Chen Ang and Lockhart bowed to each other, and Lockhart explained: "This is the duel etiquette in the wizarding world, as you can see, we raise our wands to each other's chests, and then count to three At that time, we will cast a spell on each other... Of course, children, don't be nervous, I will not hurt your professor."

"Thank you Professor Lockhart for your explanation." Chen Ang nodded and said, "I thought it was my job!"

As soon as the words fell, Durmstrang's exchange students laughed loudly and without malice, and Harry and the others also laughed, but whether these boys had subtle malice towards Lockhart, that's a question. It's hard to say.

"A formal duel between wizards has strict etiquette procedures. Before the duel, both parties should hold their wands in front of their faces to show respect, or bow to each other. After that, the two parties walk to both ends of the field to start the duel. In a regular duel, both parties need to use certain magical attacks. The opponent will fight until one party loses the wand and loses the ability to fight back."

"But in the magic world, there is a tradition that has never been mentioned in the law, and has never been approved or recognized. When the conflict between you and a wizard reaches an irreconcilable level, you can reach an agreement that will end with the death of one of you." A duel, of course, I emphasize here-this kind of duel is completely illegal. However, if both parties are pure blood and fight to the death under the honor of the family, all witnesses will maintain a tacit understanding, and the loser will not report to the magic world. Appeal, the victor will also remain silent, because this is - pure blood glory!"

The students of Slytherin and Durmstrang cheered loudly, and Malfoy even shouted excitedly: "Pure blood glory!"

When the other three colleges remained silent, the exchange students of Slytherin and Durmstrang cheered enthusiastically and joyfully. Although Slytherin did not have strict requirements, almost all students in this college were pure blood, or A pure-blood agreeer like Voldemort, and a student of Durmstrang must be a pure-blood.

The professors at Hogwarts were silent, obviously making them very uncomfortable with this sensitive topic.

"Here, I will demonstrate to you an ancient contract magic—duel oath..." Chen Ang shook his wand slightly, and a silver light shot from the top of his wand to the sky between the two dueling people.

"The duel oath is a kind of magic contract, or in other words - the secrecy spell. As a relatively important part of ancient spells, the magic contract has been downplayed in modern magic, but it has not disappeared. It is only in the form of the constituent elements of the spell. Extensively forming the basis of modern magic, contracts play a very important role in most spells."

"For example, the Feilai Curse contains the concept of a contract of property rights. If an item has a real right contract with someone else, then if you cannot obtain the owner's approval, the Feilai Curse will not work... This is why Feilai The curse can basically only fly to your own items. Of course, if your spell level is high enough,

When the owner recognizes you, you can use the power of the contract between you and the owner to establish a temporary property contract with the item and recruit the target item. "

"This is an example of contract magic being widely used in modern magic... Another spell with more obvious characteristics of contract magic is well-known. It is a good helper for wizards to keep secrets, the Fidelity Curse!"

"The dueling oath I am casting now is an ancient spell. It was widely used in the Middle Ages. At that time, the magic world had not yet formed a perfect and reliable law and legal guarantee enforcement system. Wizards love duels, and duels are for them to deal with conflicts. An important way to solve troubles, it was a dark and bloody time, as reflected in your childhood pillow books, the legend of the three brothers in the poetry collection Beedle's story collection."

"Owning the Elder Wand, it was because he was invincible in duels that he attracted the jealousy of the dark wizard, and finally died in a despicable murder."

"In that era, pure-blood families had not yet been formed, everything was chaotic and lawless, many wizards had no notaries or witnesses during duels, and many wizards even despicably violated their oaths during duels, resulting in There was a lot of confusion, in the era when oath magic was still developing, someone created this spell—the dueling oath.”

"Through the power of magic, duelists cannot violate the fair duel etiquette and perform evil deeds such as sneak attacks from behind."

"Now, please ask Professor Lockhart to demonstrate for us." Chen Ang raised his wand and signaled to Lockhart.

