Chapter 410 408 Black Mist Surges
Chapter 410 408. Black mist surges
The moment the black fog spread, Jon felt a strong sense of crisis.
He did not hesitate to release the spell in the ring to wrap his body, and at the same time he also used the floating spell, and the whole person flew off the ground!
Black fog enveloped the entire library in an instant. At the same time, Brandon stretched out his wand and pointed it at Jon's location.
The black mist seemed to be completely under his control, and it immediately surged towards Jon, who was already floating in the air!
Jon didn't dare to rely on the spell on his body to stop directly. The black mist gave him an extremely bad premonition. Even the ring magic that he had maintained on his body had no way to resist. He could only He tried his best to dodge and move in mid-air, avoiding the pursuit of the black mist.
"I have never underestimated you, Jon Green. Being able to kill Bella and the others, no matter what method you used, is enough to prove your strength." Brandon's voice sounded loudly in the library, "Master has helped me make perfect preparations. Even if you can fight, how can you resist Master's power? You will die here today!"
While he was speaking, the tip of the wand also lit up with a miserable green light, and the death curse suddenly shot out from it in the next second!
Although Jon's attention was always on the black mist, he did not completely ignore Brandon's movements. The moment he saw the green light, he suddenly moved his body to the left, avoiding the attack. .
That is to say, now his physical fitness and reaction can keep up. Otherwise, even if the situation just now could not kill him, he would have to be pushed into a state of embarrassment.
On the ground, the Sphinx, which had been hiding in the foyer of the library, keenly sensed something was wrong the moment the black mist spread. It ran and wanted to rush out of the library, but before it could hit the door, it hit the door. Open it, and the black mist has already wrapped around it.
The next moment, the Sphinx let out a miserable wail, and then, when the black mist receded from it, it made no sound anymore, leaving only a frightened and gray face.
Of course, Jon also noticed the changes in the Sphinx. These black mist were actually not unfamiliar to him. This was the standard product of Voldemort.
But what Brandon released at this moment gave him an obviously different feeling, and the root cause of this was most likely the black gemstone ring.
Although Jon is not sure yet, this black ring can only remind him of one thing in the original book, the Three Hallows of Death and one of Voldemort's Horcruxes - the Resurrection Stone Ring!
Among the three holy weapons, the Elder Wand has the most direct effect, which can enhance all the magic of the user. The effect of the Invisibility Cloak is also the most transparent. It is a cloak whose invisibility effect never fades. Only the Resurrection Stone is not described in the original work. Not much, and the specific effect is relatively vague. Anyway, it is definitely not as simple as being able to directly resurrect a person completely.
And just when Jon was thinking about whether to escape from the library first or enter the room blocked by the Sphinx behind him, the Sphinx, who had lost all his life and was lying on the ground, suddenly Stand up again!
It was just "resurrected" that it looked unconscious, more like a soulless walking zombie, and at the same time it was also looking at Jon in mid-air with a hateful expression.
Inferi!
Jon naturally recognized the current state of the Sphinx. His heart sank slightly, and he became even more wary of the diffuse black mist below. Then he considered whether the door behind him might hide the Triwizard Cup. It must be so easy to open, so he decisively used a spell to blow open a window in the library!
Lestrange obviously noticed Jon's movements, and they raised their wands together to try to hinder Jon's movements, so as to delay time and give Black Mist a chance to catch him.
However, Jon's movements were obviously much faster than they expected.
When he broke the window, he feinted and pretended to retreat into the wooden door at the end of the forbidden book area. In fact, he secretly approached the window closest to him and silently cast a blasting spell to blow it up. , rushed out immediately.
The Lestrange and his son's blocking plan was obviously too late. Before their spell could be fired from the wand, Jon had already rushed out of the library, and the black mist seemed to have its own consciousness. Normally, he didn't need anyone else to control him at all and flew out of the library right after him!
The Hogwarts Library is located on the second floor of the castle.
In fact, it is very simple for Jon to solve the trouble at hand now. As long as he can bring this black mist to open the door of the castle and let everyone outside see the existence of the black mist, then at least those from Rozier and the Federation will be able to solve the problem. The referees will not remain indifferent and this is his chance.
But obviously, the black mist didn't want to give Jon this chance. While rushing out of the library, Jon could clearly see that part of the black mist penetrated the floor and blocked the stairs to the first floor in advance, just to prevent Jon wanted to escape from the first floor.
But Jon was certainly not blind. After knowing that walking from the first floor was no longer feasible, he immediately began to fly towards the upper floors of the castle along the stairs.
Since the gate is impassable, the worst case scenario is not to go through the gate. If you can find a tower, entangled with the black mist on it will have the same effect!
Jon's flying speed was obviously not as fast as this black mist. He could only take advantage of the complex terrain in the castle and kept pulling, so he flew from the second floor to the fifth floor.
"Where is the nearest tower?"
He was asking the Sorting Hat.
Although he had been in this castle for more than half a year, he was not as familiar with it as the Sorting Hat.
"You have to go to the eighth floor first. The tower closest to the staircase you are on is the former Gryffindor lounge. You can reach it through a long staircase over there after you reach the eighth floor."
The next second after Jon heard this answer, he seemed to have a premonition in his heart, and his body suddenly rushed forward!
At the moment he fell, the black fog filled over his head. If he had reacted for half a second, he would have been completely sucked into it.
Jon, who dodged this, didn't even have time to be thankful. He turned around and left from the staircase without saying a word!
It was definitely impossible to go forward. The black fog had surpassed him and flew ahead. He could only temporarily change his route.
