Chapter 449: Cleaning up the show (thank you for being a prankster)

Chapter 44 Thanks to the leader of the Wheel of Fortune who likes to play pranks, plus update 25)

The two people standing on the boat suddenly felt as if a cold wind was blowing on their slightly hot cheeks.

Yes, they don't have to go to the center of the lake to get the fake locket, so why take a boat.

Dumbledore reacted the fastest. He naturally raised his feet and returned to the shore from the boat.

"Oh, people cannot lack sleep when they get old, and their brains are a little bit exhausted... But I think you might want to take a look at Voldemort's design. This is probably it. They are all his usual methods. They have been used for decades. Nothing has changed.”

"Yeah, you're right." Kyle smiled.

Fox on his shoulder immediately turned his head away, seemingly interested in the bare rock wall.

Sirius and Kreacher also reacted at this time and followed him quickly out of the boat.

It does save more time here than going to the center of the lake, and after finding Regulus, you can leave faster.

After everyone got off, the boat returned to the lake and disappeared.

Sirius stood on the shore, looked at the calm lake and said, "Do we have to come into contact with the lake water here to attract those monsters?"

Although he asked this question, he didn't seem to need an answer. As he spoke, he had already arrived at the lake and put his hand into the cold lake water as Kreacher described.

This move seemed to trigger some kind of switch. A white arm came out of the lake, quickly grabbed Sirius's arm, and dragged him into the lake with force.

At the same time, the lake surface was no longer as smooth as a mirror, but was churning violently. White arms and heads were everywhere emerging from the dark water, rushing toward the shore at extremely fast speeds.

"Let go, Master!" Kreacher shouted and stretched out his fingers, as if using a repelling spell or something. The Inferi let go of Sirius and fell back into the water with a plop.

However, more Inferi have crawled out, grabbing the slippery rocks with withered hands, staring at Sirius with hollow eyes.

Sirius quickly retreated to the shore, took out his wand, and while retreating, he carefully identified the face of each Inferi. Only after he was sure that it was not Regulus... would he use a magic spell to knock the other person back into the water.

Soon, six or seven Inferi were knocked down, but more came.

Kyle and Dumbledore also stepped forward to help.

Among them, Dumbledore was the most relaxed. He didn't need to recite magic spells at all. He could just wave his wand to make these monsters fly back into the water and never climb out again.

For Dumbledore, it was too easy to deal with this guy who couldn't use magic.

If he wasn't worried about accidentally injuring Regulus, he would have many more efficient ways.

Kyle also kept casting petrification spells next to him, attacking those guys who couldn't be Regulus at first sight.

Everyone had a clear division of labor. Sirius acted as bait in the front, Kreacher was responsible for finding Regulus, and Kyle and Dumbledore provided magic support in the back. The three of them and one elf worked together in perfect harmony.

After using a few more petrification spells, Kyle looked at the increasing number of enemies and couldn't help but said: "It would be great if I could use the Fire Curse. Put it around Sirius to ensure that those guys come as many times as they want." How many deaths?"

Hearing Kyle's words, Dumbledore's hand holding the wand paused slightly, and the magic around Sirius also stopped for a moment.

Although the time was short, Sirius was still overwhelmed, and those cold arms lifted him from the ground and walked slowly, but without hesitation, towards the black lake.

"Everyone retreat!"

Dumbledore quickly waved his wand and rescued Sirius.

"There is such a spell, but it cannot be used now." He said softly: "The flames will make them instinctively retreat, making it harder for us to find Regulus."

"Then do you know how to do it?" Kyle asked, "You can teach..."

"No!" Dumbledore interrupted Kyle.

He was silent for a moment before continuing: "The Fire Curse is a high-end black magic. Although I don't know how you learned it, I must tell you that this kind of black magic is extremely dangerous and extremely difficult to control. If you don't have to, It's best never to use it.

If you are really interested, I can teach you another spell, which is a variation of the Fire Charm and is relatively safer. "

"What is..."

"Master Regulus!"

Kyle was about to ask when he heard an excited scream from Kreacher not far away.

Then he rushed towards the tide of corpses desperately, trying to drag one person out, letting the other person scratch and bite him without letting go.

Kyle looked over subconsciously. It was a very young man. His face had lost all color and became white and shriveled. But everyone, including Kyle, could recognize him at a glance. He was Regulus.

Because this look is so similar to Sirius who just escaped from Azkaban.

Kreacher dragged Regulus to the rocks at the entrance, hugging him and crying and screaming.

Everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief, and Sirius's laughter echoed in the empty cave, as if what was chasing him was not a scary monster, but hundreds of cute moon-crazy beasts.

Dumbledore also smiled, turned to Kyle and said: "I was worried about how to describe the effect of the spell to you just now, but now it seems that there is no need. Stay closer to me..."

Kyle nodded and immediately took a few steps forward.

Then Dumbledore raised his wand, and flames suddenly burst out from the tip.

The dark cave was lit up.

Bright, golden-red flames rolled around Dumbledore, following the turning of the wand like waves, and continued to grow.

There was a harsh crackling sound from the surroundings, and the original cold and damp feeling disappeared instantly and became extremely hot.

When Dumbledore stretched out his wand again, the flames surged and condensed into a huge golden-red tsunami, rushing forward.

In the blink of an eye, there was an open road at least ten feet wide in front of Kyle, with two scorching walls of fire extending forward on both sides, as if across the entire lake, with no end in sight.

Kyle was dumbfounded.

He was originally thinking about letting Norbert out to clear the place, but he didn't expect... Dumbledore's hand was much more powerful than the fire dragon.

Dumbledore put away his wand, looked at Kyle's expression, and nodded with satisfaction.

"How about it? Have you thought about it?" He asked with a smile: "Do you want to learn the Fire Spell, or this one?"

"Professor, I want to learn this." Kyle said without hesitation.

After getting the answer, Dumbledore was even more satisfied.

That's right, what's the point of using the Fire Spell to draw a circle around it? It's useless to learn it, it's a waste of time.
