Mastering Thunder from Hogwarts

"no problem!"

Everyone present nodded. They had long been unhappy with Lockhart, and now they were even more indignant after learning that he was a liar.

As soon as Anduin left, Hermione in the crowd pulled Ron and Harry and ran outside.

"Come on, we have to seize the opportunity to survey the scene!" Hermione reminded several people in a low voice as she ran, "The monster hasn't been gone for too long. If we chase it closely, we might be able to catch it!"

"Are you so anxious?" Ron was staggered by Hermione and almost fell on the spot.

"It's not your fault!" Hermione rolled her eyes at him, "How dare you use that kind of large-scale high-risk spell during a duel. I was almost injured by you."

"Didn't I just learn something new and want to show it to everyone?" Ron curled his lips and quibbled.

"I see you are showing how to be deducted a hundred points at once!" Hermione's tone showed the essence of a poisonous snake, and she kept urging, "Hurry up, don't let that guy get away."

"But I can feel that the other party is no longer on this level, and I can't hear its voice anymore!" Harry also felt that Hermione was acting too eagerly, so he quickly tried to persuade her.

"What?" Hermione suddenly stopped when she heard this, "Can you hear that monster's voice?"

Harry also realized at this time that he seemed to have let something slip just now, but he was unwilling to deceive a few people because of it, so he admitted in a low voice, "Well, I could hear the whisper of the monster before, but because it was too far away

, can’t hear exactly what it’s saying.”

"But now the sound has completely disappeared, which means the other party should be far away from us."

"ah?"

At this time, not only Hermione, but also Ron and Neville looked at him in surprise.

"You mean you can understand the language of that monster, are you kidding me?"

"No!" Hermione suddenly woke up, "It is indeed possible. I know that some wizards have certain special talents and can talk to specific creatures, such as snakes!"

"You also know Snake's accent?" Harry was delighted when he heard this. He didn't expect anyone besides Anduin to recognize his ability.

"You know how to speak like a snake?" Ron looked at the other party in shock, "This is a special ability that only dark wizards have!"

Obviously Ron also knew the old talk, but he was not as smart as Hermione, so he didn't wake up until Harry changed his mind and admitted it.

"That's just prejudice!" Harry quickly argued, "Uncle Wilson said that snake talk is just a talent and cannot be used to judge a wizard's character."

"Are you really good at talking like a snake? And Uncle Wilson also knows it?" Even Neville's eyes widened in surprise at this time.

They, children of wizard families, have heard their parents talk about the terrifying wizards who are proficient in Snake Tune since they were young, so they have an instinctive fear of this ability.

On the contrary, Hermione, who was born as a Muggle, had no idea about this and just asked excitedly, "Since you can speak like a snake and can still hear the monster's voice, does it mean that the other party is also a snake creature?"

Hermione's idea suddenly woke up a few people, and even Harry suddenly realized, "Yes! I didn't react at all, but before I could only hear some faint murmurs, I can't be sure it must be

Snake creature?"

"No, my brother Bill has mentioned before that snakes can only respond to the sounds of snake creatures." Ron, a wizard with a lot of common sense, stood up and explained.

"In other words, that monster is basically a snake? Then if we follow this clue to investigate, can we get the result soon?" Neville raised his voice excitedly.

"Shh, don't let others hear it!" Hermione gave Neville a stern look, "But there are many magical animals like snakes. We have to check the information carefully to confirm its identity."

"I'll leave this kind of professional issue to you!" Ron smiled and waved his hand, "The three of us are still responsible for surveying the scene and trying to track its trajectory. After all, it's useless just to know the other party's identity.

You have to lock the location of the monster."

"Remember to give priority to tracking spells. If you find traces of monsters at the scene, such as hair, scales, saliva, etc., remember to collect them. This is the best medium for casting tracking spells." Hermione also suggested at this time.

"It's a pity that we don't have tracking equipment. It would be great if we could have [tracing glasses] like those used by Aurors!" Ron shook his head with a pity.

"It's okay, we have other ways." Harry added, "We can check more in the school and see if I can hear it again."

"It's a pity that this is the first time I heard the other party's voice, otherwise I should have realized the identity of the monster long ago."

"The professor didn't post a reward before, right?" Neville shrugged indifferently, "And earlier, we were all frightened by the rumors of the secret room and didn't dare to act casually. How dare you look for monsters so blatantly this morning?"

"Indeed." Ron nodded in agreement. Then when he looked at Harry, he seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly widened his eyes and asked, "By the way, if you speak like a snake, then we will lose the first Battlefield dungeon.

Is it also because of this?”

A few people had focused their attention on the monster in the Chamber of Secrets before, and they didn't bother with Harry's snake talk for long. After a while, they gradually came to their senses.

"Uh, this..." Seeing that his little secret had been discovered, Harry scratched his head in embarrassment and responded hesitantly, "I didn't expect those exploding snakes to understand the old snake accent."

"Okay, so it turns out that we lost because of you!" Ron laughed and scolded and strangled Harry's neck. Hermione on the side also cast an unkind look at him.

Next, the foursome started their investigation work by joking with each other. At the same time, Harry did not expect that his snake tongue would be used for conducting searches.

Anduin, at this time, carried Lockhart and broke directly into the opponent's Defense Against the Dark Arts office.

Before handing Lockhart over to Dumbledore and the Ministry of Magic, Anduin had to interrogate him.

Among the heroic deeds this guy heard from others, there are a lot of details about dealing with dark magical creatures during adventures. This cannot be recorded by memory. Lockhart must have kept the research data of those wizards here.

"Get up, don't pretend to be fainted here with me." Anduin threw Lockhart to the ground and shouted at him coldly.

