Raven's Claw at Hogwarts

Chapter 184
Then the staff on the field cooperated with the professor and quickly mobilized, and worked together to drag the seriously injured Mike and Cedric back to the infirmary for treatment.

Mike was a little better, after all, what he suffered was pure physical injury.

Although it is more serious, almost the entire chest was cut open, and several ribs were broken, but this kind of simple physical injury is actually not too difficult to heal in the wizarding world, as long as the potion treatment and rest, lie down It will be back to normal after a period of time, and even a little scar will not be left.

Cedric's was more serious.

Mike used all his strength in the final blow, which caused his body to suffer extremely serious injuries, and almost half of his body was smashed.

This kind of injury is absolutely hopeless on a simple human, but fortunately he was in the form of a honey badger at the time, relying on the amazing survival ability of the honey badger and Professor Sprout immediately pouring a lot of water into him Healing potion, so it survived.

But his Transfiguration was a bit trickier.

After examining Cedric's body, Professor McGonagall made a judgment that she could not restore Cedric to human form immediately.

When faced with Sprout's question, she explained as follows:

the first.

The main reason why Cedric is still alive is because his survivability in honey badger form has been greatly improved. If he is rashly restored to human form now, then Cedric will die suddenly from the current injury, and Merlin will not be able to. return.

second.

Cedric's accomplishments in transfiguration are not as exaggerated as everyone imagined. Although the family secret technique gave him the ability to approach the master of transfiguration, this ability is also flawed, and it is not true that he can be proficient in various Transfiguration.

This caused Cedric to make a mistake when releasing the body shapeshifting technique, causing his sanity to be affected by the honey badger's animal nature and unable to recover on his own.

Although Professor McGonagall is a master in transfiguration, it is impossible to immediately restore the person who lost control of the use of human transfiguration to the original state. She needs time to reverse Cedric's transfiguration steps.

Finally, Professor McGonagall also said that the effect of the honey badger's bestiality on Cedric's sanity is likely to be permanent.

That is to say, even if Cedric is rescued in the end, it is very likely that he will become a beast in human skin, instead of the good student of the original style.

After listening to Professor McGonagall's conclusion, Professor Sprout couldn't believe his ears, and Mr. Diggory who came after him sat down on the ground, staring blankly at the Cedric was transported away by the staff using the floating spell.

But if someone is sad, someone must be happy. Lockhart and Ludo in the hanging attic are going crazy with joy.

They had already set up "belly sentences" to attract everyone to place bets long before the start of this competition, and this duel competition did not disappoint them. They received nearly a million dollars just because of the "blocking" in the school. Tens of thousands of Galleons, the handicap outside the school even directly received tens of thousands of Galleons of funds.

Don't underestimate these Galleons. Although Mike earned [-] Galleons just by having a casual fight with Willie, Willie is a well-known noble son in the wizarding world. Money is really just a number in the eyes of the rich, and resources are real wealth for them.

But in the lives of ordinary wizards, this ten thousand gold Galleons is likely to be money that they will never be able to earn in their entire lives.

Let’s go back to Lockhart and Ludo, these two people not only set up the “Diagram”, but also joined it themselves. Of course, they voted for Cedric instead of Mike, and this is also the choice of most people. .

After all, Mike is only in the second grade this year, while Cedric is in the fourth grade. The gap between these two years is quite huge in the eyes of outsiders.

And Cedric's performance in the game is also much better than Mike's. Basically, he belongs to the kind that goes all the way to the finals. This is much better than Mike. You must know that Mike was almost defeated in the semifinals. Willy's ability to use money was defeated.

With the help of a Muggle-born wizard, their odds were cleverly set so that they would make money no matter who won, it was just a matter of how much.

Of course, Cedric wins and they gain the most, because they not only set Mike's ratio very high to attract greedy people, but also set Cedric's ratio very low.

This leads to a big profit if Cedric wins, and a small profit if Mike wins.

