Chapter 134 17. The beast of doom at Hogwarts emerges
The time has come to the last day of the trade fair, which is the third day since Team K came to the Star Castle. After the last trade fair this morning, most of the pioneer team will leave here and return to their base world.
Everyone is very busy on weekdays, and the next time we get together will have to wait until three months later.
Therefore, many teams will hold social gatherings in the castle today, but no one will invite newcomers like Team K. This industry is not only complicated, but also a "talk based on your face" circle.
It's hard to get ahead without making some career.
"Drink it."
Mason, who had put on a full suit, picked up three tubes of polyjuice potion and handed them to the three android guards brought over by Judy.
The three of them looked at Mason expressionlessly, not reaching out to take it at all.
Judy, who was chatting with Barbara and Selina next to her, snapped her fingers, and then the three loyal androids took the potion and drank it in one gulp.
"They are robots, will your potion really work on them?"
The same tech girl dressed in chic leather clothes chewed gum and asked curiously.
Mason shrugged and said:
"As long as they have 'vitality', it will definitely take effect, and I am lucky that the androids you use are very advanced. Are they from a place called 'Detroit'?"
"How do you know? They are the unexpected gains of the Afterlife team during a certain pioneering mission."
Judy didn't hide it either.
She looked at the changes in her three android guards and said to the people next to her:
"It was a world dominated by technology. The power rating was not high but it was quite good in a D-class world. For a period of time, it was the base world of the Afterlife Team.
It's a pity that it disappeared in the end because of the production of a special metal.
We moved the last survivors of that world to safety before it was completely dismantled, and these loyal android warriors were willing to work for us.
The Afterlife Squad is an elite mode.
Apart from the main team members, the remaining logistics and support tasks are all completed by bionic people. I think you guys should too. Wow! They have changed! ”
Amidst Judy's exclamations, her three android guards showed pained expressions and covered their stomachs.
Then in a few seconds, their appearance changed rapidly, and their cheeks melted and were reshaped into the appearance of Mason, Er Tong and Zha Kang.
This made the technology girl from Night City sigh with emotion.
Exclaiming that unscientific magic is completely invincible.
"Put on our clothes, and then you will play the role of the three of us."
Mason pointed to the three sets of clothes on the sofa, then handed a box containing six polyjuice potions to Selina, and said:
"The commercial representatives of the Amaterasu team will be here soon. Your task is to hold them back until they are done. Zha Kang will notify you and then detain them."
"Yes, I understand."
Catwoman showed a confident smile, and Barbara nodded.
But Judy was still curious, she frowned and said:
"How did they provoke you and make you do such a dangerous thing in the Star Castle? I have never heard of anyone who would dare to commit murder in this place?"
"It's not because no one has done it before, Miss Judy."
Constantine walked out of the inner room with the grimoire in his arms, holding a cigarette in his mouth and said to the technology girl in a long voice:
"I dare not think in that direction purely because of my fixed mindset. The surveillance system of this castle is indeed very complete, but you have to admit that it also has loopholes that can be exploited.
As for why we want to kill people for nothing”
Zha Kang shrugged and said:
"Our dear captain said those neon people must die. Is this reason enough?"
"Ka"
The sound of a pistol being loaded sounded from behind Mason and Zha Kang, and Ergu, wearing a red helmet, came out fully armed. He flexed his fingers and said coldly:
"Should I wait here for you to finish chatting, or should I go alone? I think I am enough by myself. Really, you will only waste time by following me."
"Let's go!"
Mason stopped talking and threw the invisibility cloak to Zha Kang and Er Tong.
He picked up the black gentleman's hat and put it on his head. When they went out, Judy hesitated, took a pink pistol from her waist and said to Mason:
"Bring this with you, you don't seem to have enough firepower."
Mason did not refuse the offer.
He took the pink, girly pistol, and the information label popped up immediately:
Lizzy
Quality: legendary engineering creation·immortal craftsmanship
Weapon characteristics: Precision·High-speed charging·Multiple shots·Obstacle penetration
Producer: Judy Alvarez
Item description: Once the pink girl's heart is stained with blood, it will become a terrifying thing.
"As expected of the veteran pioneers, even the guns of the logistics staff are legendary weapons."
Mason felt a little sad.
He gave Judy a grateful smile, inserted the lady-style gun into the weapon slot on his waist, and threw his crit revolver into the second barrel.
Then the three men disappeared through the door.
Ten minutes later, there was a knock on the door. Barbara went to open the door and found two people standing outside the door, a woman and a man, both with oriental faces.
They took the initiative to introduce themselves:
"We are the commercial representatives of Team Amaterasu. Captain Mason-san of Team K has previously reached a long-term supply agreement for pharmaceuticals with our team members.
We're here to discuss business details. ”
"Of course, welcome."
Barbara immediately opened the door and let them in. Catwoman made a "please" gesture as a representative. Under the gazes of Mason, Ertun and Zha Kang with indifferent faces, she brushed her hair and looked at each other generously. Two of them said:
"I am in charge of this business negotiation, two distinguished guests.
