Chapter 44 End of Semester
There was an uproar!
As we all know, if a wizard wants to fly, he must use a flying weapon, such as a magic broom or a magic flying carpet. A wizard cannot fly with his body.Although there are rumors that the mysterious person whose name cannot be said can fly, this rumor has never been confirmed, and even if the rumor is finally proved to be true, it is also a mysterious person.
Schelling is just a second-year student, how could he possibly be able to fly?
Only the professors with good eyesight could see that Xie Lin didn't fly, it was actually a kind of floating spell. Xie Lin calculated the distance between the two sides, the height and thickness of the air wave, and used the floating spell to lift himself to a certain height in a short period of time, which was enough for him to fly across the air wave and come to Merlin. At this moment, the distance between the two was less than two feet!
Xie Lin shot two spells at Merlin in a blink of an eye. The first spell flashed a red light similar to the Disarming Curse, and the second spell flashed a gray light that no one could recognize.
Even though he was approached by Schelling, Merlin didn't lose his footing. With his casting speed, even at such a short distance, it was enough for him to cast the Iron Armor Curse to defend.Merlin quickly cast two Iron Armor Curses, the first Iron Armor Curse accurately blocked Schelling's first Disarming Curse, and Schelling's second unknown spell made an abrupt turn, avoiding the Iron Armor Curse and turning to Merlin's left!
Merlin frowned. He didn't understand the purpose of the other party's move at all. He could only raise his wand and keep his eyes on the whereabouts of the unknown spell, always on guard against any possible changes.It's a pity that he didn't know it at all. His act of staring at the spell was a serious mistake, because this unknown spell was Schelling's original Shining Curse.
The magic beam suddenly burst into a dazzling light, like a white sun that exploded.
Although it was in broad daylight at this moment, Merlin's eyes were flashed by a strong light at a distance of less than one foot. Even though Merlin was just a spirit-like existence, he still fell into a state of intense dizziness, confusion, and blindness!Merlin didn't expect this situation at all. At this moment, he couldn't make any response due to his out-of-control mental state, and his whole person was like a statue that couldn't respond.After his eyesight and spirit returned to normal, he found that Xie Lin was smiling at him politely, and he was still playing with the wand that belonged to him at will.
Merlin is defeated!Lost to a 2nd grader!
Professor McGonagall, Professor Sprout, and Professor Flitwick stood up in disbelief. Among the four deans, only Snape was more accustomed to Schelling's mystery, and did not lose his composure like the other deans.Dumbledore once again showed a thoughtful expression, his eyes flickering with various unknowable thoughts.
In all fairness, Merlin's strength far exceeds that of Schelling, but with Schelling's precise layout, extremely precise calculations, and hidden trump card, he managed to catch Merlin by surprise.Of course, the experience of the first four contestants also gave him a lot of reference.If he did it all over again, Merlin was prepared for the Flash Curse, and Xie Lin would not be able to replicate this victory.
It wasn't until the moment when Merlin admitted "I've lost" that the students in the audience erupted into cheers that resounded through the sky. This was a cheer in the strict sense of the audience, regardless of college, grade, bloodline, or gender.No one, like Schelling or not, could deny the thrill of a student defeating the legendary wizard Merlin.
And the name of Schelling has officially become the legend of Hogwarts.
Next it was Cedric's turn to play. Cedric's strength is actually not weak, but compared with the rest of the contestants, his performance can be described as lackluster, so I won't mention it here.In the last event of the competition, only Schelling scored a full 50 points, Percy and Penello each scored 30 points, and Gemma, Cassius and Cedric all scored 10 points.
The championship fell into the hands of Schelling without any suspense. When Schelling received the special Medal of Honor of Sir Merlin from Dumbledore and wore it on his wizard robe, there was another burst of warm applause from the audience.
Merlin in the audience looked at this scene and showed a gratified smile. He secretly exchanged eyes with Dumbledore again, and disappeared into smoke before everyone noticed.
Schelling stepped off the stage to meet the rest of the contestants.
Percy was slightly embarrassed, obviously a little embarrassed by his earlier words, but he still politely expressed his congratulations.Penello and Cedric sincerely expressed their admiration for Schelling, and they were not at all embarrassed because Schelling was younger than them.
As for the two contestants in Slytherin, instead of feeling jealous because of their defeat, they were more excited than Schelling. Cassius slapped Schelling vigorously on the shoulder, jumping up and down like a monkey and cheering;Schelling smiled happily, because he knew that Slytherin had begun to change, and Slytherin's spirit of unity and sense of collective honor were fully revealed at this moment.
[Merlin's special Medal of Honor has been obtained! 】
The rest of the semester was spent in a dazzling sunshine.
The school canceled exams and Quidditch, causing students to be idle, and students can be seen all over the campus playing wizard chess, backgammon, gobstones, ten-pin bowls or crackling explosions.
Xie Lin carefully sorted out the harvest of this semester.
He first gave Dobby the entire 20 pints of octopus venom, most of the basilisk's snake meat and snake skin to the underground black market in Knockturn Alley, in exchange for a large sum of Galleons.Then he also took time every day to study the map of the Forbidden Forest obtained from Daphne, trying to understand the topography and regional distribution of the Forbidden Forest.
The last time I entered the Forbidden Forest, I just followed Harry's route to the spider's lair, and did not fully explore other areas of the Forbidden Forest.
In the rest of the time, Xie Lin rarely let go to play and build relationships with his friends.
