Chapter 278 Unlucky Lu Wei
The surroundings fell into a strange silence again.
Hagrid, who was waiting by the side, finally couldn't help but asked, "Does the spell work?"
Although Albert failed to use the Flying Curse last time, but with Dumbledore here this time, Hagrid is confident that he will succeed this time.
"I don't know." Albert shook his head and said, they tried the Flying Curse here just to try it out, anyway, even if they failed, there was no loss.
The four of them were all waiting in place. If this trick didn't work...if the three-headed dog didn't come flying...then they had to choose another method.
I believe that as long as Dumbledore is given a little more time, he should be able to find the three-headed dog.
Hagrid prayed in his heart while looking around, hoping to see Lu Wei flying towards this side.
However, they waited for a few minutes, but they still couldn't wait for the three-headed dog to fly, but there was a faint sound from the other end of the forest, which immediately attracted the attention of the four.
"Go and have a look." Dumbledore's glasses shone with a strange light, striding forward, not like an old man at all.
Professor Smith and Albert had also realized something, and followed Dumbledore's pace one after another. Only Hagrid was still confused and didn't understand what happened.
"Follow up, it may be Lu Wei." Albert turned his head to remind Hagrid, and quickly followed the footsteps of the two people in front of him.
The snow in the Forbidden Forest is not too thick, but it is still very painful to walk quickly on the snow. Although Albert is already taller than children of the same age, he still cannot avoid legs. short facts.
Short legs showed disadvantages in running and walking. Hagrid ran over quickly, picked up Albert with one hand, and put Albert on his shoulders regardless of his objections, and strode forward to chase after him.
This was the first time I had such an experience, and to be honest, it was very bumpy. Sitting on other people's shoulders is not a pleasant experience, at least for Albert.
"Hagrid, can you put me down." Albert said helplessly, he would rather go down and run by himself than be held on his shoulders like this.
"You're running too slowly, and, besides, I don't want you to be attacked by an acromantula again." Hagrid had already caught up with Dumbledore and Professor Smith, and it was impossible for him to leave Albert here.
The sound that came just now was not far ahead.
When the three hurriedly chased after them, they found a crypt made of tree roots, which seemed to be... um, they were hit by something, or...
Albert's face twitched, and he seemed to be able to think about what happened here.
"It was hiding here just now." Professor Smith stepped forward to check the entrance of the cave, found some deer bones, and said in a low voice: "It should be related to the flying curse, and the three-headed dog directly smashed the crypt."
The entrance of the crypt was in the opposite direction from where they came, and the space inside was not that big, so it was directly destroyed.
Smith slid his fingers across the vine man above, rubbed the blood on it, and whispered: "The Flying Curse is useful for the three-headed dog."
I don't know why, Albert always felt an inexplicable sense of disobedience, and frowned at Professor Smith.
"It ran away." Dumbledore pointed to the footprints and a little bit of blood on it and said, "It probably suffered a little injury."
"I'll go after it!" Hagrid was about to follow the footprints and catch up.
"No need, as long as you use the Flying Curse once, you can pull the three-headed dog over." Professor Smith said.
The sense of disobedience is stronger.
Albert looked at Professor Smith and narrowed his eyes. He already knew where the sense of disobedience was.
"Flying Curse, Lu Wei...is it Legilimency?"
"It seems that Occlumency level three is not very safe." Albert sighed in his heart. He felt that Professor Smith must be very good at Legilimency.
"What's the matter?" Professor Smith felt Albert's gaze and turned his head to ask.
"It's nothing, let's start, lest Lu Wei run away." Albert looked away at Dumbledore, nodded.
"Then do it again!" Dumbledore also raised his wand.
Actually, Lu Wei is really unlucky. Although the magical creature like the three-headed dog is not as resistant to magic as the fire dragon, it is not weak.
Just, it met Dumbledore.
Dumbledore, who has the Elder Wand, casts extremely powerful spells. In addition, Albert, who was taking Felicity Potion, also showed very strong magical power, and the level 4 of the wizard's blood was not just thrown there for display.
Now, Albert can exert the magical power of an adult wizard, and with the help of Felicity Potion, the Flying Charm is also perfect.
Smith is a pure-blood wizard, and has a good attainment in defense against the dark arts, and his magic power is naturally not weak.
The three of them worked together, even if Lu Wei was reluctant, they would still be dragged here by the Flying Curse.
"Make way!" Dumbledore noticed something flying in this direction, and reminded everyone to make room.
The four of them quickly vacated an open space.
After the three-headed dog came whining, it looked a bit miserable. Hagrid immediately stepped forward and put his arms around Lu Wei's neck, and patted Lu Wei on the head with his hands angrily.
Albert looked at this scene, the corners of his mouth twitched. The three-headed dog, which obviously looked fierce, fell into Hagrid's hands, which made people feel pitiful.
"Okay, Hagrid, put it on first." Dumbledore conjured up three collars and chains, and asked Hagrid to put it on the three-headed dog's neck. "Take it back first, and let Silvanos give it to him." It heals the wound on the head."
"Oh, okay!" Hagrid nodded again and again, looked at Lu Wei again, and slapped it on the restless head, "Let you run around, have nothing to eat, and lose weight."
"Hagrid, is Lu Wei an adult yet?"
Albert looked at the large dog in front of him, and couldn't help but take a few steps back to the side.
The three-headed dog is so tough, if it is accidentally attacked, it might be killed.
Of course, Lu Wei's saliva and the stench coming from his mouth were the main reasons for Albert's retreat. It was probably the reason why he often ate carrion during this period, and the taste was really smoky.
"Not yet, it may take a few more months to reach adulthood." Hagrid thought for a while and begged, "Can I wait for Lu Wei to become an adult before sending him back to Greece, and I guarantee that he won't cause trouble again."
"Hagrid..." Dumbledore seemed to have thought of something, and then changed his words, "Okay, but you need to keep an eye on it, and don't let other students find out."
"I will keep it a secret." Albert said immediately.
"Me too." Professor Smith looked up and down the three-headed dog, as if it was the first time he had seen such a magical creature.
"Did Professor Smith see a three-headed dog for the first time?" Albert asked curiously.
"Well, it's the first time." Professor Smith said with a smile, "However, it's about the same as I expected."
The four went directly to Professor Kettlebo's hut. He was willing to help Lu Wei heal his head, so Albert and Smith left early and returned to the castle.
"Professor Smith, I have recently made a small breakthrough in runes, and I may know how to open the secret door of Ravenclaw's secret room." Albert said to Professor Smith with a smile while the Felicity Elixir was not over. .
"Really, that's really great." Professor Smith looked very excited, and couldn't help asking, "When are you free?"
"I'll try it when I go back, but I'm not 100% successful." Albert added.
"If you fail, just keep trying." Smith comforted Albert patiently.
