Sean saw the dull look on the girl's face, and he was heartbroken, thinking that it was not good.
The psychological implication of Stephanie being planted has not been completely eliminated, and coupled with the mutual attraction between guilt and guilt, her feelings for her seem to have deteriorated a bit.
And his behavior is tantamount to pouring oil on the fire...
I didn’t think too much when I bought the gift, but today is her birthday after all...
Thinking of this, Sean pushed the cake over: "Make a wish, what if today's time is chaotic and ends suddenly."
He made a joke that didn't make any sense.
Unexpectedly, Stephanie's face became solemn after hearing this. She hugged the gift Sean gave her tightly in her arms, clasped her hands together quickly and closed her eyes tightly.
After a while, her eyelashes trembled slightly and she opened her eyes again.
"I, I made a good wish..." Stephanie's voice was filled with nervousness and a trace of unconcealable expectation.
No, your face is as red as a bubble teapot... Looking at the blush on the girl's cheeks, Sean cried out inwardly.
It seems like something really bad is going to happen...
He sighed secretly, and finally said after Stephanie blew out the candles: "Happy birthday."
Then he left the scene with some embarrassment... Yes, he always felt that this was some kind of weird crime scene.
The point is, I'm already in deep trouble.
Haven't you seen that Snape will scan Sean with radar-like eyes whenever he sees him recently?
After leaving the Room of Requirement, Sean walked alone in the empty stone corridor.
Just when he was thinking about how to explain these things to Stephanie, he happened to see the direction of Hogsmeade out of the corner of his eye.
In the past, the continuously rainy Scotland did not support such a long distance view. However, the weather has been unexpectedly good recently, and Sean's eyesight has always been very good, so sometimes he can see the lights of the wizard town.
But tonight, the fire there was a little too dazzling.
Sean frowned and took out the magic telescope he got from Newt West.
He quickly walked to the terrace and looked at Hogsmeade through the binoculars.
Sean's pupils suddenly shrank.
Hogsmeade is burning!
Not only that, he also saw strange wizards in black robes casting spells wantonly, and the residents of Hogsmeade seemed to be vigorously resisting.
Someone attacked Hogsmeade? How?
At this moment, Sean's field of vision was suddenly occupied by a black particle that covered the sky. Now, even without a telescope, he could clearly see the flickering red core in the center of the particle.
Obscurus! That's Aurelius!
Sean could even feel the silent restlessness in his body, which was the instinctive attraction of dark forces and lives.
In the field of vision, the crazy black particles were like a living wind, attacking the group of unknown black-robed wizards from an unidentifiable trajectory.
The black-robed wizards immediately changed their targets and attacked Obscurus, but there was still one unlucky guy whose reaction speed was a little slower. He was completely wrapped in black particles and fell into the sky.
When he hit the ground heavily, his whole body was covered with black twisted marks, and there was no more sound.
"Hiss..." Sean moved the telescope and took a breath.
Aurelius is indeed an Obscurus who has lived for nearly a hundred years, and his strength is probably second only to Dumbledore and Grindelwald.
However, what happened to this group of attackers who suddenly appeared... Sean frowned.
Under the triple guard of Aurors, Guardsmen, and Dementors, as well as the magical defense of Hogwarts, these people managed to sneak in without anyone noticing.
And then launch a massive attack?
What is their purpose?
Moreover, with Aurelius's strength, it should only be a matter of time to deal with those guys... The professors must have reacted...
In addition, where is Dumbledore? He is not in the castle?
Just as he was thinking about it, Sean heard sudden vibrations and explosions under his feet.
Hogwarts Castle was also attacked?!
Sean immediately ran towards the place where the sound came from.
Halfway through the run, the stone wall in front of her quickly squirmed, and Stephanie pushed open the wooden door and walked out.
Seeing Sean, she quickly said: "On the first floor, the explosion location was near the auditorium. There was also an explosion in the corridor leading to the second floor. There was also an explosion in the courtyard. The enemy should have sneaked in from the ground. It seems that they were caught by Hogwarts."
The defense system discovered it.”
