Hogwarts Summoning Guide

Chapter 157 Witch Hunter Dreams and Teamwork

"Ignore them, and don't help them fight!" Bai Lin said to his teammates who were already eager to join the fight. Seeing the wizards being attacked, Kaka and Youxi naturally wanted to go and help, but Qiqi remained indifferent.

Dawan grabbed Bai Lin's arm and said, "Let's attack together and wipe out all these mechanical monsters!"

Bai Lin glanced at him, pulled his arm away, and said, "We are just civilians, we need to take refuge!" With that, he led his teammates to retreat into the sewers.

Dawan's expression froze, and a glint suddenly flashed in his eyes where Bai Lin couldn't see.

"Boom!" Another loud bang echoed through the subway station, as if an 8-magnitude earthquake had struck. Bai Lin staggered, as if something was destroying the roof of the station. Large chunks of concrete collapsed from the roof, and several massive slabs, each weighing at least several tons, along with broken steel bars, crashed into the sewer opening, blocking their escape route.

One loud bang after another, and the wizards in the subway station were instantly trapped.

Finally, with a loud explosion, a large hole was opened in the roof, and a gleaming silver robot jumped out of it.

The robot was thin and tall, with its head almost reaching the ceiling of the subway station, which was more than four meters high. It had no facial features, and its body looked like it was cast from seamless liquid metal. Its limbs were sharp like blades.

Bai Lin stared in surprise from afar. This robot didn't look like any other one; it resembled the Sentinel from X-Men, the one that wiped out mutants. Yet, the robot was attacking a wizard.

A wizard roared and charged out of the crowd, pointing his wand at the robot. A burst of intense red flame shot out from the wand. This seemed to be a variant of the Fiendfyre spell, released faster and with no less power, whereas the ordinary Fiendfyre spell required the flame to grow slowly from a small flame.

The Fiendfire sprayed onto the robot, its outer shell visibly glowing red-hot, but it neither melted nor ignited. As the wizard's flames gradually diminished, a large, dark hole suddenly opened in the robot's head, from which a ball of flame shot out – the very Fiendfire the wizard had just unleashed.

"Damn it, they're using their own methods against them!" Bai Lin couldn't help but complain.

In the robot's raging flames, the wizard didn't even have time to scream before he was melted by the flames, turning into a small pile of charred remains in less than two seconds, completely devoid of human shape.

This scene completely shocked all the wizards. Tom Riddle stepped forward and, instead of casting his famous "Hawaii Dazai Curse," he cast a large-scale Shattering Curse on the robot's head.

The ceiling above them, already crumbling from the robot's damage, collapsed again with a loud crash, burying the robot under a block of concrete.

Meanwhile, the middle-aged Bai Lin had also dealt with most of the drones and used a levitation spell to control a large rock to block the gap. The wizards cheered, as if a savior had once again rescued them from the Muggle machine monsters.

But the cheers lasted less than three seconds before the rock that was pinning down the robot was overturned, and the robot, which had been somewhat deformed, visibly returned to its original shape.

"WTF! Nanotechnology!" Bai Lin couldn't help but exclaim. This was definitely something Asatel had created by reading part of his memories. This kind of technology had only appeared in movies that Bai Lin had seen, leaving a deep impression on him, but it was definitely not something that had been realized around 2020.

Tom Riddle wanted to make another move, but the robot had already slashed out with its sword. Tom Riddle gritted his teeth and could only roll awkwardly on the ground. After London was bombarded by Muggle missiles, the wizards lost their ability to teleport.

The robot swung its sword, and although it didn't directly hit anyone, the two closest wizards were sliced ​​in two diagonally by an invisible sword. Their upper bodies slid off their bodies, and various organs spilled out from the cuts. Only when their upper bodies hit the ground did the two wizards realize they had been killed. They died without even a scream, causing the other wizards to gasp in shock.

"It's the Divine Sword Without Shadow! That machine monster can use the Divine Sword Without Shadow!" Dawan exclaimed.

As expected of the Sentinel robot's design, it absorbs and records the wizards' attack magic, then simulates it to unleash on the wizards.

Without uttering a word, the robot charged into the crowd and began slaughtering the wizards. Wherever its blade struck, limbs were severed and heads were separated, creating a scene of utter horrific carnage.

