Chapter 370 Light and Dark Fields and Passive Triggering Cards

Cedric was also confused when he met two wizards riding broomsticks in the middle of the night: Isn't this too coincidental? You know, there are not many wizards in total, and it is a low probability event to meet two wizards in the sky at night.

Because he didn't know the other party's origin, Cedric secretly raised his vigilance.

"Excuse me, is that the direction to Hogsmeade--" Pisces saw the vigilance on Cedric's face, so he took the initiative to speak to try to lower Cedric's defense. He recognized the style of the broom the other party was riding, which was the top-level flying broom Firebolt. Once the other party was disturbed, he and Gemini were not good at speed, and they would definitely not be able to catch up.

As a result, before Cedric could reply, Gemini on the side exclaimed: "Fuck, are you riding a Firebolt?!"

Pisces couldn't help but slap his forehead: He was really crazy, and actually agreed to team up with such a person.

In fact, if Pisces considers it from the perspective of Taurus, they will understand that Gemini will definitely be sent out to do the task, and Taurus doesn't want to squeeze in a cave with him!

However, Gemini's strange behavior dispelled Cedric's vigilance. He smiled and nodded, indicating that his broom was indeed a Firebolt.

Gemini's eyes flashed with envy: he had wanted such a broom for a long time, but he had been busy with tasks recently...

Whoosh——

Gemini wanted to chat with Cedric for a while, but Pisces couldn't wait. He suddenly made a move and cast a spell at Cedric, but Cedric easily dodged it.

'Sure enough, these two people came with bad intentions! ' Cedric suddenly realized that these two wizards who didn't know where they came from were probably tempted by money and planned to rob his Firebolt.

This is a very reasonable speculation. Who would have thought that they actually wanted to rob people more?

Pisces, who failed in the surprise attack, did not show a disappointed look. He waved his left hand, and the spell that had deviated from the target and flew out suddenly made a 180-degree turn, turned around and flew straight towards Cedric's broom, hitting the Firebolt under his crotch like a meteor.

Cedric was caught off guard and failed to dodge this time. After being hit, the Firebolt instantly lost control and fell to the ground.

"Hey!" Gemini cried out in pain. In his opinion, Pisces' behavior was simply a waste of natural resources.

"Don't worry, it's not broken." Pisces knows his colleague too well. His spell will only interfere with the Firebolt, making it unable to fly, but it will not cause any harm to it. If Gemini wants it, he can pick it up after the battle is over.

"Don't let that kid smash into a pulp. We must keep his body intact." Gemini was relieved to know that the Firebolt was fine, and he began to shift his energy to the current task of the two.

"I know," Pisces responded impatiently, "Just use the killing curse, it won't leave any external injuries."

Falling rapidly, Cedric tried to restart the Firebolt, but it had no effect at all. After realizing that he couldn't do anything, he immediately began to prepare other means of self-rescue.

The terrifying feeling of weightlessness and the increasingly sharp sound of the wind in his ears did not change Cedric's mood. As a veteran who has played Quidditch for three years, this little scene is not a big deal. The speed of falling when diving to catch the Golden Snitch in the game is several times faster than this.

He directly began to try to communicate with the soil in this area, and used a shock-absorbing spell on his broom, which greatly slowed down the speed of falling.

Fortunately, he was not unlucky today. The soil in the nearby area had no traces of magic left by others, so he could use it. Although the control power was far less than the soil in the dungeon, it also made Cedric feel certain.

"Look, he's quite knowledgeable." Watching Cedric skillfully control the malfunctioning broom, Pisces smiled happily and said, "Jamieny, now you don't have to worry about picking up only a few pieces of broken wood."

"Hurry up and get rid of this guy, and go back early. I still want to feel the legendary Firebolt." Gemini glanced at Pisces and dived directly to the ground.

Pisces curled his lips: Jiminy is only motivated at this time.

Cedric finally landed lightly on the ground, put the malfunctioning Firebolt aside, holding the wand in his hand and looking coldly at the two people who landed dozens of feet away from him.

"You two, wealth should be earned with hard work and sweat."

