"boom!"

Just when Harry exclaimed, a heavy muffled sound suddenly came from the direction of the witch Kern. This sudden change once again attracted everyone's attention.

It's him"!

That figure was indeed extremely familiar to Harry, Hermione and others present.

Although that pitch-black body has now become dilapidated, because until that moment, "he" was still nailed to the top of the deepest wall of the auditorium, motionless, and seemed to have lost his life.

Unexpectedly... it seems that even Kern didn't notice that "he" was actually "alive"! And at such a very critical moment, he actually backhand pulled out the stone spear that was nailed to his chest.

, dragging the remains of his body, he swooped down and stabbed Kern in the back.

It's a pity that even such a quick and sudden sneak attack failed to hurt the witch Kern at all - what everyone saw at this moment was that she blocked the attack with her backhand and resisted the attack with one hand.

The shocking sight of coming to the tip of a gun.

It can be seen that at that moment, Kern's hand had turned into the same pitch black color.

As for the stone gun in "his" hand...it was just an ordinary stone gun held by a statue in the front hall of Hogwarts. Without magic reinforcement, how could it withstand the second blow?

Or such a powerful force to hedge?

At this moment, it had turned into a pile of rubble and sputtered in all directions.

"You... are not dead?"

This was the first time that Witch Kern showed a surprised expression in front of everyone, as if she had seen something incomprehensible, and she frowned slightly.

And almost at the next moment, she seemed to think of something again, and her brows frowned even more tightly.

Then Harry and Hermione discovered that almost at the same time, the green light that had been shining in the aisle beyond the door suddenly disappeared, revealing a figure in a state of embarrassment.

"Maka!"

Although he was also very concerned about the "him" on the other side, when he saw Maka, who had just been attacked by Kern, reappeared in his field of vision, Harry was obviously more worried about the latter. Seeing this,

Subconsciously, I wanted to get closer and take a closer look at the situation.

But Maka waved her hand to stop her.

"Huh -" Maka breathed a sigh of relief when she returned to everyone's sight. After looking down at her right elbow, she looked at Kern not far away and said, "How dangerous do you think it is? It's just that.

Just a little! Just a little, and you will fall short!"

As he said this, he raised his elbow and shook it in a show-off manner towards Kern opposite him.

For a moment, not only the witch Kern, but also Harry and Hermione who were a little further away saw that Maka's right arm was covered with strange cracks at some point. And on the elbow, there were even more strange cracks.

The cracks are extremely dense, and there are even faint traces of peeling in the most serious places, revealing some sharp edges and rough sections that don't look like flesh.

There was a slight silence in the auditorium. Harry and the others had not reacted in a short period of time, but Witch Kern had already understood.

"Is it the puppet from before?" She still frowned slightly, staring at Maka's elbow and observing it carefully, and asked, "This material change... what kind of magic is it?"

"Of course it's the so-called 'magic of this era that has declined to the point of being barren' as you call it!" Maka smiled and said, "It's called 'transformation'. It's not bad, right? You know, I'm the one who inherited it from my master.

The exquisite skills of Ms. Minerva McGonagall, the top transfiguration master of the era! If I can deceive you, I won’t lose face to Professor McGonagall.”

"'Transfiguration'...?"

Kern was still looking at Maka, even ignoring the threat behind her that would strike again at any time. In other words, she was still confident that even if another sneak attack happened, she could block it as easily as before.

And in just a few seconds, Kern, who was staring closely at Maka's right arm, suddenly raised his eyebrows, seeming to have an answer.

"Fragmented rules and runes combined with unprecedented weird combinations can actually produce controllable effects?" Her expression softened and she said, "Okay! I have to admit that I was wrong before...

Under some circumstances that I took for granted, I committed the sin of 'arrogance' that I shouldn't have."

In the final analysis, Kern is always...or was a research witch who is proficient in research and loyal to research. In terms of magic research, if it turns out that he is indeed wrong, then he can tell the truth like this

It won't be that difficult for her to admit her mistakes.

only……

"Ms. Kern," Maka spread her hands and said, "At this point in time, we have to discuss magic research... I don't mind it. However, isn't it still a bit inappropriate?"

As he spoke, a pale golden figure suddenly climbed up from the ground not far away, and with a wave of his hand, he threw something violently in the direction of Harry.

That's Luna!

At the same time, the girl's voice also sounded in Harry's mind.

"Original plan!"

Buzz——

Almost at the same time, a wave of rapidly surging magic energy surged from Kern's body. As soon as Kern was about to do something, Maka stepped in between Harry and her.

When Kern saw this, his movements suddenly stagnated, and the fluctuations of magic power also slowed down. At this time, the black incomplete figure that had been motionless since just now finally started to move, and it was clear that

A sudden punch hit Kern in the back of the head.

If Harry had just come closer, there would definitely be flaws in this series of actions. Either Luna's position was too far away from him, or it would be difficult for Maka to cover him easily. But now, everything seems to be going smoothly.

Not far behind Maka, Harry had successfully received what Luna had thrown at him - it was the fake Elder Wand that he had thrown away not long ago! Unexpectedly, the wand was rolling

After reaching the side, it happened to roll to Luna's side again, and now it went around in a circle and returned to his hand again.

"Original plan?"

Luna's words were short and urgent in his mind, and coupled with the urgent situation in front of him, he could no longer think about it. With only a brief reaction, he immediately took out Hermione from his pocket and handed it to him in advance.

The necklace. The next moment, he reached for his wand and was about to press the tip of the wand towards the scarlet pendant.

It's called the "touch method", right? I remember Hermione said that before...
