Hector straightened his clothes and stood face to face with Professor Flitwick.
"I always believe that practice makes perfect," Professor Flitwick drew his wand.
"You have learned almost everything in the textbook. Now I want to teach you something different."
"Pull out your wand. The smile on Flitwick's face disappeared. The gentle old man was gone. The Professor Flitwick in front of him was like a sword drawn from its sheath, exuding a sharp aura all over his body.
"We are going to have a formal duel."
Flitwick's tone was very calm, but the flame of fighting in Hector's heart was ignited at once. Since entering the wizarding world, he has been constantly learning, isn't it just to be able to protect himself when facing danger, or even to change the original plot?
Although it is indeed good and safe to stay hidden, which boy doesn't want to be a hero? It's not easy to come to the wizarding world, Hector doesn't want to live this life in such a dull way, and he doesn't want to watch his friends around him leave him one by one like in the original book.
Fred, Dumbledore, and later Sirius, Lupin and Mad-Eye Moody, they are brothers , elders, teachers, comrades, Hector could not know their fates and turn a blind eye to them.
Hector is very realistic, but he is also idealistic. He used to hesitate between the two and could not make a decision. That’s why the Sorting Hat said when sorting him that there was something flashing in Hector’s mind. But as the days of getting along get longer and longer, Hector’s heart becomes more and more determined, and the desire to make changes becomes stronger and stronger.
But these things cannot be solved in a short time. Now is a good opportunity to test Hector’s learning results.
Hector took out his wand and held it tightly in his palm.
"First, let's bow to each other," said Flitwick, bowing gracefully to Hector.
"Just like this."
Hector held his wand upright in front of him and respectfully saluted Flitwick.
Both of them had firm eyes, and Hector's hand holding the wand was already sweating.
Flitwick took the lead, and a red light shot out from the tip of his wand. Hector reacted quickly and quickly put on a layer of armor to protect himself.
The red light easily penetrated Hector's Shield Charm without any intention of stopping.
This was not the power of a normal Disarmament Charm, and Hector's heart tightened. The red light was too fast, and Hector had no time to release the second Shield Charm before he was hit by the red light.
Hector felt the wand in his hand vibrate violently, which made it break free from Hector's control and fly into Flitwick's hand. The power of the red light was more than that, and Hector's body flew backwards uncontrollably and fell heavily to the ground.
"First lesson, duels are never turn-based games."Flitwick put down his wand. He did not go forward to help Hector up, but let him stand up by himself.
"There is no rule that you can only use one spell at a time, so don't be careless."
Hector rubbed his sore butt, nodded, and took the wand Flitwick handed him.
"Are you ready?" Flitwick didn't give Hector much time to breathe. He raised his wand again.
"Let's continue."
Hector took a deep breath and looked at Flitwick with a more determined look.
Flitwick still took the initiative and started with the Disarming Spell. Hector naturally would not make the same mistake again. He cast three or four Strengthening Armor Spells in a row.
This time the red light was blocked. Hector was about to fight back, but Flitwick's spells with no cooling time were cast on Hector one after another, which made Hector exhausted and unable to retaliate. At the beginning, it was okay. The speed of Hector's release of the Armor Spell could keep up with Flitwick's progress. But after a while, Flitwick started to use combos, and each time he used at least one or two disarming spells, which forced Hector to speed up the speed of shielding himself.
Flitwick cast spells faster and faster, and two combos became three combos. In the end, it was almost like Hou Yi bought an electric knife, with sparks and lightning all the way, suppressing Hector who was frantically shielding.
Soon, Hector had no choice but to hand over his wand obediently. He sat on the ground, panting, and looked at Flitwick who didn't feel tired at all, and felt a strong sense of powerlessness.
"You have to learn to take the initiative, Hector. You can't defend all the time. Only by attacking and disrupting the opponent's rhythm can you force your opponent to make mistakes and finally defeat him."
Flitwick was very patient. He gave Hector a little more rest time this time, but it was limited.
The third time started soon.
This time, nothing Hector said would let Flitwick take the initiative. Defense and counterattack have proved to be unrealistic. Hector took the initiative to cast a disarming spell, hoping to put Flitwick into a passive defensive situation.
The idea is full, but the reality is very skinny.
Flitwick showed agility that was completely different from his age. He turned around to avoid Hector's charged disarming spell and immediately began to fight back.
Hector was stunned. His mind was full of offensive plans just now. He was extremely confident in the strength of his spells. He didn't expect that he would be so easily defeated when he had the initiative. Flitwick counterattacked.
