Ravenclaw's Sapphire
Chapter 71 Night of Truth
In a daze, Zooey heard the wind whistling in her ears.She couldn't touch the ground with her limbs, and felt light and floating, and she felt very insecure as she kept dangling around.Her head, chest and back were in pain, and she didn't feel much when she was unconscious, but as soon as she regained consciousness, the sharp pain seemed to tear her body apart, and Zooey unconsciously Squeeze out a moan.
Her memory is still stuck in Professor Lupine's office, she slipped backward uncontrollably because she stepped on something.Then she knocked her head directly on the hard table, and then she lost consciousness.But what is the situation now?Not only is there pain all over the body, but the surrounding environment is obviously not in the castle.
Her thinking ability gradually recovered, and she felt that the robe on her back seemed to be picked up by something, and she was moving at high speed while lying on her stomach in mid-air.First there are large expanses of flat land, and then there are open and clear lakes, reflecting the sometimes bright and sometimes shaded moonlight.I was being dragged forward by someone, and feeling the bumps, Zooey immediately saw a pair of furry forelimbs and sharp claws from the bottom of the field of vision, which only belonged to large beasts, at least absolutely. Creatures that cannot appear outside of the Forbidden Forest.
what happened?The flustered emotions kept growing because of the broken memory. One second, he was still in a narrow but safe room, but the next second he was taken away by wild beasts, and his life was threatened.Zooey was trembling, but she forced herself to calm down: In such a situation, she should not consider other things besides actively saving herself.As her eyes and ears become clearer, she can hear the panting of the beast in a hurry, and the change of the high-speed passing scenery also allows her to have a basic judgment, but this is not good news: if she can't quickly Get out of the grip of this unknown monster, the Forbidden Forest is not a good place to go.
She quietly reached for her robe, trying to get out her wand first.But the bad thing was she couldn't find it, not just the pockets, she'd rummaged everywhere she could come across now, and couldn't find the wand.Perhaps it had fallen somewhere, but without her wand, how was she going to escape from the mouth of the beast?
Just when Zooey was trying to find other ways to escape, she slammed forward and gritted her teeth so that she would not make a sound enough to attract the attention of the beast when she fell freely.She took advantage of the trend and rolled twice on the muddy ground. Fortunately, the ground of the Forbidden Forest was not as hard as it was in winter, and she didn't care that her body was covered with mud and grass leaves.
After she stopped, she lay down on the spot and waited for a while. She could hear the low-pitched roar of the beast and the rustling sound of the sharp claws rubbing against the mud. The sound was very close to her and passed through. The conduction from the ground seemed to have directly penetrated her eardrums and hit her heart directly.But the beast didn't attack again, and its tone gradually became weird and anxious.
Zooey raised her head quietly, her eyes widened in shock, what did she see?A werewolf!There was still a tattered wizard robe hanging on his body, and the robe with many patches looked so familiar. Except for Professor Lupine, probably no other wizard Zoe had ever seen wore such a strange robe. Decent clothing too.
"Oh my god, the professor didn't drink the medicine..." Zoe muttered to himself, the werewolf seemed to be on guard for something, as if he had no energy to spend any more energy on Zoe's side.Its forelimbs were upright, which made it look even taller. The long face with thick hair was constantly swaying from side to side, and the big nose sniffed the residual smell in the air.
It was staring in one direction, its sharp teeth gaping, and its hair all standing on end, which made it look even stronger.The werewolf let out a nervous whine from his throat, took a few steps back, and looked in Zoe's direction again, presumably thinking about whether to treat this girl who smelled so good as a girl before leaving. A plate of Chinese food to satisfy one's hunger.
But when it tentatively took a few steps this way, it stopped.Howling for a long time towards the sky, he ran away into the depths of the Forbidden Forest.Zooey didn't get up from the ground in a daze until the werewolf's footsteps were too far away to be heard.She patted the dirt on her body. Because the Forbidden Forest was almost covered by the luxuriant branches, even the light would be swallowed up in the middle of the night, but the werewolf did not take Zoe to go deeper, and the moonlight tonight was It was so bright, the cloud dissipated again, and the moonlight could faintly see through the gaps in the leaves.
