24.chapter 24
The tips of the two wands were shining with gleaming light, extending into the extra rightmost branch, illuminating the bare inner wall. Al and George looked at each other, seeing shock and confusion in each other's eyes.
The fork on the left leads to the Hunger Games, and the fork in the middle leads to Hogsmeade. So what about the fork on the right? Is it a new world?
"run"
"Quick Imprisonment"
"Oh, that's useless. Run quickly, right, right, and avoid."
"What the hell is this thing? If I sing, will it stop?" George yelled as he ran wildly, and the monster roared again in response. The moment of life and death always stimulates people's unlimited potential. George grabbed Al with his long legs and ran wildly. Al's physical strength was almost exhausted, his heart was beating fast and he was panting like a broken bellows, but he still kept up. picked up George's pace.
While running, the two little wizards used their wands to fire magic spells at the biting Griever behind them from time to time. The numerous obstacles had no effect, but falling apart would make the Griever howl in pain, and they could only slightly block it for a moment. Who cares if underage wizards can do magic outside of school?
It turns out that curiosity did kill the cat.
The two little wizards were strongly curious about what was at the other end of the new branch, and mistakenly decided to take a look at the rightmost branch first. This time the secret passage seemed to be longer. They climbed out of a concrete passage. This time, the exit at the end of the secret passage is sealed. It is covered with a thin layer of cement. You don't need to use magic. You can break this thin layer with just a few hard hits.
As soon as the two people emerged from the secret passage, they were stunned by the scene in front of them. It's night here, and everything is hard to see clearly in the dim light. Looking ahead, you can see gray walls dozens of meters high. The material looks like cement, and there are a few metal walls here and there, with sharp edges. of light. The walls were intricately arranged, and Al could hear a "buzzing" sound echoing around it. It looked like
A maze.
An insect the size of a fist suddenly flew in front of Al, startling him. This insect doesn't look like a creature that exists in nature. Its eyes are flashing with a faint red light, and there seems to be a line of English letters on its back.
Before Al could see too much clearly, the insect flew away with great speed.
Al and George walked through a wall. There were as many as eight choices for the path in front of them. They could not choose a path rashly, as they would probably lose their way.
Al seemed to have noticed something, and suddenly pulled George and started to turn around and run towards the exit: "It's dangerous, move quickly."
George didn't have time to ask anything, and the two of them ran towards the secret passage in three steps and two steps at a time. However, just as they were about to approach the secret passage, there was a loud "clang" sound, and something almost touched Al's forehead and stabbed him. The top of the car penetrated deeply into the solid ground, and the splashing gravel hurt Al's calf. If Al hadn't reacted quickly and stopped suddenly, he would have died.
This was an iron-green leg as thick as Al's arm, belonging to the artificial arthropod monster in front of him.
Not
Needing to see the monster in its entirety, Al knew it must be a will-o'-the-wisp.
They entered the world of the moving maze
There was no time to think more, before the Griever could get his legs out of the ground, Al grabbed George and turned around and ran away. While running, George broke down and asked: "What is this thing and why is it scarier than that three-headed dog?"
"I'm glad you finally know how to pronounce the word horror. This is a will-o'-the-wisp. It's 10,000 times more terrifying than a three-headed dog. If it catches you, you will be torn into pieces immediately."
At first, Al was dragging George and running, but soon it was George dragging Al and running wildly; it was impossible to hide his whereabouts and get rid of the Griever, it was too fast; Al suspected that even if the Griever gave up chasing them now, they would still be able to escape. You won't be able to find your way back.
Are you going to capsize in the gutter and die here?
George pulled Al and turned another corner to the right. Even though Al was dizzy, he remembered that all the turns George made along the way were to the right. The Wisp was so big that it couldn't help but bumped into the wall. This bought the two young wizards precious time and briefly left the Wisp behind. Al's legs seemed to be no longer his. He walked forward mechanically; his mind was not idle, trying desperately to recall everything he had learned, trying to find an effective spell.
They were still too young. If they were in seventh grade or even fifth grade at this moment, a crushing spell could blow one of the Griever's legs apart.
But they only have third and first grade students.
Al needs a spell that can maximize his magic power.
After turning a corner again, the rumbling sound of the Griever stepping on the floor was once again approaching the two little wizards. Al could almost smell the rancid smell of the monster. It was too late to hesitate. Al suddenly stopped, his hands acting out of inertia. It also slipped from George's hand; George was startled and subconsciously clenched it in vain but failed to catch anything.
The eleven-year-old wizard looked like a reptile in front of the Griever, but Al raised his wand to the giant beast without fear. In George's eyes, this was undoubtedly an act of committing suicide.
“corrosconfringo”
A dazzling green light exploded from the tip of Al's wand and shot straight into the mouthparts of the Griever. The next moment, the explosion of fire exploded. At the same time, Al was blown away behind George by the air wave, and the entire head of the Griever was blown into pieces. It is a black-gray semi-solidified object, and the rest of its body is making a tooth-aching "sizzling" sound. The originally smooth shell emits wisps of smoke. It seems to be corroded by something and becomes riddled with holes. , gradually shrank.
The unknown spell of the first-year wizard caused so much damage, it was undoubtedly a dark magic.
The horrific scene of the Griever being blown to pieces failed to attract George's attention. He had just gotten up from the ground, and there was a buzzing sound in his head. Even though he was still a little unsteady, George still staggered to Al's side.
"Al Al"
Al gave him no response. His face was pale, and even his hair seemed to have lost its luster; his exposed cheeks and neck were covered with small wounds, and his chest did not rise and seemed to have stopped breathing.
