Chapter 224: Terrifying dementor

"This is your pet? A raven?"
The appearance of Papi the raven made Hermione's eyes bright. In the culture of many countries, the raven and the crow are both unknown symbols. In some places, they are even called death because they always appear at the death scene. bird.
But it is different in a corrupt country, especially in London, where the raven is an animal protected by law.
This is all due to the terrible environment in London at the beginning of industrialization. The environmental pollution caused by industrialization turned the world's largest city into a foggy city. The raven has become a city scavenger with its scavenger-eating characteristics.
If it hadn't been for a large number of ravens to wipe out a lot of animal carcasses and garbage, the environment in London would be even worse.
This has caused many London families to inculcate the concept that the raven is a beneficial animal when educating their children.
"Can I touch it?"
Hermione asked cautiously. Hermione had been very curious about this scavenger bird since she was a child, but it's a pity that this bird's vigilance and intelligence are so high that she has never had close contact with them. opportunity.
"of course!"
Pappy immediately exploded when he heard the words, but under the threat of Mike's eyes, he could only subdue.
Hermione jumped up in excitement, forgetting the Crookshanks waiting for her owner to pick her up on the ground, and she touched Papi's head directly.
Hermione was feeling right here, but Penello came over suddenly.
"Mike, I found..."
Penello suddenly got stuck in the middle of speaking, and looked at Mike and Hermione with straight eyes.
"Ahem~, Hermione, come here first. We still have some business to do."
"That's all right, I'll go find Harry!"
Hermione seemed a little angry and snorted and ran to Harry in the front carriage.
And Mike stood up with a smile and went to Lupin's carriage with Penello.
Neither of them spoke, but when he was about to reach his destination, Penello suddenly stretched out his hand and pinched the soft flesh on Mike's waist.
After receiving the pain signal from his body, although it was not very painful, Mike immediately bent over and bowed, and at the same time exhaled pain in his mouth, pretending to be seriously injured.
Penello couldn't see Mike's routines, and he went back to the previous carriage after seeing Mike. She was still working.
Seeing Penello walking away, the distorted expression on Mike's face immediately calmed down, and he took a breath and walked into the carriage where Lupin was.
This small carriage was full of four people, three freshmen from Hogwarts and an adult man sleeping with his head down.
The man was wearing a shabby wizard robe, and there were even several puddings on the robe. His drooping head was constantly undulating with the bumps of the train, his face was as pale as paper, and he looked sick, as if he was motion sickness.
This is the person Mike is looking for, Remus Lupin.
It can be seen that the three new students are not bad at heart. Seeing that there is a person sleeping in this carriage, they deliberately suppressed their voices very low.
"Hey, how are you guys."
"Um, hello."
Mike greeted these freshmen enthusiastically, and those freshmen seemed a little nervous because they didn't quite adapt to Mike's enthusiasm.
"I'm sorry, friends. You got in the wrong car. This car is the professor car." Mike pointed to Lupin who was sleeping and said, "The freshman car should be in the front of the car."
"But we have been there and it is full."
These kind-hearted little wizards were obviously deceived by Mike, and they were a little embarrassed to tell Mike their difficulties.
"How is it possible? There must be room. I swear to you in the name of my Gryffindor prefect, Percy Weasley!"
"Then...that's OK. Let's go see it again."
Mike looked at the three little wizards with a smirk as they walked away, but suddenly a somewhat hoarse voice came from behind him.
"Your behavior is really bad."
"I didn't lie to them, there is really room in the front compartment." Mike closed the compartment door and sat down and said, "Besides, I just want you to sleep better, Professor Lupin."
When Professor Lu Ping saw Mike revealing his identity, his sleepy eyes widened slightly, and then he yawned and said, "Who are you? I don't remember a blond boy from Weasley's family."
"Okay, I know I can't lie to you." McLaughter laughed, then stood up and stretched out his right hand to the man and said, "Officially introduce, McTorry, Ravenclaw third grader."
