#730 - Harry's Awakening (asking for monthly ticket recommendation ticket)

After Ron's reminder, the others hurriedly checked their own fear levels and found it was indeed the case.

Although they weren't like Ron, whose fear level was close to 90%, they were all hovering around 80%. This Freddy was clearly adept at scaring people. In such a short period, their average fear level had increased by about 10%.

And it was basically impossible to avoid casualties or ensure their fear levels didn't reach maximum in the next two minutes.

“Damn it, what do we do? This guy isn't willing to fight us head-on at all.” Neville was anxious, then looked at Hermione. “Do you have any way to find his real body? Like with the 'Colloportus' spell you used before.”

“It's difficult…” Hermione shook her head with a wry smile. “My spells can only cover a small area. His range of movement is too wide, and even if I break his invisibility, I can't be sure if that's his real body.”

Hearing Hermione's words, everyone frowned worriedly. In the current situation, they had no way to find Freddy in a short time, and he could launch a new round of attacks at any moment. Things weren't looking good.

Thinking of this, they couldn't help but glance in Snape's direction, but he was currently fighting his way towards Pennywise's location and couldn't come to their rescue in time.

“If only I knew a spell that could break invisibility over a large area. I've roughly assessed Freddy's strength. If we could fight him head-on, I'm confident I could take him down!” Neville stamped his foot in frustration.

“Actually, most control-type spells can break invisibility, even the Levitation Charm, but that requires a strong control over magic. I can currently only cover two to three meters, which is useless.” Hermione sighed helplessly.

“Magic control…” Harry savored Hermione's words, a faint idea forming in his mind.

For the past month, he had actually been training his magic control, in order to solve the puzzle in the rune disk.

Harry's paper intelligence was actually the highest among the first-year students, and even the second-year students couldn't match him.

He later discovered that the reason his actual performance was so ordinary, and his spellcasting ability couldn't keep up with Hermione, was mainly due to his unstable control.

It was as if there was another force within him fighting against him, making it impossible to control his magic 100% each time he used it.

However, after this period of targeted training, and with the guidance of the Weasley twins, he was occasionally able to use his full power.

Thinking about the critical situation they were in, Harry decided to try his luck.

“Everyone, let's defend back-to-back like before. I'll take care of Freddy's invisibility!” Harry said firmly through gritted teeth.

“Are you sure you can do it?” Hermione looked at Harry nervously. If they couldn't defuse Freddy's next attack, let alone anything else, the fear level alone would cause their entire team to collapse.

“We can only try now. Instead of surrendering, we might as well take a gamble!” At this moment, Harry, who was bearing immense pressure, was extremely calm.

Then he specifically glanced at Neville. “If I find him, can you take down that damn guy?”

Hearing Harry's words, Neville could only nod. “My Battle Frenzy effect lasts for 30 seconds. The accumulated damage has already reached double. No matter how many clones Freddy has, they can't withstand my sword. As for his main body, as long as we can find it, taking him down shouldn't be difficult.”

“Don't worry, Hermione and I aren't pushovers either. Don't let me catch that ugly monster, or I'll let him know how powerful my axe is!”

Ron, who had been infected by Hogg, cracked his knuckles menacingly while holding the fire axe.

“Good!”

Harry nodded decisively. “Then I'll leave this battle to you!”

With that, Harry handed the book to his left hand, drew his wand with his right hand, then calmly closed his eyes, as if gathering something, or as if sensing something.

Not long after they reformed their defensive formation, a rustling sound came from the surrounding air, as if someone was moving through the treetops.

But when everyone looked up, they didn't find any movement in the surrounding trees, but such movement also indicated that Freddy was preparing to launch another attack.

Freddy's clones were obviously not an ability that could be used an unlimited number of times, so there would be a period of downtime after each attack. Judging from the surrounding sounds, this time was obviously not long.

“Whoosh!”

Before they had been nervous for long, a head-sized boulder flew out of a dark corner and smashed heavily towards Hermione.

“Am I the primary target again?” Hermione pouted unhappily, then, without bothering the others, she fired a Confringo, accurately shattering the stone.

However, Hermione had just shattered the stone when a second and third stone quickly flew out, still targeting Hermione.

“I'll handle it myself. You guys take care of your side!” Hermione said, seeing that Freddy was focused on attacking her, fearing that he was preparing to deceive her companions again and play that feint trick.

Therefore, Hermione decided to defend alone, then started playing a shooting game on the spot, shattering the stones one after another, not giving Freddy any chance.

Seemingly finding it difficult to break through Hermione's defenses, the flying stones quickly subsided.

But at this moment, Harry, who had been closing his eyes, suddenly widened his eyes. He sensed something was wrong. The stones were just a disguise to attract their attention. Freddy had approached them!

“Wingardium Leviosa!”

Harry twisted and pointed his wand with his right hand, then flicked it upwards with force.

Immediately afterwards, everyone saw the small stones within a five- or six-meter radius around them rising into the air, while also rotating and moving at a relatively slow speed.

Such a simple change had an immediate effect.

The slowly floating stone particles seemed to collide with something transparent in mid-air, making a crisp rustling sound, and also because of them, the 'Freddys' who had gradually approached all reflected their respective figures.

At this point, everyone realized that there were already five Freddys two meters in front of them, four in front and one Freddy lurking on the periphery.

“Kill!”

Seeing the figures of these Freddys, Neville immediately moved. He had long been annoyed by these sneaky guys, and now that he had finally found them, he was unwilling to endure any longer.

