Chapter 383: Smasher

~9 min read 1,749 words

Luo En's Knight armor appeared half red and half black, with a dragon-head-shaped shoulder armor and a sword-like helmet. Harry only had time to take a few glances before he immediately drew a red sword and rushed forward to fight the monster that looked very bloated.

Harry didn't stare at their fight, because he noticed that quite a few first-year students had been injured in the previous attack and were groaning on the ground at this time.

Taking another look at the battle over there and confirming that Luo En was gaining the upper hand, Harry ran quickly to a student's side, preparing to help him up.

This first-year freshman was already scared out of his wits and couldn't help asking: "What is that thing?"

"I'm not sure either," the guess lingering in Harry's heart was not suitable for a first-year freshman. "Are you okay? Can you help me notify the professor?"

"I, I, my leg seems to..."

Harry sighed, used the Levitation Charm to move the freshman to a relatively safe place, and then shouted at several students who had gathered around to watch the fun: "Go notify the professor quickly, and someone come help me move the wounded!"

A Slytherin boy ran toward the castle immediately, while four Gryffindor freshmen walked to Harry's side.

"We'll help you, Senior Potter," one of them said.

"You are only in the first year, right?" Harry frowned. "The one with glasses, you go find Professor McGonagall or Headmaster Snape, find whoever you can. The one with black hair, you go to the hospital wing to find Madam Pomfrey. The one with golden hair, you go to the Defense Against the Dark Arts class to find Professor Su Ge Mi. Quick, run!"

"Then what about me?" the remaining little fatty asked.

"Uh, do me a personal favor, go to the Ravenclaw House to find a senior named Zhang Qiu." Harry didn't want to call him a little fatty in front of everyone just now, but in his heart, he still hoped not to let the junior stay in this relatively dangerous scene for too long.

After the four juniors scattered, Harry noticed that three sixth-year students had run over. It was Draco and his two followers.

"Just in time, come help me move the wounded," Harry didn't care about that much. Besides, there were quite a few Slytherin freshmen lying on the ground.

"I," Draco touched his robe pocket, wanting to speak but stopping. "Who is the one fighting?"

"It's Luo En," Harry took another look at the battle situation. Luo En was beating the monster back steadily. "And he drank Felix Felicis."

"Alright," Draco muttered. "Let's go save people."

Just as Harry moved the fourth wounded person, he saw from afar that the professors had also arrived. And just at this moment, a blurry, huge explosion sound came. Harry couldn't help but look up. Sure enough, Luo En had already used a beautiful cross-slash to cut the monster into four pieces completely.

"What are you doing here?" Snape scanned the surroundings and said with dissatisfaction, "Are any students injured?"

"I think we were attacked, and some first-year students were injured," Harry answered him calmly. "Most of them were just frightened."

"Attack, who attacked?" Snape looked at the monster that had already been divided into four pieces. "This one wearing fancy armor is... Luo En?"

"We don't know who it is either," Luo En, who had released the transformation, walked over here. "But it looks like a troll."

The rest of the professors also arrived. McGonagall looked at the two of them with a complicated gaze, while Su Ge Mi just trailed behind, looking here with indifference.

Zhang Qiu hurried over and gradually slowed down her pace beside the professors. The little fatty she was holding was panting heavily at this time.

Everyone didn't speak. This was also a quite serious attack at Hogwarts, and they were all waiting for Snape to speak.

Snape looked at Luo En, who was in a state of excessive confidence, and said slowly: "This reminds me of the first year, you were still so fond of playing the hero... However, it seems that now you have the capital for it."

"Madam Pomfrey, please take care of the injured students," Snape narrowed his eyes and looked at Harry. "And our next job is to investigate this matter, exactly who put a troll... perhaps a magically modified troll, into the school."

"Professor Su Ge Mi, do you have any insights?" Snape said suddenly.

"I don't know him," Su Ge Mi shook his head. "I haven't seen this kind of spell either, completely confused."

Harry narrowed his eyes. Everyone present, except Luo En, perhaps each harbored some things they were unwilling to tell others. He didn't believe Snape would be so ignorant, especially since this timing was too coincidental, as if it were prepared to give Luo En, who had just learned to transform, a chance to hone his skills.

"There is one point I quite agree with Headmaster Snape's statement," Harry thought to himself, "This reminds me of our first year."

"Gryffindor plus two points," Snape finished this sentence and walked up to check the monster's corpse.

