A certain Hogwarts rune professor

Chapter 49 Exhibition Tournament

"Then next..." Lockhart stammered slightly, "I think it's best to teach you how to stop unfriendly magic, yes, unfriendly, just like I wrote in the book...to record my personal experience Like that."

"Volunteer to come up as a couple, please—Longbottom and Finlayry, how are you? Professor Hape, Professor Snape, we'd better leave the stage to them..."

Felix played with his wand carelessly, "Good suggestion, Professor Lockhart. But before that, I think it is necessary to let the little wizards understand what a real duel is like, even if it is a performance duel."

Lockhart's expression froze for a moment, "Well, I..." He looked around and found that the young wizards in the audience were very interested in this, so he was speechless.

"Professor Snape, what do you think?" Felix asked Snape who had been silent all this time.

The potions professor looked at him with deep and unexpected eyes, and he parted his lips into a smile, "Are you going to duel with me, Felix?"

"It's just an exhibition game."

Neither of them took Lockhart into account.

Snape took a deep look at him, without saying anything, simply drew out his wand.

Lockhart, who was embarrassed by the side, suddenly realized that he had miraculously escaped from the center of the vortex, and his face became enthusiastic again, "It seems that our course will temporarily add a duel, let us welcome the two professors !"

This time, the audience applauded warmly, and Ron happily chanted to Harry, "To be honest, I've been waiting for this day for too long! Do you think Snape will be hospitalized?"

As a "powerful fan" of Professor Haipu, he naturally stood by Felix.

"It was just an exhibition match," Hermione emphasized, though she was still jumping up and down on tiptoe.

Lockhart retreated to the edge of the stage and cast himself a "loud voice" - thanks to the signing speech, he was quite good at this spell.

"Let me comment on it for everyone. Although this is just an exhibition match, a real duel is not like this. It needs to be more sensitive to discover dangers in advance. For more details about this, please see my published works." Luo Hart talked eloquently, "But——this is still very good for you. Let's bow down..."

However, neither of the two on the court paid him any attention, and instead chatted a few words with each other.

"Felix, what do you want to do?"

"Professor, I'm just passing by to take a look, and help out by the way."

"Don't lie to me!" The two were so close that only each other could hear the conversation.

"Is it because the professor is proficient in Legilimency?" Felix teased.

Snape snorted. In his eyes, this former student had a very strong purpose in doing things, and his current behavior was of course classified by him as "Felix's first step in preparing to seize power".

The two men bowed, took seven steps back each, turned and looked at each other, holding their wands to their chests.

"As you can see, the two professors are holding their wands in a normal dueling position," Lockhart said, performing his commentary duty. "This is one of the three common dueling positions. Next I will count to three. They will cast the first spell."

The students below held their breath, the atmosphere was completely different from Lockhart's "demonstration" just now.

"One...two..."

"Snape won't be instantly killed?" Ron shouted excitedly.

"I don't think so, oh my God—" Hermione was about to say that Professor Happe admired Snape quite a bit, but she was quickly taken aback by the dazzling scene on stage.

"three!"

Snape yelled, "Disarm!" A blinding red light flashed, and the curse quickly flew in front of Felix.

Felix turned his wand, and released an "Iron Armor Curse" smoothly. The invisible magic barrier blocked Snape's spell, and then he lightly shook his wrist, and the magic barrier emitted a dazzling white light, facing forward Fly away quickly.

Snape uttered two spells in succession before breaking through Felix's Iron Armor Curse, and the magic barrier quickly dissipated.

However, the white light of the Iron Armor Curse obscured Snape's vision. When he subconsciously shifted his position - years of habit saved him once, three dim black lights passed him by, and the nearest one was almost close to him. nose.

All this happened in the midst of ups and downs, from Snape's strong first attack, to Felix's defensive counterattack, and using the white light to quickly release three spells for a sneak attack, it took less than three seconds.

Lockhart: "..."

Little wizards: "..."

The duel was still going on, and Snape didn't dare to take it lightly. He hadn't done anything for almost ten years. Although he never gave up on the exploration of magic, he still focused on improving potions.

However, he was quickly picking up his previous combat experience, and after a series of rather thrilling escapes, he finally started to fight back.

The spells of the two kept flying around, but they both had a tacit understanding and did not accidentally hurt the student.

All kinds of defensive spells, attacking spells, and disarming spells cut through the air, making sharp whistling sounds. The distance between the two of them sometimes quickly narrowed and sometimes moved away, and their feet kept moving slightly.

Lockhart sensibly jumped off the stage after a spell flew past his hair, but he still commented loudly: "The duel is a bit fierce... See their footsteps? Move, move, don't stand in place stupidly." land!"

Lockhart still has two brushes, at least his eloquence is very good. Through his explanation, many young wizards suddenly realized, which can be regarded as saving his image a little.

But Snape sneered at this point, he deftly picked up a spell and took the time to fight back.He felt that the power of Felix's spell was gradually strengthening, which made him more and more stressed.

Damn, this kid is putting pressure on me!
"How do you feel that Professor Haipu's spell is getting thicker and thicker?" Even many young wizards have noticed this, but with their knowledge, they can only judge the strength of the spell from the "appearance".

Snape's wand shook violently, and an enhanced version of "Armor Bodyguard" stood in front of him. Two fiery red lights hit it, making a "dong dong" sound, and a hole was torn open in the magic barrier.

Amazing magical attainments...

There was already a trace of sweat on Snape's face.

The young wizards in the audience were dazzled. For the first time, they realized that the so-called duel was not just a foolish way to cast spells face to face. There were too many tricks in casting speed, timing, defense methods, steps, and consciousness.

But they didn't know, neither of them used their full strength.

Felix easily avoided a red glow with his head sideways, and used the short gap to turn his wand to cast a spell, quickly assessing the limits of the potions professor in his mind.

Professor Snape's strength shouldn't be like this...

The next second, Felix's heart suddenly became alert, and he threw out three iron armor curses in a row, making it fly far away, blocking the only way to pass.

A powerful scarlet spell streaked across the air, quickly passed through the first and second barriers, and then ruthlessly rushed towards the third barrier.

The little wizards stared wide-eyed. They might not be able to judge the strength of the spell, but Snape's spell left a burning trail in mid-air and pierced through the armor barrier in one fell swoop. They could see clearly .

"Boom!"

A loud roar resounded through the auditorium.

Felix's third Armor Charm worked, deflecting Snape's surprisingly powerful spell away.

He smelled a hint of black magic...

Incorporating the properties of black magic into the disarming spell, Professor, you are beyond my expectations.

Do you have a stronger spell?Do you still have a backup...

Snape was far less relaxed than imagined. He did have some spells hidden, but they were all black magic and could not be used in public. Judging by Felix's performance, even if they were used, they would not have much effect.

He has surpassed me...

Never before had Snape realized this so clearly.
