Chapter 20 Mountain Monster

Lu Yunkai and Harry Ron trotted all the way to the door of the girls' bathroom in the corner of the second floor.

From a distance, they heard Hermione's screams coming from inside, and the bathroom door had been smashed to pieces, so the three of them didn't have time to think carefully and rushed in directly.

Although Lu Yunkai had made mental preparations after hearing Daphne's words, the scene in the bathroom still made him feel a little nervous.

Hermione huddled in the corner of the bathroom, curled up into a ball, the washbasin in front of her had been smashed, and the water in the water pipe was constantly spraying out, and between the three of them and Hermione, a giant who was more than three meters tall stood there, holding a thick wooden stick more than one meter long in his hand.

"Hermione, it's okay, we are here, don't be afraid." Lu Yunkai took a deep breath and said to the screaming Hermione in a voice as calm as possible.

"...Okay." Hermione nodded with a crying tone.

"Hey! Big fool!!" Ron picked up a piece of stone that was broken by the mountain monster from the ground and threw it at it.

It hit the guy's abnormal head that was a little small compared to his body.

The mountain monster rubbed his head with his hand in a silly way, turned his head, saw the three boys behind him, raised the wooden stick in his hand and swept it towards the three people.

"Lie down!" Lu Yunkai shouted to Harry and Ron.

But it seemed a little redundant.

Ron's reaction was much faster than his. Long before he said it, he had already fallen forward and his whole body was directly attached to the ground.

But Harry seemed to be a little dazed and failed to dodge in time.

Fortunately, he was standing relatively far away, and although the mountain monster looked very strong, his movements were too slow. Although the huge wooden stick was brought to Harry, it did not directly knock him away.

Harry also reacted and directly hugged the wooden stick that hit him and hung on it.

Then the whole person was lifted up by the mountain monster along with the stick.

The mountain monster also realized that there was a person hanging on his weapon, and swung the wooden stick in his hand, trying to throw Harry off.

"Harry! Hold on! Don't panic, this guy is not smart!"

Lu Yunkai reminded Harry loudly, but he still lost his sense of proportion.

In his two lives, he could count the fights he had with one hand. He really didn't know what he could do at this time.

"Use your wands! Wands!!"

Hermione, who was squatting in the corner, became the calmest one at this time.

"Oh! Right!"

Lu Yunkai took out the wand from his robe.

"Petrification!" Lu Yunkai waved the wand in his hand and used the petrification spell on the mountain monster.

A golden light flew from his wand towards the mountain monster, but it deflected after touching its skin and reflected on the ground.

He then remembered that Daphne said that mountain monsters are not afraid of magic!

Lu Yunkai didn't have time to regret it.

The mountain monster was hurt by his magic attack, and let out a howl, raising the stick high, as if to smash it towards Lu Yunkai with Harry.

"Harry! Let go of the stick!" Ron, who was lying on the ground, shouted hurriedly.

Harry, who was hanging on the stick, immediately did the same, breaking away from the stick and falling on the mountain monster's neck.

"Hold on! Don't fall off!" Hermione also shouted behind the mountain monster.

"I'll try my best!!" Riding on the mountain monster's head and neck, Harry held the mountain monster's ears tightly with both hands and pinched its nostrils.

The stick in the mountain monster's hand had already smashed towards Lu Yunkai.

"Wingardium Leviosa!" Lu Yunkai looked at the weapon rushing towards him, waved his wand, and used the levitation spell on the stick.

The mountain monster is immune to magic, but your weapon can't be immune to magic too, right?

However.

"No! Not only do you have to wave, you have to tap! It's broken!!"

Hermione, hiding in the corner, discovered the mistake in Lu Yunkai's spell.

Things did turn out just as Hermione expected. The levitation spell did not work, and the huge wooden stick still fell down.

As Lu Yunkai failed to cast the spell, not only Hermione, but also Ron and Harry instinctively closed their eyes.

The wooden stick, which was probably several hundred kilograms, fell heavily on Lu Yunkai. No one thought that he had any chance of survival.

Except Lu Yunkai himself.

When the spell failed to be cast, he was also stunned for a moment, but soon, he had a backup plan.

If the spell is unreliable, then rely on the system!

He took a deep breath and put his hands in front of him.

Silence.

The mountain monster was stunned.

The huge wooden stick in its hand disappeared.

"You are not afraid of magic, I don't believe you are not afraid of potions!"

Lu Yunkai roared and threw a potion bottle at the foot of the mountain monster.

There was a crisp sound of the potion bottle breaking, and the black liquid inside flowed out, touched the mountain monster's body, and immediately turned into a puff of black smoke.

With a loud bang, the black smoke enveloped the mountain monster.

A heart-pounding scream came from the black smoke, and then, with a thud, the huge mountain monster fell down.

