Chapter 715: Haste is not enough

Enns is a smart and independent child, and he also has perseverance that most of his peers do not have. Before entering Hogwarts, he could keep moving forward in an ice cave that seemed to be bottomless.

, fought against the darkness and cold, and successfully reached where he needed to go.

And now, after he has also learned many spells beyond his grade level with his wisdom and persistence, as a young wizard, he obviously has more power and means to overcome difficulties than before.

However, even so, it is always too difficult for a child to travel a long distance to a distant destination.

Yes, after consulting some ancient maps and comparing them with modern maps, Enns was convinced that he had found the right place.

The map in the Slytherin Chamber of Secrets marked a certain mountain forest in Albania. And that place was probably where Draco Malfoy was going when he secretly left Hogwarts.

Before deciding to go there, Enns had been troubled. After all, that place was indeed too far for him. Not to mention, he was still a student at Hogwarts, even though he didn't like it very much.

You must obey the rules, but it might be a little crazy to sneak out during school hours.

However, that night, Malfoy took away the opportunity that belonged to him. This kind of thing was much more serious than having a toy taken away by a neighbor's child when he was a child. How could Enns, who had a somewhat domineering temper, swallow it?

This tone?

So, just yesterday afternoon, Enns, like Malfoy who was one step ahead of him, walked out of the school in the crowd. I have to admit, this method is really good, because even though he was still holding an extremely eye-catching flying weapon in his hand,

Broom, no one paid special attention to this little guy who had the courage to sneak out of school.

However, after being far away from the school gate, he couldn't help but feel a little guilty.

In fact, the school rules of Hogwarts are formulated in quite detail, and at first glance they always seem to give people a sense of disorganization. But if you judge the difference based on the severity of the punishment, it can actually be clearly distinguished.

There are two broad categories.

The first category is punishment for school violations. Any violation of rules in school, as long as it does not cause any harm to other people, will be punished fairly lightly.

The second category is punishment for off-campus violations. Since the magical world has experienced numerous turmoils in the past, in order to prevent naughty students from leaving school at will, the school's punishments in this regard are quite severe.

Of course, as of now, even the iron chains that Filch oiled and wiped every day are no longer in use. It can be seen that school rules will be gradually abolished due to the differences in the principal's views and the times.

Therefore, the biggest punishment now is probably to drop out of school.

But the key is, can Enns accept this most likely serious punishment?

After leaving the school gate, Enns was struggling while walking without even using the broom in his hand. He was forced by the pressure of "possible expulsion" to turn back.

He has an obvious desire for Hogwarts and all kinds of wonderful and powerful spells. He doesn't want to be expelled just because of his unwillingness to learn it at the beginning!

However, when he rushed back to the school gate with the broomstick he slipped out of the school, he found that the school gate returning to the castle was blocked by a group of weird-looking guys.

Then, he witnessed Maka's amazing skills with his own eyes among the crowd of onlookers outside the door.

To be honest, he had never thought that a wizard could fight like a powerful warrior from myths and legends.

The terrifying speed that Maka showed at that time, his spell-casting skills of casting an invisible blade to penetrate the heads of six hijackers at the same time, and the powerful magic of releasing cold current to quickly freeze dozens of attackers in the middle of the road, all deeply impressed me.

It was deeply burned into Enns's mind.

If he just studied step by step at Hogwarts, could he become as powerful as Professor MacLean?

Yes, with the help of the Elixir of Fortune, he had experienced the almost desperate suppression of strength on Malfoy twice in succession. But when he was watching Maka's every move outside the school gate, even without the help of the Elixir of Fortune

, he can also clearly feel the absolute gap through the most intuitive way.

Therefore, when Maka took Sarah, who had lost her arm, to the castle, Enns immediately turned around and left. This time, he walked unusually decisively, without even looking back.

Now, a whole night has passed since he officially embarked on the journey. During this night, except for a few times when he was so cold that he had to land to rest, he spent almost all the rest of the night on the broomstick.

.

The straight-line distance from Hogwarts in the north of England to Albania is about 1,500 miles. Even with Harry's Firebolt, the flight time for this journey will be at least ten hours.

As for the broom that Enns is riding on his crotch, it's not even close to that.

