Chapter 416 "Dark Creatures"

In Hogwarts, Professor McGonagall had been standing at the gate and saw Charlotte and Sterling running over from a distance, but Sean did not follow behind. Her eyes froze, and she immediately knew something was wrong.

"Filius, Severus, come with me. They needed help!"

Several professors rushed out without any hesitation. When the students in the hall saw the professors in such a hurry, they all turned their heads curiously. Many even took a few steps towards the door, trying to see what was happening outside.

"Everyone be quiet. Sleeping bags have been distributed, and all of you should go to sleep." The prefects were loudly maintaining order.

Among the Ravenclaw crowd, Hermione and Daisy looked worriedly at the door of the hall. They knew that Sean had gone out just now, but what does it mean when the professors have left the auditorium in such a hurry?

Daisy grasped Hermione's hand and said in a low and worried voice, "Did something happen outside the castle?"

Hermione didn't know whether to deny it or shook her head in affirmation, "I don't know..."

Daisy poked her head to observe the prefects and the rest of the professors, her eyes rolling quickly. "Daisy, what are you doing?"

Daisy's voice was a little weak, "I just want to take a look."

"Are you looking for a chance to sneak out?" Hermione's voice became serious.

Daisy grabbed Hermione's hand with some force, "I just want to take a look. Sean is still outside."

"No, Sean is strong. He can solve the problem by himself, and if he can't solve it—" Hermione became more serious, "It proves that the problem is serious, and we can only let the professors take action. We're not someone who could help him."

"But we can't just stand by and look from a distance..." Daisy sighed and suddenly looked up at Hermione, "Don't you want to see the situation too, Hermione? Let's find a chance to sneak out. You learned the spells from Sean long ago, right? Harry will bring the invisibility cloak when he encounters this situation. I will go find him and get it."

Hermione hesitated a little but still rejected Daisy's offer, "No, what Sean can't solve must be big trouble. We can't go over and contribute to the trouble!"

"Okay..." Daisy lowered her head in disappointment and saw a disappearing figure out of the corner of her eye, "Hey, Hermione! Look!"

"What are you looking at?" Hermione looked over suspiciously, just in time to see a petite body with long silver hair hiding in the corner, "Ollivander?"

"She didn't pull the sleeping bag and hid from other people. She must also want to sneak out." Daisy said anxiously.

"How could she slip out? What is she doing?" Hermione's eyes flickered when she said this.

Daisy glanced at her, "I'll go and have a look."

"Be careful, the prefects are patrolling!" Hermione shouted in a low voice.

The two came to the corner, which was just blocked by a protruding stone pillar, and people outside could not see what was going on inside. They saw that Stephanie had disappeared, leaving only the strange fluctuations on the wall.

The two looked at each other in surprise, and Daisy whispered, "She also has the authority of the Room of Requirement! Every time Sean uses the Room of Requirement to take a shortcut, the wall moves like this!"

Sean told the two that he had some access to the Room of Requirement, but he didn't say that Stephanie had the same privilege.

This time, Hermione's eyes were even more strange. She bit her lip and lowered her head, not knowing what she was thinking.

"Hermione, are we really not going out?" Daisy looked at her eagerly.

In the end, Hermione still shook her head, "No... it's not a situation that we can't handle."

"But you can watch from the sides." Stephanie's voice suddenly sounded, startling the two of them.

A wooden door appeared on the stone wall that had returned to normal. Stephanie pushed the door open and looked at the two calmly.

"You…"

Stephanie just nodded, "Come, Sean should have shown you that we can observe the situation by hiding inside the wall."

Having said all this, Hermione and Daisy looked at each other and walked in together. The wooden door closed and disappeared.

----

"Wallup, you're still doing this?" Dawson was surprisingly annoyed by Sean's sudden smile. He licked his lips with a cruel smile, "Do you think you are Grindelwald?"

Sean just touched his ring and said calmly, "Of course I'm not. But I know your hair will probably tingle if he's in front of you."

"But it's a pity that he's not here."

Behind Sean, the chill was already piercing. The coldness that seemed to be able to deprive all happiness, warmth, and hope had swept over like waves.

But Sean didn't even glance back at the Dementors. He just stretched his arms, "Your guests are here, ready to dance?"

"They'll love you for being brave enough to be stupid." Dawson put his hand into the Mouth and showed a hint of pain.

He took out a piece of rhombic crystal, which was completely black and exuded strange and dark magic fluctuations. The strange thing was that Sean even felt a faint sense of familiarity.

"Ignorant and fearless Wallup, enjoy." Dawson clenched the crystal tightly, and after saying an unknown spell, he waved his hand suddenly and pointed at Sean.

Behind Sean, the chill soared. The Dementors, who were still floating, calmly rushed towards Sean frantically as if they saw delicious food. The crystal also stimulated the Mouth in Dawson's abdomen. Its size skyrocketed, and it opened its Mouth wide.

"Huh, you can control dementors? Interesting." Sean licked his lips.

He activated his Dark Sleeper.