"Hiccup," Luo En took a breath. "I feel the medicine's effect seems to have passed."

"Is that so? I dare say you did a great job," Harry praised.

"What did he drink?" McGonagall asked with a frown.

"Felix Felicis," Luo En said half the truth. "We wanted to see if there were any geniuses worth recruiting into the team among the first years, so we drank a little bit before going out."

"Even if there are, I won't agree to let first-year students join the team," McGonagall stared into Luo En's eyes. "What spell did you use to defeat that monster?"

"Tianchao's alchemy armor," Zhang Qiu interjected. "It's very useful for dealing with magical creatures and the like."

"I think the matter might be very clear," Snape walked back. "It should be that someone wanted to use this monster to test us, but he just happened to run into... Mr. Weasley, who got a new toy. Perhaps this also has something to do with the Felix Felicis you drank. You usually also crave the opportunity to play the hero, right?"

"Who wouldn't?" Luo En shrugged.

Harry truly admitted that the Knight System could bring confidence to people. Luo En wouldn't have talked to Snape like this before.

"Alright, for Hogwarts, this matter is over," Snape announced to the teachers and students. "As for the rest, I will notify the Ministry of Magic to solve it."

Snape protected the scene with a spell, and then left with the other professors, taking the wounded with them. Zhang Qiu waited quietly for others to leave, and Harry also waited quietly for her to explain this matter.

"Oh, this is really too cool," the little fatty wearing Gryffindor school uniform gestured, obviously he was not in a hurry to leave. "Although this is not quite the same as I imagined, but, this is the Star of Salvation!"

"Luo En's strength really surprised us. I can't imagine how powerful Potter is!" the freshman with black hair also leaned over.

"You also helped a lot," Harry had a good impression of these freshmen who helped, and didn't mind getting to know them. "Are you freshmen?"

"Yes, I am Quinn Kowalski, this is Orion Rosier," the little fatty seemed to be a bit familiar. "We are good friends in the same dormitory, and there are Karl and Nikola."

The child with glasses also walked up generously to greet them, only the child named Nikola seemed a bit shy.

"Come on, Nikola, the future leader is receiving us," Quinn stepped forward and grabbed his shoulder. "We are a team, we must let Mr. Potter see the strength of our team, so that we will have the opportunity to take some glorious tasks from him in the future!"

"Hello, sir, I am Nikola Kahnstein," the little blond boy said timidly. He had emerald green pupils like Harry's. Before hearing the surname, Harry was still wondering if he would have any kinship with himself.

"I remember you all, you are all good children," Harry thought about talking to Zhang Qiu early, so he didn't say too much. "When we select Quidditch players, you can also come and try."

"Oh, Draco, is there anything?" When Harry turned his head back, he found that there were still three outsiders at the scene.

"No, I'm just wondering, why does Luo En's transformation have dragon elements?" he said with a complicated expression. "And, I'm still a bit curious about your..."

"Dragon of Courage, the point is courage," Luo En interrupted his words. "You Slytherins won't understand."

"If you are a dragon, that's fine too," Draco took a breath, then left without saying a word.

"Now you can talk about it, obviously you know this monster," Harry said plainly.

"Yes, this is very likely, no, I can be sure this is a Smasher," Zhang Qiu didn't mind Harry's attitude and explained slowly to the two. "This is a by-product researched in the early days of the Knight System. Inserting mixed energy bottles directly into the human body can obtain ability similar to Knight armor, but people transformed into Smashers will permanently lose their sanity, and there is no possibility of recovery. It can be said that they are as good as dead."

"No way!" Luo En looked at his hands in shock. "Could it be that I just now—"

"No, this is a second-generation Smasher," Zhang Qiu comforted. "Later, people discovered that using the same method to transform magical creatures can obtain more powerful and easier-to-control monsters. This one is obviously modified from a troll."

"But why would this kind of monster appear at Hogwarts? And who made it?" Luo En relaxed a little and began to ask questions.

"Snape was right, this is a test," Harry said. "They want to test whether we have mastered the power of Kamen Riders, because it is difficult to deal with Smashers with ordinary magic spells."

"Yes, yes, Harry is right," Zhang Qiu echoed. "The appearance of Smashers actually also means that someone has begun to try to reverse-crack the Knight System. This is very normal."

In front of Luo En, Harry didn't say anything, found an opportunity to steer the topic to the four freshmen, and the three began to walk toward the castle. ===== CHAPTER 384 =====
