Chapter 85 Can you be a human being? Brother Cerberus, you smell so good!
Thinking of the description of the three-headed dog of hell in the legend, Charles also became excited.
That is a monster that can give headaches to heroes and demigods in mythology, so it is naturally very powerful.
But what Charles values most is its resistance to the death curse.
After all, the Killing Curse is really too perverted in this era. Even if the real strength is several levels lower, once the Killing Curse comes, if you are hit, you will be killed instantly.
The key point is that according to the original book, this thing cannot be resisted by any protective magic and ignores all defenses.
As long as the person who releases the curse meets the conditions and can unleash the power of the killing curse, the person will surely die.
Without resistance to the Killing Curse, you really have to be careful at all times. If you are not careful, you may end up in trouble.
But if the idea of transforming the Animagus into the three-headed dog of hell through magic could really be realized, the threat of the Killing Curse and similar death curses to the Charles might be greatly reduced.
Therefore, even if it is just a possibility, Charles still attaches great importance to the three-headed dog.
The second position of the magic Animagus transfiguration was reserved for the three-headed dog.
At this moment, Ciel walked out of the dormitory, left the Hufflepuff common room, and came to the nearest staircase.
Then Charles paused.
Cedric's previous explanation did include the routes to several classrooms.
But the three-headed dog was at the end of the corridor on the fourth floor, which was the forbidden area mentioned by Dumbledore, so Cedric didn't mention it at all.
Even if Ciel had an excellent memory and knew all the routes clearly, he couldn't come up with a route he had never heard of.
As for using Deep Blue for deduction?
It's such a small matter to use dark blue, it's not a waste.
After hesitating for a moment, Charles made a decision.
"Since entering Hogwarts, whether it is Dumbledore, other professors or senior students, they all say that Hogwarts is a living castle."
"It's as if these stairs can understand human language. Each staircase even has its own personality."
"In that case, let's see if my unique skill of asking for directions can work."
The next moment, Charles pulled out his wand and tapped the stair railing in front of him, saying softly.
"Hey, hey, can you hear me?"
"You and your friends on the stairs have three minutes to line up and walk me all the way to the fourth floor corridor."
"Otherwise, I'll eat you."
As soon as these words were spoken, the staircase, which was originally moving at a specific rhythm, suddenly stopped, as if it heard something that made it confused.
During the thousands of years at Hogwarts, it had heard and seen countless secrets.
It has seen young lovers unable to control their emotions and kissing passionately on this staircase at night.
It has seen ambitious people walk up this staircase and tiptoe towards the restricted books area.
It had even seen two male professors at Hogwarts, following British tradition, perform an obscene scene on this staircase.
But it dared to swear that this was the first time it heard a newly enrolled wizard threaten to eat it!
In an instant, the speed of this section of stairs increased exponentially, like a whistling windmill. It was obviously very angry and didn't want Charles to climb it again.
In response, Charles sighed.
"It seems you didn't listen to what I said."
"Why, did the hard tiles give you a false sense of security?"
"Then you are wrong. The countless bricks in Diagon Alley and the bricks in Platform Nine and Three Quarters are not necessarily more fragile than you."
Then, Charles jumped nimbly, stood steadily on the fast-moving stairs, and rushed up the stairs fiercely.
"Deduction points +20..."
A deep blue reminder sounded immediately.
At the same time, the stairs suddenly stiffened.
It didn't expect that this little wizard was serious.
No, Hufflepuffs are greedy, but they can’t be this greedy, right?
Are you tired of stairs?!
Can you just be a human being?
What's even more outrageous is that with Charles's sucking just now, some of the magic power was really sucked away by Charles.
If all the magic power was taken away by Charles, the magic of this section of stairs would no longer exist and it would just become an ordinary section of stairs.
Thinking of this, the stairs couldn't help but tremble, and the steps rose and fell as if they were feeling fear.
Ciel grinned.
"Now you know you're afraid?"
