A certain Hogwarts rune professor

Chapter 38 Tracking
At night, on the edge of the Forbidden Forest.

Harry, Ron and Hermione hid in the grass by the edge of the Forbidden Forest, looking in the direction of the castle.

Hermione said a little anxiously, "I don't think we should doubt the professor..."

Ron quickly said, "Hermione, we have suffered in this regard. Remember Professor Quirrell in the first year? Who would have thought that he, who is timid and cowardly, actually has a Dark Lord stuck behind his head?"

"But that doesn't mean other professors—" Hermione tried to argue, defending the professor she admired.

"Think about Lockhart. He may not be a dark wizard, but he's definitely not a qualified professor. Harry, you forgot that you played a vampire in Defense Against the Dark Arts class?"

Harry thought for a moment, suddenly feeling sick to his stomach.

So Harry persuaded her in a low voice: "We are not suspicious, but we are curious to see what he did in the Forbidden Forest. This can also rule out a suspect, and we can even seek help from Professor Haip."

Hermione fell silent.

The three of them hid in the grass, and the November night was already a bit chilly, and the thin mist aggravated the cold feeling.

Ron's body was a little stiff from the cold, and he said tremblingly: "Maybe, he won't come tonight, or, let's go back first?"

"Wait a little longer," Harry said patiently.

After a while, it was almost midnight.

A tall figure stepped out of the castle.

"Someone is here, it's Professor Haipu." The three of them got excited, and finally they didn't wait in vain.

the other end-

Felix left the castle and headed towards the Forbidden Forest.

A cool night breeze blows on the face, which feels very comfortable.

He came to the edge of the Forbidden Forest, and then found that something seemed to be watching him.

Small animals?Forbidden forest creatures?

But they should not appear on the edge of the Forbidden Forest.

Felix took out his wand, and the tip of the wand sprayed out light. A dozen milky white light spots flew out and then exploded quickly, illuminating the Forbidden Forest with a radius of [-] meters.

Nothing.

He was a little strange, following his feeling, he came to a big tree and looked it over carefully.

After a while, he smiled lightly.

On the opposite side, the three little ones were wearing Harry's invisibility cloak, not daring to breathe, looking nervously at the opposite professor.

Harry could feel his legs shaking and Ron's hot breath on his face.

Fortunately, the professor didn't suddenly reach out to lift their invisibility cloak.He passed them and walked into the Forbidden Forest.

"Huh~huh!" The three of them panted heavily.

"Has he found out?"

"should not."

"Or, let's go back." Ron retreated.

"No, let's continue." At this moment, Hermione decided to persevere instead.

So the three of them supported an invisibility cloak and followed the professor in small steps.

Felix's speed was not fast. He fiddled with the wand in his hand, feeling a little strange in his heart.

The trio, the protagonist group, is there any "story" going to happen today?
There were too many flaws, the messy footprints beside the big tree, the slight sound of breathing, and the intuition brought to him, all exposed the positions of the three of them.

But what really made him recognize the trio was the smell of his assistant's shampoo.

That's why Felix didn't reveal it on the spot.

Felix walked along his planned destination, and found that the three people behind him followed, which made him a little surprised. Is their target me?

Also, take this opportunity to get to know the other two "protagonists".

After about half an hour, Felix came to an open space deep in the Forbidden Forest and stopped.

At an interval of 40 meters, Harry, Ron and Hermione also hid behind a big tree, "What is he going to do?"

"Shh!"

Felix raised his wand, waved his wrist, and hit the stone with three red spells. Under the amazed eyes of the three people outside the arena, the three stones turned into three big black dogs.

The big dog was half the height of a person, and its fur was smooth and smooth, like fine black velvet.The three big black dogs moved their bodies slightly, and then fixed their eyes on Felix, with their upper limbs lowered, their teeth bared, and their eyes full of aggression.

"Pretty advanced deformation skills... You see, they seem to be alive." Hermione commented in a low voice.

"I don't care about his Transfiguration level, I just want to know what he did in the Forbidden Forest." Ron muttered, but he also watched intently.

However, the next moment, what happened surprised them. The three big black dogs rushed towards Professor Haipu at the same time and attacked him.They are extremely fast, breaking through a distance of more than ten meters almost in the blink of an eye.

"Ah!" Hermione couldn't help screaming. From her perspective, the fangs of the big black dog were less than three feet away from Professor Haipu.

But Felix did not dodge, but cast a spell lightly.

Hermione was so anxious that even if she blocked a big dog, there were still two others.Harry and Ron also had horror on their faces, especially Harry, after a year, another professor died in front of him?

However, they obviously forgot that the three big dogs were transformed by this professor.

In a second, the situation on the field suddenly changed.

Felix's figure disappeared abruptly, leaving a cloud of black smoke in place, and the next moment his figure appeared two meters away. As soon as he appeared, a red light shot out from the wand.His figure disappeared at the same time, reappeared in another corner, and also issued a spell.

In the eyes of the three, the professor seemed to be transformed into three in an instant, casting three spells at the same time.

"boom!"

"boom!"

"boom!"

The three big black dogs were cursed and fell down instantly.

Under the cloak of invisibility, they stared dumbfounded.

"My God, what kind of magic is this!" Ron opened his mouth wide, still recalling the scene just now in his mind.

In the black smoke, the professor's stern face appeared with a red light, and then appeared in another place in the blink of an eye. This speed is dizzying, impossible to dodge or resist.

Harry's eyes widened as well.

In the center of the open space, Felix, who had just released his magic, shook his head, still not good, and deviated by half a meter.

This is two jumps. If it is eight times out of ten, is it possible that he will be hit by his own spell?
The reason why Felix came out was actually to perfect his trinity raid tactics. When he was a sophomore, he named this tactics the "instant kill" technique:
The principle is very simple, trinity, that is, three magics are used at the same time, perfectly integrated, and the effect of one plus one plus one is far greater than three.

The speed of "Apparition", the power of "Total Petrification", and most importantly, the "Mind Acceleration" to maintain one's own balance and responsiveness.

When they are combined, Felix can release spells from a dozen different positions in an instant, forming a gorgeous crossfire line, so as to achieve the terrifying effect that one person is a team.

The principle is really simple, but the road is extremely difficult.

The difference lies in how to improve one's own reaction ability and how to maintain body balance in an instant.

At the beginning of the school year, he researched the rudiment of this magic, or the branching technique - "Thinking Cabin", but it can only be used as a teaching technique.It has been more than two months now, and he is not idle during this time.

Hermione practiced runes in the Thinking Cabin, where he conceived how to apply them to battle.

Fortunately, he has learned a lot recently.

That's why he went deep into the Forbidden Forest for days on end - to avoid the ubiquitous anti-apparition spells in Hogwarts Castle!
"Two jumps, barely acceptable." Felix is ​​quite satisfied, after all, he will improve in the future.

Then, he raised his head and looked steadily in the direction of the trio.

"Come out."
