Professor Vampire.

Chapter 284: Weird John and temporary security guard Selina

In the secret realm on the top of Mount Olympus, countless silver bats gathered into a wave, standing in front of the surging black fog.

The silver giant also emitted bursts of light, blocking the black fog from eroding and engulfing the building.

However, the black fog seemed endless and was still expanding. The dissipation of the silver light was like a drop in the bucket, which could only slow down its rising speed, but could not completely suppress it.

"This is not a solution." Dracula frowned and said.

"I know it's not a solution..." Andros said, gritting his teeth, "but I have been deprived of half of my control over the secret realm, and now I can't even find where Herbo is."

"It's not hard to find, after all, this place is so small." Dracula's eyes moved slightly, looking into the depths of the black fog, "Herbo must be in it, just go in and take a look and you'll know."

"Wait..." Andros grabbed Dracula's arm, "You don't want to enter this black fog, do you?"

He persuaded: "The dark power here is too strong. I felt it was unbearable when I touched it a little bit before, let alone taking the initiative to go deep!"

Dracula was silent for a while, then turned his head and looked at Andros with an idiotic look.

"What's wrong? Did I say something wrong?" Andros asked inexplicably, "I know you are very strong, but the power that Helpo suddenly burst out is also something I have never seen before. I suggest you don't take the risk!"

"...Have you ever thought that you can't bear the black fog because of your physical condition?" Dracula said faintly.

"There is no need to poke my wounds, right?" Andros looked very hurt, "I know that people like me who live with the patronus as their bodies are relatively humble, but I can't help it..."

"No, you misunderstood." Dracula's mouth twitched, and he interrupted him, "I mean, have you ever thought...I am here to fight this black fog completely for you, if I am alone, I don't have to care about it at all."

Andros shook his head blankly.

However, the next moment, he realized what Dracula meant.

Dracula suddenly retracted his wand, and his temperament suddenly changed.

The sacred aura stained by the Patronus spell disappeared, and his black and red robe fluttered without wind, and the endless dark aura surged up, and it seemed that the momentum was not inferior to the endless black fog below.

Andros: "..."

He silently moved a few steps to the side, avoiding the darkness on Dracula's body that was so thick that he couldn't look directly at it, to prevent his Patronus body from being affected.

"Why didn't you tell me in advance? You can transform as soon as you say so?" Andros looked at Dracula with disdain, "I've seen you use the Patronus state for so long that I almost forgot that you are the darkest guy."

"I'll go find Herpo, you hold on for a while." Dracula curled his lips and said casually, "If you feel you can't do it, just shout, I should be able to hear you."

"Okay, I'm not that weak yet." Andros waved his hand, "You go quickly and come back quickly, I'll hold on here first."

Dracula nodded lightly, jumped down from the chest of the silver giant, and sank into the black mist.

...

"It must be very close, the Goblet of Fire should be not far away..."

In the arena of the semi-finals, Harry held up his wand and used the directional spell to determine his direction.

The wand told him that the direction he was in was completely correct. As long as he didn't encounter any dangerous obstacles, he might have a chance to get the trophy of the semi-finals and become the final winner...

Thinking of this, Harry ran.

He ran along this road, and soon he saw a light in front of him.

The semi-finals cup stood quietly on the exquisite pedestal in the open space a hundred meters away, flashing an attractive light.

Just when Harry thought he was about to win the final victory, suddenly, a black shadow rushed to the road in front of him from the side fork.

It was Cedric, he got there first!

He was sprinting towards the trophy at full speed. Harry estimated the distance between himself and Cedric, and looked at Cedric's long legs, knowing that he could never catch up.

Cedric was much taller than him, had longer legs than him, and was better developed, and his physical fitness was probably better than his.

Harry slowed down panting and felt that he had no chance.

This seems to be a good idea, the champion still belongs to Hogwarts.

Just as Cedric was about to reach the open space where the semi-final cup was, Harry's eyes suddenly changed.

He saw a huge black shadow outside the hedge on the left, moving quickly towards this side on the intersecting road, and Cedric was about to hit it... But Cedric was only staring at the trophy and didn't see it at all-

"Cedric!" Harry shouted, "Watch out to the left!"

Cedric turned his head suddenly and saw something next to him.

He was startled and quickly dodged to the side to avoid colliding with that thing.

But Cedric was running too fast before, and the sudden change of center of gravity made him fall heavily to the ground.

Harry was horrified to see that a huge spider crawled over and leaned over to press Cedric.

"Stupefy!" Harry raised his wand and shouted loudly.

The spell hit the spider's huge, black, hairy body, but it was no more than a stone thrown at it. The spider merely twitched, seemingly unaffected.

But at least it had some effect, because the spider's attention shifted, its eyes moving away from Cedric, and it turned quickly and rushed towards Harry.

"Stupefy! Impedimenta! Flipendo!"

Harry panicked and used three different spells in succession, bombarding the spider in succession.

But it didn't work at all - perhaps the spider was too big, or its magic was too much stronger than Harry's, the spells had no effect on it, but instead angered it even more.

Harry saw in horror the eight gleaming black eyes and sharp pincers, and the spider had already pounced on him.

The spider lifted Harry into the air with its two front pincers, and Harry struggled desperately, trying to kick it with his feet.

His leg touched the spider's claws, but the spider did not react. Instead, Harry immediately felt a sharp pain.

He heard Cedric also using a Stunning Spell to attack the spider, but his spell did not work either - the spider opened its claws again, and Harry raised his wand and shouted:

"Expelliarmus!"

This spell, which Harry was best at, was still effective.

The Disarming Spell made the spider's front claws release him, but this meant that Harry would fall from a height of three meters.

