Chapter 179: Fear Curse
There was silence around the penalty area, Dumbledore looked down and thought about something, while Hagrid subconsciously touched his chest, as if to confirm that he was really alive.
"You just said that Lu Wei thinks I'm dead, so I'm going crazy?"
Hagrid scratched at his hair, feeling like his mind was messing up.
"Hmm...... That's right. ”
Kyle nodded, looked at Dumbledore and asked, "Professor, did you think someone used the Confusion Charm on Lowe?" ”
The three-headed dog's magic resistance is very high, and ordinary spells hitting it are similar to tickling, but that's also dividing people.
Just like Dumbledore just now, Lowe was no different from a weak doll in front of him.
A stun spell went down and fell asleep.
"It's possible." Dumbledore pondered for a moment, then said, "But it doesn't seem like a simple Confusion Charm to me. ”
Kyle frowned, "You mean to say that in addition to the Confusion Charm, there is another Charm on Lu Wei's body?" ”
"That's right, it's a dark magic."
Dumbledore took two steps forward, bent down to take a closer look at Lowe, the tip of his nose almost pressed against its fur.
Then Dumbledore tapped his wand at the head in the middle of the road and muttered, "Just like I thought...... Fear Charm. ”
"Fear Charm?" Hagrid was stunned for a moment, apparently hearing of the spell for the first time.
"Yes, it's not strictly a traditional form of black magic, it only appeared fifty years ago, and you probably haven't heard of it."
Dumbledore stood up and asked, "Kyle, do you know the Boggart?" ”
"Of course, Professor." "It's a shapeshifting creature that can see into people's hearts and become what they fear most," Kyle said. ”
"This dark magic is inspired by the Boggart?" Dumbledore put away his wand and said in a dark and calm voice, "It creates illusions that those who fall under this spell can always see what they fear most. ”
"It seems that someone cleverly combined the Confusion Charm with the phobia that made Lowe what he is."
Kyle nodded thoughtfully, he probably understood what Dumbledore meant.
The Fear Charm causes Lowe to see Hagrid's "death" again and again, gradually tormenting his spirit, while the Confusion Charm allows him to see everyone become a "murderer".
Kyle was glad to be in his heart.
If Dumbledore hadn't noticed the problem with Lowe in time, if Lowe had broken through the gate and run into the castle......
Kyle shuddered, not daring to think any further, predictably it would be an irreparable disaster.
You know, almost all the professors are in the Quidditch pitch at this time, and there are only a few students left in the castle who are not interested in Quidditch.
If they meet the crazy Lu Wei, I'm afraid that a single photo will be torn to shreds.
If that happens, I'm afraid Hogwarts will close as well.
OK...... Dumbledore found out in time, and the worst-case scenario didn't occur.
Kyle took a deep breath and asked, "Professor, do you have any solutions for this?" ”
"A solution?" Dumbledore's eyes flashed, "It's easy, as long as it'......"
"No, Dumbledore!"
At this moment, Hagrid suddenly burst into tears, and ran to Dumbledore, pleading, "Please...... Don't kill Lowe ...... It's a good boy...... Please......"
"I think you're mistaken, Hagrid." Dumbledore looked up at the crying Hagrid, patted his arm and comforted, "I never said I was going to kill Lowe . ”
"Really...... It's true? Hagrid clutched his chest and sobbed.
"Of course." Dumbledore laughed, "I promise." ”
While it was true that killing the three-headed dog was the easiest and most convenient way to do it, Dumbledore had never thought of doing so.
Because in the whole thing, Lu Wei is the most innocent one.
After Hagrid had calmed down, Dumbledore continued, "Coincidentally, I had studied the Dread Charm for a while before I became Headmaster, and I knew a lot about it. ”
"But for now, Kyle...... Can you please accompany Hagrid to the school hospital? ”
Dumbledore blinked, "I think he needs a good night's sleep now." ”
Kyle nodded and walked out of the room.
Clearly, Dumbledore didn't want them to be involved in what was going to happen.
Hagrid followed him step by step.
"Oh, I almost forgot ......" Dumbledore's voice came from the room again.
"Hufflepuff plus fifty points."
……
After leaving the exclusion zone, Kyle accompanied Hagrid to the school hospital.
Hagrid didn't like going there, but now he doesn't care about that much.
As soon as he remembered how he had looked before, Hagrid's heart felt like a pinprick in his heart, which made it impossible for him to concentrate at all, and he almost fell down the stairs several times.
Dumbledore was right, he really needed a good night's sleep.
Upon arriving at the hospital hospital, Kyle explains his intentions to Madam Pomfrey, but for some reason, he doesn't say anything about what happened in the restricted area, just that Hagrid was stimulated.
Madam Pomfrey glanced at Hagrid, who was standing there with her head bowed, and didn't ask much, but took out her wand and enlarged a bed in the corner.
She then walked over to a cupboard, pulled out a bottle labeled "Water of Life and Death", and poured all the potions into a barrel about the size of a Quaffle.
Madam Pomfrey poured three bottles before handing Hagrid the barrel filled with water of life and death.
"Lay down on the bed over there and drank it."
Hagrid took the barrel and stumbled over, knocking several beds along the way.
Much to the displeasure of Madam Pomfrey.
Fortunately, Kyle had set up the beds in time, so she didn't say anything, just a few words and left.
Not long after, there was a burst of snoring in the school hospital.
Kyle finally breathed a sigh of relief and closed the curtain on his bedside.
After exiting the school hospital, Kyle walked briskly across the courtyard, looked up at the direction of the Quidditch pitch, and sighed faintly.
There was no one flying over the stadium anymore, and faintly, he could see a large group of young wizards walking in the direction of the castle.
It's all a clear indication that the game is over!
Kyle rubbed his forehead, he had expected this to be the outcome.
It seems like this has been the case since last year, whenever there is an important Quidditch match, there is always something going on with him.
I thought it would change this year, but I didn't expect it to be the same.
