The person is at Hogwarts, but the system is in Middle-earth!

Chapter 105 Savage Crash, Dobby's Going to See the World!

The moment Lucius Malfoy raised his wand, Rowe recklessly charged in.

At this distance, in this narrow corridor, any complex incantation would be too slow. Faced with such a deadly threat at close range, the body's instinctive reaction is always faster than the brain's thought.

[WARNING: High-risk enemy unit is casting a lethal spell!]

[Spell Detection: Avada Kedavra]

Solution: Interrupt the spellcasting.

Recommended Action: Charge.

"Go back to Mordor, you filthy orc!"

Rowe let out a battle cry, lowered his center of gravity, and his legs sprang to life like springs.

Under Harry's horrified gaze, Rowe, like an enraged monster, charged headlong into the proud pure-blood wizard with unstoppable momentum.

Avada

""

Before Lucius could finish his incantation, he felt as if he had been struck head-on by a charging gryphon.

"Bang!"

The elegant, noble, and arrogant Lucius Malfoy was sent flying backward like a rag doll that had been kicked. His expensive snake-headed cane flew out of his hand, spun in the air, and crashed into the wall.

As for Lucius himself, he fell heavily onto the stone steps a few meters away, and then rolled down the stairs in a disheveled state, like a rolling gourd.

[System determination: Physical interruption successful.]

[Battle Results: SavageTackle dealt a critical hit.]

[Enemy Status: Stunned, Casting Interrupted, Dignity Damaged (Extremely)]

Harry stared, mouth agape, at Rowe, still in his charge stance, then at Lucius groaning at the bottom of the stairs in the distance, utterly stunned. He had considered many ways to counter Malfoy, such as the Disarming Charm or the Armor Charm, but he had never imagined someone would directly ram him with their body.

This is so...so Muggle-like. But it's also so satisfying!

"You..." Harry stammered, "Love, are you alright?"

Rowe slowly straightened up and patted his robes. Under the system's filter, he had struck the orc chieftain in the chest with his shield, knocking him off the walls of Minas Tirith.

He turned around, his face grim.

"Never turn your back on your enemy, Harry," Rowe said in a deep voice, "especially when facing the Witch-King of Angmar."

Harry blinked. "Ang...who?"

An angry roar came from down the stairs. Lucius Malfoy struggled to his feet. His expensive robes were covered in dust, and he even had a small cut on his lip.

He looked extremely disheveled, but also extremely angry.

"How dare you!" Lucius picked up his cane, his hand trembling as he pointed it at Lowe. "How dare you attack a school board member!"

I'm going to get you fired! I'm going to send you to Azkaban!

"Don't waste your energy, Lucius."

Lowe walked to the top of the stairs and looked down at him. The torches behind him cast long shadows, which, when cast on Lucius, created a strange sense of oppression.

[Deterrence check: Passed.]

[Activate Skill: Gondor's Roar.]

"This is Hogwarts, not your Mordor headquarters."

"Your plot has been exposed, your Horcruxes have been destroyed, and your servants have left you."

He pointed to Dobby, the little elf who was clutching the dirty sock tightly, standing bravely beside Harry, his legs still trembling but his eyes unusually firm.

"You've lost, Lucius," Rowe said coldly. "Take your dark creations and get out of this castle."

Lucius stared intently at Rowe, his gaze almost murderous. But he didn't raise his wand again. Dobby was there, and that strange, savage charge had made him realize that this Hufflepuff boy didn't play by the rules.

More importantly, Dumbledore could appear at any moment.

"We'll see," Lucius said through gritted teeth. He gave Harry another vicious glare, then abruptly tossed his cloak and strode toward the door.

But he was walking too fast, and coupled with the fact that he had just fallen quite badly, his left foot tripped over his right foot, and he almost stumbled again.

"Tell your master!"

Rowe suddenly shouted at his back, so loudly that it startled Harry.

"If you dare set foot on this sacred land again, I'll hang your head on the city wall and use it as dried meat!"

Lucius's back stiffened visibly, but he didn't turn around. He simply quickened his pace and rushed out of the Hogwarts gates at almost breakneck speed.

The enemy unit has retreated.

[System report: Sauron's vanguard has been defeated.]

Battle Summary: Victory in the Battle of Hogwarts (Phase Two).

Only when the heavy door slammed shut with a "bang" did Luo Wei finally breathe a sigh of relief, and his tense shoulders relaxed.

"Phew...that was close." He wiped non-existent cold sweat from his forehead. "I almost had to use the Horn of Gondor to call for reinforcements."

Harry looked at Rowe and couldn't help but laugh. The tension from before vanished completely.

"You mean to hang his head on the city wall?" Harry asked with a laugh. "Are you serious?"

"Presence, Harry, presence is the most important thing," Rowe said seriously. "When facing an orc leader, you must overwhelm him with presence. That's called tactical intimidation."

Dobby walked over at that moment, looked up, and gazed at Rowe with admiration in his large, tennis ball-sized eyes.

"Mr. Rowe is incredibly strong!" Dobby shrieked. "Dobby has never seen a wizard send his wicked master flying that far! It's like...like some powerful magical creature!"

Luo Wei's lips twitched slightly. Was that a compliment?

[Reward Obtained: Combat Skill - Savage Charge (Level 1)]

[Description: A charge that concentrates all of one's strength into a single point. While the posture isn't exactly graceful, it's incredibly effective against mages who just stand there casting spells. It also has a powerful knockback effect.]

[Note: The real Maiar doesn't need a wand; her body is her strongest weapon.]

Rowe looked at the system panel with satisfaction. This skill is very useful; it might come in handy when playing Quidditch in the future (if he doesn't get caught for fouls).

"Alright, Dobby," Harry said gently to the house-elf, "you're free. Where do you plan to go now?"

Dobby's eyes shone even brighter: "Dobby wants to see the world, Harry Potter! Dobby wants to see what a world without a bad master is like! But Dobby will never forget the kindness of Harry Potter and Mr. Rowe!"

After saying that, he bowed deeply again, his nose almost touching the floor, and then disappeared into the air with a loud "crack".

Only Harry and Rowe remained in the corridor.

In the distance, the first rays of morning sunlight streamed through the windows, dispelling the last trace of gloom in the castle.

"Is it over?" Harry asked softly, as if he still couldn't quite believe it.

"It's over." Luo Wei looked at the ray of sunlight. The dark clouds that had been hovering over the castle in the system's view finally dissipated completely, replaced by a peaceful golden light.

"Come on, Harry." Rowe patted Harry on the shoulder, flashing a bright smile. "I'm sure Dumbledore has prepared a delicious breakfast for us. And..."

He paused, his tone becoming somewhat expectant.

"I have a feeling Hermione will wake up soon. After all, the petrified elven princess should awaken to the sound of victory horns."