However, things developed in a direction they didn't expect at all. Mike and Cedric even ended up in a draw!

Ludo and Lockhart were about to explode with joy. Although they had set the option of a draw, not many people voted at all. Although the ratio was set to be very high, the number of people was small after all, so the funds they lost Compared with the overall funds of up to tens of thousands, it is simply a drop in the bucket.

"Audience! Now our game has an unexpected situation. Both Mike and Cedric have lost their ability to fight!" Lockhart explained with dancing, "Our staff just came up to report that the two The injuries of all the contestants are very serious, and they all need to receive long-term treatment. But according to the original plan, we will leave the next two months for all students to concentrate on preparing for the exam.

So in this situation we have decided... no more playoffs!Player Mike and Player Cedric are tied!Together they will become the champions of this duel contest! "

As soon as this remark came out, earth-shattering curses broke out in the stands. Most of the people present also placed their bets. Of course, most of them were some poor students. Let's support the players from our academy.

Those who bet with silver Sickles are already considered wealthy. If you bet with a gold Galleon, then congratulations, you will definitely be looked up to by the classmates around you as a local tyrant.

These people are still blocked by mosquito legs, and the main contributors to the huge sum of nearly [-] Galleons are those students from the old aristocratic backgrounds. Compared with those people mentioned before, these students from the aristocratic backgrounds are much more generous. Yes, the minimum guarantee is three-digit Galleons.

And now those people who shout the most are also students from noble backgrounds. These people put a lot of effort into blocking them, and some even slapped their faces to pretend to be fat and forced them to install coins, so they could only jump out and curse Lockhart together. Yiqiu can force Lockhart to submit through the pressure of public opinion.

In contrast, those students who only voted for a few copper Knuts did not react much. Although the few copper Knuts were not too small for some of them, but seeing those students who invested hundreds of thousands of gold Galleons People also lost so badly, and they felt much better in their hearts, and even their gloating psychology overwhelmed the depression of losing money.

If you really complied with that sentence, the little one is happy but the big one is hurting the body.

However, no matter how much these people cursed Lockhart and Ludo, they were still unmoved. Under the temptation of huge interests, they had already ignored the possible impact of this incident.

Following Lockhart's announcement that the final was officially over, the light-shadow giant badgers and giant eagles above the amphitheatre also flew towards each other, but this time they didn't attack each other, but rubbed each other friendly, together Qi Fei went to the podium representing honor.

At this time, the representative creatures of the other two colleges, the giant snake and the giant lion, also appeared together, chasing the figures of the eagle and the badger to the podium, but they were smaller than the latter two. A full circle.

The staff also came to the backstage to inform Bruno and Willie to accept the award, but when the staff happily informed Willie and Bruno of the news, an embarrassing thing happened.

Willie snorted coldly and flung his sleeves away, leaving only Bruno standing there at a loss.

Bruno was originally not eligible to receive the award because he lost to Willy, who had money ability, in the previous third place match, but because Mike and Cedric tied for first place in a tie, his ranking also changed. became the third.

After Bruno came to his senses, he ignored the staff's dissuasion and left the arena directly. As the current Hogwarts Boys' Union President, he was not a fool, so he naturally understood that he was going to present the award alone as a "lucky man" Taiwan accepting the award will definitely be regarded as a laughing stock by everyone in the school.

As a result, the representative beasts of the four colleges who hadn't waited for the master for a long time seemed to be a little impatient after circling the podium for a while, and immediately began to transform, entangled and combined in midair, forming a Hogwarts Shield-shaped school badge.

However, this should have been the most solemn scene in the duel contest, but it became the funniest moment at this moment, because none of the four winners came to the stage to accept the award, which made people standing by the awarding platform holding trophies and flowers ready to give Lockhart and Ludo, who were presenting the awards, were sweating profusely in embarrassment.

In the end, he had to leave hastily amid the laughter of everyone in the stands.

