The man behind Hogwarts

Chapter 122 Battle in the Library

The mysterious man became curious about William's identity.

Unfortunately, William's body was hidden behind the bookshelf, and only a blurry figure could be seen through the gap between the bookshelf in the light of the portable lamp.

After resisting his 'stun spell', William did not stay where he was, but quickly took a few steps back.

"The other party's magic ability is obviously much stronger than mine.

He knows more spells, and he can also cast silent spells, which means that unless his spells show obvious characteristics, I can't even know what spells the other person casts... and he casts them. The speed of the spell is also very fast..."

He hid his body in the shadows and stared at the other person's movements.

The silent spell is just a special way of casting spells, which does not mean that the wizard does not need to recite the spell.

Lesser wizards just don't make a sound when using silent spells, but still have to move their lips; more experienced wizards are more powerful, they don't even need to move their lips, they can just say it silently in their hearts.

I wonder how far he can go?

The current situation is very similar to the classic case mentioned by Professor Crohn: encountering a strange wizard who casts strange magic on you.

The response plan given by Professor Crohn is:

Option 1: Escape.

Option 2: Hide first, then sneak attack (applicable to situations where escape is impossible).

third solution:......

William never thought about escaping, but he also planned to hide his figure first.

"You are no match for me. If you surrender, I will not hurt you." The mysterious man did not take any further action, but persuaded William to give up resistance.

"That's not necessarily the case." William replied softly, "Fainted!"

The mysterious man's face darkened, and he casually blocked the Iron Armor Curse.

He did not fight back immediately, but cast a spell on himself, and this spell had no silent skills. He could only hear him saying in a stiff tone: "Super induction!"

Then he read again: "Silence!" The direction the wand pointed was neither William nor himself, but the sky above his head.

Immediately, a translucent water curtain-like thing enveloped the first floor of the library.

The translucent water curtain was like a birdcage, covering the entire first floor. After a second, the water curtain completely disappeared.

William looked surprised,

"Can this curse still be used like this? Isn't this a different kind of barrier... The water curtain turns into a barrier to isolate the space, so that the sound inside cannot be transmitted out."

"But I'm afraid you didn't expect it, and I don't want to alarm outsiders. What a great opportunity for practical combat."

Great, I learned another trick.

I sigh that progress is still rapid in actual combat.

He tried his other magic spells, all the magic spells that could attack one by one, and even used some practical life-oriented magic spells as if to practice, but unfortunately he could not break through the opponent's iron armor spell.

The Iron Armor Curse can defend against most attacking spells, but none of the spell systems he knows now can break the Iron Armor Curse.

"The magic attack methods are still lacking, especially powerful attack spells."

Turning around, he escaped an unknown spell cast by a mysterious man.

His figure flashed past the bright area, and then immediately dived into the shadows. The mysterious man only saw a bright golden color...

The two seemed to have a tacit understanding, and neither of them used lighting spells.

The mysterious man also devoted some energy to prepare for the response. He even prepared the 'Wand Extinguishing Curse', but the other party did not use the lighting spell for a long time.

"What is he thinking? Could it be that...his identity cannot be revealed to the public?"

"Quickly imprison him!" The mysterious man muttered silently, his wand shaking rapidly.

After the blessing of the 'super-sense spell', although William was hidden in a dark corner, he could still sense William's position.

An invisible spell goes straight to the dark corner,

puff,

The 'Confining Curse' failed.

"Damn it, how fast is he? He has already escaped several of my spells. Is he a ghost?!"

Seeing William dodge the attack again, no matter how steady the mysterious man is, he can't help but become impatient. What's even more annoying is that, knowing that the spell can't break the iron armor curse, William still tries one after another calmly...

He even tried the floating spell!

It's simply too much.

However, the mysterious man did not gain nothing, at least he had narrowed down William's identity.

"The types of spells he cast were very few, and none of them involved fourth-year or above spells. Therefore, he is most likely a third-year student."

Although William also cast some uncommon spells he learned from the library, he didn't find anything eye-catching.

"It depends on how you avoid this curse."

The mysterious man cast a spell again. The tip of the wand pointed not at William, but at the entire shadow corner where he was hiding.

——"Swamp Confinement!"

The stone tile floor suddenly turned into a swamp, and the swamp was very wide, covering a small half of the library (first floor).

William jumped onto the bookshelf as soon as the mire appeared, but he was a little silent looking at his shoes that were almost torn off. "Just a little bit of mire can be so powerful. This magic spell can be used to control the field. It’s more than suitable.”

But who said I would just hide?

He squatted on the bookshelf and cabinet, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and recited a spell: "Stop the spell!"

Invisible magic bursts out from the wand, and the power of the spell falls on the mire.

Change occurs immediately,

Around the 'curse stop' as the center point, the swamp returned to its swamp appearance at a speed visible to the naked eye, quickly returning to a stone brick floor.

The properties of the ‘Stop Curse’ curse are similar to those of the ‘Iron Armor Curse’.

One is able to defend against most attacking spells; the other is able to remove most spells.

"You used this 'curse stop' quite well, it's quite powerful." The mysterious man praised, "You can probably tell that I didn't mean to hurt you, otherwise I would have used a more powerful evil weapon long ago. Cursed."

"You can't even break through my iron armor curse, so what are you using to defend against the curse?

Killing Curse, Cruciatus Curse, Imperius Curse...can you resist?

and,

The way you dodge the spell is based on where my wand is pointing...if I extinguish the lamp next to me...how else can you dodge it? "

He named the three unforgivable curses in succession. Just saying the names of these three spells made the mysterious man's hair stand on end.

Moreover, he couldn't help but think of the reason why he came here tonight, and his expression suddenly became gloomy.

William was noncommittal about his words.

After the quagmire was lifted, he jumped off the bookshelf and continued to hide in the shadows: "Yes, you can choose to extinguish the oil lamp. I don't know how to 'super-sense the spell', and I certainly can't avoid the spell like this anymore."

He chuckled lightly and continued:

"But, you can extinguish the oil lamp, and I can use the lighting spell, and I can not only 'fluoresce', but I can also 'brightly shine like a pillar'. When the time comes, a pillar of light will shoot directly into the sky. Do you think Dumbledore and the others can do it?" Won’t you notice?”
