Chapter 31: The Scapegoat Dragon

At this moment, the headmaster's office at Hogwarts.

Albus Dumbledore, wearing a monocle, was reading the magic scroll in his hand. A quill on his desk was dancing on its own as if alive, writing rows of words on the paper.

.On the bird stand in the other corner of the room, a phoenix with gorgeous golden-red feathers was taking a nap with squinted eyes.

The portraits of past principals on the wall chatted with each other. From time to time, someone wanted to say a few words to the current principal, and Dumbledore responded patiently.

This is almost the daily life of the top leader at Hogwarts.

"Come in." Dumbledore suddenly raised his head and said.

Coming up from the spiral staircase was a man with long greasy black hair and a permanently gloomy expression. Severus Snape walked up to Dumbledore directly, "You let Quirrell go to the Forbidden Forest?"

"Hagrid told me that the unicorn is being hunted by a dark wizard. Since it is related to dark magic, shouldn't the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor be sent?" Dumbledore closed the scroll in his hand, and the quill also

He inserted it back into the ink bottle by himself.

This answer obviously did not satisfy Snape, "You can't possibly not know someone who needs to drink unicorn blood to stay alive."

Dumbledore smiled, "But that would make it impossible for Quirrell to be an investigator and commit a crime at the same time, wouldn't it?"

"Everything that needs to be clarified has been clarified. Are you still going to pretend that you don't know that he is possessed by that person?" Snape became increasingly dissatisfied. "If I hadn't been watching, he would have turned on Potter a long time ago.

Let’s start.”

"You and I actually know one thing, that is, since Voldemort in his heyday couldn't break Lily's blood protection and hurt Harry, then naturally he can't do it either with only a little bit of his soul left."

As the most powerful wizard in Britain and the controller of Hogwarts, how could Dumbledore fail to see something unusual about Quirrell.

Dumbledore motioned Snape to sit down, then waved, and a teapot flew over automatically, pouring two cups of hot tea. He pushed one of them to Snape, and then added a lot of honey to his own cup.

.

"Even if Tom Riddle gave himself a name like Voldemort, he couldn't hide the cowardice in his heart. He was afraid of failure and death. He was good at using the Death Curse, but he was afraid of the power of the Death Curse, so he split on his own.

Souls, and then made into Horcruxes." Dumbledore sipped hot tea, "If possible, I would like to let Quirrell stay in Hogwarts until we find all the Horcruxes, so that we can once and for all

Trouble solved."

"But that's impossible. Quirrell's body cannot withstand the possession of the Dark Lord," Snape said coldly: "He has no reason to stay in school during the holidays, so he will have to stay at school by the end of this semester at the latest."

Take action. In addition, Potter seems to have figured out the existence of the Sorcerer's Stone, and he naively thought that I was plotting against it."

"That's it." Dumbledore thought for a while, and then suddenly showed an expression like an old naughty child, "There is no need to suppress Harry's enthusiasm. This valuable sense of responsibility and courage must be protected. How about this, we work with other professors to set up

A level, a special final exam for Harry, it shouldn’t be too difficult, and it doesn’t need to use any advanced spells, but it must be interesting enough.”

Snape let out a long sigh. He was used to the headmaster's nonsensical behavior from time to time.

"It's not just for Harry, any student who is worried about the safety of the Sorcerer's Stone and is brave enough can take this special exam and get a reward." Dumbledore said cheerfully.

Snape no longer wanted to talk about the annoying savior boy, "What about Elvin Frost? You should know that he has not attended any classes for nearly a month." "It is understandable, this child should be with

Hagrid is also fascinated by dragons, and he even secretly read the dragon book I wrote."

"You wantonly skipped classes, contradicted professors, and secretly read banned books. Aren't you prepared to take care of such lawlessness?" Snape frowned.

He was very vindictive, because he was the only professor that Erwin contradicted.

"I have always believed that school rules are used to protect students, not to restrict the growth of gifted children." Dumbledore said slowly: "I gave Harry the Invisibility Cloak, and I had already prepared a meeting between him and his friends.

Use him to be mentally prepared to do some irregular things. Erwin has indeed read a lot of banned books, but if he tried to touch black magic books, I would have stepped in to stop him, but so far he has not."

Erwin thought he was unaware of the ghost, but he didn't think that this was entirely the tolerance of his elders. Fortunately, in Dumbledore's opinion, he was still a good boy.

Of course, Dumbledore is not omniscient. He knew that Erwin was peeking at forbidden books, but he thought he was borrowing Harry's invisibility cloak to sneak into the library. Likewise, he was concerned about this paranoid student who was in the forbidden forest.

I don't know what to do.



Erwin's mind was elsewhere. Although he felt something was strange about Quirrell, he didn't pay much attention to it.