Dawson was smiling cruelly and startled. He looked at Sean on the bridge ahead in disbelief. The trembling dark power was suppressed. Dawson's face turned pale, visible to the naked eye, and his legs were trembling uncontrollably.

"What the hell is he?!"

In the middle of the bridge, Sean was pinched back and forth by the Dementor and the Mouth and didn't even move. A gray mist covered his eyes, and his face was already cold. Those dark forces and all kinds of malice that the naked eye could not capture are clearly visible in Sean's eyes, and he can also command them.

He gently stretched out a finger to wave the thick dark power around him, like someone playing in the water.

"Thank you for your magic." Sean chuckled lightly.

Dawson's heart was beating violently; he didn't even know what kind of magic he was doing, and his fear was already expanding rapidly.

"Who are you?"

"Me? Don't you want to capture me alive? Don't you even know me?" Sean slowly floated up, and a churning black smoke surrounded him like thick ink that could not be melted.

"Isn't that Voldemort's spell?!" Dawson's eyes widened.

"Oh, you have connections with Voldemort." Sean's eyes turned a little colder.

Dawson took a deep breath, directly took a sip of a potion to forcefully suppress the fear that came from nowhere in his heart, held the crystal, and pointed it at Sean fiercely.

"Get him!"

The Dementors swooped even faster, and the nearest one even flew to the edge of Sean's black smoke.

"I just want to capture him alive. It doesn't matter if his soul is sucked away." Dawson's eyes were extremely cold.

In order to be safe this time, he deliberately waited until the covered bridge before taking action. The dozen or so dementors guarding the border were all surrounded by him in the barrier.

What can Sean do against more than a dozen dementors and the Mouth in this situation?

Dozens of huge dementors covered them like a black cloud, and they were madly rushing towards Sean.

"How dare you underestimate the Dementors..." Dawson licked his lips, "Suck his soul directly!"

The dementors swoop in. However, the corners of Dawson's mouth that had just been raised a little bit stiffened directly on his face.

His eyes widened, and he even forgot to breathe. The dozen or so Dementors didn't charge towards Sean as he imagined. The first Dementor to reach Sean's feet was trembling. Then, it slowly fell to the ground, motionless.

The dozen or so Dementors behind were also the same as the first one. They scrambled towards Sean and stopped making any movements. They took off their cloaks, revealing their gray, scabbed faces with hollow eye sockets and shapeless mouths.

"How is this possible..." Dawson's heart was beating violently.

Sean calmly glanced at the dozen or so individuals revealing decay and despair and waved his hand casually. The Dementors raised their heads like the most loyal dead soldiers under the king and stared at Dawson.

"How is this possible!?" Dawson seemed to be greatly angered.

On the bridge, the only thing that continued to move was the Mouth, but the closer it got to Sean, the slower it moved.

It even stopped in front of Sean.

Sean's eyes, which could see darkness and malice, looked calmly at the Mouth. In his field of vision, it was a huge ink blob, and the dark power was almost condensed into a substance.

As expected, the Mouth is inextricably linked with the Obscurus, but the malice is different. If the Obscurus represents the purest darkness, then the Mouth reveals an extremely evil greed.

However, man-made or natural, the Mouth is still a creature of dark magic, and Sean's Dark Sleeper works against it.

"You..." Dawson's fingers were trembling. He couldn't believe the scene in front of him.

The Dementor directly expressed their surrender to Sean. Sean looked at him calmly, with a strong killing intent just around the corner.

"Avada Kedavra"

The green light from the tip of the stick made Dawson's scalp tingle. He had never felt so close to death. The green light is several times thicker than the ordinary Killing Curse and moves even faster.

For the first time, Dawson was thankful that he drank an excessive amount of potion. Otherwise, he even doubted that he would not have the courage to avoid this curse.

The green light brushed across his shoulder, and a huge explosion occurred on the ground behind him. Dawson covered his left shoulder and looked back in disbelief. The Hogwarts bridge was directly blown off.

He looked at the Mouth that had been motionless, with madness in his eyes. Dawson directly plunged the crystal into his abdomen.

Blood was flowing towards the Mouth of silence, and a strange light flickered. The Mouth trembled crazily in front of Sean, and it opened its big Mouth again.

"Interesting..." Sean glanced at Dawson and waved his wand casually.

Dawson's eyes widened in despair. In mid-air, the Killing Curses followed one after another and hit on the Mouth. The magic vortex in its Mouth was constantly absorbing the curse.

He saw that Sean spread his arms gracefully with a cruel smile on his lips.

"Go, my friends."

The Basilisk, Nessie, Naja, and others crazily ran out of the ring, and different terrifying roars hit Dawson's eardrum. The Mouth seems to have the ability to be immune to magic attacks. Although it has an upper limit, it was prone to physical attacks.

They roared and rushed towards the Mouth. Dawson had inserted the crystal into his abdomen and was already limp and kneeling on the ground at this moment.

Dozens of dementors rush towards him with even more terrifying speed and feeling than before.