Pisces:?

Gemini:?

Gemini cleared his throat and told Cedric seriously that the two of them were actually attracted by his body, and the broom was just a convenience.

"Don't treat us as ordinary thieves. We should be classified as dark wizards!" Gemini said proudly.

Now not only Cedric, but also his accomplice Pisces were silent.

The atmosphere suddenly became awkward. No matter Cedric or Gemini Pisces, no one spoke.

Cedric took the opportunity to quietly activate the nearby land. He needed time to prepare, and the two weirdos in front of him actually gave him precious time.

Gemini frowned and noticed Cedric's movement. He looked up in astonishment, "You actually have a domain too?"

Cedric did not answer, Pisces looked at Cedric in surprise, and then found that he did emit fluctuations similar to the domain around him.

"Very good, since he is a person with a domain, he is not an unknown person. I am Pisces of the Secret Society, and he is Gemini. Young man, report your name!"

Cedric replied in a deep voice: "Hogwarts, Cedric Diggory."

He still had a glimmer of fantasy, thinking that if he said the name of Hogwarts, the two people in front of him would retreat. But what Cedric didn't know was that after learning that he was born in Hogwarts, Gemini and Pisces were even more determined to kidnap him.

Hogwarts has a Dumbledore, which is difficult enough. If this guy is released tonight, Hogwarts will have two wizards who have awakened their domains in a few years! And this guy is much younger than Dumbledore, so it is even more necessary to keep him here. It was really blessed by the gods that they accidentally intercepted such a big fish!

"Flying sand and rocks!"

"Phantom entangled!"

"Armor protection--"

Gemini and Pisces launched a tentative attack on Cedric, but he easily resolved it. The three of them fired seven or eight spells at each other, and various lights flew around in the night sky, but they couldn't do anything to each other.

However, Gemini and Pisces are two people after all, and they have an advantage in numbers, so Cedric soon couldn't hold on.

After narrowly dodging Gemini's explosive spell, Pisces's green spell flew in front of Cedric. As a last resort, Cedric mobilized the soil under his feet, forming a wave of soil, pushing him to the side by a foot, and only then did he barely avoid Pisces' spell.

"I thought it was something else, it turned out to be a pseudo-domain." After seeing Cedric's way of driving the soil, Pisces laughed: "If you want to have a real domain, wait another ten years!"

"This state is enough to get rid of you!" After fighting for so long, Cedric, who had encountered several killing moves in a row, was already filled with anger. He no longer spared his magic power and directly drove the soil that he had activated with all his strength.

All of a sudden, Cedric had the upper hand. The various animals and throwing weapons formed by the mud even made Gemini and Pisces feel flustered and exhausted. By manipulating the mud, Cedric's flexibility was greatly improved, and the spells of the two could not even touch the corners of his clothes.

However, Cedric also had his difficulties: he had not awakened the real domain, and could not expand the scope of influence on the mud as recklessly as his teacher. Now such a big attack consumes a lot of magic power. In less than a minute, he was a little overwhelmed and began to sweat on his forehead.

Cedric was anxious, and Gemini was more anxious than him. In his opinion, it was extremely shameful to be tripped by such a young man and even fall into a disadvantage for a time.

"Light and dark domain, open--" After blasting a flying earth cone into powder and witnessing his counterattack spell being swallowed by Cedric's earth wall, Gemini could no longer hold back and directly opened his own domain.

In an instant, the ground was covered by a layer of shadow, and it extended towards Cedric at a very fast speed.

Pisces silently stepped back a few steps and drew a magic circle on the ground, not knowing what he wanted to do.

When the shadow came into contact with the soil controlled by Cedric, Cedric felt that the soil he controlled was melting at a very fast speed like frost under the sun.

If this continued, the soil he activated would disappear in a few minutes.

Cedric didn't care about the consumption of magic power, and directly communicated with the soil with all his strength, trying his best to fight against the strange domain of Gemini.

At this time, the magic power in Cedric's body rushed out like a river water when the dam broke, making his forehead covered with large and small beads of sweat, and his face was bloodless.

