Hogwarts Raven's Claw

Chapter 417: Reentering the Slytherin Common Room

"Franklin, take a few people with you to Hufflepuff to inform the team members there. As for Harry, I remember you have an invisibility cloak, right? Go back to Gryffindor now, take the cloak with you to the professors' offices to check the situation, and notify everyone in Gryffindor by the way. We will gather in the hall!"

Mike stood in the middle of the Ravenclaw common room and gave orders to the students around him. As his orders were issued one after another, Franklin, Harry and others also started to move.

Although the remaining people had not received any orders, they were also extremely excited and could hardly wait to settle accounts with the Slytherins. Many of them were not even members of the army or the mutual aid society.

But this is the power of belief. In the eyes of these classmates, Mike is no longer a simple student. He is more like a hero who is the same age as them or even younger than them.

Everyone had an inexplicable confidence in his words.

Of course, the reason why those students who were not members of the mutual aid society or the army also wanted to participate in this action, in addition to the beliefs mentioned above, was also largely due to the herd mentality.

As a result, a group of students who had been intimidated by the Slytherins not long ago and dared not even to leave the common room became excited less than half an hour after Mike returned, and were ready to settle the score with the Slytherins!
Looking at these people, the corners of Mike's mouth also curled up.

It is an absolute truth that uniting the majority to defeat a small group will always lead to victory. Even though Slytherin students are generally stronger than students from other colleges, they will definitely lose miserably in a battle with such a huge disparity in numbers!

Thinking of this, Mike once again gave a pre-war inspirational speech. He wanted to make full use of this waiting time to raise these people's morale to an exaggerated level!

As a result, there is a high possibility that some of these inexperienced underage students will act without knowing the severity of the consequences, thus causing some irreversible bad consequences.

And this is what Mike wants to see.

Because in this way, Slytherin and the other three major houses would be completely on opposite sides, with no room for redemption!

……

Franklin and Harry moved quickly, and they returned when Mike was only halfway through his speech.

At this time, most of the students surrounding Mike were already steaming from the stimulation of Mike's speech. They were panting, staring at Harry, Franklin and others with red eyes, which made the latter feel a little puzzled.

"Mike, I've contacted the Hufflepuff team members, and they are now heading towards the hall." Franklin said calmly, "As expected, some Slytherin students even blocked the entrance of Hufflepuff. My God, those idiots only know how to bully the weak and fear the strong! As soon as we approached and took out our wands, they all scattered!"

Mike nodded with satisfaction, then looked at Harry beside him.

But Harry was a little scared at this time. He looked at Mike and the ferocious Ravenclaws beside him with a vague look. After a while, he stammered:

"Well, I didn't encounter any Slytherin here. Oh! By the way, I have also informed the Gryffindor team members, but the others also said they would follow us after hearing that we were going to deal with Slytherin. If nothing unexpected happens, they have already set off.

As for the professors, I'm sorry, Mike. I didn't go into the office at all. Almost all the professors' offices, including Professor Flitwick and Professor McGonagall, were locked. No one answered us when we knocked on the door. But the strange thing is that every professor's office was very noisy. I seemed to hear a lot of people yelling in there, as if they were arguing! I don't know..."

Perhaps because he was too nervous, Harry's words were long-winded and disorganized, so Mike waved his hand to interrupt him after understanding the basic information.

Anyway, he just wanted to know the professors' status. Since the professors were busy now, he had nothing to worry about.

As for whether there will be punishment afterwards?
Are you kidding me? Do you think the saying "the law does not punish the masses" is just a saying? What's more, they are right this time!

So, Mike turned his head and looked at the other students with a smile, opened his arms and said:

"Well, now that our friends have already set off, we can't fall behind! Everyone, bring your wands, and let's go to the Great Hall to settle accounts with those Slytherins!"

"Let's settle accounts with the Slytherins!"
The owl outside the window of Ravenclaw Tower was almost shaken by the uniform roars. When the unlucky owl flew back to the windowsill and turned its head to look inside the window curiously, it only saw a large group of people walking towards the exit led by the boy named Mike!

……

Everyone walked very fast due to the excitement and soon they arrived at the auditorium.

It was only when they arrived at their destination that they discovered that the 'alliance' of Hufflepuff and Gryffindor had already arrived there first.

They had even subdued a dozen Slytherins and were beating them 'brutally'.

Surprisingly, the most brutal ones were a few senior Hufflepuff students. Looking at their grimacing expressions and the creaking punches and kicks that made gusts of wind, it was hard for everyone in Ravenclaw to imagine that these people had been bullied by a mere handful of Slytherins at the entrance of the college lounge not long ago.

At this time, everyone in the auditorium also discovered Mike and others. They instinctively stopped what they were doing and made way for Mike to walk to the center of the crowd.

It was not until he stood in front of those Slytherins that Mike recognized their identities. They were the same Slytherins who had humiliated Filch in the hall before. However, they had been beaten beyond recognition at this time. Mike was sure that even if their mothers came, they might not be able to recognize them. Mike was able to recognize them all because of the special shape of the wand of the leader.

However, this wand, which was shaped like a male's thing, had already been broken into two halves by the angry Hufflepuffs and could no longer be used.

"Mike, what should we do next?"

Franklin asked loudly, and as soon as he spoke, everyone around him pricked up their ears and listened carefully.

