Chapter 276 The Magic of Flying
Red hair, platinum-gold luster, high nose bridge, fair skin, this is the standard Celtic appearance.
Anton stared at his appearance in the magic mirror, and smiled slightly, "Forget it, I can't go back, just live a good life as Anthony Weasley."
"My hometown is where my heart is at ease, so let's take root here."
Appearance doesn't matter, he's still him.
The soul is the essence of a wizard, he can change back to his original appearance at any time, of course, he can also change into the appearance of a 'color-changing wind bird' at any time.
Yes, the color-changing bird is also one of his bodies.
Just a different side of the same him.
It is said that there is no change, but there are some differences. After so much experience, people should mature a lot.
In the mirror, I looked more stable.
Yes, people always have a process of growth.
Anton tapped lightly on the mirror, making it disappear in front of his eyes, and walked out from the dark clouds and thunder.
Stretching, he stared at the huge rune snake looking for an exit in the stone corridor.
"Barty Crouch Jr."
This is one of the less well-documented but particularly complex characters in the Harry Potter stories.
He has an upright politician father and a mother who loves him so much that she is even willing to die for him, but he has taken a different path from Harry Potter.
In other words, they are all the same, pure, persistent, brave, self-sacrificing, and excellent.
It's just that Harry Potter met Dumbledore, and Barty Jr. met Voldemort.
Little Barty was an excellent person during his studies. 12 OWLS wizard certificates are not an achievement that everyone can achieve. After graduation, he followed Voldemort and became a loyal Death Eater.
His loyalty was absolutely recognized by Voldemort. Voldemort told Little Barty his past, including his former name Tom Riddle, including killing his own father. It is conceivable that when they get along, it is not a simple master-servant relationship.
Perhaps in the eyes of Batty Jr., this idol, master, and the strong man he follows are more like his father.
Later Voldemort fell, other Death Eaters beat him out in order to survive, he was imprisoned in Azkaban, his mother drank polyjuice potion instead of him and died in Azkaban.
When the effect of the medicine has not yet expired, the transformation effect of the compound decoction will always be maintained after death.
And he was locked up at home by his painful father, let the house elf look at him, never communicated, cast the Imperius Curse on him for more than ten years, and controlled him simply and roughly, just to prevent him from leaving Home to find Voldemort.
After that, he escaped and captured the old Auror Moody, who had a good record in the wizarding world, without disturbing anyone, and disguised himself as Moody with Polyjuice Potion.
In front of Dumbledore and other colleagues of the Order of the Phoenix who have been similar to Moody for many years, he did not show any flaws. One installation is one year.
Now, of course, everything is empty.
Barty Jr. turns into a rune snake.
A magical effect similar to Animagus, similar to the curse of time, similar to the blood curse, even more tragic than the blood curse, Nagini can still struggle between humans and vipers, little Barty is now completely sunk in the body of a beast.
Seeing Anton, the rune snake screamed and rushed over.
Snapped.
With a snap of his fingers, countless ropes bound him completely.
Professor Quirrell is indeed a very powerful person. He has developed this kind of Rope Curse, which is naturally powerful against huge monsters.
"Everyone has their own way to go."
Anton pursed his lips, "Since you became like this because of me, let me give you some hope."
Waving his magic wand, a ray of sunlight lightly floated onto the head of the rune snake, "Let the rest be left to fate."
Release the levitation spell, put the rune snake into the suitcase, and Anton strolled out.
Go out step by step along the stone steps of the castle, pass the Black Lake, walk into the Forbidden Forest, and go deep all the way to the place where thestrals live.
Soon, thestrals flapped their huge bat wings and soared into the sky.
Target, Albania.
There is an extremely vast forest here, enough for this rune snake to live on.
Far away from the wizarding world, away from all the hustle and bustle of the world.
The suitcase was opened, and the Rune Snake came out. He looked up at Anton sitting on the back of the Thestral in the sky, hissed and swallowed the letter, and turned his head into the forest.
Anton didn't leave right away, but just looked at the forest silently.
In the end, he let out a faint breath, and touched the head of the Thestral, and the Thestral also stretched out his head and stroked his palm.
"Fate is sometimes very strange, right?" Anton smiled slightly, "Sometimes I am such an inexplicable person, leaving some people with a little kindness."
Is that good?
still not good?
Anton himself didn't know, maybe this was him, not a black wizard, nor a white wizard.
"Let's go!"
"Back to Hogwarts!"
"Be a good student and make progress every day."
“Wuhu~~~”

How fast are thestrals?
It is mentioned in the original book that it is faster than the latest broomstick, the Firebolt.
So, how fast is the Firebolt?
The Firebolt can go from standstill to 150 miles per hour, or 241 kilometers per hour, in ten seconds.
so……
What kind of brainless game is Quidditch? It already explains the problem. If you scratch something at this speed, you will definitely die.
So, are thestrals the fastest flying creatures?
Not! The fastest is Voldemort.
When transferring Harry Potter in the original book, his companions drank compound potion, and seven Harry Potters ascended to the sky on broomsticks to escape at the same time. Voldemort, relying on a powerful self-created flying spell, first caught up with Moody, then turned his head and turned around. After catching up with Kingsley in another direction, Harry Potter was able to catch up with him when he was about to run to Tonks' house.
What kind of magical speed is this, even if it is calculated with some short-distance apparitions, it is still very outrageous.
In the original book, there are only two people who can fly without any tools, except Voldemort, who is Snape who was taught the flying spell.
As for Anton's own flying speed with the floating spell...
That is floating, not flying, if you really want to use it to escape, it will make people desperate.
Therefore, Anton, who was riding on the Thestral, climbed onto its body.
Anton quickly drew the magic image of thestrals.
This is not easy, the magic image of thestrals is extremely complicated, so complicated that it makes people desperate. It's as if someone who can draw mechanical drawings sees an airplane, wants to draw it, and ends up looking at each intricate part with despair.
Anton looked at the Thestral's lightly swaying bat wings, and felt the scenery receding rapidly. He was very sure that this kind of flight must rely on some kind of magic.
This must be the magical ability of Fantastic Beasts.
Just relying on the power of flesh and blood, it is impossible to support the Thestrals to fly across the country at such an exaggerated speed.
