"You're lying, Malfoy"
Harry tried his best not to sound like he was arguing, but the sound he made was still close to a roar
"I just came over there, Malfoy. There is nothing there except a ditch. You are scaring people."
If it were normal times, Malfoy, who was treated with this attitude by Potter, might have taken advantage of it. He took out his wand and fought back, but now, he didn't feel any displeasure at being offended. Instead, he just sobbed in despair.
"A chained corpse crawled out of the water. I saw it. "
After saying this, Malfoy seemed to have exhausted all his strength and collapsed in front of the round arch of the small tomb, murmuring like he was losing his voice,
"Bray. He wants to kill us, Potter, and we will all die."
"That's nonsense," Harry said through gritted teeth.
"Mr. Blaine was sent by the school board to investigate. Officer and Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, Principal Dumbledore will know everything that happens here, and Professor Snape is also outside."
Harry refuted Malfoy's nonsense inference, but at least he I believe one thing, that is, I am afraid that there really is the same corpse on the other side where I came in, but I didn't find it.
It’s that piece of wood
After thinking for a moment, Harry understood that the chained body Malfoy mentioned should be the piece of wood floating in the middle of the small ditch. , because he was stepped on, so he woke up from his eternal sleep.
Now, the situation before Harry is that both the front and back roads are blocked by two corpses that can move and look like they can bite people. He and Malfoy are trapped. In the middle, it only took about thirty seconds for the two of them to face the two corpses head-on, and Malfoy, his only teammate, seemed to have given up on resisting.
"Damn"
Harry trotted to Malfoy and dragged him from outside the arch into the small tomb. Throughout the whole process, Malfoy made no movement of resistance, just trembling. He was swaying majestically, muttering words like "It's over."
"No, I have to do something."
Clear rustling sounds and the crisp sound of chains sliding on the ground gradually came to his ears, and Harry anxiously I walked around in the small tomb, racking my brains to think of any decent means of resistance I could come up with.
The best way is to get two big rocks to block the round arches on the front and back of the tomb. Although the two zombies look evil and dangerous, they don’t seem to be very strong. It seems that if he can seal the room, then he and Malfoy can save their lives.
However, he is not Professor McGonagall who teaches transfiguration. He does not have the lightness to wave his wand. The magical ability to turn beetles into teapots
Harry was still thinking, but the two Inferi were not so kind as to wait for him to come up with a perfect solution. Soon, they were one behind the other. ofHe walked around the corner and appeared in Harry's sight, only about thirty feet away from the small room.
"Everything turned to stone"
When death was approaching, Harry gave up thinking and handed his body over to instinct. Without any hesitation, he spread vertical and horizontal sprays towards the swollen face. There were intertwined fine cracks, and a body wearing a prison uniform, with its hands and feet restrained by two chains, threw out a cursed light.
The first time Harry saw this curse was when Hermione used it against Neville last year. At that time, Neville turned into an immovable sculpture under the influence of this curse. For several hours, Harry wished that the Petrification Charm he had cast would have such a perfect effect.
But unfortunately, his spell failed. The walking corpse that was hit by the petrification curse did stagger slowly, but it was not restrained from moving.
" "Expelliarmus"
Harry tried again on the female walker on the other side. The disarming spell was the only useful thing Harry learned from the dueling course given by Lockhart, and It was Snape who taught him this.
A brilliant red light shot out from the tip of Harry's staff and accurately hit the chest of the walking zombie. This spell was so powerful that even the walking zombie was under the disarming curse. Guang forced back several steps
But this did not solve the problem. The female walker who had regained her balance once again approached the small room.
Two consecutive failures made Harry despair. Malfoy, who was leaning against the wall, had even closed his eyes, as if waiting for something to bite his neck.
What should we do?
Large drops of sweat rolled down his forehead like beads and reached Harry's cheeks, which were as red as cooked lobsters. He seemed to believe it now. What Professor Brain said in the office last night, power is power. No matter what kind of extreme emotion you have, it cannot help you gain the power to defeat fear in an instant. At most, it can only make you determined to pursue power.
"Think of a way, Malfoy, is there any other way to prevent them from approaching"
In the thin line between life and death, Harry no longer bothered to condemn Malfoy's disappointing performance. , he yelled at Malfoy, hoping to get some inspiration.
"We are dead, Potter"
Harry's two failed spells seemed to give Malfoy a little encouragement, and he stood tremblingly against the wall. He stood up with tears in his eyes,
"There is no magic spell that can defeat dead things"
Looking at the two inferi that were already only ten feet away from the front and back doors. , after experiencing the baptism of fear, Harry's two green eyes bloomed with determination again.
"Listen to me, Malfoy, listen to me clearly, and don't ask why, because I don't know why I did it."
After a simple judgment, Harry He aimed his gaze at the Inferi that was restrained by the chains, breathing heavily,
"I will try to use the leg tripping spell soon."I can't bring down this chained guy. If I fail, I will rush out and knock it aside. While it bites my neck, you can pass through. Please call Professor Snape in. , before I die"
Malfoy was stunned for a moment. He stared at Harry with his mouth open, as if he had met him for the first time.
Harry Malfoy didn't have a chance to ask questions. After saying that, he immediately raised his wand, his still immature face exuding fearlessness.
"Wait, Potter, why. "
"It's over, Draco and you Potter, you can put down your wand. ”
Before Malfoy finished speaking, another calm voice suddenly sounded in the small small room.
With the appearance of this voice, the two Inferi looked like After receiving some signal, he generally stopped in place and never took a step forward.
God testifies, the appearance of Professor Snape has never made Harry so happy, because he was too excited. , he even showed a relieved smile to Snape who walked out of the wall
And Snape's expression when he looked at Harry was different from all the times before. He was not in a hurry to show that kind of expression. He smiled coldly, but his face was complicated, and his dark eyes showed a little sadness
"Professor"
This look of Snape actually made Harry feel scared. He raised his head and looked at Snape, and asked in a cautious voice,
"Have we failed in our challenge?"
Snape answered this question in a nasal voice. Li took out the joy potion that he had prepared and gave it to Harry and Draco roughly, and watched them drink it.
Under the effect of the joy potion, Harry and Draco turned green. His face was no longer so tense.
After losing the external pressure, a wave of fatigue from the inside out instantly swept over both of their consciousnesses, and they were about to fall to the ground. Pu Yanji quickly supported them and put them under his armpits, but when he picked up Harry, Snape almost slipped and dropped him to the ground.
"Let's go."
Finally, Snape turned his head and glanced at the two inferi who were already walking back to their original positions, passed directly through the wall, and left.
