"Do you expect this to scare me?"
Facing hundreds of venomous snakes ready to move, Sirius showed no fear at all and said with a look of disgust on his face.
"Your magic is as disgusting as your people, Snotlout!"
"I expect you'll be so tough-talking later, pug!"
Snape's dark eyes showed a kind of fanaticism that others could not understand. He raised his wand and struck down. In an instant, hundreds of venomous snakes in the corridor began to swim, trying to surround Sirius from all directions. This scene was undoubtedly It was so shocking that Madam Pomfrey screamed uncontrollably. Several young wizards, including Draco, standing beside Amosta also turned pale and their bodies were shaking like a sieve.
call--
A blazing and surging flame suddenly appeared in the narrow corridor. This flame came from the tip of Sirius's staff. Although it was not a powerful fire, it was obviously a very powerful magical flame. Bathed in this raging purple magic fire, Si Nap's poisonous snakes twisted their bodies and neighed tragically!
However, the flames did not completely prevent the venomous snakes from approaching. Under Snape's command, the venomous snakes responded quickly. Dozens of venomous snakes entangled each other and rolled into a ball quickly through the flames. Although the outer circle The poisonous snake inside has also been scorched by the demonic fire, but the poisonous snake inside is still alive!
call out! call out! call out!
The several poisonous snakes that rushed through the flames immediately stretched their bodies. They jumped up from the ground like springs, exposed their ferocious fangs in mid-air, and rushed straight to Sirius's face!
"Armor protection!"
Seeing this, Sirius took two steps back. He had no choice but to remove the flames that suppressed the snake array. He raised his wand in front of him and roared, summoning a magic barrier.
Snape is also a master of duels. He is good at catching fighter planes and never misses a good opportunity to suppress Sirius. His eyes are blazing and his wrists are shaking. The glass shards on the collapsed glass door of the school hospital on the ground reflect the cold light. Then a piece flew up, and with a harsh whistle, rushed straight towards the back of Sirius' neck.
Boom!
Suddenly, a dull thunderous roar resounded through the fourth floor, and the rolling thunder swept across. The glass fragments controlled by Snape instantly turned into countless powder, and the poisonous snakes that had not been burnt also exploded one after another. It turned into black magic smoke, and at the same time, the invisible magic barrier in front of Sirius suddenly shattered with a crisp click.
Both Sirius and Snape turned pale in an instant, and an unbearable dizziness made him collapse to the ground for two seconds, and he retched at the same time.
The moment the thunder sounded, Draco felt that his mind went blank, as if an irresistible force had wiped out his consciousness.
And a few seconds later, he finally came to his senses, but his heart was still clenched by a clear feeling of panic, making it difficult for him to breathe. Through the corner of his eye, Draco noticed Madam Pomfrey and several people beside him. The little wizard who had the misfortune to be involved looked like him. Only old man Dumbledore seemed to have his face blown by the breeze, his silver beard fluttering, and his eyes half-closed behind the half-moon glasses.
"Discussions between old friends need to be done with caution--"
Amosta slowly put down his right hand that raised his wand and struck the void in front of him, smacking his lips in dissatisfaction.
Sirius and Snape, who staggered to their feet, cast angry looks at Amosta at the same time, especially Snape, who was just one step away from achieving his 'lifelong wish'. This is a rare thing. The opportunity' was destroyed in Amosta's hands.
"I think you should explain your actions."
Dumbledore walked out from behind Amosta. He looked at the two impulsive middle-aged men who took a breath and then started to glare at each other angrily. There was a coldness in his calm tone.
This is indeed too much.
Although Dumbledore knew that Snape and Sirius would not have fought directly outside the school hospital if Amosta had not been present to control the situation, but such an act was still very bad.
"Let's ask your new professor, Headmaster Dumbledore."
Snape raised his chin, his voice sinister,
"He openly used a curse to attack an outstanding student of Slytherin House in class. I suspect that twelve years in prison has not changed the evil nature hidden in his character."
"Oh, evil nature, so funny, Snotlout!"
Sirius panted slightly. It seemed that he was more exhausted than Snape. However, this was not a strange thing. Maybe when they were young, their levels were not much different, but after all, Sirius was in Az Caban was tortured by dementors for so many years, but Snape improved in strength during his years at Hogwarts.
