The track of dawn in the world of American manga

Chapter 15 15. Hey, Potter, this thing is much easier to use than a wand!

In front of the endless Forbidden Forest in the ruins of Hogwarts, not far from Hagrid's hut, the zombie Fang seems to be completely dead.

But in fact, its claws were chopped off and its belly was blown to pieces. The zombie's vitality is not that fragile.

In the background of the combination of these things, Old K held a tattered branch hat in his hand and waited for Mason's answer.

The cunning old hunter also took the time to glance at the golden bomb remote control in his hand. The red dot representing Mason was right in front of him, exactly the same as Mason's position at this time.

The bomb is still on him.

very good.

"I've been persuading myself that maybe it would be a good choice to 'start a business' with you."

Mason was holding his explosive shotgun named "Old K". He stared at the old hunter and ignored the indifferent Bomb Girl behind him, and said:

"But unfortunately, I haven't been able to convince myself until now, maybe because I don't like being invited by others in a unique way of planting bombs.

I want to quit your team, old K."

The young man made no excuses and no delays.

He said very directly:

"I have no interest in the damn Society of the Stars. I want to leave this damn world and go back to Gotham to live the new life I just earned for myself."

Old K's action of playing with the branch hat suddenly stopped.

He raised his head, moved the pipe at the corner of his mouth and blew out a wisp of smoke:

"Do you know what you are talking about? Are you on drugs too? I thought you would be more sensible."

"We can get together and part ways, say goodbye and still be friends in the future."

Mason said helplessly:

"The hat in your hand is probably the most valuable thing here. It is enough to repay the favor I owe you."

"it's a pity."

Old K discerned Mason's expression.

After confirming that the young man was not joking, the light in his eyes turned cold and he sighed and said:

"I really like you, Mason, but there's no such thing as 'quit' in this business. Either die or keep going. You made the wrong choice.

May your death please the dark stars and light our way forward."

"Pa"

After the old hunter recited his eulogy, he pressed the explosion button on the remote control in his hand, and a muffled sound of black smoke and a shrill scream rose in Mason's arms.

As Old K's expression changed slightly, the birdcage ornament emitting black smoke in the young man's arms fell to the ground. The zombie tiger cat kept in it had its intestines pierced to pieces, and its entire body was blown open and almost broken into pieces.

Two cuts.

"boom"

Mason fell forward and pressed the tiny remote control hidden in his hand.

Two engineering bombs hidden in the ground behind him exploded instantly, throwing the bomb girl who raised her crossbow to shoot away.

The ear-piercing sound of gunshots suddenly started. Old K, who swung his sword and ducked in front of Mason, was forced back by the hot steel balls fired by the double-barreled hand cannon with three rapid-fire shots, but he ducked to the young man's side in the next moment.

The one-handed sword with the golden handle in his hand shone with arc light, and the young man shrouded in arc light seemed to have been hit by a flash bomb.

I lost my vision in an instant and felt like a dog was going blind.

But at the same time, he also activated Count Dizzy's intracranial disruptor tied to his wrist. The electromagnetic waves that destroyed the senses rushed around, allowing Old K to deflect the sword blade that was slashing at Mason's neck and hit the young man.

on people's shoulders.

The sharp sword left blood marks and Mason screamed. He took out an engineering bomb from his pocket and threw it out. While crawling out, he twisted the last swallow potion and poured it into his mouth.

There's something weird about this sword!

The flash of light when it is swung can temporarily blind people.

However, the relics left by Earl Dizzy were quite useful. Old K, who was caught off guard and was plotted against, felt like the world was spinning, just like the discomfort caused by motion sickness.

The cautious hunter did not rush forward rashly, but stayed where he was, took out a small bottle of potion and poured it into his mouth, which instantly relieved the uncomfortable dizziness.

Mason's blindness was restored after a few seconds.

He got up in disgrace, put his gun behind his back, and took the Penguin's armed umbrella in his hand. Just as the explosive woman jumped up with disheveled hair, grabbed the crossbow, and shot two arrows at him.

The armed umbrella opens over there.

The moment the hand crossbow arrow hit and was bounced off the umbrella, the energy injected into it exploded, blowing both Mason and the umbrella away. When he saw Old K flashing towards Mason with his sword, the embarrassed face of the explosion woman

There aren't many angry expressions either.

There is no deep grudge between her and Mason, but the latter used her as bait to attract zombies at the station and almost shot her to death on the magic platform.

Of course Mason also saved her from a zombie cat.

So it was enough for her to reach this point and didn't step forward to hit the target.

Betty Susie believed that she was still a person who had a clear sense of grudges. Besides, Old K would do the rest.

But just when Bomb Girl put down her crossbow and was about to appreciate Mason Cooper's death moment, a breeze suddenly blew behind her, causing the girl to move her body uncomfortably.

She didn't feel anything was wrong.

But Old K, who was walking toward Mason with a sword in hand, ready to execute the rebellious young man, suddenly stopped at this moment.

The old hunter's nose moved.

As he swung his sword to shatter the bullets fired by Mason, he suddenly looked back at the explosive woman and shouted to her:

"Hide quickly! There is something behind you!"