Lockhart couldn't get off the tiger, so he tentatively released a magic signature on the silver light above their heads. The silver light suspended above their heads exploded, and a pair of crossed silver sticks appeared under the dome of the auditorium, signaling a duel The contract was successfully concluded.

"One...two...three!" The two waved their wands at the same time, but Lockhart just uttered a vowel from his throat when he was hit by a green ray and petrified in place. Chen Ang withdrew his wand as if he wasn't the one who got rid of Lockhart with a flick of the wand just now.

The professors at Hogwarts changed their colors one after another. Chen Ang didn't even make a sound, but only made a simple gesture, and then released a strong black magic.

Seeing that Professor McGonagall opened his mouth wide in surprise, as if he wanted to express some words of protest, Chen Ang explained: "Professor Lockhart was just hit by the petrification ray, and I weakened the power of this magic. It will take less than half an hour, Luo Hart Professor Hart can recover on his own. So, don't worry about him..." He pointed to Hermione who had already jumped up.

Hermione's cheeks were flushed with excitement, and she kept protesting, "How could he do this!"

Ron rolled his eyes at the side, and muttered, "This is a duel, and Lockhart himself is useless... The result was as expected." Harry next to him kept nodding, and Slytherin and Gryffindor's The boys rarely reached a tacit agreement and let out a burst of laughter.

Lockhart has only been here for two or three weeks, and it is a skill to make all the boys at Hogwarts bored.

But there are many girls here who are his little fans. Watching Lockhart being easily knocked down by Chen Ang, there is still resentment.

Chen Ang turned a deaf ear to the laughter and complaints below. As the host and researcher of a large-scale teaching and wizard blood research experiment, he really didn't care what these test subjects were thinking. Chen Ang calmly said: "Who would know just now? Why is Professor Hart powerless to resist." Chen Ang was not polite to Lockhart, and said directly: "And what is the first element in a magic duel?"

"It's speed!" Durmstrang's exchange student stood up and replied.

"Well said! Five points for Durmstrang!" Chen Ang said with a smile: "If we also participate in the Academy Cup..."

"Why not?" Dumbledore laughed. He stood up and waved some wands, and a new representative of the house rose in the hourglass of the Hogwarts house cup. There was no doubt that it was Durmstrang. points. Dumbledore said with a smile: "Hogwarts welcomes all those who come here to learn knowledge with a broad mind. We are not afraid of any competition and welcome every friend."

Chen Ang nodded, and continued: "That's right, the first element of a magic duel is speed. When the countdown stops, whoever is the first to cast the spell, then half of the victory will be on his side...Why is it? How about a half? Can anyone answer?"

The exchange student from Durmstrang stood up again: "Countermagic...professor!"

"Countermagic..." Chen Ang repeated, before he could say anything, Dumbledore raised his hand and laughed loudly, "Ten points for Durmstrang!"

"In the spell confrontation, defensive magic will have a protective effect on the attacking spell, that is, only when the attacking spell breaks the defense of the defensive spell can it have an effect, but the magical defense of the defensive spell is not universal, such as the Iron Armor Curse for blunt weapon strikes. Hitting, stabbing with sharp objects, and disarming spells and physical mischief spells have better effects, but for Fierce Fire Curse, Imperius Curse, and Killing Curse, the effect will be much worse, and it is very easy to be broken, but the obstacles The Fierce Fire Curse is better than the Iron Armor Curse."

"But what if two dueling wizards cast attack spells against opponents at the same time within the effective time?"

"What effect will it have?"

Before anyone got up to answer, Chen Ang explained the question himself: "Magic countermeasures will occur, that is to say, before you break through the opponent's attack spell, your spell will not be able to work, and the two will fall into a conflict between magic power and will." Fight until one side overwhelms the other."

"The reason for magic countermeasures may be because of the exclusivity of magic power, that is, in a force field, one magic power cannot bypass another magic power to work."

