Chapter 601 The Duel Ends in an Instant!

"Please spread out, please!" Cedric turned back to the little wizards gathered nearby and said.

Everyone stepped back very wisely, no one wanted to be affected by the battle between the two.

But no one left. They were all curious about who could win this duel.

"Hermione, you will be the referee!" Ivan said.

The little witch seemed a little worried. She would definitely get points deducted by the professors for dueling in the auditorium. However, at Ivan's request, Hermione walked to the side and began to direct the two of them to bow according to the duel process, and then read out loud Countdown.

"Three, two, one, start!"

Hermione waved her right arm.

Cedric on the field immediately took a few steps back as fast as he could, while tapping his chest with his wand and chanting.

"Protegos~(armor protection)"

An invisible magic shield surrounded him, protecting Cedric.

This is the iron armor spell that he mastered after hard practice last year. It can make people invincible and gain the upper hand in duels!

But unlike Cedric's expectation, Ivan did not launch an attack immediately. He just stood there and looked at him, holding the wand lightly in his right hand without making any movement.

Stunned?

This was the first reaction that came to Cedric's mind, but he quickly put this thought behind him. He had heard a lot of rumors about Ivan in school, and he was definitely not so bad!

Other than that, it can only be contempt!

The opponent may not take him seriously at all, which is why he appears to be so contemptuous in the battle.

Thinking of this, Cedric couldn't help but feel a little angry. This was the first time that he was looked down upon like this!

"Expelliarmus~ (Expelliarmus~)" Cedric quickly pulled out his wand, pointed it at Ivan, shouted loudly, and a red beam of light shot out from the top of the wand.

The distance between the two sides was less than four meters, and the beam of light almost jumped over!

At this time, Ivan slowly pointed the wand at himself. Without him chanting a spell, the red beam was bounced back at a faster speed. Cedric's body had already made a dodge action, but he couldn't dodge it.

Fortunately, the armor spell released in advance took effect at this time and resisted this attack.

But Cedric didn't relax at all, his heart was in his throat, because the second magic beam was already in front of him, directly breaking through the magic shield that had just been weakened, and hitting him solidly.

Doesn't he even need to recite the incantation?

At the critical moment, Cedric's expression suddenly changed, and he was very confused. He never heard Ivan's voice chanting the curse, and only vaguely saw Ivan waving the wand twice.

The thought flashed through his mind, and the next moment, Cedric felt his body fly out, and crashed into the long table of Hufflepuff House behind him, sweeping away the empty plates and candlesticks on the table. land.

At the same time, the wand in Cedric's hand also came out, spinning in mid-air, and finally fell into Ivan's hand.

The students who were watching were all stunned and looked at this scene in disbelief.

They may have thought that Cedric would eventually lose to Ivan, but they didn't expect that the battle would end so quickly. The moment the battle officially started, Cedric was knocked away!

Krum and Fleur, who were mixed in the crowd, also looked at Cedric who fell on the long table in surprise. Compared to most ignorant little wizards, they had seen too many things from this short battle.

In particular, Ivan's two silent instant magic spells shocked them even more.

Casting spells silently? !

Fleur thought, she could also recite the spell silently in her mind and release the magic, but she usually needed to stay very focused and the preparation time was longer than reciting the spell!

However, this was obviously not the case when Ivan cast the spell just now. It was very relaxed and freehand, and after releasing the protective spell, he silently cast the disarming spell again in a moment. This does not meet the characteristics of silent casting that requires advance preparation.

Unless, the other party is using a more advanced spell-free casting technique!

But how is this possible?

If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, Fleur would never believe that a fourth grade wizard could do this.

"Cedric, are you okay?" After a brief daze, the little wizards of Hufflepuff stepped forward anxiously to help Cedric up.

Several people even stood in front of Ivan, seemingly to prevent Ivan from attacking Cedric again.

Ivan scratched his head, feeling that he had struck too hard, but to be honest, he had actually held back, giving Cedric a chance to strike first, so that the other party would not be too embarrassed.

At this moment, Cedric stood up with the help of everyone, but his face looked very pale, and his eyes looking at Ivan were full of complexity.

He didn't expect that he would lose so completely, that he couldn't even put up a little resistance!

Even more excited than Cedric were the little wizards of Hufflepuff. They came to surround Ivan with great interest just to prove that Cedric was the real warrior candidate!

Now that their Hufflepuff pride was defeated so easily, most people found it difficult to accept this result.

Some people even thought that Ivan was cheating, or that Cedric didn't perform well, and they all clamored to compete again!

Listening to these people's words, Ivan frowned and then looked at Cedric. "What, are you going to compete with me again?"

"No, there's no need to compete. I lost! I don't think the result will change even if I try it a few more times." Cedric rubbed his still sore chest and shook his head with a wry smile.

"By the way, I didn't hear you chanting a spell just now. Are you able to cast spells without a spell?" Cedric asked solemnly. He, like Fleur and Krum, couldn't believe a fourth-grade kid. Wizards know such high-end skills.

"So, you came at the wrong time. I just started practicing during this period!" Ivan nodded.

Ever since he learned the secrets of magic from Nico Flamel, he had been experimenting with the technique of casting spells without spells.

Nowadays, Ivan has been able to successfully release those magics that are frequently used without spells, but the power of the magic will be greatly weakened. At most, it can be used to torture people, or to catch opponents by surprise in formal battles.

"Amazing!" After receiving Ivan's confirmation, Cedric was completely convinced and praised with a sigh, then turned around and looked at the students gathered around.

"Let's all go away. You should have seen that I am not as skilled as others! Ivan Hals is indeed more suitable to be a Hogwarts warrior than me!"

(PS: Here I recommend a book "Hogwarts from Another World". The setting is very novel. It is Harry Potter in another timeline (Grindelwald defeated Dumbledore in the Wizarding War and became the principal) ), those who are interested can take a look.)