You have to get out of here quickly.Zoe stumbled and took a few steps forward. She felt pain all over her body, and her consciousness was about to faint, but she couldn't do it because of the pain.The Forbidden Forest at night is more gloomy than in the daytime, because it is dead silent, not even the singing of birds can be heard.
Zoe supported the tree trunk, and walked slowly in the direction she predicted when she brought it here.When a person is alone in a quiet place, it is inevitable that he will not be cranky.As for why she fell into the hands of a werewolf as soon as she opened her eyes, if it was Zoe in the past, she would only feel that it was against harmony, but she would not know what happened, just like the second grade.
But even if she knew the reason, she was helpless.Because it seems that the initiative lies with another person in her body, she can only accept it passively, she doesn't even know what Max is doing when using her body, it's just that when you wake up, you can't stop what has happened Even your consciousness jumps time and space, and you are at a loss and at a loss.There will be a second time, a third time, and countless times, and she finally realizes that she must not relax with Max.
"I won't give it to you, I won't give you anything." Zooey gritted her teeth as if swearing, when a gleam of light suddenly appeared in front of her, and she immediately hid behind the tree warily.
"Zoe!" Then she heard Hermione's eager cry, and then the familiar figure held up her wand, and the fluorescent light illuminated Hermione's anxious face, "A little further..." She observed the ground The trace left by the werewolf is planning to continue running forward.
"Hermione." Zooey came out from behind the tree. Hermione's shoulders shook, but she immediately pointed her wand forward, "Zoe!" Well, I thought... are you okay?" She moved closer to check Zoe's body, and Zoe looked at her with a complicated expression.
"How's it going, Hermione?" she asked cautiously, keeping Hermione from being suspicious.
"Mr. Fudge should have gone to inform the professors by now. Harry is hiding under the Whomping Willow. He is really brave...It's my fault, Zoe, for putting you in danger..." Hermione's tone came back There was a bit of crying, she was about to shed all her tears tonight, "If I hadn't asked you to stop Pettigrew, you wouldn't have been attacked by him and passed out, or even been taken as prey by werewolves..."
"It's not your fault, Hermione." Zooey hugged her tightly and murmured, she knew the truth about her situation, "It's really not your fault." But she couldn't tell the truth, she could only be The words choked in his throat.
"Let's go back to the castle first, shall we?" she said to Hermione, who nodded tremblingly and silently wiped away her tears.Zooey held her hand, and Hermione shook it back tightly, and the two even intertwined their fingers, but no one is in the mood to feel anything now.
But they only moved forward a little bit, and worse things happened.Bitter cold fog drifted and diffused, making the vision of the four directions foggy.Many dementors poured out from all directions between the trees. These monsters hid their bodies under the tattered robes, only two withered, scabbed hands were protruding from the edge of the robes. Zoe understood why almost instantly The werewolf Lupine had abandoned her, and he must have sensed something to abandon his prey.
"It's a dementor, Zoe. We have to get out of here quickly..." Hermione took her hand, and the two started running in the woods, but the fog spread too fast, and these dementors had no feet. For the two of them, the complex and criss-crossing Forbidden Forest would hinder their pace, but the dementors didn't need to pay attention to this at all. They just chased the two of them, and they caught up in no time.
When the first dementor stood side by side with the two, the icy fog had already covered the road ahead, and they seemed to be struggling in the severe cold. Hermione's face was pale and bloodless, and she opened her eyes. His eyes widened, he couldn't stop panting, and his speed slowed down.Dementors surrounded the two like ghosts. They floated in the low sky and slid through the mud in the forest. There were at least 100 dementors, and there might even be more coming...
