Chapter 212 Activating the Patron Saint and Black (3.5 in 1)

The howl of a dementor is not loud, but it is extremely penetrating. Few people have heard the scream of a dementor.

Because most people lose the ability to resist after seeing dementors.

The sky that was originally covered with dark clouds seemed to have turned completely dark. It was a deep, depressing darkness that could not see any hope.

The sea breeze seemed to have become colder, and the sounds gradually became blurry and distant.

In Zhang Xiao's eyes, everything around him began to lose color, and the whole world turned into black and white.

Dementors wearing tattered cloaks came from all directions, and the vague whispers around them became much louder.

Even with the warm white light on his body, Zhang Xiao felt goosebumps rising on his arms.

The warden had already released the Occlumency, holding up his wand and looking nervously at the sky.

A thin silver-white mist was spraying from his wand and covering his body, and it was obvious that the Patronus Charm had been used.

"Your Excellency Dumbledore." The warden turned back: "Is it really okay?

I have never seen so many Dementors gathered, they are usually scattered throughout Azkaban.

With so many dementors, I'm afraid ordinary physical guardian angels can't expel them, right? "

Dumbledore gave him a reassuring gesture and pointed at Zhang Xiao, who was standing in front and looking up at the sky:

"Relax let's check on Zhang first, if that doesn't work I'll let them calm down."

The warden nodded, and even with Dumbledore's assurance, he still held the wand tightly in his hand.

It is difficult for people like them to place their lives on others.

Another thing he didn't say was that there were too many dementors in Azkaban, and the prisoners imprisoned here alone could not satisfy them.

The Ministry of Magic has to regularly transport other creatures here to serve as food for these monsters.

These are top secret, as only intelligent beings can produce the emotions that dementors can feed on.

If those races knew that the Ministry of Magic was secretly feeding dementors.

The public opinion caused was enough to bring down the entire Ministry of Magic.

What's more important is that today is just a few days before delivering food to the dementors.

The dementors, who have been hungry for a long time, will become even crazier driven by hunger!

There are more and more dementors, they are floating in mid-air, like a flock of black crows, and like the death-stealing god of death.

Some weird and inexplicable sounds loomed in the air, and thick fog slowly surrounded here from all sides.

They seemed hesitant to disobey the Ministry of Magic's orders and attack non-prisoner visitors.

In the end, the pitiful sanity of this group of dementors was overwhelmed, turning into black shadows and pounced down from mid-air.

coming!

Zhang Xiao held the wand and swung it vigorously in a motion similar to fishing.

A bright light lit up at the tip of the wand.

The carp, which was as tall as a person and made of silver light, was squeezed out of the wand with its head and tail wagging as if it had been fished out of the river.

In just an instant, the warm light dispelled the surrounding darkness in Zhang Xiao's eyes.

It was like a bright moon rising in the sky, lighting up the gloomy night sky.

The world that was originally black and white restored its original color at an extremely fast speed.

The warden's eyebrows were raised high, as if they were about to fly out of his face:

"Physical patron saint? This child?"

Dumbledore stared at Zhang Xiao and his magical patron saint with all his attention, and said softly:

"That's right, the physical guardian angel is still an extremely skilled guardian angel, second grade."

The carp swam happily around Zhang Xiao, and then, as if it saw something of great interest, it charged towards the dementors coming from the sky.

Looking from a distance, a ball of silver light rushed straight towards a large area of ​​darkness.

The carp patron saint showed a side that had never been shown before, and circles of silver halo like waves emanated from its body.

When these circles touch the dementors, they seem to turn into entities, and they are thrown away fiercely.

It's just that the damage caused by this halo to the Dementors is not great. After being bounced away, many Dementors will turn around in the air and swoop down again.

The silver light emitted by the patron saint will make the dementors feel extremely uncomfortable, and under normal circumstances, they will be driven away.

But this is an extremely hungry dementor!

They ignored the glow emanating from the carp patron saint and still launched an attack, hoping to break through the patron saint's defense and rush down to enjoy a delicious meal.

In the eyes of the dementors, Zhang Xiao below was like an extremely delicious food.

It is very rare and they have never been seen before.

They have the pure joy of children and the rich memories of adults. They can't wait to taste this 'rare breed'.

