Tom took advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention and climbed out of the side window of the Three Broomsticks bar. This was thanks to Menis. His wine made up for the shortcomings in his soul, allowing him to face the evil spirits this time.
The monster didn't become that bad - if he fainted after just one encounter, Tom's subsequent actions would be nonsense.
After landing on the ground, he realized something unusual outside: the entire Hogsmeade village seemed to be shrouded in mist. The dementors who came to Hogsmeade were not just the ones who broke into the Three Broomsticks Tavern.
, Tom conservatively estimated that the number of dementors involved in this operation should be close to one hundred.
It’s not a small sum!
Seeing so many Dementors floating around the streets of Hogsmeade, Tom wondered if there were really any Dementors guarding Hogwarts now? Fudge was going too far by giving such an order.
A bit of a traitor. If Sirius wanted to sneak into Hogwarts secretly, now would be the best time.
In fact, Tom misunderstood Minister Fudge. His calculation was very shrewd. In theory, this was a "wonderful move". The direct cause of today's search was Hogsmeade Day, and Fudge felt that Sirius was very likely.
Today, he showed up at Hogsmeade to guard the village to wait for Potter - after all, Sirius would not know that Harry had not obtained permission to go to Hogsmeade. So in order to catch Sirius, it was necessary to organize a search.
The deeper reasons are very dark and cannot be brought to the table at all. As the Minister of Magic, Fudge certainly knows that the dementors guarding outside Hogwarts have resentment, and this resentment is about to turn into resentment.
So he decided to put half of the Dementors in Hogsmeade to conduct a search. As for whether the Dementors over-enforced the law during the search and took the opportunity to suck some "happy", Fudge planned to turn a blind eye.
But the problem lies in execution.
He planned to let half of the dementors out, but when he actually carried out the plan, all the dementors left their posts and entered Hogsmeade to feast. The people sent by the Ministry of Magic were unable to stop them.
As a result, Hogwarts became an undefended area, and Hogsmeade was more like a ghost.
Tom exhaled two breaths of cold air. The cold air passed through his lungs and became warmer when it came out. It brought up a large white mist and quickly lost the heat. From Tom's perspective, he
It felt like what I had just breathed in was not air, but two lumps of ice.
The arrival of the dementors caused the temperature of the entire Hogsmeade to drop.
Those Dementors had already run away, but the movement here attracted more Dementors. Feeling the increasingly cold environment, Tom quickly transformed and turned himself into a Dementor.
After becoming a dementor, everything looks and feels different.
Magic power surged in his body, and his body twisted like a reflection on the water. The whole person seemed to turn into a cloud of smoke. The next moment, the smoke gradually dissipated, and a shadow was revealed, a tattered black robe, as pale as a corpse.
body...
A dementor appeared on the spot.
It's just that this dementor is a little different from other dementors in details: there is a ring on his rotten and scabbed finger, and if you pull down his hood, you will see a pale human face——
Ordinary dementors only have one mouth, and the other facial features are sealed with scabs.
After Tom switched forms, the first thing he felt was that the surroundings were no longer cold, but a very comfortable feeling. In fact, this statement is a bit inaccurate, because if the temperature of the cold finger is low, the surroundings are still very cold. But Soul-Taking
Monsters cannot be generalized from ordinary humans. For them, a cold, humid, and gloomy environment is the most comfortable environment, so the surrounding air temperature is very low, but Tom is still very comfortable.
Therefore, the cold wind that can make people shiver, blowing on him, is as comfortable as the breeze coming from under the shade of the mountains and trees in midsummer.
Dementors have no vision, and Tom can feel an extra layer of calluses on his eyes. It's a bit like the feeling he suffered from conjunctivitis when he was a child. That time he woke up in the morning and found that his eyes were covered with a large amount of ocular secretion.
The object was sealed. This cocoon made him almost as if he had lost his eyesight, but dementors did not need eyesight. They could sense everything around them through various emotions without eyes.
He could feel that there were a large number of lively people in the house next to him, and they were generating steaming emotions - joy, encouragement, excitement, admiration... all positive emotions. He also noticed that the entire Hogg
Maud's mood was changing. There were fewer and fewer positive emotions floating in the streets and alleys, but negative emotions were slowly increasing - these were all problems caused by the dementors' feeding.
The patrons in the Three Broomsticks bar were really excited because they had just successfully fought off the dementors. Emotions are like springs. The tighter they were suppressed just now, the stronger they rebound now.
Tom, who was separated by a wall, was almost crying: this emotion smells so good!
For dementors, positive emotions are their food. The entire Hogsmeade is like a cafeteria, and popular shops such as the Three Broomsticks Bar and Zuko's Joke Shop are like the seafood counter of the cafeteria.
striking.
Tom tried hard to suppress the idea of rushing into the bar and feasting. But he could restrain it, but the other dementors couldn't help it. The dementors that had entered before left, just like the customers queuing up in front of the seafood counter.
Just like that, a new dementor floated towards us immediately.
Tom thought for a while and floated towards them. The way the Dementors moved was also very unique. They had no legs and could only float around in the air like a piece of poplar catkins. Wherever they passed, there was a sense of withering. Each one took a
Ghost monsters are like machines for releasing negative emotions, spreading negative energy wherever they go. When they gather together, they can even change the celestial phenomena.
Soon, the new Dementors met Tom on a narrow road. They fell from the sky and stopped in front of Tom, looking at him and looking at this strange-looking fellow.
Tom's body tensed up. He could feel that he was surrounded by dementors, and they were looking at him. If they were discovered, a fierce battle would be inevitable. But he was confident that he could definitely do it.
Deal with these dementors. Although he doesn't know the Patronus Charm, he can transform into a unicorn form and fight the dementors. Even if he loses, he can go to Hermione for support and easily handle this.
A few dementors.
After "looking" at Tom for a few seconds, the Dementor directly in front of Tom spoke. Its voice was very hoarse, as if their vocal organs were rotten and rusty.
Just listen to it say slowly: "You... are so short..."
