v3 Chapter 8: Silver Spear Test

oom!

The wooden door was closed behind him, and the four stood at the entrance of a long narrow passage, surrounded by gray stone walls. In the dim light, the torches on the stone walls crackled with sparks, reflecting the gloomy passage.

The passage was very quiet, but it was filled with a strange atmosphere.

Daphne was the most courageous and walked ahead; Meredith followed closely, and Astoria fell behind the two. Xie Lin is the strongest. He is at the end and can take care of everyone while being in charge of the queen.

As I walked, I could feel more and more humid in the air, and then a misty fog appeared in my sight.

Daphne whispered: "Fluorescence flashes!" A milky white halo was released from the end of the magic wand. The brightness of the fluorescence was as bright as moonlight and not dazzling. It was much brighter than ordinary fluorescent spells. Even so, the visibility could not exceed three feet. .

When Meredith was about to cast the flame curse, Schelling stopped him, "May, it is very unwise to cast flames rashly when facing unknown situations. Think about it, in case there is a pile of gunpowder in front of you. What? Wouldn't that blow us all up?"

Daphne's inspiration flashed, and she exclaimed: "Use the wind! The wind can disperse the fog!" Then she showed a distressed expression, "But, I haven't learned the wind curse... If the fog disperses, I guess my magic power is not enough..."

Xie Lin shook his head, "I know how to curse the wind, but there is actually an easier way to deal with this situation-a flock of birds!" Xie Lin's wand exploded with a soft sound, and a small sparrow turned out. , Twittering, flapping his wings cheerfully.

"Rapidly getting bigger!" The little sparrow suddenly became bigger than the golden eagle. Its wings spread out for 10 feet. It flew into the mist, and its flapping wings curled up a stream of air, although it only dissipated a small area. The fog, but also reveals the road ahead.

The three girls were so shocked that they couldn't speak, can the Asuka Magic spell be used like this?

Daphne was about to step forward, but she was stopped by Schelling, "Don't worry, although the mist is clear, how do you know that there is nothing else in the mist?"

This time, the three girls showed a confused expression. What does Xie Lin mean? The road ahead is revealed, and there is nothing in the line of sight?

Meredith was the fastest to react. She pointed her wand to the front and said loudly: "The original form is now! (

Then came Astoria’s exclamation, "What is this?"

In front of    stood a tall, silvery-white animal, resembling a skinny bear, standing on its feet, extending its abnormally long arms towards them.

Meredith said in an uncertain tone: "This is Hidebehind?"

Schelling nodded, "Yes, the concealed monster is the product of the hybrid between the invisible beast (Demiguise) and the ghoul (Ghoul). Not only can it be invisible like the invisible beast, but it can also distort its body shape and is very good at hiding and sneaking. This guy likes to hunt humanoid creatures, including us wizards. Everyone must deal with it carefully."

(Note: The hidden monster is one of the six animals added in the 2017 version of "Fantastic Animals Are There", the other five are bird-shaped man-eaters, cats and leopards, horned animals, long-horned water snakes, and thunderbirds)

Xie Lin was a little surprised. It was only medium difficulty. A four-star concealed monster appeared, and a fog was created for it to hide his figure. If he didn't follow up, I was afraid that something would happen just now. Can only say, is it really a silver spear?

The occult monster is very flexible, and the spells released by Daphne and Meredith have been evaded one by one. When it is really unable to dodge, it can also twist its body, similar to the common bone shrinking yoga in India. , Deftly avoided the attack.

Daphne released a sticky curse, spreading a layer of sticky paste on the terrain around the Occult Monster. The occult monster accidentally stepped on the paste, and his figure stopped. Meredith seized the moment and performed a transformation technique on the paste that was stuck to it. Four arms suddenly stretched out of the paste to hold the occult monster's limbs tightly. .

"It's now!" Meredith and Daphne shouted in unison.

Astoria raised the magic wand in his hand and shouted loudly: "Faint!" The magic wand shot out a ray of light, hitting the occult monster's head accurately, knocking it stunned.

"Good job!" Xie Lin praised heartily. The two girls cooperated tacitly to create a perfect attack opportunity for Astoria, and Astoria's spellcasting method, whether in accuracy or speed All of them are excellent.

