Chapter 43: Assault
"Follow me from Ravenclaw College!"
Pekecy Mandy was the first to react. She stood up, didn't ask a question, and immediately organized the Eagle Academy students to go back to the dormitory.
The auditorium was suddenly noisy, and there was a lot of discussion. But the efficiency was not low, and they soon lined up and left in an orderly manner with the prefect.
"What's going on?"
Smith whispered, with a little regret on his face, presumably not yet full.
"I don't know. Probably something to do with Professor Kreer. ”
In Nolin's mind, he had replaced "maybe" with "certainly", because in his observation, only Professors Snape and Krell were absent just now.
The road back to the common room was calm, and many people's tense heartstrings gradually relaxed.
Naturally, there was not enough space in the lounge to accommodate all the Eagle Academy students, and everyone didn't want to miss the first hand, so everyone huddled together.
It wasn't until Professor Flitwick cast a Traceless Stretching Charm that the space was wide enough.
"Several unknown individuals broke into the castle and searched for something in the library, but were run into by Professor Krell. The principal asked all staff not to go out until it was safe to do so. ”
Professor Flitwick spoke quickly, a look of surprise on his face that had not had time to fade, apparently he had just learned the news.
"What about Professor Krell?"
Norin subconsciously felt that something was wrong and asked very directly.
"On campus hospital. Had it not been for Professor Snape's timely arrival, it might have been troublesome. ”
Professor Flitwick hurriedly said, "Now, you guys stay here. Pekethy, you watch them, I've got to go out and help. ”
With that, Professor Flitwick waved his wand and quickly left.
Norlin frowned, hesitated for a moment, and finally made up his mind. His wand silently pointed at his body, and he whispered a spell in his mouth, and his figure disappeared into thin air.
Norin...... Nolin? ”
Smith looked around and said, only to find that Norin was gone, and he was so shocked that he snorted twice.
"What's going on? Where did Norin go? ”
Pekathy accurately captured this sentence from the chaotic discussion, and subconsciously, questioned Smith in a loud voice.
"I don't know...... He seems to have disappeared after Professor Flitwick left. Smith said nervously, his voice raising sharply,
"Damn, he wouldn't be able to do this kind of thing, would he?"
Norin, of course, didn't think he could be a part of it. However, it was Professor Krell who had the accident, which was an important clue on his path of exploration, and more importantly, Professor Krell may be his elder.
Moreover, he could vaguely guess what the uninvited guest was looking for.
It's not something to sit idly by. Even if the power is small, he has to try, at least see it with his own eyes.
After coming out of the Ravenclaw chamber, Norlin went straight to the school hospital and questioned Madam Pomfrey, to which she subconsciously replied:
"Professor Krell was not seriously injured, drank a bottle of potion and insisted on going out. Wait, you-"
Norlin turned and ran, and the illusion spell was activated, disappearing into thin air. Madam Pomfrey was behind her and her face flushed with anger.
Knowing that Professor Krell was fine, Norlin was half convinced. He didn't stop and rushed straight to the library.
There was no figure on the way, which shows that the execution of each college is indeed not low. He constantly blessed himself with a levitation charm, reducing his physical exertion and increasing his speed.
By the time Norlin arrived at the library, less than a few minutes had passed.
The library was in shambles, with broken pages scattered and scattered on the floor. Mrs. Pince was long gone.
It seems that she is really just a librarian. Norlin actually complained leisurely.
The library was extremely quiet, but Norlin didn't dare to let off his guard, maintaining the illusion charm, and approached the forbidden book area step by step.
Before he reached the door, he saw a black robe holding a strange page in his hand and forcibly stuffing it into the robe.
There was even one missing?
Norlin was glad for his caution, who would have thought that there would be a murderer lingering at the scene of the incident.
He held his breath and waited silently for the man to leave. At least there was no idea of going with him, and the last time he won most of the time in Hogsmeade Village was due to luck, and luck couldn't always be on his side.
"Huh? Come out! ”
Who would have thought, but the black-robed man cast his gaze straight to where he was, and the spell in his hand was released simultaneously.
Damn it! How did you forget that people with strong magic can see into the illusion spell!
Nolin, who was highly nervous, saw the spell and subconsciously dodged to the side, exploding a confetti and flying.
Norin didn't hesitate, turned around and ran. It's too risky to fight him here, and it might make him jealous outside.
"Avada suo!"
The black robe probably thought the same way, resolutely not letting Norlin step out of the library, and the green light on his wand was like a poisonous snake, quickly burrowing into Nolin's vest.
Aren't you guys crazy, Avada at every turn, and the cost of this spell is very low?
Norin cursed in his heart, quickly flashed behind a bookshelf, and then ran wildly.
The bookshelf is pierced by green light, but it doesn't hit Norin. The bookshelf slammed to the ground, slightly blocking the pace of the black robe's pursuit.
In just a few seconds, it was enough time for Norlin to run out of the library. The black robe chased to the door of the library, looked coldly at the direction in which Norlin disappeared, snorted coldly, rolled up the robe, and turned into a gust of black wind and left.
Nolin, who was hiding around the corner, didn't dare to chase after him, and it was enough to come out and make sure that Professor Krell was safe. He came to the library just to prove his conjecture, and he thought there was no danger, but he didn't expect to meet the black robe.
Leave the rest to Dumbledore, at least he won't be able to get involved. Otherwise, if someone kills him with a life-seeking spell, there will be no place to cry.
Sure enough, it was the strange page......
On the way back to the Ravenclaw common room, Norlin couldn't help but think. It's just that he doesn't have any clues about that page.
Oh, maybe the inexplicable stinging in the forehead?
Norlin smiled self-deprecatingly, and went back through the Ravenclaw Chamber again, pretending to be inadvertently back next to Smith.
"Where did you come from...... Where did you just go? ”
Smith was taken aback again, and asked somewhat incoherently.
Before he could answer, Norlin saw a pair of eyes that were about to overflow with boundless anger.
……
Meanwhile, Hogwarts Castle is on the fifth floor.
The three black-robed bodies were in a hurry, fighting and retreating. Behind him, it was Dumbledore and the others who were in pursuit.
For some reason, they stopped running away after reaching the fifth floor, and reflexively fought back.
"Why haven't you come yet?"
The black robe at the head gritted his teeth and whispered angrily.
"I gave you a chance, but unfortunately you didn't take it. Alger. ”
Dumbledore's old voice rang out, his long white beard spread out, and he held an elderberry wand, seemingly fluttering, but the sound of footsteps was as heavy as Tarzan in the ears of the black robe.
