Mysterious Walker at Hogwarts

After making sure everything was safe, Dean put on the clown mask, activated the invisibility function of Prokos robe, and quietly came to the common room.

At this time, after Hermione tried to stop Harry and Ron to no avail, she followed them and climbed out of the door guarded by the Fat Lady's portrait - Dean followed closely. If they found that the door opened by itself but no one was there, they would definitely become suspicious. of.

Dean was very glad that he had made a wise choice. Just as he left the door, Hermione was about to return to the common room. However, at this time, she found that the Fat Lady had gone out to visit late at night, and Hermione was locked out of the common room.

Unsurprisingly, Hermione was furious about this and had a fierce argument with Harry and Ron again, but Dean was not in the mood to listen to their nutritious nonsense.

With only a limited amount of time to be invisible, he must seize the opportunity to cast a combo spell on himself to add a layer of security for his subsequent actions.

Dean turned to a dark corner, first cast a fog spell around himself, then cast a confusion spell on the resulting fog, and finally used a levitation spell to keep the fog wrapped around him.

Dean is very confident in this combination spell that he named "Illusion Mist". The source of his confidence is that this combination spell that Dean recently developed in the Room of Requirement has been certified by the system and has been successfully used in the magic talent system. Added this mantra:

Illusion Mist, a combination spell, consists of a fog spell, a confusion spell, and a levitation spell. It cannot be upgraded. Its effect increases with the level of each spell in the combination spell.Function: Confuse the visual and auditory senses of those who come into contact and even cause hallucinations, thus maximizing the protection of the people inside.

Not long after receiving the Secret Walker badge, Dean successfully found and entered the Room of Requirement. He always found time to practice spells there and try out all his wild ideas.

Illusion Mist is one of the most successful. This combined spell and the Mist state are a perfect match. In critical moments, Dean can enter the Mist state and merge with the Illusion Mist, greatly improving his safety.

After successfully casting the illusion fog, Dean looked much taller in it. He was very satisfied. This was the first time he used the combined spell in actual combat. He just took advantage of tonight's action to test it - even if the effect Not good, Dean can also use the invisibility effect of Prokos robe to escape.

The effect of the Illusion Mist is definitely not as good as the Disguise Spell, but Dean thinks it is enough just in case.

After using the voice-changing spell to make his voice sound hollow, Dean believed that no one could discover his true identity under this heavy cover.

At the door of the common room, Hermione's argument with Harry and Ron about violating school rules was almost over. Dean decided to explore the way for them first and clear away obstacles in advance that might cause the mission to fail.

There is no doubt that the biggest threats to wandering around the castle at night come from Filch and Mrs. Norris. In addition, the occasional ghosts are also a problem, but most ghosts don't mind their own business, so - this task shouldn't be difficult?

Dean soon realized how wrong he was and why the task issued by the system was "Gryffindors".

At a corner not far from the common room, Dean, who was one step ahead, met Neville who was curled up and sleeping.

Dean couldn't help but feel angry and amused. What happened to this unlucky guy?

Dean poked the snoring Neville with his wand - if he continued, he would soon attract Filch or Mrs. Norris. Dean was not sure whether this would lead to the failure of the mission, but it was always better to be prepared. That's right.

"B-Bloody Barrow?" The sleepy-eyed Neville only glanced at Dean, who was surrounded by the mist of illusion, and immediately exclaimed. Fortunately, Dean cast a silencing spell in time to avoid causing a commotion.

Was Neville mistaking him for the most terrifying ghost in the castle, the Bloody Barrow, under the influence of the fog of illusion?

Dean secretly smacked his tongue. It seemed that the illusion fog had a good effect. Neville would never associate Bloody Barrow with Dean.

At this time, Dean heard a movement behind him. It seemed that Harry and others heard the movement, so he quietly left the frightened Neville.

"Neville? Why are you here?" Ron asked in surprise.

"I-I just came back from the school hospital not long ago, but I forgot the new password and have been locked out for several hours!" Neville was so excited that he almost cried. He was so frightened by Dean just now.

"How's your arm?" Harry asked.

"It's okay," Neville said, raising his arm for them to see. "Madam Pomfrey fixed it in the blink of an eye."

"Keep your voice down, Neville. The new password is 'Pig Nose', but it won't work for you now. The Fat Lady is gone somewhere," Hermione warned.

"Okay, Neville, listen, we are going somewhere, see you later." Harry didn't want to involve Neville.

"Don't leave me!" Neville said in horror, "I don't want to stay here alone. The ghost of Bloody Barrow has passed here twice."

All right.Dean, who was hiding in the corner and listening, sighed. No wonder Neville thought he was Bloody Barrow. There was a shadow!

Dean felt very speechless. Neville had a troublesome physique. With his addition, the difficulty of the task increased a lot in disguise.

For the sake of the mission, Dean could only hold his nose and admit it. No wonder the system was so vague when announcing the mission. If Dean knew that Neville was among the people being protected, he would probably give up.

Since it is impossible to change the fact that Neville has joined, the best way to ensure the successful completion of the mission is to cut off the adventure of Harry and others at the source.

Thinking of this, Dean had an idea and planned to go to the Slytherin common room in advance to block Malfoy.

As long as he is dealt with, this so-called duel will naturally end.

After making the decision, Dean immediately took action and ran towards the Slytherin common room, hoping to intercept Malfoy in advance.

Dean was very fast, and from time to time he would make a little noise thoughtfully, attracting the attention of Filch and Mrs. Norris, and preventing Harry and others from being discovered.

Dean's plan seemed to be very successful. Filch and Mrs. Norris were fooled by him. They kept going around the castle but could not catch the troublemaker. Filch and Mrs. Norris were very angry. Wow wow wow.

Until——Dean arrived at the door of the Slytherin common room and found no trace of Malfoy or his two followers along the way.

Dean suddenly realized a possibility, a very high possibility, that Malfoy had no intention of going to the date at all, but had set a trap for Harry.
