Hogwarts: Harley from the Witch Path

Chapter 301 The Assassin's Hunt (make up for yesterday's leave note)
The celebration lasted until very late, and directly led to the failure of many Gryffindor cubs to wake up the next morning.

This made Professor Snape extremely happy. After all, even if the day before was the first event of the Six Wizard Tournament, you still couldn't be late or absent from the Potions class the next day.

Therefore, Professor Snape logically deducted [-] points from each of the sixth grade Gryffindors. The reasons for deducting points were "being late for class, not observing discipline, and despising teachers".

It's a pity that there are too few Gryffindor students in the sixth grade potions improvement class, there are only eight students in total.

Otherwise, just for this class alone, he could deduct the points he gave Harley for a week.

But the little lions didn't care, and didn't even bother to complain or talk back to Professor Snape.

Anyway, the warriors of Hogwarts are in Gryffindor, not in Slytherin. It is Gryffindor who has brought supreme glory to Hogwarts.

No matter how much Professor Snape deducted points or how much the Slytherins laughed at them, the little lions of Gryffindor thought it was just the jealous and incompetent rage of Professor Snape and the Slytherins.

Except for Professor Snape, the other professors expressed their understanding and tolerance for the lateness of the Gryffindor students.

After all, it is normal for the Hogwarts warriors to achieve such a great victory.

In the words of Professor McGonagall, if she had held the former Triwizard Tournament or the current Six-wizard Tournament when she was in school, and the Hogwarts warriors had achieved such good results.

Then she will definitely celebrate until midnight, and she won't even be able to sleep at night.

This atmosphere of constant celebration lasted for a long time, and Halle became the center of everyone's attention.

Every time Harry went to class or the library, there would always be little wizards watching and whispering.

And there are often some little wizards who come over with parchment and quills and ask for autographs. Some people even asked for one when Harley chose it, and now they are trying to get another one.

In addition, for some reason, Krum often went to the library to read books during this period of time, and always sat around the three of Harley.

So Harry was forced to shift positions, borrowed a bunch of books at once with the IOU from Professor Snape, and then took them to the Room of Requirement to study.

In addition to these students who did not graduate, the Hogwarts alumni who have graduated are also happy for this brilliant record.

Both Sirius and Lupine wrote congratulatory letters one after another, but they are still in the community of dark wizards and werewolves for the time being, so they cannot return.

In addition, many magic masters who are familiar with Harry, especially those who graduated from Gryffindor, also sent letters.

Hedwig was exhausted these days.Although she is not the owl responsible for delivering the letter, many times, Halle needs Hedwig to help deliver a reply.

Although Hedwig has completely digested the potion of the Sequence [-] psychiatrist and can drink the Sequence [-] hypnotist's potion at any time.

But this does not increase the owl's physical strength much.

So Hedwig always looked half-dead when she came back from delivering the letter every night.

But soon, everyone's attention was diverted from celebrating the victory of the first project, and moved to a new kind of fun.

On the first weekend after the competition, the "Daily Prophet" published a detailed report on the first project, and attached a video shot using magic.

But this was just an appetizer, and the next day's "Daily Prophet" became Rita's yin and yang special.

Rita was uncharacteristically this time, not as aggressive as she used to criticize Professor Dumbledore as "an old lunatic with a hard-headed, rigid head" with every word.

On the contrary, Rita also hyped up the fairness of the two referees of the Ministry of Magic and other headmasters, and it seemed that the main goal was to lick the headmasters of the Ministry of Magic and other magical schools.

It's not until the middle of the article that Rita shows her fangs - she starts mentioning Karkaroff's unfair behavior from all angles.

The interviews of Catherine and Miguel are also quoted in large paragraphs.

And in order to ensure that the news effect is strong enough, Rita did not fully use the quill's rhetoric this time.

She took the initiative herself, and while ensuring that more than [-]% of the words were spoken by the two interviewed warriors, she slightly modified [-]% of them, or even just a few words.

Just like Miguel's original words are:

"I think most of the time, the referees are fair. They only show a little emotional tendency when they grade their own students, but it doesn't hurt."

And Rita moved the pen when she wrote the press release, turning this sentence into:

"I think most of the referees are fairly fair, but some referees have a tendency to show emotion when they score their own students."

After this sentence came out, it was Rita's turn to show off.

