Chapter 1363 Demonstration of the Silent Charm

It is undeniable that Snape's views on the Dark Arts are much deeper than Umbridge's scripted ones.

Those who do not have a certain understanding of black magic cannot say these words.

But his tone and the meaning hidden in his words are very unpleasant, and he faintly admires black magic.

Only the Slytherins showed obvious interest on their faces, and Malfoy stared at Snape with interest.

It looked like he wasn't going to teach Defense Against the Dark Arts next, but the real Dark Arts.

"Therefore, your defense must be as flexible and innovative as the black magic you need to deal with. These pictures are relatively common black magic." Snape pointed to some of them while walking, and slightly raised the volume "They vividly portrayed the conditions of those victims, and it was Cruciatus," he said.

As he spoke, he pointed at a witch who was clearly screaming in pain.

"And this, feeling the dementor's kiss."

A wizard curled up in a corner, his eyes lost.

"Or be invaded by a corpse."

On the screen, there is only a pool of blood on the ground, and behind the blood is a blurred shadow.

"Professor, have people really seen Inferi?" Parvati Patil asked in a shrill voice, staring at the pool of blood and the dark shadow on the screen, "Is he really using Infernal corpse?"

Aiwen touched the locket on his neck, Parvati should go to that cave to see it.

Then, he would not ask such questions.

"The Inferi is a very common dark creature. It is useful and cruel enough. Many dark wizards have created it, and the Dark Lord has used the Inferi in the past." Snape said, "This means that we should assume that he is still Will use them again, well..."

He walked around the other side of the room towards the podium, his black robes flapping behind him.

The eyes of the whole class followed him again, and there was a trace of curiosity in the tense atmosphere.

"I suppose you are quite new to the use of silent spells. Now, who can tell me what good silent spells are?"

Hermione immediately raised her hand, and Snape took his time to scan the class.

Seeing that there was no other choice, he said bluntly, "Very well, Miss Granger?"

"The opponent doesn't know what spell you're going to cast," said Hermione. "That gives you a split-second advantage."

"This answer is copied verbatim from Standard Spells, Grade Six," said Snape contemptuously. "No personal opinion, but basically correct. Yes, spells are not spoken aloud when casting spells." Come out, you can achieve a surprise effect. Of course, not all wizards can do this. It requires a lot of concentration and willpower, and some people don't have it."

But his voice got lower and lower, and when he finished speaking, his eyes stayed on Harry's face.

Ivan finally knew why Harry didn't like Snape's class, because Snape made no secret of his contempt and provocation towards Harry. This was the first time he attended Snape's class with Harry. Although I have heard it many times, it is not as strong as seeing it in person.

And the Slytherins sneered softly, cooperating with Snape's provocation, which made people's blood surge.

Beside Ivan, Harry's reaction was also very strong.

He refused to lower his eyes, as if Snape hadn't said anything, but glared at Snape.

The class looked at both of them until Snape finally looked away.

"They often do this!" Hermione explained to Ivan in a low voice.

As long as Harry was around, the atmosphere in Snape's classroom was just this weird.

"Now you split into teams of two," continued Snape, looking away from Harry. "One tries to cast a jinx on the other, but is not allowed to say it aloud. The other tries to repel that." The curse, also must not make a sound, let's start."

Ivan and Hermione formed a group, and because Ron was away, Harry and Neville formed a group.

Silent spells are magic that is only learned in sixth grade, one of the signs of N.E.w.Ts level.

Only those trained wizards can use spells skillfully and silently.

Ai Wen started studying in the third grade, and has basically mastered it by now, but he is not yet proficient.

He also asked the members to learn this technique at the D.A. event last year. The effect is not very satisfactory. Everyone thinks that the silent spell is difficult, and they give up after practicing it. Instead of being in a daze, it is better to use the time to practice silent casting to learn a few more defensive spells.

In the end, only Hermione persisted.

As you can imagine, a lot of cheating followed.

Many students were chanting mantras in low voices, they just didn't amplify their voices.

Snape walked among the students dragging his robes like a gigantic bat.

There was a buzzing sound in the classroom, and as soon as Snape approached, they stopped and blushed.

When the class reached ten minutes, Hermione had made it.

Without saying a word, she cast a leg-locking spell on Xiang, and Ivan waved his wand, successfully defending against her magic.

But Snape pretended he didn't see it. As before, he deliberately stayed away from Ivan and Hermione, but deliberately stopped to watch Harry and Neville's practice.

Snape was getting too close, and Neville was visibly tense. He probably never expected to take Snape's Defense Against the Dark Arts class again.

Probably because of being able to strictly implement the review plan formulated by Hermione, Neville's O.w.Ls results were beyond imagination.

Only his Transfiguration was not ideal, and the rest, including potions, had achieved good results. Compared with Harry and Ron, Neville almost studied without any distractions. He didn't participate in any club activities, didn't have a girlfriend, and didn't have such inexplicable things as the savior to save the world waiting for him.

Although he was very forgetful, Neville was able to calm down and study hard like a candidate who was really preparing for the exam.

Therefore, he has no reason to fail the exam...

A good result in the test meant that he could continue to accept Snape's "torture". He pointed his wand at Harry with a painful expression on his face.

Harry, too, held his wand in fear, waiting to knock back a spell that seemed never to be cast.

Snape watched for a while, and soon lost his patience.

"Too bad, Longbottom!" he said. "You'll never be able to conjure a single pitiful magic at this rate, and you'll just suffocate yourself. Step aside, and let me show you."

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly pulled out his wand and pointed it at Harry.

Responding instinctively, Harry, forgetting all about the silent spell, yelled, "Armor for protection!"

His Iron Armor Charm was so powerful that Snape was knocked off balance and smashed against a table.

Amid the crashing sound, the whole class turned their heads.

They saw Snape struggling to get his footing, with an angry face... 8) For more exciting novels, welcome to visit our reading institute