He subconsciously put a layer of shield on himself, which was very wise, but it also made him completely lose the ability to fight back.
Then it was the familiar Hou Yi fighting Sun Shangxiang, and Hector was completely unable to raise his head.
Hector also wanted to move like Hou Yi, but Flitwick's spell seemed to be able to turn, and always attacked Hector very accurately the moment Hector stopped.
Filius Hou Yi Flitwick was confirmed.
Hector was quickly disarmed and fell to the ground again.
This time, before Flitwick could speak, Hector stood up directly, took the wand from Flitwick for the third time, took a few deep breaths, and stood opposite Flitwick again.
"Come on, Professor."
Flitwick looked at Hector with great satisfaction and took a serious attitude.
""Fall to the ground!" Hector took the lead in launching the attack. He shouted a spell, but this time, he cleverly hid a rather concealed disarming spell under the stun spell.
Flitwick was just like that. He quickly dodged. It was still a bit strenuous for him to dodge two spells in a row, which prevented Flitwick from launching a counterattack in the first time. Hector keenly discovered Flitwick's flaw. He quickly launched another attack. Flitwick had no time to dodge this time and could only put on a shield.
Things changed, and this time it was Hector's turn to do a combo.
Facing Flitwick's big shield, Hector used all his strength to... He tried every powerful spell he could think of. He was so high-spirited at the moment that he didn't notice that the ground beneath his feet was changing.
When Hector came to his senses, two long vines stretched out from the floor beneath his feet. They had a tacit understanding, one of them bound Hector's calves, and the other ran towards Hector's staff hand.
Hector could only devote his energy to dealing with these two restless vines, which allowed Flitwick to regain the initiative.
The offense and defense changed again.
When Hector finally used two freezing spells to get rid of the harassment of the two vines, Flitwick's petrification spell was also very timely..
Hector didn't want to admit it, but the fact was that he was beaten by Flitwick again and ran away. When Flitwick not only used the Disarming Spell, but began to pursue the coordination between multiple spells, Hector had no choice but to be beaten.
The Freezing Spell blocked his movement, the Bird Spell interfered with his vision, and the Silence Spell concealed his footsteps. Hector couldn't even see Flitwick's figure and could only put up his big shield.
Then he passively took the beating.
It hurts, it hurts too much.
After being locked to the ground by the Petrification Spell, Hector saw Flitwick's figure.
My goodness, Hector realized that Flitwick had a Wand, played a dual-wand style, and fought like Kratos, the god of war, not at all like he should be at his age.
No wonder he could harass from behind with a big shield, making Hector miserable.
Then, Hector was knocked down again and again, and stood up again and again. Although he made some inconspicuous progress every time, no matter how he adjusted the tactics, no matter how much advantage he had at a certain stage, Flitwick could always make a godly move, instantly turning the situation around, and then quickly entering the same plot template as before.
Knocked down, stood up.
Knocked down again, stood up again.���Come.
Hector protested strongly, and finally made Flitwick give up his rogue style of fighting with two staffs, but Hector felt that Flitwick was a little heavier.
Without the two staffs, he lost faster, and Hector really wanted to cry.
There was no theoretical class for the whole night, just continuous duels, or in other words, Hector was beaten continuously, and the way he was beaten was different every time.
Hector did learn a lot. At the beginning, it took too long to release the Iron Armor Curse, so once he used the Iron Armor Curse, he lost any chance to fight back and could only passively take the beating. As the number of times Hector was beaten increased, he found that it was not necessary to cast the spell according to the standard spell casting method written in the book, at least Flitwick was not like that.
Hector realized it when he saw with his own eyes that Flitwick's shield was faster than his normal attack speed.
It was like opening the door to a new world, and Hector was exploring it little by little. He found that the talent given by the system could only allow him to learn this spell quickly, while Flitwick taught him how to use this spell in actual combat.
In addition, Hector also clearly realized that even very basic spells could play a very powerful role.
This was not difficult to find out.
After all, after giving up the double-staff flow, Flitwick began to adopt a new strategy.
You know the softening spell, right? First grade content.
You know the freezing spell, right? Second grade content.
Flitwick first used the softening spell to soften the floor that Hector's left foot was stepping on into pudding, which made Hector stagger and involuntarily take a step forward.
At this moment, the freezing spell nailed Hector, who was still in the air and unable to dodge, to the spot.
Then Flitwick also cautiously cast a disarming spell on Hector who had lost his ability to move.
