Chapter 418: Dangerous Trigger

"Hey!" When Harry returned to the dormitory, he found Luo En lying on the bed, which made his worry even greater.

"Oh, I'm a bit sleepy, I want to lie down for a while longer," Luo En said weakly.

"You have to pull yourself together, you know I just..." Harry wanted to use Hermione's news to arouse his curiosity.

"I don't want to hear it," Luo En turned over, with his back to Harry. "I know I've been troubled by Hermione's affairs recently, and I also know this is wrong, although I might not necessarily find a way to overcome it—but I decided to at least start by no longer paying attention."

"You want to forget her?" Harry felt this was a bit difficult. After all, Zhang Qiu said that fate would always guide the two to pay attention to each other from time to time.

"Pretty much, in short, I can't let her affect my battle," Luo En's voice was a bit frustrated. "Especially now that Saber has fallen behind others."

"Then you should also get up and practice swordsmanship," Harry urged with some dissatisfaction.

"No, it has little to do with swordsmanship. The important thing is my emotions," Luo En seemed a bit guilty. "I have to adjust my emotions..."

Harry knew that talking to him more wouldn't yield any benefits. At this moment, he could only leave the dormitory angrily. He wandered aimlessly in the eighth-floor corridor. Suddenly, a somewhat crazy, but seemingly feasible plan surged into his heart.

He needed an opportunity, an opportunity that truly forced Luo En to a dead end, an opportunity that made someone Luo En cared about also fall into danger, and had to rely on him to rescue. Harry thought that the reason Luo En had never grown up might have something to do with him never having experienced such a situation.

Yes, the more Harry thought about it, the more he felt it made sense. Every time Luo En faced an enemy alone, Crimson Knight or Moon Knight, he fought quite well. If he could be made to face Alan alone—no, Alan was an exchange student. Losing to him would at most just be a loss of face, even in front of Hermione...

Harry realized at this moment that Tang Tang Nade's scheme was indeed well-thought-out. Alan's identity destined that it was hard for Luo En to generate the belief that he "must win" when fighting him. The only way was to use his obsession with Hermione, but from the current point of view, this was instead another trap.

Then the answer was obvious. If one couldn't make a fuss about OOO, one could only make a fuss about Moon Knight. He needed to take a risk, and he happened to have enough means to support him that Luo En didn't know about, which was the Queen's Blood.

For a whole day, Harry perfected his plan over and over again in his heart. Then, after the Torchwood gathering, he kept Cui Ge behind.

"I'm sorry that I still need your help this time, but I think this is the only opportunity to make Luo En pull himself together," Harry said. "I need to make him fall into a dilemma. For this, you and OOO might need to both be injured."

"Hmm... you say the latter first," Cui Ge scratched his head in distress.

"I will find a way to get Snape away and lure Moon Knight to appear. Last time it was because Snape left the school and went to the Ministry of Magic that Moon Knight slipped into the school," Harry already had a plan in his heart, which was to ask Snape to take Neville to the Department of Mysteries to find Deng Buliduo's relics.

"When Moon Knight appears, and you and OOO are both injured, Luo En will definitely stand up to block Moon Knight without hesitation. This is the best way to make him regain his fighting heart," Harry said seriously.

"Sounds good, but I feel the result of this fight might not be up to me," Cui Ge looked a bit hesitant. "OOO challenging again must mean he has some new reliance. The worst case is—he continuously defeats Double and Moon Knight, and then Hogwarts' face will be completely lost."

"Then things will be a bit complicated. I have to go convince Draco..." Harry felt a bit tricky. "Wait a moment, I'll go call him."

"No, wait," Cui Ge stopped him. "I have another plan."

"What?"

"I want to use the Dangerous Trigger," his tone seemed a bit resolute.

"What is that?"

"You know the Knight system can only receive positive emotion amplification, right?" Cui Ge took out a small plug-in with a big red button. "But after inserting the Dangerous Trigger, it can receive the amplification of all emotions, and the power is greatly enhanced."

"But this is bad for the body!" Harry said without thinking.

"Yes, I know, but once in a while should be fine, but that's not the point," Cui Ge took a deep breath. "The point is, after transforming by inserting the Dangerous Trigger, the negative emotions amplified by the Knight system are very likely to make people fall into madness, and then indiscriminately attack everything around them."

"I don't even know why this thing was invented," Harry's tone carried undisguised rejection. The tragedy of Crimson Knight and Karkaroff was still fresh in his memory. "Clearly the current Knight system has made reasonable improvements, yet they still want to remove the protection device—"

"Of course, because there are always those few moments," Cui Ge interrupted him, "when you will need to do something that must be done even if you bet your life. I think this is the reason why that master kept the Dangerous Trigger."

