Hogwarts: I'm the only cultivator here!

As soon as the teleportation ended, Ye Feng quickly looked around. After realizing his situation, he couldn't help but swear. However, he quickly adjusted his mindset and hid in the bushes next to him, carefully observing his surroundings.

Fortunately, although he was teleported to the bottom of the valley, there were no 'enemies' around him, so after surveying his surroundings, he quickly began to run towards the top of the mountain.

As Ye Feng ran up the planned route, he discovered that sometimes there were advantages to having less vegetation, namely, fewer obstacles that could significantly increase his speed. Just as Ye Feng was about to reach the top of the mountain, a person suddenly jumped out of the bushes beside him and shouted.

"what!"

Ye Feng:!!!∑(?Д?ノ)ノ

The sudden fright made Ye Feng tremble all over. He was already exhausted after being deliberately suppressed, and the fright made him stagger and fall backward. Zhang Qiu, who had suddenly jumped out and startled Ye Feng, was also frightened by the scene and quickly reached out to grab Ye Feng.

Zhang Qiu's pull allowed Ye Feng to regain his balance. When he saw that it was Zhang Qiu who had startled him, Ye Feng was both annoyed and amused, and finally couldn't help but chuckle.

Seeing that Ye Feng wasn't angry, Zhang Qiu smiled too. Just as the two were about to say something, a loud bang suddenly came from the mountain not far away. The booby trap left by Ye Feng had exploded.

Chapter 196 Poor Malfoy

"boom!"

The loud explosion startled Ye Feng and Zhang Qiu, but Ye Feng burst into laughter when he saw where the explosion had occurred.

"Oh ho? I didn't expect the booby traps I left behind to explode like this. I wonder which lucky unlucky guy it was."

Zhang Qiu: ...

Hearing Ye Feng's words, Zhang Qiu couldn't help but roll her eyes. However, she was also curious about who was so unlucky as to be blown up by the booby trap left by Ye Feng, so the two of them took out their binoculars and looked over.

The moment Ye Feng took out his binoculars and saw the situation on that hilltop, he was delighted. On that hilltop, a handsome young man, dressed in tattered black clothes but with shiny, oily hair that was only slightly covered in dirt, was sitting on the ground looking completely bewildered.

"Isn't this our pure-blooded nobleman, Mr. Malfoy? Who would dare to lay a hand on you like this?" Ye Feng's face remained serious at first, but he couldn't help but laugh halfway through his sentence.

However, his amusement soon turned to a sour note, as he suddenly realized that Malfoy was wearing a suit of armor, and based on the defensive capabilities of that armor, even if the booby trap had hit Malfoy head-on, it wouldn't have killed him instantly.

That's why Malfoy sat on the ground looking completely bewildered after being bombed.

As Ye Feng had predicted, Malfoy's luck was indeed quite good.

Although he was shot and sent flying, he actually landed next to a small wooden box. The box, painted green and almost blending into its surroundings, was about 40 or 50 centimeters tall and contained a set of armor and a strawberry cake.

Armor provides extra protection; although it can't be used directly as a health bar, it can reduce damage by half. As for the small cake, besides being delicious, it can also 'restore health'; one small cake can restore three drops of health.

It was precisely because of these things that when Malfoy disregarded the marks left by Ye Feng and went off to find a good spot to wreak havoc, only to trigger a booby trap and be blown into the sky, he didn't turn into a white light and be kicked out of the game in mid-air. Instead, he fell back to the ground with a thud, still with one bar of health left.

Malfoy, who was already stunned by the explosion, was thrown again. The double blow made his head buzz and he was almost dumbfounded, which is why Ye Feng and the others saw what happened.

Listening to Ye Feng's words and seeing Malfoy's miserable appearance, Zhang Qiu couldn't help but give him a reproachful look. Then she pulled the gun that was on her back back and lay down on the ground to set it up.

Ye Feng: Σ(っ°Д°;)っ

Seeing Zhang Qiu's expression, Ye Feng was instantly stunned. Seeing Ye Feng looking at him in surprise, Zhang Qiu smiled and said, "You set the rules. The person with the most kills wins the championship, so I'll take this kill."

Ye Feng: (?Д?)ノ

"boom!"

With a crisp gunshot, a bewildered Malfoy vanished in a flash of white light. When he came to his senses, he found himself back in the restaurant, which enraged him, as he had no idea how he had died.

After gracefully finishing off the wounded Malfoy with a single shot, Zhang Qiu did not get up but continued searching for targets around him, ignoring the safety of his back.

Although it's a one-on-one battle, even if there were only two of them left, let alone so many others, she would still dare to turn her back to Ye Feng without reservation, because she believed that Ye Feng would never hurt her and would never shield her from any enemies or attacks from behind.

Seeing Zhang Qiu so carelessly turn his back to him, Ye Feng couldn't help but sigh. But having a teammate was good; that way, he wouldn't have to worry about his backside being compromised when defending the high ground.

However, although their location was on the mountaintop, it wasn't a very good spot, because it was already considered the outermost edge of Hogwarts, so there was no point in guarding it.

