Chapter 55 55. Unsuccessful disarm
Flying has always been the ultimate ideal for human beings to conquer the sky.
Whether it is in the ordinary world or in the magic world, the only difference is that wizards invented props such as broomsticks and flying carpets earlier, and after realizing that it is almost impossible for humans to fly with their own strength, they chose to use external forces.
But from ancient times to the present, there are still many aspiring wizards who want to rely on their own abilities to get rid of the shackles of the ground.
But there are records that can do this, only Voldemort alone.
The magic that can turn his body into black mist can fly in the sky without limit, and he also taught this magic to Snape.
As for people like Dumbledore and Grindelwald who are also at the ceiling level of the magic world, they may be able to fly with their powerful magic power, but this is definitely not a systematic magic, otherwise they would not have taught their subordinates all the time .
From this aspect, it can be seen that at least in the study of magic, Voldemort is indeed talented.
But in the wizarding world for so many years, there is only one Voldemort.
Slughorn hadn't learned the spellcasting method on the ring, but he had read all the magic materials left by his old friend.
The casting of the ring only changes the target of the spell, and absolutely does not provide any strengthening effect on the spell itself.
In other words, he always thought that Jon might be able to fly himself purely by relying on the floating spell in the future, but this process would be very, very long, maybe twenty, thirty or even fifty years, but it was absolutely impossible is now.
But the scene in front of him was without any falsehood. Jon just used the ring he gave him in front of him, chanted the normal floating spell and flew up!
The ceiling of the storage room is much higher than that of the dormitory, nearly six meters high, and the mid-air in which Jon floats is completely free to control his height and direction.
He actually made an equivalent substitution of the core of the floating spell, turning the simple core of will to fly into a control of gravity to fly.
Nothing else has changed, so the normal control method of the Levitation spell has not changed either.
But Jon is very clear that the biggest flaw in his current state is that it cannot last too long.
Even if he has spent the past few months practicing the "Levitation Curse" proficiently enough, the time he can maintain the effect stably is no longer than one minute.
Slughorn had recovered from the shock. He raised his wand, and the poisonous snakes covered the ground began to crawl towards the wall. After touching the wall, they turned into continuous growing vines. It began to spread in the direction of Jon with the wall as the foundation.
"You really gave me enough surprises today, Jon." Even now that swords are facing each other, the fat walrus still never hesitates to praise Jon, "How long has passed, less than half a year, since you really It has been less than half a year since you started learning this method of casting spells, and you have already completed the most perfect mastery of this spell."
Jon's eyes were still staring at the crack in Slughorn's Iron Armor Charm, and the palm of his hand holding the wand was sweating, and there were already rapidly spreading vines breaking into the ground within 20 centimeters around him. space.
The wand that Slughorn waved when he transformed the Transfiguration Charm still kept that posture and hadn't changed. Even though Jon surprised him a lot today, he never felt that his student could really stop him. live by yourself.
Because Jon's exposure to magic is too short, so short that ordinary students can use the floating spell normally at this time, and they can be called very talented.
He has surpassed almost all his peers by being able to do what he is today, but after all, he is only 11 years old.
Completely sealed off the space around him Those vines formed by Transfiguration can actually be solved with a simple universal solution. The Iron Armor Curse on Slughorn's body seems to be invincible. As long as his magic power is stronger, any spell can be used May be crushed.
These Jon will definitely be able to do in the future, but he obviously can't do it now.
In battle, the only thing he could use to protect himself was the Levitation Spell on his body, and the only thing he could use to attack was the Stunning Spell. After these two items were cracked by Slughorn, he seemed to have no other means at all.
But just as the vine controlled by Slughorn touched the corner of his clothes and was about to tie him up, Jon heard the sound of a spell that had been used for the third time in this battle!
"Wingardim Leviosa!"
Different from the previous two times, he finally waved his wand this time, and the direction the wand tip was pointing at was Slughorn who was under the protection of the Iron Armor Curse, or to be more precise, it was Slughorn. The wand he held in his hand!
There was no magic beam shot out, and the magic power passed through the broken gap of the Iron Armor Curse invisibly, and the effect instantly affected the wand lightly held in Slughorn's hand!
Because he didn't expect it in advance, Slughorn didn't have any chance to react. A strong force snatched the wand out of his hand, and then floated into the air!
This levitating spell was used by Jon to have exactly the same effect as the disarming spell, but there was no sign of it, and there was no time for people to react without the Broken Armor Curse.
When the wand was out of his hand, Slughorn was stunned.
But Jon didn't give up on this great opportunity that he had worked so hard to design. He struggled to break free from the vines that had wrapped around his ankles, stretched out his other hand that wasn't holding a wand, and moved towards the fat man floating in mid-air. Walrus' wand caught it!
However, when his fingertips touched the body of the wand, the wand suddenly seemed to have self-awareness, and moved away from Jon's outstretched hand!
The "Levitation Charm" cast on it also lost control, and the wand deftly fell back into Slughorn's hand again!
Jon's eyes widened at this unbelievable scene. He had never heard of a wizard's wand being disarmed and able to take it back under his control!
And Slughorn, who was holding his wand again, finally came back to his senses, with a look of fear on his face, and then he swung his wand without hesitation to accelerate the growth of the vines.
Jon, who had really exhausted all means, was trapped into a dumpling this time, completely losing any possibility of resistance.