"Where is the staircase ahead!"
"Run seven classrooms forward, and there is another staircase. The tower closest to this staircase is also Gryffindor Tower."
As if it could sense that Jon was in a dangerous situation, the voice of the Sorting Hat began to become more urgent.
Jon was indeed under a lot of pressure now. He didn't dare to let the black mist touch him, and he had no way to deal with it for the time being. Fortunately, the speed of the Lestrange father and son was not so fast, and there was no way to help the black mist to assist.
As for the Triwizard Cup that might be hidden in the library, Jon could only hope that there was more than one sphinx blocking the road to the Triwizard Cup.
This time, Jon's action to rush to the eighth floor was much smoother than before.
It seemed that because a lot of bodies were separated to prevent blocking Jon's other possible escape routes, the speed of the black mist was obviously slowed down a lot, allowing Jon to successfully run to the eighth floor and find the staircase leading to the Gryffindor lounge tower.
"I remember that towers like Gryffindor's common room seemed to be sealed?"
"It used to be Gryffindor's common room, but after the Dark Lord ruled Hogwarts Castle, it was abandoned and turned into a utility room, and the protective magic inside was weakened. You can go directly to the girls' dormitory after reaching the common room. There is a large colored glass there. Break the glass and you can see your situation outside the castle!"
Jon can only give full trust to the Sorting Hat now. After all, he has no other options to make a decision.
But on the way to the Gryffindor common room, Jon still felt something was wrong.
The black fog chasing behind him was much thinner than when he was in the library just now, and therefore the speed was slowed down. Now it seemed that it could only hang behind him so that he would not lose it.
A hidden worry rose in Jon's heart, but he really had no other choice, not to mention that he had already flown up the stairs that could only lead to the Gryffindor Tower, and even if he wanted to turn back, it was impossible.
Soon Jon saw the entrance to the Gryffindor common room.
In the original book, there should be a portrait called the Fat Lady guarding this place, and only after the password is given will a passage for people to crawl in be opened. But now, before he even got close to the entrance, he saw a huge hole in the wall, and from the outside he could see that it was filled with all kinds of miscellaneous items.
Jon flew into the Gryffindor common room, which had indeed become a utility room, with messy desks and chairs, all kinds of magic joke toys that were collected, and a series of things such as old armor, flying brooms, and cauldrons being thrown away.
Without paying too much attention to the situation in the common room, under the guidance of the Sorting Hat, Jon quickly found the stairs that led to the girls' dormitory before.
He rushed up the stairs and came to the corridor of the dormitory, and also saw the huge stained glass that the Sorting Hat told him. According to the direction of the glass, this position should be facing the direction of the audience seats of the Quidditch stadium.
As long as he can break the glass, he will definitely be able to alarm those people on the stadium! He can also guarantee that he can escape from the castle!
However, just as Jon had raised his wand towards the stained glass, a cloud of black fog suddenly rose silently from under the glass, completely covering the entire glass behind it!
It had discovered Jon's intention early on and had made preparations in advance!
At this time, Jon's front and back were completely blocked by the black fog that was divided into two ends. The doors of the surrounding dormitories were closed. Even if he could open them with the unlocking spell, this time was enough for the black fog to swallow him.
Jon was trapped in a dead end.
The corridor was narrow and he had no room to escape.
And just as the black fog that surrounded him was slowly gathering, Jon suddenly looked at the front of him with a calm face.
"Voldemort."
The moment he said this name, the surrounding black fog suddenly stopped.
"I know it's you. No matter how powerful a normal magic is, it's impossible for him to think about such a place, let alone be so familiar with Hogwarts Castle."
Jon's voice echoed in the corridor, and after his voice fell, the black fog that had been still surged, and soon, a young and handsome upper body made of black fog appeared in front of Jon.
"You are really smart, Jon, really smart."
Voldemort's voice was a little dull, as if it was covered by fog.
"It would be great if you were not a mudblood, but a pureblood or even a half-blood."
He sighed, but his cold eyes never left Jon.
Jon was not fooled by his words, he just said softly.
"Of course, birth can determine everything in your case, but in our opinion, bloodline is nonsense. The most important thing is people's thoughts and talents, right?"
"Of course, you are right. It is a truth that everyone agrees with." Voldemort wandered in the black fog, staring at Jon, "But why do so many people believe in the bloodline theory I proposed from the bottom of their hearts? It's the benefit! My theory can bring them enough benefits! With these, what does it matter whether it is right or wrong?"
Jon appeared calm on the surface, but in fact his body was always tense. At the same time, the hand hidden in his sleeve was moving closer to his inner pocket little by little according to what the Sorting Hat said in his mind.
As if he saw that Voldemort didn't have much mood to talk about these things with him, Jon directly threw out another topic that would inevitably attract his attention.
"You are not the real Voldemort, right? You are just one of his split souls."
Sure enough, Voldemort, who was approaching Jon, stopped his movements again. He seemed puzzled that Jon could know so much.
"Did that old man Dumbledore tell you?"
Jon took a deep breath.
"I know a lot about you, Voldemort, or Mr. Tom Riddle."
However, just when Jon thought he could drag on, the black fog around Voldemort suddenly boiled up, and his sarcastic laughter echoed throughout the corridor!
"You still want to play these tricks in front of me! Who do you think I am!"
The black fog almost submerged Jon in the blink of an eye, but at the same moment, Jon's hand had already reached into the Sorting Hat!
In this corridor completely shrouded in darkness, Jon pulled out a sword that flashed with a sharp edge.
The sword light pierced the black fog!
