Chapter 177 The Calamity of the Gryffindor Tower



Chapter 177 The Calamity of the Gryffindor Tower
Not long after, the house elf appeared in the room, holding a plate in his hand with a few small, snow-white buns inside.

They were fragrant, constantly seducing the saliva in David's mouth.

After thanking him, David carefully took the plate and put it on the table.

The house-elf stood close to David, looking straight at him, waiting for his comment.

But just as David picked up one, Hermione suddenly said, "Did you hear any strange noises?"

Harry and the others paused from the discussion on Xiaolongbao.

"What noise?" David asked.

"Hush!" Hermione waved her hand, closed her eyes and listened, "Listen up, it's coming again."

David tried to divert his attention from the Xiaolongbao, his ears pricked up.

A deep roar seemed to come from a very far away place, and it was getting closer and closer.

After listening carefully for a while, the roar became more and more clear.

David's eyes widened instantly.

When Professor Dumbledore left, he said that the mutation in the forest might have prevented him from leaving.

But judging from what happened earlier, those animals obviously couldn't stop him.

But all this is not over yet.
No, something that can stop him is coming.

David got up and said in a deep voice, "This is the voice of a fire dragon."

"what?!"

David didn't bother to explain to them. According to the volume of the sound, the fire dragon was flying towards them quickly. It might not be long before they could appreciate its graceful figure.

Stepping up to inform the people in the dormitory, David caught a glimpse of the house elf who was still standing aside, and immediately said, "Can you call your companions and bring everyone in the dormitory to the hall?"

"Of course, sir, we will be glad to oblige."

The house elf showed a surprised expression, bowed immediately, and disappeared in place.

"Really a fire dragon?" Ron also stood up, pinching his thigh with one hand.

"Well, I stayed in the dragon farm for a while, and although there are some differences in the calls of the fire dragons, they are roughly the same."

While talking, David threw the steamed buns into his mouth. Although the fire dragon is coming, we can't delay cooking.

"Let's go out too, it should be safer to go to the auditorium." David said vaguely.

"it is good!"

No sooner had Harry finished speaking than the growling started again, and even closer, as if roaring in their ears.

"Come on!"

David hurriedly urged, he somewhat underestimated the flying speed of the fire dragon.

When they ran to the door opening, the students resting upstairs also noticed something was wrong, and several students on the lower floors ran down shouting loudly.

Suddenly, the surrounding walls trembled violently, and the fire dragon kissed intimately with the tower with its body.

There was another bang, and the ground shook, followed by the sound of falling gravel.

The few students who ran downstairs were walking on the shaking ground, the tension in their hearts coupled with their weak hands and feet made them accidentally crawl on the ground.

David was just about to go back to help them when he saw a few house elves appearing beside them.

They saluted David and left with the students with a pop.

Okay
David followed Harry and the others out of the doorway, secretly thankful that a house elf happened to be beside him just now, otherwise how many students would have been injured by the impact of the fire dragon.

After running a few steps in the corridor, an idea came to David's mind. He was going to look outside, so he said to Hermione and the others, "Go to the auditorium first, and I'll come back later."

"Are you going to see that fire dragon?" Hermione guessed David's thoughts at once.

"I'll take a look from a distance to see if I can provide some useful information to the professors," David said quickly.

"Will it be dangerous?" Hermione stared into David's eyes.

"Absolutely not!"

Hermione looked away from David's face, turned around and dragged Harry and the others away, leaving a sentence for David: "I'll wait for you in the auditorium, if you don't come, I won't leave."

David took a deep breath, and when he saw Hermione walking away, he instantly moved to the open space outside the tower.

Looking up, the sun has not completely set, and the remaining afterglow shines on the fire dragon hovering high in the sky.

It is about eight or nine meters long, and its sturdy body is covered with pearl-like scales, glowing with colorful colors, shining and extremely beautiful.

Hector?
Seeing the fire dragon flying in the air, David was stunned for a moment, and the memories in his mind turned like pages of a book.

Unicorn. Alisa. Aussie egg whites in the canyon.
Comparing the appearance of the egg white in memory with the one in the sky, it should be right.

Is it for Alisa?

Or is it infected too?

David frowned, raised his head and shouted loudly, "Hector!"

Hector paused, and his huge body rubbed against the Gryffindor tower.

The top of the tower collapsed completely, and the rubble fell like raindrops.

After the fire dragon stabilized its body, its huge head slowly lowered, it wanted to see who was calling its name just now.

