Chapter 341 339 Duel

Chapter 341 339. Duel

Dean Greengrass is really nice to mixed-blood students.

She seemed to have no prejudice against Cedric's bloodline and sat down in front of his bed.

In the past, seeing her behavior, Cedric would only feel relieved that there was such a professor in Hogwarts, but now, he was really nervous.

"No, no, professor, I don't have any big problems. I just need to rest for a morning and I can go back to class in the afternoon."

If he knew that Greengrass would come to see him, Cedric would not ask his roommate to help him take leave even if he was tired.

But Greengrass didn't seem to want to leave immediately. She chatted with Cedric about their daily studies and life for a while until she stared at the hair of the boy lying on the bed.

"Why is there a piece of grass in your hair, kid."

The mixed-blood dean reached out and took the grass off Cedric's head, asking in confusion.

Cedric's two hands hidden in the quilt were clenched into fists in an instant, but the expression on his face still insisted on not changing. Instead, he answered calmly.

"I was so tired after returning from the court yesterday that I went to bed without taking a shower. My hair may not be clean."

Greengrass did not seem to doubt his answer. She threw the grass into the trash can, patted Cedric's head, and said as she stood up.

"This is not a good hygiene habit. Don't forget to take a shower when you get up. If you need to rest in the afternoon, I can give you another half-day leave."

Seeing that she was about to leave, Cedric waved his hand and recovered.

"No, professor, my condition is not that bad yet. I will go to class normally in the afternoon."

Hearing him say this, Greengrass had no intention of staying in the dormitory any longer. She turned and left, leaving Cedric alone.

Cedric looked at the dormitory door that was closed again and lay back on the bed.

He first stared at the ceiling for a while, then carefully lifted the quilt. The light from the window shone in, and he could clearly see that the robe he was wearing was missing a corner.

"Swedish short-nosed dragon, there are about twenty golden snitches around. Next one, Hoss, hurry up, I hope we can complete our morning goal before lunch."

Staring at the fire dragon lying on the grass not far away and sleeping with his eyes closed, Jon made a note on a piece of parchment he had conjured, and then he got on Hoss's back again, calling him to find the next fire dragon's station in the forbidden forest.

No matter how big the forbidden forest is, it is not a troublesome thing to search the entire forest with Hoss, and this donkey is very familiar with the environment of the entire forbidden forest, and can clearly find out where a group of uninvited guests have come recently.

So they spent half a morning marking the coordinates of these dragons in the Forbidden Forest. In addition to planning to count in an orderly manner how many dragons the referee team of the Triwizard Tournament had released into the Forbidden Forest, Jon also wanted to take this opportunity to find Emil.

Jon always felt that he entered the Forbidden Forest not just to complete the competition. If Voldemort really wanted to rely on winning the competition to achieve his ultimate goal, then this person would be even more extraordinary.

He had already shown his brutal side at the dinner for the selection of warriors, but Voldemort was still confident that Emil and Draco would participate in the competition. He must have his reasons.

Jon did not believe that the purpose of this man holding this competition was just to allow Dumbledore to recapture France and Hogwarts Castle with minimal casualties.

He must have ulterior motives, and this intention was most likely achieved during the competition.

Hoss led Jon through the Forbidden Forest like the wind, and soon they approached the vicinity of the next dragon.

However, before they could see the true appearance of the fire dragon, a roar pierced the sky of the Forbidden Forest!

"Roar!"

Jon quickly hugged Hoss's horse neck and signaled it to stop. Hoss understood and took Jon to stop behind a tall tree.

After the scene around him that was constantly retreating became clear, Jon also saw the huge monster that had already soared into the sky.

It was a fire dragon with a bright green appearance. If it lay on the grass in the Forbidden Forest, the color of its body should be perfectly integrated with those green plants, making it difficult for people to find its existence.

The Welsh Green Dragon, a native fire dragon species in Great Britain, is considered to be a kind of fire dragon with a better temper. It usually likes to eat sheep, and its daily actions are basically to avoid people.

And it is so angry that it is obvious that someone has provoked it.

Sure enough, it flapped its wings and rushed to the sky above the Forbidden Forest, and then the dragon head opened its bloody mouth to the bottom!

"Boom!"

The high temperature instantly enveloped the entire area within 50 meters!

Golden flames gushed out of its mouth, and then began to sweep across the entire ground, igniting trees and grass, causing countless animals living around to flee.

This high temperature also affected Hoss, who was also a magical animal, and would instinctively fear when encountering an angry fire dragon.

Jon did not embarrass it at this time, but got off it and let it go to the outside for a while. He squinted his eyes and stared at the figure jumping up and down in the sea of ​​​​fire, avoiding the dragon's breath.

emir.

After searching for the fire dragon in the Forbidden Forest all morning, Jon finally met him here.

He seemed to be prepared to anger the Welsh green dragon, or it could be said that he was deliberately angering it.

Without a broomstick, it is very difficult to catch as many golden snitches as possible around the fire dragon. The golden snitch is very fast and can fly. Even with a magic wand, it is basically impossible. Let the spell hit them, not to mention there is a fire dragon nearby to interfere.

So, Emil found a very clever way. Instead of using the fire dragon as an obstacle, he let the big guy help him attack the golden snitches.

The referee team specially set up to restrict these golden snitches around the fire dragon. When the Welsh green dragon was angered and sprayed dragon breath at Emil, the extremely wide-covering flames also covered most of the surrounding golden snitches. included.