Even when Krum hated the interview and backed away with a frown, Rita didn't let go.

She secretly took a picture of this scene with a miniature magic camera, and placed it in a very conspicuous place in the newspaper.

In Rita's words, this is when Krum "realized the despicable behavior of his principal and was ashamed of it, so he was too embarrassed to face an interview with a righteous reporter."

The rhetorical Karkaroff in this report, blushing and thick-necked, blatantly exploded in the Great Hall of Hogwarts.

But there was nothing he could do. The other two principals were also very protective of their calf and ignored Karkaroff at all.

And here is Britain, he has no ability to interfere with the "freedom of speech" of British newspapers, so he can only be incompetent and furious.

But fortunately, this report is just sarcasm, satirizing myself.

And he didn't violate the specific rules of the competition or the laws formulated by the British Ministry of Magic.

As long as Karkaroff is shameless enough, he will not be afraid of such useless article attacks at all.

Of course, he also had to endure the daily owl letters from angry wizards all over Britain, and the occasional howling letter and malicious letter containing a curse or a dangerous plant solution.

After all, these are also within the legal scope, and they are legal in the entire magic world, so Karkaroff can only bear it.

In the days that followed, Rita brought the matter up and flogged it every other week, as if to keep the heat going.

This behavior seemed useless, but it still gave Karkaroff a somewhat ominous premonition.

Harley didn't pay attention to Rita's behavior. After all, professional matters should be left to professionals.

Most of Harry's attention at this time was focused on another matter - that is, Ollivander's warning about Harry's wand.

On the night after the game, Harley visited the memory of Ollivander's grandfather personally through the magic mirror.

I don't know why, although Ollivander told Harley that this memory included the process and location of Ollivander's grandfather obtaining the core of the wand.

But that memory was eroded and damaged by unknown forces.

Harley only got one coordinate from it, a coordinate in the spiritual world.

Although Ollivander's grandfather is not very strong, it seems very strange to be able to obtain this coordinate.

But this kind of extremely peculiar coordinates can only exist in the spiritual world that does not distinguish between top and bottom, and brings together the past, present and future.

As for the only remaining part of this memory - the part that records the specific process of making the wand, it is still very well preserved.

However, probably because this is just an ordinary memory, even though Harley saw the shape of his wand core, he couldn't feel the extraordinaryness of this wand core.

After thinking for a long time and formulating a series of comprehensive plans, Harley finally set a time to prepare to solve this matter.

…………

On the second weekend after finishing the first project, on that Saturday night, Harry quietly left Hogwarts Castle.

But at this time, in the Gryffindor tower of Hogwarts Castle, on the bed of a girl's dormitory, there was a girl with the same face as Harry, with a peaceful smile on her face, falling into a sweet dream.

Harley wasn't sure how long she'd have to go, or even if she'd make it back.

So that carefully crafted wand came in handy.

Harley used it to build a clone, a clone with roughly the peak strength of the sixth sequence, to replace herself.

At the same time, if Harley's body accidentally falls during this uncertain operation, then Harley can also use this surrogate wand to resurrect directly in Hogwarts and quickly regain all her strength.

Of course, the power of Sequence Three, which is still sealed, cannot be regained, and it will even be permanently lost.

Therefore, Harley still needs to be cautious in this action.

After entering the Forbidden Forest, Harry quickly sneaked into the spirit world.

The last time Harley came, she didn't observe the spirit world carefully. This time, she took a good look at it.

The spirit world at this time is the same as the spirit world after endless years, still so mysterious and full of charm.

All kinds of brilliance are flowing, exuding spiritual luster, making people want to immerse themselves in it.

However, perhaps because of the imminent recovery at the beginning, a large amount of power was taken away by it and used for the deepest sleep before waking up.

Therefore, the spirit world is not like the original spirit world of the northern and southern continents, where there are so many strange and powerful spirit creatures.

The spiritual world here is empty, except for the occasional beings that resemble ghosts flying by.

And they look empty-eyed, as if they no longer remember who they are.

The seven lights of the spirit world were still hanging high in the sky, and this time they did not take the initiative to come to look for Harley.

Of course, Harley didn't even think about contacting the Seven Lights of the spirit world.She didn't hesitate much, and acted quickly according to the coordinates in her memory.

However, Harley also dropped several mirrors at several suitable places along the way, and set up a ritual with a concealing effect, as a backhand for escape in case of accidents.