There was still some sweet cream stuck to the corner of Stephanie's mouth, and she was holding a cake that she had just eaten two bites in her hand. There was suppressed anger in her beautiful eyes, and even her sense of charm had weakened a lot.
"How many people entered the castle?" Sean asked quickly.
"The permissions given by the Room of Requirement are insufficient. I can only feel strange things near some buildings. It seems that there are not many attack points at the moment, but we cannot rule out the possibility of attackers arriving in groups."
As they spoke, the two of them ran quickly towards the first floor. The disobedient stairs of Hogwarts, which extended in all directions, were as docile as little pets in front of them. The nearest stairs would automatically move to their feet for running.
.
While running, a stern female voice spread throughout the castle.
"Hogwarts is under attack, all students must return to the common room!"
Sean didn't even glance at the direction of Ravenclaw Tower and continued running towards the first floor.
He had a feeling that these attackers had another purpose.
As soon as he ran to the widest corridor on the second floor, the dark curtain brushed against Sean's cheek, his pupils shrank, and Dave's warning came from his pocket.
"There are invisible sneak attackers!"
A huge upright figure swoops down from the ceiling with claws waving!
Sean immediately took a half step back and took Stephanie's hand beside him.
After forcibly braking, the two of them fell to the ground together, and the ground where they were supposed to run was filled with gravel!
A huge ape-like creature slammed to the ground! Then, without any hesitation, the creature roared and pounced on Sean.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The guy is about two meters tall, with silver hair all over his body. His ugly face has a raised mouth and nose that resembles an orangutan's, and saliva is flowing from between his sharp teeth.
flow down.
"The hidden monster...and the eyes are wrong..." Sean's eyes darkened. He raised his right hand and pointed his empty sleeve at the hidden monster.
A blue-green thorn sheath shot out like a bullet, and its body expanded crazily during flight!
The extremely strong hidden monster suddenly lost its human target, and its field of vision was completely occupied by a terrifying curling-winged demon!
The hidden monster did not hesitate. It roared and its sharp claws roared with the sound of wind, ready to smash the bony head of this weird curled-winged monster into powder.
But Dave's actions caught the Hidden Monster by surprise. It didn't even make a threatening roar, and its scarlet gaze that could almost draw a red line stared greedily at the Hidden Monster's brain.
"Boom!" The hidden monster's right claw hit Daveson's white bone head hard.
However, there was only a dull banging sound, and Dave's head didn't move at all.
"Kaha -" Without giving the hidden monster a chance to strike a second blow, Dave's terrifying big mouth suddenly opened. Its body, which was far larger than the normal kind, did not make it slow. The larger body also brought more
Powerful power and even more terrifying speed!
The hidden monster didn't even have time to retract its painful right claw, and even more severe pain struck crazily in the next moment.
Dave directly knocked away the hidden monster's sharp claws and bit it hard on the head!
The heart-wrenching "click" sound merged with the sound of skull cracking, and the hidden monster's hard head could only hold up three sides.
Red and white things splash!
"Dave, come back." Sean greeted.
Dave reluctantly glanced at the limp and fallen body of the invisible monster, and it quickly flew back to Sean to alert him.
"Are you okay?" Sean stretched out his hand towards Stephanie who fell to the ground.
The other party did not answer immediately, but looked at the ground blankly.
Sean followed his gaze and saw that it was a pile of cream cakes that had fallen to the ground.
"Well...I'll get you one next time..."
Before Sean could finish speaking, Stephanie got up on her own.
She took out a light blue wand with a thin head and a thick tail, and the tip was almost a needle point.
The girl's eyes were burning with Sean's unfamiliar anger, and her voice was like falling into an ice cave.
"Can't forgive..."
Are you so excited...?
Before Sean could say anything more, Dave's warning came again.
"There are enemies, around the corner ahead!"
Sean raised his wand and looked up. Two wizards in black robes were running out of the corner with their wands raised.
They saw Sean and Stephanie, but the two of them raised their wands without any hesitation towards the two students, who were obviously still children.
However, the fastest was not Sean, but Stephanie.
Her light blue pupils turned into black pupils like a starry night in an instant, and before the two black-robed wizards even uttered the spell, a look of blurred obsession appeared in their eyes.
