In This Hogwarts Without a Savior Chapter 295

  Chapter 295 293. The book hidden in the ice

   The curse that represented dead silence exploded on Nick's terrified face, but Nick was still Nick, and he didn't even change the expression on his face.

  Jon was even ready to die when he realized that he could not avoid the killing curse, but the spell unexpectedly fell on the petrified Nick!

   Sure enough, good people get rewarded!

  He rejoiced in his heart that he rejected Gabriel's intention to scribble on Nick's face just now, and changed him to the position in front of him in order to protect him, while turning around and fighting back without saying a word!

   "Thunderbolt Explosion!"

He didn't respond with the same killing curse, not because Jon was soft-hearted, but because he clearly understood that in the case of three opponents, even if his killing curse could accurately kill one of them, it would be defeated by the other two. Find a gap and do the same backfire.

  So the large-scale casting of the blasting curse is undoubtedly the best choice.

   "Boom!"

  The Death Eaters who had seen one of the Killing Curses hit Jon were almost unprepared for him not only not dead but also able to fight back.

  The magic power has affected the reality, and the strong explosion effect caused by it instantly exploded the Iron Armor Curse on the three of them.

   Following Grindelwald to learn and deepen the black magic for two months, the power of black magic that Jon uses now can be said to be different from what it used to be.

Before that, after his blasting spell shattered the Iron Armor Curse of the Death Eaters at most, it no longer had any offensive power, but now, it directly blasted the three Death Eaters out without losing power. !

Jon wasn't confused by the temporary results he had created right now. After blowing up the three Death Eaters, he just casually made up another shot of Shenfeng Wuying, and then took Gabrielle, and at the same time used The old Nick switched back to the shield behind him and began to flee the area quickly.

Just now, the three Death Eaters obviously used the Disillusionment Curse to crouch here. Jon is not clear for the time being by what means they learned of his forward route, and it is not clear that other than these three Death Eaters Besides, do they have any more helpers rushing over.

The inside of the maze is no different than the outside. The space here is small. As long as more than five people surround Jon, he will basically be unable to escape all the spells shot at him. One shot hit him is the best proof.

  The limited space made it impossible for Jon to make better use of his speed and flying advantages, so he could only retreat as soon as possible, and wait until he got rid of these three people to see the specific situation.

Jon evacuated in a timely manner. The small space limited his ability and maximized the benefits of his blasting spell. The three Death Eaters were all disgraced by the bombing, and the one who was facing Jon was even killed. Two fingers were blown off!

  After they dodged in embarrassment, the sharp edge that Jon later used to cover disappeared, and Jon was no longer in front of them.

  The Death Eater whose fingers were blown off was obviously the captain of the three-person team. He had a distorted expression caused by pain on his face, and picked up the two blown off fingers from the ground trembling.

   "How long has it been since the letter was sent to Lord Lestrange?"

  His face was full of ferocity, the wand was pinned to his waist, and the two subordinates hurriedly took out the potion and poured it on his severed finger that was still bleeding and trembling violently, and replied.

"It's only been less than half an hour, Captain, the letter we sent when the arrangement we left on that road was triggered, according to the scope of this maze, if Lord Lestrange is far away from us, then they It will take at least three days to receive the letter and rush over.”

   "Three days? Three days is enough for them to collect the corpses for us!"

  The captain with the severed finger didn't know whether he was venting the pain from his hand, or he was simply expressing his dissatisfaction, cursing.

"This **** maze! Why can't you Apparate? Even if everyone is equipped with a magic broom, it is impossible to provide immediate support in such a short time! Where is the paper plane you used to seek nearby support? Have you released it? Tell others Those idiots we found him in this position! Let those idiots start to surround this place immediately!"

   When asked by him, another Death Eater said in a panic.

   "As soon as you told me, I released the paper airplane, Captain, but the team closest to us seems a little far away"

Before he finished speaking, a sound of footsteps came from behind them from far and near. The three Death Eaters immediately maintained the highest vigilance, even the man with the severed finger The captain also endured the severe pain and gripped the wand tightly with his left hand.

   Soon, an erratic paper airplane appeared in their field of vision.

  After looking at the paper airplane, all three Death Eaters breathed a sigh of relief, and then everyone looked with ugly faces and followed the paper airplane to find the other three Death Eaters they just felt.

   "Where are people!"

   "Already ran away."

   "Why didn't you keep him?"

   "When will you take your men, intercept him, and leave him behind, then ask me this question again!"

The communication between the two teams could not be considered harmonious, but they had not forgotten their responsibilities in this maze. Except for the captain with the severed finger, the other five chased in the direction where Jon fled. .

  Jon has great limitations on his abilities in the maze, and the same is true for Death Eaters.

All areas of this maze are covered by anti-apparition magic, and their total number does not exceed a hundred. It is already the limit to disperse into a three-person team. According to the specific strength of Jon that they have discovered in the British Ministry of Magic Assessed, if there are less than three people, not only is there no possibility of killing or catching him, but there is also a great probability that he will kill him back.

   This is why one of the three Death Eaters had his finger blown off and lost his ability to cast spells for a short period of time, but the other two didn't rush after him. If you really catch up, it is not certain whether people can keep it, but the possibility of getting yourself into it is very high.

   And just when they started chasing, Jon had already turned three forked roads, and according to the map he got from the laboratory, he went back to the original normal road.

   After confirming that no Death Eaters were catching up behind him, Jon took out his invisibility cloak, and prepared to wear it for the rest of the journey.