When the smoke cleared, a pool of black liquid as sticky as asphalt appeared on the ground, and the mountain monster lay there, life or death unknown, with only half of its two legs left, and a piece of leg bone soaked in the black liquid.

The scene was extremely tragic and terrifying.

Harry, who was riding on its neck, fell down with it, and rolled several times on the ground before stopping.

"Harry, are you okay?" Lu Yunkai was also shocked by the scene he created, but he still tried to stay calm.

"I'm fine... Yunkai, what happened?" Harry, who got up from the ground, looked at the miserable state of the mountain monster who was still arrogant a second ago, and stuttered in fear.

"Explosive Corrosive Potion." Lu Yunkai reported the name lightly.

One hundred and twenty gold galleons. This time it's really a big loss! He said silently in his heart.

Just now, when Lu Yunkai realized that his levitation spell failed, his first reaction was to activate the system, put his hands in front of him, and then sell the stick the moment the stick touched his body.

Three Knuts.

The only thing that could comfort Lu Yunkai was that the system evaluated the stick as an ownerless object, and it was sold smoothly, otherwise Lu Yunkai should have been a pile of meat paste...

"I'm not talking about this, I'm talking about where its weapon is?" Harry asked.

"I have an amulet that can protect me from disaster." Lu Yunkai remembered the pendant of Malfoy before, made a foolish remark, and then shouted to Hermione: "Come here! Be careful not to touch the black water on the ground."

"Okay." Hermione nodded, first picked up her wand that she dropped in the corner far away, then lightly jumped over the black water and came to Harry and Ron.

But she seemed to be deliberately avoiding Lu Yunkai.

Obviously, the miserable state of the mountain monster on the ground made her feel lingering fear.

"Ron, don't you want to apologize to Hermione?" Lu Yunkai reminded Ron.

"Oh, sorry, Hermione, I didn't mean those words, I..."

"If you hadn't attracted its attention just now, I would have died in its hands." Hermione interrupted Ron, "By the way, Lu Yunkai, why did you come?"

"... Can't I treat you as a friend? Am I not worthy?" Lu Yunkai smiled speechlessly.

This girl really doesn't know how to speak!

"That's not what I meant!" Hermione waved her hand quickly.

"Oh, I was just kidding you!" Lu Yunkai still smiled and shook his head, "I followed here because I was worried that Harry and Ron would be in danger."

"Anyway, thank you." Hermione nodded to Lu Yunkai seriously.

"You guys! Why are you here!!"

Just then, Professor McGonagall's voice rang out.

A group of people appeared from behind them.

Lu Yunkai glanced at the group of people who came. Wow, almost all the faculty and staff of the entire Hogwarts school are here!

Except Snape and Quirrell.

Why aren't they here?

"You..." Professor McGonagall's tone was angry, but looking at the mountain monster lying on the ground, he was speechless for a while.

"Did you get rid of the mountain monster?" Dumbledore walked out of the crowd and asked Lu Yunkai who was standing in front of everyone.

"Yes, we..."

"It's like this, Professor." Hermione, who was blocked by Lu Yunkai, stood up. "I heard the news about the mountain monster, and I thought I could get rid of it. I ran out despite Harry and Ron's obstruction. The two of them and Lu Yunkai followed me because they were worried about me. As a result, I was almost killed by the mountain monster. Thanks to the three of them, especially Lu Yunkai, they killed the mountain monster with some kind of magic potion."

"...Well, explosive corrosion potion." Dumbledore glanced at the black liquid underground, "Severus taught a good student!"

"But you guys, it's too dangerous to act on your own! Mountain monsters are not a joke." Professor McGonagall still had a cold face, "Because of your recklessness, your house will lose points because of you."

"This..." Lu Yunkai scratched his head a little embarrassed.

In order to save three Gryffindor students, he caused Slytherin to lose points in the college cup. I'm afraid that I will be punished by Professor Snape and scolded by Slytherin students when I go back? ?

"All of you go back to the lounge." Professor McGonagall glanced at them coldly.

"...Yes."

The four looked at each other, lowered their heads, and fled the bathroom in disgrace.

****

"Mr. Principal, do you think this explosive corrosion potion was made by Lu Yunkai himself?" Professor McGonagall looked at the backs of Lu Yunkai and others leaving, and said with some concern, "He is only a first-year student this year! This potion is very dangerous!"

"Even in Knockturn Alley, no one sells this potion. If he didn't make it himself, where else could it come from?" Dumbledore shook his head, "It seems that the genius of potion science cultivated by Severus is a bit too much!"

"..." Professor McGonagall looked ridiculous.

"Okay, let's clean up here, and you can go back to your respective colleges to settle the students."

"Yes."
