Chapter 180: Finally Narrowing the Gap in Strength
"Andy, you have good skills! Have you ever considered joining the Ravenclaw team and winning glory for the college together?"
An hour later, Andy and Zhang Qiu stopped practicing and sat in the stands with Hermione to rest.
Hermione turned to look at Andy, "I think you fly well too, you can try to pursue the position of the hand."
"Me?"
Andy shook his head, "Forget it! Quidditch training takes too much time."
Hermione and Zhang Qiu didn't persuade him again.
They all have a certain understanding of Andy, that is, a guy crazy about magic.
"What time is it?" Zhang Qiu asked.
"It's less than two o'clock."
Andy looked at the watch, "The dueling club will meet at three o'clock, and we can still train for another hour."
"Then come!" Zhang Qiu stood up and said.
Andy's athletic ability is pretty good, and he was often dragged by Ron to play Quidditch before entering school. Although Zhang Qiu is very talented in flying, he is far behind Andy in experience.
Fortunately, Andy is just a sparring partner, and winning is not Andy's main goal.
At 2:40, Andy and Zhang Qiu stopped practicing.
"Qiu, you are very talented, but if you want to play, you have to continue to practice hard."
Andy concluded: "In Quidditch, fouling is also a science."
Zhang Qiu rubbed his ribs and said unhappily: "So... is this why you fouled me?"
Andy shrugged, "If you don't believe me, ask Hermione, she must not have seen it."
Hermione did not see Andy fouling. Seeing that both of them were looking at her, Hermione said: "I saw Andy catch up with you, then you suddenly slowed down, and finally Andy grabbed the Golden Snitch."
"Okay, I will seriously study the foul tactics of Quidditch." Zhang Qiu compromised.
She actually doesn't like fouling, but fouling is an indispensable part of Quidditch.
While chatting, the three returned to the castle together. After handing in the flying broom, the three went all the way to the sixth floor and came to the abandoned classroom where magic was practiced.
Seeing Andy and the other two come in together, Cedric looked at Andy with a face full of resentment.
He had heard that Andy and Hermione accompanied Zhang Qiu to practice Quidditch. And he, a Hufflepuff, was vaguely excluded by the three.
"We are opponents on the court." Andy smiled.
"Okay!"
Cedric raised his hands in surrender, but he would not give up such a good opportunity, "You have to train on your own, but if you don't understand the technology, I can help you."
"Thank you!" Zhang Qiu did not refuse.
"Okay, time is running out, let's start practicing duels!"
Andy suggested: "Cedric, how about we have a duel first? This summer vacation, I can become a lot stronger."
Cedric raised his eyebrows, "What a coincidence, me too!"
Andy waved his wand to lock the door of the classroom, and then cast a silencing spell on the classroom to ensure that no one would come to disturb him and others.
"Hermione, you start the call."
Andy said, and then distanced himself from Cedric.
"Begin!"
After hearing 'Begin', Andy quickly cast a layer of Armor Spell on himself, and then raised his wand directly towards Cedric.
At this moment, Cedric had just finished chanting the spell 'Armor Protection'.
This is the advantage of silent casting.
It takes time to chant a spell.
Even if the time for chanting a spell is actually very short, it will seem extremely long compared to silent casting.
If it is a real fight for life, this time difference is enough for Cedric to die.
Whoosh!
In Cedric's astonished eyes, a red magic beam directly tore his Armor Spell.
Before Cedric could react, Andy waved his wand continuously, and wave after wave of attacks pressed against Cedric.
Cedric fled around the classroom in a panic, and in less than a minute, he was easily disarmed by Andy.
Taking the wand handed over by Andy, Cedric shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Andy, I am no match for you now. You are a rare magic genius."
"Thank you!"
Andy said: "But I also worked hard."
In fact, the life-and-death battle between wizards often relies on sneak attacks.
Because if two wizards are ready at the same time, it is actually difficult to tell the winner.
Even if the magic attainments of the two wizards are high and low, they will not be too different. It is always possible to use the armor spell to defend against a few magic.
Unless one of the wizards is a sports genius with extremely fast reaction speed, and the other wizard is a half-beat slow reaction.
Andy and Cedric are the best examples.
Andy has high magic attainments and Cedric has strong motor nerves. In this case, as long as Andy can't kill Cedric in seconds, the situation of the battle will be deadlocked.
But now, this situation has been broken.
Silent casting has given Andy a great advantage. There is no need to chant spells. He can cast continuously by waving the wand, which is simply a dimensionality reduction attack for Cedric.
The spellcasting speed is fast, the magic is powerful, and you can also make a breakthrough by adjusting your mood.
Andy is now a wizard with a good level in the magic world.
Zhang Qiu exclaimed: "I have known that Andy can cast spells silently, but I didn't expect that he has become so proficient."
Andy smiled and looked at Hermione proudly.
Hermione unexpectedly didn't show her face to Andy, but looked at Andy with a lively look on her face.
"You two take a break!"
Zhang Qiu suggested: "Hermione, how about the two of us try it?"
"No problem," Hermione responded.
Among the four, if ranked in terms of dueling abilities, they should be Andy, Cedric, Hermione, and Zhang Qiu.
Although Hermione looks like a nerd and is a little afraid of heights, the little witch's dueling ability is not bad at all. Her motor skills may not be very good, but her calculation ability is very strong.
The little witch can always use the most useful magic at critical moments.
Cedric suddenly suggested at this time: "I think you two can try it with Andy. I don't think he needs to rest now."
Andy was a little embarrassed.
There really is nothing tiring about waving a wand.
Not like Cedric, who was beaten by Andy and fled all over the room.
"sure!"
Zhang Qiu looked at Andy eagerly, "How about it, Andy? Do you dare to compete with the two of us?"
"Okay, come on then!"
Andy walked to the other end of the classroom and distanced himself from Hermione and Zhang Qiu.
"You guys start first!" Andy said casually.
"Stop being so arrogant."
Hermione blessed herself with the Iron Armor Charm. Seeing that Andy still didn't cast the spell, she and Zhang Qiu looked at each other and raised their wands towards Andy at the same time.
