Chapter 222 The first meeting with the annual teacher
"The idiots at the Ministry of Magic asked the Dementors to set up a checkpoint in this tunnel. If I remember correctly, the document that Minister Fudge gave you at that time should have described it as a simple check outside the carriage, right?" ?
Lupine asked angrily.
"This is indeed the case, but the current facts are not."
Dumbledore also darkened his face.
"Those monsters got on the car directly. I originally wanted to take action directly, but I found that a few second-year freshmen were very capable. They temporarily blocked the dementors with some simple spells they had learned, so I'm just going to wait and see for a few more minutes."
"Is it Miss Granger? I have to say that she is the most talented and most passionate student I have ever taught in so many years."
Dumbledore nodded in satisfaction.
"Yes, this Miss Granger and her friends blocked the dementors who wanted to break in. I am very satisfied with the quality of this class of students."
A smile appeared on Lupine's lips.
"After learning about their abilities, I opened the door of the compartment and used the Patronus Charm to expel the disgusting dementor, and then it fled deeper into the compartment."
"I was thinking that if I didn't drive that disgusting monster out, it might go to the car in front and hurt other students, so I stepped out of the private room door"...
When Lu Ping said this, he suddenly shivered.
"When I just stepped out of the box door with my right foot, the Dementor that had just escaped flew towards the front of the car as if it had been hit by a Muggle truck, and then hit the Dementor. The hurricane hit me and threw me directly from the door into the box."
"The wind was so violent that I even saw the door number on a box being ripped off by the hurricane, and then twisted and torn into countless pieces in the center of the hurricane!"
"You're fine, but the metal door plate, which is much harder than a human being, was twisted and torn to pieces"?
Dumbledore asked a little strangely.
"Yes, that hurricane seemed to have just hit me inadvertently. I felt that the airflow seemed to be able to correctly identify the target it wanted to kill. Otherwise, I would have been turned into a puddle of minced meat."
Lupine said with a wry smile, then pointed to his still lame leg.
"Based on my experience outside these years, my leg should be broken by now. If you have time now, can you help me treat it?"
"Of course, Professor Lupin."
Dumbledore tapped Lupine's knee with his wand again, and the swelling in the leg quickly subsided.
"Huh? What is this"?
When Dumbledore lowered his head to treat Lupine's knee, he unexpectedly saw something black stuck in the door of a private room.
The thing was originally dark, and there were no lights in the carriage, so no one noticed it in the panic.
"This seems to be an arrow"?
Dumbledore grabbed the crossbow bolt with his hand and tried to pull it off the wall.
But people are old after all. Even though Dumbledore can still kill all directions with the wand in his hand, his physical strength is much worse than when he was young.
"I'll do it, Headmaster Dumbledore."
Lupine, who had just had his knee healed, moved his legs, then approached the door of the box, stretched out his hand and easily pulled out the crossbow arrow, and then handed it to Dumbledore.
"Thank you, Remus."
Dumbledore reached out and took the crossbow.
The crossbow felt surprisingly light in hand. It was completely different from the metal crossbows Dumbledore had seen when he was young. The shaft of this crossbow seemed to be made of some unknown material and was very light.
When Dumbledore looked at the arrow of the crossbow, he was obviously stunned for a moment, and then showed a thoughtful expression.
"Headmaster Dumbledore, I made this thing."
A boy's voice came from behind. Dumbledore stood up and looked back with a smile.
Zhang Qi, who was covering the right half of his face and grinning nonstop, held a pitch-black composite crossbow in his left hand and walked slowly towards here.
"What's wrong? Mr. Hilbert"?
Dumbledore asked
"The right half of my face was rubbed by the gust of wind just now. To be honest, it felt really painful."
Zhang Qi grimaced, then slowly lowered the crossbow along the wall with his left hand.
"What's plated on this is the material left over from surgery"?
Dumbledore picked up the crossbow again, pointed at the arrow, and asked with interest.
"But it's not true. I made it after recycling waste products before. I'm not willing to use such high-concentration materials."
Zhang Qi replied.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Hilbert, although you have saved many classmates with this thing, but I don't want to see a few corpses with crossbow arrows stuck in their heads in the upcoming semester"...
Dumbledore smiled and tried to pick up the composite crossbow with his left hand, but it felt too heavy. In the end, Dumbledore relied on the wand in his hand to let the crossbow arrows float in the air.
"This thing would be an eyesore in the principal's office. Well, Professor Remus, you will keep this thing first. If Mr. Hilbert's results in the final Defense Against the Dark Arts test are very satisfactory to you. , then you can return this thing to him at the end of the semester."
"Okay, Professor Dumbledore."
Lu Ping quickly took the compound crossbow, and then winked mischievously at Zhang Qi when he turned around.
It means that as long as you don't cause any big trouble, I will pay you back in two days.
Zhang Qi also lightly blinked his right eye in response.
"Headmaster Dumbledore"!
The sound of small leather shoes tapping on the ground was heard not far away, and Astoria finally ran over at this time.
Lupine, who was playing with the crossbow in his hand with interest, raised his head, and was shocked to see this weak girl holding a composite crossbow of the same style!
And it’s still with his left hand!
Lupine picked up the thing in his hand with his right hand in disbelief. After confirming that this thing was indeed the God of Death, his eyes widened in surprise.
As a werewolf, I would be much stronger than a normal person, but as a result, I felt a little strenuous when holding this compound crossbow.
However, the girl in front of him was actually able to carry such a heavy thing with one hand and run over as fast as flying. Moreover, her body was very balanced and she did not fall.
This child's body is really not simple.
"Ah, Remus, please, you may need to carry another one."
Dumbledore rubbed his temples with a headache.
This kid has been to China, practiced swordsmanship with his "old friend" who lived in seclusion in West Lake for many years, and lived with Heikemedia for a while...
This temper is becoming more and more out of touch.
