Chapter 73: The Hunt (I)
Looking at Arkham who was like a shadow in the dust, Link's eyes were filled with expectation.
Although the wizards of this world will also be strong and weak depending on the amount of magic power and the quantity and quality of magic spells mastered, this difference is mainly reflected in the destructive power.
In terms of physical and defense, wizards have not found any good ways to improve.
Of course, it's not for nothing.
Some extreme wizards such as Voldemort will use human modification or human transfiguration to give themselves a defensive ability comparable to that of magical creatures, but such modifications usually cause the user to become non-human and ghostly, so it is not popular.
In such a situation, it is actually relatively easy to challenge the wizards to skip the ranks.
Just like the famous Death Eater Bellatrix in the original book would have been killed by Ron's mother, Mrs. Weasley.
In terms of comprehensive strength alone, Bellatrix is definitely completely crushing Mrs. Weasley, a full-time housewife, but no matter how strong Bellatrix is, her body is still that of an ordinary person, so as long as a negligence is hit by Mrs. Weasley's spell, then she still can't escape the fate of death.
That's why Link dared to come to Quirrell and Voldemort for trouble.
And now, everything is going according to Link's plan.
It's just that Quirrell, possessed by Voldemort, could it really be so easy to be killed?
"Roar!"
As the dust cleared, Arkham, who had been clubbing his head on the ground, suddenly raised his head and wailed in pain.
And along with its movements, Link finally saw,
In Arkham's mouth, Quirrell was curled up in a ball and shivering, but around him was a black-purple mask that forcibly stuck Arkham's mouth and kept Quirrell from being bitten to pieces.
There is no doubt that Voldemort made a move.
But so what?
Voldemort had not yet drunk the blood of a unicorn, and his strength was now so weak that he did not even have a hundredth percent of his heyday.
And Arkham is not a vegetarian either.
As a thousand-year-old basilisk, it possesses one of the most violent biotoxins in the world, and now, the transparent venom is slowly dripping down its fangs, rapidly eroding the mask.
In this state, Quirrell and Voldemort won't last long!
Quickly determining the current situation of the battle, Link no longer hesitated, and instantly raised his wand again.
"Shadowless!"
"Whew!"
The white light flickered, and flew swiftly towards Quirrell with an inaudible whistling sound.
Quirrell, who had been targeted, was still curled up, unaware of the danger that was coming.
But Voldemort on the back of his head wasn't that weak.
"Hah!"
There was only a hoarse shout, and the black light mask that had surrounded Quirrell's body suddenly turned into a cloud of black light and exploded, directly disintegrating Link's divine blade, and at the same time throwing Arkham who was biting him tightly away.
"Boom!"
A powerful shockwave enveloped in dust and twigs slammed down on Link's body, forcing him to pause his attack on Quirrell.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Quirrell, who had regained his freedom, fell to the ground, clutched his chest and groaned in pain for a while, and soon concentrated his hateful gaze on Link's body.
Gritting his teeth, Quirrell picked up the wand that had fallen to the ground.
"Thunderbolt Explosion!"
Quirrell's voice twisted slightly from the pain in his chest, but that didn't affect the spell's release.
A blood-red ball of light suddenly appeared, flying towards Link in a parabola.
I have to say that Quirrell still has some combat ability as an excellent graduate of Ravenclaw.
His timing was very good, and his hateful blow was not weak, and a normal wizard would be absolutely helpless in the face of such an attack.
It's a pity that Link is not ordinary.
With the help of the effect of the Super Sense Charm, even if his eyes were blinded, Link could still detect the high-energy magic reaction from the front.
Barely hesitating, Link stretched out his wand directly at the source of the mana reaction.
"Armor protection!"
"Buzz!"
A layer of translucent light shield blocked the red light bomb in an instant at the last moment, and not only that, but the moment the two touched, a huge force erupted on the light shield, bounce the light bullet back.
“boooooom!”
In Link's perception, the red light bullet drew a narrow scarlet arc in the night sky and fell into the distant forest, and finally turned into a roar.
At this moment, Quirrell did not look back into the dark forest.
He wasn't prepared to fight Link from the start, and the previous attack was just a delay.
Just, does this work?
"Huh!"
Looking in the direction Quirrell had disappeared, the corners of Link's mouth drew a sinister smile.
Although the previous attack failed to kill Quirrell, Link's original blade did hit Quirrell.
Due to the special nature of the Divine Blade, Quirrell's wound had no possibility of healing in a short period of time, and Quirrell, who had suffered this kind of injury, would not be able to run far at all!
On top of that, Link also has Arkham.
You know, snakes are good hunters.
"Hisss!~"
Without Link's order at all, Arkham, who had already recovered from the previous attack, turned around and directly hunched Link on his body, and then swam in the direction of Quirrell's escape with a snake letter.
As Link expected, as soon as he got into the dense forest, Link, who was blessed with the Super Sense Charm, found a sporadic blood stain on the ground.
Along the trail of blood, Link and Arkham soon saw a stumbling figure in their field of vision.
"Ha! Shenfeng has no shadow! Shenfeng has no shadow! The human body explodes ......"
With Link's shouts, white light whistled out, but Quirrell wasn't so fragile that he could collapse at the touch of a button.
As an adult wizard, he used his Iron Armor Charm just as well.
"Bang bang bang!"
Link's spells were bounced back one by one, but unfortunately, Link was protected by Arkham, and Arkham, who was protected by anti-demon scale armor, would not be afraid of this attack at all, just raised his head and helped Link take the spell, and he didn't even reduce his movement speed.
Seeing this, the smile on Link's face became thicker.
He hadn't expected the spells he had cast to do any damage to Quirrell again, after all, the other party had Voldemort's body protection.
What Link is doing now is like a pack of wolves hunting down cattle.
Slowly drain the prey's stamina, and then kill the prey with one blow when the prey is exhausted!
Quirrell, who was already completely panicked, was naturally ignorant of this, but Voldemort was aware of the danger.
"Stop!
Quirrell's mind suddenly remembered Voldemort's hoarse voice, which startled him and nearly fell.
This also made Voldemort even angrier, and he roared in Quirrell's head:
"Let me do it! Give me your body! I'm going to do it myself!"
"But...... But your strength is not ...... master."
"Don't talk nonsense, you idiot!Give me your body!Or do you think I'm no match for that kid!?"
