Chapter 386: Misty Siren
Chapter 386 The Mist Siren
The radiance emitted by the four patron saints completely surrounded the entire stadium, and at the same time blocked the dementors twenty feet above the stands.
Soon, the professors in the castle also got the news and rushed over one after another.
More and more patron saints flew to the Quidditch pitch from different places. The bright silver light penetrated the rain curtain and illuminated the entire pitch like the sun. It also dispelled the biting cold, making people feel extremely at ease. .
Even some senior students’ Patronus Charm skills began to soar, and they naturally formed their own Patronus.
At the same time, new patron saints also joined the battlefield.
The Hogwarts counterattack begins.
As various patron saints rushed into the sky...the dementors retreated, dispersed, and began to flee outside the stadium.
Hagrid was even more outrageous. He called two unicorns from the Forbidden Forest to help... although this was of little use.
Unicorns are indeed the biggest natural enemies of dementors, but dementors can fly. No matter how low their IQ is, they cannot actively float to the ground to face unicorns.
Moreover, Hagrid also wasted a lot of time in the Forbidden Forest. By the time he arrived here, the battle was basically coming to an end.
Watching the last few Dementors disappear from sight, Professor McGonagall stamped her feet anxiously on her seat.
She wanted to join the battle so much, but she had to maintain the original light screen to ensure that the students were not harmed. In the end, she could only watch helplessly as all the dementors ran away.
“What a great opportunity to deal with the Dementors in an honest and fair manner, and it’s gone just like that…”
Professor McGonagall felt extremely uncomfortable, as if she had lost a thousand Galleons... No, it should be said that it was more uncomfortable than losing a thousand Galleons.
At least you can still make another profit if the Galleons are gone, but the chance to deal with the Dementors may only be once...especially after Professor Dumbledore comes back, I'm afraid there will be no chance.
Thinking of this, Professor McGonagall glanced aside subconsciously.
If Snape could have participated just now, maybe she would be free to beat up the dementors.
A professor actually asked students to take over his responsibilities... Tsk!
Facing Professor McGonagall's eyes, Snape turned his head to the side, pretending he didn't see it.
It doesn’t matter whose patron saint you are, as long as the matter is resolved.
But Professor McGonagall didn't waste much time on this kind of thing, and quickly withdrew her gaze... She had more important things to do.
Dementors ran into the school. This is absolutely not allowed. The Ministry of Magic must give an explanation...
She put her wand to her throat and shouted, "Everyone, be quiet!"
For a time, her voice echoed throughout the stadium.
“The competition is suspended, and the prefects immediately bring people from each college back to the castle…”
“The President of the Student Union is responsible for vigilance. Once the Dementor is discovered again, he will immediately send a red explosion signal into the sky..."
“No one can stay outside under any excuse!”
There were no complaints in the huge stands, and even the players from both sides of the game did not object to the decision to suspend the game.
Under the arrangement of Professor McGonagall, the students quickly left the stadium and walked towards the castle.
Of course, it was impossible for Malfoy to take Harry away. Kyle could only conjure up a stretcher, put Harry on it, and was carried into the castle by several Hufflepuffs who volunteered.
As soon as they reached the entrance hall, the Gryffindors rushed over, including Ron and Hermione, all wet as if they had just climbed out of a swimming pool.
“Oh, Harry, thank God…”
Ron said excitedly, "We saw him and Malfoy fall into the stands together, but there were too many people around and they couldn't squeeze through."
“Don’t worry, he’s fine.”
Kyle said, "It should be similar to the situation on the train. You just need to find a classroom with a window and stick Harry's head outside. He will probably wake up soon." "Well, forget it." Ron laughed dryly, "I think Madam Pomfrey should have a way to wake him up."
On the train, there was no choice but to splash water on Harry to wake him up, but at school, it would definitely be better to send him to the school hospital.
"It's up to you." Kyle said, "Remember to prepare some chocolate and eat some when he wakes up. It will be good."
Hermione and Ron nodded and took Harry to the school hospital. Wood and the Gryffindor team members also went together, except for Fred and George.
They came to Kyle's side, and his face looked extremely pale under the mud.
"It's so scary..." Fred shivered with lingering fear, "I just felt a chill, and when I turned around, I saw that the Dementor was less than five feet away from me."
“It’s as if all the happiness has been sucked away.”
George took a few deep breaths, "It turns out that this was how it felt to face the dementors without the Patronus Charm... I have to say that it was too bad."
“But speaking of this.” Fred suddenly asked: “Kyle, who was your patronus just now?”
"Why do you ask?" Kyle said without changing his expression: "Maybe I can't summon the patron saint."
“That’s a really funny joke.” Fred laughed appreciatively.
“If it had been ten minutes ago, maybe we would have believed it.”
George stepped forward and patted Kyle on the shoulder, "Don't forget that we are not the only ones on the Quidditch pitch. Many people saw you summoning the Patronus. On the way back to the castle, we heard at least two groups of people. Discussing this."
“Now that you all know, why are you still asking me?” Kyle said.
"Because the version we hear is different every time." Fred looked a little strange, "It's all about it, as if you summoned those patron saints."
“Luna also said that your patronus is the Mist Siren.”
"So, what is the Mist Siren..." Kyle wondered.
“According to Luna, it is a magical animal that lives in the North Sea.” George thought for a while, “It has no fixed form and everyone sees it differently. It sounds a bit like a Boggart.”
“Do you believe it?” Kyle looked at them.
"Hmm..." Fred touched his chin and muttered seriously: "It's not impossible."
Kyle wanted to say something more, but there was a sudden commotion from the crowd around him.
Professor McGonagall is here, and she is accompanied by several senior students, who seem to be prefects of each college.
"Professor McGonagall!" Fred asked quickly: "Have all the dementors been driven away? When can we continue to play the next Quidditch match?"
“We are thirty points ahead of Slytherin.” George said.
"I'm afraid we can't do it today." Professor McGonagall looked quite regretful, but she didn't explain anything. She just asked them to go back to the common room and drink a cup of hot chocolate.
Then she stopped Kyle who was about to leave.
“You come with me.”
Although Kyle didn’t know what happened, he still nodded and followed.
On the way, Professor McGonagall asked: "I heard Digory say that you summoned the jellyfish patron saint?"
“Yes,” Kyle said. “What happened again?”
"No," said Professor McGonagall, "but the Patronus Charm is a very profound spell that consumes a lot of energy, and you have to fight so many Dementors at once. I think it's better to let Madam Pomfrey check it out. Better."
