Chapter 149 A Sudden Fire!

Severe pain came from his back. Professor Flitwick gritted his teeth and reached out to touch his back. A large amount of blood suddenly stained his right hand red.

Years of experience as a duelist made him realize at once that he must have had a hole in his back, and if he didn't stop the bleeding quickly, he might die.

"Why?" He endured the pain and stared at Lockhart's face.

The other hand slowly touched his arms.

"Why?" Professor Lockhart stopped smiling when he heard this and sighed:

"Professor Flitwick, I can't help it. I have the leverage in someone else's hands, so I have to do this."

"However." He said and laughed again, "I also got something. This magic is really convenient to use. Professor Flitwick, if you were me, I probably wouldn't refuse."

Professor Flitwick took a deep breath: "Does the secret room matter have anything to do with you?"

"How should I put it?" Professor Lockhart said, "It is indeed related to me, but I am an accomplice at best. I can't tell you more about the specific details."

"What about Ginny? Is it related to you too?"

"That girl?" Lockhart smiled and shrugged:

"I took her away, and I feel sorry for her tragic fate, but everything is doomed.

She is probably having a nightmare now, but it won't last long. Soon, the adult will let her rest in peace. "

"She is your student!" Flitwick stared at him with bloodshot eyes.

Lockhart spread his hands and said helplessly: "I know, Professor Flitwick, I know this very well. But now the situation is very clear. Everyone is being manipulated by that adult. Even if I resist, it is just too much." One person dies.”

He pointed at Flitwick and said in a story-telling tone, "You don't need to feel sorry for that girl, because your end will not be much better than hers..."

"Oh." Professor Lockhart suddenly reacted, patted his head and said:

"I seem to have said too much. I need to change my habit of telling stories. Then now, it's time to ask Professor Flitwick and you... go to hell!"

"Split into pieces!"

He turned back suddenly, pointed his wand at Professor Flitwick, and a gray light shot towards Flitwick's face!

Originally, he was supposed to see Flitwick's fearful and panicked look and then die, but the next second, he froze, and then let out a panicked shout:

"No!"

Buzz! A ray of white light tore through the gray beam in an instant and shot into Lockhart's eyes, causing him to completely lose the vision of his right eye and only feel a vast expanse of white!

Immediately, a surge of abundant power came, like a sledgehammer, knocking his entire body away!

The magic wand in his right hand flew out instantly!

He fell down and was beaten to pieces. He finally recovered, and then he realized that he was not dead? !

Lockhart was stunned for a moment and immediately looked at Professor Flitwick.

Flitwick's short figure walked slowly over. His clothes were still dripping with blood. The injury behind him was very serious. A big hole was blown out and he was bleeding profusely.

But his face was very calm, and he walked towards him step by step.

He replied in a calm tone:

"I am not you, Lockhart, and I will not kill you. Your destination is Azkaban."

"Professor Flitwick, has anyone ever said that your condescending attitude is really annoying?" Professor Lockhart gritted his teeth and stood up from the ground, looking at Flitwick.

He suddenly lost consciousness and laughed again,

"Besides, I guarantee that if you don't kill me, it will definitely be the decision you regret most in your life..."

"Really?" Professor Flitwick raised his wand again, pointed it at Lockhart, and recited a spell.

"Fainted..."

Before he finished speaking, boom!

A huge shadow suddenly appeared behind Flitwick, and he bit out a bloody mouth!

Professor Flitwick was startled, and his body immediately turned radiant and collapsed! ! ! A wave of air swept across, and the armor with the flowing light was instantly shattered. The next moment, the whole person was blown away by the huge force, flew upside down for more than ten meters, and spurted out a large stream of blood when he landed on the ground!

"I told you." Lockhart bent down, picked up his wand from the ground, and patted the mud off it.

He looked at Flitwick and showed a bright smile:

"Not killing me was your biggest mistake. I know you were once an outstanding duelist, but what's the use?

