Chapter 130: Trolls

"Where's Hermione? Have you seen Hermione? As they went up the stairs, Charon asked Ron.

"I don't know, I didn't seem to see her when I left," Ron said in a panic. Charon looked at Harry, who shook his head.

"She seems to have gone to the bathroom," said a Slekrin girl, "I saw her when I went to the bathroom." ”

Charon hurriedly turned around and ran towards the women's bathroom, "You go back to the dormitory first, I'll go find Hermione, she doesn't know the news of the troll yet." ”

Harry and Ron glanced at each other, and the two gritted their teeth and followed, "Hermione is also our friend, so we'll go with us." ”

Charon thought about it and didn't dissuade him, in fact he didn't think the trolls were such a difficult thing to deal with, they were incapable of anything other than being bigger, and they were stupid. With him, I believe nothing will happen.

On the way, they met some crowds of people hurrying in different directions. As they struggled to squeeze through a crowd of bewildered-looking Hufflepuff House students, they blended into the crowd and walked in the other direction.

They slipped quietly through the empty side hallway and hurried to the women's restroom. As soon as he turned the corner, he heard hurried footsteps behind him.

"Percy!" Ron lowered his voice, pulling Harry and Charon behind a large sphinx stone sculpture.

They looked behind the stone carving, only to see that it was not Percy, but Snape. He walked through the hallway and disappeared from their sight.

"What is he doing?" Harry asked in a low voice, "Why didn't he stay in the basement classroom below, with the other teachers?"

"How do I know!" Ron replied.

"Don't worry about what he's doing, we've got to get Hermione." Charon replied hurriedly.

They walked down another hallway, trying not to make a sound.

"Can you smell anything?" Harry asked, sniffling, and a foul smell crept into his nostrils, the smell of a smelly sock mixed with a public toilet that was never cleaned.

"You two be careful, the trolls should be nearby." Charon replied warily.

Then they heard a muffled grunt and the sound of huge soles of feet dragging on the ground. At the end of one of the passages on the left, a behemoth was moving towards them.

To Harry and Ron, it was a terrifying 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.

The troll stopped at a door and peeked inside. It wiggled its long ears, made a decision with its small head, and then lowered its head and slowly slipped into the room.

Then they heard a voice that almost stopped their hearts—a terrible, terrified voice—coming from that room. That's Hermione's scream!

"Oh, oops." Ron said, his face pale as the ghost of Baro the Bloody.

"That's the women's restroom!" Harry couldn't even breathe.

"Hermione!" Both said at the same time.

Just when the two of them were panicking, Charon was already holding his wand, and with a loud shout, he rushed over with an arrow, and the scene in front of him made him terrified.

Hermione Granger cowered by the opposite wall, seemingly ready to faint at any moment. The troll was closing in on her, smashing the pool off the wall as it walked.

"Bone Tooth Shot!" Charon didn't even think about it, and with a wave of his wand, a small white light shot directly into the troll's back, but it didn't seem to do much damage.

The troll was hit like this, and it was like a mouse biting on its back, and it didn't hurt much, but it hurt. It stopped a few paces away from Hermione, turned awkwardly, blinked stupidly, and roared in its mouth to see what had hurt it. Its little ugly eyes saw Charon. It hesitated, then walked toward Charon, raising its stick in its hand.

"This ugly monster's magic defense is quite high," Charon muttered, another "bone tooth shot". This time, he took out two octagonal spider's fangs from his pocket and used them as casting materials. With the "Bone Tooth Shot" with real bone teeth, it has both physical and magical attacks, and it is much more powerful. It's perfect for dealing with monsters with high magic defense, such as trolls.

I saw two fangs roaring out like bullets, hitting the troll's eyes, dark green blood flowed out of its eyes, and it was blind.

The troll was furious, and rushed towards Charon with a giant stick at the sound, and Charon unhurriedly cast a small "bone wall block", and a small small wall of white bones suddenly surged on the ground of the troll's path.

The effect was obvious, the blind troll was directly tripped and fell, and its whole body fell to the ground with a bang, and the giant stick was thrown aside.