Stephanie didn't hesitate at all. She flicked her wand, and a light silver spell shot out. Sean next to her even felt her hair stand on end.
The spell hit a black-robed wizard, and his obsessed look froze on his face, and his whole person was like a mirror that had been thrown to the ground.
He was rapidly shattering, irregular human body fragments shot out, and half of his "sharp" face even cut off his teammate's cheek.
Sean was stunned.
He had never seen this curse before. It seemed to be a fusion variant of the Petrification Curse and the Split Curse, and it was horrifyingly powerful.
Sure enough, this girl doesn't read so many books for nothing.
Complaints are complaints, Sean also raised his wand, ready to directly deal with the remaining guy.
And at this moment, a stern and furious voice exploded like thunder.
At the end of the corridor, Professor McGonagall's eyes widened angrily, and her bun had long been untied.
"How dare you... how dare you... take action against my students! How dare you!"
Amidst Professor McGonagall's angry roar, the wizard's robe of the remaining black-robed wizard twisted on its own, and his upper body clothes turned into a half-body python that wrapped around him tightly, and the collar turned into a snake head.
Biting his throat.
And Sean didn't even hear the man's scream, because at the same time as the clothes turned into snakes, the curtain hanging in the corridor suddenly expanded and hardened, like a falling boulder, directly suppressing the man.
Blood seeped out from under the curtain.
And all this happened in just a moment, and Sean's eyes flashed with brilliance.
The exquisite transformation technique! This is the goal that I have been working hard to achieve!
"You two, are you okay?!" Professor McGonagall hurried over and looked at the two of them carefully.
"Actually, they haven't taken action against us yet..." Sean said, and then quickly suppressed his light-hearted witticism.
There was nothing I could do about it, it looked scary... Professor McGonagall looked like an angry lioness protecting her cubs. She was breathing rapidly and her eyes were sharp.
"Why don't you go back to the common room."
Stephanie's wand dropped, and she lowered her head in frustration, still looking at the smashed cake.
Sean quickly replied: "I wanted to help...Professor, you know."
Professor McGonagall glanced at the Winged Demon hanging upside down on the ceiling, and at the enemy on the ground that was shattered like a mirror. She hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded.
"You are still as brave as ever...Follow me, Miss Ollivander, Mr. Wallup, don't leave!"
Several people ran towards the place where the explosion was still happening downstairs. On the way, Professor McGonagall told Sean what happened tonight.
Indeed, a group of dark wizards sneaked into Hogwarts by unknown means. Some of them caused trouble in Hogsmeade, while others sneaked into the castle secretly.
However, Hogwarts' defense measures are not foolproof. As soon as the group of people sneaked in, the professors received a warning from the castle.
All the professors attacked in unison, and the attackers were directly stopped on the first floor. Only a few escaped and escaped upstairs. Professor McGonagall came to pursue them.
"Professor, are there many hidden monsters among the attackers?" Sean asked.
Professor McGonagall nodded: "I suspect this is one of the reasons why they were able to infiltrate. They brought many weird hidden monsters here and tried to use them to make a surprise attack... But -"
"What?"
There was confusion in Professor McGonagall's eyes: "The number of people who attacked was actually not very large. The professors divided some of them to go to various lounges to protect the students, and the rest of them fought against the attackers - to be honest, it is almost the final stage now.
.”
With that said, they ran to the first floor. At the entrance of the auditorium, Professor Flitwick was holding up his wand, and a big man in black robes was controlling it. He kept hitting the stone pillars on the left and right. It seemed that the air intake was less and the air was out more.
Other professors were also fighting against several attackers who were stubbornly resisting.
With quick eyesight and quick hands, Sean threw out a silent acupuncture spell. A wizard who was struggling with Professor Sprout screamed miserably. The scream was quickly interrupted by Professor Sprout's petrification spell.
.
"Well done, Wallop," Professor McGonagall glanced around: "There are not many attackers... We are going to patrol the castle again and then go to support Hogsmeade, but there should be no need to worry there..."
Yes, there is Aurelius there... Sean's nod of agreement froze.
Silently...
No, these attackers were delaying the professor in the castle. Their original target was not anyone in the castle.
