Chapter 225 The Whomping Willow with No Whole Body

A T-30 weighing more than 34 tons crossed the sky and rushed toward Hogwarts Castle.

Because of the financial support of his two outstanding sons, Mr. Weasley did not need to use cheap materials when rebuilding the tank. The performance of the tank was several times higher than the old Ford car in the original book.

However, the weight of the tank determines that it cannot fly long distances.

After all, its flying device is modified from a flying broomstick. Although the performance of the Blackbird broomstick manufactured by Albert is much more abnormal than that of the Firebolt, it cannot withstand the more than 30-ton body of the tank.

It would be great if it could carry Harry and Ron all the way from King's Cross Station to Hogwarts.

When approaching Hogwarts Castle, Ron was horrified to find that the flying tank he was driving was out of control!

Seeing the walls of Hogwarts Castle getting closer and closer, Ron turned the steering wheel frantically, "Turn around! Turn around quickly!"

The T-34 drew a curved line, and its tracks rubbed heavily on the outer wall of the castle, scratching a deep mark on the wall.

Fortunately, the wall was avoided.

Before Ron could relax, Harry screamed again: "Ron! Ron! We're going to hit a tree!"

The tank flew faster and faster, heading straight for the Whomping Willow with a thundering momentum.

boom!

With the crisp sound of trees bursting, even Albert and Dumbledore, who were far away in the principal's office on the eighth floor of the castle, heard the mournful cry of the Whomping Willow.

"Professor, you have a lot to do next." Albert's tone contained a hint of schadenfreude.

He could have stopped Harry and Ron on the train and brought them to the train, but he did not take action.

He has a bad personality and just wants to watch the fun.

Only then did Dumbledore remember that in the afternoon, Vilia reported to him through the double-sided mirror about Harry and Ron driving a tank to Hogwarts to attend school.

After glaring at Albert, who was in a theatrical state, Dumbledore hurriedly left the principal's office.

……

The current appearance of the Whomping Willow can be described as very miserable.

If it were the old Ford antique car in the original book, even if Harry, Ron and the messy luggage were included, the total weight would not exceed two tons.

But the T-32 tank with a total combat weight of 34 tons, even if Mr. Weasley replaced the original heavy engine with a broomstick power system, reduced some weight, and did not carry artillery shells, would still weigh [-] tons.

The greater the weight, the greater the kinetic energy.

So the Whomping Willow is tragic.

Where the tank hit, those branches were basically crushed into slag.

The Whomping Willow was angry.

As a precious tree species, it received better treatment than humans at Hogwarts.

It enjoys the careful care of Professor Sprout. Even the golden fertilizer used for fertilization is the best fertilizer made by Hagrid himself using fresh dragon dung. It has grown smoothly in Hogwarts for decades. Never suffered any harm.

And today, someone was so mad that they ran a tank into its face?

The Whomping Willow wildly waved its remaining branches as thick as a python, regardless of whether it could be twitched or not. In short, it was frantically beating the culprit in front of it - the T-34 Flying Tank.

The output of the Whomping Willow is effective.

It used a scraping whip technique and successfully scraped off the T-34's tracks.

Oh, it's over.

The T-34 is lying down.

Ron originally wanted to take advantage of the tank's rough skin and thick flesh to withstand the attack of the Whomping Willow, and drive the tank beyond the attack range of the Whomping Willow before getting off the vehicle. Unexpectedly, the tank actually collapsed!

The hatch door that was not closed from the inside was suddenly opened, and the branches of the Whomping Willow got in through the hatch door.

"Ron! Do something!" Harry yelled at Ron at the top of his lungs as he tried his best to resist the branches that wanted to get in.

"Yes! Yes! Do something..." Ron groped for something under the seat with trembling hands.

After groping for a while, just when Harry could no longer hold on, Ron finally touched what he wanted.

A cold touch came into his hand, Ron pushed hard, and a round metal object rolled out from under the seat.

After a lot of effort, Ron stuffed this thing into the barrel of the tank gun.

The T-34, which could only be beaten passively, let out its own roar. Ron and Harry sitting in the cockpit felt that their ears were going deaf.

Fortunately, this shell worked.

Ron had no idea how to adjust the muzzle pointing of the tank gun, but he managed to survive. From the position of the T-34, the tank gun was pointed right at the trunk of the Whomping Willow.

Ron used a tank cannon to perform this superb operation, directly blasting the Whomping Willow until only a broken and mangled tree stump was left there. It was obvious that it would not survive.

Pomona Sprout, whose body was always stained with dirt, stood stunned not far from the T-34.

She hurried over from the auditorium after hearing the noise.

The result was still a step too late.

A branch of the Whomping Willow rolled to Professor Sprout's feet. She stared blankly at everything in front of her.

It took her a long time to come back to her senses.

"What have you done!" Professor Sprout, who has always been gentle, has never been so angry.

……

Harry and Ron were taken to her office by Professor McGonagall.

"Do you know how serious this matter is! You almost exposed the entire magical world to Muggles!" Professor McGonagall sternly reprimanded the two young wizards who were trembling like quails in front of them.

If she hadn't arrived in time, Harry and Ron might have been killed by Professor Sprout.

Snape suggested sinisterly: "If these two were students of Slytherin House, I would have expelled them long ago."

Professor McGonagall ignored Snape's suggestion, "Why did you two drive a tank over to school?"

"We... when we were heading to platform nine and three-quarters, the entrance was suddenly blocked for some reason." Harry said softly.

Snape smiled, "Blocked? Is that your excuse, Mr. Potter?"

"Even if the passage is blocked, you should write a letter to inform the professor instead of making the decision without authorization!" Professor McGonagall said angrily.

Neither Harry nor Ron dared to look at Professor McGonagall, whose eyes were burning with rage.

"If school hadn't started yet, otherwise each of you would be deducted a hundred points. I would write to your parents and tell them everything that happened today." After thinking about it, Professor McGonagall added, "At the same time , I will also punish you two to stay in school and work."

Harry and Ron, who had their heads drooped, nodded weakly, indicating that they had no objection to the punishment announced by Professor McGonagall.

In Snape's opinion, Professor McGonagall's punishment for these two little bastards was still too light.

But he didn't speak, and Lily was watching in the mirror dimension. If he dared to mention anything about expulsion, Lily would probably never talk to him again in this life.

Snape the dog licker wisely chose to keep his mouth shut.

"Now, go back to the banquet, otherwise you will miss the sorting ceremony." Professor McGonagall said expressionlessly.

Compared with Harry and Ron, two trouble-making masters, she now actually thinks Albert is a good boy.

No no no, you can't think like this.

Albert is still the most wanted criminal in the Ministry of Magic.

After leaving Professor McGonagall's office, Harry and Ron breathed a long sigh of relief.

Survived.
