The Strongest Badger at Hogwarts

Chapter 516: The Eve of the Crash

Responsiveness indoors.

Newland had already stopped practicing the Patronus Charm, obediently gave way to the corner, and handed over the space to the rest of the D.A. members who were still practicing.

He has realized that he may have encountered exactly the same problem as Link.

The long-term research and use of black magic has long left traces of the power of the curse in his body.

Now, strictly speaking, he could already be regarded as a dark wizard.

Patronus spell or something, naturally, he has no chance.

He wasn't much depressed, though.

In his opinion, the Patronus Charm is completely dispensable, and it's no big deal if you can't learn it.

Looking at it from another angle, maybe it would be a bad thing if he really learned it.

After all, even his boss, Link, failed to learn the Patronus Charm, but he, an employee, did.

This is not a good thing after all.

"As employees, we must always consider the boss."

Newland muttered to himself, quite touched by self-sacrifice.

But as soon as he finished speaking, Sceffen's voice sounded beside him:

"Don't use this excuse to comfort yourself. If you can't use the Patronus Charm, just say you can't use it. Why make excuses for yourself?"

Newland's face turned black after being punctured.

He suddenly turned his head to look at Si Gefen, and said with some gritted teeth:

"What are you doing here? Come here to mock me?"

"Of course not," Sceffen continued to stare blankly at the crowd who were still practicing not far away, "I can't use the Patronus Charm either."

"Cut! You don't need to use such a lame way to comfort me! I don't need it!"

Newland said coldly, but saw that Sceffen didn't answer him at all, and continued to stare ahead, with a look of loneliness on his face.

This expression...doesn't seem fake.

Newland carefully observed Sceffen's expression, and then laughed wildly:

"Pfft—hahaha! So you're serious? You can't use the Patronus Charm? You, a self-proclaimed knight of justice, can't use the Patronus Charm? This is the most ridiculous thing I've heard this year What a joke! Hahahahaha—"

Newland's laughter was like a sharp knife,

One after another inserted into Si Gefen's heart.

He frowned, and turned around, wanting to get away from the ravages of the harsh laughter.

But his action made Newland's laughter stop abruptly.

"What caused it?"

Newland grabbed Sceffen's arm, pulled him back to sit beside him and said.

Hearing this, Sceffen still didn't say a word, but just shook his head.

With Newland's current knowledge base, even if Sceffen didn't say anything, he could roughly guess it.

There are only three reasons why wizards cannot use and learn the Patronus Charm.

One is not enough talent, the other is that there is a remnant of curse power in the body that conflicts with the Patronus Charm, and the third is that there is no positive energy emotion.

Sceffen is a genius, and he is also a "Knight of Justice", so the first and second factors will not be the main reason why he cannot cast the Patronus Charm.

That is to say, the real reason why Sceffen is insulated from the Patronus Charm is that he has no positive energy emotions.

And in view of the casting method of the Patronus Charm, the main manifestation of this factor is-there is no happy memory that Yihao can recall in his heart!

"call--"

Newland gasped.

As soon as this idea came up, he startled himself.

It stands to reason that a child from a wealthy pure-blood wizard family with outstanding talents should be the baby of the whole family, and be pampered like Draco, right?

But the reality at the moment is so cruel.

'Is this too miserable? '

Newland sighed in his heart.

He felt that a child like him who had lived by the stinking ditch since he was a child was already miserable.

But even he has many happy memories under the care of his mother.

Especially after he moved his old mother to a new home with the gold coins he 'picked up' from the Gringotts vault some time ago, such pleasant memories and beautiful fantasies about the future have become even more.

Sometimes, these positive energies are so emotional that they can even inhibit the power of his dark magic.

And Sceffen...

Newland has stopped talking.

In fact he didn't know what to say.

He had no experience in comforting men of the same age, so he could only sit silently beside Sceffen.

Perhaps that was all Sceffen needed.

Because when Newland shut up, Sceffen had no intention of leaving.

