Take control of thunder and lightning from Hogwarts

Chapter 802 Parseltongue?
Facing the garrison summons pouring out, the battle situation immediately became extremely anxious.

All kinds of explosions, the roar of the curse flying one after another, as if continuous fireworks were set off in the center of the battlefield.

At this time, Harry and his party in the sky seemed to feel that the situation was not chaotic enough, and conducted another round of dive bombing on the gap in the city wall.

In the end, after losing three broomsticks, they still threw out the two sets of blasting amulets on their bodies.

This time the bomb dropped directly on the center of the battlefield, and even included many members of our own side. This kind of reckless air strike was far beyond the expectations of the defenders, so the damage caused was also surprisingly large.

The two rock puppets were blown to pieces before they could get close to the enemy. An anti-aircraft scattering gun and more than ten wizards from both sides also fell under the blast.

However, the only remaining defenders were still firmly resisting the attacking wizard, and because the attack surface was very narrow, the two lava cannons at the rear could be used perfectly, and the attacking wizard couldn't even get close to the gap.

"It's a pity." Snape outside the copy regretted, "It would be great if Harry put the target of this air strike on the artillery, and what is Wood thinking, even though he knows that the opponent's air power is very strong, he doesn't know Take precautions, they obviously have their own air force."

"In war, the allocation of resources has always been a headache." Anduin shook his head with a smile, "and such tactics as air bombing, even the defender's air force, cannot be completely prevented."

"Then isn't this kind of tactic invincible? It only costs a broomstick and a few bombs, but the effect it can achieve is far beyond expectations." Snape looked at Anduin inexplicably.

"In fact, they also have long-range equipment that can withstand air strikes." Anduin revealed, "It's just that the price is relatively high, and they may think it's not worthwhile to do so."

"But in this way, if the attacker puts more power into the air, wouldn't they suffer?" Snape shook his head dissatisfied.

"Indeed, but it's hard to guarantee that this isn't a trap specifically set by Wood for the attackers. If Percy strengthens the air force, maybe he will suffer." Anduin, who is good at digging holes for others, couldn't help but slander.

"But judging by the current situation, they don't seem to realize that it can be done."

Snape watched as dozens of broomsticks rose from the attacking phalanx, while the defenders exchanged a team of Gralings as if they had seen their tricks, and shook his head regretfully.

"It seems that the defenders still dislike the single-purpose use of those long-range air defense equipment." Anduin also smiled slightly regretfully.

On the screen, the battle between the two sides has entered a fierce stage, and the entire city wall has been destroyed by the curse. It seems that everyone has returned to the gang in the second stage, and it has become a frontal plain battle.

This is not good news for the defenders. It's not that they can't hold on anymore, but that after losing the city wall, the large amount of defensive equipment deployed on it has no wizards to control.

So after discovering this situation, Percy began to exchange for giant monsters to join the battle. Although the defenders' artillery and self-destructing snakes could suppress these summons, the attacking side's aerial troops harassed them from time to time, which also made the defenders very nervous. pain.

This fierce battle lasted for more than 20 minutes. At this time, there were less than 10 minutes left before the end of the defensive battle.

In fact, if the defenders could hold out longer in the first stage, the battle might have ended.

And under such a fierce battle, each wizard may have died more than ten or twenty times, and the various armaments of both sides were destroyed and bought new ones, and the new ones were quickly destroyed.

Even the air units on both sides canceled each other out after confrontations again and again, and each of them turned back into infantry to participate in the battle.

As a result, the bodies of the wizards gradually couldn't hold on anymore, they inevitably felt tired, and their magic power was gradually exhausted.

So at the end of the fight, everyone's spells had lost the accuracy and power they had at the beginning, and at this point the only thing left to compete was resources.

When it comes to the control of resources, the defensive side is obviously more reasonable than the offensive side, so the merit points they have saved are obviously much more.

Perhaps seeing that the victory was in sight, Wood couldn't hide his excitement when he saw this. He couldn't help but exchanged a large piece of self-destruct snakes, and pressed them on the wizards on the attacking side.

When Anduin saw this scene, he knew that the attacking side was over. If this round of attack was repulsed, there might be no chance for another attack.

Thinking of this, Anduin was about to turn around and leave. If Snape hadn't been interested in this, he wouldn't have stayed here to watch. It's not that he wasn't interested in it, but he still had a lot of experiments on hand right now. To do it, you have to grasp every minute.

Whoa!
But just when Anduin was about to leave, there was a sudden exclamation from the crowd behind him, as if something scary had happened.

Seeing this, Anduin couldn't help but looked back curiously, and then he couldn't help showing a surprised expression.

It turned out that when the large number of self-explosive snakes released by Wood rushed towards the opponent, for some reason, they suddenly turned their guns and attacked the defenders in an instant.

This kind of change is really beyond everyone's expectations. The original good tactical armament will turn against the water at a critical moment.

And this betrayal was very deadly. The defenders thought they were going to win, so they didn't have any defenses at all. As a result, they were blown up like this, and more than half of them were wiped out in an instant.

As a result, those wizards on the attacking side attacked the defender's headquarters in such a dazed manner, and won the second stage of victory.

"Hey!"

Outside the dungeon, Snape, who had seen this scene clearly, couldn't help but moved to Anduin's side, and asked with a puzzled look on his face, "The broken snakes you made must be broken, right? How can you turn around and attack your own people halfway?" What? I didn’t see any special props used by the attacker.”

"No, they're not broken, this...is this Parseltongue?" Anduin was also taken aback when he saw the scene just now, but after a brief identification, he discovered the problem.

"Parseltongue?" Snape's eyes widened when he heard that. "You mean, someone used Parseltongue to control those self-destructing snakes? Among the children?"

