Wind and Eagle Wings at Hogwarts

Chapter 380

This Friday night, when Scott left Professor Flitwick's office, the time was approaching curfew, and there was no one in the castle.

Before he reached the bottom of the Ravenclaw tower, he could sense the magic power fluctuation behind the stone wall on the right side of the tower from a distance.

Although it has been a long time since he last perceived Elijah Carro's magic power, and although the characteristics of the other party's magic power in his perception have changed a lot, Scott still recognized it in the fastest time. The identity of that magical power.

After all, Elijah Caro had left a deep impression on him, and he was an enemy he had marked with his heart.

A cautious fellow, Scott never forgot the magic of his enemies.

However, he never expected that he would see this enemy again under such circumstances.

Scott, who was walking in the corridor on the left side of the tower, smiled silently.

I have to say that the timing of Elijah Caro's appearance was a bit too coincidental.

Scott, who had just received the dueling instruction training from Professor Flitwick, was exhausted at the moment, his physical strength and magical power were almost bottomed out, and he was in a very bad state.

It's no secret that Scott often trains with Professor Flitwick these days.

It was precisely because of his own combat power at this time that there was no one in ten, so Scott stopped immediately after sensing Carlo's magic power, and stood behind a thick stone pillar in the corridor.

Physical exhaustion also affected his magic power perception range. At this time, he was only about 200 meters away from the stone wall where Carlo was.

Also, he wasn't sure if Carlo, who was hiding behind the stone wall, had seen him coming from a distance by some means.

No, he quickly determined.

Carlo had indeed seen him, because when he stopped, he could feel that Carlo's magic power started to move, and it was heading towards him with a clear goal.

Judging from the scene, Scott seems to be at a disadvantage at this time.

But Scott didn't panic.

He had fought against Carlo a long time ago, and he knew his level. Judging from the perceived fluctuations in magic power, the other party hadn't made any obvious progress.

Even though he is in a bad state, Scott doesn't need much effort to deal with a wizard like Carlo. Now he has such confidence.

While sensing Carlo's position, Scott took out two bottles of potion from the shapeshifting lizard skin bag, opened it and poured it into his mouth.

Sensing the gradual recovery of vitality in his tired body, Scott casually put the potion bottle back into the leather pouch before taking out his wand.

Without making a sound, the wand in Scott's hand drew a smooth arc in the air.

Thick white smoke spewed out from the wand silently, accumulated and rose from under his feet, and then began to spread rapidly.

It was night, and when the smog in the air became thicker little by little, the visibility became lower and lower.

When the range of smoke covered Carlo's position, his magic power stopped moving, and then began to run in the opposite direction.

Scott smiled silently and started to walk forward.

As he walked, the area shrouded in smoke became wider and wider, and Carlo never ran out of this area.

Scott muffled the sound he was making, and approached Carlo step by step until he could hear the other's gasp.

"S..."

Just as Carlo was about to say something, Scott acted decisively.

"Passed out."

Scott chanted the spell softly, a red light pierced through the smoke, and hit Carlo's head with precision.

Then, he heard the sound of the other party falling to the ground.

To be honest, this result surprised Scott very much.

He has been guarding against the magic items that the other party may carry with him.

It's just that he never expected that Carlo would sneak into Hogwarts to trouble him without any preparation.

Who gave him the courage?
Gryffindor?
Or, is this guy completely insane?
Although judging from the changing magic power fluctuations, Carlo had indeed fainted at the moment, but Scott still held his hand.

He waved his wand again, and a long rope sprang out from his wand, binding Carlo who was lying on the ground.

Then, he used the wind to blow away the nearby smoke.

It was only then that he discovered that Carlo was still wearing an invisibility cloak.

The rope he summoned was only a formless silhouette.

Scott walked not far from Carlo, frowning.

He was thinking about how he should deal with this person.

From the point of view of his heart, he certainly wanted to kill him directly, but this is Hogwarts, and he couldn't guarantee that Carlo's arrival and his behavior would not be noticed by anyone afterwards.

"trouble."

Scott muttered, and kept taking out wooden blocks from the shapeshifting lizard pouch and throwing them on the ground, waving his wand to turn them into mice.

A large group of mice ran quickly on the ground, and quickly gathered on Carlo's body, continuously crawling in and out of his clothes.

Not long after, the two mice worked together to hold Carlo's wand and put it at Scott's feet, and the other mice also ran back.

It seemed that Carlo had nothing else left.

Scott was completely relieved.

He walked to where Carlo was, frowned again, and kicked him.

Ding dong.

The sound of metal falling on the stone slab was weak but crisp, very obvious in this silent night.

Scott wanted to move but it was too late, an exceptionally slender blood-red beam hit his chest abruptly before he could react.

