171 The Dragon Soaring In The Sky, Dumbledore's Shock!

Every time a dementor appears, it is accompanied by a chill.

Like the glass of the Hogwarts Express, with a large number of dementors pouring into the field, even the drizzle that fell from the sky was frozen.

This chill intensified the inner fear of the students. However, when the loud dragon roared, all the chill was pushed away and a warm current full of happiness enveloped everyone present.

When the chill faded, everyone looked up at the sky.

It was a snake-like eastern dragon.

It kept growing as it advanced, and in no time it was nearly 50 meters long.

When the dementors met their natural enemy, they turned around and flew into the sky.

This made Harry, who was originally being pursued, breathe a sigh of relief.

At the last moment before he passed out, he saw the huge dragon chasing the dementors, then it unexpectedly swallowed one of them.

"WOW~"

Sounds of amazement came from the students who hadn't evacuated yet, even the parents who came to watch the game were the same.

They had never seen such a powerful Patronus.

What surprised them even more was that the Patronus Charm was actually cast by a third-year student.

Many adult wizards felt a bit ashamed of this.

"Look, that dragon is killing the dementors!"

The sudden exclamation made everyone's eyes turn to the sky again.

It's a well known fact that the Patronus Charm is one of the oldest and most powerful defensive spells in the wizarding world.

Note that it is a purely defensive magic spell that has the effect of resisting dementors and driving away lethifolds, but no lethality.

But today, the patronus cast by Lucas has subverted everyone's perception of this spell.

They saw the patronus dragon soaring in the sky, driving the dementors to one place with its huge body.

The sharp claws on the abdomen would tear the dementors to pieces with each attack.

In the blink of an eye, a dozen dementors were reduced to pieces.

Watching the tattered black cloth fall from the sky, Dumbledore came back to himself.

"Lucas, show mercy!"

Just as he finished speaking, he saw Lucas lower his wand and the mysterious and beautiful eastern dragon in the sky also disappeared.

[Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining a new achievement: Dementor Killer I; the host has killed 16 dementors in total, each rewarded with 200 achievement points; total reward: 3200 achievement points.]

Hearing the system prompt, Lucas looked at the dementors who had fled to the sky with a hint of regret in his eyes.

If he had known that Dementors had such generous rewards, he wouldn't have listened to Dumbledore just now.

So much so that when Lucas looked at the old bee, there was a hint of complaint in his eyes.

As for why Dementors have such a high reward, Lucas thought for a moment and understood.

First of all, the wizarding world doesn't have any known spells to kill dementors.

According to the book "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them", the Patronus Charm is the only spell known to expel magical creatures such as dementors.

In addition, the number of dementors is scarce.

Because the dementor was created by the dark wizard Ekrizdis and the method for their creation was lost after his death.

This also resulted in only a hundred or so dementors in the whole of England.

Sighing regretfully, Lucas retracted his wand back into his robe.

At this time, Dumbledore also lowered Harry's body to the ground.

This old man once again proved his strength. With such a long distance, the speed drop was slowed down without a wand, and even though Lucas can also do it.

But using the spell at such a long distance, Lucas felt that he was not that good at it. At least not until he breaks through the quasi-legendary level.

It has nothing to do with spell proficiency or anything. It is simply that the magic power is not strong enough.

After Harry landed safely, Dumbledore turned to look at the boy behind him.

"What a powerful Patronus, Mr. Grindelwald saved his classmates again in a crisis, I want to add 20 points to Slytherin."

"Thank you, Professor."

There was warm applause all around.

The parents applauded for the perfect cooperation between the old and the young.

They also only saw Dumbledore and Lucas smiling, but what they didn't notice is that there was no smile in the eyes of the two of them.

Especially Dumbledore, he looked at Lucas more defensively.

Only Professor Snape, who was sitting not far away, saw all this in his eyes.

Snape frowned slightly. He knew Lucas had Dumbledore's attention.

The success of the plan depends on his performance next.

Just at this time, Lee Jordan's exasperated voice came from the microphone.

"As if it wasn't bad enough, Cedric Diggory, Hufflepuff's Seeker, caught the Golden Snitch."

"He closed out the game, Hufflepuff got the win, but I think this is a little unfair."

"Lee Jordan!" Professor McGonagall warned from behind.

Lee had no choice but to announce to the audience again that Hufflepuff had won.

The crowd dispersed and the Quidditch pitch was deserted again.

In the staff stand, the figure of Professor Snape came up from the stairs.

"Headmaster, Mr. Potter has been sent to the infirmary. As for the dementors, because of Mr. Grindelwald's patronus, they have fled from the school grounds at this moment."

