Chapter 324: Chapter 324
End the battle in 10 minutes?
Lockhart's voice came to their ears, and Snape's expression froze.
He had no intention of ending in a draw. He just lost, even if it was a draw, in the end he still lost.
It was humiliating to be defeated by a Muggle, no, a Muggle with a magic item.
Snape thought to himself.
Immediately, he waved the wand in his hand and drew a beautiful arc towards Steve.
Silent casting - Incendio!
call!
Almost instantly, hot flames rose up from Steve's circle and surrounded him.
And cover toward the center, where Steve is.
Many squib wizards felt the heat wave coming towards them, and their eyes were closely watching the reaction of their teacher Steve.
At this moment, Steve looked at the flames that were quickly covering the surroundings, or it would be more appropriate to say a sea of fire.
As if he felt the flame, which was high enough to burn into char in a short time, his expression changed slightly.
However, he did not panic too much, but raised the shield in his hand. At the same time, a low call sounded.
Protect!
At this moment, Captain America Steve's shield emits a large amount of soft but very tough yellow light. In just a second or two, they entangle with each other and form a yellow ball of light, covering his surroundings.
There were flames everywhere, like an ocean of flames, and the scorching heat wave hit Steve face, causing the students on the side to step back one after another.
Lockhart saw this, because the wand in his hand was instantly in front of the students, and a thin but very tough transparent wall appeared in front of everyone.
The students suddenly felt that the heat wave disappeared, and a sense of coolness filled the surroundings.
At this moment, the sea of fire in their eyes was burning more and more fiercely, and not far away, the figure of Professor Snape appeared.
As Snape kept waving his wand, the hot flames seemed to form a tornado, spinning continuously.
It seems to be restricting or imprisoning the other party.
The center of the tornado was Steve's location.
However...
A faint yellow light can be seen in the flaming tornado.
Immediately afterwards, the yellow light continued to shine, as if it was constantly impacting the tornado.
boom! boom! boom!
At this moment, Steve was holding a shield, and an yellow circular defensive cover enveloped him
At this moment, Lockhart nodded slightly when he saw Steve who was completely resistant to the magic attack.
The magic in the world of Harry Potter relies on emotion, will, and to be precise, the power of the heart.
Whether it is black magic or white magic, you need to integrate your emotions before you can successfully cast it.
Compared with ordinary people, Captain America is very good in all aspects, but his best thing is his strong will.
Steve's shield was engraved with runes by Lockhart and added magical power, using Steve's will as the medium to increase the magical effect.
Not only does it have certain demon-crushing attributes, but more importantly, it has a defensive spell that inspires special attributes.
That is, the stronger the will, the better the defence effect.
This is a magical item specially crafted by Lockhart based on Steve's characteristics.
It is also a magical item that is typical of the Harry Potter world.
At this moment, Captain America waved his shield again and hit the flame tornado in front of him hard.
boom! boom! boom!
With each hit making a dull banging sound, the flame tornado was somewhat deformed and seemed to be broken.
After seeing it, Snape frowned and continued to wave his wand. A large amount of magic flowed into the wand, supplementing the spell, further increasing the rotation of the flame tornado, further increasing the distortion, trying to break the defensive shield.
The flame tornado rotated rapidly and roared, but it seemed to have no impact on Steve in the center. Steve kept waving his shield to try to break it, and the speed of movement became faster and faster, and the banging sound became louder and louder. The more urgent
With every collision, the yellow light will eventually flash, which is the shield's demon-crushing properties taking effect.
Snape only felt that with every collision, his control over the flames became unstable.
Although he recovered quickly, as the opponent's swings became faster and faster, his control over the tornado had significantly declined.
It won't even be long before the other party breaks through the encirclement and the spell becomes completely ineffective.
His thoughts turned and he relaxed the control of the magic spell in his hand.
The crashing sounds appeared one after another like raindrops, and the frequency became faster and faster.
The tornado has begun to show noticeable distortions, and the shield even broke the flame tornado at one point.
boom!
As a dull shield collision sounded, the tornado gradually dissipated, leaking out of the yellow defensive cover, where Steve was looking around.
Just when Steve's figure emerged.
"Lamina Mortis!"
Snape waved the wand in his hand and cast his best dark magic.
Time is limited, no matter what method he use, win first.
Without anyone noticing, a series of transparent sharp blades quickly shot towards the yellow defensive cover.
Click! Click!
Everyone heard a clicking sound from their ears, and then saw that the yellow defensive cover in front of Steve was a little dim, and even had cracks visible to the naked eye.
This made all the students slightly nervous.
But then, with Steve's tenacious will, the yellow defensive shield recovered at a speed visible to the naked eye.
This made Snape across from him flash a look of surprise in his eyes.
But he still didn't relax the wand in his hand and continued to wave it, shooting a large amount of black magic with considerable aggression towards Steve again.
" Lamina Mortis!"
"Sectumsempra!"
"."
Lockhart raised his eyebrows slightly when he saw the black magic mixed with red, yellow, green, gray and other colors of light in front of him.
Fortunately, Snape had not directly cast the Unforgivable Curse, otherwise, he would have stopped it.
A duel is a duel, but if there is serious injury or even death, that is another matter.
At this moment, Steve sensed the death-like danger brought by the curse, his expression changed, and he quickly rolled towards the ground to avoid it.
At the same time, he waved the shield in his hand vigorously and hit Snape on the opposite side.
Trying to disrupt the other party's ability to cast spells.
Looking at the shield coming towards him, Snape seemed not to notice it at all.
Let it hit him, but the moment the shield comes into contact with his body
puff! puff!
Along with a slight bubble, the shield passed directly through Snape's body.
At the same time, Snape's figure reappeared not far away.