"Kaelin! Use your summoned beasts! Save us!" a wizard pleaded with the middle-aged Bai Lin.

"I can't do it!..." The middle-aged Bai Lin said with a pained expression, but helplessly, "My summoned beast won't obey me!"

As they were talking, the pleading wizard was also killed by a divine blade without warning, his upper body falling into the arms of the middle-aged Bai Lin, drenched in his blood.

The middle-aged Bai Lin knelt on the ground, crying out in anguish, "God! Give me back my summoning magic! Let me save everyone!"

The robot approached the middle-aged Bai Lin step by step, raising its arm with the sword blade high.

Dawan grabbed Bai Lin's arm and pleaded, "Please, save our savior! I know you can!"

Youxi also grabbed Bai Lin's other hand. She had already recognized that it was the middle-aged Bai Lin and couldn't help but worry about him.

Bai Lin met Da Wan's gaze, his brow furrowing, and said in a deep voice, "Alright! I'll go first!"

Just as a smile appeared on Dawan's face, Bai Lin drew the jade-hilted dragon sword from his waist and plunged it directly into Dawan's chest.

"Ah!" Dawan screamed and staggered back a few steps. Before he could react, Bai Lin drew his longsword and slashed it directly at Dawan's neck. The ruthlessness of the blow left his three teammates speechless.

Davan's eyes were wide open, as if he couldn't believe it at all, but his head had already separated from his neck and was on the ground.

But what's even stranger is that the robots that were just wreaking havoc, the middle-aged Bai Lin who was pleading desperately, and the wizard who was running around everywhere... all froze in place, as if the movie had been paused.

Davan's head fell to the ground, but he didn't die. Instead, he regained his calm expression and even said with interest, "I'm curious, how did you figure it out?"

Bai Lin wiped the blood-stained sword clean on Da Wan's clothes, sheathed it, and said calmly, "There are too many flaws. Do you know what the biggest flaw is?"

"Dawan" frowned and asked, "What is it?"

Bai Lin grinned and said, "It's your title, Asatal, the Warbringer! Ever since we entered this space, I've been curious why the future war is between wizards and Muggles. Where have you alien monsters gone? Your portable library contains more than ten thousand volumes. Actually, it's hidden in your title. In order to rule the Earth, you must first provoke a war between wizards and Muggles, making Earthlings fight amongst themselves so that you can reap the benefits!"

Bai Lin lifted his foot and appeared directly next to the Sentinel robot. He had clearly regained his teleportation ability, and the dream's restriction on his abilities had disappeared.

Bai Lin tapped on the Sentinel robot, and strangely enough, a hatch opened on the robot's chest, revealing a child of about ten years old, who was fast asleep with his head tilted to the side.

Bai Lin pointed at the child and said, "Asatar, you've gone through all this trouble, with the witch war and the savior, just to get me to help the wizards, haven't you? Once I defeat this robot myself or with my summoned beasts, I'll kill the Muggle child inside. That way, I'll leave a crack in my heart, allowing your mind magic to control me!"

Davan's head on the ground burst into laughter, which terrified the three cute girls.

But then everything around them seemed to melt away like ice, and soon after, their vision blurred and their feet found solid ground; they were back in the flower field behind the town church.

Asatel remained standing there. Unlike Lebahar, he didn't seize the opportunity to attack the moment Bai Lin woke up. Instead, he politely waited for everyone to come to their senses before saying, "It's such a pity. I wanted to fill the vacancy left by Lebahar as soon as possible... When the general returns, we will all become the master's close advisors..."

"Give me a break!" Bai Lin said disdainfully. "Don't try to act all high and mighty in front of me! Grakua is just a small fry! You must still be dreaming!"

Asatel was somewhat surprised, and frowned, saying, "You seem to know quite a lot. It doesn't matter; when I eat your brain, all your knowledge will become my collection..."

"Summon Thunderbirds!" Bai Lin waved his hand without hesitation, and his teammates quickly moved, spreading out in all directions to surround Asatl.

A thunderbird appeared in mid-air, accompanied by bursts of lightning. Without saying a word, it let out a cry towards the sky, and a thundercloud immediately gathered in the sky.

Kaka made the first move, drawing a strange wand only half the length of a normal wand and shouting at Asatel, "Judgment of the Holy Light!"

