Chapter 370 Light and Dark Fields and Passive Triggering Cards
Cedric was also confused when he met two wizards riding broomsticks in the middle of the night: Isn't this a coincidence? You know, there are not many wizards in total, and it is a small probability to encounter two wizards in the night sky.
Not knowing the origin of the other party, Cedric secretly increased his vigilance.
"Is that the direction to Hogsmeade?" Pisces saw the guard on Cedric's face, so he took the initiative to speak in an attempt to lower Cedric's guard. He recognized the style of broom the other party was riding. It was the top-of-the-line broomstick and firebolt. Once they disturb the other party, neither he nor Gemini are good at speed, so they will definitely not be able to catch up.
As a result, before Cedric could reply, the Gemini on the side exclaimed: "Damn it, are you riding a Firebolt?!"
Pisces couldn't help but slap himself on the forehead: He was so crazy that he agreed to team up with such a person.
In fact, if Pisces thinks about it from the perspective of Taurus, they will understand that Gemini will definitely be sent out to do tasks, and Taurus doesn't want to be crowded in a cave with him!
However, Gemini's strange behavior dispelled Cedric's vigilance. He smiled and nodded, indicating that his broom was indeed a Firebolt.
A look of envy flashed in Gemini's eyes: He has wanted a broom like this for a long time, but he has been busy with tasks recently...
The terrifying feeling of weightlessness and the increasingly shrill sound of wind in his ears did not change Cedric's mood. As a veteran who has played Quidditch for three years, this small scene is nothing to worry about. The falling speed when swooping down to catch the Snitch is several times faster than this.
The light was very soft, and the body would feel warm when it shone on it, but Cedric let out a painful scream, and at this time, there was a pain from his soul on his shoulder.
Gemini wanted to chat with Cedric for a while longer, but Pisces couldn't wait any longer. He suddenly took action and threw a magic spell at Cedric, but Cedric easily dodged it.
At this time, she was not the only one to wake up. Les and Dumbledore were awakened from their dreams by Helga's movements at the same time.
However, Gemini and Pisces are two people after all, and they have an advantage in numbers, so Cedric soon became unable to hold on.
The next second, there was an explosion in Helga's office, and Dumbledore appeared in the office.
When Gemini saw that he had succeeded, he immediately smiled.
Cedric finally landed lightly on the ground, casually putting the malfunctioning Firebolt aside, holding the wand in his hand and looking coldly at the two people who landed dozens of feet away opposite him.
Cedric ignored the consumption of magic power and directly tried his best to communicate with the soil, trying his best to fight against the weird field of Gemini.
The atmosphere suddenly became awkward. No matter it was Cedric or Gemini Pisces, everyone stopped talking.
————
Helga opened her eyes suddenly, and she felt that the magic item she left for Cedric was triggered. Her sleepiness disappeared immediately, and she rolled over from the bed and sat up. She understood that Cedric must have been in great danger.
Compared with Cedric, Gemini is much calmer and calmer, and his dark realm is rapidly devouring Cedric's magic power to strengthen itself. Cedric, who has not awakened his true realm, is too passive when meeting someone who truly possesses his realm. But compared to no field, Cedric is still far ahead - at least he can last for a long time, if he is just fighting Gemini.
"The realm of light and darkness, open -" After blasting a flying earth cone into powder and witnessing his counterattack spell being swallowed by Cedric with an earth wall, Gemini could no longer hold back and directly opened his own realm. .
Cedric responded in a deep voice: "Hogwarts, Cedric Diggory."
Cedric didn't answer, but Pisces glanced at Cedric in surprise, and then discovered that fluctuations in a similar field were indeed emanating from his body.
"Look, he's quite knowledgeable." Looking at Cedric's skillful control of the malfunctioning broom, Pisces smiled happily: "Jiminy, now you don't have to worry about only picking up a few pieces of wood. "
The robe automatically wrapped around her body, and Helga was ready to set off in the shortest possible time. Then without any hesitation, she directly forcibly took back part of the castle's control authority, and then used the authority to deactivate the Hogwarts campus. range of restrictions.
