Ancient Warlocks at Hogwarts

Now everyone was rushing to the common room of their respective colleges, except Andre and Hermione.

Yes, Hermione, although there was no conflict with Ron in Charms.But in the afternoon Transfiguration class, without Andre's interruption, Hermione's teaching heart burned like a fire, which led to Ron's fierce counterattack.

In addition, Professor McGonagall also taught Ron a lesson about this, which caused him to scold Hermione very loudly after class.So fate once again stubbornly adjusted its curve.

What's worse is that Harry and Ron didn't hear the conversation between Lavender and Parvati this time, so they didn't know that Hermione was not in the common room at the moment, but hiding in the women's bathroom alone crying.

In short, the current situation is that Andre thought Hermione did not quarrel with Ron today, and Harry thought Hermione had returned to the lounge.

In fact, Miss Granger was alone in the women's bathroom waiting for the troll to arrive. It is unknown what would have happened if no one had rescued her.

"what!"

Fortunately, there was a side corridor on the way from the library to the auditorium, and the toilet where Hermione was hiding happened to be at the corner of this side corridor.

When the sharp scream sounded in Andre's ears, he immediately recognized that it was the cry of the little witch. Although it was not clear why Hermione still encountered the troll, he still recognized it for the first time. He rushed to the place where the incident occurred.

A huge figure twelve feet tall appeared in front of Andre. Its gray granite-like skin fully demonstrated that this was the most dangerous mountain monster among the trolls.

The huge body has a head the size of a football, which looks particularly funny.But the thick wooden stick in the hands of this monster makes people have to hold back their ridicule.

"Split into pieces!" Andre used his strongest attack magic at present, but hitting the giant monster with a cutting spell was like using cattail leaves to cut the skin of a wild boar.

The skin of this humanoid magical creature has extremely strong magic resistance, only slightly weaker than xxxxx-level magical animals such as the fire dragon and werewolf. Andre's attack did not even make it turn around.

"Help!" Hermione heard the chanting sound coming from behind the troll, and she shouted excitedly. To the little witch, this troll was more terrifying than the three-headed dog in the corridor on the fourth floor. After all, the troll was There is no iron chain as thick as an arm around his neck.

Andre took a deep breath, pointed his wand at the door of the toilet, and began to perform his best transformation spell.After a moment of distortion, the door turned into a black vine, and then quickly wrapped around one of the troll's thighs.

The troll finally turned its attention from the delicate and delicious little witch. It was very curious about the vines that entangled itself. It first fiddled with it with its hands, then raised the giant stick in its hand and smashed it. Go down.

Upon seeing this, Andre immediately gave up controlling the vines. Transfiguration only changed the appearance of the object, but not the substance. The quality of the door of the public toilet in Hogwarts would definitely not be able to withstand the troll's attack.

But he immediately remembered Ron's move to deal with the troll in the original book. He pointed his wand at the wooden stick in the troll's hand and read loudly: "Wingardim Leviosa!"

The wooden stick did not float, and Andre was stunned for a moment. Obviously without the halo of the protagonist, he could not knock out the troll with a floating spell like Ron. The troll wisely held onto himself this time. weapons.

With a loud noise, the vines wrapped around it shattered instantly and turned into a gate again - just a fragmented version of the gate.

Andre didn't have time to think too much. He used the transformation technique again, turning the marble floor under the troll's feet into a swamp. This move had a miraculous effect. The troll's entire lower body was swallowed by the sudden appearance of the swamp.

It stood angrily on the edge of the mire with one hand, and began to swing the stick desperately with the other hand.The huge force caused earth and rocks to fly around.Andre quickly turned the floor in front of him into a stone wall, thus avoiding being hit by flying rocks.

The transformation technique did have a good practical effect against this magical creature with strong magic resistance. Seeing that the troll was trapped in the mire and there was no threat for the time being, Andre finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He waved his wand again, and part of the mire deformed a second time, turning into sharp stone spears, turning the still struggling troll into a hedgehog.

A shrill whine came from the troll's mouth. Although he couldn't bear it, Andre had no choice. This creature only thought about food and reproduction. It was harder to make peace with it than to ask Snape to let Harry go.

The mire and stone spears that lost their magical blessings returned to their original shape, but the damage caused could not be changed. A huge pit six to seven feet deep was formed on the ground, and the giant monster's body was halfway on the edge of the pit.

Hermione ran over from the side of the fallen troll, and she threw herself into Andre's arms. The two traces of tears were particularly obvious on her little face.

