52- Hunting a Troll

52- Hunting a Troll

After sharing his thoughts with Daphne, a complicated emotion flashed in Daphne's eyes.

Naturally, she had heard of magical animals like trolls.

It has a huge body, rough skin and thick flesh, and extremely low intelligence. To say it is as stupid as a pig is an insult to a pig. The worst score in the wizard exam is even represented by its name.

To fight a monster that's twelve feet tall and weighs over a ton, you'd be lying if you said you weren't afraid. 'But isn't it that I learned such useful and magical spells from Rhys just to come in handy at this moment?'

Daphne took a deep breath, nodded vigorously, and was ready to participate in the actual combat trial.

The two of them followed Prefect Gemma silently, but gradually slowed down their pace, falling to the end of the crowd little by little. Then they found an opportunity to break away from the crowd and hid in an uninhabited corner.

"The question is, how do we find the giant monster?" Daphne was mentally prepared and realized that Hogwarts Castle is so big, where would they find the giant monster that broke in?

If you blindly walk in circles in the castle, the probability of encountering a professor is much greater than the probability of running into a troll, and you will be caught by the professors as a 'little troll'.

"This is simple." Rhys took out his wand, and in the next second dozens of small snakes as long as his index finger emerged from the tip of the wand, fell to the ground, and started twisting around.

Looking at the scene in front of her, even though she was a student of Slytherin House, Daphne couldn't help but get goosebumps all over her body.

"A very practical spell. If you want to learn it, I will teach you later."

"No need!" Faced with Rhys' "kindness", Daphne frantically shook her head.Alll latest novels at novelhall.com

Rhys was silent for a second and then defended his magic: "The spell has much more to offer. The conjured creature doesn't have to be a snake, you can also turn it into a sparrow, a crow, etc."

Daphne reluctantly accepted Rhys's spell.

Moments later, Rhys found the troll that had broken into the castle. However, while searching for the troll, he also made some interesting discoveries, such as what he saw at the entrance of the corridor on the right side of the third floor of the castle.

It seemed that there was something unusual hidden behind that corridor, otherwise, his head of the house would not have rushed to guard it. Rhys narrowed his eyes slightly.

It reached out its hand toward Daphne but before it could touch her, Daphne flew away.

The giant monster looked around blankly on the ground. It didn't understand why the delicacy that was here just now disappeared in the blink of an eye.

"OOOggghh!"

At this time, a condescending flash of light hit the giant monster's broad back, leaving a wound that almost ran across the back but was no more than two inches deep. The smelly blood oozed from the wound accompanied by the monster's scream.

The wounds looked horrifying, but to the troll, they were really just flesh wounds.

The troll suddenly raised its head, and its small head the size of a cocoa bean looked at Daphne floating in the air, its small eyes shining with hatred.

*Roar* *Swish!*

The next moment, the wooden stick in its hand swung towards her, making an explosive sound that pierced the air. Daphne narrowly avoided the blow and then left another wound on the troll's body.

Unfortunately, the wound left by this attack was not as big as the first one.

The giant monster was completely enraged and its attack became even more violent.

Rhys watched the battle between Daphne and the troll without any emotion. In his opinion, Daphne still has a long way to go. If the first shot had been aimed at the troll's head, the battle would have been over long ago. Daphne, who was fighting for the first time, still performed abnormally due to nervousness.

But to be fair, Daphne has done quite well. How many young witches and wizards have the courage and ability to confront trolls at her age? Not to mention that Daphne seemed to have the upper hand.

"!!"

Suddenly, the battle situation changed, and Rhys's hand hidden in his robe couldn't help but grasp the handle of the wand.
