Chapter 335: Fire Dragon's Little Brother
"Roar!"
A piercing dragon roar echoed in the underground space. Under the attack of this terrifying sound wave, almost everyone on the scene instinctively covered their ears.
Immediately afterwards, Mike and others felt a huge black shadow passing by them, followed by a violent airflow that stirred Mike and others to the ground.
"Dragon! Fire Dragon!"
Zhou Hong raised his head and pointed his finger at the sky and shouted excitedly.
Everyone looked in the direction he pointed, and saw a huge fire dragon with mottled colors flying straight up towards the golden light column.
This fire dragon suffered many injuries in the previous battle. A large amount of scarlet blood dripped from its wounds, mixed with the dust reflected by the bright golden light in the air and fell to the ground, forming large pieces of black turbid blood.
But despite such a serious injury, there was no pain on the face of the fire dragon. On the contrary, Mike even felt endless joy from this fire dragon flying towards the sun!
Mike was definitely not the only one who felt this way. In fact, almost all the Aurors in the underground space stopped attacking at this time. Everyone was silently watching the fire dragon flying towards freedom.
"What are you doing? Quickly shoot down the fire dragon for me!"
An untimely voice suddenly appeared in the underground space. Everyone looked over and saw that the lion man had already caught up with the Aurors.
What Mike didn't know was that this middle-aged man who looked like an old lion was the current director of the Auror Office of the Ministry of Magic, Rufus Scrimgeour!
Scrimgeour's face was ferocious at the moment. Today was an unlucky day for him.
When he first came to Gringotts with the Aurors, he thought it was just an ordinary robbery, and the criminals should be ordinary dark wizards. In front of their elite Auror troops, these people should be completely crushed.
However, the fighting power and ferocity of Mike and others far exceeded his imagination.
They dared to use the Fiendish Fire Curse in such a place! ?
Could it be that they didn't know that Diagon Alley was outside Gringotts?
If the Fiendfyre gets out of control and burns to Diagon Alley, thousands of people will die!
Thinking of this, Scrimgeour's expression became even more ferocious.
Facing such terrorists, one must act as fast as thunder!
Seeing this, the Aurors were terrified. They looked like elementary school students who were caught sleeping in class by their teachers. They hurriedly waved their wands and began to attack the dragon in the sky.
Compared with the agile and tiny Mike and others, the dragon was obviously a good target. The Aurors worked together, and a series of red unknown spells rose into the air, and soon many new wounds were added to the dragon.
"Ho-ho!"
The dragon staggered in the air, and its flying speed slowed down a lot.
However, it did not mean to stop at all, and it was still flying towards the beam of light.
"Captain!"
Zhou Hong shouted anxiously. It can be seen that he likes this dragon who yearns for freedom very much.
Everyone's eyes fell on Mike, waiting for him to give the next order.
"Everyone, listen up, let's catch up!" Mike pointed in the direction of the dragon and said expressionlessly, "Remember, use Z-shaped maneuvers to fly, and remember not to be shot down!"
"Understood!"
Everyone said in unison, and then everyone turned into a shadow under the movement of the Firebolt and flew towards the dragon!
The Aurors below were still throwing dense barrages upwards, but Mike and others were very cunning. Not only did they use Z-shaped maneuvers to avoid most of the spells, they even used the few gaps to help the dragon resist damage.
Scrimgeour was so anxious that he almost jumped up.
This time he mobilized a large number of elite Aurors. If he still couldn't catch Mike and other robbers, the combat effectiveness of the Aurors of the Ministry of Magic would inevitably be doubted by the public.
If it was just like this, it would be fine, but once it was doubted by the public, not only would he, the office director, step down, but even the budget of the Auror Force next year might be reduced!
At this moment, he sincerely hoped that his subordinates could have a little bit of luck so that they could shoot down one of the robbers in the sky.
In this way, he could get information about the robbers from that person!