At this time, David saw Hector's beautiful eyes clearly through the remaining sunlight, they were still pure white, and they were not infected.

That's where Alyssa came.

Where did it get the news from?

David wanted to greet Hector again, but several lights flew out from the windows of the castle.

The professors got their hands on the dragon.

They didn't know what they were doing just now, and they didn't show up until now.

Hector growled, threw away David, and stared straight in the direction of the castle.

The surroundings suddenly became brighter, and a hot flame spewed out from Hector's mouth, whistling and flying towards the castle.

But as soon as it flew around the castle, the flames were caught in the air and quickly extinguished.

At the same time, several spells hit Hector's body, scratching its skin, and a few scales dangled and fell to the ground.

Hector roared angrily, flapped his wings vigorously, and rushed to the castle without hesitation, trying to take advantage of his huge body.

But it's doomed to be futile.

If it came during the day, it would pose a considerable threat to the professors in conjunction with other animals attacking the castle.

But now there is only one left. Although it is not easy for the professors to unite to suppress it, it is not impossible.
Hector brushed past the castle, but after a while he couldn't bear the attacks of the professors, and flapped his wings and flew into the air.

Seriously speaking, the fire dragon is actually not as difficult to deal with as the poison leopard, because the poison leopard is very flexible, it can easily avoid the spells of the wizards, and thus launch a counterattack.

Although the fire dragon has rough skin and thick flesh, if you touch it, the wizard will probably die, but it is too heavy, as long as it cooperates well, the wizards can play it around.

Seeing that the professors were attacking fiercely, David quickly moved to the edge of the forest, pointed with his wand, and the Norwegian Ridgeback lay on the ground.

Climbing up on its back, David commanded it to fly high into the sky, and yelled provocatively at Hector.

Hector glanced at the little bug in the castle, flicked his tail, and rushed towards David.

For a fire dragon, another fire dragon's provocation is absolutely unacceptable!
Seeing it coming, David slapped the Norwegian Ridgeback on the head, and one person and one dragon flew into the depths of the forest.

Along the way, Hector spewed flames and wanted to attack David, but he blocked them all.

After staying away from Hogwarts, David turned around and shouted loudly with the Amplifying Charm: "Hector, stop fighting, we are friends."

The flame that had welled up to Hector's mouth died down, and black smoke rose.

The big eyes were full of doubts, and Hector didn't understand why the little bug in front of him knew its name.

"Can you stop in front?" David said, pointing to a mountain peak in the distance.

Not long after David landed with the Norwegian Ridgeback, Hector stopped not far from him, and did not attack.

But Hector's eyes were still turning vigilantly, watching every move of David and the Norwegian Ridgeback.

David wanted to try it, so he called out the unicorn and let it walk to the center of the field.

Hector's eyes widened, and his emotions suddenly became violent.

A puff of smoke dissipated, and Hector appeared in front of David, protecting the unicorn, and the deep dragon roar continued to sound, as if he was whispering to the unicorn.

Because of the obstruction of Hector's body, David couldn't see what happened, and he couldn't watch it through the illustrated book to prevent another accident.

The sun went down completely.

David said lightly: "Fluorescence flashes."

A ball of light emerged from the end of the wand to provide him with light.

Hector's dragon roar gradually subsided, and he turned his head to take a deep look at David.

David saw a teardrop glistening in the corner of its eye.

"Roar!"

Hector suddenly roared, kicked his strong feet on the ground, and flew into the distance with his wings flapping.

On the empty ground, only the unicorn was left standing blankly, looking in the direction Hector left.

After a while, Hector disappeared into the sky. David walked up to the unicorn, touched its head, and was about to take it back, but it suddenly dispersed by itself.

This was the first time this had happened, and David wanted to call it out again to see what was going on.

But the illustrated book just shook, and no unicorn appeared.

Are they actually alive at all?

Completely has its own consciousness?
The scenes of summoning magical animals again and again appeared in David's mind.

From being dazed at the beginning, to gradually becoming wiser later, and now to being like a living thing
Is the illustrated book really absorbing their magic power?

David looked at the Norwegian Ridgeback lying on the side.

It felt David's gaze, thought he was going back, and immediately moved to David's side.

David's palm stroked the scales of the Norwegian Ridgeback, and he felt a chill in his palm.

It's similar to touching a real dragon, but it's cleaner, without the stains of living in the wild.

Whether it is true or false.
Just take my word for it.