Moving on again, they came to a round room with two exits in front, and there was a statue of a dragon in the center of the room.

In the wizarding world, Dragon is just a general term. Under this general term, there are actually various sub-dragon branches. In the previous life, Schelling knew two kinds-killed by the madman Kadogan knight in Gryffindor. Wyvern, and Firedrake in Fantastic Beasts movies.

What appeared in this room was the sub-dragon creature-Amphiptere that Xie Lin learned from ancient books in this life.

Feathered Snake and Birdsnake () are very similar in appearance, and are one of the most beautiful creatures in this magical world: it has a blue snake-like body and a pair of rainbow-colored wings.

The body of this feather snake statue is almost 15 feet long. Its eyes were embedded with two bright red rubies, as if watching a few people sparkle at the moment.

"What should I do now?" Daphne frowned, "Shall we pass it? Will it come alive?"

"Probably not," Schelling is also not sure. To be honest, if he wants to pass a feathered snake in medium difficulty, then he can't imagine the level of **** difficulty. "I think it is likely that we need to find the feathered snake statue. Only the secrets in the body can move forward, otherwise it will be attacked."

"It makes sense, it's just a moderately difficult test. There is no reason why it is so difficult. Let me try it—" Meredith raised his wand, "Hurry up! (Aparecium

"Anxiously appearing" and "original shape appearing" are not the same spell. The original form is used to find invisible or deformed objects in disguise, and the quick form is used to expose hidden handwriting. Other similar spells include "humanoid manifestation" to find invisible people and "trace manifestation" to find traces of magic that have just disappeared.

Sure enough, the feathered serpent statue revealed an orange halo, and a Gurunis talisman slowly emerged on its wings. Schelling recognized that it was Eihwaz, meaning yew tree, and represented in the wizarding world. The meanings of "defense" and "guard", the feathered snake corresponds to the three-headed dog in the legend of the wizarding world, guarding the gates of heaven and **** respectively. Of course, there is no heaven and **** in this magical world, so heaven and **** generally represent two meanings of luck and disaster.

After Schelling explained the meaning of Eihwaz, Astoria tilted his head and said, "Could it be that we need to use the guidance of this ancient magic talisman to find the correct exit? One of the two exits will have Danger, the other is safe to the next level?"

Is it borrowed Guruuni magic talisman to cast spells?

Schelling also studied how to use Gurunean to cast spells-he had a lot of thoughts in his mind after he saw it with his own eyes on the fifth floor of Hogwarts secret road. In Ravenclaw’s heritage, there are also some records about this.

However, the Gurunis text is broad and profound, and there are Germanic, Nordic, Celtic and other systems in the Muggle world alone. In the wizarding world, as far as Schelling knows, there are at least twenty different systems, and the error correction between each system is complicated. So up to now, his research on using Gurunis text to cast spells has not made much progress.

Xie Lin didn't want to give up this test. When things came, he had to try.

He took out the Crown of Wisdom from his arms and put it on, energizing the eye of magic with all his strength. For a while, both the Crown of Wisdom and the Supreme Wizard's robe bloomed with faint colorful rays of light.

Schelling used his magic wand to draw a complete Eihwaz magic talisman stroke by stroke in mid-air. Suddenly, there was a warmth from the night's magic wand in his hand. At this moment, the magic wand vibrated autonomously as if it had a life. Thanks Lin's pupils suddenly became like a pool of azure blue water, with waves on it.

The feather snake statue seemed to come to life, twisting his body stiffly, and let out a long chirping sound, like a phoenix or a sea snake.

The Guruni magic talisman that appeared on it suddenly turned into a fire, and it shot into the one on the left of the two exits.

"Go!" Before Xie Lin could say anything, a few people rushed to the exit on the left as fast as possible!

Daphne entered first, then Meredith, then Astoria, and finally Schelling's turn. Just when Xie Lin stepped into the exit, the feathered snake statue was completely resurrected. It pecked at Xie Lin fiercely, but hit a transparent barrier at the junction of the exit. Under the impact, the barrier bloomed dazzlingly. The blue light emitted a circle of aperture ripples centered on the impact point.