This thing was originally a practice broom used by lower-grade students at Hogwarts in flying lessons. The specific model was the Sweeping Star that had been eliminated by the Quidditch team decades ago.

Even though this broom could be said to be popular in the British wizarding world at the time, it was already the so-called tears of the times. With a speed limit of 80 miles per hour, Enns had to spend nearly nineteen hours to reach Albania, and

This doesn’t even include the rest time he needed during the journey!

Right now, Ensi was lying on the broom, looking at the dazzling sun in the distance, with only one thought left in his mind.

"Can you make it?"

At this moment, Malfoy, who was drifting on the Adriatic Sea, showed with his own tragic reality that Enns might not be unable to catch up.

Not to mention whether the current Malfoy is still the same person as he was in the past, at least, he has undoubtedly become more and more dependent on that energy after gaining some kind of power.

With the assistance of such powerful power, he tried to use the Displacement Curse. However, if this spell is taught according to the specific teaching procedures of Hogwarts, you must be seventeen years old before you can sign up to learn it.

.

Perhaps Malfoy had pondered it himself in the collection of books at home, but it was obviously very difficult to use a spell that he had not practiced.

This time, Malfoy can actually be said to be very lucky. Because after he chose Italy, where he had been, as the target of his appearance, he successfully "moved" everyone together.

There is obviously a large offset error in the position, but in short, I did not forget a certain part of my body in the same place. What else can I say if this is not lucky?

Therefore, Malfoy could only roll his dead eyes, cast a head-soaking spell on himself, and let the sea current carry him forward leisurely.

There is no way, the mysterious power in his body is not endless, and the ways he can currently use that power are also very limited. And it depends on his own words... To be honest, he can no longer swim.

"……damn it."

Malfoy's head was covered with a big bubble, and his entire upper body was floating above the sea. Although due to the magic bubble, no matter how big the waves were, he would not drown or suffocate, but the huge waves that hit his head and face still caused him to suffocate every time.

It hit his chest so hard that it hurt.

"It's probably impossible to go back to Hogwarts. Even if I can go back, the risk is too great. If I don't find anything in the deep mountains of Albania... it would be a bit of a loss!"

He was disappearing and reappearing between waves, surrounded by turbulent water. He was tired of seeing this scene. So, while drifting casually for a moment of rest, he couldn't help but think secretly.

Got up.

"No, actually there is no point in staying in Hogwarts now. The closer you are to MacLean, the easier it is to detect traces. Thinking about it this way, it's better to change places..."

Just when Malfoy was thinking about where to go next, he suddenly felt something touching him under his feet. The slippery feeling gave him a bad premonition.

At this moment, he still can't use the power he relies on most smoothly. If he really encounters some ferocious sea creatures, it won't be fun!

Malfoy shook off the thoughts in his mind, turned around and plunged into the sea.

There was plenty of sunshine today, and the azure water looked quite clear. He just looked around and saw a big guy with a mouth full of sharp teeth.

Although he didn't know if the thing that touched his feet just now was that guy, he knew that he seemed to have been targeted.

"It's fatal——"

Malfoy immediately narrowed his eyes, then immediately turned around, threw up his arms, and swam in the opposite direction. It was obvious that he had a wand but the other party had fangs. In a place like this where there is water everywhere, it was really difficult.

It’s still unclear who will die and who will live if we fight for our lives!

It would be the best outcome if the big fish, whose name he didn't even know, could give up his goal.

"No, we have to find a way to get ashore as soon as possible!"

Malfoy's current situation was, of course, something Enns had not expected.

According to Enns' guess, Malfoy should use more powerful magic to greatly shorten the journey to Albania, and it is not impossible to even reach the place directly. In fact, Malfoy did exactly that.

, it’s just that something went wrong in the process.

But just because of such an accident, Enns, who could only think of using a broomstick, had some opportunities to catch up. If Malfoy had followed his original plan, he would have been on the road to a certain place in Albania.

On the deck of the ship in the harbor, you can enjoy the sea breeze leisurely.

"Speaking of which, is there any magic spell that can solve the problem of seasickness?" Enns, flying over the North Sea, couldn't help but wonder as he looked at a passenger ship below.
