristics of the fish-man on his body were all retracted at once, and he instantly changed back to the appearance of the thin human boy.
After that, Linde slowly looked back.
"Ahh
Seeing Linde turn her head, a little witch took two steps back in succession, as if she had seen something terrible.
She has long, unkempt blond hair, a carrot hairpin on her head, and a necklace around her neck made of various bottle caps.
There seems to be a limited edition of Coca-Cola from 1960. I don't know why she likes to collect these things to make necklaces.
She looked at Linde with an apologetic, fearful, and curious look on her face.
Luna Lovegood.
"It's you, what are you doing here?" Linde asked coldly. He was not a fool, he obviously didn't hear the footsteps after turning into a fishman, and when he found it, the footsteps suddenly sounded at a close distance, but only ten meters.
The human form can't hear it, and the fish-man form can't hear it.
And the sound of a deep breath like a courageous breath. It's like being surprised by your own sentence: "Are you really not coming out?" "It's the same as the one that came out of it.
The other party must have been behind him for a long time, before he became a fishman. That would explain why the footsteps were at this distance.
"Uh...... Hello. I was just passing by. Luna said nervously, then squeezed out a smile with some embarrassment.
Linde turned around, "I don't think you're eavesdropping. I'm glad I'm just here to see the scenery. ”
I'm glad I had my back to you and I was wearing a robe. Lind thought to herself. It was impossible for Luna to see what she had just turned into a fish-man, which was a blessing in misfortune.
Then, he thought of what happened to Luna at the sorting ceremony and asked with interest, "What did you see at the sorting ceremony?" ”
"I was taken aback by that ghost!" Luna said as she took a step back.
"Do you think I'm looking at you or behind your back right now?" Linde said angrily.
"Well, you're looking at me." Luna said stiffly.
"yes, so I don't know if you were looking at me or Nick, who was almost headless?" Lind said.
"Gah!"
Luna was startled by a sudden and unpleasant birdsong behind her, and when she looked back, she saw a purple-eyed crow staring at her from behind. In this dark corridor, its eyes seemed to be bursting with purple flames.
Linde stood up and walked towards Luna, "You seem to be scared of me, but I can't understand it. I've never met you, why are you scared of me to that extent! ”
Linde looked directly at the little witch in front of him, and walked slowly to her.
"Fear me and eavesdropping? I don't understand. Linde said coldly.
"I ......"
Linde saw her trembling body and words that she couldn't understand, and suddenly reacted.
After that, he chuckled and pulled the corners of his mouth a little reluctantly. "Whew! It probably scares you. I'm just in a bad mood today. Then he patted Luna on the shoulder and told her not to be afraid.
After that, he took two steps back to make the other person feel as safe as possible, and then raised his arm.
Luna didn't understand what he was doing, but a violent surging wind sounded in her ears, and a black shadow flew from her ear to the man's hand. It was the same crow that flew up Linde's arm, then turned its head to continue staring at her.
"This ......"
"Let me introduce myself first! My name is Linde Augustus. From Gryffindor, you know our Gryffindor ethos, and it was completely unintentional to scare you just now. Lind said as gently as she could.
"Well, my name is ...... Luna Lovegood, first-year Ravenclaw freshman. I just happened to see you sitting here, and I didn't have any idea. Seeing Linde like this, Luna cautiously explained. As Linde's tone and expression changed, the low pressure just now eased a lot.
"Well, I'm just here to breathe, you know, it's a lot of academic pressure!" Linde stepped back and sat back on the windowsill.
"Will there be a lot of classes in the second year?" Luna asked, puzzled.
"It's okay, but if you want to do better, you have to pay more than others. Especially when you meet some stupid instructors! Linde spread his hands and said helplessly.
"Gilderoy Lockhart?"
"Yes, you found out! He doesn't seem to have any real material. ”
"That's right, many senior students in our academy scold him in the lounge every day, and it is said that they are ready to start organizing this course on their own." Luna said with a smile. Her original happy personality was slowly revealed at this time.
It's really Ravenclaw.
"That's right!" As he spoke, Lin De saw that the atmosphere seemed to have eased a bit, and cut directly to the main question, "Take the liberty of asking, can you tell me what you saw during the sorting ceremony?" ”
"I ......"
"Say, I'm curious too."
"I just wanted to see the auditorium, and then I saw it...... A giant monster was seen above Gryffindor's table. ”
"What monster? In the sky? So what do you think I'm doing? ”
"It's a ...... A large octopus-shaped object with many tentacles and an emotionless gaze that looked around. Luna recalled, "But I feel like all I see is its head." It floats above you like a thick green fog, and then that fog spills out of you. Luna laughed as much as she could, but her voice still trembled.
"Is that all? How could that ......?"
"Yes, that's it, but I feel inexplicably scared when I see that monster. It's a gratuitous, incomprehensible horror. Luna crouched on the ground. It seemed that curling up in a ball made her feel a little safe.
"Then do you still see me now?" Lind asked.
Luna looked up at Linde. The long eyelashes blinked, and she looked at them for a long time before saying, "No," and then she added, "I only saw it for a moment, and then I never saw it again." So I didn't argue at the time that I was seeing the ghost. ”
It is only a moment of seeing it to have such a deep memory......