The patron saint seemed to have discovered that he could not drive away the group of dementors. It swung its tail in the air extremely nimbly, turning into a silver stream of light.

Shuttle back and forth between the Dementors, or slam into the Dementors' chests with your head.

Either he slapped their cheeks with his tail fin, and in the end, the Carp Patronus actually spit out silver bubbles, trapping these Dementors in the bubbles.

These dementors screamed and tried to rush out, but once they touched the bubble wall, they shrank back again as if they had touched a hot iron.

Dumbledore's blue eyes reflected the scene in the sky.

The warden was completely stunned. He put down his wand, tried hard to remember something, and asked in shock in an indescribable tone:

"Your Excellency Dumbledore, is this biological? Animated physical Patronus?"

Dumbledore showed a smile. When Zhang Xiao released the physical Patronus for the first time, he only observed it from a distance, but he was not sure.

Until this moment, he was finally sure.

"Yes, biological, activated physical guardian angel. This is really amazing."

"But how is this possible?" The warden finally lost his composure. He waved his wand and summoned his own patron saint, which was similar to a puppy.

"At his age, being able to summon a physical patron saint is already very - very incredible. How can he still be a biologically activated physical patron saint?"

The Patron Saint Spell has a very interesting feature. This spell actually has only two realms, the fog state and the physical Patron Saint.

But there are several types of physical guardian angels. For example, the most basic physical guardian angel released by D.A's students is just a shell.

In the future, the patron saint will become more and more like a living creature, and finally it will be like a real animal, just like the carp summoned by Zhang Xiao. This is biological, also called an activated patron saint.

Going higher cannot be achieved through ordinary training. It requires an opportunity to break through oneself, sublimate to the highest level, and transform the patron saint into a magical animal.

Dumbledore is the only person currently alive who is known to have achieved this state.

Dumbledore pointed at the silver Patronus who was traveling back and forth in the sky, trapping the dementors in bubbles:

"But seeing is believing, isn't it?"

The warden was stunned for a moment, waved away his patronus, and stood silently in front of Dumbledore.

Zhang Xiao shook his robe and walked forward.

"What is he going to do?" The warden was surprised again, because Zhang Xiao was walking towards the only dementor still floating in the low altitude, which was the dementor who had been slapped before.

Above the sky, there were Dementors flying around, as well as huge silver bubbles, and the silver light turned into carps streaked across the sky.

These silver bubbles floated up and down in the sky, actually decorating the gloomy sky with a dreamlike appearance.

Coupled with the terrifying and weird dementors trailing in black robes, it actually has a kind of absurd beauty.

Zhang Xiao came to the Dementor. The Dementor was nearly eight feet tall and he had to raise his head to see it.

The Dementor also lowered his head and looked at the "food" in front of him. There was an emotion similar to 'anger' in his simple thinking.

It stretched out its rotten and dry hands, completely forgetting the previous lesson, and wanted to grab the food in front of it and suck away its happiness.

Zhang Xiao pursed his lips and stabbed forward with the wand in his hand. Yun Jin wrapped the wand in an instant and turned into a spear with a cold light. The golden light spread to his arm almost simultaneously.

There was a muffled sound of "Puff", and the Dementor let out a shrill scream, and was hung in the air by a spear.

"We got permission from the Ministry of Magic to come here to take away Sirius Black." Zhang Xiao said calmly, without any emotion in his voice.

Silver light shot out from the sky, and it turned into a carp again, but in a much smaller size.

It swam happily beside Zhang Xiao.

Above the sky, those bubbles burst suddenly, like grand fireworks blooming in the sky, and the hissing screams of the dementors filled the entire sky!

Zhang Xiao stood under the fireworks, grabbed the spear, and asked again:

"So, can we go in?"

As fast as the dementors came, they ran away.

The warden stood there blankly. Under the silver fireworks that filled the sky, the scene of Zhang Xiao holding a spear and holding a Dementor seemed like a painting.

It is deeply imprinted in my mind and will never be forgotten again.

If he did it by himself, the warden felt that he could drive away one or two hundred dementors, but he would never be able to achieve that indescribable beauty.

He smiled bitterly and said:

"I finally understand why people in the ministry always say when they read the newspapers that another rising star has risen in the wizarding world."