When Steve saw it, he was stunned, and then realized that he had been fooled.
He thought something bad in his heart, and ran forward at the same time, stretching out his right hand, ready to quickly take back the shield.
At this moment, the shield was preparing to fly back to Steve's hand along a strange arc.
Buzz!
In mid-air, a dark green giant hand suddenly appeared and grasped the shield fiercely.
After a previous battle, Snape knew that Steve's combat power was largely due to the magic shield in his hand.
As long as the shield is restrained, it will be easy to solve later.
Therefore, since he cannot directly defeat the opponent through magic, then set a trap to make the opponent lose the weapon.
boom!
With a banging sound, the shield hit the palm of the giant green hand, and a large number of cracks appeared in the palm. But the next moment, the entire shield was firmly held by the giant green hand, and it was impossible to break free.
Seeing this, Snape had a smile on his face.
After Steve saw it, although he frowned slightly, he still did not slow down. He held a dagger and galloped directly towards Snape.
"Tranfigure!"
Snape waved his wand continuously, and several transformation spells fell on the ground in front of him.
The flat, solid ground quickly turned into a swamp under the influence of magic.
He finally understood that Steve, who taught close combat, had extremely rich combat experience and a high sense of danger.
Casting a magic attack on him will only end up being dodged.
Therefore, after removing the opponent's powerful weapons, directly change the environment and impose restrictions, step by step, to maximize the advantage of magic.
Just like playing chess, you subtract the opponent's help one by one, and finally defeat the opponent.
This is the combat experience that Snape summed up based on many years of combat experience.
Steve felt that when his feet stepped on the swamp-like ground, especially when his feet were sunk deeply into the sticky mud, it took more effort than before, and his movements became slower as a result.
This made Steve's heart sink.
If this continues, he will become a living target in a short time.
Without the defense of his shield, there is only one final result - failure!
Snape waved his wand again, and ropes made of soil appeared on the ground, binding every part of Steve's body in an attempt to further restrict the other party's movements.
Although Steve tried to avoid the struggle, but faced with Snape who was fully prepared, he was finally tied tightly and completely unable to move.
"Professor Snape, I lost"
The sound of Steve admitting defeat brought a smile to Snape's face.
At the same time, he waved the magic wand lightly to cancel the magic in his hand. The dark green giant hand floating in the air slowly opened, and the shield fell back into Steve's hand.
Clap! Clap! Clap!
"Class, this is a wonderful battle. Let us applaud Professor Snape and Instructor Steve!"
After hearing this, the surrounding squib wizards applauded one after another. For a moment, the entire training room was filled with roaring applause.
After Snape and Steve saw it, a smile appeared on their faces involuntarily.
"Students, there is a lot to learn from that battle just now."
"For example, Instructor Steve is always calm and composed, and Snape uses all kinds of magic to coordinate cleverly."
"."
Lockhart then took this opportunity to tell these students what they should study hard for in the future.
These people are all good prospects and will be the backbone of his new school in the future.
At this moment, Steve and Snape saw Lockhart, who was speaking like giving a lecture. They looked at each other, and they had a very tacit understanding, and they were speechless.
The two stood together and communicated quietly.
Steve first praised the use od Snape's magic.
Snape also praised Steve's quick reactions.
In the process of communicating quietly, the tense atmosphere between the two of them gradually disappeared.
"Captain, you won the first spar. What kind of magic item do you want?"
After Lockhart finished speaking to the students, he turned towards Steve and asked with a smile.
After hearing what Lockhart said, Steve was silent for a moment, with some hesitation on his face.
On the one hand, he was embarrassed to ask for it after losing for the second spar. On the other hand, he was not sure about the magic item he wanted.
Seeing Steve's expression, Lockhart smiled and decided directly for him: "Captain, I feel that you lack some means to dodge. Otherwise, this time when facing Snape's magical attack, your body will not be easily restricted."
"In this way, I can give you a magic item that is suitable for you. It is a pair of boots. I will look for it when I go back and give it to you then."
Hearing what Lockhart said, Steve was stunned for a moment, and then said gratefully: "Thank you, Professor Lockhart."
"Snape, you should have a rough idea of Captain Steve's strength by now. Ordinary wizards and even Aurors are no match for him."
Hearing Lockhart's praise of Steve, Snape nodded silently without saying anything more.
"Melee combat ability, Snape, I suggest you also try to understand it."
"Because our enemies are no longer limited to wizards and sorcerers, there will not only be demons, but other life forms from other dimensions, and even gods may appear. We don't ask for melee combat to become a different of ourselves, but we must not let it become our shortcomings, flaws, or even fatal weaknesses."
Upon hearing this, Snape nodded slowly as if understanding.
Then, Lockhart was heard saying: "Snape, you win the second spar, and the mysterious gift is prepared for you. I've obtained a quota here that can take you into Kamar Taj's sorcerer's secret realm. There's a ton of material out there, all available for free."
"The Sorcerer's Secret Realm?" After hearing what Lockhart said, Snape asked with confusion on his face: "Is it something similar to the Forbidden Forest of Hogwarts?"
After hearing what Lockhart said, Snape's first impression was of the Forbidden Forest.
The Forbidden Forest contains not only a large number of magical animals, but also a lot of precious magic materials.
And this happens to be the common material supply place for Hogwarts professors.
After Lockhart heard it, he thought about it carefully, nodded and said, "It's almost the same as it."
"It's just that what we need to pay attention to is that the sorcerer's secret realm is not a forest, but a medium-sized dimensional space. You can also understand it as a small world that specializes in cultivating sorcerer materials. It was made from the trophies obtained by Kamar Taj's Supreme Sorcerer from killing the Dimension Demon."
