Luckily the main story is at Hogwarts
Chapter 46 What’s the plan?
"Boom"
Apply the buff and open the box.
The Resentment Doll, accidentally injured by the War Rabbit, provided Ciel with a level 30 silver bag. After discovering the chocolate factory, he obtained a lucky coin.
The former cannot be done by Hermione, so Ciel does it himself. As a result, it provides Ciel with another spell, which is still a familiar blasting spell, but it is level 30.
Approximately equivalent to. .The power of Dumbledore and Voldemort.
Hermione turned the coin, but unfortunately this time she was not very lucky, it was a Gwent card.
The supplies and equipment had been sorted out, and after a few hours of rest, the four little guys, Charles, stood in front of the stone door on the right.
The place of trial seemed to know their choice. The stone door made a rumbling sound and began to gradually lift upwards.
Harry struggled to hold up the sword with both hands. His status in his aunt's family was comparable to that of a house elf, and he had no sense of presence in the class. This was the first time that the little savior had been entrusted with such an important task. He was both scared and nervous.
Dudley and Hermione were in very bad condition. Needless to say, Dudley's shivering legs were a little weak, and Hermione, even though the little guy's eyes were opened by following Ciel, he was still only an 11-year-old kid after all. girl.
She kept pulling on the bow string, letting it go, and pulling it apart, and she probably didn't even notice that her own arm was a little sore.
"Boom"
The stone door opened.
. . .
"Let's go."
Charles took the lead and walked in first.
Three people followed Charles' footsteps, first Harry, then Hermione. Dudley, who stayed at the end, hesitated before following.
As soon as they stepped behind the stone gate, everyone immediately felt a different feeling.
If the hall was desolate, decayed, and cold before, like a mausoleum that had been silent for countless years and few people had set foot in it, then here, it is filled with the opposite warmth.
It's like returning home, with warmth everywhere.
It does feel like home here.
Standing outside the stone door, I couldn't see clearly here because it seemed like there was a layer of gauze covering it, but as Ciel walked in, they immediately seemed to be in another world.
Everything was clear before my eyes.
Harry looked back subconsciously and found that the hall behind him did not exist at all, the stone door had completely disappeared, and they had no way out.
Take a closer look at the interior of the house.
The setting here is very similar to the setting in Pan's Labyrinth. There is a long table in the middle of the room. The table is piled with sumptuous food, including delicious fruits, exquisite desserts, and tempting aromas. Roast chicken, various pies and sausages.
At the end of the room is a fireplace, which seems to be burning with flames. A completely black painting hangs above the fireplace, with nothing but black on it.
It is also closed here, with no windows or doors.
Although it was warm here, Harry and the little guys still held their breath subconsciously. No one was dazzled by the rich food on the table, not even Dudley, because at the other end of the long table, the fireplace In front of him, there was a monster sitting.
The monster is humanoid. It sits on a huge chair and has two huge feet, but its legs are extremely slender and elongated.
Its skin is grey-green and full of wrinkles. Its body is one piece, between an oval and an inverted triangle. Its arms are very long, almost hanging down to the level of its feet.
And it has no neck. There is a piece of meat protruding from the end of the body, which is its head.
Noticing the little guy entering, it grinned.
"Welcome here."
"Young challengers."
There is a pair of horn-shaped protrusions on the monster's head, which split and extend directly from its forehead, more like horny skin.
It has no nose, only a pair of small eyes, no lips, and a huge gaping mouth, with densely packed teeth clearly exposed.
There are dense tentacles on the chin, like a lion's mane.
"Now.."
It stood up.
"Thunderbolt Explosion"
But before it could leave the chair, Ciel raised his hand and cast a spell on it.
"bang"
Facing the monster's disbelieving eyes, a violent explosion exploded at what seemed to be its heart.
"Thunderbolt Explosion"
Ciel then shouted.
Hermione next to her also widened her eyes. This seems to be different from what they promised. Didn't it mean passing the trial?
"what"
Harry reacted quickly. Although he didn't know why Charles chose to take action directly, he knew what he should do.
With a childish cry to embolden himself, Harry raised his sword and stumbled towards the monster.
At the same time, Ciel also began to move forward, and at the same time issued a third curse.
"Thunderbolt Explosion"
Still a blasting spell.
The level 8 wild boar Hunk dropped him a level 8 one-time spell, which was Thunderbolt Explosion. Its power was roughly equivalent to that of a young wizard in the second and third years of Hogwarts.
Ciel had used it before in Steam City. The moment he used this spell, Ciel felt a very slight sense of destruction spreading in his heart, and he immediately remembered this feeling.
I tried it several times in the lobby before, and it worked as expected.
He didn't dare to try other magic easily, even if he had a guess, because once something went wrong, in this situation, the consequences would be almost unsolvable.
So facing this boss, Ciel did not hesitate. He raised his hand and used the most powerful spell to hit it. After all, the obstacles were completely meaningless to it.
And in fact. .Neither does the Explosion Curse.
"bang"
After three explosions, there was not even a single scratch on the monster's body. It had a sneer in its little eyes, and with a sudden swing of its long and thick arm, it knocked Harry away with its sword.
