The Rise of the Muggles at Hogwarts

A bright, golden-red ring of fire surrounds the rock.

A majestic lion jumped out of the flames. It glanced at Anthony first, then raised its head proudly, roared, and rushed towards the Inferi.

Ok?

lion?

Anthony looked at the fiery lion in great surprise.

He remembered that the last two times he released the Fire Spell were all fire dragons.Why did he become a lion this time, and——

Why does that lion look so much like his patron saint?

Yes, Anthony has been able to successfully summon a physical guardian after more than a month of practice. Although he doesn't know why, his guardian angel is indeed a lion.

And the most peculiar thing is that he found that he seemed to be able to perfectly control the fiery lion. Although it was difficult, but - he really could.

Then Anthony raised his wand high like a torch, and flames shot out from the tip of the wand, like a huge and dangerous lasso, surrounding the Inferi.

The golden-red flames continuously cleanse the surrounding Inferi. The temperature of the flame is extremely high, and the Inferi that it touches are directly turned into ashes, while the remaining Inferi collide with each other, trying to escape from the flames surrounding them. .....

Unfortunately, it was impossible at that time. Anthony was immediately overjoyed, but just as he was about to send all the Inferi to hell, the wand he was holding suddenly trembled inexplicably.Then, the flames began to lose control of him.

'boom! With a sound, the lion looked back at him and exploded instantly, and a brutal fire dragon was born in the storm of flames.

"Looks like I need to practice more!" Although the Fire Curse was still out of control, Anthony was not discouraged. At least the lion corresponding to his patron saint had proven that he could master this curse. , if he can truly control this terrible black magic, perhaps a unique and powerful magic that belongs only to him will be born in his hands.

But now...

It's more important to run for your life now.

Without saying a word, Anthony turned around and jumped into the box.

The moment he jumped down, he also waved his wand to gather the surrounding stones. When he entered the box, the stones gathered together and covered up the box that had shrunk to the size of a palm again.

-

"Bang-bang!" The sound of various bottles and jars breaking was heard.

Those were knocked over by Anthony when he fell from the ladder.

"Ah!" He lay on the ground and covered his head, his feet still hanging on the wooden ladder. "I should put a cushion under the ladder."

"One may not be enough." Harry walked over with a smile and helped Anthony up.

Just now, he was lying on the ladder and saw Anthony's feat. The golden flames swept across the lake, like a sharp sword, cutting through the dead darkness.It’s so spectacular, but also so terrifying!

He saw with his own eyes that all the Inferi that came into contact with the flames were burned to ashes in just a few breaths.He didn't think that his small body could be much stronger than those inferi.

"What should we do now?" Harry continued, his eyes constantly looking towards Regulus' body beside him.What he meant was how to deal with this moving corpse.

"Don't look at me. I'm a prophet, not omniscient! I don't know how to remove the dark magic of the Inferi." To be precise, Anthony searched for magic books about the Inferi in the Hogwarts library for a long time, but none of them mentioned it. How to create the Inferi? Anthony guessed that Tom Riddle destroyed the relevant books, or Dumbledore removed the books from the library.Just like he removed the books recording the Horcruxes.

He doesn't even know how to make it, and naturally he can't even know how to remove it.

"Find a rope to tie him up first." Anthony said, covering the bulging bag on his head.

"I don't know how long the petrification spell will last, but obviously the Inferi's resistance to the spell is stronger than that of ordinary wizards. He may break free of petrification after a while." Then he picked up the glass bottle on the ground and said. .

"Huh? Will you break free?" Harry looked at the hard body of Regulus on the ground with lingering fear.

He had just personally experienced the power of the Inferi, which was simply astonishing and completely beyond the scope of human beings.

If it hadn't been for a tractor pulling him, Regulus would have fled back into the lake because of the flames spitting out from the gun.

"Leave it to Kreacher!" The elf on the side came up. He first bowed solemnly to Harry and Anthony, and then stared at them eagerly, "Kreacher will guard Master Regulus. .”

"Then I'll leave it to you." Looking at Kreacher's big eyes swollen from crying, Anthony didn't care and threw him a bundle of rope.

"Thank you, Master Anthony! You are such a good man." Kreacher wiped the snot from his nose with the rag on his body, and murmured to himself while dragging Regulus' body; "Master! Kreacher wants to take You go home, Kreacher wants to take you home."

Seeing this, Harry couldn't help but asked curiously: "Anthony, why do you think Kreacher likes Regulus so much? I mean, Sirius is also the heir of the Black family, and he is the eldest son. Although he ran away from home in the end, But the gap between Kreacher's treatment of the two is really huge. You have never seen Kreacher and Sirius together. Sirius would beat him up even if they couldn't even say a few words."

"And..." Harry frowned, as if he was thinking about something: "Kreacher also said that he did not tell the mistress about this matter. In his heart, Regulus has a higher status than Mrs. Black. high?"

"Of course not, Harry." After Anthony straightened the last jar containing potion ingredients, he began to look up and down at his masterpiece.Cabinets line both sides of the wall.

Different from the little house in Newt's box, his little house is larger, a two-story mansion.

The exit floor is a warehouse with several different rooms, displaying various things, such as movie projectors, generators, oil barrels, tractors, and various MI[-] gadgets. , he has them all here.

In addition, there are various potion materials. Ever since he discovered Sirocco's 'wonderful use', he has been to the Huohuo Forbidden Forest frequently.Of course he mainly deals with some dark magical animals.

He filled two entire rooms with just various Acromantula materials, each of which was the size of a school classroom.

From the wooden staircase next to the balcony of the warehouse to the first floor, there is his living area.

He has the kitchen, living room, bathroom, three bedrooms, and all the normal rooms here.

As for the outside.

