Hogwarts lazy snake

Chapter 239 The Burning House

Just when Lupin saw Snape was concentrating on looking at Black, he immediately raised his wand towards Snape. However, Snape was prepared and reacted very quickly, casting a disarming spell and shouting, "Expelliarmus!"

Immediately afterwards, Lupin's wand was hit by Snape's spell, flew out with a "whoosh" and landed in the corner of the room.

Snape said slowly to Lupin: "You don't think I will believe you so easily, Lupin!"

Then Snape saw that Black was about to draw his wand, and immediately cast a cutting spell: "Shatter into pieces", putting his previous threat into action and unleashing a pink and green spell.

After hearing Snape's words, Black and Lupin rushed to both sides without thinking, and then Snape's spell hit the shabby sofa.

Seeing Black dodge away, a trace of regret flashed across Snape's eyes.

Lupin looked at the sofa that had been cut into several pieces and yelled at Snape, "Snape, are you crazy? You almost killed me just now!"

"Lupin, what's the point of following this guy? Thunder Explosion!"

Just after hearing Lupin's words, Snape looked at him with a mocking face. When he was about to speak, a spell was suddenly cast, and at the same time a red light shot towards him.

Snape, who was standing at the door, immediately dodged and moved to the left. The magic hit the wooden door directly. Instantly, the wooden door was blown into pieces, turning into flying wooden spikes accompanied by burning flames.

This caused Snape to hastily step back, using his robe to block his face.

Horn and his friends who had just come out of the Room of Requirement were walking in the corridor, talking about Ron's Patronus. Hermione and Carlotta suddenly saw black smoke rising not far away.

"Look, what's going on over there? Someone isn't setting fire to the forbidden forest." Carlotta said in surprise, looking at the black smoke and flames rising into the sky.

Hermione looked in that direction and suddenly thought of something. She said, "It seems to be in the direction of Hagrid's Hut!"

Attracted by Hermione and Carlotta's words, everyone looked in the direction their fingers pointed. Ron pressed down the chattering Scabbers in his pocket and said softly, "Scabbers, I'll take you to eat something delicious later, don't make a fuss."

Then he touched his stomach and said to everyone, "It seems so. Could it be that Hagrid is cooking the food?"

After Scabbers looked through Ron's fingers and found that there were no other animals around, he stayed quietly in his pocket.

Harry frowned, and a sense of uneasiness surged in his heart: "Something is wrong, we have to go and check it out."

After saying that, he took the lead and ran towards the direction where the black smoke was rising.

"Hey! Wait! How long will it take to walk there? Can't we just fly there?" Horn stopped Harry from his hurry, and took out his own alchemical sedan from the cave.

Harry, Ron and others looked at the strange thing in front of them with curiosity.

Harry asked in confusion: "Horn, what is this? Can it fly?"

"Yeah, this weird big box can fly? Even if it can, it can't hold so many of us." Ron said as he carefully observed the mechanical-style alchemical sedan that Horn took out.

"I know, I've seen it. It's an ancient means of transporting people in Daxia, and it seems to be called a sedan chair." Hermione looked at this strange sedan chair with a cyberpunk style for a long time, and finally remembered that she had seen something similar before.

"What you said doesn't sound magical. You'll know when you go in." Horn pushed Ron in with a smile, then said to Hermione, "Yes, you are right. This is the sedan chair. Hermione, go in."

At the same time, at a window on the eighth floor, Dumbledore was looking at the direction of the billowing smoke. Just as he was about to say what to do, he saw Professor McGonagall walk in and said to Dumbledore anxiously:

"Albus, you saw it too, right? There seemed to be a fight going on there. Do you think there might be criminals wanted by Azkaban? Do you want to go and take a look?"

"I think, Minerva, you could also inform the Aurors in Hogsmeade... Wait, there's no need, Minerva." Dumbledore suddenly caught a glimpse of something flying towards the direction of the fireworks from downstairs, and immediately changed his words.

After Horn and the others got into the sedan, they were surprised to find that the space inside was much more spacious than it looked from the outside, and was decorated with all kinds of flashing magic runes and strange mechanical devices.

Horn gently pressed a button, and the sedan chair slowly rose and flew steadily in the direction of the black smoke.

"Wow, this is amazing!" Ron exclaimed. He curiously touched a glowing crystal inside the sedan, and the crystal immediately emitted a soft light, illuminating the entire interior of the sedan.

Hermione observed the structure of the sedan intently. She found that these seemingly mechanical parts contained complex and exquisite magical principles. "This must be a wonderful invention that combines magic and technology. Horn, where did you get it from?"

Horn smiled mysteriously and did not answer immediately, intending to keep the question in suspense.

However, Carlotta on the side couldn't stand Horn's smugness, so she explained to Hermione, "Hermione, this was made by Horn himself. It can be said that this is his current pinnacle work in the field of alchemy and magic."

When Horn heard Carlotta say this, he quickly said, "Hey, Carlotta, why are you like this!"

In fact, what Carlotta said was true.

Horn initially regarded the sedan as just an ordinary means of transportation. However, as his alchemy skills became more sophisticated, this sedan, which was initially only a means of transportation and a training piece, gradually took on the rudiments of a movable turret and fortress.

"Hey, Horn, this doesn't seem to be Hagrid's hut. It seems to be a little farther away." As the sedan chair got closer and closer to Hagrid's hut, Ron keenly noticed something unusual.

Then, several people approached the window and confirmed that it was indeed the case.

Then, Harry, Ron and the others were eager to join in the fun, and they suggested going to see what was going on. Then they all turned their heads and looked at Horn with their big, curious eyes. After all, Horn was the one controlling the sedan at the moment.

"Okay, okay, Hagrid probably hasn't finished cooking yet, so let's go and take a look. But you can only watch, you can't join in the fun!" Horn looked at this scene, waved his hand helplessly, and agreed to their request.

In fact, Horn also felt that the place looked familiar, and deep down he wanted to go and find out what it was like.

So Horn steered the sedan to drift in the air and flew towards the fireworks. Soon, everyone in the sedan saw the situation below.

"So the house is on fire. I was wondering what was going on." Ron said as he looked at the scene on the ground not far away.

Harry seemed to have discovered something, and suddenly shouted to several people, "No! Ron, look, there seems to be a fight down there!"

At this time, in the open space below the sedan chair, several figures were casting magic fiercely. The light of the spell flickered everywhere, illuminating the surrounding ground that was illuminated red by the flames.

One of the figures looked quite familiar.