"On Saturday, I will use the Dangerous Trigger. First, this is to be able to defeat OOO, and second, it is to force Luo En through madness," Cui Ge's voice was still a bit childish, but his tone had an unquestionable quality. "Even if I can control myself not to fall into madness, I will pretend to be."

"You don't have to," Harry frowned. He always felt a strange sense of familiarity.

"The point of the matter is, I don't want to lose to OOO, and I don't want both to be injured either," Cui Ge looked up. "Hogwarts is just one thing, more importantly, I don't want Double—the combination that carries the bond between me and Lu Na—to lose to those stupid animal worlds."

Harry suddenly remembered where this familiarity came from. He had also stood in front of Deng Buliduo and the Doctors like this, with his neck stiff, holding the Time-Moment...

"Oh, Cui Ge, I have to say I really, I think we are very similar," Harry laughed dumbly. "Alright, I will respect your decision, and I am also very grateful that you are willing to do so much for Luo En's affairs."

"Then it's a deal," Cui Ge revealed a smile and gave him a thumbs up.

Harry returned to the dormitory. He did abandon the plan to lure Snape away, and instead started talking to Luo En about the Dangerous Trigger.

Luo En frowned after hearing Harry's explanation, but soon, his thoughts drifted in another direction.

"If, I mean if, Cui Ge's displayed power is indeed very strong, and his loss of control can indeed be stopped by me..." he stared at Harry, and Harry unexpectedly discovered that there was already a flame burning in Luo En's eyes. "I hope to borrow the Dangerous Trigger. If I can master that power, or don't need to master it, just defeat Moon Knight before losing control!"

"Just ask Cui Ge to stop me after defeating Moon Knight." He said in a firm tone.

"I think we have other ways to deal with Moon Knight," Harry began to worry that Luo En was too eager for battle, to the point of falling into danger. "You'd better not take the Dangerous Trigger too seriously, this is a side path after all."

Luo En took a deep breath, seeming to calm his inner excitement. "Harry, I understand your worry. But I also know that I can't go on like this anymore. I need to step back onto the path of the strong. Moon Knight is a heart disease that must be eradicated, and the Dangerous Trigger is not just a means, it is, you know, I feel like I have seen a direction to become stronger."

"You have never thought about it, what if I can completely master that state?" Luo En said with burning eyes. "Yes, if I can completely master the power of full transformation, that will only mean more to me, because this also means that even you will have to look at me with new eyes."

"Calm down, Luo En, Master Shoichi's story also told us that the so-called power of full transformation is unsafe, and it is harmful to the body!" Harry seemed to have grasped a key point of the problem. "You don't have to feel that I will look at you with new eyes. I have always known that you are a true strong person, you are just in a bad state recently!"

"Alright, let's see what happens on Saturday," Luo En smiled, but he didn't seem to have given up on that idea.

What made Harry feel unexpected was that on Saturday, he saw Alan with his usual confident smile, and another slightly familiar girl figure followed behind him.

"Why?" Harry walked up and grabbed Hermione. "Didn't you agree not to get involved in this muddy water?"

"I'm sorry, Harry, I really need OOO," Hermione lowered her eyes and whispered. "This is just a transaction of mutual utilization."

"Ah?" Harry didn't react for a moment.

"I know this might look a bit stupid to you... but, I am thinking," Hermione's eye sockets were red. "I want to fulfill Elena's wish."

"What?"

"She wrote back to me and explained a bit. It's true that she didn't contact me before because she was afraid I would worry, but she was also really determined to participate in that experiment, even if she risked losing control, she still wanted to do it. She said that no matter what, she wanted to possess power, wanted to possess the power sufficient to control her own destiny," Hermione picked up her small bag. "And she also said, in case she really loses control, she hopes that I will be the one to stop her in the end."

"For this point, I must have a Knight system. OOO is the closest and most suitable one," Hermione regained her calmness. "I have already talked to Alan. He will leave Hogwarts in a month, and by then I will become the new transformer of OOO."

"This—" Harry couldn't help but get angry. If it were just Elena voluntarily wanting to bet her life, that would be fine, but if Tang Tang Nade clearly had a foolproof plan, yet still used this kind of low-level sensationalism to deceive Hermione, just to hit Luo En—thinking of this possibility, Harry felt his temples throbbing. Now, he felt Cui Ge had one more reason he had to win.

"Never mind the rest, help me beat him up hard first," Harry said to him through gritted teeth when Cui Ge passed by.

"MaxHazardOn!" Responding to him was the sound made by the Dangerous Trigger, and the distinct energy bottle read when the Dangerous Trigger was inserted into the belt, "Fang!"

"No problem," Cui Ge flipped his fingers, and another energy bottle was inserted into his waist, "Joker!"

A violent aura spread from his body. ===== CHAPTER 419 =====
