Chapter 207 It’s finally time to take action!

The cocktail party that night did not cause any waves in Hogwarts. Many young wizards didn’t even know about the party. Everyone continued to study and live as usual.

The only change was that Yang Tian was exempted from classes, and all Transfiguration courses were arranged by Yang Tian at the end of the semester. The young wizards were envious of this; in fact, Yang Tian himself was also very happy, because the first-year Transfiguration course was really meaningless to him; instead of wasting time, he might as well invest in new research and learn new knowledge...

Oh, there was another change! After the cocktail party that night, Headmaster Dumbledore suddenly became a recluse and rarely appeared in everyone's sight. Of course, this situation did not cause trouble to most Hogwarts teachers and students. After all, he was not directly involved in teaching, but more of a mascot... Oh! Wrong! He was a patron saint.

But Yang Tian felt something was wrong. He suspected that Dumbledore himself should no longer be in Hogwarts. He should have gone to Albania!

Of course, he was not the only one who noticed something unusual. Recently, Professor Quirrell rarely appeared in public except for teaching. However, the intelligence from the Marauder's Map and the scouting team in the restricted area on the fourth floor showed that the professor had been in this restricted area almost every night since Dumbledore went into seclusion.

Moreover, there are more discoveries on the Marauder's Map than just that. A more interesting phenomenon is that Snape has been keeping a close eye on Quirrell recently, while Ron and Harry have been keeping a close eye on Snape.

Is this the legendary man-to-man defense? Yang Tian combined the original plot and sorted out his thoughts, but he made up his mind! He couldn't wait endlessly like this, it was time to take action! Otherwise, the training opportunity he left for his friends would be snatched away by Ron and Harry by accident.

So, the following morning, Neville, Hermione, Penelope, Zhang Qiu, Padma, Parvati, Pansy, and Daphne entered the Room of Requirement together at Yang Tian's call.

"I've decided. We have to take action against Quirrell!" Yang Tian said first, "I suspect Dumbledore has left Hogwarts. Quirrell's behavior is obviously abnormal. We can't let him continue like this."

"Then when do we take action?" Parvati asked excitedly.

"It's better to do it today than to wait for a day! Tonight." Yang Tian immediately began to distribute talismans and continued, "The little guys have already told me the general situation of this restricted area. It's basically a level set by the professors. It's not very dangerous. I prefer to call it a test! Therefore, I won't take action during the level stage. You have to rely entirely on your own efforts to pass this test. Is there any problem?"

"Don't worry, Tian, ​​we have been training hard these days and we won't let you down." Hermione said confidently. The friends also echoed her words, and for a moment, everyone was eager to fight.

Yang Tian was very satisfied with everyone's reactions. After discussing the details with everyone, they dispersed...

At midnight, Yang Tian and his friends finally gathered in front of the restricted area on the fourth floor. They had been looking at the Marauder's Map, and after confirming that Professor Quirrell had been there for an hour, they set out decisively. Under the cover of the advanced Disillusionment Spell, they naturally had no danger along the way.

Everyone pushed the door open and entered. The huge three-headed dog Fluffy seemed to have fallen asleep. The trapdoor on the ground was very eye-catching. Next to it was a harp. Was this how Quirrell passed this level?

For this level, the friends who had already learned the news were naturally well prepared. Without any further ado, they placed a music box in the corner of the room, and then jumped down from the trapdoor one by one.

Everything was just like the original. After jumping off the trapdoor, they would naturally fall into the Devil's Net prepared by Professor Sprout. Now there were nine people in this group, and each of them was considered an elite, right? How could they not know the habits of the Devil's Net? After a simple lighting spell, it was another easy level.

Yang Tian didn't say a word throughout the whole process, but he was still quite happy to see his friends' agile figures.

Following closely behind their friends, they passed through the long corridor and soon found a room at the end of the corridor.

But inside the room, the dome was arched high, and inside, there were a lot of birds as bright as gems, flapping their wings and flying.

Penelope glanced around the room and saw a heavy wooden door on the side. She looked at the simple silver door lock and the flying bird in the room, and she seemed to be thinking about something.

Anxious, Parvati stepped forward and cast an unlocking spell, but unfortunately, the wooden door did not respond.

Penelope smiled and said, "Sure enough, the question is obvious. Do you see those two flying brooms?" She pointed to the other side of the room and continued, "Those flying things are not birds, but keys! Ride on the flying broom, find a silver and ancient key, then open the door and leave.

Everyone was certain when they heard this, and their eyes were all locked on Yang Tian. When they saw this guy crossing his arms and looking like he was enjoying the show, they groaned in anger and continued to lock on the next target, Zhang Qiu.

Zhang Qiu was not surprised. She smiled confidently, then sat on her flying broom and flew into the sky.

As Zhang Qiu took off, the key also accelerated its flight as if it had discovered danger. Zhang Qiu was the best seeker in Hogwarts after all. She carefully searched while circling and soon locked onto the target. At this moment, she was up and down like an elf in the wind, and in an instant she came to the key. She reached out and grabbed it, and then held it firmly in her palm. The key in her hand began to struggle violently, but Zhang Qiu didn't care, and happily spun and flew down.

But at this moment, the friends exclaimed. Zhang Qiu looked and saw that all the keys were rushing towards her impatiently. She quickly accelerated and rushed down, stuffed the key firmly into Hermione's hand, and then hurriedly pulled up the broomstick, a standard small-scale Wronski fake move. Then, she played hide-and-seek with these angry keys, everything was so calm.

Hermione hurriedly opened the door, and everyone watched Zhang Qiu's flying performance leisurely...

But at this moment, an accident happened! Some of the keys behind Zhang Qiu suddenly exploded in a chain. The airflow of the explosion directly knocked Zhang Qiu and her flying broom out. Not only that, taking advantage of her illness, she was killed; in such an emergency, more keys accelerated towards Zhang Qiu...

Yang Tian was also frightened by the scene before him. There was no such scene in the original novel! What on earth was going on? Angry, Yang Tian had already drawn out the ancient magic wand and was ready to rescue.

Suddenly, Zhang Qiu, who was falling, suddenly chanted a spell, and his figure instantly became ethereal along with the spell. The next moment, the ethereal figure flew to the side of his friends at an extremely fast speed.

At this moment, the door opened! Seeing this, the friends rushed in one after another, and slammed the door shut after the last person entered. Then, a series of explosions came from behind the door...

"Damn it, this level is designed to be too dangerous." Parvati said hatefully.

"That's right, it's almost life-threatening!" Padma was still frightened, but she quickly said happily: "But Zhang Qiu, what was your last move? It was so cool!"

"Flying spell, as you know, I have been conducting related research for a long time. Although it is not perfect yet, it is enough to deal with today's situation." Zhang Qiu said with unprecedented confidence.

"Merlin, Qiu, have you really finished it?" Penelope was happy for her good sister: "After you go back, you must teach me this trick."

"That's right, that's right, we want to learn it too." The friends also echoed.

"No problem, but this is indeed an imperfect magic and needs further polishing." Zhang Qiu replied embarrassedly.

......

Everyone was very happy, except Yang Tian, ​​who was lost in thought. This level should be the work of Professor Flitwick, but this explosion was definitely not caused by him! Who was it? Professor Quirrell? Or... Sarok?
