"I can't walk on the ice. If I summon a layer of ice all over my body. It's like a trap. Those hounds can't cross the ice and attack Seamus."
"Good job, Seamus."
The students couldn't help but applaud Seamus's cleverness. They seemed to have seen Seamus's victory.
Seamus himself thought the same. Dean's failure taught him a lesson. When he was besieged by a group of hounds, not many people could react.
So he planned to pass the trap from the beginning to avoid the frontal conflict with the hound. Once the hound can't attack him, he can naturally attack the hound at will.
Seamus summoned the flames in time and threw them towards the hounds.
"Too naive to think."
Seeing Seamer's behavior, George could only say that the child was naive. The deformed monsters controlled by wizards are completely two concepts compared to ordinary wild dogs.
Sure enough, Seamus lost faster than Dean Thomas.
He was staring at a hound in front of him.
Behind him, a hunting dog had hit him like a sled running at high speed.
Even with the protection of the iron armor curse, the huge collision still made Seamus lose his balance.
Those students who were still cheering for Seamus just now closed their mouths. They didn't expect it to be such a result, Seamus was defeated faster than Dean.
Being crushed by a big dog, no one thought that Seamus had the qualifications to continue fighting.
After Seamore was defeated, Professor McGonagall continued to arrange students one after another, asking them to challenge the group of hounds and let them understand their shortcomings immersively.
The results of the defeat of one student after another were unacceptable to the students.
A fifth-grade wizard can't handle a group of hounds, which is beyond their imagination.
"How is it possible, how can we lose?"
"We are wizards, how could we lose to a group of hounds?"
"Why did we fight a group of hounds? If we can't even fight a group of hounds, what is the meaning of the magic we learn?"
Some students began to question their abilities and the meaning of magic.
"These hounds are also magic. They are the use of transfiguration. You don't have the ability to do so. Don't rely on magic."
"Is the magic we learned useless?"
The students began to argue with each other, not knowing how to defeat these monsters controlled by the wizard.
Looking at the students in these disputes, George had to say that his transformation of Hogwarts was completely necessary. These students without actual combat experience are incredibly fragile.
If there is a life-and-death struggle, untrained students, even many staff members of the Ministry of Magic, they are not as good as a Muggle soldier.
You know, these students have performed much better than previous students.
In the past few years, George has been promoted in the dueling club. Most students have experience in fighting and dueling, and their strength has far surpassed their previous peers.
They were not completely frightened in the face of the hounds that swarmed up. They at least know how to use iron armor curses and how to use traps, but that's all.
Putting untrained soldiers on the battlefield is murder, and throwing wizards without proper education and training into society will also directly destroy them.
"Okay, be quiet."
Professor McGonagall motioned to them to be quiet, "Your performance is disappointing."
Under Professor McGonagall’s disappointed tone, the students bowed their heads, and even they themselves couldn’t imagine.
They are in the fifth grade, and they still lose to a group of hounds that have been summoned.
"I probably understand why the principal should completely change Hogwarts teaching." Professor McGonagall said slowly, "This is not your fault, this is our fault, this is Hogwarts teaching. wrong."
She sighed and said, "We didn't educate you as real wizards, and the school failed to teach you how to protect yourself."
At this moment, she had to admit that George's transformation of Hogwarts was completely necessary. Those students who had graduated from Hogwarts had not even learned the ability to protect themselves at Hogwarts.
Professor McGonagall turned his gaze to Harry, "Now we need a correct demonstration, Harry, you go up."
"it is good."
Harry walked into the middle of the field in the eyes of others' expectations.
This time, Professor McGonagall didn't wait for Harri to take the first shot, she directly controlled the hounds and rushed towards Harry.
The siege that made other students helpless was like a joke full of flaws in Harry's eyes.
He pointed his wand lightly, and a huge bear turned into mud had already leaped on the hounds.
The hounds separated a few to pinch the giant bear and the rest rushed at Harry again.
Completely different from the rush of other classmates, Harry was like a cunning hunter and a skilled warrior.
He circled the giant bear in the mud, always facing the hounds.
Under the swing of his wand, the grass on the ground seemed to grow hands, tightly binding the running hounds.
A series of raised steps appeared in front of the hounds running. Before they could change direction, they slammed into the steps.
When they jumped over the steps, they had not yet stood firm, and would face the collision of the giant bear again.
Professor McGonagall nodded and pointed at everyone, analyzing Harry's key points in the battle.
"When facing a large number of opponents, there is no doubt about reducing their speed and dividing their number. But this does not mean that you can roughly put the trap in front of yourself. The traps are not divided. Enemy, it doesn’t know who the enemy is."
Professor McGonagall frowned, "I was very dissatisfied just now. You didn't even think about using Transfiguration. Although it is a bit too difficult for you to transform a giant bear, but transform one or two hunting dogs, I think This is still within your capabilities."
In the battle just now, none of the students had used the Transfiguration Curse. This made her begin to reflect on her teaching. Her previous requirements for students seemed too rigid.
A spell that cannot be used in battle, what is the difference between that and a joke?
Professor McGonagall said dissatisfiedly, "Use one or two hounds to drag the enemy's speed. This is what you should have thought of from the beginning.
The other students were silent. Transfiguration is a very delicate spell. Using Transfiguration in battle is much more difficult than using other spells.
