Homecoming from Hogwarts

Chapter 512 Duel Magic Classification
"You are going to teach us the magic you used to defeat the black witch in the World Cup!"

After Professor Blaine said with a faint smile that he wanted to teach them magic, the already quiet classroom became even quieter. The little wizards' breathing froze. They stared at Professor Blaine with wide eyes, as if they didn't dare. Believe what you just heard.

Amosta Braine is almost recognized as the most powerful wizard in the modern era. Although many people can't figure out the difference between 'most powerful' and 'greatest', Dumbledore is already over a hundred years old. , today, when the mysterious man's power was defeated by Harry Potter, Amosta Braine is the most powerful person in the wizarding world!

Professor Blaine actually said here that he would teach them dueling magic - even though many people had such expectations before and expected that this day would come sooner or later in physical education class, but when this day actually came, this group of kids The wizard was still so surprised that he couldn't contain himself.

The moment he came to his senses, Cedric of Hufflepuff called out.

He also appeared at this year's World Cup. There are no words to describe the shock in his heart after he followed the crowd and escaped from the Quidditch field and saw the 'Duel of the Century' while standing in the woods!
"Why not be practical, Mr. Diggory?"

Professor Brain chuckled. He took out his wand and waved it, and suddenly there were many more desks and chairs in the spacious classroom.

"Sit down, everyone, before we can teach magic, we still need some theoretical training."

The little wizards rushed over. Hermione, who didn't get the first row, patted her legs in annoyance. Then, she realized that she didn't bring a notebook or pen, which made her even more anxious.

Whoops!

The curtains closed automatically, blocking the darkness outside the window.Under the four walls, the armor that had destroyed the young wizards countless times pulled out the torches on the walls, and walked step by step around the tables and chairs, illuminating a space as bright as day.

"First of all, I have to correct what I just said--"

Professor Brain stood in front of the blackboard held by two armors and said to the serious faces,
"There is no such thing as duel magic. The wonderful power of magic itself can be used in many situations. The so-called duel magic is just a loose general term. In duels and battles, magic can be roughly divided into Three categories – offensive magic, defensive magic and functional magic.”

At Hogwarts, there has never been a course dedicated to teaching dueling. The ancient skill of dueling relies more on self-understanding, or it is tempered in thousands of conflicts with people. Therefore, no little wizard I am willing to desert at this time.

"Offensive magic - it's easy to understand, right? It's a spell that hits the opponent in a duel and makes the opponent lose the ability to resist. There are many forms of this type of magic, such as -"

A piece of armor stood thirty feet away with clanking steps, and greeted the magic thrown by Professor Brain with its head.

Boom!In the surging air waves, the armor became torn apart.

"Explosion--" Professor Blaine smiled and said to the swaying little wizards, and then summoned another armor.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!A few flashes of silver light flashed, and the armor was in pieces.

"Cutting--" Professor Brain said concisely.

Next, it was an eye-opener for the little wizards. They saw Professor Brain using various harmful methods to torture these armors - burning, piercing, corroding, twisting, petrifying, disarming and binding. Professor Brain even used a This magic creates strong gravity on the hard armor, crushing the armor into a discus.

"There are so many strange things that I can't go into details one by one. In short, what I am pursuing is one goal, which is to use your opponent to lose the ability to resist--"

Professor Blaine said, standing in the middle of a pile of scrap metal, his breathing undisturbed.

It wasn't until the overwhelming attacks stopped that Harry felt his breathing become smoother, and the little wizards around him were almost the same as him. For a moment, the sound of exhalation could be heard in the classroom.

"Do you want us to learn all of this, Professor Blaine?"

Harry's teammate on the Gryffindor team, fifth-year Katie Bell, blushed and said breathlessly,
"With all due respect, this is probably unlikely." "Absolutely impossible!"

Fred Weasley's decisive words were met with a chorus of echoes.

"it's not true--"

Professor Brain blew on the smoking wand and said calmly,
"What I want you to understand is that in a duel, a spell that can make your opponent lie down is a good spell. You must have an offensive spell that you are good at. It doesn't matter what it is."

Harry immediately thought of the disarming spell. This spell was used by Snape in Professor Lockhart's dueling class at that time. For some reason, he felt that he was particularly good at this spell. He just saw it once and used it easily. , almost never fails.

"Let's talk about defensive magic again--"

Professor Brain used his gaze to force the agitated group of young wizards to quiet down.

"Now, you have mastered certain dodge skills, and you will each master your own offensive spells under my guidance, but you need to understand that you cannot avoid all attacks by dodge alone, because your There is a limit to your physical strength, and your dodge speed cannot always be faster than the opponent's attack. However, an experienced wizard can easily predict the direction in which you will dodge.

Maybe you have heard the saying that attack is the best defense, but the problem is that in a closely matched duel, you cannot always maintain an offensive posture.

Firstly, the magic power cannot be supported. Secondly, everyone's attacks have a rhythm. Once the opponent catches the rhythm and looks for a gap to counterattack, your attack will be forced to stop and you will switch to a defensive posture. At this time, you need to Defensive magic. There is nothing to demonstrate. I will teach you the same thing later. "

There had never been a professor in that class who could keep so many students focused at the same time, but Professor Blaine did that in this class.

There are more than 30 little wizards from the academy, the youngest is only in third grade, and the eldest, Cedric Diggory, is already in sixth grade. None of them have deserted. What they are listening to now is the most powerful wizard of the contemporary era, teaching them Systematic duel experience, this is an opportunity that no amount of galleons can buy!

"Functional magic, or auxiliary magic, is the most difficult because it tests your combat awareness and comprehensive knowledge of magic. It is difficult to describe it in full. I can give you an example. So... Grant Miss Jie!”

Professor Blaine suddenly shouted.

Hermione's whole mind was focused on the experience taught by Professor Blaine. She didn't expect to be called on suddenly. She stood up too hastily and caused a close collision between her knees and the bottom of the table. Hermione's face was exposed to the pain in her heart. She was gasping in pain, but even Slytherin's Pansy Parkinson didn't have time to laugh at her, and still stared at Professor Brain with burning eyes.

"If during a duel, I use magic to turn the ground under your feet into a swamp, do you understand? This is not an attack, but it can bring you big trouble, because it deprives you of your dodge space, then, please How will you solve the problem that a skilled wizard can directly break the spell and return the ground to normal, but you do not have such ability? Tell me, in this case, what magic will you use to help yourself get out of the embarrassing situation?"

Forehead.
Hermione frowned, thinking hard, and the other little wizards were also thinking about this issue.

"I can."

Hermione pursed her lips and summoned all the magic she had mastered over the past few years in her head.
"Hmm - maybe I'll use a freezing spell, which will harden the swamp enough for people to stand again."

"Very well, five points to Gryffindor. Please sit down, Miss Granger!"

Hermione sat down with joy, and Neville cast an admiring look at her. The only way he could think of was to throw himself into the mud so that his opponent could not see him clearly.
"I think you already know what I mean, right?"

Professor Brain said to the stunned little wizards,
"Auxiliary spells cannot directly attack, but they can create obstacles for the opponent in a duel and help oneself get out of trouble. They have unexpected effects. For example, if you are facing a vicious fire dragon, of course you You can't defeat it, right? But you can use the no-fly spell to stop the fire dragon from flying, use the flame extinguishing spell to make the fire dragon mute, and then blind its eyes, and you will be much more at ease this way. Of course, this kind of magic involves many aspects. Taiguang, in this class, I will only teach you some ideas on how to use functional spells flexibly. For specific spell learning, you still need to take your spells class seriously!"