Charles waved his wand in time to avoid the tragedy of Harry hitting the wall. Even so, the monster's blow was not light. Harry fell to the ground and could not get up for a long time, and the sword was thrown away. To the side.
"Thunderbolt Explosion"
"armor.."
Charles still released the wand calmly, and the next moment, he saw the monster seemed to be coming towards him. Just as he was about to release the iron armor spell, the monster's arm had already inserted from an angle and threw him away. flew out.
Just like Harry who was defenseless before.
"We are tested"
After rolling twice on the ground, Ciel shouted loudly before he could get up.
"From now on."
As Ciel's words fell, the monster that originally wanted to rush over and strike Ciel suddenly stopped. It stood on the spot, its tall figure almost touching the ceiling of the room.
The scene was quiet for a while.
The monster stopped moving, and Hermione and Dudley, who were still where they were, didn't move either, because they were still confused.
The little girl didn't react at all, and the whole situation was already in chaos. She was still hesitating whether to release the arrow and how to release the arrow. The battle seemed to have come to an end again.
As for Dudley, he held the dagger tightly and looked at the tall monster tremblingly. He didn't look like he was going to stab the monster to death, but he was stabbing himself to death with the dagger.
Only Ciel took a few deep breaths before getting up from the ground. He patted the dust, picked up the wand, and inserted it into his belt.
He glanced at Harry lying on the ground and the sword beside him, and winked at Hermione.
The little girl understood what Ciel meant. She glanced at the monster that was motionless, gritted her teeth, dragged Dudley and ran towards Harry, and then helped him up.
Harry groaned and looked like he had fallen hard.
Ciel also walked over. He squeezed Hermione behind him and supported Harry, blocking the monster's front and sight.
"Now, begin your trial."
He said.
. . .
The monster never moved.
It just looked at Ciel and others quietly, watching them lift Harry up and get back together again.
"Do you think."
"You are very smart"
It's like watching a play.
It wasn't until the play came to an end that it spoke in a slow tone, with almost overflowing ridicule in its voice.
"I always have."
Ciel's voice was calm.
"Aren't you afraid that I will eat you?"
"Not afraid."
"By your magic"
the monster asked again.
"By ourselves we can pass the trial."
"Even if you pass the trial, why can't I eat you?"
"you will not."
Ciel's voice remained calm.
There seemed to be a sneer on the monster's human-like face, and then in the next moment, it suddenly bent down and put its ferocious and ugly face in front of the four little guys, and in front of Ciel.
"I can"
it growled.
The monster's voice was like thunder, its mouth opened wide, and its sharp fangs were like saw teeth. It roared like an enraged lion, and its densely packed tentacles moved automatically without wind.
The sound wave turned into a substantial sound wave, slamming into Ciel's face, and even his hair was fluttering due to this invisible impact.
Ciel even felt some kind of viscous liquid hitting his chest.
"what"
There was a scream from behind.
The monster's movements were so terrifying. It looked as if it would bite off Ciel's head in one bite at the next moment. Hermione screamed, but Dudley did not scream.
But if you look closely, you will find that Dudley's eyes are blurry, probably because he was frightened and confused.
Ciel endured the monster's roar and stopped talking.
After the roar, the monster just looked at Ciel quietly. The atmosphere was so tense that even Harry, who still felt a heavy pain in his chest, held his breath.
Because he was standing with Ciel, the monster was very close to him.
After an unknown amount of time, the monster curled his lips as if he was bored.
"Okay, maybe you guessed it right, maybe I won't eat you, then, as you wish."
The monster's small eyes were fixed on Ciel.
Suddenly, its gaze moved slightly, and then fell on Harry.
"You think I will choose you, you smart little guy"
The monster showed a mocking smile, its sharp teeth covered with sticky saliva. It gently raised its hand and stretched out a finger full of wrinkles, almost as big as Harry's head.
It gently pushed aside the broken hair on Harry's forehead with its fingers, and stared at the lightning-shaped scar on his forehead under Harry's nervous gaze, which did not dare to take a breath.
"Do not."
it said.
"I choose..."
"he"
As the monster finished speaking, its finger suddenly turned in a direction, skipping Harry and the equally nervous Hermione, and landed directly on the stunned Dudley.
The monster's fingers seemed to have some kind of magic power. Even though the chosen Dudley was shaking, even though his legs were too weak to lift him up, he still stepped forward like a puppet on strings.
The chosen one was Dudley.
Not to mention Dudley himself was stunned on the spot, even Harry and Hermione were shocked, because the little savior knew very well what kind of character his cousin was.
No matter what the trial is, if he takes it. .
what is that
Harry, who didn't know where his glasses were thrown, suddenly saw something stuck on Dudley's shoulder behind his back. It looked round, but he couldn't see clearly.
Harry was most familiar with Dudley, so why didn't he remember that there was such an ugly patch on Dudley's clothes. .What is this.
Apply the buff and open the box.
The Resentment Doll, accidentally injured by the War Rabbit, provided Ciel with a level 30 silver bag. After discovering the chocolate factory, he obtained a lucky coin.