"Um?"

The explosive girl was startled and subconsciously ran forward and took another look.

There was clearly nothing behind her.

"puff"

At this moment, sharp pain without warning surged into Betty Susie's heart along with the sound of sharp claws digging into flesh.

The running Explosive Girl felt like her heart was pierced from behind by an invisible ghost. The ghost came silently and crushed the blonde's heart before she felt any pain.

Large mouthfuls of blood poured out from Betty's plump chest.

Her eyes were blank, as if she had returned to the battlefield in Afghanistan where artillery fire was everywhere. She knew that she would die somewhere, but she did not expect that death would come so suddenly.

At the end of her life, the anger and resentment stemming from death made Explosive Woman decide to make her death more "hot".

Under the wide-eyed gazes of Old K and Mason, a chaotic and dangerous energy pulsed in Betty Susie's body. It was her superpower that wanted to complete its curtain call at the moment of death.

Old K flashed out with a whoosh, and Mason turned his head and threw himself forward with all his strength.

There was a loud bang.

A small mushroom cloud exploded in place.

Explosive Girl can make everything she touches explode, and this time she chose to detonate her own power, incinerating almost everything within 50 meters.

Mason was carried several meters away by the shock wave. When he landed, his vision went dark, as if a heavy hammer hit his chest, making it difficult for him to breathe.

But at least he survived.

Old K on the other side appeared on the trunk of a tree, holding both blades and looking indifferently at the burning crater left behind after the death of the explosive girl. At this moment, his eyes turned into weird yellow cat pupils and exuded...

There was a faint light, and the nose was constantly twitching. From a glance, he was searching for enemies in a large area.

"Mason, that thing is still there!"

A few seconds later, Old K shouted from the tree trunk to the young man below who was trying to run:

"It can be invisible, no, it's worse than that, it's a very clever aura masking! It's probably a magical effect, even my hunter senses can't find it.

You can run.

But if I unfortunately die here, you will be next.

I don’t think it will let go of every piece of fresh flesh and blood, and I am absolutely sure that I will definitely be the last one to die among the three of us, do you want to take a gamble?”

"Can such a powerful explosion not kill it?"

Mason stopped as his heart moved, looked back at the old hunter on the tree trunk, and said:

"You're kidding, right?"

"It was injured, but it died a long time ago. It was a 'magic zombie'. God knows what weird abilities it has."

Old K's expression was also extremely ugly.

He hid on the tree trunk and looked at his surroundings, which had become dangerous in an instant, and said:

"That thing. I'm not sure what it is yet, but I believe it is one of the most dangerous creatures in this ruins. I need your help, Mason."

The old hunter said:

"After we work together to hunt down this thing, we may be able to discuss the conditions for you to leave the team."

"When you say 'cooperation', do you mean letting me act as cannon fodder to lure it out?"

The young man held the combat shotgun, looked around vigilantly, then reloaded the magazine of the firearm in his hand, and said:

"I'm a shooter, old K. If I really have to choose the bait, it's you, the swordsman, who should choose it, right?"

"You're a fucking shooter."

Old K sheathed his swords disdainfully, took out his huge hunter's crossbow from behind and took aim on the tree. He said in a cold tone:

"Where we are, a guy like you can't even pass the first level of the Green Grass Trial.

Go be bait!

Otherwise, I will shoot you to death right now. Unless you can escape 300 meters away, my arrow will perform a craniotomy on you in the next second."

Mason took a deep breath and walked towards him,

He didn't believe any of Old K's words, but the fact that the old hunter was able to propose a joint plan even though he had all the advantages showed that the invisible guy who killed Bomb Girl instantly was really difficult to deal with.

Who knows when that guy showed up.

Perhaps when the team climbed onto the ruins of Hogwarts, the "magical zombie" was already watching fiercely.

As Mason walked forward, he watched the sight frame in front of him that was constantly wandering and unable to lock on the target. He was now surrounded by enemies, and any disturbance would make him vigilant.

But as he walked, Mason suddenly discovered something strange.

He looked ahead, stopped where he was, and shouted to Old K, who was aiming a crossbow behind him:

"Old K, can you still sense the voodoo birdcage you gave me?"

"What do you mean?"

Old K frowned and asked.

"That birdcage!"

Mason pointed to the place where the three men had just confronted each other.

He stared at the ground covered with blood and broken flesh and shouted:

"The birdcage containing Professor McGonagall is gone! I swear it was still there just now! Maybe it was picked up by the magical zombie or something!

I think I know who this attacker is.

It's not here to kill us!

It was you who hurt Professor McGonagall with the bomb and angered it. It still has its own mind and has not completely lost its mind. Mr. Potter?

Is it you?"

"What are you talking about? What is Professor McGonagall? What is Mr. Potter? Are you cursed?"

Old K was confused when he heard this. He couldn't understand what Mason was talking about.

But the clue provided by the young man was an idea. The old hunter took out a weird and dirty voodoo doll from his arms and held it in his hand.

The next moment his expression changed, he instantly turned the crossbow and shot three arrows 5 meters away from Mason.

Shoot two arrows at the monster, leaving the last arrow for Mason.