Andre patted Hermione's back comfortingly, and could feel the little witch's body trembling at the moment.Just as he was about to say something, a burst of chaotic footsteps came from behind.

Professor McGonagall took the brunt and walked over quickly, followed closely by Snape.

Following at the end was Quirrell, who was wearing a scarf crookedly. He only glanced at the corpse of the troll on the ground, let out a silent sob, and slumped down in the corner, holding on to his clothes tightly.

Snape bent down to check on the dead troll. Andre could clearly hear the tut-tsk sound coming from his mouth, but from the downward curve of his mouth, it was obvious that he was not praising Andre for a good job.

Professor McGonagall's face was particularly pale, her lips were pursed tightly, and she didn't understand the recklessness of her proud disciple: "What kind of tricks are you playing? Why don't you just stay in the dormitory? Andre, do you want to Do I regret recruiting you into the advanced class?"

"Obviously, our Mr. Ivanov thinks he has the strength to defeat the troll and become the hero of Gryffindor, doesn't he?" Snape said slyly.

"Please don't do this, Professor McGonagall. In fact, Andre is looking for me..." Hermione had blushed and left Andre's arms. She wanted to explain.

But Andre stopped him, and he said to Snape in a very calm tone: "Actually, I just left the library, Professor Snape. I heard Hermione calling for help while passing by this corridor. Since there were no teachers around, I rushed here as soon as possible. Unfortunately, a mountain troll actually appeared in front of me. Although I don’t know why a troll appeared in the safe Hogwarts. This creature, but I guess Gryffindor's house rules did not teach me to give up the lives of my classmates for my own safety. So, as you can see, I defeated it."

This statement obviously moved Professor McGonagall, but Snape still refused: "What about you, Miss Granger, why are you here?"

"I don't think there is a penalty for being late to the Halloween dinner in the school rules, Professor Snape." Andre responded to Snape's question on Hermione's behalf.

"I didn't ask you, Ivanov!" Snape snapped.

Professor McGonagall spoke at the right time. She did not pursue the reason why Hermione appeared here, because indeed, as Andre said, just being late for the Halloween dinner was not a big mistake. On the contrary, she did not discover the troll entering the castle in the first place. The teachers must bear greater responsibility: "Okay, Severus, this matter is over, I will inform Professor Dumbledore of the matter. As for you, Andre, although your behavior is too reckless , but no first-year student can kill a full-grown troll unscathed, so ten points from Gryffindor for your performance."

"Thank you, Professor McGonagall!" A smile finally appeared on Andre's face, and tonight's unexpected incident was finally over.

"If you two don't need to visit Madam Pomfrey, it's best to go back to Gryffindor Tower as soon as possible. The students are all enjoying Halloween dinner in their own houses." Professor McGonagall continued.

Andre grabbed Hermione who was still a little distracted, thanked her again, turned around and walked towards Gryffindor's tower.

On the way, he finally figured out why Hermione didn't have a conflict with Ron after Charms class, but still hid alone in the girls' toilet.

By the time the two of them climbed past the Fat Lady's portrait and into the common room, the dinner had just begun.

The upperclassmen used the transfer spell to transfer the food that had been prepared in the kitchen to the lounge. It is not usually so convenient, but today is a special situation.

Not having to spend Halloween with those pesky Slytherins, even if it wasn't in the Great Hall, wasn't such a bad thing for the Gryffindor students.

Everyone was chatting loudly, except Harry who noticed Andre and Hermione who had just walked in.

"Hey, where have you two been? I was just asking if anyone had seen you." Harry walked up, then looked at Hermione and said apologetically: "I have to say something to you on Ron's behalf. Sorry, you know he was just a little dazed to say that."

Hermione had come to her senses now, and she waved her hand indifferently: "Let him do whatever he wants, I don't care about his words at all now."

Andre blinked and suddenly thought that the scene just now was an important event that changed the relationship between Hermione, Harry, and Ron, but now that neither of them showed up, does that mean that the Iron Triangle team broke up because of his appearance? .

This is really not good news. Harry and Ron can't do much without Hermione's help.

"We'll talk about it later, Harry. I have to eat something first. I'm starving." Andre looked at Hermione who didn't want to talk to Harry. He had a headache. He could only find a way to repair the relationship between them in the future. After all, he still had some plans of his own, and it was impossible to accompany Harry to tinker with Voldemort's affairs every day.

"Oh, okay, you guys eat first." Harry hesitated. He looked back at Ron who was eating happily and didn't know how to persuade Hermione.