Lupin was a little surprised by Mike's seriousness, he instinctively stood up and stretched out his right hand. But then he drew back, wiped his wizard's robe, and held Mike's hand together.
"It's an honor to meet you, Mr. Tony."
After the ceremony, the two sat down one after another. The movement of Lupin wiped his right hand just now gave Mike a great touch, which is a kind of inferiority complex.
Mike's eyes glanced back and forth between Lupin's box and body, and finally came to the conclusion that the professor had a pretty bitter life before.
This is not difficult to see. After all, Lupin is already declining before he is old. Not only is his body thin and his broad robe is empty, but also a lot of white hair appears on his head.
As for the tattered robe, Mike even suspected it had been worn for more than ten years.
In order to please Professor Lupin, Mike put a lot of food in his non-marking stretch curse bag. When he took out all the food, Mike found that Lupin's eyes lit up a lot.
Lupin's food is very elegant. Although he is very hungry now, he still keeps chewing slowly in front of Mike.
It can be seen that he is a well-educated person.
Mike made a judgment again.
No way, he is not a superman. He only remembers the plot of the original story now. He doesn't know much about supporting characters like Lupin. Knowing that he is a master of the patron saint spell is already the limit.
So now Mike can only try to understand the man in front of him through constant observation.
As the saying goes, people’s mouth is short. After Lu Ping ate the food that Mike brought, his relationship with Mike became more intimate. The two chatted all the way and the atmosphere was quite harmonious.
However, when he was about to arrive at Hogwarts, Mike suddenly felt that the surrounding light quickly dimmed, and the train also slowly stopped.
Mike's heart tightened, and the black prickly pear wand appeared in his hand silently.
"Damn it, how dare they!"
Lupin's reaction on the other side was more intense than Mike's. He stood up with a swipe, took out his wand and began to look out the window.
"A dementor?"
"Yes! Mike, don't be afraid, it's absolutely fine with me!"
Lupin was not surprised at all about Mike's knowledge of the Dementors. He already knew that Mike was Flitwick's proud disciple during the small talk just now. It is not surprising to know these things.
Darkness fell quickly, and after a while, the car window had completely turned into invisible darkness. At this time, the lights in the carriage that were originally used for lighting also suddenly went out, and the whole Hogwarts Express quickly fell into the bottom. Into the darkness.
"Fluorescence flickers!"
Lupin and Mike unanimously released the lighting spell, and finally there was a glimmer of light in the dark car.
Listening to the cries coming out of other cars in the distance, Lupin frowned and said: "There is a mess over there, I'll go and see first, Mike, please protect yourself."
"I'll go with you, my girlfriend is still ahead." Seeing that Lupin was a little worried, Mike continued to explain, "Don't worry, I will also guardian spell."
‘Although it’s only half-hearted. Mike added in his heart.
Lu Ping no longer insisted upon seeing this, and took Mike directly to the front carriage.
As soon as the two of them got out of the carriage, they saw a black figure wearing a cloak floating towards each other.
The black shadow was tall and big, with his head almost reaching the ceiling. At this moment, the black shadow seemed to be in a good mood. The hands outstretched from his large cloak were happily stretching.
Mike felt that it was an insult to describe them with his hands. The claws were shining in the dark, and there were many spots on them, like corpse spots.
Then, the monster raised his head and took a long breath. With the gurgling sound in its throat, Mike just felt that all the good emotions were constantly dissipating, and replaced it with a biting chill.
The chill quickly eroded Mike's body, spreading from the skin to Mike's body little by little. In the end, Mike felt that his brain was almost frozen.
Mike started to feel dizzy for no reason. He could hear the horrified screams of the little wizards around him, but at the same time, there was a sound constantly surrounding his ears. Mike tried hard to hear clearly, but that Dao's voice is still indistinct.
"Call God to guard!"
A soft light pierced the darkness like a dawn, and pulled Mike back from the edge of the fall.
The chill dissipated, and Mike's strong physical fitness made Mike quickly recovered, and what appeared before his eyes at this moment was a light wolf suspended in mid-air, composed entirely of shining positive energy.
