Chapter 231 Halloween Event - Ghosts 13
The little wizards of the other three colleges may never forget the day and night of Halloween in 1942.
When they realized that something was wrong with Slytherin, they found the key location relatively smoothly.
After determining the target location, the road can basically be said to be unimpeded and rushed there.
Although they had already made preparations for Slytherin to have cleaned up the scene after they arrived, and saw the actual movement on the way, they really never thought that they would see such a scene later.
……
When they speeded up and headed towards the open space beside the Forbidden Forest, it didn't take long for them to reach their destination.
It was because they noticed the distant flames, heard the screams, and felt the vibrations on the ground halfway that they realized that the situation was urgent, so they accelerated forward.
Although they had already made enough mental preparations, they were still shocked when they saw such a scene at first glance.
The open space was like a sea of fire, with orange flames burning everywhere.
The warm red light reflected on the little wizard's face and shone into their eyes.
The scorching heat caused the surrounding air to curl up in a distorted twist.
If it was just a sea of flames, it would not be enough for the little wizards to be astonished.
The huge, fat worm was like a huge mountain of meat, lying across the entire open space.
At this time, the huge "mountain of meat" was not standing quietly, but twisted in pain.
The familiar neighing sound allowed the little wizards to determine the source of the sound they heard on the road just now.
The huge sound of "Roshan" rolling violently and hitting the ground due to pain also gave a reasonable explanation for the earthquake felt just now.
Its struggling movements in the sea of flames allowed the little wizard to fully see its appearance - a fat white caterpillar in the shape of a silkworm chrysalis magnified countless times.
Many little wizards who were already disgusted and afraid of this kind of insects either quickly closed their eyes, or pulled their classmates tightly for comfort with shortness of breath.
Even the little wizard, who was originally indifferent to the white and fat caterpillar, felt uncomfortable under the fear of giants.
The white and fat skin of the fat bug itself has not returned to its original appearance due to the burning of the flames and the high temperature - the burnt black spots are all over the body, and many places of the round body have collapsed and sunken .
The smell of burnt chicken feathers emanating from burnt protein gradually escaped from the flames, and the little wizards covered their noses tightly.
Of course, some quick-witted little wizards have resorted to magical means to block the smell—using spells to purify the air around them or using spells to block the smell of burnt chicken feathers.
"Smoke-Dissipation." (Smoke Dissipation)
Seeing the wisps of smoke gradually rising due to the burning, Tom cast a spell on it once and for all.
It was also the light of this spell that caused the little wizard on the ground to turn his eyes to the sky.
"It's him! He's up there!"
"Everyone, look up!"
The eager shouts seemed a little joyful because they finally found the target.
The huge sea of fire illuminated the entire world, and Tom's figure could be seen clearly under the light of the fire.
Tom flew and stood above the sea of flames. In order to avoid the embarrassing situation of the flames licking the corner of his coat, Tom was at a very high position—a height that requires people on the ground to raise their heads to see.
That's why they raised their heads and saw Tom's figure with a clear reminder.
"It's this! It's this bug!"
A startled voice sounded, but the thoughtless speech made most people confused.
"The key to the increase in Slytherin's score is this bug!"
Although I don't know how a bug can bring such a big increase in scores to so many of them, but there is only one goal in this open space, so it is easy to draw conclusions.
This obvious key sentence made most of the little wizards come back to their senses, and the quick ones had already picked up their wands and planned to start aiming and attacking.
Their reflexes and movements are fast, but Tom's is faster.
Before the little wizards could make a move to get some points, several swift and fierce lights rushed down from the midair, and bombarded Fat Worm continuously.
But some young wizards were still not reconciled. Even though they saw that Tom's spell had hit the fat bug, they still kept waving their wands.
Tom's position is high enough to have a panoramic view of everything on the ground.
He saw their small movements, but said nothing.
Just chanted some spell, and the movable wand threw a ray of light downward.
The little wizard who attacked the fat bug on the ground thought it was another attacking spell, and didn't care at all——
If it is attacking fat bugs, it is not known who is faster and who is slower in terms of speed!
If they were attacking them, as we all know, the magic spell issued by the active wand will save the students from damage, but the other party will be deducted points.
Whether it is their own attack score or the opponent's score deducted due to "accidental injury", it is very cost-effective for them.
They thought very well, but they never expected that the result was completely beyond their expectations.
Tom's spell was indeed directed towards the fat bug, but not exactly towards the fat bug.
The spell he cast on the fat bug is called Armor Protection.
As we all know, the role of the Iron Armor Curse is to build a barrier and rebound attacks.
Although generally speaking, the Iron Armor Curse can only rebound the attacks of some simple spells, but the spells issued by the little wizards themselves are not complicated. With the addition of Tom's huge magic power, the effect of the Iron Armor Curse is even stronger .
As a result, all the attacks of the little wizards were rebounded by the Iron Armor Curse and failed.
This kind of development is really something that the little wizards did not expect.
We predicted that you would increase your efforts to hunt monsters or "kill" competitors, but we never expected that you would actually set shields on your target!
Is this reasonable? ? ?
Is it reasonable? ! !
Who fights and casts the Iron Armor Curse on the target?
So how do you attack yourself to get points?
Things are outrageous!
You would rather not get points yourself than let your competitors get points?
very good!Very unexpected strategy, you win.
But unexpectedly, things turned around again——
Tom fired a few more attacking spells in mid-air. These attacking spells penetrated the previous Iron Armor Curse very smoothly and without any barriers, and then landed on the fat bug precisely.
Little wizards: ...? ? ?
Little wizards: No... how did you do it?
A little wizard who didn't believe in evil tentatively issued an attacking spell at the fat bug, and as expected, it was bounced away again.
In stark contrast, several more spells pierced through the iron armor and hit the fat bug in the sky.
Little Wizard: I have never been so speechless in my life! (turning the table) I said so!How could you Slytherin do such a "reckless" behavior of burning jade and stone, preferring not to have it yourself than to let someone else's hands!It turned out that it was already arranged!
Next, under the watchful eyes of everyone, Tom dried up the "blood" of the fat bug bit by bit, bit by bit, which was a kind of psychology for the other three little wizards of the academy. Unprecedented torture.
……
The last part of the activity came to an end after the fat bugs were eliminated and the "ghosts" wandering in the castle were cleaned up.
At the time of the final statistical score ranking.
Of course, Tom, who had harvested a huge amount of points from Fat Worm, ranked first in the personal ranking with a daunting score.
Slytherin House also justifiably takes the top spot in the House Rankings.
Under the eyes of the gray and dead fish eyes of the other three little wizards of the house, the Slytherins smiled extraordinarily brightly.
Professor Slughorn also stroked his chubby belly, laughing so hard that he could barely see his eyes.
After Principal Dippet announced the final result of this Halloween event and announced the rewards on the spot.
The excitement of the little wizards due to the activity gradually faded away.
What follows is the endless exhaustion and sleepiness after emotional tension, overuse of the brain, and physical exhaustion.
So after the end, the little wizards rarely had the energy to go on a night tour, and all of them returned to the dormitory obediently and fell asleep quickly.
------
Tom (wearing sunglasses and smirking evilly): You can take it away with a powerful wave, but——it's not necessary. (Takes off the sunglasses) (Smiling evilly) I just like the feeling of torturing the opponent's mentality, (thumbs up) It makes people feel very comfortable.