"The star of tomorrow?" Dumbledore seemed to like this statement very much. He chuckled, shook his sleeves, and put away the Elder Wand: "It's a good metaphor."

"Let's go, they let us in!" Dumbledore said with a smile.

Zhang Xiao was already waiting for them in front.

The three of them walked into the building in front, which was dark inside.

Obviously, the dementors did not need torches or the like for lighting, and they had no intention of preparing such things for the prisoners.

The surrounding temperature has dropped a bit, and the dementors are no longer hiding and licking their wounds. Zhang Xiao feels that this dark building is like an icehouse.

The three of them lit up their wands at the same time, and the light dispersed the darkness, and they could barely see the things around them clearly.

There are no guards on the ground floor, and the rooms on both sides of the corridor have been transformed into prisons.

Through the railings, Zhang Xiao found that many rooms inside were empty, but some still held prisoners.

In addition to human wizards, there are many other races, such as elves and the like.

They seemed to be in pretty good shape, and at least when they saw someone coming, they at least begged to let them out.

Some people even knelt on the ground and cried bitterly, swearing and swearing to express that they knew their mistake and would change their ways after leaving, and begged to get out as soon as possible.

The warden said somewhat unnaturally:

"Because dementors need to be fed, otherwise they will lose control, so many people are only sentenced to short prison terms. Don't worry, being absorbed for a short period of time will not have the slightest impact!"

Dumbledore did not speak. Although he objected to using dementors as guards, this was the collective decision of the Ministry of Magic. Neither Dumbledore in the past nor Dumbledore now would choose to overturn it.

Now Dumbledore will only keep an eye on those big shots who voted for it, and is ready to send them to the prison they voted for at any time!

But he still remembered to do some popular science for Zhang Xiao:

"As one of the most evil creatures on Earth, Dementors feed on the peace, hope and happiness in the air around them!" Dumbledore stopped and said slowly:

"We still don't know the specific origin of the dementors and how to kill them."

Zhang Xiao didn't speak. He actually didn't know much about Dementors, and he only scratched the surface.

Now that you have the chance, of course you should listen carefully.

"Professor Dumbledore, can the Dementor's Kiss absorb souls?"

Dumbledore paused and nodded slowly:

"It is said to be so, because although the person kissed by the dementor is still alive, he is like a walking corpse."

It sounded like three souls and seven souls had been taken away, but Zhang Xiao always felt that something was wrong.

Moving forward, so do all the creatures imprisoned in the surrounding room.

The scenes on the second, third and ground floors were similar, but there were more and more prisoners.

Compared to the previous level, the condition of these prisoners was much worse.

These are prisoners who have been incarcerated for more than a year. They have absorbed emotions over time and have long lost positive emotions such as hope.

The rest were all negative emotions. When I saw someone coming, I just turned my head and glanced.

All were lifeless, only despair for life and desire for death.

Zhang Xiao couldn't help but tremble as he looked at them. Let alone a year, he felt that he might not be able to bear it as long as he was locked up here for one day.

On the fourth floor, dark wizards began to appear in the cells on both sides of the corridor.

These were serious criminals, many of them Death Eaters and the like.

They no longer even have curiosity or normal reactions. They just stare blankly at the only narrow window on the wall, which is the only light in the darkness.

In addition to being in a daze, some people are in a better state. They lie on rusty iron beds and force themselves to sleep. It seems that as long as they fall into a deep sleep, they can escape everything in front of them.

But there were screams from time to time. It can be imagined that they were having a nightmare.

None of the three people spoke, but walked in silence. No matter who they were, they would not like this atmosphere full of depression and despair.

This is one of the main reasons why wardens learn Occlumency.

In addition to preventing the negative effects of dementors, it is also because without Occlumency, the warden would sooner or later go crazy in this environment.

Even so, the warden's vacation period is much longer than that of other professions.

On the fifth floor, the warden had used Occlumency again and said dryly:

"This level is full of extremely vicious criminals, all Death Eaters who have committed numerous crimes. They have been sentenced to life imprisonment."

The warden seemed to think that being so silent was not good, and tried hard to make the atmosphere less depressing.

He pointed to the first cell and said:

"Here is Antonin Dolokhov!"

Zhang Xiaozai saw a tall, round-waisted man lying on the bed in the room.