Just sitting quietly with Newland.

The students in the distance were still practicing the Patronus Charm vigorously. Although most of their attempts ended in failure, they still had happy smiles on their faces.

The silver-white rays of light constantly bursting out of the air blended with the magic lamp and the firelight in the fireplace, forming a soft light that seemed to be able to directly reflect into the depths of human hearts.

Even in a deep dark corner, Newland and Sceffen still felt warm all over their bodies when they looked directly at the light.

This cheerful scene makes people feel happy and happy.

Unfortunately, this happiness did not last long.

Because at the very next moment, the door of the Room of Response was suddenly pushed open.

Filch broke into the Room of Requirement.

The crowd's eyes had just been attracted, when they saw Filch limping quickly to Link's side in a somewhat funny posture and said:

"Lord Foley! Let's go! Umbridge... Umbridge found this place! They are on their way!"

As soon as this remark came out, the crowd was in an uproar!

Filch is the existence that Link arranged to watch outside.

In order to allow him, who is a Squib, to enter the Room of Requirement smoothly, Link also specially gave him a D.A. gold coin that can assist in opening the door of the Room of Requirement.

Therefore, there is no doubt about what he said.

The Room of Response, which was originally bustling, became quiet in an instant.

Link straightened up and scanned the stunned people—they were staring at Filch, who was panting and almost fainted.

"What are you waiting for?" Link roared, "Evacuate!"

Link's voice was like the starting gun at a track meet.

The moment the words fell, the crowd below all ran towards the exit, huddled together at the door, and only then did someone successfully rush out.

Link, Emily and the others could clearly hear their footsteps running along the corridor.

"From the sound of it, most of them seem to have chosen to run straight back to their college's lounge. It's a really stupid choice."

Emily shook her head and said, "As long as they have any brains, they should choose to go to the library and the owl tower. Those two places are much closer to here than the lounge. And as long as they can hide in—"

"It would be nice if a few people could react." Cedric said, "You can't ask each of them to keep calm in such a dangerous time, right?"

Link also said:

"Actually, it doesn't matter, even if there are more members caught, it's fine, anyway, Umbridge won't hurt them, at most he will be frightened.

We'll save them when we get back. And this is also beneficial to our next steps.

Well, it's time, we should go too. "

After Lin Ke finished speaking, he took the lead and walked towards another door blocked by the portrait.

Emily, Cedric, John, and even Filch, who was still panting before, pretended to follow with a smile.

At the same time, facing such a chaotic scene, Harry's trio finally came to their senses after experiencing a brief period of sluggishness.

Looking at the crowd still huddled in front of them, they knew that the efficiency of leaving like this was really too low.

Even this will trigger a stampede, causing greater casualties.

So Hermione began to take Harry and Ron to take the initiative to help smooth the scene.

It's a pity that in the current situation, no one is willing to listen to them.

Even if the three of Harry were still teaching them as professors at the last moment.

After a short while, the three of them were scattered by the crowd instead.

Harry screamed desperately, but his voice and strength were nothing in the crowd.

No matter how he yelled and struggled, the turbulent crowd still kept him moving forward.

When he finally got out of trouble, he unexpectedly discovered that he was miraculously pushed directly by the crowd into the corridor outside the Room of Requirement!

"No! Hermione and Ron are still in there!"

Harry let out a yelp and started rushing into the Room of Requirement again.

However, this is just futile.

Although most of the people in the response room had been evacuated within a short period of time, the remaining wave still made it impossible for him to make any progress.

boom--

A red glow suddenly shot out from the dark corridor, fell straight into the crowd, and knocked out several students Link was familiar with.

This sudden scene is completely adding fuel to the fire.

The stimulated crowd immediately began to rush forward even more frantically.

However, the inspectors would not just let these people go.

One after another, figures with armbands on their shoulders continued to emerge from the darkness.

They waved their wands, and the red light extending from their hands was like whips, frantically whipping everyone who wanted to escape.