The little wizards of Slytherin are generally well-off, so they can play relatively high-end games-Nott brought a miniature skeleton model from home, and he can command it to fight as long as he injects magic power.The game is played on a sand table, which has deserts, forests, oceans and other landforms. The skeleton model also has four types: skeleton swordsman, skeleton wolf knight, skeleton archer and lich.
Players have to control skeleton models with different abilities to conquer the city in the sand table, which is similar to the Risk (big battle) board game in the Muggle world.
Nott estimated that he played a lot since he was a child. His strategic ability is first-rate, and he beat Draco to pieces every time, making him scream with anger.Blaise is a strong talker, he speaks loudly, but his actual performance is much worse than Draco's.After losing several times, Schelling gradually realized the essentials, and was able to enter a situation of winning and losing with Nott.
Bryce usually seems to have his eyes above his head, and he doesn't seem to care about anything.But after getting along for a long time, Xie Lin discovered that he was actually Mensao.Blaise's mother had remarried seven times, each time inheriting a considerable amount of inheritance, so her daily life was extravagant, even worse than Draco's.
Blaise took out a miniature model of the Riva yacht from the luggage. A few friends were at the Black Lake, and with a spell activated, the appearance of the yacht became normal size.
Riva is one of the oldest, most legendary and most expensive brands in the world's yachting industry. It is known as the "Rolls Royce of the yachting industry". The interior design and furnishings are all extremely luxurious and comfortable. With the use of the traceless stretching spell, the space inside is enough to accommodate more than 30 people.
Although the Ministry of Magic has laws against Muggle items, it is quite tolerant of cars, yachts, and motorcycles. As far as Schelling knows, many senior officials of the Ministry of Magic have several Rolls-Royces and Lamborghinis hidden in their homes.
(Note: This is not fabricated by the author. It comes from the Pottermore chapter "Technology". Most pure-blood families also like cars and yachts. Only the Black family is one of the few extremists who resolutely do not touch Muggle items. That's why Sirius was ostracized for owning a motorcycle.)
A few friends excitedly called all the female partners they knew, found a sunny day, and held a swimsuit party on the Black Lake.Don't look at Blaise's usual reckless appearance, in fact, he has quietly had two good-looking female companions among the first-year students in Slytherin.
Draco was not bad either, with Pansy who was deliberately dressed charmingly by his side, and his fit body that he had cultivated through Quidditch training this year also attracted a lot of attention.
Needless to say for Schelling, Daphne and Meredith followed closely beside Schelling, never leaving her. Even so, they still couldn’t resist the mad bees and butterflies surrounding Schelling. Tracy Davis and Audrey Runcorn of the same class took this opportunity to dress up beautifully and showed off their newly developed graceful figures; the first-year school girls took the fresh and cute route, and their dressing styles were as cute and sweet as possible...
Before Xie Lin had time to be proud of his charm, Daphne and Meredith pinched Xie Lin's arm flesh with sharp fingernails from behind at the same time, causing Xie Lin to gasp in pain. His mind was full of the woman's truly terrifying appearance, and cold sweat dripped from his forehead unconsciously.
Nott, Goyle, and Crabbe stared straight at the second daughter in a swimsuit next to Schelling. Daphne's figure was plump and hot, and it was believed that her family had spent a lot of expensive potions on her; Meredith benefited from her natural strong genes, and had a tall figure that was born with clothes hangers. Coupled with her cold and arrogant temperament of an iceberg beauty, she was not inferior to Daphne in terms of charm.
The three boys have gone through two hard semesters and still haven't made good female companions. They can only look at the three friends of the same year with envy and hatred. Among them, Xie Lin, who is surrounded by beautiful people, makes them gnash their teeth. Brother, you eat the meat, at least save some soup. If you eat alone, you will be punished by God, and the three boys can only curse in their hearts.
Since they were underage, the party on the yacht only had butter beer and other non-alcoholic drinks, so apart from playing musical instruments, singing, and dancing, nothing indescribable happened to them.
By the way, Brace's heavy metal guitar is sneaky, which is not inferior to that of Heathcote Barbary in Weird Sisters, successfully bringing the atmosphere of the party to a warm climax.
In addition, Terrence Higgs, a third-year student, approached Schelling on purpose, offered to make friends with Schelling, and invited Schelling to go to Norfolk with him to hunt the Nogtail during the summer vacation. At that time, his father Bertie Higgs, Rufus Scrimgeour, the director of the Auror Office, and Tiberus McLaggen, a member of the Wizengamot, would all go together.Seeing that the other party took the initiative to make friends, Xie Lin would naturally appreciate him, not to mention making friends with the power class of the Ministry of Magic would be beneficial and harmless to him.
Gemma Farley also approached Schelling and wanted to invite Schelling to her family's insect farm in Kent during the summer vacation.Scarabs, billywigs, heartworms and giant snails are used as ingredients for potions on her family farm.In addition to being sold, it can also be used as bait to fish in the pond on the farm, catching Shrake, which is delicious but very difficult to catch because of its fin spines.Careful Schelling noticed a trace of inexplicable emotion in the eyes of his senior sister Gemma. Although he was interested in tasting Chirac fish, he reluctantly refused, which disappointed Gemma.
Time passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye, it was the holiday again, and the students were about to take the Hogwarts Express to go home.
On the train, Schelling, Daphne, and Meredith occupied a separate compartment, and Daphne handed him the thick stack of blood research materials sent to her by the family not long ago.Xie Lin took these materials as treasures, and at the same time thought of the Patronus Charm that had been included in the learning content of the summer vacation. It seemed that he had a hunch that this summer vacation would be very fulfilling.