These golden snitches are all products of alchemy and cannot withstand the high temperature of the dragon's breath. Basically, as soon as they are roasted by the flames, the wings that were originally like hummingbirds can no longer flap, and they soon fall to the ground. on the ground.

Emil took this opportunity to avoid the attack of the Welsh green dragon while collecting the golden snitches that fell on the ground. Just the moment Jon discovered him, he had already gained a lot.

This Beauxbatons student does have brains and courage. He can get the Golden Snitch conveniently, but he also has to take extremely high risks.

No matter what kind of fire dragon they are, they are not that easy to deal with, especially when they still have air superiority. The wizard's counterattack methods are very limited. Looking at the current state of this Welsh green dragon, Emil should have just been The sneak attack used an eye curse, which made it so violent.

After using the fastest speed to pick up all the golden snitches burned by the dragon's breath on the ground, he rolled to avoid another dragon's breath, and then began to flee the scene.

The fire dragons here are not without restrictions in the Forbidden Forest. Their activity areas were determined at the beginning. I don’t know what methods those dragon trainers used to make them unable to do anything no matter how angry they were, unless their lives were in danger. Leave the established scope.

Therefore, as long as Emil runs out of this area, he can regain safety and finally count his loot.

But the purpose of Jon's efforts to find him was of course not to let him get what he wanted. However, he did not use sneak attacks anymore, and just openly blocked Emil's escape path.

He had actually escaped from the green dragon's territory, but the area where the dragon's breath spread was too wide. He could only ensure safety by leaving farther away, but at this time, the road was blocked by Jon.

Emil also discovered Jon immediately.

His appearance was a bit shabby, and his robe was tattered by accidental sparks. Compared with what Jon had guessed at the beginning, he was at least relying on his own real efforts to achieve results in the competition.

Based on this alone, Jon planned to give him a chance to resolve the conflict face to face instead of using sneak attacks.

"call."

Emil stared at Jon with a gloomy face and took a long breath. He clenched the wand in his hand and called out Jon's name.

"Jon Green!"

Jon also held his wand, and he looked at the boy who was half a head taller than him and three years older.

"You don't need to call me so kindly, Mr. Lestrange. I remember that we are not only opponents, but also enemies?"

The Welsh green dragon that had been hit by the Eye Spell was still roaring behind Emil. It had no way to leave its territory and could only breathe out its dragon breath in vain. This also caused the surrounding temperature not to drop, but to remain there. Keep rising.

"Don't imagine that our family is so close to the two losers you killed." Emil used the sleeves of his robe to wipe away some of the black dust on his face, his voice cold and cold, "To be honest, if you stand on From a personal point of view, I might even want to thank you. If you hadn’t killed my uncle and aunt, it wouldn’t have been my family’s turn to manage the entire Lestrange family.”

Jon said with a chuckle.

"Then you should thank me now? I don't need many thanksgiving gifts. How about giving me all the golden snitches you harvested?"

Hearing his words, Emil also laughed, but his smile was a little weird.

"I guessed that you would have this idea. I have to say that among all the warriors, your strength is indeed the highest. But after all, you are only in the fourth grade."

Jon heard the underlying meaning behind his words.

"Do you think you can make up for the gap between us by studying three years more than me?"

"You always have to try, right?" Emil took a deep breath, with a hint of cruelty in his eyes, "Even if I don't like my uncle and aunt, the Lestrange family is noble. His blood shouldn’t have ruined his reputation in the hands of a despicable person like you!”

The moment he emphasized, a curse came out of his mouth!

"Collapse!"

The red light penetrated the twisted high temperature and shot straight at Jon, who was standing less than ten meters in front of him!

Jon did not dodge much. In the past year, he had experienced so many Death Eaters' pursuit and interception, and he had a clear grasp of the spell battles between wizards.

At the moment when Emil's magic was released, he could accurately judge the landing point of the spell.

He tilted his head and then waved his wand.

"Disarm you!"

Two red lights passed alternately in the air, and the Stunning Spell flew past the edge of Jon's hair, but Emil did not dodge the Disarming Spell he used.

A red light reflecting the spell lit up on him, but soon the light did not last long, and a series of sounds like broken glass rang out!

The next moment, the armor spell in front of Emil was shattered, and he was shaken back a few steps by the residual force of Jon's Disarming Spell.

Compared to the first year, when Jon's petrification spell couldn't even break Slughorn's casual armor spell, the magic he used with his own magic power was now enough to suppress a quasi-adult wizard who was about to graduate.

This was not only because he had not relaxed his study and training in magic while experiencing so many things over the years, but also because his own magic power had grown to a strong enough level, which was completely incomparable to himself three years ago.

Emil was obviously also a little surprised by the power of this spell.

He had seen the scene of Jon killing people, but even if that scene was bloody and chilling, everyone could see that Rodolphus and Bella were really killed because they lost in physical combat.

Obviously, they were all wizards, and they all had more powerful magic and more spellcasting experience than Jon, but in the end they chose a fighting method that was extremely disadvantageous to themselves. What happened in the middle, after the death of the couple, there was no way to go into it, but this also made most people not have a real impression of Jon's magic level.

That's why Emil chose not to dodge the first spell, but to use the Armor Spell to take it head-on and test John's strength.

Just this one test made his already vigilant heart even more depressed.
