Chapter 67: The end of the third school year
Draco's fighting style is very similar to Dafanie's, if you don't shoot, it's just a set of combo pursuits. It's not too late to combine the gaiter spell with the sword spell, and the next moment is the Ice Imprisonment Trap.
However, Draco's combos were gorgeous, but Ron's next performance was even more surprising.
Seeing the sword spell coming, Ron slammed his wand into the ring floor. The original red carpet floor was unexpectedly made a big wave of water. The huge water elemental hand stretched out from the water waves, blocking the sword spell that fell from the sky. At the same time, another large hand pushed Ron out of the way, avoiding being frozen into ice by the Ice Trap.
"Water resistance? Wrong! No! Daphne, who was originally trying to resist the sword, lit up her eyes when she saw this, and stopped what she was doing. Daphne is a master of fire resistance and water resistance, and she knows very well the form of this magic, and the one in front of her is definitely not water resistance. But what now?
Before Daphany could figure it out, Ron gave her the answer.
The two huge water elemental hands merged, and they turned into a water elemental giant four or five meters tall.
"What kind of magic is this?" A sixth-grader who helped Daphany with the security of the game muttered in surprise.
"I see, elemental golem?" Daphany recognized it. Ron uses an advanced use of Transfiguration, the elemental golem of the battle golem. To be precise, a water golem within an elemental golem.
Although the water golem is the easiest of the elemental golems to summon, it is already a very clever means of magic. At least, none of the current Daphany is playing this.
Daphany recognized the water golem, as did some of the other children of the family. Among them was Draco, who was facing.
To tell the truth, at this moment, Draco was mentally cold. This victory and defeat aside, in terms of magic attainments alone, Draco is definitely compared to Weasley, whom he has always looked down on! Puppetry, an advanced use of Transfiguration, was something Draco had thought about, but it was too complicated to study. But at the same age, Ron can already use it.
However, Draco's hands did not relax. Although the elemental golem is a high-level magic application, it is ultimately the lowest form of a magic golem. High-level standards do not mean power. Draco can't, but that doesn't mean he can't deal with it.
Draco took two steps back, a cold glint flashing in his eyes, and the next moment his wand flicked. Thick black smoke came out of the tip of his wand, forming a hideous grimace in front of him.
Daphany raised her eyebrows, and most of the other senior students around her were secretly frightened. Dueling clubs are a place to exchange fighting skills, and black magic is certainly not uncommon. However, there are really not many people who use this relatively advanced black magic that the darkness has swallowed. The main thing is that there are not many people who can. Although this magic is not really rare black magic, it is not a big road commodity like the Fear Charm and the Oolong Out of the Cave.
The five-meter-tall Water Elemental Golem Giant walked towards Draco with a determined stride. Hit the black smoke grimace head-on.
Daphne noticed that the water golem giant's movements were stiff, and it was clear that Ron was not comfortable manipulating. Looking at Ron, he was indeed sweating profusely. Obviously, although he can use this magic, he is far from proficient.
Ron clearly didn't recognize the Darkness Encroachment. Daphne pouted secretly, from the moment he attacked directly from the Water Elemental Golem, he had lost!
Sure enough, the nearly five-meter-tall water elemental puppet collided with the grimace condensed by the black smoke and began to shrink rapidly. In a moment, it was only half of the original. And instead of showing signs of decay, the black smoke grimace looked even bigger.
Daphne shook her head, the water and fire elements were the lowest of the elemental golems. Because it is easy to be restrained, it is not even necessary to use such advanced black magic as dark enroachment, even with the demon hunting net in white magic. However, if it is a wood golem or an earth golem, or the highest metal golem among the elemental golems, it will be much better. Water and fire are all elemental bodies, and they can be used by a lot of magic, but the latter few are all entities, although it is not that they cannot be dealt with, but at least they are not easily dealt with by dark encroachment or demon hunting nets.
However, it was only the water elemental that Ron had summoned!
Moments later, the water elemental was engulfed by the black smoke grimace, which more than doubled in size.
"Alright, so be it!" Daphany stopped Ron, who was gritting his teeth: "It's a great matchup. He took the lead and applauded.
Most of the young wizards who came to participate in the dueling club were willing to give Dafanie face, not to mention that although this competition was not long, it was indeed a high-level competition. So there was thunderous applause for a while.
It was the first time that Ron had received a round of applause from his own house for adding 50 points to the House Cup in his first year, and it was the first time that Ron had received a round of applause from all the branches in the room. Even though it was shared with Draco, it still made Ron happy. Flying
After that, Draco and Ron stepped down. The two of them still look at each other unkindly, and neither of them obeys anyone.