Moving in the spiritual world is always very fast. In less than 15 minutes, Harley arrived near the coordinates.

And this is the result of Harley deliberately controlling the speed, otherwise she could be even faster.

Before approaching the coordinates, Harley quickly stopped.

At the location marked by this coordinate, there is a mountain composed of stones in the ordinary world.

These stones seem to have been infected, exuding a halo of spiritual mist.

Harry was not surprised to see these ordinary materials in the spirit world.

When traveling in the spirit world of the Northern Continent, she even saw many well-made stone castles.

On one of the stone castles that impressed Harry the most, there was a beautiful noble lady standing there.

However, this noble lady has no head, but has four heads in her hand.

It was this peculiar shape, coupled with the vaguely perceived angel-level terrifying personality, that made Harley, who was still a desperate witch at the time, dare not approach her, and she still couldn't forget her until now.

Although she was a little curious about where these ordinary materials came from and why they were brought into the spirit world, Harley also had the ability and didn't have the free time to explore.

On this stone mountain, there is an inexplicable black cave, which happens to be located at the center of that precise coordinate.

When seeing the cave, Harry instantly felt the spirituality in his whole body jumping for joy, as if he was urging himself to enter the cave as soon as possible to explore the mysteries contained in it.

However, as an immortal witch who killed all the way up from the low sequence alone, Harley would definitely not be too reckless and plunge into this unknown place.

Harry's figure swayed slightly, and he hid behind an inanimate object suspended in the spirit world, covering up his own existence.

Then, Harry began to move in a large circle around the hill, throwing down mirrors or wands.

In the end, she casually put on the gold-rimmed glasses, layer after layer of suggestion and hypnosis were superimposed and could take effect at any time.

These preparations in advance allow Harley to display her mythical creature form at will for a certain period of time.

Unless Harley's spirituality is on the verge of being drained, she won't be spiraling out of control.

The invisible halo of disease also spread quietly, covering that coordinate quietly.

This ability can be said to be the most commonly used ability of the Witch of Pain in Sequence Five, but it is rarely used by Harley.

After all, it was just a small fight in Hogwarts. Harry couldn't backhand throw a disease halo while training for a duel with Professor Flitwick.

But things are different now. Facing this unknown enemy, Harley naturally does not need to control her power as deliberately as she did during pure magic training with the professors at Hogwarts.

After completing the preparatory work, Harley directly entered a state of invisibility and continued to move forward slowly.

Calculating that time was almost up, Harley suddenly broke her invisibility state, and black flames rose behind her.

The black flame burst out instantly and poured into the black hole, as if there was no fear that the mystery contained in it would be damaged.

"Shishan" instantly let out a shrill wail and exploded.

Those stones full of spirituality rushed outward under the powerful force, and they were extremely fast and powerful.

A spirit body that flew here unintentionally seemed to be unable to maintain its shape after being pierced by a certain stone, and dissipated directly into the spirit world.

Harry also had to build a wall formed by the Iron Armor Curse in front of him and cover it with a thick layer of ice to completely block the rocks flying in his direction.

At the same time, Harley also spied the true face of that "stone mountain"——

It wasn't a rocky mountain at all, but a snake-like creature that covered its entire body with broken stones and coiled its body up.

And the black hole before is the mouth of this snake-like creature!

Harry wasn't surprised at all when he saw this scene.

The first half of Ollivander's grandfather's memory seems to have been eroded by unknown forces, but only the most important coordinates remained.

Moreover, this coordinate is a coordinate unique to the spirit world. This matter is unreasonable no matter how you look at it, and there is an aura of weirdness and conspiracy everywhere.

"Is it similar to the state of aggregation of similar domain characteristics like some extraordinary creatures?"

Harry stood in mid-air in the spirit world, calmly staring at the snake-like creature below.

This tentatively considered snake creature is much bigger than fire dragons and basilisks, and it is completely black, exuding demigod-level power related to death, dreams and night.

This is very similar to some creatures that Harry has seen in the Southern Continent. Those creatures also have abilities in multiple ways, and the materials on their bodies can also be added to potions in different ways.

Harry still remembered a snake-like dog-headed creature with wings and four claws that he had hunted.

That strange creature possesses the extraordinary characteristics of the Warrior Path, the Hunter Path, and the Cultivator Path, but only possesses the extraordinary ability of these pathways to strengthen the body.

