Chapter 155: Snape's Old Friend
The green light hit Hof's abdomen, and something incredible happened at this moment.
The Killing Curse is a sure-killing curse. If you get hit by it, you will die. The soul of the person who is hit by the curse will leave your body instantly.
But Hof had no effect, and Hagrid behind him looked at him in horror.
"Hof, what are you doing!?" Hagrid was almost nervous and couldn't organize his words.
Hof didn't explain it, he had an ulterior secret, and he had to leave Hogwarts at dawn.
The two people on the opposite side were also stunned. They survived the Killing Curse, what kind of monster is he?
"What? You are Hough!" Wormtail's ugly face revealed an ecstatic expression.
"He's the person the master is looking for? It doesn't take much effort to get it." Little Barty raised the corner of his mouth, and stuck out his tongue in a symbolic manner.
At this time, Sean also woke up. He was unconscious for less than half a minute. With the improvement of magic power, his magic resistance also increased. I believe that a stun spell in the future will not be enough to make Sean unconscious.
"Hagrid, Hough!" Sean saw the two of them from under Wormtail's armpit.
Wormtail hadn't noticed that Sean was awake yet, and no one could have imagined that a third-year student would wake up from a swooning spell in less than thirty seconds.
"Let you sneak up on me." Sean seized this excellent opportunity and gave Barty Jr. and Wormtail a blow in the head.
"Blind me." Sean thought to himself.
He was only one meter away from Batty Jr. At such a close distance, casting spells was a must.
Sean cast the Blinding Curse, which is the highest level among the few silent spells he has mastered so far, with seven magic frames.
Little Barty is strong, stronger than ordinary Aurors, and a stun spell will definitely be ineffective against him. Sean must seize the opportunity of this blow.
The white glow from Sean's hand hit little Barty, and in an instant, little Barty lost all vision in front of him.
Wormtail was shocked, and of course Sean would not let him go, so he repeated the old trick and hit Wormtail with the Blinding Curse.
Wormtail covered his eyes in panic as Sean fell off his back.
"Hoff, hurry up!" Sean shouted as he ran.
Taking advantage of Little Barty's blindness, Hof immediately cast a spell on him, but his blindness was too short, and his vision began to recover in just a second.
Barty Jr. has a lot of combat experience. He cast a flying spell almost at the same time as he was blinded. Before Hof's attack hit him, Barty Jr. soared into the air.
Dumbledore finally noticed something strange outside the castle, wrapped in a light gray silk nightgown, and opened the window.
Little Barty felt bad and told him that he had to withdraw now. As expected, he had just flown 20 meters outside the school when Dumbledore suddenly appeared under the Whomping Willow.
The only person in the school who can use apparition is the headmaster, but apparation needs a foothold, and Dumbledore has nothing to do with little Barty flying away in the air.
Wormtail was not so lucky. Although he felt bad and immediately turned into a mouse and wanted to escape, Sean and Hough didn't give him a chance.
"The Arrow of the Wind." Sean waved his palm, and a stone on the ground shot towards Wormtail like a bullet.
The stone hit the mouse on the back, and its speed equaled its weight. The stone pushed the mouse seven or eight meters away. You couldn't see Wormtail's expression on the mouse's head, but it must have hurt.
"Roses and thorns." Hof waved his wand, and a rose grew from Wormtail's body, and thorny vines wrapped around his mouse's body, immobilizing him.
"Peter!" Dumbledore raised his voice, walking towards Wormtail.
Wormtail suddenly changed back into a human form, and the vines on his body also grew bigger.
Still tightly wrapped around Wormtail.
Wormtail was coughing non-stop now because of the stone attack he had just received.
"Dumbledore, listen to me."
Dumbledore waved his hand and cast a Silencing Curse, Wormtail's lips seemed to be zipped, and he couldn't speak a word.
"I only listen to what they say." Dumbledore walked past Wormtail lying on the ground with cold eyes, and walked towards Sean and the others.
"Professor." Sean and Hagrid stepped forward and said.
"What's going on here?" Dumbledore asked.
Hagrid hesitated for a moment, he didn't know anything, and the two looked at Sean.
"Professor, let me tell." Sean bit the bullet and had to tell the story of the Marauder's Map.
But he hid some things, like the Marauder's Map, which he pretended to have gotten by chance.
"Let me talk about the rest." Hagrid said after Sean passed out.
He looked at Hof strangely, "Professor, before that, I have a question to ask."
"What's up?"
"Will anyone survive the Killing Curse?" Hagrid asked.
Dumbledore replied affirmatively, "No."
"After Sean fell into a coma, Hoff and I called Barty Jr. and the others, and Barty Jr.'s Killing Curse shot at me, and Hough blocked the Killing Curse for me with his body." Hagrid narrated as calmly as possible. this incredible thing.
Dumbledore's expression changed slightly, but he quickly returned to normal. He didn't seem surprised by this impossible sounding thing.
"What happened when I was unconscious!?" Even Sean couldn't believe it.
"Let's talk about this later, Sean, go and call Professor Snape and Professor McGonagall to my office." Dumbledore said.
Obviously, Dumbledore knew something about Hof's secret.
Xiao En invited the two professors to go to the principal's office together in his pajamas. It was already 12:30 in the middle of the night. When he was woken up at this point, the two professors also realized that something important had happened.
As soon as the two professors entered the office, they saw Wormtail lying on the ground with his back facing them. They walked up with doubts on their faces. When they saw the front, they were both taken aback.
Especially Snape, when he was a student, he and the four of Wormtail were deadly enemies. At that time, everyone thought that Wormtail was dead, but now a "dead man" was lying alive in front of him.
"Peter Pettigrew!" Snape looked up at Dumbledore suspiciously, his eyes were asking, "Professor, what's going on?"
"Now it's your turn to speak." Dumbledore waved his hand again, breaking Wormtail's silence spell.
"Severus!" Wormtail looked at Snape's cold face in fear.
"When I have time to tell you about the past, let me tell you about your present." Dumbledore said.
Wormtail suddenly faltered. He was now in the enemy's base camp, surrounded by core personnel of the enemy. If he said a wrong word, Voldemort might never stand up again.
"I am innocent, Voldemort forced me." Wormtail said pitifully.
"I believe you are a ghost." Sean thought to himself.
Voldemort is worthy of being a demon king of the generation. In the Chamber of Secrets, he somehow felt that Hogwarts was not peaceful tonight. After Wormtail was captured, he ran out of the school overnight.