Charon had already dodged to the side the moment the troll fell. He watched as the troll fell in front of him, dizzy and unable to get up for a moment.

Charon pointed his wand at the heavy rod, flicked it high into the air, and then drove the rod down at a very high speed, smashing it on the back of the troll's head. I only heard a boom, and the troll, which was still struggling, was suddenly smashed and fainted. Charon still felt unsafe, and concocted it twice. Even if the troll survives, it is estimated that it is a plant troll.

Charon stepped forward to check, and the troll's face was blackened and his breath was gone. It seems that the poison of the spider fangs has finally flinched in full force, and the troll has hung up in a coma.

Charon's series of smooth operations completely stupidized Harry and Ron behind him, and Ron let out an exclamation for half a day: "Wow! It's just stupid! ”

Charon didn't bother with anything else, he ran to Hermione and asked eagerly, "Are you alright?" Didn't get hurt, right? ”

Hermione reacted, shook her head, and threw herself into Charon's arms and began to cry. Charon hurriedly comforted softly: "Don't be afraid, it's okay, it's all over." ”

Suddenly, there was a violent knock on the door and loud footsteps, and what a big commotion just now, it must have been the people downstairs who heard the violent collision and the roar of the troll.

Moments later, Professor McGonagall burst into the room, followed closely by Snape and Quirrell at the end. Quirrell glanced at the troll before letting out a feeble sob, sitting on a toilet bowl and clutching his chest.

Snape stooped down to look at the troll. Professor McGonagall looked at the four of them, her lips turning white.

"What the hell are you guys up to?" Professor McGonagall said, with a cold anger in her voice. Harry and Ron's heads bowed, and Charon got up and said calmly, "Professor McGonagall, I'm sorry, for some reason I had to disobey orders. ”

"You're lucky not to get killed by it." Professor McGonagall looked at Charon, ignoring him, and turned to Harry and Ron, "What about you?" Why don't you stay in your dorm honestly? Do you think you can deal with trolls? ”

At this moment, a low voice came from the shadows.

"Please don't do that, Professor McGonagall—they're looking for me."

"Miss Granger!"

Hermione finally struggled to her feet.

"I came to the troll because — I thought I could deal with it alone — you know, because I've read about them in books and know them well."

Ron and Harry looked up in surprise, Hermione Granger lied to a teacher about it?

"Oh—if that's the case...... Professor McGonagall muttered as she looked at them, "Miss Granger, you silly girl, how can you think you can deal with a mountain of trolls on your own?"

"So, that's certainly not true." Charon calmly refuted Hermione's lies and told the truth: "Actually, the reason is simple, Hermione is trapped here because she didn't know anything about the troll because she went to the toilet. And we came to her, and the reason why we didn't tell the teacher, but acted on our own, was because the situation was too urgent, and because I was confident enough to be able to deal with the trolls. We're sorry, we broke the school rules, and Hermione lied to help us. That's the way it is, please forgive Hermione and Ron Harry. ”

Everyone looked at Charon, as if amazed at his composure.

"Mr. Charon, Slytherin will be deducted five points for not following the school rules," Professor McGonagall decided to come back to her senses, "but I am still amazed by the courage and ability, and I have scarcely seen a first-year student deal with a full-grown troll like this." You also earned five points for Slytherin. I'll inform Professor Dumbledore about this. You can go. If you're not hurt at all, you'd better go back to the Halloween dinner in your own house. ”

When Professor McGonagall tried to withhold Crystal House scores, Snape almost retorted. Thankfully, Professor McGonagall added another point, which made Snap stop.

The end result was surprisingly good, Harry and Ron hurriedly pulled Hermione to salute the professors, and the three of them hurried out of the room, and then happily went up the stairs.

Charon was at the end, looking at the corpse of the troll, and suddenly asked, "Professor McGonagall, I killed this troll, so his corpse should be my trophy, right?" ”。

"Charon, what do you want a corpse for?" Professor McGonagall blurted out almost without thinking, but she quickly thought of something, and her face changed.

"I caught this troll!" Professor Quirrell objected almost simultaneously.
