Chapter 741

"... please come with us at once!"

About the old African witch who failed to rob people, Hagrid took it effortlessly after Maka left the scene.

Seriously, anyone who bumps into an indestructible wall like that will be beaten to pieces, even giants like glop.

As for the old witch's thin body, almost half her life was lost.

Soon, judging by Professor McGonagall who arrived quickly, Hogwarts sent the news of catching the attacker to the Ministry of magic overnight.

In this sensitive period on the night of the end of the competition, Minister of magic schlinger was not surprised that Auror on duty directly called to the office and immediately decided to send people to Hogwarts to bring the attackers back.

After all, scrimger also heard that the target of the attacker was Edward LeMay!

If the old housekeeper was robbed in the British magic world, wouldn't it make a lot of forces around the world scramble to talk to him?

In schlinger's view, this is undoubtedly a major event that can not be ignored! You need to keep an eye on it all the way. You can't even be careless.

Therefore, the action speed of the British Ministry of magic was amazing.

MEG and Hagrid just took the old witch with blood on her forehead to the school hospital and asked Mrs. Pomfrey to stop the bleeding for her. Even before the old witch woke up from her coma, there were more than a dozen Aurors outside the school gate.

Pity these hard-working people who work for the public. Except for three on the night shift, the rest have just returned home to sleep! Don't you see some Aurors with messy hairstyles?

After they routinely left a word, they simply took the old witch away, and whether they were still dizzy or not, they couldn't hear it at all.

Kingsley, who had the last phantom shift, nodded to McGonagall and Hagrid before returning to the Ministry of magic. Their three colleagues of the order of the Phoenix haven't sat down and talked for a long time.

After watching the Auror team take the old witch away, Professor McGonagall and Hagrid returned to the school hospital to see the old housekeeper who was still in the ward and treated by Mrs. Pomfrey.

Well, or Mr. gidrow Lockhart, a big magic actor disguised as an old housekeeper.

"... Mr. Lockhart, Marca just asked me to tell you, 'it's hard for you this time'."

When Professor McGonagall first came to the door of the ward, she found that Lockhart on the hospital bed seemed to have just woke up, and Hagrid was talking to him.

Because he was wrapped by the materialized shadow, and he was thrown on the flying carpet by the old witch, his injury was not heavy.

Yes, the most serious injury is just a broken arm. Under Mrs. Pomfrey's exquisite healing magic, it can be completely healed in a few hours.

In the eyes of witches, non fatal trauma is nothing at all!

"Oh, McLean..."

Lockhart lay limply in bed, drooping his eyelids and feeling a little sleepy - a slight side effect of the therapeutic agent just poured down by Mrs. Pomfrey.

At this moment, the effect of compound decoction on him had disappeared, and his handsome appearance, which made him particularly proud, had not changed at all.

"In fact, at the beginning, he made me become the old man, but I actually refused..." Lockhart muttered vaguely, "if I'm an actor, what I want most is to perform a wonderful script with my own face... You can't let me play, I'll play it right away. What's hard or not after the performance..."

"Mrs. Pomfrey, the bottle of potion just used has only sleepy side effects?" Hagrid turned his head and asked when he saw Lockhart muttering.

But Mrs. Pomfrey was not even interested in answering. She just glanced at Lockhart without expression and turned away.

As they passed the door of the ward, Professor McGonagall nodded to her and greeted her. The former raised his legs and came inside.

"... what hard work can it be for our actors? You know, there are still a large number of dead dragon sets on the Muggle set in a hurry to find a scene with lines... Muggles, it's really not easy..."

Lockhart was still talking in a muddle, and he didn't know what scene he had seen in the Muggle world, which made him still remember.

"Rupert, it's not just Mr. Lockhart this time, but you've worked hard."

After glancing at Lockhart, Professor McGonagall probably thought it best not to talk to him for the time being, so he directly thanked Hagrid.

