The chaos of the duel reached this point, and Snape and Lockhart also knew that they could not continue, so Lockhart proposed that Neville Longbottom and Justin Finch-Fletchley take the stage as a demonstration of the duel.
"This is a bad idea, Professor Lockhart." Snape glided across the stage like a big, vicious bat. "Longbottom can wreak havoc even with the simplest of spells. We will put Finlay The remains were put in a matchbox and sent to the hospital ward." Snape then said with a grin, "How about Malfoy and Potter?"
"How wonderful!" Lockhart motioned Harry and Draco to the center of the Great Hall, and people stepped back to make room for them.
Snape shook his head and said: "Draco, I am not talking about you Malfoy; Sherrin, come here!"
Xie Lin did not expect to be called up. After a moment of surprise, he shrugged and walked slowly to the stage. He couldn't help but feel a trace of expectation in his heart, "Okay, let me see how capable this savior Harry is at this time, right? Snape probably saw me defeating Ron easily and wanted to use me to attack Harry." .”
Harry's face didn't look good either. Although Schelling kept a very low profile last semester, his excellent academic performance, especially in the two major subjects of Transfiguration and Charms, was praised by Professor Flitwick and Professor McGonagall. This shows that Xie Lin's strength is definitely stronger than his brother who yells loudly all day long.
A familiar saying from the British Muggle world - a dog that bites must not bark - came to Harry's mind, and he suddenly felt a heavy pressure in his heart.
Sherrin and Harry stood on both sides of the stage. Lockhart whispered beside Harry, seeming to teach some fighting skills, but Snape said nothing and just allowed Sherrin to do whatever he wanted. This made the Slytherins in the audience roar with dissatisfaction, and whispers of unfairness came one after another.
Sherrin gave Harry a polite smile and performed a very solemn duel ceremony. This duel ceremony was completely different from Lockhart's fancy movements before. The movements were smooth and full of sacred and solemn artistic conception. Not many people know that this is an ancient dueling ceremony that is only mentioned in ancient family documents.
Harry grew up in a Muggle family and naturally knew nothing about the ancient dueling etiquette. At this time, he looked at a loss because he didn't know how to deal with it. Sherlin smiled and said: "Don't be nervous, Harry. This is just an ordinary duel of a learning nature, and it does not involve any personal grudges. We will agree now that we will end it and not intentionally hurt each other. Do you think this is okay?"
Harry nodded. As for what he was thinking, Sherlin didn't know and didn't bother to guess.
Harry took the lead in casting a full-body binding spell. In Shellin's eyes, Harry's spell casting technique was rough and unfamiliar, the spell's flight path was straight and too obvious, and the speed of releasing magic was too slow. With Shellin's body She only needed to slightly turn to the left to easily dodge Harry's attack. While dodging, Xellin waved his wand upwards and shouted: "Besieged from all sides!"
Suddenly, four transparent magic barriers rose from the ground around Harry - it was a barrier spell, as if a box trapped Harry tightly in the middle. This spell was learned by Sherrin from the family's collection of books and was not at Hogwarts. It was within the scope of the professor, so Harry didn't know how to crack it.
Seeing that he had no escape, Harry immediately shot a fire spell at one of the barriers. Sherrin nodded in recognition of Harry's adaptability. Unfortunately, with Harry's pitiful magic power, the weak flames he shot could only turn into scattered sparks when they hit the barrier, without having any impact on the barrier.
Xie Lin secretly thought "It's over" and quickly made a cross with his wand. Without chanting any spells, the end of the wand shot out a dim and obscure white light, aiming at Harry's face in a tricky curve. The door flew open, and several women's screams rang out from the audience, with Hermione and Ginny's screams being the loudest.
Even Snape had an expression on his face. Just when he was about to pull out his wand and wanted to intervene, Sherrin, who had everything under control, raised the corners of his mouth slightly. The hand holding the wand shook slightly, and a white light was less than ten centimeters in front of Harry's forehead. Suddenly disappeared without a trace.
Although he felt that Schelling was unlikely to use lethal magic in public, being forced to see this mysterious and unknown magic made Harry uncontrollably fall into a state of confusion due to fear.
"Accepted!" Schelling did not show any pride because of his victory. His face was as calm as if victory was a matter of course. He once again performed the ancient and solemn duel ceremony to Harry, and then politely bowed to the two professors on the platform to thank him. , walked down the stage slowly with elegant steps, and left without looking back.
The whole audience was shocked!
Although Schelling was famous for his excellent academic performance in the first grade, his opponent defeated Voldemort and the famous Harry Potter when he was a baby! Moreover, at the end of last year, Harry and his friends broke through the restricted area of the corridor on the fourth floor, cracked the professors' many obstacles, and finally defeated the dark wizard Quirrell who had sneaked into Hogwarts as a professor! These stories are all proven - Dumbledore added 170 points to Gryffindor in one go.
Before this, except for Draco, Daphne, and Meredith, the young wizards had never thought that the famous Harry would lose to a student of the same class, let alone such a crushing defeat. Miserable failure!
The entire audience was captured by Xie Lin's explosive momentum and fell into silence.