If it were to be said that Draco had the upper hand in this duel by the end, he would have a much better chance of winning if he continued to fight. After all, the darkness encroached and absorbed a water puppet, but its power increased dramatically. But when it comes to the performance of magical attainments, Draco is a lot worse than Ron.
Although Dark Encroachment is a powerful and practical high-level black magic. However, compared to the high-level form of the Transfiguration Magic Golem, it is inferior in magic attainments after all. In other words, as long as you know the spell gestures and have a brief understanding, most of the students above the third grade present can learn the dark encroachment in a short time. But Ron's magic puppet is not good, it can be said that all the students present, including Daphany, have not been able to do the level of Ron just now without months of serious study.
Therefore, although Ron also knew that he had just continued to fight, there was a chance that he would suffer. But he was still not convinced. Draco and Draco made eye contact, sparks and lightning flickering.
"Ron, you're amazing. What was that just now? Harry asked in surprise as he watched Ron come down.
"Magic Golem!" Ron had a smug look on his face, but he deliberately suppressed his excitement. He whispered, "Do you remember the chess pieces on the big chessboard when we were in the first grade?" ”
"War puppets?" Two years later, Harry still remembers the shock.
"Almost, but not as powerful." Ron said a little disappointed, but then he was happy again: "But I already know the general direction of research." Maybe it won't be long before we get results! ”
Harry listened excitedly, nodding his head with pleasure. The two of them leaned aside and whispered.
After that, the other students had a few exchanges with each other and exchanged experiences. Daphany is still uninterested, and can only point out the shortcomings of other students on the side.
During this time, Daphany pointed out Neville alone for a moment. Neville didn't move much throughout the year, spending all his time studying and researching magic. He participates in the dueling club almost every time, the most attended academy except for Blais Shabini. Brace has participated in every event without fail, and even Daphany or Draco or Harry have missed no less than five events due to personal matters or Quidditch training.
Neville only missed once due to illness, and participated in the rest every time. This makes his magic much better. However, because he almost never shows himself in front of people, and always practices alone in the corner, few people know about it. Except for Daphine.
In fact, even if someone pays attention, they don't particularly care. Because the current Neville is the excellent level of the normal third grade. Compared to the exceptionally good Daphany or Hermione, even Draco and Harry are inconspicuous. If it were in previous years, it might have attracted a little attention, but there are too many eye-catching characters in this year's Sons of the Plane.
Neville's level is considered a normal third-year excellent level, and the addition of a normal one is because in fact, Neville's performance is indeed not outstanding. Especially some fine magic, he always doesn't manipulate it well. It made him look less than that good.
But Daphne could feel that Neville's magic was amazingly powerful, and both Harry and Draco were far from each other! As for Ron or Hermione, it's even worse. Even the fourth and fifth graders were not as good as the students, and Daphany felt that even in the sixth grade, she had to be a better student to be better than Neville at this time.
Neville's unsatisfactory performance is due to the old problem of his wand!
He pointed out some of Neville's spell-casting tips, and then instructed a few girls, rubbing oil by the way. Daphany decided that it was too late, so she announced the end of the event. Let's go back and rest and prepare for the graduation dinner in the evening.
The evening dinner was nothing special, except that the Gryffindor House Cup trifecta was cut off. Gryffindor won the Quidditch Cup this year, but not as many points as Slytherin and the other Branches. Especially in the final Black incident, except for Daphany who did not suffer because of her 'brave resistance', the other three were all deducted a lot of points...... As for the incident of clearing Blake's charges, given that it has nothing to do with the teaching of the college, it has not become a plus after all.
Unfortunately, Slytherin also did not win the House Cup. If they had won 100 points in the Quidditch Cup, they would have taken first place, but unfortunately they did not, and although they were ahead of Gryffindor, they were 80 points behind Ravenclaw, who finished first.
After the score was announced, Draco once again received the unkind attention of the whole team and even the entire branch. Yes, if in the last game he gets the Golden Snitch. Not only is the Quidditch Cup theirs, but so is the House Cup.
The usually bullish young master Malfoy bowed his head and shrunk his neck obediently by these eyes. Like a quail being targeted by a flock of vultures.
When the dinner is over, the school year is completely over. Early the next morning, the college didn't even prepare breakfast, and the students were hungry to catch the train. Anyway, the food is still sold on the train.
Sitting on the train, looking at the castle that gradually disappeared from view, Daphany had already begun to think about the arrangements for the summer vacation.