"No, no, Professor McGonagall." haggard shook his head again and again. "I'm not of much use tonight. If Maka hadn't come back in time, the African witch might have taken Lockhart away."

"It's a great credit that she can be fooled," said Meg earnestly. "If you didn't accompany Lockhart in the play, she might return to the castle and continue to search for Mr. LeMay, which is very dangerous for the students."

"Student..." after hearing this, Hagrid suddenly remembered that there should be another person in his cabin, "Oh! Ernst Taron!"

"What?" Professor McGonagall was stunned.

"It's Ernst Taron, the first grader of Hufflepuff," Hagrid quickly explained. "He suddenly made a noise outside my room and was pulled into my sleeping room and hid."

With these words, Hagrid got up from his chair.

"He should still be in my room at the moment," he said, walking to the door of the ward. "I mean, if he doesn't leave later... I hope the child is all right..."

Hagrid had walked out of the ward before he finished. Behind him, Professor McGonagall followed after another look at Lockhart.

As a result, Lockhart was the only one left in the ward, but he was still chattering. However, looking at his increasingly heavy eyelids and his increasingly light voice, it is estimated that he will fall asleep soon.

……

At about the time when Professor McGonagall took the injured and unconscious old witch to the school hospital, Maka had placed the bewitching monument in the giant cave in the deep mountain of the forbidden forest.

Before he sent it into the cave, he spent a lot of effort. Because as far as the tall bewitching monument is concerned, the entrance to the cave is a little too small.

"Call -"

After putting down the stone tablet, Maka sat down next to her and planned to take a breath first.

The stone of bewitchment has been sealed again, but it must be arranged more after being transported to this cave.

"Gaga, this is the skeleton of the dragon? It's really big enough..."

Maka looked at the bronze eagle flying deeper into the cave. She waited until it completely disappeared into the darkness. Then she stared at the direction of the eagle's disappearance and sorted out some information she got from each other not long ago.

At that time, he asked what the "big trouble" in the other party's mouth meant in the past, but he still didn't get any accurate answer.

This is actually what he expected.

After all, the bronze Eagle couldn't tell the reason from the beginning, and now it's impossible to contradict itself - whether the other party is cheating him or not.

It was because of the doubt in my heart that I didn't go to the next test to ask for, but I just learned it.

According to all kinds of situations in the past, whether Ravenclaw harbors malice or not, her task to the bronze eagle is to guide the so-called "candidate".

Therefore, there is no need for Maka to ask. As long as the bronze Eagle finds that Maka has completed the last test, the next one will come.

Unless, like the last time, even the bronze Eagle itself is in crisis, it will continue to sleep without saying a word.

"Royna Ravenclaw... Royna Ravenclaw..." while Maka repeated the name, the complexities revealed when she heard the test content appeared on her face. "Can you say that so far... All my behaviors are under your control?"

The next test he learned from the bronze eagle is very clear, that is to "study the power source of the bewitching Monument and completely control it".

"Now that you've got this broken stone back, forget it..." the bronze Eagle said at that time, "Eagle, I tell you the truth, this is actually the next test given to you by Roy Na. But this thing is very evil. You should take it easy when you play drums. In case of an accident, it will affect all teachers and students in Hogwarts!"

Moreover, it also points out that the power source of this huge monument is a negative soul rule. For all creatures, the impact it can produce is very serious, and a careless move will lead to disaster.

It's just

"How on earth did Ravenclaw know that I had obtained the stone of bewitchment? Was it prophecy? Divination? Or..."

Although it may be just a coincidence, Maka would rather believe that this is a series of arrangements planned by royna Ravenclaw.

Such a thought, of course, will bring him excess pressure, but at least it will not let him ignore the possible dangers because of his luck.

Just before considering these things that have no clue at all, there is one more thing Maka must think about carefully.

"The stone of bewitchment..." he turned his head again, looked at the huge black stone beside him and said to himself silently, "should I continue to study this thing?"

Every test of royna Ravenclaw seems to force him to make difficult choices again and again.
