"All keep quiet for me!"

Neville's roar was mixed with the aftermath of the explosion.

This sudden scene made almost everyone present look at him in surprise.

If Neville's change from inferiority complex to self-confidence in the past can be described as "refreshing", then the scene just now was completely "subversive".

Everyone is really unimaginable.

The cowardly chubby dimple in the past had such a brutal side.

Under the influence of his power, everyone instinctively quieted down.

Even the girls who were crying a lot before were no exception.

But looking at all this, Neville, who had a stern face before, was a little more flustered and at a loss.

His throat wriggled abruptly, then quietly looked at Hermione, and said in a low voice:

"Hermione...Hermione! What now?"

Hermione was also in a state of shock, and when she heard the words, she finally reacted. After a few 'oh oh', she hurried over and looked at the crowd and said:

"I believe everyone has heard the alarm just now, and now what I need everyone to do is to stay in the common room honestly, don't run around, don't make trouble, the most important thing is, please keep quiet! Please believe me, as a prefect, I will never harm you. You may not obey my orders in the past, but today, please obey my orders! Because we, and even the whole of Hogwarts, welcome It's a huge disaster. At least until the professors have the problem completely solved, we must not hold them back any longer!"

"But...but..."

Ron stammered, and as soon as he spoke, the eyes around him immediately converged, which made Ron with bare legs a little flustered, "Hermione, are you sure we want to stay in the common room, not in the common room? Should we go to the assembly hall? I remember we usually go to the hall in case of emergency, like when the Forbidden Forest was on fire, and when Sirius broke into Hogwarts.”

As soon as Ron's voice fell, there were many echoing voices.

It's just that the voice is not very loud, and it is obvious that the speaker has not come out of the shock caused by Neville just now.

And Hermione glared at Ron fiercely.

Originally, with Neville's help, she was already trying to control the situation, but she never thought that Ron would jump out at a critical moment.

This is simply the perfect pig teammate.

But at this time, Hermione didn't have time to talk to Ron more.

She just said with an extremely ugly face:

"If it's just a general emergency, we should indeed go to the auditorium and receive the concentrated protection of the professors. But do you know what the alarm just means?"

No one spoke at all, and it was only when Hermione embarrassedly planned to announce the answer directly that Neville softly agreed.

Hermione gave Neville an intense look before continuing:

"What we heard just now is the highest level of disaster alarm! If you have read "Hogwarts - A History of the School", you should understand what it means! You must know this kind of alarm, but it was in the beginning of the Big Four back then. Created during the war at Hogwarts. The meaning of this is that Hogwarts encountered an unprecedented invasion of a powerful enemy, which is likely to bring devastating disaster to Hogwarts! At such a moment , All the protective forces in Hogwarts must be concentrated against foreign enemies, and there is no way to protect us! So please don't go out, this is the only thing we can do!"

The whole place was silent.

Hermione is quite famous throughout Hogwarts.

She is known as Miss Know-It-All, although the nickname was originally coined by Snape with a slightly derogatory overtone.

But it also proved Hermione's erudition on the other hand.

People may question Hermione's character and character, but they will never question her knowledge.

And this made everyone panic.

The girls started crying again.

But the difference from before is that this time, they were covering their mouths hard to prevent themselves from making too much noise.

It's like if your voice is louder, it will attract monsters.

The boys all lowered their heads one by one. Although they were very quiet, they all gritted their teeth and were very unwilling.

Hermione finally breathed a sigh of relief.

She felt that her eyes were a little dry and her nose was a little sour.

In fact, she also wanted to cry very much.

But as a prefect of Gryffindor, at this juncture, he can't show any cowardice.

Because if she cried too, what would the other students do?

Hermione rubbed her nose vigorously, which suppressed the sourness.

Then she turned to look in the direction of the bedroom.

There should be a lot of bedding piled up over there, maybe I should organize some people to transfer them all over.

Of course, there is also food.

In this way, we can better appease the students in these common rooms.

With that in mind, Hermione was about to set off to do it.

But at this moment, Neville, who had been silent until now, suddenly said loudly:

"Hermione, you just said that the alarm means that Hogwarts has encountered an unprecedented invasion by a powerful enemy, and is on the verge of destruction?"

Hermione nodded subconsciously.

Then, seeing Neville's resolute expression, he said:

"Then I'm sorry, Hermione, I can't follow your orders and stay here! I'm going out to help and fight with the professors!"

"Neville! You know what you're talking about..."

"The battle outside is very dangerous. If I go out, I will probably die. Of course I know that!" Neville interrupted Hermione, "But I'm a Hogwarts student! I'm a member of the DA army. , and Hogwarts, is my home, how can I sit back and watch it be invaded and not be moved!"

Hermione blushed and shouted angrily:

"You just don't understand how terrible death is! And professors...the professors don't want you to go out and mess around at this time, they are more likely to be helpful than they might be able to go out. Hope you can live safely!"

Neville ignored Hermione's words at all, and silently pulled out his wand and walked towards the exit of the lounge.

During the whole process, he did not say a word to ask others to follow him.

His figure was still a little fat, but at this moment, looking at his back, everyone present felt a powerful force.

"Wait!"

Finally, someone roared and stood up, "I'll go with you!"

Neville smiled and turned his head, but after seeing the face of the speaker, he showed a surprised expression.

Because that person was the same senior Gryffindor whose teeth were knocked out by his punch just now.

His face was even bruised at the moment.

But he heard him say fiercely:

"I will return that punch to you sooner or later, but now, as a member of the D.A. Army, I am also going to fight against foreign enemies!"