This light wolf is huge, brave and good at fighting. He raised his head in the air and screamed silently, then walked in the air and rushed towards the dementor.
The dementor seemed to be very afraid of the shining white wolf, and flew out of the train as if covering his face with his slender claws.
"Are you okay Mike!"
Lupin did not direct his patron saint to chase the dementor, but asked about Mike with concern.
At this moment, Mike felt very bad. The dementor threatened him more than he thought. He felt desperate just now.
Although his hands were still trembling, Mike nodded firmly and said, "It's okay, let's go ahead."
For Lupin, Harry's safety is obviously more important than Mike's. When he heard Mike say that he was okay, Lupin didn't say anything more, and hurried to the front car.
Upon seeing this, Mike gritted his teeth and threw a piece of chocolate into his mouth, chewing hard, and followed.
The situation was worse than Lupin had estimated. A dozen dementors boarded the train on the grounds of inspection, consuming the happy emotions of the little wizards.
This move caused a huge commotion. Even though Lupin was already trying his best to get rid of the dementors, the students on the train were still in chaos.
At this time, the benefits of the prefect and student union system were reflected. The powerful prefects stood up to maintain order in times of crisis, and took over the chocolates given by Mike and distributed them.
When Lupin and Mike arrived in Harry's carriage, Harry was already surrounded by a large circle of people.
"Get out of the way and let me see! I'm a professor!"
At this time, Lu Ping didn't care about being low-key, shouting that I was a professor and squeezed into the crowd, but the scene that appeared in front of him when he successfully reached the center of the crowd almost broke him.
Harry was pale, lying silently in Hermione's arms, not knowing his life or death.
Lupin put his hand on Harry's neck like lightning, and let out a sigh of relief after confirming that Harry was not dead but fainted.
"Professor, is Harry all right?"
Hermione sobbed and asked Lupin, and Lupin said with a relaxed look: "It's okay, he just passed out."
After that, Lupin took out a half-eaten piece of chocolate from his torn robe and said to Hermione, "When he wakes up, let him eat this. Chocolate can make people happy."
After dropping such a sentence, Lupin quickly ran to the front of the car. He is very busy now, and there are dementors raging in the front car.
On the other side, Mike quickly came to Penello's carriage while Lupin was checking Harry.
Unsurprisingly, there is also a dementor in the carriage where Penello is absorbing the happiness of the students. This group of dementors is definitely premeditated, otherwise it won’t be a carriage for one’s own hunting area. The division is so clear~EbookFREE.me~ Mike’s eyes are constantly searching in the car, and finally he finds Penello in a corner. At this moment, she is huddling together with her three children, watching in horror gradually approaching Dementor.
Maybe it was the chocolate that I just ate that worked, or maybe it was Penello's horrified expression that gave Mike power. Mike flashed in his mind and raised his wand when he was with Penello.
"Call God to guard!"
A cloud of bright light emerged from the tip of Mike's rod, slowly drifting towards the dementor.
This light attracted the attention of everyone in the carriage. Penello turned his head and saw Mike, his eyes lit up in an instant, and then he roared:
"Run! Mike!"
Mike ignored Penello's cry and tried his best to think about the things that could make people happy, while holding his wand high and approaching the dementor.
The light from the Patronus Charm obviously made the Dementor very uncomfortable, but it was only uncomfortable, far from dispelling him.
Under Mike's pressure, it slowly covered its face and retreated slowly but didn't want to run away. It also roared towards Mike from time to time.
It is not willing to these pure food!
In Azkaban, they can only absorb the joy of the prisoners repeatedly every day, and the joy of those prisoners is really worrying because of the quality of being repeatedly ingested by them. Now they see how fresh food they can easily give up.
One person and one blame were so stalemate, Mike felt the magic power flowing quickly in his body and secretly said badly.
Sooner or later he will be dragged to death if this continues.
But at this moment, Mike only felt a warmth coming from behind him, and before he turned his head to look, he saw a huge light wolf crossing him and rushing towards the dementor.
Lupin is here!