It's not that the members of the D.A. Army don't want to fight back.

Some members who often train together have even formed a training formation at the beginning of the battle, trying to counterattack and break through.

However, their attacks were like fallen leaves falling into the water, unable to make any waves at all.

The inspectors, who were all from elite quasi-graduates and had already received some quasi-Auror training, didn't even bother to remove their armor, they just sneered and turned their heads to avoid it.

Then, a disarming spell went over and knocked their wands into the air.

Ever since, the battle had just erupted for tens of seconds, and the members of the D.A. Army had already begun to despair.

But at this moment, a group of invisible giant force roared towards with the sound of breaking wind.

In just a split second, the inspectors who were still blocking one of the only paths that the members of the D.A. Army had to pass were all knocked unconscious.

"It's Link! Link is here to save us!"

Harry shouted excitedly along with the surrounding D.A. members.

But as soon as their voices fell, Link's figure appeared in front of everyone.

I saw him with a stern face, while turning his magic wand to block the spells coming from the other two directions at will, and said:

"Let's go, I'm here to break the queen!"

The crowd cheered loudly and began to run quickly along the passage Link had opened for them.

Harry looked at Link who kept waving his wand to help them stop the pursuers, and instinctively wanted to stay and fight side by side with Link.

This is what he admired the most as a Gryffindor, and it was something he had been looking forward to for a long time.

But his powerful reason still prevented him from being completely lost in this frenzied emotion.

What they have to face now is not the real enemy, but the inspection team formed by Umbridge.

You can't deal with such a group of people with conventional means, because the D.A. Army will be in huge trouble after seeing their faces and looks.

If an iconic figure like him stays on the scene, it can only be a hindrance to Link!

Gritting his teeth, Harry followed behind the large army and started running desperately.

However, he didn't go all the way to the dark like the others, but turned right suddenly after following for a certain distance, and rushed towards a girls' bathroom.

Years of night travel experience convinced him that running directly back to the lounge was not the best choice.

Such a long distance, such a big movement.

It is simply impossible not to be caught.

He can only escape by running into the girls' bathroom and waiting quietly for the matter to end!

Thinking so, Harry rushed into the bathroom.

However, at this moment, Harry, who hadn't slowed down, only felt that something caught his leg.

The strong inertia threw him out, and his head fell hard on the floor tiles.

Harry felt warmth gushing out of his nose, and then his entire face went numb.

"Ha! I caught one!"

Draco's familiar voice sounded.

Harry pulled himself up with difficulty, and saw Draco laughing and hiding behind an ugly dragon-shaped decorative bottle.

"Tripling Curse! Scarhead Pot!" Draco said with a smile, "I didn't expect that you would be the one who stepped into the trap. But this is normal, after all, you are just a smart fool!"

Umbridge hurried out around the far corner.

She was out of breath, but a bright smile appeared on her face immediately after seeing Harry who fell at the door.

"Great! Draco! Ha, great - fifty points for Slytherin!" Umbridge said happily, "You really deserve to be a descendant of the Malfoy family, you are really outstanding Already!"

Speaking of which, Umbridge looked up at the sign of the bathroom, and then continued with some confusion, "But why are you staying here? This seems to be the girls' bathroom, right?"

As soon as this remark came out, the smug smile on Draco's face froze instantly.

He stood there rubbing his fingers, faltering for a long time without being able to say a word.

Fortunately, Umbridge has already been dazzled by the sudden surprise.

"Forget it, these are small things! The most important thing is to catch Harry Potter! I'll take him away... Get up, Potter!"

Umbridge waved his hands and said, then bent down, trying to tug Harry's arm.

Harry glared at the two of them with hatred, and instinctively shrank back, trying to dodge, but the severe pain on his face made his movement extremely difficult.

And just when Umbridge's fat hand was about to grab Harry's arm, a voice sounded abruptly:

"Let Harry go, I'll walk with you."