Unfortunately, the heavens did not respond to Scrimgeour's prayers. Even when the dragon, Mike and the others were close to the hole, the Aurors did not shoot down anything.
"Chase them! Get on your brooms and chase them!"
Scrimgeour roared with a red face, but the guards beside him were embarrassed when they heard it, and said:
"Sir, those robbers are riding Firebolts, we can't chase them..."
The guard who was speaking suddenly froze. What appeared in front of him was a pair of terrifying, bloodshot eyes. The madness in those eyes made the guard tremble instinctively.
Then, the guard had an idea and took out his flying broom to chase Mike and the others. While chasing, he was still shouting to get his companions to move.
"Swish, swish, swish!"
Looking at the Aurors rising into the air around him, Scrimgeour's face was already full of clouds.
How could he not know that the standard Auror special flying broom can't catch up with the Firebolt, a customized broom of the championship level.
But if you don't chase, it's an attitude problem!
Sighing, Scrimgeour limped away into the darkness.
Now that Mike and the other robbers have escaped, he needs to go back and discuss the aftermath with Fudge.
At the same time, Diagon Alley outside Gringotts is a scene of singing and dancing.
It is summer vacation, and the streets are crowded with people, most of whom are parents who come shopping with their children.
The merchants are also shouting, hoping to attract pedestrians on the street.
A young mother is chatting with her best friend, but her young son is pulling her skirt.
"Mom! Look, it's a dragon!"
The child put his finger in his mouth, tilted his head, and said incoherently.
The mother was delighted when she heard this, and lowered her head and said,
"How is this possible? This is Diagon Alley, and there won't be any dragons in Diagon Alley. Be good, wait a few days, and I'll take you to the dragon farm to see the dragons, okay?"
"But, mom, there are really dragons in the sky!"
The child's mother also felt something was wrong, and instinctively raised her head, only to see thick smoke coming out of the roof of Gringotts not far away. At the same time, a dragon was struggling to pull the bricks on the roof, trying to squeeze out of the narrow hole.
"Ho-ao!"
A loud dragon roar accompanied by scarlet flames came out of the dragon's mouth, echoing in the sky above Diagon Alley.
Along with the dragon roar, the shopping bag held by the child's mother fell to the ground with a "click", but its owner still kept looking up in a daze, not noticing it at all.
"Ah! Run!"
Suddenly, not just one person roared, but the people on the entire Diagon Alley were boiling.
Except for a few idiots who were still curiously looking at the fire dragon in the sky, most people rushed to the nearest fireplace. The noise and crying mixed together, and it was very lively.
At this time, Mike and others also followed the fire dragon and escaped from Gringotts.
"Wow! This is so cool!"
Facing the slightly sultry wind in July, Franklin, who was riding on the Firebolt, spread his hands and cheered.
The other team members around also had smiles on their faces. Everyone was happy that the plan could go smoothly this time, even the cold Victor was no exception.
But at this moment, Mike said coldly:
"Don't be happy too early, they are catching up!"
As soon as the voice fell, a pale green magic spell whistled over Franklin's head.
The sudden attack scared Franklin. His body shrank suddenly, and he shrugged his hips, trying his best to fit his body on the broom, and he no longer dared to cheer like before.
Franklin couldn't be blamed for being timid, because the green spell just now was the Killing Curse!
"They actually started using the Killing Curse! What should we do now?"
Looking at the Auror who suddenly appeared behind everyone, Franklin shouted in fear. The Killing Curse just now almost took his life.
"Don't worry, our brooms are all Firebolts, they can't catch up!" Mike said coldly, "Besides, don't you know how to fight back?"
After that, Mike took the lead and shot three God-Front Shadowless Curses silently at the Aurors behind him.
Seeing this, everyone also took action, and in a flash, an air battle between wizards broke out.
However, this kind of battle is actually quite boring. Relying on the flying brooms, the movement speed and mobility of both sides are too strong. It is extremely difficult to rely on spells to hit the target in this environment.
