Hogwarts Homecoming

Chapter 1061: Battle

In the deep and narrow open space of the Forbidden Forest, the most tense and fierce confrontation since the start of the game began.

Luna and Astoria, a third-year girl from Ravenclaw and a second-year girl from Slytherin, were performing a wonderful offensive battle for the audience.

And Cedric's one-on-two sniping also made the audience applaud!

As for Neville

When the trap took effect, Neville expected what would happen next.

Three against five!

In the case that the duel ability of the two parties did not form a huge gap, it was impossible for them to solve the battle with overwhelming force, and it was even difficult to form a long-term tug-of-war.

Based on the positions of the five Slytherins when the duel started, Neville originally hoped that Luna and Cedric would overwhelm Astoria in the first wave of attacks, so that the difference in the number of people of only one person would not be insurmountable.

But unexpectedly, the little girl from Slytherin actually withstood the most dangerous first wave of attacks, which immediately put them in a very unfavorable situation.

If Cedric hadn't performed equally well, they would have surrendered right now.

In this forest with complex terrain and unfamiliarity, it was impossible to escape, and they could only fight to the end!

The current tug of war could not last too long. Although Cedric briefly resisted Draco and Pansy, he could not hold on for two minutes.

Their only chance of winning was whether Luna could defeat Astoria directly, or whether he could knock down one of Blaise or Nott.

All kinds of thoughts flashed through Neville's mind, and the flickering light in his eyes became firm. Neville held up his sword, which was very unnatural for wizards, and tightened his reflexes, trying his best to approach Blaise and Nott!

With his strength, he could not do better than Cedric now if he kept a safe distance and fought against the two Slytherins. The possibility of defeating the two depended on whether he could close the distance.

With a ‘Z’-shaped move, Neville successfully crossed the 30-foot safety line. In the stormy spelllight, his sight was firmly locked on Blaise and Nott.

“You want to defeat both of us alone, Longbottom, this is wishful thinking!”

Blaise’s eyes were sharp, and he chopped down his wand to release a blazing magic fire, which instantly dried the moisture on the ground. The ignited fallen leaves formed a wall of fire, cutting off Neville’s way forward!

He tilted his head to avoid the evil curse shot by Nott, who looked sinister. Neville swept his silver sword, and a white cold air sprayed from the tip of the sword. Blaise’s magic was hit by the cold air and immediately became sluggish.

“How do you know if you don’t try it?”

Neville flew over the low fire line, his expression unmoved, and the moment he landed, he began to run quickly along the ‘S’ curve again.

As the elites of this year’s Slytherin, Blaise and Nott would not fail to see Neville’s intentions.

After getting close, it goes without saying that the wand with greatly reduced free space and the sword that can cast spells are more threatening.

When Neville crossed the line of fire, Blaise and Nott looked at each other quickly.

They now have two choices. One is to split the troops in two directions. The advantage of this choice is that Longbottom deliberately makes one lose the other, but the disadvantage is that once Longbottom completes the close combat with someone, the other person will definitely be afraid to attack for fear of accidental injury.

The second choice is that the two of them move in one direction at the same time. This can better coordinate the attack to force Longbottom back, but if Longbottom really approaches, they may lose their combat effectiveness with a sword.

There is not much time to hesitate.

Between the exchange of eyes, Blaise and Nott made up their minds. The two of them attacked alternately, fighting and retreating, and went deeper into the woods. Then, along the edge of the strip of open space, they began to fly a "kite" against Neville!

It is completely different to advance in the open space and in the woods.

The complex terrain and endless attacks slowed down Neville's speed. He had to pay more attention to dodging and preventing himself from stepping into the air.

"Cunning Slytherin!"

Neville hated in his heart. He had the determination to move forward, but he underestimated the cunning of Blaise and Nott!

In less than two minutes after the two sides fought, the balance of victory had already begun to tilt towards Slytherin.

Changes must be made as soon as possible!

After the training in physical education class, Neville's thin face flashed with determination.

The attack rhythm of Blaise and Nott was not fierce.

Obviously, the two did not intend to defeat him as soon as possible. They intended to drag him down.

In the duel between Luna and Astoria, Luna maintained an offensive posture in general. Although she could not defeat Astoria in a short time, at least she would not lose.

The reason why Blaise and Nott were confident was that they also saw that Cedric could not hold out for too long under the torrential attacks of Draco and Pansy.

Draco.

At this critical moment when a mistake would lead to a complete loss, Neville could not help but recall the past.

There is no doubt that Draco Malfoy was the student that his former cowardly self feared the most since he entered Hogwarts.

He had been bullied and ridiculed by Draco, Crabbe and Goyle countless times. He had curled up in bed and felt sad because of their teasing for countless nights!

Glancing at Draco's furious face, Neville raised his sword and swung it sideways, sweeping away two spells that were attacking him, and took a deep breath.

Now, it's time to say goodbye to those unbearable pasts!

Having made up his mind, Neville's eyes suddenly became sharp. He shook his body suddenly for a moment, and at the same time, the silver sword in his hand stabbed straight.

This extremely misleading action made Blaise and Nott think that Longbottom was going to "use a big move", and they hurriedly went behind the tree.

On the cold sword body, silver light flowed and then broke away from the tip of the sword, crashing into the field like a meteor!

This attack caught the moment when Blaise and Nott retreated behind the tree and their vision was blocked, while Draco and Pansy, who were concentrating on cooking Cedric, did not catch this attack in the clusters of flashing fire.

There was only one person who immediately noticed Neville's move, and that was Luna!

As the only one among all the physical education students who was personally invited by Amosta to enter, Luna had a talent that others could not understand.

Her keen perception of the changes in magic power far exceeds that of ordinary people!

After realizing that Neville came to help, she immediately swung her wand, and the colorful notes surrounding Astoria gathered together to form a dense cloud under her call, blocking Astoria's sight.

The sudden gathering of notes made Astoria look stern, and before she could mobilize her birds to fight back, a shrill scream came to her ears.

In the almost static time, the colorful note wall that blocked her sight slowly rotated to reveal a void, and a group of silver meteors with tail flames passed through the void of the notes at a discordant speed, and in just a moment, it appeared in front of her!

Astoria's face changed, and the idea of ​​withdrawing and dodging flashed in her mind and was abandoned!

Too late!

Astoria realized this immediately.

This critical and fatal moment did not shake her heart, and only calmness filled her pure blue eyes!

In the few milliseconds that were eternal yet fleeting, Astoria's wrist trembled rapidly, and the birds scattered along the silver light's path rushed towards the silver meteor one after another, and then disappeared.

Longbottom couldn't possibly want to kill him.

After failing to block it, Astoria realized that this ball of silver light was unusual, and the first thought that flashed through his mind was that he just wanted to make himself lose his fighting power, so--

Astoria suddenly jumped up from the ground, curled up as much as possible and used both arms to protect her face!

The silver light broke through Astoria's last defensive magic with a devastating force, and smashed down in Draco's shocked and angry eyes!