Snape's face was full of disbelief. He was no stranger to Parseltongue. The rarity of this language could not be described once in a hundred years. Could it be that such a person would appear among a group of young wizards?
But soon Snape noticed something was wrong again, "No, aren't those self-explosive snakes alchemy items? Even if they look like snakes, they can't understand Parseltongue, right?"

"They are indeed alchemy creations, but that doesn't mean they are unconscious." Anduin frowned deeply, and replied calmly, "This alchemy snake is a test sample I developed while studying soul magic some time ago."

"I have integrated part of the souls of snake creatures into their bodies. I originally planned to use this to test whether the existing souls can be fused with matter. Later, I found that although these snake souls can survive in the alchemy objects, they will not last forever. It's not that long."

"That's why I later used them as waste to make this kind of self-explosive snake. They are very smart and automatically track the enemy, and it is also because of conscious assistance."

"The fusion of soul and matter? Why do you want to study this?" Snape stared at Anduin like a monster, he couldn't understand this guy more and more now.

"Just curious."

Anduin made a perfunctory statement. In fact, he would study this project because he was inspired by the Horcrux. The wizard who made the Horcrux can split the soul and store it on the item, so as to achieve immortality.

However, the side effects of Horcruxes are also very obvious. The items that become Horcruxes become difficult to recover, and the souls that reside in them cannot be separated from Horcruxes.

So he was wondering if it is possible to develop an alchemical creation that allows the soul to enter and exit freely, and use it to complete difficult tasks.

This is actually equivalent to getting a new body made of alchemy items, and if this can be achieved, Anduin can use the characteristics of the Sanqing Curse to create two alchemy clones.

It's just that this research is still in the development stage, although a lot of progress has been made based on the information obtained from Nick, as well as the knowledge of Horcruxes and the Sanqing Mantra.

But because the matter of the Deathly Hallows was more urgent, he temporarily shelved it, but there were still some finished products in the early stage, that is, the self-destructing snake that was put into the battlefield dungeon.

However, compared to the self-destructing snake, he is now more interested in the little wizard who can speak Parseltongue. This is an ultra-rare special skill, and he has nowhere to learn it.

And Anduin didn't forget that in the secret room buried deep in Hogwarts, the secret door there had to be opened with Parseltongue.

Originally, he was thinking about finding another way to open that door, but now that there is a more convenient channel, he is naturally overjoyed.

But when the wizard used Parseltongue just now, Anduin happened to turn around and was about to leave, and now he has no idea who did it.

And looking at the state of the people at the scene, they probably didn't see clearly who caused the accident. Everyone just felt that everything happened inexplicably, and many people even suspected that something was wrong with the self-explosive snakes.

Faced with this situation, Anduin didn't bother to explain. He just wanted to find the wizard who could speak Parseltongue quickly. Fortunately, there was a backup video of the live broadcast.

So Anduin didn't hesitate, and immediately turned around and left. As for the outcome of this battle, as expected, the attacker should be able to win the final victory.

After all, in the previous high-intensity battles, most of the wizards on the defensive side had exhausted their physical strength. If they could end the battle in the second stage, it would be okay, but they might not have the energy to continue in the third stage.

After returning to the office, Anduin immediately retrieved the video of the battle, and then kept watching the movement of the attacking wizard before that scene happened.

However, due to the tricky assembly positions of the on-site video cameras and the relatively long distances, it is still quite difficult to actually check them.

"Looking at the situation at the time, only a few wizards at the forefront of the attacking side were able to do this, including Ginny, Percy, Neville, Harry, and several senior wizards. Those who acted abnormally before..."

"Could it be Harry?"

Anduin leaned in front of the screen, watching Harry's inexplicable leaning forward before the self-destructing snake approached them, and muttered inexplicably.

"Good guy, this kid still has this ability? Why haven't I seen him show it before?"

After observing it a few more times, Anduin thought that Harry was the most suspected, which made him couldn't help complaining.

But soon Anduin had doubts in his heart again.

"Harry is a student of Gryffindor, how could he be able to speak Parseltongue? According to records, this kind of talent should only appear in the heirs of Helbo or Slytherin. He is obviously Ignotus descendants, this is completely unreasonable..."

Facing this strange discovery, Anduin couldn't help but fell into deep thought.

"Could it be that Parseltongue is just a unique talent, and actually has nothing to do with bloodline?"

"Still, Harry has some special connection with Haierpo or Slytherin, but if we talk about this connection, the only one I can think of is Voldemort. This guy is the descendant of Slytherin."

After a while, Anduin, who was puzzled, finally shook his head, "I don't want to think about it so much now, the information is too little now, and the answer I get by forceful interpretation is also unrealistic."

"The thing to do now is to find Harry to clarify the matter."

Anduin made up his mind, then left the office and returned to the training square.

At this time, the confrontation in the battlefield dungeon had already produced results, and indeed the attacker still won in the end.

At this moment, the wizards on both sides who were sent out didn't even have time to celebrate or feel depressed, and they all lay down on the open space of the square, gasping for fresh air.

They fought this battle very tiringly. Originally, the wizards of both sides were evenly matched in strength, but in the end they fought hard until the last moment.

When on the battlefield, everyone could persist in fighting due to their mental excitement and willpower. When they came out, after everyone let go of that energy, they couldn't hold on any longer.

Seeing Anduin's appearance, Wood, who is relatively strong in physical fitness, struggled to get up, and complained a little unconvinced, "Professor, why did those self-explosive snakes lose control inexplicably when we fought to the end? If it wasn't because In this regard, the victory of this battle should belong to us!"

"I have seen the whole process of the cause of this incident." Facing Wood's defense, Anduin just replied indifferently, "I can only tell you that this is not caused by accidental factors, nor are those self-destructing snakes. There was a breakdown, and everything that happened made sense."
