Harry Potter: I started signing in from Diagon Alley

And he is also a complete physical patron saint!

Recalling his difficult experience in learning the Patronus Charm, Lu Ping couldn't help but feel a tremor in his heart.

Is that human being?

Hearing Harry say that Eric used the Flying Curse in front of him and praise Eric's magical talent, Lupine was a little bit disapproving.

After all, Harry didn't grow up in the wizarding world, so his understanding of magic is very partial.

If you want to fool Harry, there are many ways.

Even if Lupine now wanted to use other spells to achieve similar effects to the Flying Charm in front of Harry, it would not be too difficult.

That's why Lupine was so wary of Eric in the first place.

He really had no reason to trust Eric, someone who appeared out of nowhere and claimed to know the situation about Blake.

But now, the Patronus that Eric summoned could not be faked.

Whether it's the pure white smoky texture, or the soul-related magical aura continuously transmitted from the patron saint, it proves that this is indeed the patron saint summoned by the patron saint spell.

It is also the patron saint of Eric himself.

In the raging storm, Lu Ping opened his mouth wide and watched this scene dumbly.

Standing beside Eric was a huge bird of prey, with a sharp beak, thick wings, and feathers that were as sharp as steel all over the body.

Standing alone, he was already taller than Lupine, and one could only feel the incomparable aura of him.

It's no wonder that the intruding Dementor couldn't even withstand a single blow, and was repelled immediately.

"This... is this your patron saint, Eric?"

Lupine said dazedly.

Eric chuckled and said nonchalantly, "Please forgive me, professor, it's also the first time I've seen it."

It wasn't just Lupine who was shocked. Hermione and Ron, who were still in the compartment, also opened their mouths, looking at Eric and the giant eagle beside him in horror.

"What's that? Professor! What the hell is that?"

Ron screamed while holding the fainted Harry in his arms.

For Ron and Hermione's amazement, Eric did not explain too much, but smiled at Lupine and said: "Since I have used this spell, leave the outside to me, professor, you Take care of them."

"I'm going to communicate with the dementors."

After saying that, looking at the messy carriage compartment, Eric turned around without waiting for Lupine to object, picked up an item on the ground, used his wand to command his giant eagle patronus and rushed out the door. .

Lupine was in a hurry and wanted to stop Eric, but he waved his hand and looked at Harry who was unconscious on the ground beside him, but he didn't yell after all.

Before boarding this train, Lupine of course knew in advance that the Dementors would enter the train for inspection.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have stood up in advance after noticing the change in temperature, pointing his wand at the door of the compartment.

But the original plan was to wait for the train to arrive at Hogsmeade station before letting the dementors get on the train, so as to ensure that no Black mixed in with the crowd.

Unexpectedly, these Dementors were so crazy that they dared to temporarily block the Hogwarts Express, and on the pretext of searching Black, they forced their way through the blockage and boarded the train.

Dementors feed on happy emotions.

This train was full of students looking forward to returning to Hogwarts.

With such a big target, dementors, creatures without much rationality, did not choose to let it go after all.

Looking at Eric's back with the patron saint, which seemed to be a matter of course, the corners of Lupine's mouth couldn't help twitching.

communicate?

You call this communication?

How can anyone bring a Patronus to communicate with a dementor?

It was too late to stop Eric, Lupine could only shake his head helplessly, and settled the situation in the compartment.

On the other hand, Eric did not leave a trace of affection in his strikes.

As soon as Eric stepped out of the cubicle, he saw a scene that made the Ministry of Magic look pale.

The carriage they were in was relatively at the back, and after the train was stopped by the dementors, they were the first batch to encounter the intrusion of the dementors.

In addition to the dementor that entered Eric's compartment, at this moment, there were several dementors wandering around in each compartment in the carriage.

Their purpose, of course, is not Black, but the students.

To be precise, it was the positive emotions that pervaded the students.

The dementors did not dare to physically harm the students, nor did they dare to ask for too much.

