In this Hogwarts without a savior

Chapter 163 161. The Sea and the Ship

Thestrals really don't need to be driven by Jon himself.

They seem to be very clear about the next journey, leading the carriage to run forward continuously.

The surrounding scenery was constantly receding, and Beachy was lying on top of Jon's head. It grabbed Jon's hair with two small paws, and the night wind made the hair on its body stand on end.

Jon took a deep breath, he held the rein tightly in his hand, and he still had a sense of unreality until now.

The third grade has not yet celebrated Halloween, and now the students and professors in the school will be forced to separate, and the meaning of the last conversation between Dumbledore and him was to leave the fate of these students who stayed on the carriage to him hand.

And to find out why Voldemort became like this?
In fact, Jon has been thinking about this problem almost every day since he came to this world. Now it seems that not only him, but also Dumbledore has always wanted to find out about this matter. After all, just like in the original book, he wants to defeat This Dark Lord must at least understand the source of his power.

People don't change so much for no reason. Something must have happened in the middle of it, which made the demon who used to be like a murderous lunatic become what he is now.

It's just that Jon didn't want to understand what kind of arrangement Dumbledore had made. Even now, even though he was holding the rein in his hand, he still didn't know where the Thestrals were going to pull the carriage.

And just after he was far away from the battlefield between the wizards of the Order of the Phoenix and the Death Eaters, the originally clear starry sky was suddenly shrouded in an unknown darkness.

Jon subconsciously clenched the wand in his hand and looked up at the sky.

At some point, a huge bat was gliding over the carriage!
The bat's wings are like a piece of black cloth the size of a basketball court. When it is stretched out, it gives people a shock that blocks the sky.

When Jon looked up and saw the bat, the bat's indifferent eyes were staring straight at him.

In Jon's cognition, there is only one kind of such a huge bat-shaped magical animal in the entire magic world.

Voldebat!
An extremely evil black magic creature, the number is very rare, and generally only lives in tropical areas, likes to sneak up on people in their sleep, suffocate people with their thick fleshy wings, and then eat them, and whenever it eats If one person is lost, its pair of wings will become thicker and its body will become larger.

A normal Voldebat is only as big as an adult, but the one that appeared in front of Jon now is far beyond the "normal" range!

It must have eaten a lot of people to be able to develop its body shape, and only human flesh can provide it with the nutrition for its continuous growth.

This terrifyingly large Voldebat just stared at Jon for a second before it began to dive down!
The thick fleshy wings didn't mean to be retracted at all, it was like a piece of black cloth, it wanted to wrap the entire Hogwarts carriage from above, just like it usually suffocates those prey, wrap this one All the students in the car were wrapped into his wings!

"Shen Feng has no shadow!"

Without the slightest hesitation, the moment he saw its intention, Jon swung his staff and cast the spell without hesitation!

The invisible sharp blade cut through the air in an instant, and landed on the thick fleshy wings of the Voldebat the next moment!

"Pfft!"

The sound of flesh and blood being sliced ​​was heard. This black magic created by Snape has both extremely fast casting speed and extremely high power. It is almost impossible to avoid this spell.

What's more, the Voldebat's target is so big, it's strange that Jon's spell can't hit it.

But because of the huge size of this bat, the damage Jon's attack caused to it was almost the same as a cut on a human finger, which was almost negligible.

Its falling movement didn't mean to be hindered in the slightest, the stinky blood just splashed on the roof of the carriage, and then wrapped the entire carriage into its wings!
Voldebat's action did not stop the Thestrals from running, its weight seemed to have no resistance to these natural horses, it was like a huge black octopus attached to the carriage, and the pair The thick wings are still tightening.

On the carriage, all the students who were gathered in the dining room at this moment saw the windows of the carriage being closed by black flesh wings, and then there was an extremely violent shaking!

The young first-year freshmen huddled in the corner in panic. They didn't know what happened, but the fear in their hearts had already filled their hearts.

Although the senior students couldn't suppress their uneasiness, they had experienced more storms than the freshmen, and in this case, they still had the experience to comfort and take care of the crying freshmen.

"Why isn't Jon here?" Hermione looked a little pale, but she still retained the most basic composure.

Neville handed a piece of chocolate to a freshman, his frowning obviously expressed worry, but he still opened his mouth to think in a better direction.

"Jon may be with the professors, rest assured, he will certainly be in no danger."

At this time, the students in the carriage didn't know that their professors had left the carriage to stop the final enemy for them, and they were the only ones in the whole school.

Voldebat's movements have not stopped.

Just when it was about to pull the entire carriage into its body, a faint silver light suddenly shot out from the gap!
The moment the silver light came on, Voldebat's wings, which were constantly tightening, suddenly began to relax.

It was as if he had encountered the thing he hated and feared the most, let go of the carriage that was almost in his pocket, and ascended to the sky again.

Jon held up the magic wand with silver threads of light wandering in his hand, and stood up from the driver's seat in embarrassment.

The position he was in was unobstructed on three sides, and it was the place where the space was first compressed after the Voldebat's flesh wings were tightened.Fortunately, Jon finally played the role of the Patronus Charm in actual combat for the first time before the last space for casting spells disappeared.

Although the patron saint has not yet been successfully summoned, those wandering silver lights have already had enough influence on Voldebat.

This kind of creature has almost no weaknesses, but just like dementors, it is inherently afraid of the Patronus Charm. This has nothing to do with how big they can grow, but more like a natural restraint.

It's just that the unformed Patronus still lacks some utility. Even if Voldebat let go of the carriage, it still followed closely above the carriage.