This is Miss Judy from the Afterlife Team and a friend of the K Team. We specially invited her to be a witness to this transaction.
As a fledgling pioneer, Team K not only hopes to obtain a large amount of medicine from you, but also hopes to cooperate with you in various aspects.
Come on, don't be formal, let's talk slowly. ”
Everyone sat down in a peaceful atmosphere. Barbara, who served tea, turned around and pressed lightly on her Bat watch.
At the same time, the three Masons who were working as organized gangsters outside the castle received the signal. The three looked at each other and put on the prepared masks to re-enter the Star Castle.
Relying on the information Constantine obtained from his vampire "bedmate", they arrived at Area C on the third floor of the castle.
Zha Kang and Er Tong were hidden in the invisibility cloak, leaving only Mason walking to the door of the Amaterasu team's station.
He reached out and knocked on the door.
The sorting hat on his head shook at this moment, just like the excitement of the Avengers before execution.
The next moment, the door opened. Just like Judy before, she just opened the door a crack and looked at the stranger in front of her with a pair of vigilant eyes.
"I have a treasure from your world that I want to trade with you!"
Mason is no nonsense either.
He took out a box with his backhand and put it in the palm of his hand. He opened it under the gaze of the eyes in front of him, and a ball of blood-colored irregular crystals was displayed in the velvet black cushion.
The appearance of this thing immediately made the people behind the door widen their eyes.
"The Philosopher's Stone?"
He exclaimed and wanted to reach out to take it but Mason pushed it away.
The young man pretended to be dissatisfied and scolded:
"Do you understand the rules? Let your captain come forward, this is big business!"
"Who is your Excellency?"
The man behind the door became obviously wary and asked.
Mason shrugged, introduced himself and said:
"Commercial representative of the Six-Headed Snake Team, you can call me Three-Headed Dog. Our captain is the famous Mr. Sandstorm. Have you heard of this name?"
"Your Excellency, wait a moment."
The door slammed shut, and the people inside seemed to need some time to discuss.
Mason waited patiently for nearly a minute before the door opened again.
This time it was welcome.
Through the door, Mason could see an old man wearing neon traditional white clothing sitting in the center of this Japanese-style resident room, holding a black cane and a golden sword.
There were five people standing around him, six including the one who opened the door.
The robes they wore were all white without exception.
"That's him!"
The sound of the Sorting Hat's gnashing of teeth rose in Mason's heart, with a hint of ill-concealed resentment, and it said:
"The contemporary principal of the Shinto Magic Institute and a second-level member of the Merlin Order. He was once respectfully called the 'Tengu', which is a sacred beast in Japanese mythology.
But look at the white robes they wear that represent a departure from the wizarding code!
These damn traitors know what scandalous things they have done, kill them! Mason, the monsters of Hogwarts, kill them all! ”
Mason calmly showed a gentle smile to everyone in front of him. He held the box containing the magic stone and walked into the room. The door closed the next moment.
"Your team entered a ruined Hogwarts?"
The great wizard Tengu did not exchange any pleasantries. The serious and gloomy old man asked in a deep voice:
"I'm curious if you found anything else somewhere?"
"Of course, respected great wizard."
Mason performed the standard wizard apprentice etiquette to the great wizard in front of him. He placed the magic stone on the table in front of him and said softly:
"Our team not only found the magic stone in the ruins, but also found another thing that you will definitely be interested in, and I hope to use them in exchange for something expensive from the Amaterasu team."
As he spoke, the young man took off his hat and placed it next to the magic stone.
Under the gaze of the neon traitor wizards, the black Panama hat quickly dissipated, revealing the miserable current situation of the Sorting Hat.
These two legendary magic items surprised the members of the Amaterasu team, and the great wizard Tengu even let out a deep old man's laugh.
He obviously recognized the Sorting Hat and was very satisfied with the items in this transaction, so he asked:
"So, young man, what do you want from us in exchange?"
Mason shrugged.
He raised his head with a smile and said:
"Of course it's your life."
"Boom"
The large-scale magic dedicated to suppressing magic spreads in all directions with the screaming Sorting Hat as the center, like an invisible heavy hammer hitting several unsuspecting wizards.
The aftermath of that magic was so intense that the assassins wearing invisibility cloaks behind Mason were affected to remove their disguises in an instant.
But Zha Kang, who was already prepared, drank Petri's magic potion and summoned the fire of purgatory with his veins bulging.
As he sang hoarsely, his eyes turned into strange burning green runes, and bursts of scorching heat caused the simple paper paintings on the Japanese-style building to ignite.
The Amaterasu team did not expect that someone would dare to commit murder in the Star Castle, so they reacted a little slower.
But for high-level wizards, the magical skill of transfiguration, a short-distance flash, has almost become a function. When they realize that danger is approaching, everyone pulls out their exquisite or ferocious wands.