Harry's legs could not withstand the weight of his body, and he felt a pain and collapsed to the ground.

But now he had no time to care about this pain. Without thinking, he pointed his wand at the spider's lower abdomen and used the Stunning Spell again.

At the same time, Cedric also shouted the same spell.

The two spells combined seemed to have an effect that the first spell could not: the spider fell to the side, crushing a hedge, and its hairy long legs were spread out on the ground.

"Harry, are you okay?!" Harry heard Cedric shout, "Didn't it fall on you?"

"No." Harry shouted breathlessly.

He looked down at his legs, which were bleeding. There was some sticky stuff on the torn robe, which was secreted from the spider's claws. It was unknown whether it was poisonous.

Harry tried to stand up, but his legs were shaking so much that he couldn't support the weight of his body, so he leaned against the hedge, gasping for breath, and looked around.

"We should be safe now, right?" Harry closed his eyes and asked weakly.

However, he suddenly heard Cedric's unbelievable voice-

"Kowalski? Have you been here for a long time? Why didn't I see you pick up the trophy?"

Harry opened his eyes and looked at the open space where the semi-final cup was.

At this time, John Kowalski stood in the place where the light was shining, looking at Cedric steadily.

"John Kowalski?" Harry was stunned.

He saw that John's expression was very wooden, and his mustache-wearing face was no longer funny, but rather scary.

Harry felt something was wrong.

This expression seemed very similar to when Krum tortured Cedric with the Cruciatus Curse before...

"Expelliarmus."

As if to verify Harry's guess, the next moment, John suddenly raised his wand without Cedric noticing.

Cedric's wand flew out, was caught by John, and then thrown far away.

"Kowalski, what are you doing?!" Cedric looked at this scene in shock, and asked angrily, "If you want to take the trophy, you can just take it directly, there's no need to do it with me, right?"

John still didn't speak, but raised his wand again.

Harry didn't care about his leg injury at this time. He stood up with the help of the hedge, pointed his wand at John and shouted:

"Petrificus Totalus!"

John glanced at Harry and used another spell to block Harry's full body petrification spell -

"Protego."

Harry knew that he was no match for John alone, so he turned to look at Cedric.

"Cedric, go get your wand back!" He shouted, "This person is definitely not John, or he is controlled by someone else... We can't just sit there and wait for death!"

Seeing this, Cedric also recognized the current situation in a short time, knowing that the purpose of this "John" was no longer to get the trophy of the semi-finals, but more likely to hurt them like Krum!

However, no matter how well Cedric performed in class, he did not master the advanced spellcasting ability such as wandless casting.

So he looked at Harry again and winked at him.

Harry nodded knowingly and pointed his wand at the wand that John had just thrown aside.

"Accio Cedrid!"

The extensive practice of the Accio Spell before the first project was not in vain. After the Accio Spell was cast, Cedric's ash wand immediately flew up and flew towards Harry.

Harry opened his hand, wanting to catch the wand and throw it back to Cedric.

However, at this moment, another huge figure suddenly appeared, blocking Cedric's wand and Harry.

Harry widened his eyes and saw another huge spider crawling over from the fork in the hedge on the right.

As for John in the open space, he took his index finger and thumb away from his mouth - he just whistled, and it seemed that this whistle made the spider hear his command.

"Oh no, he can also control magical animals!" Harry's face turned a little pale.

Cedric was the same. He watched helplessly as the huge spider crawled towards him step by step, but he could not think of any way to resist.

At the same time, John raised his wand again...

Suddenly, a light flashed!

A short red cloak fell from the sky and blocked the spider!

Harry widened his eyes and saw a thin, even boneless hand firmly grasping the spider's front claws.

The next moment, the hand flipped and easily flipped the spider, which was taller than a floor, to the ground, as if it was flipping a small beetle.

It was not until then that Cedric and Harry had time to look at the figure that fell from the sky -

This looked like a petite girl who looked very heroic.

Her hair was half black and half white, she had a pair of red eyes, and she wore a short cloak and a long dress that was black on the outside and red on the inside.

The person who came was Selina who arrived in time. She thought she only needed to slack off here, and other professors would solve the safety problems of the contestants.

However, when no one cast red sparks, she was the only one who could hear the movement in the center of the maze.

Selina clapped her hands and spread her hands in front of her chest.

A group of bats with white flames on their bodies flew out and landed on the big spider.

In a blink of an eye, the huge body of the spider was burned to ashes.

"Huh - I'm awesome. I learned his secret in less than two years!" Looking at the spider's disappearing body, Selina laughed and boasted happily.

"Uh... that, this lady," Harry suddenly reminded, "there is still one person's problem that has not been solved. By the way, please don't treat John the same way you treat spiders..."

Harry thought for a long time and couldn't figure out which professor this was. Wasn't the security guard Professor Dracula? Why did such a young girl come here?

At the same time as Harry reminded, John also raised his wand indifferently.

"Stupefy."

A red beam of light shot out and hit Serena's back heavily.

"Be careful!" Harry shouted in shock.

But he closed his mouth the next moment.

Serena was hit by a coma spell, but she turned around and looked at John angrily as if nothing had happened.

"You little wizard are not very cute!"

Harry and Cedric watched her, and she flashed in front of John, and then slapped John on the forehead.

John fainted.

"Huh, this is solved." Serena clapped her hands.

Harry secretly swallowed his saliva.

"Well, he is not dead?" He asked in a low voice.

"Of course, do I look like such a violent person?" Serena bared her sharp teeth and asked viciously.

Harry and Cedric silently looked at the spider, which was completely destroyed, and shook their heads at the same time.