"According to my estimation, these dementors should not enter the school again, after all, they encountered an unprecedented crisis this time."

Dumbledore looked at the gloomy sky and it took a long time before he said softly, "Thank you, Severus."

"Hmph~!" Professor Snape turned to leave.

What he had to say has been said so there's no need to stay here with the old man.

"Severus, how is Lucas doing?"

Snape stopped in his tracks but he didn't turn around to face the other person.

"Headmaster, I think you are just thinking wildly. Mr. Grindelwald hasn't done anything lately."

"Really, Severus? I understand the kid has a lot of respect for you, but we're trying to keep him from going astray."

Snape sneered and said, "Since the Headmaster understands, just find someone else to do it. I think that the werewolf is a very good choice for such a task."

Dumbledore turned and walked over to Professor Snape and said with a hint of tension in his eyes.

"Severus, Remus won't be able to stay at Hogwarts for long, and now has reached a critical moment!"

"You heard Professor Trelawney's prophecy in the Chamber of Secrets last year, didn't you? The Dark Lord is coming back, and a new leader is coming."

"I think the leader is probably Harry, so we can't make any mistakes at this time."

"Lucas is excellent, very excellent, but when he mentioned the Horcrux just now, I saw desire in his eyes."

"We can't let another young man with so much talent go astray. Believe me, Lucas may be a good helper for Harry in the future."

"Severus, he is Harry, Lily's son, please help him!"

Snape closed his eyes, misleading Dumbledore into thinking he was sad to hear Lily's name.

In fact, he was just afraid of what the perceptive Dumbledore would see in his eyes.

Waiting until his thoughts calmed down, Snape opened his eyes again, sarcasm evident in them.

"Mr. Potter? The new leader? Huh~"

For Dumbledore's statement, his heart matched his expression, full of sarcasm.

He preferred to believe that cunning boy Lucas would be the new leader.

He didn't believe that the arrogant Potter could lead the crowd to defeat Voldemort.

Reminding what Lucas told him, Snape sighed, "I intercepted some of Mr. Grindelwald's letters."

"One was addressed to the village of Budleigh Babberton."

"Merlin, I remember an old friend living there." Dumbledore's tone was a bit distressed.

"Professor Horace Slughorn."

Snape nodded slightly: "Yes, that letter was addressed to him."

"Professor Slughorn is very knowledgeable, Mr. Grindelwald must have wanted to know something from him."

Dumbledore nodded, and quickly looked at Snape: "What about the other letters?"

"There is another letter, asking his subordinates to investigate a place, Little Hangleton, the Gaunt family."

"Gaunt?" Dumbledore was taken aback.

He knew very well what the Gaunts stood for.

Fighting wits with Voldemort for so many years, Dumbledore already knew the Dark Lord's details thoroughly.

"Well, thank you, Severus."

Professor Snape asked nothing.

As a seasoned spy, he knows what to ask and what is better to not know.

Waiting until Snape left, Dumbledore looked up at the sky again, and muttered to himself, "The Gaunt family."

…

Infirmary.

Because of a Quidditch match it became overcrowded.

Some students have a cold.

Some others were injured during the game.

This includes Harry Potter, the savior.

Looking at the broomstick that was destroyed by the Whomping Willow, Harry was very sad.

This broom was a gift from Professor McGonagall.

Accompanying him on the quidditch pitch for three years.

"Harry, don't be sad, trust me, you'll get a better broom."

Ron's reassurance didn't help.

at this time.

Next to him came the strange voice of some Hufflepuff players.

"It's what he deserves, he didn't go to rescue others when he saw them fall, he only thought about winning, and the broken broom was Merlin's punishment for him."

"What are you talking about?" Ron snapped.

Gryffindor's team now also glared at the neighbors.

Cedric, who also came to the infirmary for an examination, pulled at his team member's clothes, signaling them not to make trouble.

"If you guys continue to make noise like this, leave the infirmary immediately."

Madam Pomfrey suddenly appeared between the two groups of people.

The two groups snorted unconvinced, but still stopped the fight.

This seems to be the case.

But in fact, the rumors about the savior's unscrupulous means for victory have already been spread by the badgers.

Harry Potter and Lucas Grindelwald were once again being compared.

But no matter where you look at it, Harry the not so Savior Potter had no chance of winning.

Not to mention that what Lucas did was equivalent to saving everyone's life.

Some extreme people even blamed Harry for being reckless and leading the dementors to the stadium.

And there are quite a few people who support this statement. This made the accusations against Harry keep increasing.

The following month Harry kept receiving people's accusations left and right, making him miserable.

Until Christmas came.