This sudden change was obviously somewhat unexpected for Freddy, which caused them to show a trace of astonishment.

In just that instant, Neville had already shattered two clones in front of him with a sharp blade.

Of course, Ron and Hermione on the other side were not idle either, using a spell and a fierce axe chop to disperse the clones in front of them.

Almost within a second of Freddy's appearance, his four clones were all eliminated, and Neville rushed towards him with his two-handed sword.

Seeing this situation, Freddy wanted to escape. He wasn't the kind of character who could fight head-on.

But at this time, the development of the situation could no longer be controlled by his wishes.

Just after Freddy activated invisibility again, Harry pointed his wand forcefully in his direction, and then the stone particles floating in mid-air shot towards his location.

These small gravels would naturally not be able to hurt Freddy, but re-revealing his form was more than enough.

And Neville, at this time, had already pounced on him, waving his blade.

The following battle was a one-sided crush. Don't look at Freddy's scary appearance, like a horror story's big boss.

But as the saying goes, an inch longer, an inch stronger. How could the ten daggers on his hands fight against Neville, who was holding a long sword?

Neville's close combat talent was not for nothing. The Freddy in the battle was hardly able to touch Neville from beginning to end.

On the contrary, Freddy himself could only barely resist Neville's attack with his finger blades, but the power of Neville's Battle Frenzy skill also showed, each chop was powerful and heavy.

Before long, the blades on Freddy's ten fingers were cut off, and finally, Neville beheaded him with a sword, unable to launch a slightly effective counterattack until the end.

“Beautiful!”

Seeing Neville decisively solve the enemy, Hermione and Ron excitedly waved their fists.

But at this time, Harry next to him softened and slumped weakly to the ground.

“What's wrong, Harry? Are you okay?”

Hermione and Ron hurriedly stepped forward, carefully helping Harry up.

“Cough, I'm a little exhausted.” Harry smiled palely. “I used a little too much force to cast the large-scale spell just now. Perhaps this is the 'magic output overload' Professor Wilson mentioned.”

“This is no time for jokes.” Hermione muttered reproachfully, then carefully helped Harry up and helped him sit on a large stone next to him.

“Merlin's beard, your Levitation Charm was really powerful just now, it looked like a level 4 spell!” After giving Harry a sip of nourishing potion, Ron couldn't help but exclaim.

“Haha, far from it, but I did raise the Levitation Charm to level 3 with that just now.”

Harry specifically glanced at the system panel during the rest, and then he found that his Levitation Charm had been improved.

At the same time, Harry could also feel that his perception of the magic in his body seemed clearer, and he could even faintly detect their flow.

Controlling it became more and more handy. Obviously, the forced spellcasting just now also made his connection with his own magic closer.

It was as if he had won more control from another existence in his body.

“Good家伙, how did you do it just now? If it weren't for you, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to take down Freddy so easily.” Neville, who had solved the enemy, exclaimed as soon as he returned.

“That feeling is hard to describe.” Harry shrugged modestly. “I just tried to empty my brain as much as possible, keep myself in absolute calm, and constantly thought about killing Freddy, constantly cheering myself up.”

“Oh? Perhaps that's the effect of 'emotion' and 'will' that the professor mentioned, but is this method of self-hypnosis useful?”

Hermione looked at Harry in surprise. In her opinion, the other party's description was just constantly adding information to herself, just like giving herself suggestions.

“I can't say for sure, but judging from the effect, it seems pretty good, doesn't it?” Harry chuckled. “Maybe we've found a way to strengthen spellcasting ability!”

“Then I have to try it too!” Ron said, then drew his wand, and constantly muttered, “I'm actually very strong! I'm actually very strong! I actually…”

After muttering a few times, Ron released a Knockback Jinx at the trees next to him, but the effect was no different from before.

“What, it doesn't seem to work?” Ron pouted unhappily.

“Do you think it's that easy to increase the strength of a spell?” Hermione rolled her eyes speechlessly, then looked at Harry again. “To me, the reason you were able to succeed just now may also be because you were forced by the environment, after all, the situation was so urgent at the time.”

“It's possible.” Harry also nodded affirmatively. “However, it seems very necessary to find a way to stay calm and firm in your beliefs in times of crisis. I also guaranteed these two premises before I felt that my control over magic had become stronger.”

The others nodded in agreement, then they turned their heads to observe Snape's situation. Although they had solved Freddy, the entire stronghold defense battle was not over yet.

However, compared to their side, the battle between Snape and Pennywise did not cause too much waves.

Seeing Snape gradually approaching him, Pennywise once again conjured a gift box out of thin air and threw it in front of Snape.

But to the surprise of everyone, including Pennywise, no enemies emerged from his gift box, as if it were an empty box.

“Using Legilimency tricks on a master of Occlumency is naive!”

Snape only said this sentence after approaching Pennywise, and then tore the other party to pieces with Sectumsempra.

Seeing Snape solve Pennywise, who had played them in the palm of his hand before, so easily, Harry and the others couldn't help but swallow.

After successfully killing three elite enemies, only some demon servants were left on the battlefield. As for Jason, who had been helping everyone attract firepower, he had already been killed twice, and only had a kitchen knife left to fight.

Next, everyone returned to the location where the Revelation Documents were fused, and at the same time, Ron solved some enemies, allowing him to use the Brave Badge's ability to reduce some fear.

Finally, after the 10-minute countdown, the remaining demon servants turned into ashes and dissipated in the air.

At the same time, the Revelation Documents were finally synthesized, turning into a light blue book and slowly falling from mid-air.

First release latest.