However, Er Tong, a killer trained by Batman and the League of Assassins, was obviously faster in drawing his sword in this closed environment.
Two black blaster cannons were drawn out, and while the savage collision knocked over the wizard in front of him, a dance of bullets also erupted in this scorching place.
The single-head bullet with the cursed effect instantly pierced the abdomen of a female wizard under the fatal shooting skills of two barrels with at least level 6, and forced the wizards to use disembodiment to scurry around the room.
Then six bottles thrown everywhere by Mason hit the ground and walls, and the green fear gas quickly vaporized in the high temperature caused by Zha Kang.
Team K, who was wearing gas armor during the chaos, was not affected.
But the same cannot be said for the neon wizards.
This thing is a "concentrated liquid" carefully prepared by Mason for today's raid. He is sure that even a man with a will as strong as a god like the master will be affected by inhaling this concentration of fear gas.
In just an instant, the entire resident room turned green, and the influence of the fear gas took effect almost instantly.
The wizards screamed, obviously being affected by their thinking and sanity, and there were painful screams from time to time during the deadly and fast pursuit of Erbang.
Dangerous green beams of light were shooting out.
Avada Kedavra was thrown out as if it was free of money, and the Fire Curse with blue temptation was thrown at Mason in front of him by the great wizard Tengu.
The young man opened his penguin umbrella and the magic inscriptions on the umbrella shone to block the blazing flames. As he retreated, he drew out the exquisite flintlock gun from his waist and fired a shot at the spell-casting Tengu in front of him.
Even the great wizard couldn't change his position when casting the spell. This bullet passed through the blue fire and hit the great wizard's body.
But the soft lead bullet did not cause any damage, it only tore the Tengu's robes and did not even penetrate his body, and the gloomy neon old man pulled out the cherry wood wand with a sinister smile.
The green life-threatening light is about to fall on Mason.
Then
Then he heard the sound of the sea.
Amidst the sound of the surging sea and the reverberation of the waves, the vulgar pirate song was clearly transmitted to the ears of everyone present like a phantom sound.
Mason raised his head and saw the shadow of a tattered ghost ship traveling through the void guided by the lead bullets fired from Old Teague's cigarette lighter.
He could even see the howling and drinking pirates on the shabby ship that marked the "Bard".
On the bow of the ship, the majestic old Teague swung forward with a pirate knife in his hand. The illusory ghost ship was driven by the sea water and hit the big man who was casting a spell like a heavy hammer. On the wizard Tengu.
Amidst the terrifying loud noise, the double impact on the body and will triggered a glacier frenzy, which froze the great wizard Tengu and the three wizards around him in the ice in just an instant.
Even if the Tengu breaks free from the ice in the next second, it is already too late.
The pillar of purgatory fire summoned by Zha Kang had hit the head, instantly engulfing the figures of the four wizards and plunging the entire resident room into a sea of flames.
"Ah!"
At the same time, there were screams coming from the other side.
Even a high-level wizard doesn't know if he has gone crazy.
He actually grabbed a samurai sword and wanted to engage in close combat with Er Tong, which fulfilled Er Tong's intention. If his shooting skills were probably at Level 6, then his melee skills were at least around Level 8.
It only took a few seconds for the two cursed high-caste blades, one long and one short, to pierce the heart of the miserable guy. While the latter fell to his knees, he was decapitated with an extremely cruel knife from behind.
Mason looked at the sea of fire burning in front of him. He grabbed the legendary pistol that Judy lent him from his waist, activated his eyes of death, raised it and pulled the trigger to the other side in the perception that time was almost suspended.
Eight bullets flew out from the muzzle of the gun and easily penetrated the wall, shattering the hearts and heads of the two female wizards hiding behind who were covered in blood and ready to call for support.
The destructive power and accuracy of the legendary pistol amazed the hearts of young people.
But there are obviously more important things right now.
When the scorching light of the fire dissipated, Mason picked up the Sorting Hat, laughing happily and crazily, and took out the sealed Hufflepuff golden cup, and then pulled out the ghost-headed black blade from the penguin umbrella and stepped forward.
He watched the great wizard Tengu, who was struggling in purgatory, place the golden cup on the ground, grab the miserable old man's neck and drag him over.
The cold devil's head was pressed against his neck, and he said:
"The doomsday beasts of Hogwarts say hello to you, Your Excellency the Grand Wizard. The undead souls of Hogwarts are waiting for you to reunite in hell. Please send my regards to Mr. Potter and Miss Hermione on behalf of me, a transfer student at Hogwarts." Say hello.”
"Poof"
The sword flashed across and blood burst out.
The noble blood of the pure-blooded wizard gushed out from the wound like a waterfall and poured into the golden cup in front of him, much like the post-war celebrations of warriors who drank blood from cups in myths and legends.
But that's just the beginning of Mason's "career" as the Hogwarts Avenger.
I have to say, this beginning is so cool.
Ps: I’m gradually recovering from the goatman symptoms, so I’ll update the leader tomorrow!