A golden six-pointed star appeared without warning above Asatel's head and crashed down on him as if it were a real object.

How could Asatel be unprotected? The six-pointed star struck him ten centimeters above the head, as if he had hit a marble, with golden light splashing like water droplets. Lulu was a disciple of the Judgment Master, so she naturally learned some holy light magic from him.

Although the Holy Light Judgment was blocked by Azatl's shield, it still caused him a moment of dizziness. Yuxi had already appeared to his left, and with a wave of her wand aimed at Azatl's staff, she released a beam of red magical energy. "Expelliarmus!" Yuxi shouted.

The two spells were perfectly coordinated. Asatl was caught off guard and struck by the disarming spell, but his staff remained unharmed. However, his left hand loosened, and the thick leather-bound ancient book fell to the ground with a thud.

Kiki's movements were even more agile than Bai Lin's. She had already subdued the Sphinx and, with her small, quick steps, silently approached Asatel from the right. The instant Asatel's ancient book landed, she threw out her scimitar. The scimitar drew a beautiful and swift arc, slicing directly into the back of the ancient book and sending it flying.

Asatl was stunned for less than a second before the ancient book in his hand was knocked away by the three of them in a coordinated attack. This was exactly the tactic that Bai Lin had devised in the team channel while talking to Asatl.

Asatl opened his strange compound eyes wide and reached out his hand towards the flying ancient book. The book seemed to be pulled by a rope, and it actually made a 180-degree turn in the air and flew back into Asatl's hand.

"Thunderbird! Thunderbolt!" Bai Lin gave Thunderbird's special move a catchy name on the spot. Thunderbird was quite powerful. Its eyes flashed and a bolt of lightning came down from the sky, hitting the ancient book accurately like a sniper.

Asatl was holding the ancient book in his hand when he was struck by lightning.

The lightning lasted only about 05 seconds, but the area where Asatl was located was already shrouded in a cloud of blue smoke.

Bai Lin wouldn't give Asatel any chance to breathe. He raised his hands to the sky, and instantly a ball of dark green death energy gathered in his hands. Near this small hill, at least a hundred people had been killed by Lebahar, and it was already surrounded by a strong aura of death. This aura of death greatly enhanced Bai Lin's spell. Bai Lin shouted, "Death Coil!"

The sinister skull, larger than a basketball and composed of death energy, slammed into Asatel like a comet, producing a tremendous roar—not only the boom of an explosion but also the screams of a vengeful spirit.

"Not dead yet!" Bai Lin shouted. He was panting heavily. Although his magic power was over 100, he had already unleashed too many powerful moves tonight and entered and exited the dream twice. He was quite exhausted.

Kaka raised his wand high and shouted, "Sword of Heaven! Descend!"

In that instant, Bai Lin seemed to see a phantom of wings appear on Kaka's back, extremely gorgeous. Of course, if it were Lulu, it would be even more pleasing to the eye.

Suddenly, a beam of golden light shone down from the dark sky, seemingly a divine miracle from heaven. Within the golden light was a hiltless sword, four or five meters long, which plunged straight into the location where Asatl was.

"Roar!" Asatl let out his first scream. The continuous attacks had shattered his body into pieces, leaving him unrecognizable, but he was not dead yet. He roared like a madman, "How dare you! How dare you destroy my master's sacred texts!"

Bai Lin felt a blur before his eyes. He thought Asatel was about to erupt and turn into a giant monster or something, but in fact, he actually tried to run away. In the blink of an eye, he had turned into a black lump of rotten flesh, carrying a tattered ancient book, and instantly moved to the hillside, slipping out of the four people's encirclement.

"Abolish your weapon!" Asatl flew too fast, and just as Bai Lin was at a loss for what to do, a beam of red magical energy shot out from the hillside and struck the lump of rotten flesh, sending the ancient book flying once again.

Bai Lin was overjoyed because he recognized the voice as Hagrid's, and he had finally escaped from the Shadow Dream.

Asatel may be powerful, but his power likely lies in constructing dreams, unknowingly reading parts of human memories, or some other form of mental magic. If Bai Lin hadn't seen through his scheme, the consequences would have been unimaginable. In the real world, the ancient book in his hands is the real weapon. That's why Bai Lin had the team coordinate their actions to prevent him from succeeding in making a move.
