Chapter 248 The Assessment Completed Successfully

"A demon that has infiltrated the tribe and sucked the lives of the tribe members?" Aragog's voice was full of hesitation and confusion. "My children have never mentioned this incident to me."

Daphne raised the corner of her mouth and showed a sarcastic smile: "Maybe they enjoy it, old spider? They were eating happily just now."

Aragog fell silent all of a sudden, and even the pair of large claws on his head stopped colliding with each other.

After a long time, it expressed its agreement in the same slow tone.

It is old, and its control over the tribe is also declining. The huge tribe has shown signs of gradually losing control in its hands. It can still rely on the prestige it has accumulated before to barely support the situation, but many things are beyond its control-such as eating the bodies of dead fellows.

Aragog believes that even after his death, he will become a meal in the mouths of the spider group. This is the habit of the eight-eyed giant spider!

But now it is different! How can they turn a blind eye to this abnormality? Just for that bite of the same kind of meat?

Aragog turned around suddenly, grabbed the eight-eyed spider closest to him with his limbs, and pulled it in front of him.

"Tell me how many of my kind have died suddenly recently!" Aragog burst out with unprecedented momentum, sweeping away the aging posture just now.

The spider controlled by Aragog couldn't help but curl up all its legs, curling into a ball, looking very scared.

After a few seconds, seeing that Aragog had no intention of punishing it, the spider trembled and told it that its kind had died every day recently, ranging from one or two to three or four, and this phenomenon has lasted for more than a week.

Aragog just felt a little suffocated: more than a week? ! Don't you have any idea of ​​the speed at which your kind die normally? Don't you think they die too frequently?

Magical animals like the eight-eyed giant spider are very long-lived. Unless they suffer irreversible serious injuries when they go out hunting, they will not die for no reason. Spiders die every day, and this number is really far beyond the normal value.

Now, Aragog had no doubts about what Daphne and the others said.

He turned his head and asked, "That monster is parasitic on the back of one of my children, right?"

After receiving a positive answer, Aragog ordered all the eight-eyed giant spiders to leave the spider nest.

The old patriarch's words were still useful. After a while of noise, the spiders left the spider nest one after another. Daphne and the others soon found a spider with a tumor on its back - it was obviously the possessed spider.

Daphne was about to take action, but she lowered her wand again. She remembered what happened after she blew up the spider at the beginning.

"Have all the spiders come out?" she asked softly.

Aragog touched the ground with his limbs and quickly came to the conclusion: "There is another one hiding deep in the spider web, hehe..."

He knew in his heart: that was the culprit.

He decisively ordered his offspring to drag the demon out of the nest and tear it to pieces. At the same time, it turned to face Daphne and the other four, and said in a humble tone: "Please put out the fire. The Acromanthus is not the enemy of wizards."

During the negotiation between Aragog and Daphne, the fire had grown a lot. Now they don't even need to do anything, this fire can bring a catastrophe to the Acromanthus.

Daphne couldn't help licking her lips: She really didn't have a good way, it was easy to set a fire but difficult to put it out.

She glanced at the nightmare standing beside her. At Daphne's instruction, the nightmare ran around the fire wall and controlled the fire within a certain range. Then the four little wizards took turns to cast a freezing spell on the raging fire. It took some effort for them to put out the fire on the edge of the depression.

The fire was extinguished, and the battle in the spider's nest was over. The Acromanthus, which had an absolute advantage in numbers, dragged the monster out of the spider's nest and tore it into pieces.

"It looks like everything is over." Aragog sighed with emotion - if these little wizards hadn't come, who knows how many of his offspring would have died!

For this reason, it decided to forgive the killings caused by the little wizards at the beginning.

"It's not over." Daphne narrowed her eyes. She noticed that when the spider hiding in the depths of the spider's nest was torn apart, a small black notebook fell from its body. She thought that was the source of everything.

If the notebook was not destroyed, everything would be just a cloud.

At this moment, the notebook was lying quietly between the fallen leaves and spider webs, showing a harmless appearance. But it is obvious that when the storm is over, it will stir up waves again.

After listening to Daphne's story, Aragog sighed: "I am old and can't deal with such a monster. Please help me get rid of it! I will restrain my children."

After getting Aragog's guarantee, Daphne walked down the depression with the other three little wizards.

Riddle's diary in the humus seemed to sense the approaching danger. It no longer hesitated and directly materialized Riddle in the diary.

At this time, Riddle had already been polluted, his spirit was covered with disgusting black filth, and his eyes were filled with bloodlust and desire for killing.

It rushed towards the four little wizards like a wild beast, at an extremely fast speed, and rushed to Astoria in the blink of an eye, and then was bounced off by the protective spell cast by Astoria.

Then, Hermione hit the monster with a precise barrier spell, trapping it in place, and several attacking magics immediately poured on it.

Although these spells could not kill it directly, they could continuously weaken it. When the vitality it absorbed from the eight-eyed giant spider was exhausted, it could only shrink back into the diary.

As if aware of his situation, Riddle, who had fallen into madness, suddenly opened his mouth and let out a sharp explosion full of negative emotions. The four people standing near him suddenly felt dizzy and the spells in their hands were forced to be interrupted.

Seizing this opportunity, Riddle rushed towards Harry - he was not the wizard closest to him, but he subconsciously chose Harry instead of Daphne who was closer.

The four were caught off guard by the scream of the spirit. If nothing unexpected happened, Riddle would survive and turn the tables, but Nightmare, who was not affected by the scream, sprinted and pushed Riddle back, and at the same time ignited his spirit.

Riddle, who was already at the end of his strength, let out a painful scream, and then the whole spirit turned into a black smoke and sank directly into the diary on the ground.

So far, everything is over.