With peace of mind, David climbed onto Norway's back along its wings, and patted its back with his right hand.

The Norwegian Ridgeback flew towards the castle obediently.

After the outline of the castle could be seen from a distance, David let the Norwegian Ridgeback fall into the forest below.

Some red-eyed animals thought it was food delivery, they yelled and shuttled among the trees, and soon arrived around David.

David frowned and asked the Norwegian Ridgeback to stop those guys. He found a safe place and disappeared in place.

Then the Norwegian Ridgeback spewed out a mouthful of dragon flames, causing the surrounding animals to flee in a hurry. When they came back to their senses, there was nothing in the center of the field.

At a dark corner in the side corridor of the auditorium, David quietly looked around and saw no one around here, so he walked out with confidence.

As the auditorium approached, the voices of people began to become noisy, and the enthusiasm of the students for the arrival of the fire dragon had not yet dissipated.

David was just about to blend into the crowd silently when he heard a cold voice from the side.

"Scamander, how many points do you think Gryffindor will take for your actions?"

Snape stood against a stone pillar in the auditorium, his hair was disheveled, and his eyes were full of anger. It was obvious that the experimental research was interrupted again, which made him extremely uncomfortable.

"What are you talking about? Professor." David said with a silly smile.

"If I remember correctly, you should have been here a few hours ago." Snape sneered, "Gryffindor will deduct fifty points for your curiosity."

"Professor." As soon as David spoke, Professor McGonagall hurried out from the pile of students: "Although David's behavior of sneaking out should be criticized, he asked the house elves to rescue many students in the tower should also be commended, so Gryffindor will add sixty points to it."

Sixty points, this is the highest score ever added by Professor McGonagall, and it was from her own college. She was also a little cautiously excited.

Snape's lips moved, but he couldn't think of any reason to refute.

After all, it was the [-] points he deducted first, and Professor McGonagall only added [-] points, which is already very conscientious. If he is a student of his academy today, he would like to fill up the hourglass.

It's a pity, it's not!
Think of the group of unsatisfactory guys.

Snape flicked his sleeves angrily, turned his head and walked to another corner.

"David, thank you." With tears in the corners of Professor McGonagall's eyes, she hugged David gently, and she was rarely so excited.

After placing the students this afternoon, McGonagall and other professors sent the captured animals to the rooms where the Sorcerer's Stone level was set up last year.

And in order to quickly restore these animals to their original state, they have been staying inside for research.

By the time they realized something was wrong, the fire dragon had already flown around the castle and crashed into Gryffindor's tower.

Professor McGonagall, who came out of the local room, saw this scene, and his heart sank to the bottom of the valley. The scene of students crying under the gravel could not help appearing in his mind, and some students might even lose their lives.

Professor McGonagall shuddered, picked up his robe and ran to the Gryffindor Tower.

But on the way, she was surprised to find that the Gryffindor students seemed to come out unharmed?
After careful questioning, Professor McGonagall learned that the house elves sent them out.

Professor McGonagall was even more surprised. You must know that not all house elves can make up their own minds like Dobby. They usually need orders before they can do something.

This is also for the safety of the wizards. After all, the magic power of the house elves is much stronger than that of ordinary wizards.

And there is only one person who can barely command the house elves at Hogwarts, and that is Dumbledore.

Is he back?

After the fire dragon left with the other dragon, Professor McGonagall immediately went to the kitchen to ask the house-elf.

After a group of small men looked at each other for a few moments, a bolder one stood up and said timidly: "We are just helping our good friend, Mr. David Scamander."

After Professor McGonagall knew all this, he returned to the auditorium to thank David, but after searching around, he couldn't even find his shadow.

There was no way, Professor McGonagall found Harry and the others, but no matter how hard they asked, they all hesitated and refused to say anything.

Finally, after Professor McGonagall clarified the danger David might encounter, the few of them finally opened their mouths and said softly: "David may have gone outside to find the fire dragon."

This frightened Professor McGonagall, she hurriedly turned around and was about to go out when she heard Snape's voice.
Professor McGonagall touched David's head, and her mood calmed down. She let go of David, put her hands on his shoulders, and said sternly: "If this kind of thing happens again next time, you must stay with everyone Together, no matter how curious you are, you can't make fun of your own life."

"I see, Professor." David nodded repeatedly.

The serious expression on Professor McGonagall's face didn't last long, and he put on a kind smile again: "I'll forgive you this time, go, your friends are waiting for you, they are all good boys .”
