Dragon Roar Master at Hogwarts

Chapter 167: Attack in the castle after the death anniversary party



In the underground classroom, the gathering of hundreds of milky white translucent ghosts looked spectacular. Dudley, who was wearing a winter coat, was enjoying the overhead hockey performance of the headless hunters while secretly taking the stuffing that had been prepared in his arms. Put the cake in your mouth.

"Give me a piece of the pie - you knew this would happen, Dudley." Fleur walked up to Dudley and looked at him with some annoyance, "At least you should have reminded me to sneak in some food. .”

"I think this is also part of the surprise. If I had known that the ghost's banquet was all about carrion, it would be boring." Dudley broke open half of the pie he had taken a bite of, and Fleur immediately bit Dudley without hesitation. Half of it was taken away.

On the other side of the room, Harry seemed to be nervously trying to strike up a conversation with Cho Chang, while Ron and Hermione were comforting Myrtle, who had just been made cry by Peeves.

"Didn't that girl named Parkinson come with you?" Fleur asked, puffing up her cheeks while eating pie, "I remember she was still very clingy to you when school first started."

"She seems to be feeling unwell recently, so I don't plan to bring her to such a cold occasion." Speaking of Pansy, Dudley sighed softly, forming a white mist in the cold air.

Nearly headless Nick was speaking loudly on the stage, seemingly intending to divert the attention of the ghosts present from the Headless Hunters back to himself.

"Okay, it's almost time for us to go back." Dudley stood up and said in a low voice: "You go to Qiu and Harry's place and talk to them. I'll go to Ron and Hermione's place. If you go back now, Maybe we can make pudding for the Halloween party.”

Dudley had no interest in this death anniversary party, but in the original work, the first attack of the basilisk occurred during this plot, so Dudley followed him just in case.

It seemed that no one was reluctant to leave the death anniversary party. Taking advantage of the ghosts' noise, everyone secretly left the underground classroom through the back door.

Dudley approached Harry, put his hand on his shoulder, and asked softly: "Harry, how are you? Do you feel anything special?"

"It feels like her eyes are very special, as if she can talk... But she seems to be particularly interested in Cedric Diggory of the Hufflepuff Quidditch team..." Ha Lee murmured somewhat absentmindedly.

"I'm not asking Qiu Zhang," Dudley asked in a low voice, somewhat dumbfounded, "I want to know if you heard any strange noises?"

"What's the sound?" Harry looked at Dudley with confusion, "I didn't hear anything."

Hearing Harry's answer, Dudley was a little relieved. After all, when the basilisk attacked people in the original work, Harry, as a Parselmouth, should have heard some words.

"Wait, I think I heard it, Dudley, is this the strange sound you were talking about?" Ron suddenly stopped and stood there in horror.

Seeing Ron's actions, everyone stopped and listened carefully to any slight sound in the silent corridor.

Soon, Dudley also heard the strange sound that Ron said. It sounded like the subtle sounds of arthropods moving, and seemed to be mixed with the soft clicking sounds of bones colliding.

"Look here - is the sound coming from them?" Hermione first discovered the source of the sound. On the stairs, she saw countless giant spiders the size of washbasins lining up and climbing up the stairs. .

"This, this is not an ordinary spider." Ron's face looked a little distorted due to extreme panic, "Look carefully, that is the larvae of the Acromantula... Why does it appear in the castle?"

Acromantula?Dudley's heart sank. The range of activities of this dangerous creature has always been limited to the Forbidden Forest. It was definitely not normal to suddenly appear in Hogwarts Castle and walk upstairs.

"Let's go quickly and inform the professors!" Ron said almost crying, "It's too scary. If one of them ran into the Gryffindor common room, I wouldn't be able to sleep tonight."

"You guys go to the restaurant right away and notify the professors who are having the Halloween banquet to come and deal with them." Dudley calmed down and commanded in a deep voice, "I'll go up first to see the situation."

"It's too dangerous. I'll go with you." Fleur stepped forward and grabbed Dudley's arm and said without hesitation: "Otherwise, you will come back to the restaurant with us."

Seeing Fleur's determined look, Dudley could only nod his head: "But if I ask you to run away later, you must not hesitate. Do you understand?"

After parting ways with Harry and the others, Dudley and Fleur quickly ran upstairs along the line of Acromantulas. Miraculously, the Acromantulas seemed not interested in them and had no intention of attacking them at all.

"Meow!"

Suddenly, when Dudley and Fleur reached the fifth floor, they heard a shrill meow. Dudley's heart sank and he ran upstairs faster.

After climbing the stairs, in the dim light of the corridor on the sixth floor, Dudley first saw the white spider webs all over the corridor, and the figure bundled up in white spider silk, lying in the middle of the corridor.

"Meow! Meow! Meow!" A cat with dark gray fur frantically scratched the spider silk on the man lying on the ground, as if trying to save him from the spider silk.

"It's Mrs. Norris!" Fleur exclaimed, "In this case, what's on the ground is——"

"Be careful!" Dudley suddenly felt an icy chill on his head and immediately pushed Fleur away.

"Click!" A huge black shadow fell from the sky and pressed Dudley to the ground. It was a huge furry body with eight thick claws. Dudley, who was pressed to the ground, could smell the taste on its jaws. Fishy smell.

"FusRoDah"

The huge creature pressing on Dudley was blown away in an instant, and Dudley could see its appearance clearly - it was an extremely huge spider, nearly two meters long, with its whole body covered in gray-black fluff, and eight jet-black spiders. Evil eyes.

"Collapse!" Dudley heard Fleur's voice, but her spell was not directed at the Acromantula that was blown away just now, which meant that she was attacking another enemy.

Dudley stood up again and saw that in addition to the Acromantula that he had just blown away with his dragon roar, another equally huge Acromantula landed next to the unconscious Filch. .

Two huge Acromantulas blocked the escape route of Dudley and Fleur. At the same time, countless small spiders also surrounded them, and the corridor was filled with dense black evil eyes.

"Aragog and Hagrid made an agreement that his descendants can only stay in the Forbidden Forest and cannot attack humans!" Dudley remembered that the Acromantula has extremely high intelligence, so he tried to communicate with them, "Leave here immediately , otherwise your race will face catastrophe!"

"Aragog... quack... old... quack... quack... new master... orders... .....”

With the eerie clicking sound of the jaws touching each other, the Acromantula uttered a few words indistinctly.

But it was enough for Dudley, who looked at the hostile Acromantula with a solemn expression.

Sure enough, these Acromantulas were manipulated into attacking humans.