After all, technically speaking, he and the Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher had never met each other.

For the rest of the day and the day after, Hagrid and Quirrell searched the Forbidden Forest for the dark wizard who had killed the unicorn. As expected, they found nothing.

Erwin is making final preparations.

He fell into a rather weird excitement, but he was also quite calm and carefully planned every step he would take. At least within the scope of his cognition, his plan was foolproof.

It was approaching evening and there was no one in the camp. Erwin put away the Hidden Inscription Stick, pulled his suitcase, and motioned for Norberta to follow him.

The baby dragon was now the size of a calf, and it was impossible for Erwin to move the cage containing it.

Fortunately, Norberta is very well-behaved now, and she doesn't even need aspic to be obedient.

Erwin took it southward, stopped when approaching the giant spider's territory, and found an open space.

It's a very suitable place, there are no spiders, and the centaurs won't come.

Erwin began to arrange the inscription rods. After all, what he was going to do was something quite extraordinary, and it should not be known to anyone else, so it was completely impossible in the original camp.

Now, it's time to get started.

Erwin motioned for Norberta to sit still, but drank the first tube of potion, the activating sex change potion.

As the cold liquid went down, he felt that his body was gradually becoming lighter, even like a gas.

Of course, this is just a feeling.

Then there is the second large jar, which is full of the Fountain of Power, which is four-fifths of Erwin's inventory.

He opened the lid, and Norberta immediately raised her head when she smelled the smell. Erwin drank it all in one gulp without any hesitation.

He felt as if a miniature sun suddenly appeared in his stomach, and the lava-like heat spread throughout his body in a matter of seconds. He couldn't help but kneel on one knee and squat down.

With such a huge amount of magic power, if he didn't use it immediately, his body would collapse in an instant.

The most critical step is to start to transform, and the ultimate target of the transformation is naturally the Norwegian Spinosaurus.

Erwin began to visualize a three-dimensional model of a Norwegian Spinosaurus in his mind, down to every scale. He had practiced this countless times before, and then controlled his magical body to begin to transform.

There was no pain because the pain nerve had begun to deform at this time.

Erwin's vision suddenly changed, and he could actually look down at himself who was transforming. This was the state of soul separation, but it only lasted for a moment, and the next moment his soul returned to the body again.

New brains, internal organs, and bones are forming, the forearms are lengthening, claws and wing membranes are growing, the hind legs are becoming more curved and more powerful, and iconic spikes are beginning to grow on the head and back.

The deformation stopped.

Erwin felt that it should be a success. He still maintains a clear will and his whole body has completed the transformation. He is now a pure Spinosaurus.

He is much smaller than Norbert, only about the size of a medium-sized dog, and his color is darker.

The magic power provided by those fountains of power that he drank before has been completely solidified in the body of this young dragon.

This means that his idea is correct. After transforming into a dragon, he no longer has the shackles of magic.

Just when he was quite excited, he suddenly heard Norberta's threatening growl.

Erwin also felt something. He immediately turned around and saw that the vision of dragons was quite different from that of humans. It took him several seconds to get used to it.

Then I saw a dark figure that appeared at some unknown time. It was already night, and the moonlight fell on the man, like a ghost.

It's that monster wizard.

Erwin thought it was ridiculous. How did the other party find this place in such a vast forbidden forest? How could he see through the disguise of the invisible inscription rod without using a detection spell?

Could it be that it was just a chance that was so small that it was almost impossible that the other party happened to walk into the coverage area of ​​the inscription rod?

This is not science! This is not magic!

Erwin didn't have time to think too much.

The wizard was not in a hurry to recite the spell, but started to applaud, "Interesting." He spoke in front of Erwin for the first time, his voice was hoarse but gave him a vague sense of familiarity, "A very ambitious brat, but is it just...

Didn't anyone tell you that the consequence of such a deformation is that you can only remain an animal for the rest of your life?"

Erwin's heart skipped a beat, and he reminded himself not to be affected by the other person's words.

"But it just so happens that killing a student near Hogwarts is really a stupid decision, but killing a dragon won't cause any trouble..."

He raised his wand.

Erwin's muscles were already tense, and he pounced on it without much thought. Although he had just transformed, he didn't feel unfamiliar at all with this dragon-shaped body. His speed was as fast as lightning, and he was completely different from his body.

Human beings can compare.

Not only is he fast, he also has greater strength, sharp claws and strong scales.

However, a violent gas shock wave erupted in front of the monster wizard's wand. Erwin turned over due to the recoil and was unable to get closer.

Shock spell! They actually used the spell I invented to deal with me! Erwin's heart was roaring.

"Norberta!" he shouted, then found himself speechless and could only quack.

