It's just a Defense Against the Dark Arts professor.

Chapter 85

Both Harry and Ron held their breath.

They had already guessed in their hearts now that Hagrid's ultimate purpose for letting them follow the spider must be to get them to find this big spider - Aragog.

It can prove that Hagrid was wrongly expelled from Hogwarts 50 years ago.

And they also understood the reason why Sherlock came to the Forbidden Forest in the middle of the night to find Aragog.

However, Aragog did not give him a definite answer.

"No, although I have some guesses, I can't say it out. I can't provoke that ancient creature."

While it was talking, the surrounding spiders began to slowly gather in Sherlock's direction.

Sherlock looked coldly at Aragog who was crawling backwards, about to retreat into his cave.

"What do you want to do?"

"With my restraint, my children and grandchildren will not harm Hagrid, but I cannot prevent them from enjoying the food in their mouths. I have lived long enough, and I don't have a few days to live. Hagrid's business is not Focus on it, now I'm just a blind old spider waiting to die."

Harry and Ron looked at the giant spiders that were constantly coming towards them, and couldn't help but nervously grabbed Sherlock's robe.

They looked at each other with pale faces, and they both saw their common thoughts at this time from each other's eyes.

Professor Forrest's crow's mouth came true again!

"Animals are animals." Sherlock's voice was cold and calm. "No matter how nice people are to animals, animals will still only obey their instincts. It's really disgusting."

Aragog didn't respond to his words, because at this time, those giant spiders had already swarmed over, and they were about to be overwhelmed.

Harry and Ron screamed in horror, and at this moment Sherlock finally waved his wand!

"Burning flames."

Bright yellow flames surrounded him, and the scorching heat drove back the surrounding spiders, protecting Harry Ron himself and Fang Fang.

"What do we do now, Professor?" Harry asked eagerly.

Sherlock controlled the flame, and continued to spread out, spreading the range of the flame curse to a radius of five meters around him.

Those giant spiders backed down one after another. Not only were they afraid of the high temperature, but also the strong light source made them afraid to approach easily.

"Follow me, hold my arm, and don't let go." Sherlock quickly instructed Harry and the others, and then began to walk towards the periphery of the spider group relying on the protection of the flames.

Although acromantulas are also magic creatures of the xxxxx danger level, their weaknesses are also extremely obvious.

That is the fear of fire.

Sherlock had stayed at Hogwarts for more than half a year, and he didn't master too many advanced spells, but he was familiar with practical and basic spells like blazing flames.

Even the flame spell he used was stronger than normal wizards.

In his spare time, he had some simple exchanges with Professor Flitwick, who was a master in spells.

Even the master of spells, who has taught at Hogwarts for decades, praised the strength of his spells.

He thinks that he hasn't neglected the training and study of magic during these years at home, and he doesn't see that Sherlock has only started to get in touch with magic for more than half a year.

Because of this, he was very suspicious of the contents of the book "Soul Stitching" written by the original owner's mother that he found in the library.

Obviously, if the soul is torn apart, the strength of the magic will be reduced, but why does it increase when it comes to him?
Under the protection of the flames, Sherlock took Harry and Ron out of the spider's lair.

But those spiders who had been suppressed by Aragog and had never tasted human flesh since birth had no intention of giving up.

They were still like the pack of wolves behind the cows, hanging Sherlock and the others from a distance, ready to attack at any time after the flames disappeared.

"I really think of me as a persimmon." Sherlock said with a curled lip.

The flames continued to circle them, and at the same time he swung his wand at a pile of dead branches on the ground, which joined each other end to end in a long chain.

These iron chains were hidden in the leaves, very inconspicuous, Sherlock and the others were still retreating, and the iron chains continued to be extended under his transformation spell, until a spider's long legs touched the iron chains he left in place!
"Whoosh!"

Those iron chains turned from branches immediately circled up like swimming snakes, wrapped around the bodies of the five spiders in just a few seconds, binding them tightly like tying crabs!
Sherlock waved his wand again at the trees above the spiders' heads, and the leaves above them turned into sharp swords in the next second and fell down!

"Pfft!"

The sword blade instantly pierced the huge butt of the Acryantula, and green blood splattered everywhere!

The five caught spiders struggled desperately, trying to escape the range of the sword rain, but they couldn't break free from the iron chains that bound them.

In the end, he could only be stabbed full of holes, lying on the ground completely lifeless.

For the huge spider group, the death of five spiders was not noticeable at all, but it formed a powerful deterrent.

After all, in this forbidden forest, they have no natural enemies since they were born, and few of their kind have died at all. Even the centaur swallowed the fact that their territory was invaded by them.

Sherlock's counterattack caused fear in their hearts. Although they did not stop tracking, they also slowed down significantly.

After walking out of the territory of the spider swarm, the surrounding trees became denser and denser. After killing five spiders, Sherlock immediately unleashed the flame curse, spreading to all corners within a ten-meter radius!

Tongues of flames are rolling, and heat waves are rising!
The trees were set on fire, creating a barrier of heat between them and the spiders.

This time, the spider swarm finally stopped their stalking. Sherlock took Harry Ron and Hagrid's dog and escaped from the spider swarm.

Looking at the fire burning behind him, Harry asked with some concern.

"Professor, will this burn the entire Forbidden Forest?"

Sherlock grabbed him directly by the back collar, lifted him to the front, pushed him, and let him go quickly.

"You think highly of me too. The Forbidden Forest is so big, even if Dumbledore came, he wouldn't dare to say that he could burn the Forbidden Forest down. What's more, there are centaur living here, they will organize fire fighting."

As he said that, he also looked back at the spiders blocked on the other side of the sea of ​​flames, and said coldly.

"But the matter must not be left as it is. I heard that the venom of these beasts can be sold at a sky-high price in Knockturn Alley. Sooner or later, I will come to find them to make a fortune!"
