Chapter 138: Wizard, or Vampire?

"Andrew, aren't you worried at all?" said Hermione Granger, a little dissatisfied. Xie An'www.biquge.info indifferent attitude made Hermione feel like a fool.

Hearing the dissatisfaction in his friend's tone, Xie An said, "Hermione, have you forgotten that night in Diagon Alley? The owner of that bookstore is an adult wizard, and his magic is not weak, and he was not defeated by us in the end." ”

"That's when you used Animagus, do you want everyone to know that you're an unregistered Animagus? Hermione whispered.

"Let me tell you this, Hermione, I can easily defeat an adult wizard without the Animagus ability. Even in the face of the Aurors, I am confident that I can defeat them. Luna didn't tell you anything, and I didn't let her tell you, but I can actually defeat the Dementors on my own with my own magic!Can Cedric Diggory compare to the Dementors?" In order not to make Hermione angry, Shayne had to tell some things as examples to prove that he was not afraid of Cedric Diggory.

"Cedric Diggory's combat power is about the same as that of an adult wizard, and he has a good chance of becoming an official Auror!Andrew, even if you do have that kind of strength, please don't be proud! Use your spirit to deal with him! Even if it's for the autumn, you can't lose to him!" Hermione said seriously.

When it came to Qiu Zhang, Xie An didn't say much. After eating the bun quietly, I drank a little juice. Many of the students came to breakfast, including a Ravenclaw student who came to cheer Shayne on, and the twins told Shaan about their gamble, saying that if Shay could beat Cedric Diggory in one minute, the twins would be willing to give Shay an three tiers of bets.

Xie An said with a gloomy face: "In this way, for the sake of your gamble, I will also fight Cedric Digoridor for a while. ”

"Andrew, this is not good, we know your strength very well, if you fight beyond this time, we will lose a lot. Frey said hurriedly.

"That's exactly what I wanted. Hmph, you just wait and continue to work for me. ”

"You vampire, I didn't expect you to pay such attention, and we still treat you as friends!" George said excitedly.

Xie An ignored the two and got up to leave.

"Yes, that's pretty much the thing, Andrew will do what we guessed. Haha, Fred, you're going to make a fortune now!" George said to Fred happily as he watched Andrew come out of the auditorium, his sad and angry expression disappeared in an instant.

"What the hell are you two paying attention to, crying and laughing?" asked Hermione, confused.

"Hermione, don't ask about that, you won't bet anyway. Haha, wait for the result of today's duel, and we'll tell you again. ”

The first Charms class in the morning was lackluster, and Professor Flitwick wanted to say something a few times, but Xie Ancheng kept his head down and did his own thing. Professor Flitwick had no choice but to tell everyone in earnest: competition second, friendship first. In exchange for a burst of laughter.

At the end of class, almost all of the students knew about the duel agreement between Andrew Lee and Cedric Diggory. The professors and prefects tried several times to maintain order, without success.

"Wow, it's been years since I've seen a real wizard duel, and this is probably the first official duel at Hogwarts in decades, and I think the professor should allow me to take a leave of absence to watch. ”

"Yes, I heard that the two of them duel for the new princess of Ravenclaw, Cho Chang, for such a reason, it is really romantic, when can two wizards duel for me!" said a handsome male wizard.

"Come on, don't you think it's funny for a male wizard to say such a thing, and it's for a witch like me to fight a duel!"

"Witches need to be self-reliant. When is it, still thinking about relying on male witches. You have forgotten the glorious traditions of our witches. I think back then, we witches ruled the whole of magical England, and those wizards didn't even deserve to stir the cauldron for us..."

During the discussion, Headmaster Dumbledore's voice suddenly resounded throughout the school, the voice was gentle, but it sounded like it was ringing in the ears: "Cedric Diggory and Andrew Lee's wizarding duel will be displayed in the school's honor room, all students can go and watch, this morning's second class is temporarily canceled!"

A cheer resounded throughout the castle, and it was the first time that the students had seen Dumbledore in a time when they had rarely seen Dumbledore. Professor McGonagall frowned, she felt that Dumbledore was overindulgent of the children. Hogwarts School is not a school for warriors! such encouragement of private duels only turns the school into a terrible Colosseum.

Professor McGonagall was determined to talk to Dumbledore later, she couldn't let Hogwarts School sink into the same violent frenzy as the Death Eaters.

All the students flocked to the school's honor room. A special spell has been cast on this place, and nothing here will get old. Those golden badges of honor are engraved with the names of the former recipients, and they still shine brightly. Some of the medals have names engraved on them that are now loud and clear, and Hogwarts has produced countless magical elites for the UK.

