Chapter 241: The Duel with Snape
night
In the office of the Defence Against the Dark Arts class, Ivan arrived half an hour early, drank the polyjuice potion, and turned into Lockhart.
"Cloaks, gloves, rings! And wands! Ivan looked at himself in the mirror and frowned, then held out his hand to the side.
Lockhart handed over his three-piece suit, but when he finally handed over the wand, he hesitated and said reluctantly.
"Why do you even want my wand? It's all given to you, so what should I do? ”
"If you don't want me to be recognized, then bring it all!" Ivan rolled his eyes, then looked at Lockhart, who had been transformed into himself with the Polyjuice Potion, and warned him.
"Also, you'd better stay in your office and don't go anywhere!"
"How can that work? I don't want to miss such an important moment. Give me your wand, what if I'm called on stage by another professor?" Lockhart raised an eyebrow.
Ivan shook his head, and there was nothing he could do with him, so he threw him a protective ring.
As for his unicorn wand, Ivan was not going to give it to Lockhart, but fortunately he still had a wand with a dragon's heartstring, which he had not returned since the last time he got it from Althea.
Now it is just right for Lockhart to use, but despite this, Ivan still tells Lockhart not to ruin his reputation by going to power at will.
......
Traveling all the way to the venue of the dueling club, Ivan found that the decoration in the large exhibition hall was very different from the last one.
The flags of the four academies were hung high in the air, and with the gentle breeze floating, the four high stages were placed in the center, ensuring that most of the students could take the stage for the rest of the night.
Ivan was sure it wasn't Lockhart's idea, because this guy would just set the stage so that everyone's eyes could be on him.
"There are so many people here..."Ivan looked at the bustling exhibition hall, somewhat surprised, the little wizards who came here tonight seemed to be even more than the last time.
He had thought that yesterday's attack would affect the holding of today's dueling club.
As Ivan thought this, an ethereal voice sounded behind him.
"Because everyone is worried, they want to know how to protect themselves..."
Ivan turned his head to look behind him, and behind him was a familiar figure in a Ravenclaw robe.
"Lou... Ahem..."Ivan almost slipped his mouth, but remembered that Lockhart and Luna were not so familiar in time, so he changed his words.
"Miss Lovegood, you have a point, yes, that's why I hold the Duel Club."
"By the way, Miss Lovegood, did you come to me for something?" Ivan wondered what Luna was doing with Lockhart, and she wasn't a fan of Lockhart.
Luna's silver-gray eyes looked at him for a moment, but she didn't reply, and suddenly pointed to his right wrist after half a ring.
Ivan looked down in confusion before noticing the magic ring on his wrist.
"So it's because of this..."Ivan sighed, he didn't expect him to be so cautious, but he still revealed his identity because of the magic ring.
"I've been carrying it with me before I saw you, so I guess you wouldn't give this thing to someone else, would you? In addition, the real Professor Lockhart will immediately walk up to the stage so that everyone can see him first..."
Luna gushes about what is wrong with Ivan, which is as interesting to her as solving a puzzle.
"I'm glad that not every student is as smart as you, otherwise I would have just gone back." Ivan said helplessly, but Luna clearly told him what was missing in the disguise.
Thinking of this, Ivan removed the magic ring from his right hand and placed it on Luna's wrist as she watched her in amazement.
"You were wrong just now, and I will temporarily hand over this thing to others for safekeeping when necessary!"
"You can use its power in the dueling arena, but in exchange, you'll have to cover for me when asked." Ivan said with a smile.
There are a lot of smart little wizards in the whole Hogwarts, and those professors are not easy to deal with, and he has a bracelet on his right hand, which is estimated to be noticed by many people.
Placed here by Luna, it can be said that it is temporarily lent to her...
Sou~
After agreeing with Luna, Ivan raised his wand and shot a magical ray into the air, which exploded in midair, and colorful fluorescent light sprinkled from the air.
"I'm so glad to see so many people here today!" Ivan was attracting everyone's attention, adjusted his expression, walked onto the stage, looked around at everyone, and said loudly.
"I think you've all heard about yesterday's attack and are worried about it, eager to learn some magic to protect yourself in today's lesson.... That's why this dueling course was created in the first place! ”
"But what I want to tell you is that in addition to practicing spell casting skills to improve your strength, it is more important to be vigilant at all times!
Many Dark Wizards appear to be harmless on the surface, and even offer some help to gain trust, as do some Dark Magic items.
I've heard the saying "Don't trust anything that is self-conscious unless you know exactly where its brain is..."
Ivan's gaze swept over the crowd below, watching everyone's expressions and movements, and remembering them one by one.
However, Ivan didn't dare to say it too clearly, so he could only mention it a little bit through Lockhart's identity, and let them pay attention to it at ordinary times, it was best to go with three or five people, and come to him immediately if they found anything abnormal!
After some preaching, Ivan found that the little wizards below were dizzy and drowsy, and only a few people took his words to heart, and several professors were impressed by him and nodded frequently.
"Well, it seems that you have little interest in what I have to say, so now let's start our lesson for today." Ivan shrugged helplessly, and turned to speak loudly.
"Now, Snape, your Potions professor and head of the Slytherin Academy, is my opponent! We'll show you what a real wizard duel is! ”
As Ivan's words fell, the sleepy little wizards suddenly woke up a lot, and their eyes were on the other side of the platform, looking forward to Snape's appearance.
The duel between the two professors is extremely rare, and they are speculating who will win in the end...
