Hogwarts Raven's Claw

Chapter 132: Strange Return

The fireball fell into the team, causing a violent explosion, which blew all the fairy knights surrounding the periphery into pieces.

At this time, the greedy and cowardly nature of the goblins was exposed. Although the remaining goblin knights were still numerous, they actually left the team and fled when they saw that their commander was unknown whether he was dead or alive and Mike was still commanding fireballs to kill their companions.

All of this was seen by Mike who had activated his magical perception. Not only that, Mike also sensed the situation in the center of the cavalry team.

None of the goblin spellcasters fled, and all of them surrounded the eight-eyed goblin. The spellcasters on the periphery once again put up a shield, and perhaps because the range was smaller, the shield was much stronger this time, and it actually withstood Mike's continuous bombardment.

The remaining goblin spellcasters were concentrating on treating the eight-eyed goblin.

But their efforts were in vain. The eight-eyed monster, which was hit directly by the killing curse, was beyond help and its soul had been annihilated.

Mike knew that those armored goblin knights were insignificant trash, so he didn't bother with them. He waved his wand repeatedly, releasing the Earth Spike spell again and again to bypass the shield and attack those casting spells from underground.

Slender stone spears emerged from the ground at an angle. Due to their incredible length and the fact that they were stabbed out at an angle, one spear could often pierce through several spellcasters.

Seeing this, the other spellcasters rushed to treat their companions around them, but it was too late. As a large number of spellcasters had their spells interrupted by the sudden severe pain, the shields above their heads had become weak and were easily shattered by Mike's fireball.

Dozens of fireballs fell from the sky, mixed with a few red light balls that seemed to be made of liquid. These light balls were specially made by Mike, and their functions were similar to incendiary bombs, but the effects were much stronger than incendiary bombs.

As the fireball landed, the red flames spread rapidly, soon turning the location of the casters into a fiery inferno.

The spellcasters in the sea of ​​fire desperately cast healing spells to heal themselves but to no avail.

Their wounds had just healed but would soon be burned again, and the severe pain stimulated them to let out miserable howls.

Hearing the tragic howling behind them, the fairy knights ran even faster.

Seeing victory in sight, Mike's heart finally settled down.

But the next moment something strange happened. The female voice that Mike had heard when he first entered the light gate sounded again.

As the female voice continued, the expressions of the fleeing fairy knights all changed, and they turned around and rushed towards Mike like robots receiving orders.

The spellcasters were in a similar state to the goblin knights, and had all abandoned the eight-eyed goblins. However, the spellcasters were all trapped in the sea of ​​fire, and when they stopped trying to save themselves, they actually accelerated their own deaths.

Mike looked up at the sky. He now understood that the female voice should be from Ravenclaw's soul.

Although he didn't know why she wanted to kill him so much, even to the point of forcibly intervening in the trial she had set before her death, it was too late now.

With a sneer, Mike raised his magic wand and pointed it at the attacking knights. The tip of the wand suddenly glowed with fire, and a dazzling purple fire snake spewed out.

Those knights seemed to have no fear of this feeling at all. They continued to charge forward despite Mike's fire spell, risking their own lives. They were completely different from their previous performance.

However, it was all in vain. Mike's purple flame had an extremely high temperature. Although the metal armors of the fairy knights seemed to be of high quality and showed no signs of melting under Mike's flame spell, they still had excellent thermal conductivity like ordinary metals.

Soon, the knights fell to the ground with wailing. Smoke came out from the gaps in their armor, and the air was filled with the aroma of barbecue. After using the killing curse to deal with the last goblin knight, Mike once again raised his 12-point vigilance and used the brain occlusion technique with all his strength.

After the last trial, a large amount of Ravenclaw's memories flooded into Mike's brain. Mike instinctively felt that if he allowed those memories to invade his brain again, something very bad would happen.

The surrounding sea of ​​light vibrated violently, and with the vibration, the sea of ​​light composed of blue light particles rolled like real waves.

A few waves hit Mike's body, but the expected huge force did not come. The light particles were like some special energy bodies. Most of them penetrated Mike's body and continued to roll away. A few light particles stayed in Mike's body, turning into a warm current that quickly increased Mike's magic and mental strength.

Mike squinted his eyes and enjoyed the pleasure of the surge in magic power and mental strength. At this moment, Mike felt that all his previous hard work was worth it.

However, the woman's voice came again at this time, and Mike felt a strong force coming and pushing himself hard.

The light around him dimmed instantly, and the growth of his magic power and mental strength came to an abrupt halt.

When Mike opened his eyes, he found himself back in the Ravenclaw common room.

"Fuck! You bastard!" Mike kicked the statue of Ms. Ravenclaw hard.

The time when the blue light particles entered his body was not long, so his magic power and mental strength did not increase much. This was not what Mike expected. He originally expected that this wave of trials should at least increase his magic power by another 10%, but now, it has not even reached half of his expectations.

After staring at the statue of Ms. Ravenclaw for a long time, Mike's mind, which was overwhelmed by anger, gradually calmed down.

Everything that happened tonight was weird. First, the light gate rejected his entry. Then, the originally stable battlefield scene suddenly collapsed. Even when seeing that Mike was about to win, the residual soul of Ravenclaw intervened in the trial. Finally, after the trial was completed, he was directly ejected.

After thinking for a long time, as if he had thought of something, Mike's expression suddenly became very strange.

"Isn't she afraid of me?"

Mike was shocked when she said this. She was a Ravenclaw, one of the founders of Hogwarts, a legendary wizard who once caused the wizarding families of the entire continent to panic. Although there was only a small piece of soul in front of her, how could she be afraid of a second-year wizard apprentice?

"If it's not because of me, then what you are really afraid of should be..."

Mike murmured as he took out the raven-shaped greed pendant from around his neck.

The light gate was opened again, and Mike extended the pendant towards the light gate.

As expected, a repulsive force far greater than the last time erupted from the light gate again, and the closer the pendant was, the greater the repulsive force became, as if it really didn't want the Greed Pendant to enter the light gate.

The pendant also emitted a faint blue light to counteract that power.

Mike showed a sneer on his face.

You may not believe it, but according to the outline, I was going to write ten chapters to tell how Michael turned the tide in the war between wizards and the army of monsters led by ancient goblins. But, readers are God, you said you don’t like to read stories about ancient times, so I had to cut it down.