It wasn't until Xie Lin left the auditorium for a while that anyone inquired about Xie Lin's identity, not to mention some nymphomaniac girls who marveled at Xie Lin's appearance and strength with twinkling eyes.
Xie Lin was born into the noble Malfoy family, and his appearance and temperament are already noble and cold. With the display of super strength, his temperament is even more heroic, and with the two executions The ancient dueling ceremony made him appear more graceful, gentle and polite. It's no wonder that he could easily win the favor of many girls present.
Draco was very proud to tell everyone about Schelling's identity. At the same time, he did not forget to mention that Schelling practiced magic by himself at home, as if Schelling's strength was attributed to Draco.
Hermione covered her mouth with both hands and exclaimed in disbelief: "Oh my god! Silent casting! That's the level of NEWT, and it's also a relatively difficult part. It is said that not everyone in the senior class can master it. He You’re only in second grade, how did you do it?”
Ron looked unconvinced on the side, but his good friend Harry was defeated openly and openly in front of everyone. Even if he was unconvinced, he could not argue with the facts.
Harry's face was very bitter. For the first time, he felt that he was ordinary. He had always felt that he was different. Even when he was misunderstood as the heir of Slytherin, although he was angry, he felt deep in his heart. There is no hint of joy everywhere. After this duel, Harry discovered that he was actually nothing special. He was often noticed just because of a scar on his forehead.
Lockhart on the stage was still bragging about how he could break Sherrin's magic, but at this moment there were only a few little girls listening in the audience.
After watching the battle of Harry Schelling, more people had more desire for strength because they recognized the gap between themselves and the top level. At this moment, they were quietly intoxicated in recalling the various details of the previous duel. For Luo Hart's chatter at the moment was unconcerned.
Snape still had a poker face and stood quietly, making it impossible for anyone to guess what he was thinking at the moment.
Some outstanding seniors in the senior class, such as Hufflepuff's Cedric Diggory and Ravenclaw's Penelo Crivat, as knowledgeable people, they all gained insights in this duel. I was amazed by the various fast casting skills and curve shooting skills displayed by Xie Lin. At this time, I was carefully understanding how to apply them in actual combat.
Three days later, the first half of the semester ended.
The third attack did not happen as described in the original novel.
Xie Lin thought for a moment and realized that he had caused the butterfly effect. Because he replaced Draco in the duel with Harry, thereby preventing Draco from summoning a magical black snake with a spell to attack, and the subsequent incident where Harry used snake language to prevent the magical black snake from attacking Justin, Justin did not complain to Harry. He became frightened and hid alone on the fifth floor, where he was attacked by a basilisk.
Due to the current situation in Hogwarts, most of the young wizards have chosen to go home for Christmas, and the castle is as thick and silent as the snow on the ground.
Before the vacation, Daphne and Meredith got Xuelin's spell-casting technique notes from Xuelin after some hard work, which included Voldemort's spell-casting techniques, as well as some quick spellcasting techniques that Xuelin himself had learned. Curve shooting and other skills. The two girls were ordered by their families to go home during the Christmas vacation. They planned to learn Schelling's spell-casting techniques during the Christmas vacation so that their abilities would not fall too far.
On Christmas morning, Schelling woke up early and was surprised to see gifts piled in front of his bed.
After opening gifts all morning, he discovered that his popularity was much better than he thought. Draco gave him a notebook, Daphne and Meredith both gave themselves a magic book collected by the family, Dobby gave him a new set of socks, and even Kreacher did not forget to give him a bag of homemade pickles. Make snacks.
What surprised him the most was a set of black and silver-shining broad-shouldered cloaks sent by his mother Narcissa. This cloak has a very romantic name, called "Night Star", and is made from ancient dragon skin dyed black. A tailor-made shoulder-protecting cloak. The silvery glowing dots on the cloak are actually because a famous ancient alchemist used alchemy to fuse the powder after grinding magic crystal with dragon skin. Therefore, it has a high degree of physical defense and anti-magic power. , this production technique has long been lost in modern times, making this cloak even more precious.
"Is mother worried that I would be involved in the secret room incident and get hurt, so she specially sent me life-saving equipment?" Xie Lin suddenly understood his mother's feelings for him. While feeling moved, he couldn't help but think that his mother probably hadn't thought about Hogg now. Maybe the safest student in Wozniu is himself.
【Get the "Night Star" cloak! 】
Of course, Schelling did not forget to give gifts to his friends one by one. Schelling gave Draco a set of broomstick maintenance tools; he gave Daphne an exquisite sleeve with a secret pocket for storing a wand sewn on it. Daphne was able to draw the wand faster; she gave Meredith a deformed lizard skin suitcase whose interior space was enlarged with a traceless stretch spell...
In addition to the above-mentioned gifts, there are more than forty gifts left, all from female classmates he does not know. Most of them are junior students in Slytherin, but there are also a small number from other houses. Female classmates, the gifts include a variety of chocolates, gloves, scarves, etc.
Only then did Xie Lin realize how popular he was among the girls at Hogwarts. It was probably because of his outstanding performance in the Duel Club that he had successfully left a deep impression on his classmates. Even with his calm personality in his two lifetimes, , I couldn’t help but feel a little complacent at this moment.