His answer suddenly changed the tense atmosphere at the scene just now.

The crowd was silent for a while.

Then a few more people roared and stood up.

Then, there were several more people.

In the end, except for some girls and students in the lower grades who were forcibly pressed down by others, the rest of the students actually stood in front of Neville.

Looking at the scene in front of her, Hermione's face turned pale, while Neville's lips were trembling slightly.

He clenched his fists tightly, resisting his inner excitement and said:

"Okay! Then let's go together and save Hogwarts!"

"etc!"

Ron's voice rang out suddenly. "Of course we're going. But before we go, do any of you know where Harry is?"

"What Harry? Wasn't he with you?"

Hermione raised an eyebrow.

"Of course not! Neville and I didn't seem to be in the dormitory when he and I came out of the dormitory!" Ron said hurriedly, "I thought he was out already? Could it be that..."

Ron's words stopped abruptly, and Hermione's expression gradually became flustered.

Both realized a terrifying possibility.

Harry he... Shouldn't he go out for a night tour again?

Still going out alone!

So his current situation is not...

Neville sighed deeply, but there was a little more determination on his face.

He stared at the people in front of him and said solemnly:

"It looks like we have one more reason to go out!"

…

After ten minutes.

The neatly dressed Gryffindors gathered in front of the entrance to the common room.

The fat lady's portrait is long gone.

The students of Gryffindor had long been surprised by this.

The fat lady is a spineless portrait. She is not the first to run away from a dangerous stomach.

As for how they would get out of the common room without Mrs. Fatty, it wasn't a big deal in everyone's opinion.

Because just as Snape had thought before.

Although there is also a lot of protective magic on the outer wall of the Gryffindor common room linking the external corridor, it is not indestructible after all.

As a result, under the joint bombardment of everyone, the front wall was completely blasted through in a short while.

And in the process, the empty portrait of the fat lady was also blown to pieces.

This was obviously revenge for the Fat Lady running away.

It's a pity that Mrs. Fat herself is probably embarrassed to come out and complain again.

"So where are we going next? Dear Commander Longbottom!"

Just after walking out of the ruined walls filled with dust, Hermione said in a deliberately accentuated tone.

This made the expression on Neville's face a little confused.

Hermione's words had a quirky quote that was too heavy.

Neville, of course, also knew that Hermione was angry that he had just fought her in the lounge.

To change to the usual, he would definitely not accept the name 'Commander Longbottom', but would directly apologize to Hermione.

But at this moment, looking at the pair of bright eyes that followed him, Neville finally took a deep breath and said:

"Go to the foyer and the auditorium first! Those two places are the last places where there may be professors, and whether we want to save Hogwarts or find Harry, we need their help!"

"Then it's decided! Let's go!"

Ron said dryly, and then took the lead in thinking of the dark and deep corridor in the distance.

Seeing this, Neville and Hermione both shook their heads, but they still chased after them.

It was clear to everyone that Ron was worried about Harry.

The crowd soon poured into the darkness under the cover of the Silent and Breathless Charm and the Fluorescent Flashing Charm.

Pure darkness is not the most terrifying.

In particular, everyone still has the sparkling spark at the tip of the staff as lighting.

Therefore, the emotions of the people walking in the dark corridor were still high. Except for Ron and Neville who were at the front, some people at the back of the team were even talking in a low voice.

However, when they walked out of the corridor and stepped on the covered bridge connecting the Gryffindor Tower to the main body of Hogwarts, all this changed.

The cold fog at midnight in winter is extremely thick, and the thin moonlight penetrates the thick fog and becomes invisible after entering the covered bridge along the arched window.

But even this dim light reflected the sparks on everyone's wands, illuminating layers of shadows.

Not far away, the beating Liu Zheng slowly stretched out his dead branches and leaves, and its strange afterimage was constantly moving in front of the crowd, as if it were a devil's claws, trying to grab the crowd.

In such an environment, everyone finally lost their previous thoughts.

Tight heartstrings made them hold their breaths and appear cautious.

However, in the main body of Hogwarts Castle, which was a little closer, bursts of dazzling cursed light from time to time, as well as screams and roars, made everyone's body already soaked with cold fear. Some heat.

That's the heat from the fire of vengeance!

Because of the bursts of brilliance and screams that erupted in the castle, UU read www. uukanshu.com represents their compatriots who are struggling!

And their duty is to support and save!

At this moment, everyone gritted their teeth.

The speed of the entire Gryffindor advancing team actually increased rather than decreased at this moment!

There is a fire in everyone's heart!

But just when he was supposed to be in a hurry, Ron, who was walking in the queue, suddenly stopped.

Nahmin behind him almost collided in a hurry.

She wanted to complain, but when she looked down along Ron's dull gaze, Hermione couldn't help covering her mouth.

I saw a shallow claw mark on the stone bridge deck under their feet.

The scratches were dark red, the blood was still wet, and there were even pieces of broken nails scattered around, and the shape didn't look like a beast, but a human.

The most important thing is that the claw marks continued intermittently into the darkness at the end of the covered bridge not far in front of them.

All this combined, and Hermione's mind even had a picture of a person being dragged into the darkness.

"Neville, what... what to do?"

Hermione murmured instinctively.

At this time, more and more students found abnormality on the ground, and from time to time, the crowd would burst out with the sound of gasping for air and suppressed exclamations.

Looking at the panic-stricken crowd, Neville gritted his teeth and responded with his own actions.

He shook his wand, extinguished the light at the tip of the wand, and walked over to the darkness resolutely.