Obviously intending to kill two birds with one stone!

"puff"

The sound of a sharp arrow entering the body sounded so horrifying to Mason's ears at that moment.

The young man who was hit by the arrow slid to a distance, endured the pain, and pulled out the arrow stuck in his back. He twisted the high-grade blood replenishing agent in his hand and poured it into his mouth to pull himself back from the edge of serious injury.

He looked back.

The magic arrow shot by Old K was inserted into the chest of the invisible "magic zombie". The arrow burst out with dazzling lightning and thunder, and the guy was forced out of the invisible state covered by his breath.

Amidst the lightning splashes, Mason could still clearly see the guy's completely zombie-like face and sunken eye sockets.

His hands transformed into zombie claws.

His left paw is holding a broken heart, and his right paw is clutching the birdcage containing Professor McGonagall, and his withered short hair cannot hide the unique lightning mark on his forehead.

It's really him!

Harry Potter.

The former savior of the wizarding world

He was fixed in place by the power of Old K's magic arrow and unable to move. He was wearing a retro black long windbreaker and suit and a very large silver-gray magic cloak.

When he saw this thing, Mason's heart immediately began to beat wildly.

But old K doesn’t know this guy.

Seeing that the magic arrow really made the invisible man appear, the old hunter flickered to the ground, drew out his two swords and rushed forward, piercing Mr. Potter's body with several swords, and then crossed his swords to give him the final blow.

Mason also rushed forward with great courage.

But instead of helping Mr. Potter, he grabbed the invisibility cloak on Potter's body, opened the strap around his chest, and pulled it off with all his strength.

Under Old K's stunned gaze, he covered himself with the silver-gray cloak and made a "bye bye" gesture to Old K.

In the next moment, Mason's figure and breath completely disappeared from the spot. The angry old K wanted to swing his sword and chop the black-equipped bastard into pieces on the spot.

Obviously, Mason has long known the magical function of this cloak.

"Bang"

Mr. Porter, who was still struggling to fight back, was cut down by Old K with a single stroke of his superb swordsmanship. The next blow was a thunderous execution.

But at this moment, there was a muffled sound, and a sniper bullet flew from an invisible place, crushing the head of Mr. Porter who fell to the ground before Old K.

Seeing the zombie's head explode in front of his eyes, the old hunter's entire body froze in place, and an unspeakable anger surged into his heart.

Forget it if you just robbed the treasure, now you also want to rob the person’s head?

this young man

Don’t talk about martial ethics!

This is provocation, right?

This must be a provocation!

"Mason Cooper!!! Put your cat's honor on the line! I'm going to kill you!"

The incompetent and furious Old K kicked the corpse away from his feet, intending to first find a way to deal with Mason, an increasingly excessive traitor.

But within a few seconds, Old K frowned and looked in the direction of the Forbidden Forest.

An increasingly clear sense of danger was surging in that direction, as if something terrible was rushing out of the dark forest.

Old K grabbed his crossbow and filled it with a precious magic arrow. Then he saw the frightened Kite Man screaming and flying out of the forbidden forest, screaming in fear and flying towards him.

The old hunter sneered and then aimed at Mason's accomplice.

But before he pulled the trigger, Old K's expression changed drastically and he aimed the arrow at the entrance of the Forbidden Forest ahead again.

As the ground shook, a giant black beast that was five to six meters tall violently smashed into the trees and rushed out of the darkness. It had a body like a hill, terrifying claws and three heads with a low howl.

Three-headed dog!

Moreover, looking at the scarlet glow in the guy's six eyes and the exposed scars and dirty blood flowing on his black skin, it is not difficult to tell that it is still a three-headed dog that has turned into a zombie.

How could there be such a thing in this forest?

Old K began to retreat, preparing to temporarily leave the battlefield.

To be on the safe side, the old hunter put the crossbow back on his back and grabbed his long sword and hunting knife. But the moment his hunting knife was unsheathed, the terrifying three-headed dog that was howling after the kite man suddenly stopped.

Under Old K's stunned gaze, the guy's three nostrils twitched at the same time, and then six scarlet eyes stared at him.

After the three-headed dog, there was a more eye-catching figure that also moved its eight spider legs and rushed out of the forbidden forest like a ghost in the night.

The zombie Acromantula with a head no bigger than a three-headed dog also locked onto the old hunter holding Hagrid's hunting knife.

As an excellent hunter, Old K could understand the angry roar when he saw the two beasts moving forward. Although he didn't know why he angered them, he had no way to escape.

His speed couldn't match these two beasts.

It is difficult to win in this unprepared environment. He sighed, regretfully took out a stone engraved with runes from his pocket and threw it at his feet, intending to use magic to temporarily evacuate.

But at the moment when the stone flashed, a bullet suddenly flew towards it.

The rune stone flew up with a bang.

The transmitted light also dissipated in the air.

"Mason!!!"

The old hunter gritted his teeth and took out three bottles of weird-colored potion from his belt and drank it. In an instant, black veins surged from his neck to his cheeks, making him look as hideous as an evil ghost.

He swears!

After killing these two monsters, he must crush that bad guy Mason Cooper to ashes!