"Do you need me to remind you of the 'pranks' you got up to when you were working for Voldemort?"
"Sirius--"
The word Voldemort is still very lethal among ordinary people. Madam Pomfrey and several young wizards suddenly looked frightened when they heard the name, and Dumbledore reminded in a deep voice,
"Severus has moved on from that past, and I have no doubt that his stance will never waver again."
"That's your opinion, Headmaster Dumbledore -"
Sirius stared at Snape, who also had a sullen expression, and said coldly,
"I don't think he's completely reformed!"
"At least you need to explain--"
Dumbledore's sharp eyes fell on Sirius through his half-moon lenses.
"Severus just said that you used magic to punish the little wizard in class. I believe Minerva must have read the teachers' regulations to you and knows that those punishments are not allowed, right?"
"Then you have to ask the Malfoy boy next to you what he did in class--"
Sirius glanced at Draco with disgust and said,
"He tried to take Harry's earmuffs off while I was teaching him how to deal with the bastards, and you should know what that does - speaking of which,"
Sirius glared at Snape again, his tone strong,
"I know from many sources how you teased Harry in Potions class. I must warn you, Snotlout, if I hear of such incidents happening again, I will come to settle the score with you again."
"What a touching father-son relationship--"
Snape sneered,
"I believe you must have discovered that Potter looks a lot like his father, right?"
"Not bad." Sirius said proudly.
"Then you should probably know that he is just like his father, arrogant and self-righteous, and criticism is a deaf ear to him. Oh, I also missed one thing, he is completely ungrateful!"
Snape said diplomatically.
Sirius raised his wand again, and this time, Dumbledore's voice was much harsher,
"I don't want to take your wand away, Sirius, but if you insist on doing it in front of me, then I have to do it."
In the corridor in front of the school hospital, Snape and Sirius stared at each other, their eyes undisguised their disgust for each other. This disgust was so deep that even Dumbledore could not reconcile the two people. contradiction.
"Okay -" Amosta clapped his hands and said happily, "The grudges have been cleared!"
Where did you come to this conclusion? --Draco looked at Professor Blaine, admiring his ability to tell lies. It was obvious that Professor Snape and the new disgusting professor wanted to tear each other into pieces.
No matter what, now that Dumbledore is here, the duel cannot continue. Snape sneered, then turned and strode away from the other end of the corridor, while Sirius also had a gloomy face.
"If I hear Snape continuing to make a fuss about Harry in his Potions class, Dumbledore—"
Sirius's words stopped abruptly, and then he jumped over Amosta and Dumbledore and left in the opposite direction. After his figure disappeared into the shadow of the stairs, a slightly dull tone came again,
"--It is my responsibility."
Dumbledore's half-closed eyes showed helplessness, and Amosta also smiled and shook his head - Sirius was stimulated by what he said when they first met. Both the godfather and godson wanted to express their feelings for each other. concern, but they all seemed a little anxious.
"Now how to do?"
Madam Pomfrey didn't care about this. She looked angrily at the campus hospital where almost half of the front hall was in ruins.
"If Hogwarts no longer needs a hospital, Dumbledore, I can hand in my resignation right now!"
"The little wizards can't live without you, Poppy -" Dumbledore said gently, "Don't worry about this, I can help clean up -"
With that said, Dumbledore walked into the ruins, waved his wand, and everything was repaired as if he had gone back in time.
"You don't have to worry, Draco—"
Amosta looked at the silent Malfoy. This little guy obviously realized that his disruptive behavior in the Defense Against the Dark Arts class was the trigger for the fight between the two professors. At this moment, he realized that the consequences would be serious and he felt scared. .
"No one will punish you for this—"
Amosta said with a smile.
But Draco's face turned blue and his lips were as pale as blood loss. Faced with Professor Blaine's comfort, he just tensed his body and nodded.
Dumbledore was repairing the school hospital that was riddled with holes. The place was filled with dust. Amosta had no intention of staying here to help Sirius and Professor Snape clean up.
"Come on, Draco, come to the office with me, I happen to need your help with something-"