Mike was the only sharpshooter who could pose a threat to the Aurors behind him. Benjamin and his friends' spells basically flew away once they left their wands, not to mention hitting the target.
In the battle with the Aurors, Mike also vaguely understood why wizards were so keen on Quidditch.
It seemed that the Quidditch game itself was a cover-up. The guys in the Ministry of Magic were using Quidditch to train the flying skills of the young wizards!
Take the group of Aurors chasing behind them, for example. In terms of flying skills alone, these people were no worse than some professional Quidditch players!
Unfortunately, as time went by, the distance between Mike and the Aurors behind the dragon was slowly widening. Franklin was relieved when he saw this, and his curled-up body gradually stretched out.
"Captain, we have left the range of the no-fly ban and can use the door key!"
Benjamin's voice made everyone happy, but Zhou Hong frowned.
"Okay, then let's go back quickly. Hopefully we can still make it in time for lunch!"
Mike's cold face finally showed a smile, and he took out the Masonic gold coin.
"Wait!"
Zhou Hong's anxious voice made Mike's hand stop moving. He frowned and turned around, only to see Zhou Hong pointing at the old fire dragon in front and saying,
"If we leave, what will happen to it? Those Aurors will definitely kill it!"
Looking at Zhou Hong's anxious look, Mike knew what he was thinking.
Pouting, Mike said,
"You can take it back, but you must raise it yourself!"
After that, Mike and the others pressed the gold coin in their hands, and disappeared in the air with a bang.
Zhou Hong also showed a smile on his face. He controlled the fire crossbow to land on the back of the fire dragon, raised his middle finger to the Aurors who were still chasing behind him, and then pressed the gold coin in his hand!
...
In the magic training square of the Masonic Secret Realm, Penelope, Soraka and others were waiting anxiously.
Suddenly, a ripple appeared in the space in the center of the square, and then the ripple expanded at an alarming speed. Finally, accompanied by a burst of explosions, Mike and others finally returned to the Masonic secrets.
"Mike!"
Penelope wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and threw herself into Mike's arms.
Looking again, Franklin and Benjamin had a similar scene.
However, Mike did not intend to continue to linger with Penelope. He hugged Penelope and dodged to the side, saying,
"Scatter quickly!"
Benjamin and others were stunned when they heard this, not understanding why Mike was so excited.
But today's experience in Gringotts made them develop conditioned reflexes, and they instinctively followed Mike's orders and dodged.
The next moment, accompanied by a particularly huge explosion in the space, a fire dragon more than 20 meters high appeared out of thin air in the square.
The fire dragon was obviously confused about being suddenly teleported here, shaking its head and observing the surroundings with its severely degraded eyes that were covered with a layer of white film.
Finally, when it found itself in a completely enclosed square, it was angry.
"Hoo-ah!"
With a desperate wail, the huge fire dragon flapped its wings and opened its mouth to spit fire.
Unfortunately, before it could launch an attack, Mike and others had already reacted, and powerful sleeping spells fell on it like raindrops. This
is a common method used by dragon trainers to deal with fire dragons. Although the fire dragon in front of them is huge, it can't withstand such an attack. After struggling for a while, it fell to the ground and snored.
"Why is it here!?"
Benjamin held his head in surprise. Seeing this, Mike said to Zhou Hong:
"Your dragon, take care of yourself."
Hearing this, Zhou Hong scratched his head embarrassedly and stuck out his tongue.
Mike walked to the corner of the square without looking back, where a magic circle was engraved with the spell of the end of all curses.
This magic circle was prepared by Mike a long time ago, and it was specially used to purify the treasures brought out of Bella's vault.
Everyone put the treasures brought out of Bella's vault into the magic circle. After a while, a small mountain was piled up in the circle.
However, at this moment, everyone's attention was not on this crazy gold mountain. Instead, the slightly dull gold cup in Mike's hand attracted everyone's attention!
