Hogwarts from another world

Chapter 177 The Great Revolution

"Is there an earthquake?"

This is the first thought that almost all students have.

Of course, that was Matthew's first thought.

But this doesn't make sense -

From a geographical point of view, the British mainland is outside the two major volcanic and seismic zones, and the surrounding plates are quite stable. There have been very few earthquakes in history. In the past thousand years, the largest earthquake that occurred around the British mainland was in 1933 in the North Sea. The earthquake in Geershazhou was only 6.1 magnitude...

What's more, as a magical building, Hogwarts Castle must have enough protective magic to prevent such an obvious earthquake from happening so easily!

"Everyone, please leave Hogwarts Castle in an orderly manner under the leadership of the prefects!" The voice of Vice Principal Professor Vita Rozier rang in their ears.

The entire auditorium quickly calmed down.

"Students of Slytherin, please follow me!" Gemma Farley, the prefect of Slytherin House, who was already familiar with the journey, said loudly...

First, she started organizing the first-year students.

Matthew glanced over there, and instantly he frowned.

Because among the small group of Slytherin first-years, he didn't see Elaine Shafiq.

In the castle, students from various colleges began to evacuate in an orderly manner under the leadership of their prefects...

As a sophomore, Matthew was among the second group of students to leave.

They left the castle in a commotion.

"Let's go to the Quidditch pitch first!" Gemma shouted.

But it is a bit strange to say that you can feel an extremely obvious earthquake in Hogwarts Castle; but once you leave the castle, the earthquake completely disappears... It is as if there is no earthquake at all!

Obviously, everyone feels a little strange about this.

Could it be that...it wasn't the earth that was shaking at all...

But... Hogwarts Castle itself!

……

The first and second grade students began to evacuate towards the Quidditch pitch, led by several prefects.

The third grade students also began to walk out of the castle in an orderly manner.

Suddenly, there was a commotion among the crowd of third graders... It seemed as if something unexpected had happened there!

The third-year students who had already left the castle were running toward them as if their lives were lost.

"What's going on?" Percy Weasley, the Gryffindor prefect, stopped the third-year students.

"Those house elves, they are crazy..." a third-year Gryffindor girl said breathlessly; Matthew remembered her name, she seemed to be "Aliya Spinnet".

"They suddenly attacked us..." a Ravenclaw boy next to him added, "hitting us with their kitchen utensils and bowls... The students behind were blocked by the house elves. They are now Can't come out..."

Percy Weasley's expression suddenly changed.

"Damn it, my two brothers are still in the castle..." After that, he ran towards the castle like crazy.

"Weasley!" Gemma tried to hold him back, but failed.

He quickly broke into the castle and didn't know what happened there.

"Damn it, what should we do?" Gemma said somewhat helplessly.

The same goes for Ravenclaw's prefect, Penelope Clearwater, who jumped up and down anxiously.

Now here on the Quidditch pitch, there are just a few of them, the prefects, and a large group of first- and second-year students, as well as some third-year students.

And there seemed to be some turmoil over at Hogwarts.

"We have to find a teacher and let him protect us," Cedric Diggory, the prefect of Hufflepuff, still remained calm and said, "No matter what is happening in the castle now... "

"Children, follow me!" As soon as Cedric finished speaking, a familiar voice sounded from behind them.

Matthew looked back, and it took him a lot of effort to realize that the person speaking was actually Professor Silvanos Kettleburn!

This is the first time Matthew has seen the Care of Magical Creatures teacher since the Christmas holidays.

Professor Kettleburn's appearance seemed to have changed a lot compared to before.

One of his eyes was covered with an eyepatch and he seemed to be blind. This old professor, who had been physically disabled many times, was once again in trouble. The only sound arm was wrapped in a thick plaster and hung around his neck.

I have long heard that this Care of Magical Creatures teacher was seriously injured during the centaurs' rebellion, and today it turned out to be true...

But this is not a shameful thing. Being able to successfully escape with one life among hundreds of centaurs is an honor in itself, especially since he was responsible for cutting off the rear in order to protect several students.

However, his eyes looked sharper than before, and his previous cynical look had completely disappeared.

"Follow Professor Kettleburn," Cedric said without thinking, "By the way, Professor, where are we going?"

"We have to leave Hogwarts as soon as possible!" Professor Silvanus Kettleburn said with a serious face, "The campus is no longer safe... Hurry, hurry!"

……

On the other side, in the Great Hall of Hogwarts.

The situation seems to be worse than that on the Quidditch pitch.

Dozens of house elves suddenly swarmed out of the kitchen... They were like crazy, throwing kitchen utensils, cutlery and even kitchen knives at the students and teachers.

Of course, it happened that the third grade students were about to leave the castle through the oak gate... Some students escaped from the castle in a hurry, while others were blocked back.

The small group of third-grade students were so frightened that they fled back into the auditorium, and a few smart children closed the door.

Those crazy house elves were intercepted by them.

This made everyone sigh in relief.

In the previous chaos, many children were slightly injured.

Fortunately, these rioting house elves don't seem to have the courage to use magic to deal with wizards, otherwise the situation may become even worse.

"Percy, why are you back?" Fred, George Weasley, and Lee Jordan were the ones who had just thought of closing the door to the auditorium. One of the twin brothers said in surprise, because she saw His brother was back again. He should have left the castle with the junior students as a prefect.

"Thank God, you're okay!" Percy glanced at his two brothers and looked relieved.

"How could something happen?" Fred said.

"We just need to close the door," George added.

