Chapter 235: The Potter Family's Cloak of Invisibility

While Shewin was still wondering, Potter covered his chest and coughed lightly, not looking completely unaffected by Shewin's fusion spell.

"I lost this game." Potter spoke suddenly.

Xiwen's eyes widened, and he asked suspiciously, "But I am the one who fell under the dueling table, why do you admit defeat?" ”

Professor Mellors was about to decide that Shevan's challenge had failed, and when he heard Potter's words, he stopped reading the results and looked at him with an inquiring eye.

Potter slowly descended from the air with a broomstick, and then pulled something out of the pocket of his school robe.

It first flowed like a puddle of liquid in Potter's hand, and then, he pinched a corner and drooped it down, and the people in front of him immediately saw that Potter's front was distorted by an object of unknown material, as if the air in front of him had been deformed by a scorching flame.

"So what is this?" Shivin looked at the distorted air in bewilderment, wondering what Potter meant now.

"It's an invisibility cloak." Potter unfolded his hand and spoke. "It was it that blocked Rozier's spell attack just now, otherwise I would probably be unconscious by now."

According to the characteristics of the invisibility cloak, this magical clothing can conceal the form of the object surrounded by the cloth. If nothing is wrapped in it, more than two layers of fabric will overlap each other, which can lead to an unnatural invisibility effect, resulting in a visual effect that is distorted in space.

When not needed, folding the cloak into multiple layers can reduce its invisibility effect.

This is also the way most wizards with an invisibility cloak choose to make the cloak look more visible when they don't need it. Otherwise, the cloak will become invisible on its own, leaving wizards with no way to trace it.

This also confirms the reason for the distorted visual effect of Potter's hand just now.

"Invisibility cloak?" Seeing this scene, Xiwen was a little dazed, and turned his head to look at Professor Meles in the referee's seat.

Professor Meles also frowned, looked inquiringly at Professor Kettleburn, who was sitting next to the scoreboard in the audience, and asked, "Sylvanus, can something like the invisibility cloak really stop the spell that Rozier just cast?" ”

Professor Kettleburn gave a curious look in his eyes and stood up and walked towards the dueling table.

"As far as I know, most high-quality invisibility cloaks are made from the hair of the Invisible, but I've never heard of the Invisible Beast's hair being so resistant to spells." With his remaining right hand, a cane on his crutches, Professor Kettleburn limped forward as he muttered.

His wooden cane and the two wooden legs under his feet alternately made a "Dongdong" sound, constantly tapping against the floor.

"If it weren't for the invisibility cloak made of the hair of the invisible beast, but the inferior version made by casting a disillusionment spell or blinding method on an ordinary travel cloak, I don't think it would have such a good texture in your hand." He continued.

Seeing this, Potter quickly stepped down from the dueling table and handed Professor Kettleburn the transparent invisibility cloak in his hand, for fear that he would fall to the ground as he walked up the stairs.

Professor Kettleburn took the cloak and looked at it over and over in his hand.

"Very good texture, I dare say that the invisible beast that Newt is taking care of at home doesn't have such good quality hair." He exclaimed. "It's not so much a weave of hair as a complete, seamless cloak of invisibility."

"And it resisted a spell that was so powerful just now, and didn't there be any cracks or even the slightest mark on it?"

"I don't know very well, I've only been borrowing it from my cousin for a few months, and I'm not sure what it will do." Potter scratched his head and replied. "This is also an ancestral heirloom of the Potter family, it should be no more than a hundred years old."

"Then I'll be sure it's not an invisibility cloak made of incognito beast's hair." Professor Kettleburn nodded and continued. "Most invisibility cloaks wear out after a long period of use, at least losing some of their effectiveness. Even the best invisibility cloak made of incognito beast hair is no exception! ”

"Presumably, there was a great alchemist in your family's ancestors, who forged an invisibility cloak that would not lose its effectiveness over time. If that's the case, it shouldn't be a problem to add a few more defenses against spells! ”

With that, Professor Kettleburn nodded to Professor Melles.

Professor Meleth bowed slightly, turned to Potter and said, "Since this is the case, it can be determined that Mr. Potter used a defensive alchemy product that violates the rules of the duel, and it should be directly judged as negative." ”

"Do you have any objection to that, Mr. Potter?"

Potter shook his head slightly, and said to Professor Meleth, "I have no objection. ”

"Okay, in that case, then the winner of this duel in the end will be ......"

"Wait!" A clear voice suddenly came from the audience, interrupting Professor Meles's announcement of the final results.

Professor Meleth turned his head to look in the direction from which the voice came from, and asked with some confusion, "Mr. Rozier, do you have any questions?" ”

"This way of winning is not a bit of a victory, and I don't agree with that." Xiwen shook his head and said. "The invisibility cloak is a defensive alchemy product that only has a role before the end of the duel, and it does not affect the overall course of the duel match."

"Therefore, I propose that the judges judge the final duel situation and decide the winner!"

"Rozier, you don't have to ......," Potter was stunned for a moment, and quickly spoke.

"Senior Potter, it's not like I don't want this victory." Shivin interrupted Potter with a shake of his head. "I just want to beat you in dignity and then go to the seventh grade dueling ring to challenge Miranda."

As he spoke, he glanced towards the seventh-grade dueling table.

And Miranda happened to be looking in the direction of Xiwen.

After seeing his gaze, Miranda slightly curled the corners of her mouth, casually touched the pair of metal-rimmed glasses given by Xiwen on the bridge of her tall nose, and then showed him an approving smile.

Challus Potter, who was in front of Xiwen, smiled when he heard Xiwen's explanation, and stretched out his hand to him.

The two hands clasped together, and Shiwin and Potter looked at each other and smiled.

"Nice to meet you, Rozier." Potter laughed. "At the end of next month, I'll still be waiting for you at the top of the sixth-grade standings!"

"Okay, then wait until a month later, and have a fair and just duel!" Xiwen also said with a smile.

Professor Meles shook his head helplessly when he saw that neither of them had already arranged a duel at the end of the next month before they had even asked her opinion.

"Now that you've all decided, let's decide the winner according to Rozier's proposal." She said to the two.

"It has been determined that after excluding the influence of defensive alchemy products, after being hit by the last spell of Shivin Rozier, there is a high probability that Charles Potter will be seriously injured and 100% will lose the ability to continue fighting."

"Given that the time when Shivin Rozier fell under the dueling ring was roughly the same as the time of Charles Potter's curse, I once again decided that the final result of this duel between the first in the third-year standings and the first-place in the sixth-grade standings was-"

"A draw between the two sides!"

As Professor Meles read out the final duel, the auditorium burst into applause.