But the people in the infirmary of Hogwarts School knew nothing about what was happening in the arena at this moment. In fact, they were already so anxious that they didn't care about the things on the arena at all.

In Cedric's ward, a strong and disgusting smell of burnt and barbecue filled the entire ward.Cedric, who was still in the form of a giant honey badger, was lying on a huge bed, and small strands of dark red blood kept oozing from his body, dyeing his snow-white state into dark red in a short while.

Large areas of scorched black burns and countless wounds caused by the explosion and shattering spell spread all over Cedric's body, leaving almost no good flesh on his body. As for the fur, it had already been burned in Mike's sea of ​​fire.

Mrs. Pomfler is anxiously discussing the treatment plan with Professor McGonagall and others, but they have been unable to come up with any effective method.

As I said before, physical injuries are nothing in the wizarding world. What doctors in the wizarding world are most afraid of encountering are weird curses and mental injuries. The wizards who have mastered magical magic are helpless.

Cedric's complex injuries caused by the out-of-control body shapeshifting technique and severe physical damage are no easier to treat than lifting an unknown and powerful curse.

And in Mike's ward, a girl with freckles and a pair of huge black-rimmed glasses - Soraka was leaning over Mike's bed and observing the wound on Mike's chest.

After an unknown amount of time, Soraka seemed to have finally decided on a treatment plan. A gleam of light suddenly appeared on her thick spectacle lenses, and then she saw her pair of slender hands stretching out directly towards the huge chest on Mike's chest. The wound, grabbed the edge of the wound and pulled it hard!
With a light pop, the wound was pulled open, and almost the entire chest of Mike was exposed to the air.

At this moment, Soraka was completely immersed in the work, and saw that the corner of his mouth unconsciously pulled a creepy arc, his eyes covered by thick glasses were full of fanaticism, and his little blood-stained hands came out of nowhere. With a twitch at the waist, he pulled out his wand and pointed it at Mike's chest.

"Clean up!"

As the spell was uttered, a small gust of wind blew inside Mike's chest, sweeping away all foreign objects including broken bones.

What does it feel like to have a miniature tornado raging inside your chest?
No one can tell, after all, this kind of thing is too magical.

But one thing everyone can be sure of is that it must be painful!
Ever since, our Mike couldn't stop sweating from his temples under the stimulation of this level of pain, and the eyeballs under his eyelids were also frantically turning, and he was about to wake up.

However, our Miss Soraka still didn't notice this, her hands kept moving, and she quickly took out a bottle of dark green weird potion from the bedside cabinet and poured it directly into Mike's chest cavity.

"呲~"

As soon as the dark green potion was poured into Mike's chest, there was a violent reaction, making a strange sound like cold water being poured on magma.

This time Mike finally woke up, and he opened his eyes weakly. The first thing that came into view was a face covered with freckles and wearing a pair of thick black glasses.

However, he didn't have the time to think about the girl's identity at this moment, because at this moment, there was an unimaginable pain in his chest.

Supporting his weak body, Mike raised his head and looked at his chest. It was okay if he didn't look at it, but he was stunned when he saw it.

Because his chest cavity was completely opened at this moment, he could even see his heart beating slowly inside.

This is not the scariest thing, the weirdest thing is that the few broken ribs and damaged organs in his chest are growing rapidly at the moment, and the white and blood-red granulation bone buds are twisted wantonly. Mike's heart beat faster involuntarily.

Soraka, who was still concentrating on studying Mike's chest, finally noticed Mike's sudden heartbeat, turned his head to look in the direction of Mike's head, but happened to collide with Mike's gaze.

The two just stared at each other in silence, a few seconds later, a red cloud floated on Soraka's cheek, an indescribable shame welled up in his heart, and then Soraka screamed and slapped Slapped it on Mike's face.

Poor Mike hadn't recovered from the shock of seeing the scene inside his chest before he was slapped by Soraka again, so he passed out again with tears in the corners of his eyes.
