Hogwarts Summoning Guide
Chapter 427 Encountering a Formidable Enemy Again
"Ah!..." Hermione let out a heart-wrenching scream, clutching her mouth tightly, tears streaming down her face. Harry gritted his teeth, his right hand gripping his wand tightly, hatred visibly radiating from his eyes, but he still stepped forward and supported Hermione's shoulders to prevent her from falling.
The other children also cried out in shock, for inside those large glass jars, the pale green liquid contained the bodies of dozens of house-elves, and from their seven orifices or joints, disgusting tentacles were clearly emerging, slowly wriggling in the culture medium.
It's no wonder Hermione lost her composure. She has a special sympathy for house-elves. In the original story, she even organized the "House-Elf Liberation Front" at Hogwarts. Although it was somewhat childish, it was enough to show Hermione's concern for the disadvantaged. Now, seeing that almost all the house-elves who used to work in the Hogwarts kitchens are being kept in jars like specimens or test subjects, how could she not be heartbroken?
Having witnessed Mariette's ordeal firsthand, everyone knew that being ensnared by these terrifying and disgusting tentacle tissues meant certain transformation into those crazed monsters; even these house-elves were beyond saving...
Bai Lin frowned. He was initially surprised that Umbridge would do something so strange and troublesome, because the mental magic of the Church of Hastur could easily corrupt ordinary people, and the Yellow Seal could easily convert a powerful wizard into a Hastur follower. But he quickly thought of a possibility—the special nature of house-elves.
As is well known, house-elves possess incredibly powerful magical abilities, which are innate to them. They are not distinguished as wizards or Muggles, and their learning abilities surpass those of humans. The vast majority of house-elves have mastered silent and wandless spellcasting, and possess powerful telepathic and teleportation abilities, even capable of ignoring Hogwarts' defensive magic circles.
It's fair to say that any human wizard who possesses the magical abilities of an ordinary house-elf would become a leader of their time. However, these powerful elves have been manipulated and reduced to lowly servants by human wizards for generations. Of course, that's not the key point. The current situation is likely that Umbridge discovered that neither mental magic nor the Yellow Seal could transform the house-elf, but he desperately wanted to possess the special abilities of a house-elf. So, he came up with this idea: forcibly implanting the limbs of Hastur cultists into the body of a house-elf.
"Why did they do this?!" the twins growled through gritted teeth. They had a good relationship with Dobby, and the students of Hogwarts had always enjoyed the food that these house-elves had worked so hard to prepare. Now, seeing this miserable state, who wouldn't be moved?
"Umbridge wants the ability for house-elves to break through magical seals..." Bai Lin sighed softly. Suddenly, his expression changed slightly, because the Summoning Pokédex had issued a warning. These house-elf test subjects were deeply stimulating the nerves of everyone present, causing their SAN value to be lost at an accelerated rate.
"Time is precious! Let's go find Umbridge first!" He didn't have time to explain, and with a wave of his hand, he and Yan Nishuang rushed over from the "testing area".
Before they had taken more than a few steps, they could clearly see two figures standing in the shadows between several braziers ahead. Latest update: Click to follow.
Bai Lin's heart clenched. With his perception alone, the fact that he only discovered the other party's presence after getting this close already showed that the other party was no ordinary person.
Upon closer inspection, he noticed that the two men were dressed very similarly to the black-clad guards in the castle, but they both wore strange white masks with eerie expressions outlined in red lines. If an ordinary person saw them at night, they would surely be terrified.
Bai Lin didn't have time to argue with them. Without saying a word, he casually pointed, and several blue-black interwoven magic beams shot out towards their faces. These were high-concentration ice elements mixed with disordered elemental energy, which could easily freeze any creature within a radius of tens of meters into an ice sculpture and ignore any magical defense.
But the other party gave Bai Lin a small surprise. This kind of magical light beam was extremely fast. Bai Lin had never seen any creature that could dodge it by speed. But after this burst of light, the two of them were unmoved. The light seemed to pass through their bodies as if it were passing through the air, freezing the stone pillars and ground dozens of meters behind them into an ice rink.
Harry wanted to join in, but he was a little confused by what he saw. He instinctively thought that the two people might be illusions, not real objects, like laser projections. But Bai Lin saw with his powerful dynamic vision that the two people had just dodged his magic very quickly. Because their movements were so fast, they were beyond the visual reaction of others, so it was as if they had not moved at all.
Just as Bai Lin was about to continue his attack, the two men vanished from the spot. Immediately afterward, Bai Lin felt a chill on the back of his head, and an extremely strong killing intent surged onto his skin, only to abruptly stop.
He turned around abruptly and saw that Yan Nishuang had already drawn her ancient blue sword, which blocked a long scythe that a strange man in black had extended from his robe. The sound of weapons clashing only reached Bai Lin's ears at this moment, which showed how fast the strange man and Yan Nishuang were moving.
Bai Lin gritted his teeth and moved several meters away. With a thought, he drew the Jade-Handled Dragon. Speed was not the strength of chaotic power, and he barely dodged the scythe of another black-clad monster. All the disordered elemental energy in his body had been withdrawn to the cellular level, and golden light enveloped his entire body. In addition to the sword in his hand, several weapons formed from the power of order appeared beside him.
Yan Nishuang and her opponent had exchanged more than ten blows in an instant. The speed of her opponent's movements surprised Yan Nishuang greatly. However, she had already obtained the peerless swordsmanship passed down by Qingxu Daode Zhenjun in Kunlun Xu, and no longer relied on her five senses to judge her opponent's actions. Once her Dao Heart was opened, time seemed to slow down dozens of times, and her opponent's movements did not seem so fast to her. With her extremely exquisite swordsmanship, she was already in an invincible position. However, she was still worried about the safety of Bai Lin and the children. Her moves were mainly focused on entangling, and she was ready to support Bai Lin or the others at any time.
Bai Lin found it difficult to adapt to the initial encounter with these strange people. Their speed was simply unbelievable and illogical. Although their scythes looked ordinary, they could actually clash with Yan Nishuang's Moye sword without being damaged, which was equally unbelievable and illogical.
"This is the power of house-elves and fairies!" Bai Lin was shocked.
