Chapter 293 Calling for help

Lu Yuan smiled and said: [Even if I say I can handle it, you still feel uneasy, right? ]

Hearing this, a trace of embarrassment flashed across Hermione's tense face.

[It's good to have your own opinions and judgments. As for the explosion, the energy inside is too strong. If something unexpected happens, I can only take you away at most. ]

Lu Yuan lied here. He didn't care whether Hermione saw it or not. Anyway, he wanted to express one meaning: you have to handle this matter by yourself. I will only protect your life.

The smart Hermione immediately asked, "Mr. Lu Yuan, how long will it take for the explosion?"

[It's hard to say, maybe ten minutes, maybe twenty minutes. ]

"Then I want to bring people here, can I do it?"

[Yes, but are you sure you want to do this? You have to think clearly. Once you start to fight later, your strength will be completely exposed. ]

"I know it very well!" Hermione spoke without hesitation.

Lu Yuan smiled and said: [Okay, as you wish! ]

At this time, a square stone pillar rose in front of Hermione, with a special stone ball on top.

[You can leave by touching the stone ball, and the entrance is still the red book in the library! ]

"Thank you, Mr. Lu Yuan!"

Hermione raised her hand and placed it on the stone ball. A similar feeling of space shuttle appeared again, and she was back to the library in a blink of an eye.

After appearing, Hermione first confirmed her location, and then cast a flying spell on herself.

The moment she flew to the outside world, her wand was already pointing to the sky, and three red fireworks spells quickly rose into the air and exploded. In order to amplify the sound, Hermione added a few explosion spells.

The loud noise woke up many people's dreams.

Hermione flew directly to McGonagall's office.

In addition to being used for office work, the professors' offices on campus are also personal residences.

When Hermione flew to the door of the Transfiguration office, the wooden door was just opened, and McGonagall, wearing a robe and pajamas, walked out with a frown.

"Granger, you..."

"Something bad has happened to the professor!"

She immediately told him how she was summoned, "accidentally" went to the inheritance place, and then learned that it was related to ancient magic, and finally what happened unexpectedly. She emphasized the harm of the explosion to students and the castle.

In terms of speaking speed, we can always trust Hermione.

The brief narration has made the general situation clear.

It's just that the amount of information in this speech once made the older cat girl lose control of her expression several times.

"Professor, Headmaster Dumbledore temporarily left the school because of a letter before, and now you need to gather other professors to help!" Hermione said anxiously.

McGonagall grabbed Hermione's arm, her expression more serious than ever before, "Are you sure? Granger, if this is just a joke, it will be very bad!"

"I'm sure, professor. If it's false, I am willing to accept the punishment of being expelled. Hurry up!"

McGonagall looked into Hermione's eyes and nodded, "Okay, tell me, where is the entrance?"

"Library!"

As soon as she finished speaking, McGonagall pointed her wand at the table, and a piece of paper was quickly covered with handwriting, and then it was wrapped in orange-red flames and disappeared.

Hermione could guess that it was probably some kind of emergency communication method.

At the same time, McGonagall mobilized the authority of the vice-principal, and the voice instantly echoed in the ears of everyone in the school.

"All teachers and students, please pay attention, urgent notice, please leave the castle tower immediately within ten minutes and go to the Quidditch field to gather, and the heads of each grade should maintain good discipline. At the same time, please ask Professor Snape, Professor Sprout, and Professor Flitwick to gather in front of the library!"

McGonagall's voice rang three times in a row, even a pig could hear it.

The whole school was boiling now.

After doing all this, McGonagall had a complicated expression, "I hope this is just a joke."

When Hermione and McGonagall arrived at the library, the three deans had already rushed over.

As for the other professors, McGonagall did not call them, after all, not everyone is suitable for fighting, most of them are just good at one skill.

"What happened? Minerva, you have never used a school-wide notice!" Sprout asked with concern.

"Let's talk while walking, Miss Granger, you lead the way!"

Hermione nodded and led the deans all the way to the red book. On the way, she eloquently recounted the previous words again.

Before the deans digested it, Hermione's figure had touched the red book and was teleported away.

Others suppressed their shock and followed suit.

As their footsteps landed again, a group of five people appeared in front of the original hall.

"Where are the four paintings you mentioned?" Snape looked around, his eyes lingering on the cracked wall for a few seconds.

"After I knew the news, I wanted to inform you professors, but they didn't allow me to leak the news here, so I destroyed them directly!" Hermione said bluntly.

Hearing this, Snape's eyes flashed with praise, "Well done, if what you say later is true, then Gryffindor will get five points!"

"Thank you, professor, this way!"

Before the professors could observe too much, Hermione was already running in front to lead the way. In fact, it was Lu Yuan who marked the path for her, which was the passage that appeared before.

As they went deeper, the shaking inside became more and more violent.

Until they came to a huge cave space.

Two knight statues were seen in front of them, attacking an inverted bowl-shaped red transparent barrier.

Inside the barrier, a hexagonal altar was seen, and a violent energy ball composed of black and red matter was suspended in the center of the altar, which was in a semi-sealed and semi-active state.

Right in front of the sphere was Evelyn, who had entered first.

At this moment, Evelyn's body, including her face, had red lines that appeared and disappeared from time to time, as if she was a piece of porcelain that would break at any time.

Behind her, the red energy silk connected her body to the energy ball, and energy was being continuously injected.

Feeling the violent energy, the faces of several professors changed. They could see that Evelyn was forcibly extracting the power of the energy ball.

But the power of that energy was simply not something that the human body could withstand.

Now that the extraction process has begun, once Evelyn explodes, the energy can be completely vented, resulting in the explosion that Hermione mentioned.

As for Evelyn, the recipient, didn't she notice it?

No, she had red eyes and had lost her mind.

"Pomona, leave this to us. Please urge the students to leave the castle as soon as possible, and let all the house elves move. Those who are slow will be taken away directly!" Mag pursed her lips tightly and gave orders calmly.

Sprout had no complaints. Although she was not weak, her expertise was in herbology, so her current help was indeed limited.

"Professor, the stone ball on the pillar in the hall just now can be touched and left!" Hermione did not forget to turn back and remind.

"I know, you should be careful too!"

After saying that, Sprout turned around and left in a hurry.

"We have to find a way to interrupt the energy extraction process. Of course, the premise is the light shield barrier in front of us!" McGonagall said.

However, Flitwick spoke at this time, "I think there are two big guys to deal with before facing the light shield barrier!"

It turned out that as the few people approached, the stone knights who were still mindlessly attacking the barrier had stopped, and all turned their heads to lock on them.