And this kind of strange creature doesn't have the IQ of these three paths, it doesn't have the extraordinary ability of long-distance, but it doesn't know how to make weapons.

This led to Harley using a kite to continuously cast curses and black flames on it remotely, and was finally ground to death.

So now, although Harry has never seen this kind of creature, he is not unfamiliar with the big snake in front of him.

And this big snake seemed to be a little harder to hunt than those creatures on the Southern Continent.

For those creatures on the southern continent that have gathered various extraordinary characteristics, they all have one thing in common - their brains are not very good.

Those may have some intelligence, but not high IQ; some are rational, but are still crazy most of the time; have a brain, but don't like to use it.

But the big snake in front of him is different from them, probably because of the influence of the abilities related to dreams and rationality of the Extraordinary Characteristics of the Path of Darkness, its eyes shone with ferocity and madness, but from time to time, some reason and cunning would flash.

In addition, it knows how to use tricks to lure the person holding the wand to come, and set up traps through camouflage, so it probably has a certain ability to think.

So Harry was a little more cautious.

Of course, prudence is limited.After all, for these mixed-type creatures, the weakness in the face of mental attacks is always their most fatal weakness.

The big snake seemed to have expelled the black flames that had been poured into its mouth before, and roared at Harry.

The roar was extremely shrill, as if sawing reinforced concrete with a saw blade that was no longer sharp.

But when it falls into the ears of ordinary creatures, it has a strange charm, trying to pull people into dreams.

Layers of green halos fluctuated, covering Harry's whole body, forcibly blocking out this mournful howl.

At the same time, Harley had determined the snake's weakness and launched a counterattack.

"Bribery!" "Distorted and weakened mental endurance!"

"The Law of Ten Thousand Laws: Inhuman creatures are prohibited from existing here!" "Judgment: The actions of the guilty are restricted!" "Shock!"

Harley used five extraordinary abilities from the gloves on both hands in succession, and directly covered a large area of ​​the spirit world.

The black flame that blasted into the giant snake's mouth before became a bribe to it, forcibly marking the giant snake with the mark of being bribed, and its power was also weakened by several levels.

The mental oppression and sting caused by being labeled a crime makes the snake's madness gradually increase, while its rationality continues to weaken.

The giant snake's mountain-like body has stretched out at this moment, and it keeps flicking its tail and twisting its body in an attempt to relieve the pain.

At the same time, it kept roaring crazily, as if it was calling for the night to come, or maybe it was trying to pull the surrounding creatures into a dream.

It's a pity that this is the spiritual world, and it is a spiritual world with a very special state, and a lot of power was initially taken away from it.

In the current state of the giant snake, which is not particularly rational, it is impossible to accurately make the night fall.

Especially these attacks on the spirit and rationality of the giant snake are constantly tearing at the rationality and soul of the giant snake.

Although the extraordinary items in Harley's hands were only at Sequence Six and Sequence Five levels, the giant snake had a strength barely close to Sequence Three, so a single attack seemed very weak.

However, the frequency of these mental attacks is extremely high, which effectively makes up for this shortcoming.

What's more, for a creature like a giant snake whose power comes from the aggregation of extraordinary characteristics in multiple ways, madness has always been a problem lurking in the mind, so the resistance in related fields is extremely weak.

At this time, the extraordinary ability of the dark night path on the giant snake is playing a role, trying to maintain its own sanity.

But its resistance is still getting weaker and weaker.

Harry didn't make a move in time, but remained hidden and hid around.

The Witch has always been the top assassin. Although it will be a long process to wait for the power of the giant snake to continue to weaken, the Witch is not short of patience.

Of course, during this process, Harley had to push it again to speed it up.

Seeing that the snake's protection of his spiritual level was getting lower and lower, Harry snapped his fingers lightly.

"Disease outbreak!" "Spiritual plague!"

Harley had already planted the plague seed in the giant snake's body before, but the giant snake's physical fitness was extremely strong.

Therefore, the disease cannot be fully developed in a short period of time and cause damage to it.

But now, the snake's resistance is much weaker, and the disease should play a role.

The spiritual plague is also a kind of disease, so under Harley's control, it was successfully hidden in the halo of disease, and it was planted into the brain of the giant snake together.

At this time, the two seeds exploded!