Most of them were expecting Mike to give the order to continue the attack, because just a dozen Slytherins could not satisfy their desire to vent after being suppressed for a whole year!
As if he had seen through the thoughts of these people, Mike gently kicked the Slytherin and said slowly amid the latter's weak screams:
"I heard that they even blocked the Hufflepuff common room. In that case, why don't we go to the Slytherin common room as well? I believe everyone here must be very curious about the Slytherin common room, right?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone around was stunned, with a look of shock on their faces. Even the Slytherins under Mike's feet raised their heads while enduring the pain, and cast an incredible look at Mike with difficulty.

Immediately afterwards, waves of cheers and applause broke out from the crowd around. Everyone shouted excitedly, as if they couldn't wait to visit the Slytherin common room.

The one who was shouting the loudest in the crowd was Lee Jordan, George and Fred's good friend from Gryffindor College. He even climbed onto the backs of several classmates, and stood at the highest point, shouting desperately, his dark face flushed.

In comparison, the voice of Hufflepuff house was much weaker at this time, and their numbers were far less than Gryffindor. However, Mike was not surprised. After all, Hufflepuff was not a warlike house. To be honest, he was already very satisfied that there were Hufflepuffs who were not members of the army or the mutual aid society who were willing to follow him.

"Take those Slytherins and let's go!"

As Mike raised his arm and called out, several students behind him immediately lifted up the Slytherins on the ground, cheered and followed Mike, heading towards the basement where the Slytherin lounge was!
The Slytherins were struggling desperately at this moment. They were not fools and knew very well that the reason why Mike brought them along was to ask them to help open the door of the Slytherin common room.

However, at this time, all of their wands had been broken. After losing their magic power, they completely lost the ability to resist and could only be easily tied up and taken to the basement.

Glancing at the wet wall in front of him, Mike squatted down and said to the leading Slytherin with a warm smile:
"Tell me, what's the password?"

Mike's voice was like the whisper of a devil, lingering in the Slytherin's ears.

If possible, he really wanted to tell the password directly to Mike.

But unfortunately, this is absolutely not possible!
Because he's a Slytherin!
In the eyes of others, Slytherins may all be a group of cunning, vicious and unscrupulous despicable villains, but only they themselves know that the most core and precious quality of Slytherin is nobility!
This nobility cannot be desecrated!
Thinking of this, the Slytherin who was half-kneeling on the ground, covered with scars and still trembling, forced a smile that was uglier than crying to Mike, and said tremblingly:

"The password is: 'I'm a dirty mudblood!'"

Mike's smile disappeared in an instant. The classmates who were still laughing and joking beside him also stopped talking. The temperature around them seemed to drop several degrees in an instant, causing countless cold sweats to appear on the Slytherin's forehead.

The next moment, a pitch-black wand was pressed against his brow, and with a flash of white light, the tenacious Slytherin disappeared, replaced by a slimy slug.

Looking at the slug still struggling and twisting on the ground, the students around all burst into laughter.

The remaining Slytherins were shaking even more violently.

Mike held the wand and slowly walked to the next Slytherin. This time he didn't say much nonsense, but directly put the blackthorn wand against the man's brow, and then slowly asked:

"Password?"

Although Mike didn't use much force, the special stinging feeling of having a foreign object pressed against his forehead still made the man tremble.

Unfortunately, even though he was threatened like this, he was still unwilling to reveal any information about the password.

He even closed his eyes, as if he was ready to meet his fate!
But what's the use of this?
Looking at the Slytherin with his eyes closed in front of him, Mike chuckled and turned to look at Zhou Hong beside him.

The latter responded with a strange smile and said loudly:
"The password is 'Night is Coming'."

The Slytherin pointed at by the wand suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Mike and Zhou Hong in disbelief. After a while, he screamed:

"You used Legilimency on me! Merlin's beard! You are breaking the law, I am reporting you to the Ministry of Magic! You are all going to Azkaban!"

Mike and the others looked at each other and laughed.

Of course they knew that using the Imperius Curse and Legilimency on people at will was illegal, so in order to avoid possible troubles later, they let Zhou Hong use his innate abilities on him.

You know, although Legilimency is against the law, the law does not prohibit others from using their talents!

Thinking of this, Mike knocked the Slytherin who was still cursing unconscious, then quickly walked to the damp wall and said loudly:
"Night is coming!"

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sound of a mechanism turning in the wall, and then the wall slowly opened, revealing the brightly lit Slytherin lounge inside!

This was Mike's second time in the Slytherin common room. Compared to the last time, the furnishings here had not changed much, except that it was obvious that a banquet was being held here at this moment.

There were dozens of Slytherins sitting around a long table, talking and laughing while eating. Mike also found some wine on their table that he had never seen before. And just by looking at the bottles, he knew that the wine was very valuable!
The opening of the door obviously startled several Slytherins. They instinctively turned their heads to look at the door, and then froze in place.

"Are you holding a celebration banquet for the return of the mysterious man?" Mike smiled and walked slowly forward, "It looks like we've arrived at the right time!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of the people behind Mike as they looked at the Slytherins changed instantly.

However, the drunken Slytherins obviously didn't notice the faces of the people on the other side. One of the red-faced Slytherins stood up and pointed at Mike and the others and shouted:

"How did you get in here, you Mudbloods? Get out of here now! Or I will..."

His words came to an abrupt halt as a fiery red spell hit his mouth straight in the process, breaking all of his neat white teeth and knocking him flying.

This sudden change made the Slytherins stunned again, and Mike was also a little confused, because this disarming spell was not cast by him!