Therefore, after Ye Feng and Zhang Qiu had set up their guns and searched the surrounding area for a while, they headed towards the hill where Malfoy had been.

Of course, Ye Feng had also disguised Zhang Qiu beforehand, so the 'tree' heading towards Hogwarts Castle changed from one to two.

"Ow~"

Just as Ye Feng and Zhang Qiu continued forward, a loud wolf howl suddenly rang out, which made Ye Feng's eyes light up instantly, because there was only one kind of creature that could appear and howl so loudly after being shrouded in the formation, and that was the 'monster' he had specially created.

These 'monsters' are puppets he created using the blood of various magical or ordinary animals obtained from the Forbidden Forest, combined with array formations. Their sole purpose is to be killed by the participants in the event to obtain gift boxes; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call them mobile gift boxes.

Of course, if you rush in recklessly, you might get eliminated by the 'gift box', because these animals carrying the gift box are all aggressive, and they attack indiscriminately, possessing the ability to scan the entire map and ignore hiding places.

However, as long as you don't foolishly rush forward and instead choose to use the gun in your hand, there will basically be no danger.

So, when Ye Feng heard the wolf howl, he immediately grabbed Zhang Qiu's hand and gestured for her to follow him.

Zhang Qiu knew that 'monsters' carrying gift boxes would randomly spawn during the event, because Ye Feng had mentioned it before the competition started, but since he hadn't encountered one before, Zhang Qiu didn't immediately recall it.

But after Ye Feng grabbed her and gestured for her to follow him, Zhang Qiu suddenly remembered. Thinking of the plum blossom pastry she had received earlier, Zhang Qiu couldn't help but lick her red lips, because the plum blossom pastry did indeed taste very good.

Suddenly remembering something, Zhang Qiu tugged at Ye Feng's hand and, after he stopped, carefully took out a box of well-wrapped plum blossom pastries from her bosom and placed it in his hand.

"I got this when I was in the castle. It's delicious, and I thought you would like it too, so I kept some."

Ye Feng was stunned when he heard Zhang Qiu's words, and Zhang Qiu saw Ye Feng staring blankly at her delicate face and a look of doubt flashed across her face.

"What's wrong? Is there something on my face? Or do you not like plum blossom pastries?"

Upon hearing Zhang Qiu's words, Ye Feng seemed to wake from a dream. After regaining his senses, he quickly opened the well-protected plum blossom pastry package. When he opened the box that day and found that there was still more than half left, he felt an indescribable feeling in his heart for some reason.

So he picked up a plum blossom pastry, looked at Zhang Qiu, and said, "Open your mouth."

Hearing Ye Feng's words, Zhang Qiu looked up at him with a slight puzzlement. Although she was puzzled, she obediently opened her mouth and found that Ye Feng had stuffed a sweet plum blossom pastry into her mouth.

Chapter 197 The Amazing Brain Circuit of a Foodie

Pastries aren't a staple food; their original purpose wasn't to fill you up. They're mostly just for tasting, so a box of plum blossom pastries didn't have many pieces. Therefore, Ye Feng and Zhang Qiu each took one and finished most of the box in no time.

Although they walked a little slower because they had finished eating plum blossom pastries, the gray giant wolf had not yet been killed when they saw it.

But thinking about it, it makes sense. They are already in the outermost area of ​​Hogwarts. Generally, teleportation is done towards the direction closer to Hogwarts Castle, so there are not many people around them, and even fewer are willing to rush back.

However, less does not mean none.

Just as Ye Feng had set up his gun to take down the wolf, Zhang Qiu suddenly nudged Ye Feng with his elbow and then turned the gun around to aim in another direction.

Seeing this, Ye Feng glanced in the direction Zhang Qiu was aiming and saw a classmate, about sixteen or seventeen years old, wearing a straw ring on his head, carrying a light machine gun and with an excited smile on his face, rushing towards them.

But this was not what surprised Ye Feng. What really surprised him was that after the camera moved slightly, Ye Feng saw three other people. Two of those three people were holding rifles, and one was holding a sniper rifle.

"Wow~ Two gunners, a machine gunner, and a sniper, this setup... is amazing!"

Although it's unclear how they got together, this team composition is definitely not to be trifled with, and the person who knows how to form a team like this must have a considerable understanding of firearms. In other words, these people might be half and half, meaning one of their parents is Muggle-born.

"This is a bit tricky, but something's not quite right. Logically speaking, someone who knows how to form a team like this wouldn't just charge forward without any preparation or formation."

"Wait, are these guys fishing?" While pondering, Ye Feng carefully searched the surrounding high points, especially the direction from which these people came.

And sure enough, this search actually brought Ye Feng to the scene. However, it was also due to good luck, because the other party was facing the sun, which allowed Ye Feng to see the reflection of the other party's sniper rifle scope. Otherwise, he really wouldn't have been able to find the other party.

"Xiao Feng, should we fight?"

