The Magical Principles of Natural Philosophy at Hogwarts

In a rural town, incidents of stray animals stealing food are not uncommon.

But this is Hogsmeade, a village full of wizards.

However, the big black dog itself does not look like an ordinary animal. It may have been raised by other wizards. It drank some potions or was affected by magic and thus possessed some special abilities.

Considering that the vast majority of people in the magic society are civilians, who usually use magic in the form of rays, but don't have much experience in aiming at moving targets, they may indeed be helpless when facing a flexible animal.

This is the disadvantage of releasing magic in the form of rays. If it fails to hit, it will have no effect.

This is one of the main reasons for enforcing the secrecy law. Many civilians in the magical society cannot even win against a slightly larger beast, so they naturally need to be protected.After all, the number of fighters in a group is a small number, not all of them have the talent for fighting and have enough fighting will.

Erwin looked away, lowered his wizard hat, and prepared to walk out of the village.

But he suddenly felt a cold feeling.

Directly across from him, two figures shrouded in black robes slowly walked over, one of them should be a wizard, while the other was in a floating state, his feet could not be seen under the tattered black cloth robe, and he was exposed His hands were full of festering marks.

"That's..." Erwin stood upright, frowning slightly.

"Dementor." Riddle suddenly said at this time, "You actually went back to Hogsmeade? Interesting, what kind of strange method did Dumbledore teach you, so that you can accomplish such a thing so easily?" Teleportation far away?"

Due to Erwin's strict awareness of prevention, Riddle didn't know the existence of the Novena space.

Erwin didn't respond to his question, but frowned slightly, "Why are the dementors here?"

"What else can I do? Search for fugitives."

"Searching for fugitives? There are 6000 million people in the British Empire alone. If I were a fugitive, I would be exhausted by finding any Muggle area to hide in. How could I be so stupid as to choose such an obvious wizarding village as my home?" The hiding place?" Erwin asked back.

"Maybe they have clear information and think that the fugitive will definitely appear near here." Riddle said lazily.

Whatever the truth, Erwin now realizes that now that Hogsmeade is under martial law, it would be inappropriate to teleport here himself.

Because his true identity is not easy to reveal.

The Ministry of Magic should have set up an inspection checkpoint at the entrance of the village, and Erwin may need to explain why he appeared in the village but did not register at the inspection checkpoint, which would immediately expose the fact that he was using Apparation illegally.

He suddenly understood why the owner of Zuko's Joke Shop was so worried about talking to the clerk about the fugitive. It turned out that the whole of Hogsmeade was deeply affected.

This was something Erwin hadn't expected at all.

Fortunately, he was still relatively far away from the other party at this time. Erwin already had plans to use Apparition to leave this right and wrong place directly. All previous plans were cancelled, and safety came first.

Anyway, he hasn't revealed his true colors now, and the Ministry of Magic won't know who he is.

However, suddenly, a bone-piercing chill came from behind.

Without thinking, Erwin activated the ring almost instantly, and part of Erwin's magic power reserve was consumed in an instant, and then quickly replenished.

Using the ring as the medium, the magic power is transformed into a seamless position centered on Erwin and scattered outward.Something was forcibly pushed away, and there was a low, angry growl from behind.

Erwin did not turn around immediately at this time, but activated the strong ruler ring again, this time precisely controlling the repulsive force to concentrate on the back, completely repelling the attacker.

Only then did he turn his head, and found that it was another dementor, which was quite human overall, covered in tattered black cloth, spraying despair and coldness.

For some reason, Erwin felt that this dementor was a little strange.

But it's impossible to care about this at this time, Erwin realizes that something is wrong.

He was actually attacked by a dementor.

Sure enough, a wizard in the uniform of the Ministry of Magic trotted over, pointing his wand unceremoniously at Erwin, "Take off the mask! Put down the wand! If you choose to resist, we will not be able to ensure that you will not be harmed by the dementors!"

Damn!

Erwin cursed secretly, and at this moment the dementor on the other side also approached him immediately, but the wizard who was very similar to the dementor stopped in his tracks, and didn't intend to move forward.

"You..." The dementor who attacked Erwin first groaned, the deep black hole under the rag hood was facing Erwin, and it was unclear whether it was an eye or a mouth.

"Don't be touched by the dementors, you will be in big trouble!" Riddle reminded.

