As soon as Kyle arrives on stage, there is a burst of cheers around him.

Fred and George were the loudest of the bunch, and they even spent a minute making a Quidditch-like cheering banner that they waved underneath.

Cedric and Cho also ran over with a handful of latte ribbons to join in the fun.

Seriously, it's the first time Kyle wishes he had never known them.

"Alright Kyle, don't be nervous." Lockhart said, "I'll teach you a trick now, and when Flint points his wand at you, you do it." ”

He raised his wand and swung it from side to side, trying to conjure up a complicated pattern, but accidentally dropped it on the ground.

There was a burst of laughter.

Lockhart hurriedly picked it up and said, "Haha...... My wand is a little overexcited. ”

Snape approached Marcus and whispered a few words to him, who sneered.

"There's no need to worry." Lockhart happily patted Kyle on the shoulder, "Even though he's in sixth grade, as long as he does what I just did, there's nothing to be afraid of." ”

"What, drop your wand on the ground?"

Lockhart acted like he hadn't heard.

"Are you ready?" He shouted, "Three...... Two...... One, get started! ”

Marcus quickly raised his wand......

"Armor protection!"

"Oolong out of the hole!"

I don't know if Snape told him something, or if he learned the lesson just now, this time he took the lead in putting a shield on himself, and instead of using a curse, he conjured a thick and long black snake.

This type of spell, armor is useless.

Kyle knew this too, but he hadn't planned to continue using the Iron Armor Charm.

As Black Serpent raised his head and prepared to attack, Kyle's spell was also completed.

"Fall quickly!"

Marcus stumbled on his feet, and his legs suddenly sank into the stage.

The Swamp Charm, taught to him by Flitwick at the Charms Club, can turn hard ground into muddy swamps, and is one of the trap spells commonly used in duels.

Marcus, who had been hit, tilted his body, and the fire spell he had just prepared was interrupted.

Kyle dodged the pounced black snake sideways and raised his wand.

The black snake writhed into a rope and flew back to Marcus, binding his wrists and arms.

"Throw in the towel?" Kyle laughed.

Marcus didn't speak, just stared at Kyle in hatred as he struggled to raise his wand.

"Okay, got it."

Kyle took a deep breath and cast the Transfiguration Charm again.

The stage behind Marcus began to bulge upwards, transforming into a huge stone statue two meters high.

In the midst of everyone's horrified gaze, the stone statue raised the long-handled axe in its hand, briefly gathered strength, and then swung it violently.

There was a burst of screams around, and the nearby crowd subconsciously retreated, and many people even covered their eyes, not daring to look at the next scene.

"I throw in the towel!" Marcus shouted heartbreakingly.

"Enough!"

At the same time, Snape also stretched out his wand, "All petrified!" ”

The stone statue stopped instantly, and the huge axe blade was fixed in mid-air.

"Do you want to kill Flint?"

Snape roared angrily, "Hufflepuff deducts a hundred ......"

"Professor, I think you're mistaken."

Kyle interrupted him, "If you look closely, you'll see that I didn't mean that. ”

"Kyle is right, Professor Snape." Lockhart walked over and looked at the statue.

"The axe is a foot off, and even if it falls, it will only hit the stage next to it, and Flint won't be hurt at all."

"When I was traveling in Valloga, I often used this way to scare the evil creatures, and they all realized their mistake and never dared to harm anyone again," he said cheerfully. ”

Snape didn't listen to Lockhart at all.

"Why do you want to do that......" he said coldly, looking at Kyle, "a disarming spell can lead to victory." ”

"I'm sorry, Professor Snape." Kyle said, "I've just been introduced to the Disarming Charm today, and I'm not proficient yet, so it's easier. ”

Snape's face turned a little ugly.

Partial deformation of objects, which is a high-end technique that only the 7th grade improvement class will be exposed to...... Simpler than a disarming charm?

How did he say that, and was everyone really an idiot like Lockhart?

Snape's chest heaved violently, and he didn't bother to talk nonsense with Kyle anymore, reaching out in the direction of the auditorium door.

"Hufflepuff deducts fifty points!"

"Get out, now!"

Kyle didn't say anything, put away his wand and strode out of the auditorium.

He originally wanted to use the time of the dueling club to observe who was behaving abnormally, but now it seems that there is no such opportunity.

But so far, the people he knows are ...... Ron, Harry, and Lockhart were all the same, and none of them looked like they had been controlled by a diary.

If you look at it any further, it probably won't be useful.

"If I knew that I wouldn't come, I lost fifty points in vain." As he walked out of the auditorium, Kyle sighed.

At this time, Connor, Cedric and others also walked out with them.

"Thanks to you, Kyle." Fred laughed and said, "I wanted to leave for a long time, but unfortunately I never found the opportunity." ”

"yes, you can't learn anything from Lockhart and Snape." George glanced at the door of the Great Hall, "I don't think the monsters in the Chamber of Secrets will bow when they see me." ”

As he spoke, he also learned from Lockhart and flipped a few gestures, "Oh...... It's stupid. ”

"That stone statue you just had was so cool." Cedric also said, "I didn't expect Professor McGonagall to mention partial deformation last week, and you learned it." ”

"That's it." Connor pointed to a stone statue at the entrance to the auditorium, "It's exactly the same as the one just now." ”

A few of you say a word, and you don't give Kyle a chance to interject at all.

"I ......"

As soon as Kyle made a noise, Cedric slapped him on the shoulder.

"You don't have to worry about getting deducted points." He smiled and said, "It's only fifty points, we Hufflepuffs don't care about that." ”

"yes." Fred also said: "Gryffindor is always at the bottom, and we are very happy, just get used to it." ”

"If I can teach that Marcus Flint a lesson, I can deduct a hundred points."

Professor McGonagall probably wouldn't be happy to hear that.

"I didn't care about being deducted points." Kyle smiled, "Don't forget that last year, Snape was able to deduct me fifty points for two lessons. ”

"That's right......," George nodded, "Look, I just said we don't need to comfort him." ”

"If I had known this, I wouldn't have said things against my will." Fred muttered, "Actually, we care a lot about the scores. ”

It was late, and several people were separated on the stairs.

Back in the deserted Hufflepuff common room, Cedric was still talking about Kyle's Transfiguration Charm.

"It's a pity that Professor McGonagall wasn't there, otherwise she wouldn't have let Snape deduct points......"

"I just gave it a try." Kyle said, "Maybe the stage is a patchwork, and it's not really a whole, so it's a lot easier to operate." ”

"That's pretty remarkable, too." Cedric sat down on a couch, "That's a big statue...... Even if it's a normal deformation, I can at best make it look like a rough idea, let alone make it move flexibly. ”

"You don't need to be flexible, that's too cumbersome, just focus on what matters most." Kyle said, "Just like just now, I used the stone statue's weapon to move its arms......"

"What do you mean...... Coherence after the deformation of the object? But under normal circumstances, the arm of the stone statue is fixed, isn't it to disperse some of the magic power? ”

"Stone statues can't work, but armor can......"

"Armor...... I see, I see, you changed its structure from the very beginning. Cedric excitedly said, "I should have thought of it, Professor McGonagall said it before......"

Connor stood next to him, blinking blankly.

What's the situation...... These two people were fine just now, why did they suddenly discuss Transfiguration, and she couldn't understand a word of what they said.