Lockhart trembled when he heard this. He had originally thought of pretending to be fainted in the lake to see if he could take advantage of the chaos to escape. Who would have thought that Anduin would have discovered him long ago.

In response to this, he could only get up timidly and did not continue to pretend. Of course, this was not because he didn't want to, but because he really didn't dare.

"Anduin!" Lockhart begged with a grimace, "Please let me go. As long as you don't report me to the Ministry of Magic, I'm willing to do anything, such as taking shares in Bird's Snake Egg Yolk Shampoo, and...

I can give you all the royalties from those books!"

Lockhart is now extremely scared. If others discover his secret, he may try to use his most skilled Oblivion Curse to resist.

But Anduin?

Lockhart is just bold, which does not mean he is a fool. With his previously deceived identity, he has also come into contact with some wizards of high status.

From their mouths, Lockhart had heard many rumors related to Anduin. This young wizard was not just the owner of Silver Flash Trading Company.

The opponent's true strength and the battles he has experienced are legendary.

So he racked his brains and found that he seemed to have no other solution except begging for mercy.

But Anduin smiled coldly after hearing Lockhart's begging for mercy. He had no interest in this kind of guy who had no bottom line, no talent, and only knew how to brag.

Anduin had had the idea of ​​taking him under his wing before, but Lockhart was a pure narcissist, and his mind was all about deceiving people. Neither his loyalty nor his value were guaranteed.

So he just glared at Lockhart coldly, "Whether I let you go or not depends on your performance. Now tell me everything you have done after graduation. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude."

"Yes, yes!" Faced with Anduin's eyes that were ready to kill at any moment, Lockhart was almost scared to the point of peeing, how could he dare to refuse.

Immediately, Lockhart recounted everything he had done and all his deception experiences, including an old Armenian wizard and a witch with a hairy chin.

When Lockhart first did this, he was still a little nervous and uneasy, but after gaining wealth and fame, he gradually became addicted to it, and eventually his life turned into an illusion made entirely of lies.

among.

In fact, when he graduated, he could only be considered vain and narcissistic at best, and his own magic level was not bad. After all, he was also a student who graduated from Ravenclaw.

But after getting used to taking shortcuts, Lockhart became more and more fond of using deception to benefit himself, and his spell-casting skills plummeted. Now, except for the Oblivion Curse, he has completely forgotten all other spells.

Already.

After listening to Lockhart's statement, Anduin knew that this guy was hopeless. He had changed from a narcissist to a successful and pure liar.

Then he asked the other party to hand over the information that he had defrauded from wizards from all over the world. Naturally, Lockhart did not dare not to obey.

Only after reading the thick pile of information, letters and personal notes did Anduin fully understand how many people Lockhart had killed.

This guy probably defrauded more things from other wizards than the books he published, and maybe some of them are still unpublished.

After a brief review, Anduin became more confident in his judgment. Indeed, these materials included some of his own manuscripts.

Anduin saw the painstaking efforts of many wizards in their lifetime research. One of them, an old wizard in Armenia, actually developed a spell that could transform werewolves.

It also includes special pest control spells that can repel pest infestations for a long time, protection spells that can prevent dark magic creatures from getting close, cold protection spells that can withstand extreme cold environments, etc.

In addition to magic spells, these materials also record the lives and experiences of a large number of wizards, including the experiences they have summarized throughout their lives.

For example, how to tell time in the wild, obtain food and water sources without using magic, how to determine the magical animals wandering around the camp outdoors, etc.

They are all very useful life and adventure experiences, many of which have benefited Anduin a lot.

It can be said that those wizards who were plagiarized by Lockhart were all genuine high-level scholars or adventurers.

But now, their life's accumulation has been stolen so easily by a liar.

Seeing this, Anduin, who was also a scholar, looked at Lockhart with an even more unkind look. He understood very well how valuable this knowledge was to a wizard.

"When you were in contact with those wizards, did you ever hear them mention a place where you would feel scared after staying for a long time?"

Anduin has made up his mind to take care of Lockhart, and Azkaban will be his final destination.

But before handing the other party over to the Ministry of Magic, in the spirit of making the best use of everything, Anduin casually asked a question related to Hypor.

Of course, he didn't have much hope for this. He had been searching for so long and still had no clues. What could a liar on the other side know?

But Lockhart's next answer surprised Anduin.

"A place that would make people feel frightened? I really want to hear it mentioned by a wizard adventurer." Lockhart didn't know why Andu asked about this, but now he just wanted to cooperate with the other party, so that maybe he could

Let him let him go.

"Really?" Anduin was slightly startled. He originally just asked casually in a formulaic manner. Who would have thought that there would really be a clue.

Then Anduin's expression became serious, "Where is it? Did that wizard mention it to you again?"

"Well..." Lockhart's own memory was not very strong. After recalling it for a moment, he replied uncertainly, "She is a witch with a hairy chin. When I was communicating with her

, the other party said that he had a similar feeling while traveling on an ice sheet that resembled a small island somewhere in northern Russia.”

"At the time, she thought she had encountered a migrating creature such as a migrating bird, but later found out that it was not the case. In view of her sensitivity as an adventurer, she did not stay in that area any longer and returned soon."

"During the conversation, she told me that this might also be an hallucination. After all, in that extreme environment, many perceptions are wrong."

Lockhart recalled the witch's words and repeated them carefully.

Although Lockhart's words were ambiguous, Anduin immediately became alert when he heard the location described by the other party.

Northern Russia? Island-like ice fields?

It seems to be the eastern part of Northern Europe, which actually corresponds to the information Anduin had detected before.

Thinking of this, Anduin's look at Lockhart suddenly became strange.

The latest first release.