"Hermione, Hermione..." Zooey hated herself. She stayed awake surrounded by dementors, but Hermione's sanity had already begun to blur. Two or three dementors, the fog seemed to be frosting, Hermione groaned in pain, her wand fell aside, the fluorescent light flickered a few times, and then went out.Her happiness was sucked away, and she just kept repeating those terrible things in her mind.
Zoe hugged her and wanted to run away, but the dementors kept following them. They seemed to want to surround them, or they seemed to be just observing curiously... Hermione was speechless, but they didn't Stop shivering.They couldn't escape like this, at least Hermione was like this. Zooey hugged her tightly, hoping to bring her even a little heat, but she could only watch her gradually weaken.
If she wanted to protect the person in her arms, she had to use the only way.Zooey put Hermione down gently, and took off her robe to cover her body. She picked up Hermione's wand, feeling uneasy, but she was determined not to think about what happened after the failure.
"Call God Guard!"
The wand does not respond at all. It is inappropriate to use someone else's wand to cast a spell. Even though most wands will not be rejected because the holder is not the owner they recognize, the wand will choose the user. If the wand If you don't have a good compatibility with wizards, you will have a vague sense of rejection when you cast a spell, or you can't use the power of the spell perfectly.
"Call God Guard!"
The dementors seemed to see that the girl in front of them was no threat to them. They wandered around the two girls like ghosts, but the fog became more condensed.Zoe's hand holding the wand was trembling, "Call God to protect you!" Please, no matter whether God really exists, "Call God to protect you!" At least the girl next to me should not encounter such a thing, "Call God , Call God to protect you!"
But there was no response between the wands. Zooey was out of breath. Her body was already very tired and in pain, but the mental blow was even more fatal.She sobbed, desperate.If she could fight the dementors empty-handed, she would definitely do it, but now she can only watch Hermione get weaker and weaker, and she is about to be helpless. Once the cloud of fear covers her heart, even the incantation Courage is gone.
She felt like a waste, she had received countless times of help and encouragement from Hermione, but she couldn't do anything when she needed help, she could only witness the dementors feeding on Hermione's happiness, bit by bit The strength in her sucked dry.She never wanted to, and it was because of Hermione that she realized that even as a prop or something, she could still be loved.It was because of Hermione that she could muster a little courage to stand up to her mistakes.
Only this person, even if she dies, she doesn't want her to be hurt.She can reach out to the one who gives up, and pull her along the way, and she doesn't want to be guided by her forever, "I don't want...the thing I just wanted to hold, to grab... ...absolutely don't want to be taken away..."
"Call God, guard!"
Hermione's wand trembled slightly, and a faint silver mist came out. Zooey felt that something in her soul was touched, it was still very weak, but this was the shape of her soul, she subconsciously Recognize this.The dementors retreated a little, but they were not far away, but were waiting, but such a weak Patronus, it was impossible to defeat the dementors.
Zooey chanted the mantra again, but only a small amount of silver mist gushed out from the staff.She closed her eyes and it was over.At least it would have been time to use an offensive spell to piss off the dementors and keep them away from Hermione.
Just when she was about to implement the plan, a dazzling light illuminated the whole world from one side of the Forbidden Forest, attracting Zoe's attention. There was a four-legged animal running in the light, it was a silver female The deer galloped gracefully and powerfully through the woods, leaving a silver light behind where it passed. The doe approached the dementors, but the dementors fled away as if they had encountered a natural enemy. The pervading icy mist also disappeared, and Zooey found that Hermione's expression had finally become much softer.
The silver doe stopped beside Zoe and the others, and circled around them a few more times, "Whose patron saint are you?" Zooey asked softly, wanting to reach out to touch the patron saint, but stopped up.The silver doe looked at her with its round eyes, looking so peaceful, turned around and left in the direction it came from.
Her memory is still stuck in Professor Lupine's office, she slipped backward uncontrollably because she stepped on something.Then she knocked her head directly on the hard table, and then she lost consciousness.But what is the situation now?Not only is there pain all over the body, but the surrounding environment is obviously not in the castle.