"Be good, then tell your friends to send me up quickly."
"Also tell the stairs at Hogwarts to keep their eyes open and be discerning when they see me next time. I don't want to waste time rushing up the stairs."
The stairs shook twice, as if to indicate that they understood.
Immediately, it began to rotate slowly, sending Charles to a higher place.
Even the steps began to rise and fall automatically, slowly bringing Charles to the end of the stairs. And here, a new staircase just happened to come over and took Charles up.
Just like that, without even moving a step, or trying to find the way, Charles was taken to the corridor on the fourth floor by the magic stairs.
Charles then nodded in satisfaction.
He waved his wand, cast an Disillusionment Charm, and disappeared into the air, walking towards the end of the corridor on the fourth floor.
After Charles left, the stairs that had brought him here seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.
We have seen everything in thousands of years, but this little monster that eats stairs is the first time we have seen it. It's bad luck for them.
Then, the stairs led one by one to a place where the class schedule was posted.
There was nothing else they had to do - memorize the first-year Hufflepuff timetable.
This way, the next time Charles goes out, they will know which classroom to send him to!
……
Let us not mention the pathetic and humble appearance of the stairs.
At this time, at the end of the corridor on the fourth floor, two figures escaped in shock.
Judging from their fiery red hair color and almost identical appearance, they are naturally the Weasley twins in the original book.
Given their mischievous nature, after hearing Dumbledore say today that if they didn't want to die miserably, they should stay away from here, they naturally couldn't hold back and came here for a night stroll on the first night of school.
"We have calculated that the headmaster and professors are very tired on the first day and will not be patrolling here. The one patrolling tonight is our old acquaintance Filch. We are really good at getting rid of him."
"I thought there was some treasure inside this trapdoor, but it turned out to be such a huge three-headed dog?"
"I was so scared. Luckily we ran away quickly, otherwise we would have become dog food!"
The Weasley twins were still frightened, but at the same time they couldn't help but be excited by the thrilling adventure they had just had.
At the same time, they were also curious why the three-headed dog was imprisoned here?
"From the looks of it, the three-headed dog looks like a guard?"
"It must be something extraordinary that can be guarded by a three-headed dog!"
The Weasley twins looked at each other and decided to see what was inside to satisfy their curiosity.
But at this point, let's go back to sleep.
Then, the two took out the Marauder's Map and after solemnly swearing that they would do no good, dense ink dots spread out on it, covering the movements of everyone in Hogwarts.
The two had intended to avoid Filch in this way, but at this moment, Fred, one of the twins, let out a low cry and suddenly looked towards the end of the corridor shown on the map.
There, a name emerged - Charles Evans.
The expressions of the two changed.
"Oops!"
"It's the little first-year wizard from Hufflepuff. He's here for a night out!"
No matter how much they liked playing pranks, they could clearly understand how dangerous it would be for a first-year wizard to encounter a three-headed dog.
The two of them didn't care about anything else, took out their wands, turned around and rushed to the end of the corridor again.
"Quick, go save people!"
At this time, Charles had already pushed open the trapdoor at the end of the corridor and stepped into it.
What came towards me was a gust of hot and smelly wind.
A three-headed dog that occupied all the space from the ceiling to the floor stared at Charles ferociously.
tick, tick...
The sound of saliva dripping was heard.
The three-headed dog was stunned for a moment.
The two little wizards just ran away, so I couldn’t eat them, so I swallowed all the saliva I secreted.
Where does this dripping sound come from?
Then he saw Charles wipe his mouth shyly.
"Sorry, I saw something delicious and couldn't help myself, so I lost my composure."
Charles stared at the huge body of the three-headed dog with a burning face and said intoxicatedly.
"Brother Three-Headed Dog, you smell so good!"
"Let me smell it. Let me get closer and smell it."
The three heads of the three-headed dog looked at each other in bewilderment, and their already low IQ became even more confused.
???
What's the situation?
Met a psychopath?