"Get rid of this guy quickly and go back early. I also want to experience the legendary Firebolt." Gemini glanced at Pisces and dived directly towards the ground.
If this continues, the soil he activated will disappear within a few minutes.
Pisces curled his lips: It was at this time that Jiminy became motivated.
…
Cedric tried his best to force the soil to slide backwards with him, and successfully escaped from the dark realm, but his shoulders were also covered with a layer of shadow that was similar in color to the dark realm.
Les didn't hesitate at all, wrapped the quilt around his body with his backhand, and appeared in Helga's office the next second with the wand in hand. The quilt on his body automatically turned into a Roman robe, and his eyes were fixed on the slowly closing portal at the door of Hufflepuff's bedroom.
Cedric took the opportunity to silently activate the nearby land. He needed time to prepare, but the two weirdos in front of him actually gave him precious time.
Cedric was anxious, and Gemini was even more anxious than him. In his opinion, it was extremely shameful to be tripped up by such a young man and even fall into a disadvantage for a time.
Whoosh——
This is a very reasonable speculation. Who would have thought that they actually wanted to rob people more?
Hogwarts has a Dumbledore, which is difficult enough. If this guy is let go tonight, Hogwarts will have two wizards who have awakened their domains in a few years! And this guy is much younger than Dumbledore, so it is even more necessary to keep him here. It is really the blessing of the gods that they accidentally intercepted such a big fish!
"Flying sand and running stones!"
"I thought it was something else, it turned out to be a pseudo-domain." After seeing the way Cedric drove the soil with his own eyes, Pisces laughed: "If you want to have a real domain, wait another ten years!"
"This state is enough to get rid of you!" After fighting for so long and encountering several killing moves in a row, Cedric's heart was already filled with anger. He no longer spared his magic power and directly used all his strength to drive the soil that he had activated.
"You two, wealth should be earned through hard work and sweat."
All of a sudden, Cedric had the upper hand. The various animals and throwing weapons formed by the soil even made Gemini and Pisces feel flustered and exhausted. By manipulating the soil, Cedric's flexibility was greatly improved, and the two people's spells could not even touch the corners of his clothes.
"Don't worry, it's not broken." Pisces knows his colleague too well. His spell will only interfere with the Firebolt, making it unable to fly, but will not cause damage to it. If Gemini wants it, he can just pick it up after the battle.
Gemini:?
"Very good, since you are a person with a domain, you are not an unknown person. I am the Secret Order Pisces, and he is Gemini. Young man, tell me your name!"
This is a special teleportation magic they developed back then, which can allow you to teleport to a specific point accurately. It is usually used by them on magic props to save students' lives.
However, Cedric also had his difficulties: he had not awakened the real domain, and could not expand the scope of influence on the soil as recklessly as his teacher. Now such a large-scale attack consumes a lot of magic power. He was a little overwhelmed in less than a minute, and cold sweat began to appear on his forehead.
When the two were in a stalemate, Pisces had already drawn the magic circle and wrote a circle of runes around the magic circle.
"Hey!" Gemini cried out in pain. In his opinion, Pisces' behavior was simply a waste of natural resources.
Cedric, who was caught off guard, failed to dodge this time. After being hit, the Firebolt lost control in an instant and fell to the ground.
Gemini and Pisces cooperated tacitly. While Cedric was distracted, his dark domain suddenly rushed forward and climbed directly onto Cedric's shoulder.
Dumbledore opened his eyes with a serious look: he didn't know what happened, but he knew that the school's ban on apparition had been lifted. His brain worked quickly, and soon locked onto the person who was most likely to do this - Smith White.
Now not only Cedric, but also his accomplice Pisces was silent.
"Armor protection -"
"Light!" He raised his hand, and a light spread out with him as the center, instantly covering the entire area.
Fortunately, he was not unlucky today. The soil in the nearby area had no traces of magic left by others, so he could use it. Although the control power was far less than the soil in the dungeon, it also made Cedric feel certain.
"In the name of Hela, the Queen of the Underworld, I, Pises, curse you, Cedric Diggory!" After saying this, a trace of sickly paleness flashed across his face, and his robe was immediately wet with sweat, as if he was experiencing great pain.