He has dark brown hair and a long face. Although he has experienced the torture of dementors, the cruelty and ferocity on his face can still be seen.

The warden is still introducing: "

He is one of the mysterious man's most valued subordinates and the most loyal of the Death Eaters.

After taking refuge with Voldemort, he learned more advanced and cruel magic. He was extremely cruel and liked to torture Muggles for fun!

According to statistics, no fewer than 100 Muggles died at his hands!

He didn't even feel that he had killed anyone, he only felt that there were only a few lives among his men - wizards', and Muggles were not considered human beings in his eyes. "

Zhang Xiao paused, looked at Dumbledore, and asked curiously:

"Professor, it's hard for me to understand this kind of thinking. If it were in the East, I'm afraid he would have been executed on the spot just after the trial. If you don't kill him, are you planning to keep him for Christmas?"

Dumbledore's eyebrows twitched, as if he had never thought that the East, which he thought was gentle, polite, and full of grace, actually had the death penalty, and it was still executed on the spot.

He said slowly: "Zhang, maybe we don't have the right to deprive others of their lives."

Bai Zuo! Bai Zuo appears!

Zhang Xiao shook his head. There was no need to argue about this. He had understood as early as when he was over 30 years old in his previous life that it was difficult to change a person's inherent three views with words.

Instead of arguing now it would be better to just give him this modern criminal code. After giving Dumbledore several legalist works, he fully understood Chinese moral concepts.

There should be kindness, but it is definitely not for scum like this.

The warden did not participate in the discussion, but pointed to the next cell and introduced:

"This guy in there is Rabastan Lestrange!

Together with Barty Crouch Jr., he was sentenced to life in prison for using the Cruciatus Curse on the Longbottoms. "

Zhang Xiao's eyes suddenly narrowed. His mother had said that if he met someone, he would kill them to give them an advantage. She also wanted to capture their souls and let them know what it means to have debts unpaid after death!

Rabastan Lestrange was a haggard man with a pale face. He was turning his head to look at them, with no emotion in his eyes.

"Professor, why do these Death Eaters look so much better than the people below?"

Zhang Xiao stopped and asked thoughtfully.

Dumbledore stared at him with blue eyes and said seriously:

"They are all proficient in black magic. Black magic distorts their senses. The hearts of these Death Eaters are originally full of negative emotions and various twisted desires.

Hope, beauty, happiness, these have long been far away from them.

These people are so filthy that even Dementors are unwilling to suck their emotions and memories."

Zhang Xiao suddenly realized that maybe they were just smelly excrement, and Dementors didn’t want to eat excrement?

Finally the warden stopped in his tracks:

"The person imprisoned here is Sirius Black, a very evil man. Well, since my boss ordered me to come and take him away.

I'm afraid there is a new situation. "

Zhang Xiao and Dumbledore looked inside. The black railings were stained with blood. The gap was not narrow, but a normal person would definitely not be able to get out.

In a dark and damp cell, a very thin man lay in the corner.

Compared to the Death Eaters, his condition was much worse. His black hair was withered, stuck together, and hanging down in strands.

His face was so thin that he looked almost like a skeleton, his eyes were dull, and he was wearing tattered clothes.

There were no shoes on his two feet, just stretched forward.

Holding a straw in his hand, he stared at the small window, not knowing what he was thinking.

This is Blake.

Zhang Xiao sighed, was Blake wrong to believe Peter? No, because the four of them were inseparable, and no one thought about Peter's betrayal.

That's why Blake is so desperate.

The betrayal of a good friend, coupled with the tragic death of another friend.

In the end, Black chose to give up his defense and come to Azkaban to accept self-punishment.

Maybe he heard the noise outside the cell.

Blake turned his head stiffly and looked at the cell. He just stared blankly at the people outside the door.

After a while, he blinked his eyes, became a little more angry, and said in a dry and hoarse voice:

"Dun Dumbledore."

Dumbledore looked at him and motioned to the warden to open the cell door.

The warden shrugged, took out a strange-shaped key from his pocket, and took out a roll of parchment:

"Your Excellency Dumbledore, please sign it."

After he finished signing, he put away the key and used his wand to draw a strange symbol on the lock of the cell.

Dare to love the key or feint?

Why is the Ministry of Magic wary of Laman in strange places?