Seeing that there were so many people on the other side, Zhang Qiu did not fire rashly but first sought Ye Feng's opinion. Wasn't the reason why Ye Feng made such a big show of things and activated the teleportation array every hour to avoid this situation?

More importantly, that's five kills! Where would you find so many people to put together at any other time? So a fight is definitely going to happen, but the team needs to be organized beforehand. Otherwise, given the opposing team's composition, they might end up being the ones getting eliminated.

So Ye Feng replied in a low voice, "There's no reason not to eat the fat meat that's delivered to our door. But let's wait and see if they kill that wolf before we make our move."

"By the way, I'll fire first. After I take out the sniper hiding behind, you take out the sniper among the four. Once you've taken out those two snipers, the rest won't be much of a threat. Just take out the easier one."

"Okay, I listen to you."

Ye Feng and Zhang Qiu, having assigned their tasks, lay quietly on the ground waiting. Meanwhile, the Hufflepuff team opposite them was completely unaware that danger was approaching; they were caught up in the excitement of about to receive a gift box.

The monsters carrying gift boxes have health points, and even hitting a vital point will only cause more health loss. In addition, these monsters have been enhanced and have extremely fast movement speed, so it is not easy for a single person to kill them, even if they have a gun.

However, this was not a problem for their makeshift 'Creamy Squad' at all, because they had powerful firepower and a considerable number of people, enough to easily suppress the giant wolf and take it down before it could charge.

So, when they were about 300 meters away from the giant wolf and about to enter its aggro range, the boy from the Cream Squad carrying the machine gun propped it up on a rock.

"boom!"

"Da da da…"

As the sniper opened fire first, machine guns and rifles followed suit, and almost instantly more than a dozen flowers of blood appeared on the giant wolf's body.

Fortunately, the giant wolf's reaction speed was still very fast after being enhanced, and these monsters, like the contestants, did not have the setting of losing status when injured. Therefore, almost the next second, the giant wolf jumped forward to dodge the attack.

However, these puppets don't have much intelligence. Their design doesn't include retreat or escape, so almost the second after dodging the shot, the giant wolf locked onto the Cream Squad's location and charged towards them.

Of course, although Ye Feng did not endow them with much intelligence, they still had the ability to dodge attacks. Therefore, while the giant wolf was charging towards the Cream Squad, it was also constantly jumping and turning, using various trees, bushes and other vegetation to dodge and reduce damage.

Unfortunately, Cream Squad's firepower was indeed very strong, and their snipers were quite skilled. Even while the giant wolf was moving, they were still able to maintain a certain hit rate. So when the giant wolf was still about fifty meters away from them, its health was depleted and it fell down.

"It's now!"

"boom!"

Ye Feng gave a low shout in his mind and pulled the trigger. With the sound of a gunshot, a white light appeared halfway up the mountain behind the Cream Squad. Less than a second after Ye Feng's gun fired, Zhang Qiu's gun next to him also went off.

Thanks to their magical firearms, the bullets they fire are minimally affected by gravity, wind speed, or anything like that. In other words, as long as they aim carefully, the bullets will generally stay on target.

Therefore, Zhang Qiu was able to take down the low-health Malfoy with a single shot from a distance of one or two thousand meters. Although luck played a large part in that, it must be said that Zhang Qiu's marksmanship was quite accurate.

Malfoy couldn't escape from that distance, so the Cream Squad sniper, who was only a few hundred meters away at a slightly lower altitude, naturally couldn't escape either. After the shot rang out, the joy on his face hadn't even faded before he turned into a white light and disappeared.

This sudden turn of events caught everyone in the Cream Squad off guard, and their next actions were completely unexpected by Ye Feng. Their first reaction after being attacked was not to retaliate, but to rush towards the giant wolf that had fallen and burst out of a box tied with ribbons at top speed.

Ye Feng: Σ(?д?lll)

Seeing this, Ye Feng momentarily forgot to fire. Zhang Qiu, however, seemed to remember something and looked up at Ye Feng, saying, "Xiao Feng, how about we wait until they get the dessert before we fire?"

Ye Feng: ...

Zhang Qiu's words left Ye Feng speechless, not because of Zhang Qiu's suggestion, but because he also recognized that this group of people were Hufflepuff.

Hufflepuff students have an inexplicable obsession with food, so eliminating them just before they get their food would be incredibly cruel. Therefore, Ye Feng nodded in agreement with Zhang Qiu's suggestion.

At that moment, an idea suddenly popped into Ye Feng's mind.

"These guys... could they be deliberately running outwards to specifically find monsters that drop food gift boxes?"

Chapter 198 Dumbledore's Allied Forces, Attack!

As is well known, Hogwarts has four houses, each with its own unique attributes. Hufflepuff students, in addition to possessing admirable qualities such as integrity, loyalty, honesty, kindness, and perseverance, are also all devoted foodies.

That's why Hufflepuff is the school that most supports Ye Feng. It can be said that at least half of the people in Hufflepuff are Ye Feng's loyal fans, so even Ye Feng couldn't bear to take away the gift boxes that were about to be in their hands under these circumstances.