  The Killing Curse that hit Nick really made him a little scared. If he hadn't adjusted the petrified Nick in front of him in advance, Jon would have no chance of surviving under the Killing Curse.

  Even if they put on the invisibility cloak, their forward speed would be greatly slowed down, and it would be inconvenient to move, so Jon still chose to be careful.

   Sure enough, his judgment was not wrong.

  After coming out of the secret corridor, he had already entered a patrol network of Death Eaters. Not long after he put on his invisibility and continued walking, he encountered another group of Death Eaters.

   It was also a three-person team, but the three did not find Jon. Instead, Jon detected their footsteps in advance, and hid with Gabriel in a corner near the ice wall without meeting them.

   Watching this group of Death Eaters leave, Jon was sure of at least one thing.

These people can't accurately know his movements. It is very likely that the three Death Eaters who had ambushed in a fixed position in advance had heard the conversation between him and Gabriel. Prepare.

   It also basically made Jon sure that there is a high probability that these Death Eaters in the maze cannot use Apparation casually.

   Otherwise, in the situation at that time, as long as they sent one person alone to call for reinforcements, and the remaining two tried to hold Jon back, it would definitely bring him more trouble.

   It turned out that they just ambushed ahead of time. Either the three of them wanted to take credit for it, thinking that a few of them would be able to deal with Jon, so they took the credit alone, or the speed of seeking support was not so fast.

  Jon thinks that the possibility of being greedy for merit is more reliable than the explanation of being unable to apparate or not being able to apparate.

   After all, although there are many lunatics among these Death Eaters, lunatics are not equal to fools. It is unlikely that a normal person will still think about greed for merit at this time.

   This speculation also made Jon feel relieved in his heart. If in the maze, the Death Eaters could still use Apparation to provide support anytime and anywhere, it would undoubtedly put a lot of pressure on Jon.

   means that as long as he shows up a little, he will be surrounded by dozens of people.

  If they don't care about the consequences of casualties, then this maze will definitely become Jon's burial place.

And now, since they have no way to use apparition, that is the best news, which means that Jon has more opportunities, even if he encounters any accidents and encounters with Death Eaters, it will not be unreasonable space.

  Then they proceeded cautiously towards the established goal, and encountered three waves of Death Eater squads, all of which they carefully avoided without being discovered.

   Just as Jon looked at the time on his pocket watch, they set off from the corridor and walked for seven or eight hours, before arriving at the first point marked on the map.

   This is an ice surface that looks no different from other places from the outside. Jon groped for a while and found no abnormalities.

   It wasn't until Gabriel passed through the ice wall and entered the inner ice layer that she discovered it.

   "This is empty, Jon!"

  Gabriel lowered her excited voice and said excitedly.

  Jon was also shocked.

   "Do you see what's in there?"

   "Book, a book the size of a notebook."

  Jon was a little disappointed by Gabriel's description. He thought he would find the gems left by Adrian here, but something is better than nothing.

  Although Gabriel was able to cross the ice and get the book, she couldn't bring it out.

   Fortunately, according to her description, the part of the ice where things are hidden is not very thick. Jon estimated that he used a shattering spell on that layer of ice.

  The sound of the spell was not small, so after he successfully broke the ice layer and took out the book Gabriel saw, he immediately used the repair spell on the broken part.

   Then, instead of checking the book immediately, she took Gabriel back to put on the invisibility cloak and immediately shifted her position.

   Not a minute after they left, a Death Eater team hurried to the place where Jon and the others had been before.

   But carefully checked the surroundings and found no movement of anyone. But he didn't just let it go, but used the paper airplane that tried magic to report the discovery.

  The speed at which a paper airplane transmits information can only be considered ordinary, not even as fast as an owl can send a letter.

   But in the cold Arctic, there are no owls that can work in this place, so the Death Eaters can only use this inefficient method.

   As for Jon, after he came to a fairly safe place, he hid under the invisibility cloak with Gabriel, and opened the book with a very old cover.

  However, to his disappointment, the content recorded in this book is not written in English, it looks a bit like German, anyway, Jon basically can't understand it.

   But after all, this is what Adrian punctuated on the map. Even if he can't understand it for the time being, Jon can't just throw it away.

  After properly putting the book in his pocket, he began to study the next target point on the map.

  Adrien marked a total of only three points on the map, two of which were dotted with red ink, and the other was black.

  The black mark is where Jon and the others found the map. Among the red dots, one has already discovered the book, and now there is only the last dot left.

   This point can basically be determined, which is the location of the gem made by Adrian in the North Pole.

  Jon didn't realize that he had worked so hard to come to such a place just to find the raw materials for making gems. As a result, the things were found and made, but there was no way to take them away, and he would not leave a mark.

   At the same time, this also reflects the importance of the book he got. Being able to be marked with a point by Adrian like a gem means that the status of this thing in his heart is equal to that of the gem.

  Afterwards, Jon didn't stop. The last point was far away from where they were now, basically about twice the distance from where he came here after entering the maze.

  They are still operating in invisibility cloaks, and only Gabriel is left, and Jon is not at ease to let her explore the way ahead alone, so their speed of progress has undoubtedly slowed down a lot.

   But apart from encountering Death Eaters and a battle broke out not long after coming out of the secret gallery, they were safe and sound during the rest of the journey. Even if they encountered a Death Eater team, they all avoided it smoothly.

   It was not until two and a half days later that they finally came within a mile of the marked point on the map.