After knowing that the feather snake statue could not enter the exit, several people began to gasp in fear.

"Xie Lin, you just successfully cast a spell in Gurunian?" Meredith couldn't help but ask. The Gurunian magic has been lost for centuries, if it is really reproduced in Xie Lin. , What it means, everyone present is very clear.

Xie Lin shrugged and said: "Probably so! But at most it is just a prototype of a spellcasting method, and it needs more perfection..."

"It's amazing!" Daphne exclaimed, "Even so, it is a terrible achievement. It is said that ancient sorcerers can cast spells in ancient runes, ancient Egyptian sorcerers can separate the Red Sea, and Babylonian sorcerers built floating in The sky city in the sky..."

Xie Lin shook his head, "To tell you the truth, there may not be many people who understand the Gurunis language, but certainly not less, but why the Gurunis magic is still lost?"

Meredith hesitated and said: "Is it necessary to meet certain conditions first..." She thought of the disguise that Schelling's pupils had shown before, "For example, it stimulated the special abilities hidden in the bloodline, like a snake The language teacher, the prophet, and Yirong Magus..."

"Yes," Schelling said seriously, "I don't know for sure, but I think so too."

Several people fell into silence, each with a different mind, thinking about various possibilities.

There was no interest in talking, and a few people went on quietly. This time they encountered a huge number of ghouls, at least thirty at a glance.

Newt Scamander's "Where are the Fantastic Beasts" is just an enlightenment textbook suitable for 3rd grade little wizards. The content in it is still at the level of enlightenment, and many unpopular creatures are not included in it. The organisms included are only records of common examples, and cannot cover all types of the species. For example, although the book records sea snakes, it does not record the different species of sea snake Selma.

(Note: Selma comes from the Daily Prophet, and is the mascot of the Norwegian team, a very fierce alien sea snake that likes to eat human flesh)

Although this book has records about ghouls and lists it as a two-star dangerous animal, this does not mean that you can take it lightly when you see ghouls. In Lockhart's "Swim with the Ghoul", a very dangerous and highly aggressive alien species of ghoul-Chameleon Ghoul (Chameleon Ghoul) is recorded.

Unlike the gradually degraded ghouls, the color-changing ghouls have restored the nature of their ancestor Orge, have a desire for the flesh of living people, and at the same time have restored the cunning nature of the cannibals, they will deform and disguise. It looks like a daily necessities to avoid being discovered. Then suddenly an attack was launched when someone approached.

Although there are a large number of color-changing ghouls in front of him, they are revealing their real bodies at this moment, so Xie Lin has nothing to worry about, so he let the three girls deal with it.

"Flame is raging!" After these three semesters of hard practice, Daphne's magic power and spellcasting skills are stronger than those of the same class. She released a large orange-red flame, like a wall of fire standing in front of them, emitting With astonishing heat.

Meredith cast a transformation technique, and more than 30 flame arms stretched out from the middle of the fire wall, rushing to the ghouls, and grabbing them.

Astoria took out a few bottles of blue flame potions, and threw them one by one at the dead ends and leaks that the flame had not burned, leaving the ghouls nowhere to escape. If there are ghouls trying to forcefully rush through the flames, Astoria will delay their actions with an obstacle curse. As long as they can be dragged for a while, the ghouls will be swallowed up by the flames and there is nothing left.

After only a while, more than 30 color-changing ghouls were wiped out.

This time, Schelling was very satisfied with their performance. The three of them did not fight on their own, blindly casting spells on the enemy, but cooperated with each other to compress the opponent’s moving space with flames, and then one was responsible for precise attacks, and the other Responsible for making up for dead spots and flaws. The wisdom of the color-changing ghouls is not low, but even with their strain and speed, they cannot break through such a tactical attack.

Don't look at how easy it is for them to eliminate ghouls, it is because the tactics are well arranged and there is no error in execution. It is not fun if you get close by a ghoul. The teeth, nails, and blood of a ghoul are highly poisonous, and once they are stained, they are very difficult to treat. Lockhart's "Swim with Ghoul" has an example of extracting chronic venom from the body of a ghoul.
