In This Hogwarts Without a Savior

Chapter 172 170. Ghost Guide

It's not just the little captain.

Below the deck, other ghosts followed him and drifted out.

These were obviously ghosts dressed as sailors. Each of them had weapons in their hands and looked menacing, as if they were really preparing to rob Jon and his ship.

"Hand over the treasure! Little boys!" The little captain waved a saber half as long as his height, and the parrot standing on his shoulder screamed, "Captain Jack only wants money. Don’t kill me!”

Following Captain Jack, the menacing ghost sailors also shouted.

"Hand over the treasure! Spare your lives!"

Jon George and Neville looked at each other.

There was no trace of panic or fear on Gabrielle's face. Instead, she happily floated to the side of the same camp as the pirate ghost and shouted happily.

"Hand over the treasure! Spare your lives!"

She treated it like a role-playing game.

To be honest, when this ghost ship sailed towards them, its posture was indeed quite scary, but after seeing these ghosts standing up, Jon and the others felt that it was more like a farce.

Even if ghosts can still exist in the world of living people, they can no longer have any substantial impact on reality. At most, they can only scare uninformed wizards or Muggles.

But whether it is Jon, George or Neville, they are not ignorant people.

These ghost pirates look scary, but they can't do anything.

Jon asked tentatively.

"Well, I would like to ask Captain Jack, what kind of treasure do you need?"

"He is indeed a young boy!" The little captain raised his head proudly, and the parrot on his shoulder also said in a proud voice at the right time, "Of course we only want gold, silver and jewelry!"

"With all due respect, Captain, even if we have gold, silver and jewels for you, your ship can't take them away."

Captain Jack was furious, and the parrot on his shoulder seemed to be jumping in anger.

"How are you talking! Are you insulting Captain Jack!"

Jon was speechless. He felt more and more that these ghost pirates were just hanging out on the sea with nothing to do, and they came specifically to have fun with them.

And just as Captain Jack was waving the long knife angrily, with no way of causing any harm to Jon and the others, a helpless voice came from below the deck.

"Drake, stop messing around and don't forget your agreement with Dumbledore."

Another ghost floated up from below the deck. He had silver curly hair. He seemed to be middle-aged when he died. He was wearing a robe like a medieval nobleman.

The ghost that floated up at the end was very different from the pirate ghosts that came out before, just from its dress.

He looked kind, and when he saw Jon and the three of them, he nodded towards them in a friendly manner.

Just a horrifying scene happened.

I don’t know if it was because he nodded too hard, but his head suddenly fell away from his neck, leaving only a little bit of flesh and skin barely connecting his identity!

This scene made Jon and the others take a step back in shock. All they could hear was that the ghost whose head almost fell off his neck straightened his head again and then apologized continuously.

"Ah, I'm so sorry, but I think you can understand that the executioner who executed me didn't use the strength well so that my head was not completely chopped off. This made me very distressed. That's why I That’s why I’ve never been able to join the Headless Knights.”

He chattered nonchalantly and looked like a talkative person.

Captain Jack seemed to be very dissatisfied with the ghost who appeared later and whose style of painting was completely opposite to those of them. The parrot that kept jumping back and forth on his shoulder screamed.

"Stupid Nicholas! You ruined Captain Jack's plan! You have to compensate for all the gold and silver that was not obtained on the ship!"

"Hey! Don't be a joke to everyone here, Derek, it's time for you to complete your mission today. Didn't you just want to find a place to celebrate the festival? In fact, this is a good place."

The decapitated ghost known as Nicholas looked around on the Hogwarts with a relaxed expression. He twisted his neck so much that it made people worry whether his head would fall off his neck again in the next second. .

Jon heard the conversation between the ghost and Captain Jack, and he looked at the decapitated ghost with a strange expression and asked.

"Do you know Dumbledore, sir?"

"Although I prefer to be called Sir Nicholas, the more affectionate people call me Nick."

He introduced himself, and Jon finally realized who he was at this time.

The head with almost no skin but no beheading, Sir Nicholas, the almost headless Nick, this is the Gryffindor resident ghost in the original Hogwarts novel - Nicholas de Mimsy Porpington!

When Jon was lurking in the castle before, he had actually been wondering where the ghosts in Hogwarts had gone.

He neither saw them on the carriage nor in the castle, but he did not expect to see one of them now that he had left British territory.

George's eyes widened when he heard Nick introduce himself. He had obviously heard of this name.

"I seem to have heard of you. Bill told me that when he first entered Hogwarts Castle and before he fled with the carriage, there was a ghost in Gryffindor called 'Nearly Headless Nick'!"

Nick didn't seem to be satisfied with George's title at all, and he said a little self-defeatingly.

"Well, I knew that someone would always remember this nickname! I've been away from that castle for so long, I didn't expect that I haven't gotten rid of it yet!"

He muttered a few words, but he still did not forget the serious matter that Jon had just asked.

"As the red-haired boy said, I used to be the resident ghost of Gryffindor House, Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, but after that castle was occupied by people who shouldn't occupy it, I left there. . After all, there is no Gryffindor House anymore, so there is no need for me to continue to stay there.”

"After I left, I traveled in the wizarding world for a while with the fat monk who was the resident ghost of Hodgepatch. But Dumbledore found me and wanted me to do something for him, so I joined the German army. Lake's fleet has been drifting on the sea for many years. Then not long ago, Dumbledore sent me a letter saying that you have entered the sea and specifically asked me to come to you and be your guide."