After all, they apparently only belong to the Azkaban guards of the Ministry of Magic.

But even passing each student on purpose was enough to keep the dementors satisfied.

Because people who are approached by dementors will immediately suck away all happy and positive emotions from them.

Even if it is not as serious as the "Dementor's Kiss" given by the Dementor, it will suddenly fall into depression.

These emotions are excellent food for dementors, and they are also nutrients to maintain their survival.

At this moment, with a train full of "food", how could the dementors not be excited?

How could it be possible to bear it?

Seeing those dementors keep coming and going in and out of the compartment, a smile gradually formed on the corner of Eric's mouth.

The giant eagle beside him felt his master's emotions, and he couldn't wait even more.

"Go ahead, then, and crush them."

Eric stood there and waved his wand, and the pure white giant eagle next to him screamed and rushed out like lightning, setting off gusts of wind and shattering all the car windows along the way.

Chapter 39

For all the dementors who chose to enter this carriage, today is really not their lucky day.

Originally, as they expected, this foolproof inspection was unexpectedly met with resistance.

Of course, the resistance couldn't be said to be inexplicable. Why didn't the dementors know that such behavior was something wizards couldn't tolerate.

The Ministry of Magic certainly doesn't allow them to break into the Hogwarts Express without permission.

However, it has been a long time since the dementors have had such excellent "food".

The desire for food is a biological instinct.

So, when the officials of the Ministry of Magic were not paying attention, the dementors actually took the opportunity to stop the train!

The origin of dementors is complicated.

According to legend, they were created by a dark wizard using some kind of mysterious magic.

Dementors are disembodied, magical creatures that feed off purely on the emotions of others.

But at the same time, they also cooperate with the Ministry of Magic and are responsible for managing the jailers of Azkaban.

Where is Azkaban?

That's a prison.

But Azkaban, as a prison, was not built by the Ministry of Magic.

In fact, Azkaban existed in the first place.

Azkaban was originally an abandoned castle on a remote island with a very strange internal structure.

Azkaban is surrounded by the sea, and only a narrow path leads to the land.

As long as you control this road, you are equivalent to controlling Azkaban.

From a military perspective, Azkaban is easy to defend and difficult to attack, so it can be said that it is naturally suitable for use as a prison.

And before Azkaban came under the control of the Ministry of Magic, the dementors lived there.

Azkaban was originally the home of the Dementors and where they were created.

As for the wizards discovering Azkaban, that was later.

When Azkaban was rediscovered by the world.

The entire castle is infested with hungry dementors.

There is also the corpse of a dark wizard, and the aura of black magic all over the island.

Creatures like dementors cannot be destroyed, nor can they be purified.

No one knows how they were made.

They have rudimentary intelligence and understanding, and can communicate, but most of the time, their behavior is governed purely by instinct.

That instinct is to continuously absorb the positive emotions of all living creatures around you as nutrients for survival.

The most terrifying thing is that on this basis, the dementors can also reproduce themselves.

They are like wild animals, constantly eating and multiplying to multiply their populations.

By the time the Ministry of Magic found them, they were too numerous to be controlled by force.

Because of this, there is only one way wizards can think of to cooperate with dementors, and that is to transform Azkaban Castle into a prison, so that dementors who are naturally accustomed to living in resentment can act as prisons. of guards.

The most serious punishment that the wizards can think of has also become sending the prisoners to Azkaban and asking the dementor to give them a kiss.

Let the prisoner lose all hope in the dementors' kisses day after day.

Of course, this is not only for serving a sentence, but also provides a stable "food" for the dementors to facilitate the control of the dementors.

If not.

If such a large number of dementors decided to leave Azkaban one day, it would cause even more headaches for the Ministry of Magic.

God knows how much damage they could do to magical society.

And those who can be sent to Azkaban by the wizards will not be happy at that time.

It is even less likely to have too many positive emotions.

After all, Dementors have a reputation.
