"Don't panic!" Professor McGonagall's authoritative voice calmed down the commotion, and she walked quickly to the source of the commotion.

A thin, gray-and-white snake was sitting by the Gryffindor table, its eyes glowing red, and it was spitting messages at the screaming students.

"All petrificus (Petrificus Totalus)" Professor McGonagall waved his wand, and the ash snake that was about to be ejected was fixed in place.

She frowned tightly, then called a few people, and after whispering a few words, she quickly left the auditorium.

Then, the prefects quickly gathered the students above the fifth grade, who were in charge of standing outside the auditorium, while the students of the lower grades were protected in the middle.

"Listen everyone." Sean saw an acquaintance, Charlotte Hawke.

She said to the senior students: "Just use the petrification spell to immobilize those nasty long snakes, don't be afraid."

The prestige of the female chairperson of the student union is quite high. Under her command, the auditorium gradually became orderly.

Sean stood behind the seniors, his wand raised, ready to deal with anyone who slipped through the cracks.

After staying with Hermione for a long time, he has a good grasp of the petrification spell now.

The Fire Ash Snakes were running around in the castle, but they were basically stopped outside the auditorium. The junior students who were protected in the middle even regarded this accident as an interesting story.

But Sean didn't think so. There were already a dozen stiff bodies of ash snakes in front of him. These guys were completely inconsistent with the information in the book.

Ash snakes only have one hour of life. They will try their best to find hidden shadows to lay eggs in this short period of time. Although they are also aggressive to a certain extent, the ultimate mission of the ash snake is to avoid enemies and reproduce. .

But the Fire Ash Snake scurrying into the auditorium acted like a madman. When it saw someone, it rushed towards it, with no intention of avoiding it at all.

This look is very similar to the magical animals in the Forbidden Forest that day. However, the pupils of the Fire Ash Snake were already glowing red, which made him unable to tell the difference.

Coincidentally, a fire ash snake crawled towards Xiao En's angle.

Sean raised his wand and fixed his eyes on the Ash Snake.

Finally, he and the pair of vertical pupils shining with red valleys met each other's eyes.

Didn't feel any emotion... Sean's heart sank, his guess was wrong?

At this time, the ash snake froze for a moment, then quickly turned around and crawled towards the shadow.

efficient? !

So, whether you can feel emotions is also related to the wisdom of magical animals? After all, a fire ash snake that can only survive for an hour has almost only instincts.

In other words, these ash snakes were indeed affected by potions or ancient magic, just like the situation in the Forbidden Forest that day.

Sean raised his head and looked around anxiously, he wanted to tell the professors the news quickly.

But all the professors went to the castle to fight the fire, and only the students were left in the auditorium.

Just as he was frowning, he happened to see a transparent figure.

It was a tall woman in a court gown, Lady Helena, Ravenclaw's ghost.

Sean's eyes lit up, and he squeezed through the crowd to Helena's side.

"Hi, ma'am, can you do me a favor? You just need to find the professors and tell them that the situation of the Ash Snake is the same as that of the Forbidden Forest." He said very fast, the matter is urgent, Xiao Well, I don't have time for those gentlemen's etiquette.

Helena glanced at Sean with her sad eyes, nodded slightly and then walked through the stone wall.

Just when Sean thought he could breathe a sigh of relief, there was an exclamation from the main entrance of the auditorium.

"Merlin's underpants! Why is this ash snake so big?!"

On the stone arch column at the main entrance of the auditorium,

A thick and bloated fire ash snake is coiling down. It is more than ten times larger than ordinary fire ash snakes, and the flashing red light in the pupils almost forms a red line.

"Maybe it's too full." A boy's voice sounded, and then he stood in front and raised his wand.

That was the prefect of Gryffindor, Percy Weasley.

The fire ash snake is obviously a magical creature with very few individual differences... The pensive Sean suddenly opened his eyes wide, and he remembered a story, that is, after he felt that something was wrong with Professor Kettleburn, he asked others about it. past events...

When Armando Dippet was headmaster, the wizarding fairy tale "The Fountain of Fortune" was adapted into a pantomime at Hogwarts. In this show, a fire snake is used as a bloated, blind earthworm, Kettleburn casts the expansion spell on it, and after that...

"Be careful!" Sean in the distance only had time to shout.

"Bang!" The bloated ash snake hovering on the stone pillar suddenly exploded directly, sparks and smoke engulfed Percy.

"No!" The red-haired Weasley twins rushed over, followed by Ron with red eyes.

The students panicked all of a sudden, the smoke cleared, and the devastated Percy fainted on the ground.

"Damn it!" Sean gritted his teeth and ran over, and Fred had already held Percy in his arms.

Half of Percy's body became bloody and bloody, and he seemed to cast a shapeless iron armor spell at the last moment, which barely protected his head.

Fred hugged his brother with one arm, put the other tremblingly on Percy's face, and said in a mournful voice, "Quick, save him!"

Sean pushed away the onlookers, and then took out a bottle of potion from his wallet. This was the healing potion he bought in Diagon Alley, just in case. Although Professor Slughorn said that the effect of this potion is not as outstanding as advertised, it can still slowly heal many types of injuries.

Sean squatted down, held Percy's chin and poured the potion into it.

"How?" The three Weasley brothers asked together, their eyes full of anxiety.

"Only has a certain healing effect." Sean said truthfully. His wallet was only that big. After putting down Gallon and the pistol, there was only room for a bottle of potion. The injuries caused by the snake explosion still require specific treatment methods.

The Weasleys all looked at Percy worriedly.

Charlotte rushed over, and she said in a deep voice, "How's it going?"

"We still need to find Madam Pomfrey." Sean replied.

Charlotte frowned, she walked out of the auditorium with her wand in hand, and backed away after a while.

"There are fire snakes running around outside, and there are no teachers." She said with an ugly expression.

Everyone fell silent, without a teacher, a few seniors alone could not escort Percy.

"No! I must save him!" Fred picked up Percy and was about to go outside.

Charlotte stopped him: "Calm down, to go to the infirmary, you have to go through the tower with the most moving stairs. If you encounter the fire ash snake just now, you will have no way to hide! Wait a minute, professors... it should be very easy." Be back soon!"

"He's dying!" roared Fred, and then his voice trembled again. "He's my brother..."

George kicked Ron back to Harry's side, and stood beside Fred, obviously.

Just when the two sides were at loggerheads, Sean stood up.

"I have a question." Both groups of people looked at him, and Sean shrugged, "Which one of you has a better Flying Curse?"