"Those house elves' kitchen knives can't possibly open the door of the auditorium!" Fred said proudly.

Suddenly, a rumbling sound came from outside the oak door.

The twin brothers, who were so proud just now, suddenly changed their expressions.

"What's that sound?"

"Sounds... like a troll?"

"Maybe it's a giant?"

"Are you an idiot? With the size of a giant, how can you possibly walk in the corridor?"

"You two idiots, run away," Percy Weasley angrily grabbed the twin brothers and led them away from the oak door.

Almost ten seconds later, only a "bang" was heard, and the door of the auditorium was smashed open.

Not a troll, not a giant... but a stone statue and armor!

The stone statues and armors that should have been displayed on the first and second floors of Hogwarts now appear here strangely!

They actually helped those crazy house elves attack the teachers and students of Hogwarts?

"Impedimenta!" Professor Travers, the Muggle Studies teacher, suddenly walked up to them, raised his wand in the direction of the door, and shouted at the same time.

Whether it was armor, stone statues, or house elves, they were all blocked by his spell.

"Kids, come this way!" Professor Flitwick, head of Ravenclaw, yelled at the Weasley brothers.

Only then did they realize that they were the few students left in the entire auditorium.

Principal Rosier opened the door between the auditorium and the garden, and the other students began to hurry through, escaping the castle.

"Go!" yelled Percy Weasley.

Then, he, his twin brother, and Li Qiaodan hurriedly escaped into the garden.

……

The lower grade students followed Professor Kettleburn and the three prefects worriedly.

Although they didn’t know what exactly happened, everyone felt very heavy.

"Those dementors and Aurors from the Ministry of Magic, what are they doing?" Draco Malfoy said angrily, "Shouldn't they be the ones protecting us at this time?"

Matthew glanced at the sky and saw that it was indeed the case.

Under normal circumstances, if there was such a large-scale "turmoil" in Hogwarts, the sky should be filled with the dark bodies of the Dementors.

When those dementors appear in the sky, they will definitely feel uncomfortable... but at least it will give people a sense of security.

But now, the sky is clear and clear, with blue sky and white clouds, and no trace of the Dementors can be seen.

There are also none of the Aurors who usually appear at Hogwarts.

"They left this morning," Professor Kettleburn seemed to have heard Malfoy's complaint. He explained softly. "A temporary notice from the Ministry of Magic ordered all Aurors and Dementors to evacuate Hogg." Watts... seems to be saying that traces of the three Azkaban fugitives were found in Aberdeen..."

"Damn it!" Malfoy shouted, "This is obviously a scam!"

"Yes, this is indeed a scam!" A voice suddenly came from their side.

It was a tall and familiar figure... If Matthew remembered correctly, he should be one of the several Aurors stationed in Hogwarts by the Ministry of Magic, and his name was "Delix".

Delis explained with a serious face: "It was the goblins who did it...the goblins bribed the officials of the Ministry of Magic and issued this false order to the Aurors and Dementors of Hogwarts...so that my companions We and the dementors left Hogwarts early in the morning!"

"Then why are you still here?" Matthew asked curiously.

Delis did not answer Matthew's words, but continued: "I have sent them a message with an owl, but it will take at least an hour to contact them and get all the dementors back... Keitel Professor Bourne, you take the students and leave, I will go to the castle to support you!"

After that, he hurried towards the castle without looking back.

Matthew glanced at Delis's back curiously.

"Let's move on!" Professor Kettleburn said loudly, "Go to the gate first. There is a Thestral carriage there that can take us to Hogsmeade... Once we reach Hogsmeade, we should be safe..."

……

This is a huge team.

Including Professor Silvanus Kettleburn, three prefects, and more than a hundred junior students.

But from the current point of view, their escape journey has gone smoothly... without encountering those "rebels".

Just as they were getting closer and closer to the castle gate——

"What is that?" Theodore Nott suddenly let out a strange cry.

Two black spots appeared in the sky, approaching them rapidly.

Professor Kettleburn raised his wand towards the black spot in the sky with a solemn expression. His wand was held in his prosthetic hand.

The two red lights flew towards the black shadow in the sky one after another. However, they did not hit the target and were easily dodged by them.

At this time, they could also clearly see the true faces of the two black figures——

Not a flying magical creature or a wizard riding a broomstick, but two statues.

For Matthew Wakefield, these two statues are very familiar...

They are two warthogs with wings. They fought for Grindelwald in the duel between Grindelwald and the black witch Morgana a year ago; but now, they are turning against the professor at Hogwarts. .

"Children, go away!" Professor Kettleburn shouted, and at the same time he ran towards the two statues.

Rays of light shot out from the end of the Care of Magical Creatures teacher's wand... and the two flying pigs in the sky were more flexible than they imagined; these spells were not that easy to deal with.

A flying pig slammed into Professor Kettleburn. If the Care of Magical Creatures teacher's prosthetic limb hadn't reacted quickly, he would have been knocked to the ground by it.

After finally stabilizing his body, another flying pig statue began to attack.

Obviously, the only teacher in the crowd quickly fell into a disadvantageous position under the pressure of the two statues.

The students were at a loss. Almost all of them were lower grade students; there was no doubt that they were of no use in a battle of this level.

And soon, the sound of horse hooves behind him suddenly sounded——

"It's a centaur!" Draco Malfoy suddenly screamed.

Yes, it's centaurs, and they're back at Hogwarts.

A large area of ​​darkness rushed towards this direction from the direction of the Forbidden Forest.

Soon, they surrounded this large group of Hogwarts students!