Scott felt a pain in his chest, and his body flew upside down for several meters uncontrollably, falling to the stone slab on the ground.

"Cough, cough, cough..."

He clutched his chest and sat up with some difficulty, staring at Carlo who was still unconscious with an ugly expression.

At this time, there was already a small figure beside Carlo.

It's a house elf.

"Ugh..."

The house-elf whimpered and began casting spells to wake Carlo.

"Wake up, my little master."

A white light shot out from its fingertips, covering Carlo's body.

"Well……"

Carlo quickly made a sound, and he struggled to sit up.

He said hoarsely, "Well done, Tata! Help break the damn rope!"

"Tata will do it right away!" the house elf Tata said softly, "Please keep your voice down, little master, this is Hogwarts! It will be terrible if someone finds out!"

"Then why don't you move faster!" Carlo growled.

"Tata will do it!"

Tata stretched out her finger again and cut the rope on Carlo's body with magic.

Carlo lifted the hood of the invisibility cloak and looked fiercely at Scott who was sitting on the ground.

"Hehe...hehe..." He laughed nervously, like a ghost, "Long time no see, Scott Trollope."

Scott listened to his footsteps, watched as a hand reached out from the cloak, picked up a shiny metal button from the ground, and watched his head "float" some distance, picked up his wand.

"hey-hey."

Carlo suppressed his laughter, walked slowly in front of Scott, and looked down at him.

"How?" Carlo's face was full of malice, "Hey...you lost this time, Trollope."

He waved the hand holding the metal button in Scott's face.

"Want to know what's going on? Hehe..."

He opened his mouth wide and put the button in his mouth with his hands.

"Hey... I put it in my mouth." His voice was a little vague, but his tone was full of complacency.

"I see."

Scott replied calmly, put one hand on the ground, and stood up directly.

"Use yourself as bait, just to sneak attack me with the magic item in your mouth. Well done, Carlo."

"you……"

Carlo's eyes widened, he took a few steps back, and pointed his wand at Scott.

"You...how are you okay?" He couldn't help but shouted.

"You've done a good job, Carol," said Scott. "You're almost there, but I'm lucky this time."

He pointed his wand-holding right hand at Carlo, and with his left he took a golden card from the inner pocket of his robes.

It was the identity card of the Scholars Union.

Scott's state at this time is really not good.

Although he regained some physical strength after drinking the potion, the feeling of exhaustion still poured out of his body in waves.

He didn't show his face, he held the card between two fingers and shook it at Carlo.

"I didn't expect that this thing could help me resist your sudden attack."

As he spoke, he deliberately smiled.

Carlo's eyes widened, almost as big as those of his house-elf, Tata.

"Go," he said loudly, "take me away! Tata!"

"No, little master! There are mice! There are many mice!" Tata responded to him in panic.

A large group of mice are besieging it frantically.

Carlo's face changed, and he quickly reached out to put on the hood of the invisibility cloak, and then disappeared from Scott's sight.

It's just that his magic power is still prominent in Scott's perception.

"Don't worry, Carol." Scott said with a smile, "It's rare that you return to Hogwarts, so don't rush away... armor protection!"

"Go to hell, smash your body to pieces!"

Carlo's crushing spell was blocked by Scott's timely casting of the Iron Armor Curse.

"All petrochemical!"

Scott waved his wand decisively and successfully hit Tata, who was besieged by rats, cutting off Carlo's retreat.

"Die!" Carlo suddenly roared, "Crucio!"

Scott was startled the moment he sensed the extremely malicious magic fluctuations of the Cruciatus Curse.

He dragged some heavy steps, narrowly avoiding the Unforgivable Curse.

But another slender red light beam rushed towards him rapidly.

"Damn it! You should be exhausted!"

Carlo yelled frantically, and activated the button-shaped magic item again.

A crow emerged from the tip of his wand just in time, blocking the red beam.

"Gah!!!"

The crow collided with the red light beam and let out a tragic cry.

Black feathers fluttered, and the crow's body turned black and gray.

"Drill the heart and gouge out the bone!"

Carlo released the Cruciatus Curse again.

At this moment, Scott really wanted to open his mouth to breathe, but he still held back and insisted on taking deep breaths through his nose to adjust his state.

Just as he was about to make a move, a silver-white phoenix suddenly descended from the sky and stood in front of him.

The Cruciatus Curse hit Phoenix, and then refracted on the stone slab on the ground, smashing a slate to pieces.

The semi-illusory body of the silver phoenix only fluctuated for a while, and soon became stable again.

"Sorry, Scott." Dumbledore's voice came from Phoenix's mouth, "It's my fault for letting people sneak into Hogwarts."
