From Karma Taj to Hogwarts

Chapter 177 Disaster of Fire Ash Snake

"Ashe snakes are born in magical flames. They will emerge from the ashes of the fire, swim to dark corners to lay eggs, and leave a trail of ash behind them. Their lifespan is only one hour, and they lay their eggs in hidden places. After being laid down, the body will be broken into pieces and turned into dust. The eggs of the fire ash snake are red and have extremely strong heat."

——So preached in "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" written by Newt.

That gray-white "earthworm" was actually a fire-ash snake that had been cursed by Professor Kettleburn.

When Professor Bierley was about to stop the duel between the two actors, the flashing red light in its eyes suddenly shook violently.

Then, the huge ash snake rushed uncontrollably towards the bottom of the stage and crawled towards where a group of Slytherin's junior wizards were gathering.

Sivan saw that Lestrange and Avery were sitting in the crowd talking loudly, confidently telling others that this was one of the items for the Christmas dinner, so as to pretend that they knew...

Seeing these two people, Xiven subconsciously glanced at Professor Slughorn's right side, only to find that Riddle had disappeared without knowing when.

"Professor, where is Riddle?" Xiwen was stunned for a moment and asked doubtfully.

"Tom just said he wanted to go to the bathroom and left the auditorium early." Professor Slughorn took out his wand and said to Sivan with a solemn expression. "Now it seems that he left at the right time and just escaped this danger."

Xiwen frowned, always feeling that something was wrong.

However, now is not the time for doubts. The Ash Snake moved quickly and quickly crawled in front of Lestrange and Avery. Looking at the ugly face and ferocious eyes of the big snake, the two of them showed expressions of panic and fear, no longer self-righteously thinking that this was an exciting banquet event.

"Sylvanus, look what you did again?!" Principal Dippet suddenly stood up and roared loudly. "If you can't control your magical animals, don't bring them into the castle!"

The old principal raised his wand and pointed the shrinking spell at the ash snake, hoping to reduce the danger of the ash snake to a normal level.

However, at this moment, a strange "hissing" sound came from nowhere.

After hearing this weird sound, the red light in the fire-ash snake's eyes immediately fluctuated. Immediately, its entire body suddenly exploded before Principal Dippet's shrinking spell flew in, turning into a blazing fire that illuminated the entire auditorium!

Professor Mellors and Professor Slughorn had long been on guard against the Ash Snake getting out of control. They chanted spells at the same time and covered the little wizards with a thick transparent barrier, blocking the Fire Ash Snake from exploding. impact.

The auditorium's decoration, however, was not so lucky.

The twelve surrounding Christmas trees and the many mistletoes in the sky were ignited in an instant, burning into a raging fire. The wooden floor in the auditorium was also quickly invaded by flames, and the fire gradually showed a tendency to spread to the entire auditorium.

As misfortunes never come singly, Professor Bierley originally rushed onto the stage and stood between the two actors in an attempt to stop the duel between them. But the violent explosion of the Ash Snake attracted his attention, and he was accidentally hit in the head by two spells from the Unlucky Knight and the actor playing Amata.

Most of the spells cast by the senior students at Hogwarts are no longer weak, not to mention that these two actors are already excellent. Professor Bierly fell to the ground in pain, and his head grew a full circle!

"professor!"

"Professor Beerley!"

The two actors realized that they had gotten into great trouble, so they finally stopped their love-hate duel and helped Professor Bierley up from the ground.

Under such circumstances, the entire auditorium turned into a mess!

Some of the faculty and students in the auditorium were struggling to put out the fire, some were constantly dodging towards places without flames, and some were crowded together in confusion and rushed towards the entrance of the auditorium...

"Calm down, everyone, it's just a small fire!" Principal Dippet stepped on the table and shouted condescendingly. "Now, all students should stop rioting."

"The seniors use the Iron Armor Curse and the Water and Fire Invulnerability Curse to protect themselves and the surrounding junior wizards. The junior wizards move closer to the senior wizards in an orderly manner!"

Under the rational arrangement of Principal Dippet, the situation finally improved.

The professors used Flame-Freezing Charm and Water-making Charm to suppress the fire in the auditorium, and gradually put out the fire caused by the Ash Snake.

"Huma, help the injured!" After putting out the fire, Principal Dippet walked down from the table and looked at Mrs. Dallaire and said.

Mrs. Dallaire had just finished dealing with the effects of the pimple curse on Asha, and was diagnosing the situation with Professor Bierley. After hearing Principal Dippet's instructions, she nodded slightly.

Everyone in the auditorium was frightened. Fortunately, most people had experience in dealing with the castle's paralysis last year, so they were not too overwhelmed. Even the first-year wizards who had not experienced last year's incident also contributed to the restoration of the auditorium under the leadership of their seniors.

After dealing with the impact of the fire, everyone gradually calmed down. Principal Dippet ordered the prefects who were still in the school to lead the students back to the common room.

Today's Christmas party ended in a mess.

Xiwen did not follow the prefect back to the common room. He now had a doubt in his mind and planned to find Riddle to ask for details.

However, when passing a half-burnt Christmas tree, he suddenly saw a faint red light under the tree. Looking back to other parts of the auditorium, you can see that most corners are emitting a red light like a flame.

"Be careful, there may be an ash snake running out and laying eggs!" Professor Kettleburn also discovered this scene at the same time and shouted from the side of the stage. "Freeze them with a freezing spell!"

At this time, the red light emitted by the fire-gray snake eggs became more and more obvious, which was a sign that they were about to hatch new fire-gray snakes. Once so many little ash snakes are hatched, the auditorium will be engulfed in fire from all directions!

However, there were so many ash snake eggs that the professors had no time to get rid of all the eggs in a short time. They could only use freezing spells to freeze a very small number, and then watched helplessly as many ash snakes turned red. The egg hatches outward and a new Fire Ash Snake emerges!

Seeing that the situation was not good, Xiwen gritted his teeth secretly, and then pressed his hand heavily on the ground——

The icy tendrils of Iktalon!

Where each red fire-gray snake egg was located, several ice-blue tentacles emerged from the ground out of thin air. They wrapped around the snake eggs that were about to hatch, freezing them all.

A disaster disappeared in an instant...
