Hogwarts Raven's Claw

Chapter 100 The Third Attack

The next day, Mike became someone who could walk around Hogwarts at will.

This is not because of how powerful Mike is, but because no matter where Mike goes, he will be followed by a group of little wizards of Muggle descent.

After the last incident, the wizards of Muggle descent have completely united together. Just because of Mike's words that unity is strength, they now do everything in groups, and even many half-blood wizards have joined in.

The people who gathered around Mike were undoubtedly the most, and Mike once asked them why they did so. The answer he got was that they were worried that Mike would be retaliated by Slytherin students and Snape because of the last incident, so they would take turns to stay by Mike's side.

At first Mike was a little touched, but after just one morning he was in despair.

Because even when Mike went to the toilet to urinate, there would always be a few male students standing guard next to him. Although they said they would never peek, Mike still noticed their furtive glances and shocked and envious expressions.

Although Mike was very proud of the development of his capital, he was still very annoyed. Mike couldn't drive these people away, after all, they had good intentions.

So Mike had no choice but to apply for a patrol assignment.

Fortunately, Professor Flitwick was a reasonable man. After understanding Mike's situation, he agreed to Mike's request.

Since most of these young wizards of Muggle descent did not join the management team and did not have the right to leave the auditorium, Mike finally had some peace and quiet.

However, when Mike walked out of the auditorium at night to start his first night patrol, an accident happened.

"hiss……"

Mike and the two patrol members who were traveling with him felt a sharp pain in their left chest and they all gasped.

Several people reacted instantly and realized that someone had sounded the alarm.

Mike and the others quickly opened their magic perception, and with the clear vision of magic perception, they clearly sensed a warning brooch in the distance that was constantly emitting intense red light.

"Not good! Go get support!"

The leading team leader rushed forward after giving the order, and Mike and another team member followed without any hesitation.

When Mike and others walked around the corridor and finally arrived at the warning site, they found that other teams had already arrived.

"Hurry and report to Headmaster Dumbledore! Three team members have died here! At the same time, Harry Potter was petrified, and the other two Gryffindor second-year students were slightly injured!" The captain of the team that arrived first shouted to a team member next to him.

The team member who received the order nodded to their captain and ran towards the principal's office, and Mike finally had the opportunity to observe the scene.

There were six people lying on the ground. Hermione and Ron didn't look seriously injured, but they looked terrified and were huddled in the corner crying.

Harry looked exactly like Penelope, with his limbs stiff and lying on the ground in a very strange position. It was obvious that he was petrified. The other three members of the night watch team had a lifeless gray skin, as if all the vitality in their bodies had been sucked away, and it was obvious that they were dead.

Although Hermione and Ron looked miserable, especially Ron, it seemed that what happened before had given him a great shock, so he vomited all over the floor.

But the team members at the scene did not go to comfort them. On the contrary, the captain who gave the order earlier yelled at the two men: "What the hell is going on! Why are you here?"

The other team members around did not stop the captain's inappropriate behavior. After so many days of living together day and night, these night patrol members have already accumulated deep feelings. Now the companion who was playing and joking with you yesterday is lying on the ground without a sound. No one can bear it.

Ron didn't respond to the captain's questioning and just continued to vomit, while Hermione wanted to say something but looked like she was having trouble breathing.

"Hey, Hermione." Mike stepped forward and comforted her, "Don't be nervous, breathe through your nose, yes, that's it, breathe through your nose."

"Yeah... it was Harry. He said he could always hear a voice in the wall saying he wanted to kill the Mudbloods. So... so he used the invisibility cloak to sneak out of the hall with Ron and me to investigate the voice. Later we really encountered the basilisk. Harry was petrified after just one look at it, and we ran away desperately. Later, the night patrol team discovered the abnormality here and came here to check, and the result... the result was... wow..."

She breathed through her nose for a long time as Mike had said, and only after her breathing became steady did she give a brief account of what had happened. By the end of the story, Hermione was already sobbing.

The captain, who was already heartbroken over the death of his teammate, immediately went berserk upon learning that his friend had died as a result of the suicidal actions of Harry and the others.

"You damned brats!"

The captain roared and kicked the crying Hermione, but just as he was about to kick her, his body suddenly froze.

Dumbledore appeared in front of everyone with his wand in hand and said, "Calm down Blaise! What has happened has already happened. Taking your anger out on these children will not bring back the lives of Baker and the others."

The captain of the night patrol named Blaise burst into tears after hearing what Dumbledore said. As soon as Dumbledore lifted the spell, he collapsed to the ground, still muttering: "It's all your fault...Baker, Joshel..."

Dumbledore looked at Blaise, who seemed to have lost all his strength, and several other members of the Night Watch who were equally grief-stricken. Finally, he said to Mike, the only one who was still relatively normal, "Mike, you take care of Blaise and the others here. I will take Harry and the others away first."

Mike was also chilled when he heard that Dumbledore was going to leave the Night Watch members in this dangerous place and take Harry and the others away first, but his expression did not change at all, and he replied expressionlessly: "Yes, Headmaster."

Fortunately, Dumbledore also took away three bodies of the night watchmen when he left. This action made Mike feel a little better, but the deep chill in his eyes could not be wiped away.

After Dumbledore left, Mike became extremely alert and vigilant. According to Mike's understanding of the basilisk, the cunning basilisk was likely to attack them again after seeing Dumbledore leave.

Fortunately, other night patrol teams soon arrived at Mike's place.

Mike told everyone exactly what had happened, including the fact that Dumbledore had left first, without exaggerating anything. Everyone fell into sadness, and most of them did not notice the strangeness of Dumbledore's behavior.

Under their escort, Mike and others returned to the auditorium smoothly.