It stared closely at the silver light on the tip of Jon's staff, as if he knew very well that the Patronus Charm he used would not last long, as long as the light went out, Voldebat would pounce on it again, Eat everyone on this wagon!

The more this time came, the calmer Jon became. He held up the magic wand in his hand, letting the continuously flowing silver light flow around the carriage.

Thestrals were still running forward, as if they had also heard Dumbledore's last advice to Jon, keep going!
Jon couldn't stop casting the Patronus Charm. The Voldebat flying in the sky was like a jackal following its prey on the grassland. Once he showed the slightest timidity, the monster would eat it without hesitation. The tastiest delicacy.

So now Jon must find a way to break through the predicament as soon as possible. Using a high-strength spell such as the Patronus Charm, he cannot cast spells endlessly. When continuing to use the spell.

He held the wand in one hand and the rein in the other, his brain was spinning rapidly, but before he could think of a solution, under the faint moonlight, he suddenly saw a steep cliff right in front of the carriage!

Subconsciously, Jon held his breath!

He suddenly clenched the rein in his hand, and the first thought in his heart was to change the direction of the Thestrals, but before he could put this idea into action, before leaving, Dumbledore left him That advice came to his mind.

'No matter what you encounter, or what obstacles lie ahead, remember my words now, go forward, keep going forward! '

Jon didn't know whether Dumbledore was encouraging him spiritually or guiding him in action, but he knew that Dumbledore's words could not be useless.

He gritted his teeth, didn't pull the rein hard, and just stared straight ahead!

The Thestrals had no intention of stopping, and Jon also gave up his original idea of ​​driving them to turn.

Not only did their speed not decrease in the slightest, but they became faster and faster, so fast that they seemed to be flying with everyone!
The Voldebat was also raising its height. It looked at the carriage with a humanized sarcasm, as if it had seen the end of the road for the people in this carriage!
Under Jon's invisible vision, the Thestrals spread their dark wings, and when they ran to the highest point of the cliff, they suddenly lifted into the air!

Pulled on them, the rope connecting the carriages suddenly loosened, and suddenly tightened again.

Under the moonlit night, the carriage seemed to be hovering in mid-air!
Jon grabbed the rein tightly, and Beachy's entire rear body above his head also flew up with inertia, and he could only use the two front paws to tightly hold Jon's hair!
Under such a situation, Jon naturally had no way to continue casting the Patronus Charm. The silver light at the tip of his wand began to become weaker, and just as it was about to go out, the Voldebat over the carriage aimed at this The best neutral, that huge body suddenly hit the carriage!
Such a huge force caused the carriage to fall suddenly, and the Thestrals, which were originally spreading their wings in the sky, did not struggle or resist at all, they followed this force obediently, and glide down the cliff with their flat wings.

It is not a flat land below, but an endless sea!

Jon couldn't see the Thestrals, and naturally he couldn't see their actions at the moment, but the moment the carriage started to fall, he could see the waves below.

At this moment, he didn't know why in his mind, and remembered a question he asked the old man at the beginning of this year.

【Then why do we still stay in England, Professor Dumbledore? 】

【. It actually inherited the Hogwarts castle that was not captured eight years ago, and it has a very special meaning to this land.As a result, its wheels can only turn on the ground of the United Kingdom forever, but it has no way to touch the land outside the British Isle. 】

The wheel can only turn on the ground in England. There is no way to touch the land outside the British Isle.
"Pfft!"

The carriage fell into the turbulent sea, splashing waves more than ten meters high.

The Voldebat flying in the sky circled the sea for a long time, as if it was hoping that one or two surviving people could come up from the water as its dinner tonight.

But to its disappointment, it seemed that no one escaped from the carriage that sank to the bottom of the sea, just like that, it was submerged in the constantly churning waves.

Voldebat didn't stay any longer, it started to return in the direction it came from, and the owner who raised it was still waiting for it to return to life, even if these human cubs didn't let it eat it by itself, they could still make it go back There is a confession, and more rewards will be obtained.

The "dark cloud" that covered a large area of ​​the starry sky flew away, and the sea was being wrapped by the cold October night wind and the waves were constantly beating against the rocks. There was no trace of anyone or the carriage.

However, it is not far from this sea area, in a piece of sea water far away from the coastline.

A huge old wooden boat fell silently from the sea water, and then jumped out of the sea!
The sea water slipped from the deck and splashed on the sea surface, and there was a pleasant sound of water.

Jon was sitting dumbfounded on the helmsman's seat of the wooden boat, watching behind him, an ancient yellowed white sail was slowly rising on the mast.

There is an extremely conspicuous emblem on that white sail, shining brightly under the moonlight.

It was a lion, an eagle, a badger and a snake surrounding a capital "H" emblem.

The white sail was completely hoisted, and the rudder in front of Jon turned by itself!

The long sail deflected, and this huge wooden ship, which only existed in the Middle Ages, began to move in its intended direction.

Beach jumped off Jon's head excitedly, and its movement also brought Jon back to his senses, who was in shock.

He never thought that the original carriage would produce such an incredible change even in the magic world!
Dumbledore told him that the wheels of a carriage can only be driven on British land, but he never thought about it, since other grounds are not allowed, why not the sea?
The wooden boat braved the wind and waves, and the sound of the surrounding waves echoed in Jon's ears.

Beach is running around curiously on an unfamiliar deck; even if you can't see it, you can clearly feel that the Thestrals that used to pull the cart in front of the carriage are also on the deck, squeaking under their feet. sound boards.

All of these are telling Jon that he and other people in Hogwarts are embarking on a new journey!