Cedric, who was falling rapidly, tried to restart the Firebolt, but it had no effect at all. After realizing that he could not do anything, he immediately began to prepare other means of self-rescue.
After doing all this, he stood in the center of the magic circle, raised his hand, pointed at Cedric with his index finger and said--
It was not easy for Helga to get a student she liked from Hufflepuff College in that state, so it was normal to be anxious.
Dumbledore first restarted the school's ban, making it impossible to Apparate here, and then began to think: the witch who returned from ancient times was good at using food magic and puppet making, her style of doing things was different from ordinary people, and she also had some authority in the castle...
He directly began to try to communicate with the soil in this area, and used a shock-absorbing spell on his broom, which greatly slowed down the speed of falling.
Under the attack of the two, Cedric's control over the soil collapsed, and he himself lost consciousness, fell to the ground with black eyes.
The soil came alive and swallowed Cedric in one gulp as if it had life.
At this time, the magic power in Cedric's body rushed out like a river water when the dam broke, making his forehead covered with large and small beads of sweat, and his face was bloodless.
"Don't treat us as ordinary thieves. We should be classified as dark wizards!" Gemini said proudly.
Pisces:?
'Sure enough, these two people are not good people! ' Cedric suddenly realized that these two wizards who came from nowhere were probably tempted by money and planned to rob his Firebolt.
Without hesitation, Les turned a piece of parchment on the desk into a mask and covered his face, and then he stepped into the portal that was gradually shrinking.
Pisces silently stepped back a few steps and drew a magic circle on the ground, not knowing what he wanted to do.
Gemini and Pisces launched a tentative attack on Cedric, but he easily resolved it. The three of them fired seven or eight spells at each other, and various lights flew around in the night sky, but they could not do anything to each other.
Without caring to avoid suspicion, he walked directly into Professor White's bedroom and found that she had disappeared. Looking at the bed that was still warm, Dumbledore frowned: Sure enough, it was her who forcibly broke the school's ban, but why, who is she?
In an instant, the ground was covered by a layer of shadow, and it extended towards Cedric at a very fast speed.
After narrowly dodging Gemini's explosive spell, Pisces's green spell had already flown in front of Cedric. As a last resort, Cedric moved the soil under his feet, forming a wave of soil, pushing him a foot to the side, and only then did he barely avoid Pisces' spell.
"Phantom haunting!"
He still had a glimmer of fantasy, thinking that if he said the name of Hogwarts, the two people in front of him would retreat. But what Cedric didn't know was that after learning that he was born in Hogwarts, Gemini and Pisces were even more determined to kidnap him.
Gemini cleared his throat and told Cedric seriously that the two of them were actually attracted by his body, and the broom was just a convenience.
Pisces, who failed to surprise, did not show a look of disappointment. He waved his left hand, and the spell that had deviated from the target and flew out suddenly made a 180-degree turn, turned around and flew straight towards Cedric's broom, hitting the Firebolt under his crotch like a meteor.
"Don't let that kid smash into a pulp. We have to keep his body intact." Gemini was relieved to know that the Firebolt was fine, and he began to shift his energy to the current task of the two.
Seeing this teleportation magic circle, Les understood why Helga forcibly lifted the ban in the middle of the night.
Gemini frowned, and noticed Cedric's unusual movement. He looked up in surprise, "You actually have a domain too?"
When the shadow came into contact with the soil controlled by Cedric, Cedric felt that the soil he controlled was melting at a very fast speed like frost under the sun.
Cedric felt that his stomach was as if he had been hit hard by a punch, and he felt a piercing pain. The pain made his eyes black and he couldn't help but arch his body.
Dumbledore took action immediately.
Just when Gemini and the others thought they had succeeded, they found that Cedric had a terrifying magic fluctuation. At the same time, a bracelet on Cedric's wrist quietly turned into dust and merged into the soil under him.
After Les entered the portal, it suddenly glowed brightly, expanded outwards, and then disappeared.
"I know," Pisces responded impatiently, "Just use the killing curse, it won't leave any external injuries."