"Thank you for the reminder!" Erwin responded angrily.

Long-distance apparation requires sufficient preparation, and at the same time must maintain absolute concentration without being disturbed. This is impossible to realize in battle, so Erwin cannot directly teleport back to the Novena space now, and can only use Short-range apparition within line-of-sight.

With a slight explosion, Erwin's figure suddenly turned into smoke, and then appeared on the roof more than [-] meters away.

Out of the corner of his eye, he saw the black canine gnawing on the ham it had stolen in a corner not far away.

But at this time, there is no time to pay attention to this animal.

The wizard in the uniform of the Ministry of Magic did not attack Erwin immediately, but used a megaphone spell to let out a roar that resounded throughout Hogsmeade, "Suspicious person found!"

At the same time he raised his wand to the sky, shooting red fireworks.

There is no doubt that this is calling for reinforcements.

Erwin is extremely depressed, which is fine, now he's considered the fugitive Sirius Black.

And to make matters worse, he couldn't reveal his true identity.

It's a tough situation.

Those two dementors soared into the air and rushed towards Erwin. As spirit creatures, they naturally have the ability to fly. At the same time, more dementors floated from other places in Hogsmeade. Get up and gather here, there are more than ten of them.

Erwin immediately cast the Stealth Four Curse on himself, and then Apparated to 20 meters away again.

However, the dementor immediately changed direction and was still coming towards him.

"It's useless." Riddle chuckled strangely. "The dementors don't use conventional means to perceive your existence, so the Disillusionment Curse and the like won't work on them."

"So the Ministry of Magic brought the dementors here to let them play the role of dogs? How can I block their perception?"

"The best way is...to kill them directly." Riddle said unhurriedly.

Erwin apparated one after another, but he couldn't get rid of the following dementors. Is it necessary to activate a strong repelling ring to make the approaching dementors retreat, and when these dementors gather, Erwin feels My mental state has been greatly affected.

The fear halo abilities of these guys can actually be superimposed.

"Use the Patronus Charm?" Erwin asked Riddle while using the spell.

Fortunately, after hearing about the dementors during the summer vacation, I practiced it casually.

This spell dedicated to dealing with dementors can be used in two ways, one is to summon the persistent patron saint animal, and the other is to directly release the magic wave with repelling power.

Erwin uses the latter because the effect of this form is quite a bit more pronounced.

The dementors retreated, but only temporarily.

The effect was unsatisfactory, and Erwin had to constantly cast the Patronus Charm to keep the Dementors from approaching, but this way he could not use other magic.

"Most of the time the Patronus Charm can only repel you, so you should use... Avada Kedavra."

"Avada Kedavra?" Erwin reacted quickly, "It should be because the dementors themselves are spirit bodies, so Avada Kowalow, which essentially kills souls, is also effective for them?"

"That's right." Riddle said in a childish tone.

"But isn't that nonsense?" Erwin rolled his eyes.

Avada Kedavra may not be the highest level of black magic, but the difficulty of learning is also in the forefront of all spells, requiring many prerequisite learning conditions.

With Erwin's current research on black magic, it is far from being able to throw out green light.

And at this time, a dark-skinned wizard suddenly apparated near Erwin, raised his hand and cast a stun spell on him.

Ring of Armor triggers, negating it.

The wizard looked surprised, and Erwin had already Apparated to the other side.

But he was hit by a red beam from another direction, another wizard who had disapparated.

Support from the Ministry of Magic has arrived.

In just a dozen seconds, seven or eight wizards came through apparition and formed a circle around Erwin.

They should have been nearby just now, and rushed over immediately after receiving the signal.

Although the overall governing efficiency of the Ministry of Magic appears to be very low, it is, after all, the magic department with the highest authority in the UK, and it has the strength to maintain order.

Erwin seems to be unable to fly even with wings.

The good news is that these wizards don't seem to like the dementors, and while surrounding Erwin, they also drove back the spirit monsters.

But the pressure is even greater when facing these wizards.

These people should represent the fighting power of the Ministry of Magic, and they are probably all Aurors.

"Drop your wand and stop resisting." The customary final warning.

Erwin responded by acting as if he was about to Apparate over a long distance.

So more than a dozen spells bombarded him in an instant.

It's not bad, after all, it belongs to the power to maintain order, and it is not possible to use spells like Avada Kedavra to kill you as soon as you meet,