It was quite different from Newt's. It was a forest and grassland about a mile in diameter.

He hasn't figured out what those areas will be used for yet, so he just leaves them there, planting some flowers and plants as a backdrop.

"Regulus..." Anthony then continued the topic outside the cave and told in detail everything that happened in the cave.

After Voldemort laid the trap in the cave, he needed a test subject to test his masterpiece.

He asked his servants for a house elf to do a 'great' job.

The young Regulus still had illusions about Tom Riddle. He really thought that what Tom said about changing the wizarding world was true. He also always thought that he was walking on a righteous path. .

So he sacrificed Kreacher without any hesitation.In his opinion, it was his honor and the honor of the Black family that Kreacher could engage in a 'great' career.

Of course - after Kreacher apparated back from the hands of the Inferi, Regulus's dream was shattered.

Anthony was sure that Regulus, who had just graduated from Hogwarts, must have been struggling at home for a long time.During those days when his faith collapsed, he locked himself in his room and constantly looked at himself, his family, and even Sirius, his brother.

It turned out that his brother was correct, and he...

Maybe in Sirius's eyes, he was a clown.

After a period of struggle, Regulus finally let Kreacher take him to the cave.

But this time, it was not Kreacher who drank the potion and took out the pendant, but Regulus himself.

"Himself?" Harry said in surprise. The two of them had arrived in the living room on the first floor. Anthony made a cup of coffee. It was too cold in the cave, so he used this to warm himself up.

"That's right, otherwise how could he be dragged down by those terrible things? Become one of them."

"Regulus knew that drinking the potion would kill him, but he drank it himself instead of letting Kreacher drink it."

"That's why Kreacher..." Harry looked at Kreacher in surprise, tying Regulus to a tree in front of the courtyard.

If it were him, maybe he would give his life for his friends, but that was a house elf—he couldn't be sure.

And... Kreacher seems to be fine, so the potion doesn't work on elves?

Harry's head was in a mess at this time, but it was undeniable that in that era, when Voldemort was at the height of his power, Regulus chose to resist, which in itself was a heroic act.

Then Harry sighed, Sirius must not know how brave his brother is.

In his mind, maybe Regulus was just a fool who was fooled by Voldemort.

----

The two of them drank a cup of coffee for a long time.

Kreacher was sitting in front of the courtyard, chatting to Regulus.

But Anthony didn't seem to be in a hurry. He didn't know when the fierce fire curse would subside, and he didn't know if the group of Inferi could be completely eliminated. If not, how long would it take for the island to return to peace.

These are unknowns, and he would rather stay here for more time.Even if he stayed there permanently, he had nothing to fear. The food stored in the hut was enough for him and Harry to eat for several months.

And there is still land outside. If they can farm it, it will be enough for them to survive.

In this way, he and Harry sat in the living room and chatted for several hours. After that, he walked back to the second floor via the stairs, followed the wooden ladder, and quietly opened a corner of the box.

In an instant, the box returned to its normal size, and Anthony stretched his head and looked outside.

——Well——it’s so dark that you can’t see anything.

"Lumos!" Dots of fluorescent light rose at the tip of Anthony's wand.

Relying on the faint light, he could see his surroundings clearly.

The calm lake surface seemed as if nothing had happened just now, and the island was clean, not even a bullet casing was left.

"The protective magic here is really powerful." Anthony couldn't help but sigh. Everything around him was definitely cleared by the magic left by Voldemort.

After so many years, it still has such effect, Voldemort can be said to be powerful.

"Okay, Harry, it's time for us to leave." He lowered his head and said to Harry on the side of the wooden ladder.

"and many more..."

"Um? What's wrong Anthony?" Harry asked.

"fxxx, someone is coming." Anthony lowered his head and said. Just now, he actually saw the boat that was parked on the lake slowly starting to move towards the mist.

This...this is someone calling it.

"What? Someone? How could it be? Does anyone know about this place?" As he said this, Harry suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart. Apart from them, there was probably only one person who knew about this place.

"Fuck..."

"Don't say that name, Harry." Anthony quickly interrupted, "If it's really that person, he will sense it if you say the name."

"What should we do?" Harry asked anxiously.

Now they are trapped on the island. If Voldemort really comes, will they be able to capture him without mercy?God knows what will happen if you are caught by a dark wizard.

"Let me think about it." As he spoke, Anthony's eyes kept looking around, but there was no place to hide on this bare man-made island. They hid in the box, just to trick the Inferi. Voldemort is not blind, this place is so big, even a palm-sized box is very conspicuous.

Suddenly, a smooth stone caught his attention.

It was a stone located on the left side of the island near the lake. It was not high, only a few dozen inches. It was cylindrical in shape and had a smooth top surface. If placed normally, one foot could step on it.

"Harry, lend me the invisibility cloak." Anthony had an idea and whispered.

"Okay." With that said, Harry ran quickly downstairs. His suitcase was also with Anthony. After all, it was too troublesome to carry a suitcase when going out for fun.

While Harry was going to the stall of the invisibility cloak, Anthony waved his wand gently, and the levitating spell slowly wrapped around the box and flew towards the stone. After landing smoothly on the stone, he wiped his sweat. , it’s not easy to cast magic in this place.If he strayed slightly off the surface of the lake, his floating spell would immediately fail and the box would fall directly into the lake.

Then he took two magic props from the shelf nearby. They were both Weasley's little inventions. One was the spying eye and the other was the retractable ear. The former one was inspired by the video recorder and could be played by the twins. The little eyes on the outside show what they see on a mirror.

The other retractable ear is simple. It looks like a long flesh-colored string. When used, one end is inserted into the person's ear, and the other end is inserted under the door (for example), so that the user can I could hear the conversation going on on the other side of the door as clearly as if I was right next to me.