Lind felt that the other party was not deceiving herself. He felt as if his nose was smelling the scent of white orchids, and subconsciously told him it was Luna's "sincerity" scent.
It's the 'smell' that Dumbledore was talking about.
"So that's it, I thought I had done something to give you some misunderstanding." Lind smiled absently.
Luna stood up, "That's not a misunderstanding! After saying that, she looked at Linde and said with a grin, "Probably not." ”
Then, she finally looked like a little girl, "Your name is Linde, and it seems that you have made a friend from another grade after entering the school." ”
"Uh-huh!" Linde replied casually, without affirmation or rebuttal.
"I think I can go write a letter to my dad now, I haven't written to him in a long time, I can write you by the way." She continued to talk to herself, but the content suddenly shifted to writing a letter.
"Hey, wait! Is it okay not to write about the halluciation you see? ”
"What's wrong?" Luna asked in a trance, puzzled.
"Well, I don't want your dad to know that his daughter was scared by someone before she officially entered school, and he would definitely think I was bullying you."
"He already knew. I've written to him about this before. Luna said nonchalantly.
"Then ...... Uh, well! Lind wanted to say something more, but it was too much to make people suspicious.
Anyway, now everyone thinks it's an illusion, so it's an illusion! And only three people know that it is full of fights.
"Okay, goodbye." Luna smiled and waved goodbye to him.
"Goodbye." Linde said with a smile.
It wasn't until Luna walked around the corner that the smile on Linde's face vanished. Vacant eyes staring at the corner where Luna finally appeared.
This crazy girl from the original book...... It does seem to be something abnormal. What level did she see Cthulhu's vision!
Lind thought back to the description of him in the Cthulhu Mythos, and that artists, madmen, or people with other-thinking minds were most likely to catch a glimpse of his sleeping city of Lalaye or his incarnation in their dreams.
When they wake up, they spontaneously go to create nightmarish paintings and sculptures. And those who have nowhere to vent will eventually go crazy and even commit suicide.
Of anyone he knows of who has been linked to Cthulhu so far:
Harry was a half-fishman like him, and the exact status was unclear.
Dumbledore and Snape were unaffected, perhaps because of Occlumency.
Quirrell's current status is unclear.
And then there's Fox and Hans Christian Andersen. Hans Christian Andersen's changes are obvious, and Fawkes should have been unaffected, perhaps affected, but eliminated in the form of death and rebirth.
And then there's this crazy girl, Luna Lovegood. At least for now, she looks normal. Maybe she's really just getting a glimpse, or maybe the guy is too weak......
However, none of Harry, Quirrell, and Andersen, who had physical contact, were normal so far.
So he didn't know how much contact with Cthulhu would affect his senses such as spirit, sight, hearing, and smell.
Thinking about it, Linde felt even bigger. He knew too little about the guy in his body now.
The corridor became ethereal and quiet again, and Andersen, seeing that there was nothing to do, flew out as well, leaving Linde alone.
Lind looked out the window again, and thought about what had happened in Snape's office...... He needs to calm down tonight.
The curfew has long passed, but that's it! It doesn't matter what the prefect is, what the points are deducted.
He just wanted to be alone here and calm down.
Like a sculpture.
It wasn't until the sun was rising that Linde saw the misty morning glow in the distance that he came back to his senses slightly.
A new day has begun.
————————
The new week is still an ordinary past, the things that should be done are not left behind, and he has not done less than the things that should not be done. Unlike usual, Linde's words were much less.
But fortunately, everyone seems to be used to this Gryffindor inner ghost, and they are also used to it.
On Friday night, Lind was returning to the break room from the fourth floor when he heard a familiar voice from the empty classroom next to him, and Harry's name was mentioned.
"Look at the pictures of Harry Potter, one by one. before washing out the fresh goods. A young but strong philistine male voice sounded.
Lind immediately heard whose voice it was, Colin Creevey. A small man with a freckled face, a new Gryffindor student enrolled this year. Cradling a camera all day long to shoot Harry.
was also complained by Ron: You can form a "Harry Potter fanatical fan club" with Ginny.
Muggle-born, died in the final battle at Hogwarts. is a poor passerby character who dies headlessly. The most scenes are the year of the secret room.
A surprised immature female voice sounded, and it sounded like she was eleven or twelve years old. "Oh my God, I didn't expect you to really have it, oh my God, this one is so handsome."
The voice Lind was not impressed, probably a student of Hufflepuff, where there was no shortage of Harry fans.
Lind was very puzzled in his previous life, Colin Creevey, a little man who grew up in a Muggle family, only learned about Harry's deeds after he came to school, how could he worship Harry so madly like Ginny, and pat it with a camera all day long.
Totally, it's here!
Indeed, there is no shortage of children who have grown up listening to Harry's stories since childhood, and this little Muggle family has just come to the school to see such a business opportunity, and he has the ability to earn some income by selling photos.
It's a pity that it's not very clever.
Thinking about it, Linde walked through the classroom without alerting the people inside.
