Chapter 278： Poor Lu Wei

Chapter 278 Unlucky Lu Wei

 The surroundings fell into an eerie silence again.

Hagrid, who was waiting nearby, finally couldn't help but ask: "Is the spell effective?"

Although Albert failed to use the Flying Curse last time, this time with Dumbledore here, Hagrid is confident that it will succeed this time.

"I don't know." Albert shook his head and said. They tried the flying spell here just to give it a try. Anyway, even if they failed, they would not lose anything.

 The four of them were waiting in place. If this move didn't succeed...if the three-headed dog didn't fly...then they would have to choose another method.

I believe that if Dumbledore is given a little time, he should be able to find the three-headed dog.

Hagrid prayed in his heart and looked around, hoping to see Lu Wei flying towards this direction.

However, they waited for a few minutes, but still failed to wait for the three-headed dog to fly. However, there was a faint noise from the other end of the forest, which immediately attracted the attention of the four people.

 “Let’s go and have a look.” Dumbledore’s glasses were shining with a strange light as he strode forward, not looking like an old man at all.

Professor Smith and Albert had also realized something and followed Dumbledore's footsteps. Only Hagrid was still confused and did not understand what was going on.

 “Follow quickly, it might be Lu Wei.” Albert turned around 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 a pain in the **** to walk quickly on the snow. Although Albert is taller than children of the same age, he still cannot avoid leg pain. Short facts.

Short legs were a disadvantage in terms of running and walking. Hagrid ran over quickly, picked up Albert with one hand, and regardless of his objections, he put the man on his shoulders and chased him forward with rapid strides.

 This is my first experience like this, and it’s quite bumpy to be honest. Sitting on someone else's shoulders was not a pleasant experience, at least for Albert.

"Hagrid, can you put me down?" Albert said helplessly. He would rather run down by himself than be carried on his shoulders like this.

"You are running too slow, and I don't want you to encounter ambush attacks by Acromantula again." Hagrid had already caught up with Dumbledore and Professor Smith, and there was no way he would leave Albert here.

The sound that just came was not far ahead.

When the three of them hurriedly chased after each other, they found a cave made of tree roots. It seemed like... Well, they were hit by something, or...

Albert's face twitched, and he seemed to be able to figure out what was going on here.

"It was hiding here just now." Professor Smith stepped forward to check the entrance of the cave and found some deer bones. He whispered: "It should be due to the flying curse that the three-headed dog directly destroyed the cave."

The entrance to the crypt was in the opposite direction from where they came, and the space inside was not large to begin with, so it was directly destroyed.

Smith's fingers crossed the vines above, rubbed the blood on it, and whispered: "The Flying Curse is useful for three-headed dogs."

 For some reason, Albert always felt an inexplicable sense of disobedience in his heart, and he frowned and looked at Professor Smith.

"It ran away." Dumbledore pointed to the footprints and a little bit of blood on it and said, "It was probably a little injured."

 “I’ll chase him!” Hagrid was ready to follow the footsteps and catch up.

“No need, as long as you use the flying spell once, you can pull the three-headed dog over.” Professor Smith said.

The feeling of dissonance is getting stronger.

 Albert looked at Professor Smith and narrowed his eyes. He already knew where the sense of dissonance lay.

“The flying curse, Lu Wei...is it Legilimency?”

“It seems that level three of Occlumency is not very safe.” Albert sighed inwardly. He felt that Professor Smith must be very good at Legilimency.

"What's wrong?" Professor Smith felt Albert's gaze and turned to ask.

"Nothing, let's get started, lest Lu Wei runs away." Albert looked away at Dumbledore and 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 either.

 It's just that it met Dumbledore.

 Dumbledore, who owned the Elder Wand, cast extremely powerful spells. In addition, Albert, who took the elixir of blessing, also showed very strong magical power. Level 4 of the wizard's bloodline was not just thrown there for display.

Now, Albert can exert the magical power of an adult wizard, with the help of the elixir of blessing, and he can cast the flying spell perfectly.

 Smith is a pure-blood wizard and has good attainments in black magic defense. Naturally, his magical power is not weak.

The three of them worked together, and even if Lu Wei was reluctant, he would still be dragged over by the flying curse.

 “Make room!” Dumbledore noticed something flying towards this direction and reminded everyone to make room.

 The four of them quickly made a clearing.

 The three-headed dog flew over whiningly, looking a little miserable. Hagrid immediately stepped forward and hugged Lu Wei's neck, and angrily slapped his head with his hand.

Albert looked at this scene with his mouth twitching. The three-headed dog, which obviously looked very ferocious, felt pitiful when it fell into Hagrid's hands.

"Okay Hagrid, let's put it on first." Dumbledore conjured three collars and chains and asked Hagrid to put them on the three-headed dog's neck. "Take it back first and let Silvanus put it on." It heals the wound on the head."

“Oh, okay!” Hagrid nodded repeatedly, looked at Lu Wei, and slapped his restless head, “I’ll let you run around without food, and you’ll become thinner.”

“Hagrid, is Lu Wei an adult?”

Albert looked at the large dog in front of him and took a few steps back.

The three-headed dog is so tough. If it is accidentally attacked by a sneak attack, it may be bitten to death.

Of course, Lu Wei's saliva and the stench from his mouth were the main reasons for Albert's retreat. It was probably because he often ate rotten meat during this period, and the smell 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 until Luwei reaches adulthood before sending him back to Greece? I guarantee that he will not cause trouble again."

"Hagrid..." Dumbledore seemed to have thought of something, so he changed his words, "Okay, but you need to keep an eye on it and don't let other students find it."

 “I will keep it a secret,” Albert said immediately.

“Me too.” Professor Smith looked up and down at the three-headed dog, as if it was his first time seeing such a magical creature.

“Is this the first time Professor Smith has seen a three-headed dog?” Albert asked curiously.

“Well, it’s the first time.” Professor Smith said with a smile, “But it’s pretty much what I expected.”

The four of them went directly to Professor Kettlebo's cabin. He was willing to help Lu Wei treat his head. Albert and Smith left early and returned to the castle.

"Professor Smith, I have made some breakthroughs in magic writing recently. I may know how to open the secret door of Ravenclaw's Chamber of Secrets." Albert smiled and said to Professor Smith before the Elixir of Fortune was over. .

“Really, that’s great.” Professor Smith looked very excited and couldn’t help but ask, “When will you be free?”

“I’ll give it a try when I get back, but I won’t be 100% successful.” Albert added.

"If you fail, just keep trying." Smith comforted Albert patiently.