The Quidditch House Cup is also quietly placed in a prominent position, and on the golden base under the trophy, the names of the school's Quidditch Cup winners and the list of champions are densely arranged on the golden base of the trophy. Many of these names also appear on the Quidditch Hall of Fame roster in the UK.

In one of the top corners of the platform, there was an inconspicuous-looking medallion that was completely different from the usual medallion engraved with the Hogwarts school crest. The medallion is engraved with the emblems of the four academies, and the color is not golden, but shines mystically bright silver. Without the slightest indication that this medal was intended to be awarded to the Guardians of Hogwarts School!

The prefects have begun to maintain order, and there are quite a few students at Hogwarts School. There are also some exchange students from other schools, such as Hallie Black and Rolf Scamander, who are all temporarily enrolled here, and I heard that they will soon come to Suzaku School of Magic.

Like a small white boat, Dumbledore pushed away the crowded students and stood in front of the booth where the medals of honor were displayed. Severus Snape followed, followed by Professor McGonagall, Professor Flitwick, and several other professors.

"Professor McGonagall, could you please stand in the middle and help me protect the students?" Dumbledore said kindly.

Professor McGonagall nodded, and stood across from Dumbledore, the student being pushed behind Professor McGonagall in a soft voice.

"Professor Sprout, as Head of Hufflepuff, please stand behind Cedric Diggory and be prepared to protect him!" Dumbledore said to Professor Pomona Sprout of Herbology. Cedric Diggory had already appeared not far from Dumbledore's right hand, wearing trousers for easy dodging and a sweater emblazoned with the Hufflepuff logo, looking scrappy and unsheathed.

"Professor Flitwick, please stand behind Andrew Lee and make sure he is safe. Dumbledore nodded at Professor Flitwick, who was already standing beside Andrew. Flitwick looked nervous, his wand already in his hand.

"Professor Severus Snape, would you like to referee this match?" Dumbledore asked with a smile. Severus Snape glanced at Dumbledore suspiciously, wasn't Dumbledore personally here to be a referee?

Dumbledore whispered to Severus Snape, "I need to be attentive, you need to protect both sides." Dumbledore gave Andrew a serious look. Andrew Lee didn't seem to have any response, he was wearing his usual magic robes with a beautiful school crest embroidered on them. The black robe supported Xie An's somewhat pale face, and although he was only in the second year, Xie An was already about the same height as Cedric Diggory.

"Although according to the practice of duels, our preparation was far from sufficient, and in some places it was even said that there were huge loopholes, and some of the necessary checks to ensure fairness were not done. But considering that both of them are Hogwarts students, I believe in my two best students. Then when you're ready, Professor Snape can declare it started!" Dumbledore winked at both sides to the left and right.

Severus Snape stood between the two, "You can't use lethal and unforgivable spells, you can't use dark magic, you have to stop as soon as the referee stops, you know?" Severus Snape said in a deep, slippery voice.

Shea and Cedric Diggory both nodded.

"Take out your wand! The inspection of the wand has also been omitted, and I'm sure none of you are counterfeits who have drunk a transfiguration potion. Then get ready, I say start, you can attack each other, again, you can't use any lethal or unforgivable spells!" Severus Snape slowly took a step back. All the students held their breath. Cedric Diggory adjusted his breathing, his legs slightly spread out, his wand in his hand, aimed at the enemy on the other side!

"Let's go!"

Shean stood calmly, not seeming to hear Severus Snape's low, loud start. Cedric Diggory instantly fires a red spell and dodges.

"Bang!" there was a soft sound, and Cedric Diggory's red spell hit a wall. At Cedric Diggory's feet, a devil's vine had been entwined.

"Both sides are silently incantations, so strong!"

Cedric Diggory's dodge was only for spells, he didn't expect Andrew's first spell to summon the devil's vine, and in desperation, Cedric Diggory had to point his wand at the devil's vine, wanting to use magic to cut off the vine.

Shayne's wand glowed red, and Cedric Diggory blocked Shayne's spell with his armor, while Cedric Diggory also transformed into a long stick and threw it at the Devil's Vine, which wrapped around it, ignoring Cedric Diggory.

Seeing that the Devil Vine was ineffective, Xie An's poplar staff slashed through the arcane trajectory in the air, and a swarm of bees was quickly summoned and buzzed towards Cedric Diggory. Cedric Diggory summons a fireball that burns the bees to ashes. Taking advantage of the fact that Shayne's vision was obscured by the fireball, Cedric Diggory fired three spells in succession, namely the Petrification Charm, the Disarming Charm, and the Confusion Charm.