"So this leads to the fact that when the first factor of speed can't play a role in a magic duel, the second factor that plays a decisive role - the strength of the spell, generally depends on the strength of the wizard's magic power, and it is also quite strong with willpower. Relationship."

"Just now I defeated Professor Harold with speed... Who can tell why Professor Harold was hit by my magic while Professor Harold was still chanting?" This time even Durmstrang The students can't answer, because Chen Ang hasn't taught here yet.

Seeing the silence below, Snape glanced coldly at the Hogwarts students, and said in a cold tone: "Professor Chen Ang, these little idiots may not be able to understand the subtleties of your magic, can you still How much do you expect from them?"

Chen Ang smiled and said, "They just haven't learned it yet."

"Spell delay..." Chen Ang said: "This is the 'speed' super-magic technique in this trick. It allows you to condense a spell and keep it in a state that is about to be activated. As for how the spell can remain How long depends on your magic power, skills and the strength of the spell. Just before the duel started, I had already completed the magic of the petrified ray, so when Professor Lockhart was still chanting the spell, my spell had already struck. Hit him!"

Durmstrang and the Slytherins started to give a standing ovation, and Hermione was so mad that if Ron hadn't pulled her, she'd have stood up and yelled.

Chen Ang motioned for everyone to calm down a little, and then said: "And the second trick - how I prepared a black magic spell under the noses of you and Professor Lockhart. It's about the 'secret' super magic trick... …Spells are silent, and a good wizard can abandon the wand and even cast magic without using a spell. And a trick is that you can use gestures instead of wands to assist spellcasting."

"Because of the proliferation of wands, many wizards have lost their vigilance against the enemy's non-stick wielders, and you can quietly complete the magic under their noses, when you are disarmed and lose your wand—just like I did just now like that."

This time the cheers became more enthusiastic. This time, students from other colleges began to cheer for Chen Ang, including Ravenclaw, Hufflepuff and even Gryffindor. Ron even saw his two twin brothers Applause for Chen Ang.

"I came to Hogwarts, because of the requirements of the school, I will not teach black arts, but if you ask me what you can learn here, then I will say - there are too many! Dueling is a homework, yes The art that a wizard must master is a knowledge that can be studied for a lifetime, it is strength, wisdom, courage, and perseverance."

"Everyone can find something they want to learn here."

"Dueling is the most basic ability of a wizard, and the ultimate standard for testing a wizard's level of spells. If you fail your Universal Wizarding Level Examinations (O.W.Ls), or even Ultimate Wizarding Levels (N.E.W.Ts.), you will only lose your future , but if you fail in a wizard duel unfortunately, you may lose everything. An outstanding wizard who is really different from the vulgar people all stems from their superhuman dueling ability, this is my advice to you. "

"In my class, I will not teach you how to cast spells or how to pronounce spells. I will only bring you a real understanding of magic and enter the world of magic. Learn knowledge that you have never heard from other professors, Super magic skills are just one of them, just the beginning... Next I want to ask you, are you ready..."

"Have you entered that magical world with me?"

"I'm ready!" Malfoy stood up, and he said excitedly: "Professor, in Hogwarts, I saw the true meaning of magic in you for the first time, which is more important than anything I have ever studied." Shocking!" Hearing his words, the faces of the Hogwarts professors on the stage turned ugly, even Snape looked dead, of course he always did.

The Slytherin students were all a little excited. They were not welcomed by Dumbledore. Although they couldn't see it on the surface, after the savior came, this feeling was still a little obvious.

The Ravenclaw students were also a bit noisy. They had the best grades and respected knowledge. Chen Ang's knowledge convinced some of them. At least most of Ravenclaw would take his class seriously.

Gryffindors were somewhat schizophrenic, and some of their meddling people were enthusiastic about Chen Ang's promise, but Dumbledore's deep-rooted influence and alma mater's affection made them somewhat reject this professor from Durmstrang.
