v3 Chapter 219： It's a rare opportunity

"Look, there's light there!" Hermione and Padma circled a few times after disposing of the red hat, and finally saw a glimmer of light.

After confirming again and again that this was not some kind of bait from Xinke Punk, the two quickened their pace and ran towards the light. The light gradually expanded, and at last the two of them recognized that it was a cave that could be drilled by one person.

Both Hermione and Padma were walking faster and faster, falling into a mud puddle from time to time, but that didn't stop them from going on until—

"Ah!" Padma screamed, clutching her ankle and falling to the side.

Hermione stopped immediately and cast an iron armor spell around her before stepping forward to check on Padma's situation.

Padma had pulled a piece of wood from his ankle at this time, and a large pool of blood quickly splattered from the ankle, soaking the stockings.

Both identified the culprit: the swamp digger. This is an animal that lives in the swamps of Europe and the United States. It looks like a piece of wood when it is stationary, but upon closer inspection, it turns out that it actually has claws with fins on the claws - a structure that allows it to glide through the swamp. . Its unusually sharp teeth help it prey on small mammals and can also cause serious damage to pedestrians' ankles.

This kind of magical beast is not difficult to deal with, but the magical part is actually a 3X level magical animal, and a Voldemort 1st level - the red hat who just tried to attack Hermione is 4X, and a phoenix level.

The magical world's classification of magical beasts is indeed somewhat rigid. 4X is dangerous and requires specialized knowledge for skilled wizards to deal with animals, 3X is for competent wizards. If you judge the danger based on the X level, it is killing. In the wild, encountering a Voldemort bat can be far more dangerous than encountering a phoenix.

Swamp digging does little damage, but if not handled properly, it can easily lead to wound infections, especially in environments like swamps.

Of course, none of this is a problem for wizards.

"Healing as ever!" Hermione pointed her wand at Padma's ankle, and with a single tap, the wound on her ankle healed.

"Be careful, I feel like the final level is approaching." Hermione said after estimating the time.

The two of them cheered up and walked towards the hole. Fortunately, Professor Lupin retained a trace of goodwill and did not set any other traps along the way.

Hermione cast herself an Iron Charm and got out of the hole. Padma followed her example, but she didn't know the Iron Armor spell, so she could only hide behind Hermione.

Their caution was a bit redundant, because Tom Yodell in the new room had no intention of attacking them at all, but just stood in the center of the room and waited quietly for the next group of challengers to arrive. On the wall on one side of the house, there are more than a dozen wands, and behind Tom is what looks like a treasure chest.

"Hermione...and Padma, good morning!" He greeted the two of them enthusiastically, and flew the spell that Hermione fired with the Iron Armor.

"It's too much, Hermione! I didn't even want to attack you!" Tom put on a very hurt expression. According to his idea, the whole room must be covered with fog that can't be seen, and then block the hole, to stun one by one.

However, this assessment method was obviously not accepted by Professor Lupin. So Tom can only stand here openly and fight against the little wizards who are refreshed regularly.

His final result is linked to the pass rate of these little wizards! So in order to achieve "excellent", Tom seriously knocked out every little wizard who arrived here, and handed over their wands by the way.

On the wall over there is his "trophy".

"Through my test, you can open this treasure chest." Tom pointed to the treasure chest behind him with a smile, and turned an hourglass over in his arms.

"This opportunity is quite rare, so let's have a good experience..." Tom lifted his sleeves to reveal his wand, "Let's fight, Granger, Patil!"

"Except your weapons!"

"Armor protection!"

Before Padma could react, Tom and Hermione had a confrontation once, and their movements were smooth and smooth, as if the two often duel.

In fact, Padma really read it right, Tom and Hermione did fight a lot. This semester, Professor Lupin gave Harry many small stoves, and Tom and Hermione also participated in Professor Lupin's teaching. These lessons all culminate in a duel between the two. Therefore, it can be said that two people are familiar with things like duels.

"It's time to be serious!"

Tom put his wand to his lips and blew it hard, and a fire dragon was blown out. The fire dragon circled and turned into a wall of fire between Tom and Hermione.

After this semester's experience, Tom's understanding of the spell of flame protection has become deeper and deeper, and the image of flames has become more and more abundant.

Relying on this wall of fire, Tom fought back and forth with Hermione.

"Hold on!" Hermione stepped aside and slammed her wand on the floor—there were no desks and chairs in this classroom, which was a bit of a disadvantage for Hermione. In the past, she deformed the tables and chairs to interfere with Tom, and finally destroyed Tom's firewall.

Fortunately, although there are no tables and chairs today, there are friends. Hermione sold Padma decisively and let her face Tom's attack to buy herself some time.

"All curses end!"

Every duel, Tom's flame shield always made Hermione extremely embarrassed. The flame he summoned was actually a variant of Fiery Fire - the flame created by the flame shield, if not controlled, it will eventually turn into A fierce fire, burning all combustibles in the field of vision. This kind of fire cannot be extinguished by ordinary water. After thinking about it, Hermione found Professor Lupin and learned this spell to restrain sharp fire.

Grindelwald's fiery fire required the concerted efforts of more than a dozen wizards to put it out, but Tom's didn't have to be so hard, and Hermione could solve it alone.

I saw a golden light rising from the ground, forcibly wrapping Tom's flame, and then the blue fire and golden light dissipated together.

At this time, Padma was also kicked out by Tom and fell unconscious.

"Now we can fight fairly." Tom sped up his offensive and stunned Padma. He adjusted his wizard robe a little so that he didn't look so embarrassed, and adjusted his state at the same time.

...

"It's over," said Hermione, panting, and in front of her lay sturdy Tom bound by ropes. After Padma is knocked out, she fights Tom for a while, finally tying him up with a high chess move.