The cell opened, Dumbledore walked in, and Zhang Xiao hurriedly followed.

Dumbledore was about to speak.

But he saw Zhang Xiao pull out his magic wand: "Clean it up!"

"Clean up!"

"Clean up!"

Dumbledore opened his mouth, but stopped talking.

Zhang Xiao had already started to dig into the bag.

As soon as the small heater was taken out, the whole cell immediately became warm.

Teapot, dessert, a small cup of hot vegetable porridge - this has been prepared long ago.

Before Black and Dumbledore could react.

Blake had already put on a pair of warm and comfortable pure cotton pajamas, and his body had been cleaned by the magic spell.

Sitting on a soft sofa, with a heater next to him, and a bowl of hot vegetable porridge in his hand.

He looked at everything around him blankly, obviously not understanding what was going on.

Zhang Xiao enthusiastically motioned to him to eat quickly:

"Eat, I haven't eaten for a long time and I can't eat meat. I'll feed my stomach with porridge first. I'll treat you to Longyan barbecue when you go out.

Oh, no, no, you have to take a bath first to get rid of your bad luck. "

Dumbledore:.

Warden:

"Okay. Blake, you have something to eat first. Zhang is very considerate."

Dumbledore suddenly smiled. He signaled to Blake to take it easy, and then he conjured up a sofa.

Blake tried hard to turn his already frozen brain, trying to figure out what happened.

But the aroma of green vegetable porridge kept reaching his nose, and he felt that his stomach was making crazy noises.

Involuntary secretion of saliva.

He licked his chapped lips, brought the bowl directly to his mouth, and drank greedily.

A bowl of vegetable porridge was consumed in just a few seconds. Before he could call out for another bowl, Zhang Xiao had already thoughtfully handed over the second bowl.

After three bowls, Zhang Xiao said nothing and gave him a cup of hot water instead.

Blake finally regained some energy. He held the glass and said gratefully:

"Although I don't know who you are, thank you anyway. Thank you very much."

Dumbledore suddenly said:

"He's Chang, one of Harry Potter's best friends."

This sentence was like flipping a switch.

Blake was suddenly stunned, tears instantly filled his eyes. He choked and grabbed Zhang Xiao's arm, and asked urgently:

"Harry. Is Harry okay?"

Zhang Xiao nodded and said with a smile:

"Very good, kind, reliable, full of courage, and the best seeker in Gryffindor House in the past 100 years."

Blake lowered his head tremblingly, tears falling to the ground:

"Really? That's great. That's great. But he is not necessarily the best seeker. James is equally good."

Perhaps because he had been detained for too long, Blake's speech was a little incoherent, but no one cared about this.

Dumbledore tapped the back of his chair with his slender fingers:

"Blake, for more details, I think it would be better to ask Harry in person after you go out. I think he must be very happy.

I'm glad I still have a godfather."

go out? Black touched his eyes randomly with the back of his hand, raised his head, and looked at Dumbledore:

"But me"

Dumbledore took out the still sleeping mouse Scabbers directly from his pocket and sighed softly:

"Peter has been caught, you can end your punishment, Harry needs you!"

Zhang Xiao has never seen anyone so angry.

Blake's whole body was shaking, his eyes became red, his face was extremely ferocious, and even the veins on his neck were bulging from excessive exertion.

He said word for word:

"B-got!"

Then he pounced directly, trying to catch the mouse in Dumbledore's hand.

But it was as if he had hit an invisible wall. He was like crazy, desperately hitting the invisible barrier set up by Dumbledore.

Let out a painful and angry roar:

"Dumbledore, Dumbledore, Dumbledore! Give him to me!

I'm going to kill him, kill him, kill this despicable coward, kill him! "

Soon his voice turned into a tearful plea:

"Please, please Dumbledore, let me kill him. All these years, all these years, I regret every moment, regretting that I let this despicable man escape.

Let me kill him! "

Dumbledore sighed and brushed gently. Black's body trembled and he fell softly.

"Zhang, Black will be involved in the trial next, so you don't have to go. It is an occasion destined to be full of filth and transactions.

For you, it's too early.

But be sure to remember that there is light even in the darkest of times, as long as you light the light in the right way. "

He looked at Zhang Xiao and said softly:

"Zhang, I have many regrets. I hope you can be the light of the future."