Compared with Cedric, Gemini was much calmer, and his dark domain was rapidly devouring Cedric's magic power to strengthen himself. Cedric, who had not awakened the real domain, was too passive when he met someone who really had a domain. However, compared with no domain, Cedric was still far ahead - at least he could hold on for a long time if he was only fighting Gemini.

When the two were in a stalemate, Pisces had already drawn the magic circle and wrote a circle of runes around the magic circle.

After doing all this, he stood in the center of the magic circle, raised his hand, pointed his index finger at Cedric and said -

"In the name of Hela, the Queen of the Underworld, I, Pises curse you, Cedric Diggory!" After saying this, a trace of sickly paleness flashed across his face, and his robe was immediately wet with sweat, as if he was experiencing great pain.

Cedric felt that his stomach was as if he had been hit hard by a punch, and a piercing pain came from it. The pain made his eyes black and he couldn't help but hunch over.

Gemini and Pisces cooperated tacitly. While Cedric was distracted, his dark domain suddenly rushed forward and climbed directly onto Cedric's shoulder.

Cedric tried his best to drive the soil to slide back with him, and successfully escaped from the dark area, but his shoulders were also covered with a layer of shadow similar to the color of the dark area.

Seeing that he succeeded, Gemini immediately smiled.

"Light!" He raised his hand, and a piece of light spread out with him as the center, instantly covering the entire area.

The light was very soft, and when it shone on the body, it would only feel warm, but Cedric screamed in pain, and at this time he had a pain from the soul on his shoulder.

Under the attack of the two, Cedric's control over the soil collapsed, and he lost consciousness, his eyes went black and he fell to the ground.

Just when the Geminis thought they had succeeded, they found that Cedric had a terrifying magical fluctuation. At the same time, a bracelet on Cedric's wrist quietly turned into dust and merged into the soil under him.

The soil came alive and swallowed Cedric in one gulp as if it had life.

…

Helga opened her eyes suddenly, and she felt that the magic props she left for Cedric were triggered. She suddenly lost all her sleepiness and sat up from the bed. She knew that Cedric must have encountered great danger.

The robe was automatically wrapped around her. Helga was ready to set off in the shortest time. Then, without any hesitation, she forcibly took back part of the control authority of the castle, and then used the authority to lift the ban within the Hogwarts campus.

Now, she was not the only one who woke up. Rice and Dumbledore were awakened from their dreams by Helga's actions at the same time.

Dumbledore opened his eyes with a serious look: he didn't know what happened, he only knew that the school's Apparition ban had been lifted. His brain was working fast, and he soon locked onto the person who was most likely to do this - Smith White.

Dumbledore took action immediately.

Rice did not hesitate at all, wrapped the quilt around himself, and appeared in Helga's office with a wand in his hand the next second. The quilt on his body automatically turned into a Roman-style robe, and his eyes were also locked on the portal that was slowly closing at the door of the Hufflepuff bedroom.

This was a special teleportation magic they had developed that year, which allowed them to teleport to a specific point accurately. They were usually used on magic props to save students' lives.

Seeing this teleportation magic circle, Rice understood why Helga forcibly lifted the ban in the middle of the night.

In the state of Hufflepuff College, it was not easy for Helga to receive a favorite student from it, and it was normal to be anxious.

Without hesitation, Rice turned a piece of parchment on the desk into a mask to cover his face, and then he stepped into the portal that was gradually shrinking.

After Les walked into the portal, the portal suddenly shone brightly, expanded outwards, and then disappeared.

The next second, there was a bang in Helga's office, and Dumbledore appeared in the office.

Without bothering to avoid suspicion, he went directly into Professor White's bedroom and found that she had disappeared. Looking at the bed that was still warm, Dumbledore frowned: Sure enough, it was she who forcibly broke the school's ban, but why, who is she?

Dumbledore first restarted the school's ban, making it impossible to Apparate here, and then began to think: the witch who returned from ancient times, was good at using food magic and puppet making, had a different style of behavior, and also had some authority over the castle...