But the young dragon actually understood what he meant, and when he opened his mouth, a fierce flame burst out.

This slightly blocked the opponent's line of sight, and Erwin ran away without hesitation. He did not forget to continue directing Norbert.

"You ran in the opposite direction!"

The young dragon immediately followed the instructions and ran faster than Erwin. The monster wizard did not hesitate and chased in Erwin's direction.

Facts have proved that when he was really threatened by death, Erwin's mentality of "at worst, I will go to another world with my memories after death" disappeared without a trace. After all, it was a baseless guess and could not be put into practice, so

Erwin ran vigorously.

The wing membranes on the forelimbs were quite cumbersome when running. Erwin tried to fly and almost hit a boulder.

He can only be a walking dragon!

Erwin was heartbroken.

One dragon and one person shuttled through the dark forbidden forest, and the cold moonlight filtered through the leaves and fell on the ground.

The monster wizard behind him was chasing after him. He was able to keep up with Erwin's speed and released several life-killing spells in succession. However, he did not seem to be very proficient in this spell, and his hit rate was very poor in mobile combat.

Irvine had no impact.

A curse that is empty is equivalent to farting.

So the wizard changed the spell angrily, and the red light representing the confinement spell finally hit Erwin, but he just staggered for a moment, and then continued running as if nothing happened.

With so much magic power inside his body, Erwin's current magic resistance is simply astonishing.

He didn't want to look back at all, because now he couldn't use the dragon's body to release magic at all, and fighting the opponent purely in physical combat would definitely be a dead end. As long as he stopped, he would definitely be hit by a life-killing curse.

Even if a dragon is hit by the Death Curse, it will die immediately. All living beings are equal before Avada.

So there is no choice but to escape.

He knew the direction and ran as fast as he could. As long as he met either Hagrid or Professor Quirrell, he would be safe.

The facial features of the dragon form were also sharper. Erwin soon noticed the light of a torch from the side. He immediately turned around, heard the voice of someone speaking, and then saw the hill-like figure.

Erwin's eyes filled with tears. For the first time, he felt so secure in Hagrid's body.

He rushed over without hesitation.

Facing the sudden appearance of the young dragon, Hagrid was really surprised, "Norbeta? Why did you run out?"

It was dark, and there couldn't be any other Norwegian Spinosaurus in the Forbidden Forest, so Hagrid naturally admitted his mistake.

Erwin hid behind him as fast as he could, shouting a warning at the same time.

The gamekeeper subconsciously raised his crossbow.

The monster wizard appeared, but instead of releasing magic, he stood in front of Hagrid and took off his hood.

"It's Professor Quirrell." Hagrid relaxed.

Erwin was stunned.

The Magic Defense teacher at Hogwarts turned out to be a mole! No wonder the invisible inscription rod didn't work, because Quirrell had been to the secret camp before! He knew about the existence of the inscription rod, and might even secretly use it on Erwin

The locking spell!

"Are you here to chase Norbert? I'm sorry, this little guy has caused you trouble." Hagrid said cheerfully, knowing nothing about the true identity of the person in front of him.

Quirrell responded vaguely, his eyes still staring at Erwin.

"Is this the Norwegian Spinyback?" someone behind Hagrid asked.

The gamekeeper was not alone, he was followed by five strange wizards.

They also brought a big cage.

Elving felt bad, he came to pick up Norberta!

"Yes, it just happened to come over, so I'll trouble you." Hagrid put his face close to Erwin, "Be good, Norberta, you will have a new home soon."

Erwin struggled desperately, Hey! Hagrid! Look clearly! There is a difference between me and Norberta!

Then Hagrid took out a dirty bandana and blew his nose in farewell.

The wizards tried to put Erwin into the cage, but were naturally resisted with all their strength. Erwin bared his teeth and claws, used his hands, feet, mouth and tail to push them back, and tried his best to escape.

However, Hagrid grabbed his neck, and the half-giant's hands were like iron vices.

No, Hagrid!

"It seems that it is a little uncooperative." The leader of the five wizards said.

Several people communicated with each other and said, "There is nothing we can do."

Five wands were pointed at Erwin's head, his eyes showing despair.

"Faint!" the wizards shouted in unison.

With Erwin's current magic resistance, it was impossible for him to be hit in the head by five stun spells at such a close distance. Those wizards were all professionals and knew how to subdue a dragon.

He tilted his head and lost consciousness.

The wizards put the baby dragon into the cage, "Then we're leaving," they said.

Hagrid waved goodbye to them and blew his nose again. From beginning to end, he found nothing unusual.

Quirrell watched the wizards leave with a glimmer of light in his eyes. Anyway, this could be regarded as getting rid of that hateful boy.
