Chapter 75 The first battle practice

At 6:15 the next morning, Ryan got up early to wash up and went to the common room, where Hermione was already waiting for him with a schoolbag. Because Hermione had made an appointment with Ryan to learn something about combat from him, this idea was born out of the protection of her parents when Miss Granger found that the wizarding world was not friendly to Muggles during the summer vacation. .

The two came to an empty classroom on the second floor together, and Ryan closed the door and started to speak: Since you want to learn how to fight, then I can share my experience with you.

Hermione took out a book after seeing Ryan finish. It is the standard textbook of Defence Against the Dark Arts class, Dark Forces: A Guide to Self-Defense, and an extracurricular book, The Curse of Self-Defense.

Since we want to learn, I think we should start with the most basic, simplest and most orthodox. Although these magic spells may be simple to release, have a single use and general effects. But at least they can ensure the safety of learning.

Hermione nodded in agreement.

Lane opened the book, then pointed to one of the pages and said, I think we should start with this: the Disarming Charm, one of the most basic but very effective spells. Of course, this is something that should be used by African wizards. Not useful because they cast spells with their bare hands. But at least in the UK, it's very useful.

Ryan handed the book to Hermione after finishing speaking. Hermione took the book and read it carefully several times, then waved her wand in the air, her lips moving. After a while, she stopped the movements in her hands and said to Ryan, I think I have almost learned the theoretical knowledge, and we should practice it together. Because spells are definitely not something you can learn just by reading books.

Of course, I think so too. Ryan said and drew out his wand. He had to admire Hermione's cleverness, because at that time he took 20% more time to learn this spell than Hermione.

When the two were about ten paces apart, Ryan raised his wand and said, I'll count to three, and then we'll start. One, two, three.

Except your weapons. Hermione chanted a spell as soon as Ryan's voice fell. The spell was well targeted, and a red beam of light flew from the head of Hermione's wand and hit Ryan. But because it was the first time to use it, Hermione had a problem when the magic was released, and the spell only made Ryan's hair stand up.

And Ryan's counterattack easily made Hermione's wand spin and fly out.

Why didn't my spell work? Hermione asked strangely.

This is the problem of self-learning only by reading textbooks. The textbooks only contain magic spells and principles. They are used in conjunction with the teacher's classroom teaching. How to cast spells depends on the teacher's demonstration. Fortunately, this Self-defense Magic Collection has written the key point.

After finishing speaking, Ryan showed Hermione the one about the disarming spell from The Curse of Self-Defense. Hermione saw her problem with a glance. It turns out that the sound of the letter p here needs to be accented.

After reading, Hermione closed the book and continued training. Now that she found the right way, her magic progressed very quickly, and it didn't take long to knock Ryan's hand into the air.

I think I have mastered this magic, can I learn the next one? Hermione said to Ryan looking a little proud.

Have you really mastered it? Then let's really test it. After all, you have to know that in a real battle, it's impossible for two people to stand still and shoot each other with magic spells. I can do it without magic spells at your current level. beat you.

I don't believe it. After all, you haven't studied these spells for a long time. Even if your level is higher than mine, it won't be much higher.

After that, the two started a new round of practice ten steps apart. Hermione fired a spell at Ryan, but they were either dodged by Ryan or blocked by the desk in the classroom. In the end, Ryan jumped over several tables, dodged the spell and approached Hermione, then pointed his wand at her.

When did you learn this? It looks a bit like parkour.

Seriously though, this skill should have some use in combat.

How do you know this? I remember that it's only popular in France now, and basically no one in the UK knows it. I just learned it by chance from a sailor who traveled around the world. Lane asked.

Because I have a French relative who told me the last time he came to our house that my distant cousin broke his leg while participating in this sport.

Sure enough, extreme sports are all risky, and you should be cautious when participating. Ryan continued: So I said that you haven't mastered this magic at all. Or to be precise, you haven't mastered how this magic should be used in combat at all. And as a battle magic, that's the core.

Indeed, Hermione admitted. But you should have practiced this sport for several years. I think it is difficult for me to be as flexible as you.

It doesn't have to be the same as me, but it's always good to exercise your body to enhance your athletic ability. You think that there are many spells in the magic world that are difficult to block, but you should have just discovered that these spells need to be aimed before they are fired. So you can dodge these spells. Even the most terrifying life-threatening spell, as long as it can't hit you, of course it won't kill you.

After that, Ryan gave Hermione some of the ways to exercise the athletic ability in the legacy of the Assassins, and finally said to her: Although it is a simple matter to say that the magical world treats common diseases, it is better to have as few diseases as possible. Madam Pomfrey's potions really don't taste good. So it's not a bad thing to exercise to strengthen your body.

Hermione nodded sympathetically. She had drank Madam Pomfrey's potion once last winter because of a cold. The taste could be said to be terrible, and the outer ear kept steaming out.

In the following time, Ryan took out a few small balls from his pocket, and used the floating spell to direct these small balls to rise and fall. Let Hermione practice her Disarm Charm using these balls as moving targets.

Soon, the time came to a quarter past seven. The two of them packed up the things in the classroom and headed to the auditorium for breakfast.

On the way, Hermione asked Ryan: When is our next practice time? I think this needs to be practiced every week to be effective, otherwise it will be easy to forget.

Then let's just go on Saturday or Sunday. We will notify each other when we are free. Ryan thought about it and said, after all, only during holidays will there be a lot of time for practice, like today Practice time before breakfast is still too tight.

Then they discussed some tips on how to use the disarming spell, and what to do when an opponent casts a spell or attacks a moving target.

They stopped discussing until they reached the hall at the entrance of the auditorium. Head to Gryffindor's long table for breakfast.
