Volume 4: The Sea and the Ship Heading North Chapter 187 Tongue-locking and Throat-locking
Not long after Scabio jumped from the second floor, Jon and Fred passed through the dust and reached the window.
With Nick's fluorescent body as a guide, they saw Scabior at first sight running desperately towards the castle in the center of the island.
Fred didn't hesitate at all and just turned over and jumped out of the second-floor window.
He was young and strong, but he still fell to the ground and grimaced.
However, Jon did not jump down with him. Instead, he held the wand in reverse and chanted the levitation spell in a completely opposite tone.
"Wingardium Leviosa!"
That light feeling spread throughout his body, and the next moment, he flew into the air and flew out of the second-floor window!
The cold wind blew up the black hair in front of his forehead. The speed of flying in the sky was naturally much faster than running on the ground. He kept shortening the distance between him and Scabior, and at the same time raised his wand in almost the same way as Fred who fell behind him.
Scabior didn't dare waste even a moment looking back.
He kept running forward and had to endure Nick's verbal harassment.
"Muggled wizards from all over the world have united. We have captured the Ministry of Magic! We have captured the Dark Lord! We have sent him to the guillotine! Do not resist any longer!"
"Bullshit!"
Even though he knew Nick was just talking nonsense, Scabior couldn't help but refute the insults.
What he said was really too horrifying. During these years of rule, Voldemort had established his absolute authority and status.
Whether they are ordinary employees or Aurors, everyone working in the Ministry of Magic has an indescribable awe for this powerful man who cannot be expressed in words.
All those who enjoy power in today's system have received his favor. Under the combination of kindness and power, almost no one dares to imagine that such a powerful man will one day be killed.
But when Nick heard his ugly curse, he was not surprised but happy.
As long as there is a response, it is a profit for him. After all, he is just a ghost, so what if he can curse at him?
But once Scabior spoke, it meant that his heart was moved, and he diverted his attention to Nick, which was enough to help Jon and Fred who were chasing behind!
The next second after Scabior opened his mouth, two spells, blown along with the cold winter wind, exploded in his ears.
"Fainted!"
"Everyone is petrified!"
The red beams shot out, one up and one down, one in front and one behind, blocking Scabio's upper left and lower right positions tacitly, so that no matter where he dodged, he would be hit by a spell!
Scabior did not look back. His years of experience as an Auror had given him an exceptionally keen intuition.
After hearing the two spells, he did not evade to the left or right , but pounced forward with extremely fast movements!
With the help of inertia while running, he flew forward about two or three meters, and then rolled to the ground.
The spells that Jon and Fred had coordinated to almost completely lock him in place all missed the target and hit the gravel-covered ground, splashing a cloud of fine mud!
And this spiritual leap forward is not without cost.
The ground of Azkaban Island was littered with broken stones. As Scabior fell to the ground, his robe was cut into countless holes by the sharp stones. In order to prevent his face from hitting the ground and causing greater damage, his palms, which were used to support his body and absorb the force, were covered in blood.
But even though the piercing pain was piercing Scabio's brain, he had no intention of stopping.
He quickly got up from the ground, and when he was about to continue running forward in embarrassment, Jon took this opportunity to fly in front of him, and descended from the sky with the magic wand in his hand, blocking his way.
Fred also gasped and changed from running to walking, aiming at Scabio's back, completely blocking his way to escape.
Scabior was also breathing rapidly, his hand holding the wand was shaking constantly and blood was dripping down. At this moment, he truly saw what his enemy looked like.
Neither Jon nor Fred hid their looks, and their youthful appearance made him subconsciously shrink his pupils.
"You are... Mudbloods who followed those wizard rebels!"
He easily guessed the identities of John and the others. There was no one else in the world who looked so young and was against Voldemort's government.
Jon and Fred had no intention of communicating with him any further. Talking too much nonsense is never a good thing, so they cast the spell together without hesitation.
"Everyone is petrified!" *2
This time Scabior had no way out.
Two bright red beams hit him accurately from the front and the back. The moment he was hit by the petrification curse, his whole body stiffened instantly. He could only stare with his eyes constantly moving and fell backwards weakly.
Only at this time did Jon and Fred breathe a sigh of relief.
Unlike that loser McNeill, Scabior is obviously an Auror who has received formal training, and most likely an elite among them.
It was much more difficult to deal with him. In the end, if Jon hadn't had the air advantage and blocked his way from mid-air, he might have really escaped.
Fred gasped and cursed as he tied up Scabior with a rope.
"You're quite a fast runner, aren't you? Keep running! I almost broke my leg when I jumped down just now. Who would have thought, right? Jon can fly!"
The only response Scabio could give was that cold and fierce look he gave Fred. If he could kill with his eyes, Fred would have died ten times already.
After tying him up tightly, Jon finally removed the petrification curse.
After the spell was lifted from him, Scabior still pursed his lips tightly, staring at John with a look of extreme hatred, without saying a word.
Nick looked at him unhappily.
"He's still not convinced!"
Fred spat to the side in disdain and pulled the rope tighter.
Only Jon became alert. He felt something was wrong, and without any hesitation, he used an evil curse on Scabior that he had learned from the same book as Shenfeng Wuying!
"Seal the tongue and lock the throat!"
The spell hit the target accurately. The silencing spell made Scabior's tongue stick to the roof of his mouth, unable to move at all.
Only then did a trace of blood flow out of his mouth.
Fred and Nick were shocked to find that he had actually tried to bite off his tongue!