Shayne seems to have known Cedric Diggory's intentions for a long time, and after he has summoned the bees, he directly continues to summon a swarm of bats. These bats are not magical creatures like bees. It was a family spell from the Weasleys that Shea had bought from the twins at great expense, and he had used it to taunt Ron. After comprehending the Animagus form, Xie An made a small change to this spell!

These vampire bats are intelligent, and they quickly fly around them indiscriminately.

The fireball obscured Shayne's vision, and of course Cedric Diggory's vision.

After the fireball disappeared, Andrew also disappeared, Cedric Diggory looked around suspiciously, he felt that the three spells did not hit, then Andrew may have released the illusion spell on himself, he is invisible!

Cedric Diggory looked at the bats flying around the rooftops, and wondered what was the use of these things, was they used to attract his attention, to cover up for Andrew's Illusion Charm?

Cedric Diggory thought for a moment, didn't linger long, and then didn't hesitate to release the Wind Spell Change. This spell will make the dust on the ground fly. A puff of dust flew everywhere, and a transparent figure quickly appeared in front of Cedric Diggory.

The students were stunned by the dizzying spells of the two, and although they knew in advance that Cedric Diggory was a very powerful prefect, standing not far from the battlefield and feeling the spells whizzing by, still overloaded the hearts of many students.

Many of the students standing to Dumbledore's left saw Andrew cast the Illusion Charm on himself almost in two seconds and disappear in front of the crowd, many of them not even knowing the Illusion Spell. With such a fast casting speed, even Professor Flitwick was a little surprised.

But what surprised Professor Flitwick even more was that the bat spell that Xie An had released before that was not an ordinary transfiguration spell to summon birds, but a very special kind of ancient sorcery! These bats can not only be used for a salvo attack, but the key is that they can rush to the wizard's side and explode, interrupting the wizard's casting. And this doesn't seem to be Xie An's purpose, he seems to have other plans.

Cedric Diggory smiled at the wobbling blurred silhouette at the corner of his mouth: "It seems that the victory is mine!"

"All petrified!" Cedric Diggory couldn't help but shout, and a whistling red light struck a blurry silhouette not far away.

A powerful spell crossed the space with a strong wind sound, striking the transparent silhouette. The figure hit by the petrification spell was indeed forbidden to move. Cedric Diggory said, "Haha, Andrew, don't think you can spell me and I can't do anything about you. Now I have learned a lesson. The students couldn't help but let out a sigh of regret, and some Ravenclaw students even tried to secretly help Andrew.

Professor Flitwick looked at the bat with some surprise, there were more of them than before! All the students were paying attention to the almost transparent outline, but no one was paying attention to the seemingly useless black bats of an unknown number.

Dumbledore frowned and looked at the bats flying in the sky, as the chief wizard of the Wizengamot wizards, he was certainly familiar with this magical skill: the vampire's bat, Animagus!

Voldemort is the only evil creature that can be compared to the Dementors! The vampire of the wizarding world is a creature with a complex relationship with the strongest evil creature, Voldemort, legend has it that a long time ago, a dark wizard's Animagus form was Voldemort, this evil dark wizard turned into Voldemort, completely sunk into the darkness, never wanted to change back, he used an unprecedented evil method to solidify his Animagus form, and in this state to reproduce offspring, is the first generation of vampires!

Voldemort bats can fly silently in the night sky, approaching wizards like nightmares. Vampires who have inherited such a bloodline can master a Fuanimagus skill that incarnates Voldemort Bat when they grow to the strongest stage, and can make themselves incarnate Voldemort Animagus in times of crisis. This transfiguration, which originated in dark magic, has always remained in the bloodline of vampires, and only the strongest dark vampires can break the shackles of the bloodline and directly incarnate into Voldemort!

After that evil dark wizard, there were also wizards who tried to keep their Animagus form forever, but they all failed. The reason for this has long been unexplored, and the legend has something to do with the loss of a treasure that can remain permanently transformed. Dumbledore had also studied this permanent transfiguration, but he soon discovered that this terrible transfiguration could lead to extremely dire consequences.

Today, this transfiguration is only being studied in schools such as Durmstrang School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, and in the mainstream perception of wizards in Britain, eternal transfiguration is almost equal to great danger. If you are not careful, you may not only cause irreparable and terrible damage, but may even explode the wizard!

So nowadays, the only creatures that can transform into Voldemort Bat are vampires!

And no wizard has ever been able to directly transform into multiple vampire bats like Andrew Lee just demonstrated! This skill is different from the average Voldemort Bat Animagus, it seems to be a new kind of transfiguration! A new transfiguration that should only appear in fairy tales and stories, not in reality!

All the students thought Andrew had failed and let out a sigh of regret. But all the professors looked up nervously at the roof with their lips tensed, and the bats that had just been released were rapidly regrouping into a large, slender black figure!