Can a duelist carry a seriously injured body into a duel with the monster in the secret room? "

"The monster in the secret room?" Flitwick struggled to get up. The injury on his back caused him to spit out a large mouthful of blood.

Now I feel extremely weak, and my eyes are double.

Even breathing became extremely heavy.

But as soon as he got up, a huge monster came in front of him. Its body was so huge, with snake scales all over it. He could fully imagine how thick the monster's skin was. It might be as thick as the towering outer wall of the castle!

Can't look at it, can't look into its eyes! Flitwick originally wanted to raise his head to see what it looked like, but he was startled and lowered his head suddenly.

He remembered what Professor McGonagall once told him about the monster in the Chamber of Secrets.

This is obviously the same as what Professor McGonagall said, it is very conclusive, this is a basilisk!

An ancient creature that can kill people with its eyes!

"Don't think you'll be fine if you avoid its eyes." Lockhart's laughter came.

"It is far more terrifying than you think, Professor Flitwick. You will probably die under its sharp teeth soon, and die in great pain..."

Professor Flitwick had just wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth when his heart suddenly sank when he heard Lockhart's words.

Trouble...

…

Gryffindor Tower.

Harry, Ron, and Hermione were hiding under the invisibility cloak. They were standing in the stairwell on the first floor, but they saw the only door of the tower locked. Professor McGonagall was sitting on a stool, frowning at the side. Thinking about something.

"How are we going to get out now?" Ron was a little anxious, "If we don't hurry up, maybe Ginny will..."

"Don't worry, Ron." Harry patted his shoulder and said,

"It'll be okay, we can find a way out and find Ginny."

"I have a way." Hermione suddenly said,

"Let me create some noise and attract Professor McGonagall to come over. You can take the opportunity to open the door and leave Gryffindor Tower."

"This..." Harry was stunned.

Although Ron was anxious, he still shook his head and said, "No! You will be expelled if you do that."

Professor McGonagall warned him after telling him about Ginny yesterday.

If you act alone at this time, it will be very dangerous, it will also increase the burden on the professors, and it will delay the search for Ginny.

She also said seriously that if he really ran away and came back safely by chance, he would definitely be severely punished by the school.

So even though he was very anxious at this time, worried about Ginny's safety, and wanted to break out of Gryffindor Tower to find Ginny's whereabouts, Ron was not willing to let Hermione bear the consequences.

"There is no other way now." Hermione looked at him seriously, "Listen, Ron, if you want to find Ginny and protect her, you have to do this! In addition, you take this piece of paper with you..."

"This is it?" Harry took the paper.

"The monster in the Chamber of Secrets is probably a basilisk. This is information about the basilisk that I accidentally found in a book I borrowed from the library. You may face it..." Hermione said quickly,

"Also, I have been thinking about it for a long time these days, and I have been thinking about how the basilisk escaped the professors' search.

Later, I figured out that the only place in Hogwarts that could accommodate it was underground! For underground pipes, follow this direction to find them. "

After she finished speaking, she turned around and lifted up a corner of her invisibility cloak to lure Professor McGonagall away alone.

"Hermione!" Ron anxiously tried to hold her back.

At this time, boom!

Several people were stunned for a moment when a huge explosion came from upstairs! Immediately, there were frequent screams, countless hurried footsteps, and a voice suddenly shouted:

"Fire! It's on fire!"

"Fire?" Harry and the three looked at each other in surprise.

Professor McGonagall also heard the sound, her expression changed, she pulled up the hem of her robe and hurried up the stairs.

At this time, fire broke out on the fifth and eighth floors of Gryffindor Tower. The flames jumped out of the corridor and out of the windows. The fire was terrifying. Then, the fire poured into the stairs and began to burn towards Gryffindor. The seventh floor has multiple dormitories!

In an unoccupied room in the corner of the twelfth floor, a fire also began to spread.

A figure pushed open the door of this room, walked out of the firelight, raised his head, and revealed the face of Colin Creevey, but his eyes were blank and shrouded in black mist.
