Chapter 124: Attack
Hermione was very clever. Her first reaction to the troll was to scream, but before she could scream, she quickly raised her hand and covered her mouth, causing the scream to be suppressed.
Then, Hermione stared at the troll in horror and slowly retreated until her back hit the cubicle door.
The troll's eyes were fixed on Hermione from beginning to end, and its expression had the intention of a predator.
At this time, as Hermione's back touched the wooden planks of the cubicle, a light noise sounded. The troll seemed to have been touched by a switch. He took a heavy step forward, and with a ‘bang', he took a step forward.
Hermione finally collapsed in horror. At this moment, she lost all her calm. She turned around in a panic and opened the door, entering the cubicle as if the narrow wooden cubicle could protect her.
The troll saw that the little one was hiding and immediately raised the giant stick in his hand in annoyance, about to sweep towards the cubicle.
At this time, Coven, who had been invisible and following beside the troll, finally made his move.
Raising his hand, he pointed his wand at the troll's right armpit, which had been exposed from waving his staff. He fired out a silent technique,' Lightning Curse ‘, and a tiny bolt of lightning instantly hit the troll's armpit.
Under the conditioned reflex of the pain, the troll trembled all over and subconsciously let go of the giant stick in his hand.
Coven's second spell was' Floating Curse ‘. The tip of the wand swayed and aimed at the giant stick that had yet to land, causing it to float in the air.
At this time, a burst of rapid footsteps sounded. Harry Potter and Ron finally suppressed their fear and ran in from the door.
However, when they saw the troll, they couldn't help but stiffen in fear and stared blankly at the door.
The troll, who was originally confused because it saw the stick leave its hand, was also pulled back to its senses by the movement of Ron and the others.
"Roar!"
The troll was disturbed by its hunting, so it opened its stinky mouth and roared angrily. It didn't think about why the stick would float in the air and immediately reached out to the stick, intending to grab it back.
"Hermione! Run!"
At this time, Harry Potter finally got rid of his fear and quickly shouted to Hermione, who was hiding in the cubicle.
Hearing this, Hermione obediently pushed open the wooden door of the cubicle and rushed out. He immediately ran away from the troll to the wall at the end of the toilet.
At this time, the troll had already reached out his hand to the club floating in the air and was about to grab it.
Coven could not let it do as it wished, so he stepped back to the bathroom door while silently directing his wand to dodge in the air.
The troll tried to grab the stick but could not catch it. After a few times, the troll was extremely angry. It could not help but retract its arm and punch its chest.
After a muffled bang, the troll roared at the sky. Then, its bloodshot eyes quickly looked at Harry and Ron.
The limited IQ of the troll made it unable to understand what was wrong with the stick, but it believed that the arrival of Harry and Ron caused all this.
Therefore, the troll shifted its hunting target and listed Harry and Ron as its first killing target.
At this time, Coven had already disguised himself and walked to the bathroom door. He then used his wand to control the stick to rise up to the ceiling.
However, the troll did not pay attention to the stick this time. It had already taken large strides, causing the floor to tremble as it rushed towards Harry and Ron.
Seeing this, Coven immediately used the ‘Transfiguration Spell' to change the shape of the stick in the sky into a thick black cloth.
Then, Coven controlled the thick cloth to suddenly extend downwards and quickly rushed towards the troll.
Just as Harry and Ron screamed and ran away, the troll bent down and reached out. When it was only one meter away from the back of the two, the cloth above suddenly rotated and wrapped the troll's disproportionately small head inside.
The cloth that spread from the high ground constantly wrapped around the troll's head.
After wrapping around the troll five times, the cloth began to spread like a snake and continued to wrap around the troll's hands that were grabbing its head.
After wrapping the troll's arms, the cloth continued to meander downwards, wrapped around the troll's waist and legs.
In the end, the entire black cloth wrapped the troll's whole body into a black mummy, causing the troll to roar and struggle inside continuously.
The troll was worthy of being a magical beast that was extremely dangerous. The strength of its struggle was so great that the cloth wrapped in several layers continuously emitted cracking sounds.
However, if it wanted to break the cloth and escape successfully, it would need a long time.
Therefore, Coven stopped controlling the transformation curse outside the door. Then, he swung his wand in the direction of the corridor.
A silver, transparent light gushed out from the tip of the wand and quickly condensed into the shape of a bird in the air. Then, the illusory bird flew away quickly.
This was ‘Patronus'.
Since he had already published the ‘Dementors' thesis, Coven naturally had to master the ‘Guardian' spell that was used to deal with Dementors.
Moreover, not only did Coven master the ordinary usage of the ‘guard spell', but he also learned the advanced usage of the ‘guard spell' from Professor Flitwick.
The effect was just like what Coven had just displayed. After summoning the magic guard, the guard could send messages to others and so on.
Speaking of which, after Coven used ‘Patronus' to send a message to Professor McGonagall, he once again set his target on the troll.
The wand pointed at the ground under the troll's feet, and the transfiguration spell was released again.
The next moment, the stone floor under the troll's feet suddenly became soft like glue, and it quickly rose and transformed.
Like flowing water, it began to twist upwards along the troll's legs, and soon, the troll's entire body was completely wrapped up.
Then, the ‘stone liquid' solidified in an instant, forming an ancient Egyptian-style coffin that completely trapped the giant troll inside.
Since the giant troll had been wrapped into a mummy, Coven would naturally give it a matching mummy coffin.
Thus, an ancient Egyptian human-shaped coffin with exquisite details stood in the bathroom. Under the light of the wall lamp, the golden human-shaped coffin continuously emitted a golden radiance all around.
Listening to the struggle and muffled roars coming from the coffin, the protagonist trio had long been completely stunned there, all of them dumbstruck and extremely surprised.
After a long time, Hermione was the first to react. She could not help but shout, "Who is protecting us?"
Hearing this, Harry and Ron also came back to their senses and began to look around with Hermione, looking for who was attacking.
At the same time, the other three hurried footsteps were also gradually approaching the bathroom…