Shortly after being knocked down, Hector and Flitwick had a wave of spell strength competition.
As a result, Hector was very pessimistic to find that the strength of his spells was not at the same level as Flitwick's.
Take the Freezing Spell for example.
Flitwick's Freezing Spell is really powerful, covers a wide area, and has a precise attack range.
It has a touch of the charm of Wang Zhaojun in a certain game.
As for Hector, he is also like Wang Zhaojun, but he looks like Wang Zhaojun's ice maker, which is used to make some cool summer drinks.
The ice popsicles are good, but if you want to achieve the hard control of Flitwick, you are still far away.
In terms of the power of spells, Hector is really crushed by Flitwick, and there is no suspense.
Of course, there is an exception, that is Hector's Glowing Spell.
Once Hector was really beaten, Flitwick's offensive was too fast, and Hector's spells sounded a bit like rap. He thought that this was not a solution. After a psychological struggle, Hector prepared to give Flitwick a trick to let him taste the saltiness of this signature flash bomb mixed with anger.
"Fluorescent flashes!"Hector cast a very standard Luminescent Charm under Flitwick's suppression. Flitwick was stunned at first. In his cognition, the Luminescent Charm could not be used in a duel anyway. After all, there was no way to fire it, and it had no other functions. It seemed to have no effect except for lighting. Wait
, light.
Hector covered his eyes skillfully, and Flitwick witnessed with his own eyes that a huge ball of light first formed at the tip of Hector's wand, like the sun; the ball of light continued to expand itself, and the light it emitted became more and more dazzling, until the ball of light suddenly exploded.
In an instant All of the windows in the office exploded under the impact of the light beam. At this moment, all the light beams were no longer restrained. They quickly poured out of the windows one after another and rushed towards the dark sky. The light quickly occupied the sky and the earth. Almost every corner of Hogwarts could see the unique light in the silent night.
Flitwick reacted quickly. He covered his eyes and lay on the ground. Hector also found something different. When he used the Light Charm in an irregular way, the Light Charm suddenly became slightly controllable. He didn't stop until his magic power was drained out. The current Glowing Charm would still leave some for Hector.
Hector stopped the Glowing Charm, and the wand in his hand was a little hot.
He opened his eyes, and the light had faded. The night dominated by black soon enveloped the entire sky again, completely covering up the instant light without a trace.
Although Flitwick looked a little embarrassed, he still cast a Disarming Charm in time, and Hector lost the duel again.
But after that, Flitwick personally admitted that his Glowing Charm was no match for Hector's , which made Hector, who had suffered a great blow today, feel somewhat relieved.
Hector slumped on the ground, breathing heavily. Professor Flitwick had no intention of continuing. He took out the chocolate again, which was still intact except for the part that was broken off. Professor Flitwick broke off a large piece and handed it to Hector, then broke off a small piece and stuffed it into his own mouth.
Hector felt a warm current in his body spreading from his stomach to the outside. This heat flowed through the blood to every corner of his body, which made him feel extremely comfortable, and his spirits improved a lot.
"Some joy potion was added to the chocolate, and Sifrith's potion is still as good as ever." Flitwick explained, and the two of them sat down side by side. The rather messy classroom was particularly quiet at this moment.
""Hector, your talent is truly amazing. I have never seen a young wizard who could realize his shortcomings so quickly from a duel and take the initiative to correct them." Flitwick said with emotion.
"More importantly, you can get such a significant improvement so quickly, which is something I never expected." Flitwick wanted to give Hector another piece of chocolate, but Hector waved his hand and he stuffed the piece he broke off into his mouth.
"Of course, you still have a lot of room for improvement. I think you can realize that always following the book is indeed the most accurate and safest way, but it is definitely not the best way."
"Hector, you have a lot of knowledge beyond your age, but you don't know how to use it now."
Flitwick was very serious, his eyes revealed an unprecedented seriousness, and he said to Hector,
"What I want to teach you is how to use it"
""Extraordinary wisdom is the greatest wealth of mankind," said Flitwick,"but extraordinary wisdom is also the most terrible poison. It will make you fall into the quagmire of arrogance, and arrogance will eventually destroy you."
"You have unparalleled talent, but I hope that every time you feel satisfied and feel that you are invincible, and because of your talent, you are destined to have such a feeling. I hope you will remember this day."
Flitwick's voice was not loud, but you could hear that he was extremely serious.
"You have to know that a true master always has the heart of an apprentice."
