Raven's Claw at Hogwarts

Chapter 183 The Attacking Honey Badger

Professor Sprout, who was on the edge of the arena, heaved a sigh of relief after seeing the Celestial Vine catch Cedric. With another wave of his big hand, the Celestial Vine began to wither gradually.

Mike, who was not far away, also relaxed. Although he was merciful when he cast the Shattering Bone Curse just now, he didn't directly aim at Cedric's body, but he also hit a pair of his wings. Such damage should have been It can make Cedric lose his fighting power.

However, when the Babel Vine slowly withered and disappeared, there was no trace of Cedric.

"It's not...it's not over yet!"

A hoarse, non-human roar came from not far away. Mike followed the sound and saw a giant honey badger with a length of 3 meters lying on all fours and glaring at him.

The whole body of this honey badger was covered with horrific wounds of various sizes, especially a pair of forelegs. The two huge wounds were bone-deep, and a lot of blood gushed out from them.

Mike looked at the honey badger not far away, and the nerves that had been relaxed tensed up again.

He had seen the creature honey badger on a TV show before. This creature is said to be the bravest and most vengeful creature in the world.

Just to offend him, no matter if it is a lion or a tiger, or a cheetah or a poisonous snake, he dares to go up to his anus.And because of its extremely thick fur and abnormal structure of body bones, the bite of a creature like a poisonous snake is almost ineffective against it, and cheetahs and lions cannot kill it instantly, and its survivability is against the sky.

I really complied with that sentence: life and death are bearish, if you don't accept it, just do it!
"Whoa! Cedric hasn't failed yet! He's transformed into a ferocious honey badger. It's a superb shapeshifting technique. I dare say he's definitely the best shapeshifter among all the students in Hogwarts." of!"

Lockhart danced and shouted in the suspended attic, and Ludo and Mr. Diggory on the side also echoed.

"That's right, I believe he will definitely win today. Player Mike's flame spell just now consumed an astonishing amount of energy. I bet he's running out of magic power now!"

"That's right! My son will definitely win!"

The conversation between these three people was transmitted to the ears of everyone present through the magic loudspeaker. The Hufflepuff students who saw Cedric being shot down and thought that the situation was settled all cheered, but the professors on the sidelines I do not think so.

"I declare the game over! Cedric's current state is no longer suitable for continuing the game!" Professor Sprout said.

Professor McGonagall also echoed the words: "That's right, there is something wrong with Cedric's body transformation technique. He must receive treatment immediately, otherwise he may never change back!"

"I...can...continue to fight! I want...to tear him apart!"

A hoarse human voice mixed with a low beast roar came out of Cedric's mouth, expressing his determination.

Lockhart in the suspended attic was so excited when he heard this sentence, he gasped and shouted with red face: "Did you hear that, everyone! Player Cedric said he was going to tear his opponent apart! You really Do you have the heart to let such an excellent player exit like this?!"

As soon as this remark came out, the little wizards in the stands who watched the excitement and didn't think it was a big deal all boiled up. The fierce battle and flying blood had already aroused the bloodthirsty hearts in their hearts, and they all screamed to let the game continue. conduct.

"Then now! The game continues!"

As Lockhart announced the continuation of the game without hesitation, the honey badger transformed into Cedric on the field disappeared in place, turned into an afterimage and attacked Mike.

"What the hell is this!"

Cedric's speed shocked Mike. He didn't even have time to release his armor. He could only predict where Cedric might attack. He raised his wand and prepared to repel him with a pure magic attack. .

'Are honey badgers that fast? '

Mike looked at Cedric, who had turned into an afterimage that was almost invisible to the naked eye, and not only asked such a question in his heart.

'I remember that the honey badger's moving speed should be 9.6 kilometers per hour, so it is 2.7 meters per second.But this is placed on a honey badger whose normal body is only 1 meter long. Cedric has made this honey badger more than three meters long, and with the addition of magic power, then... how much should it be multiplied by? '

While Mike was thinking wildly, Cedric's attack had already arrived.

I saw a blurry afterimage quickly passing in front of Mike, and then there were three deep scratches on Mike's chest without a sound, from which a large amount of blood gushed out. There was a lot of blood.

With a cry of pain, Mike staggered back and almost dropped the wand in his hand.

Professor Sprout on the sidelines originally planned to forcefully stop the game, but he stopped when he saw Cedric injured Mike with one blow, although Lockhart forcibly continued the game regardless of his own judgment It made her very unhappy, but as long as Cedric can win, then she can bear it all.

However, the situation on Mike's side was not very good. Cedric's speed was so fast that it was almost invisible to the naked eye.

Although the magic perception ability can clearly observe Cedric's movement trajectory, being able to see it and being able to block it are two different things. Mike's reaction speed can't react at such a fast speed.

But this does not mean that Mike has no other options at all. Since his advantage is that he moves fast, it is good to find a way to slow him down.

Mike gritted his teeth, covered his still bleeding chest with one hand, and quickly drew a semicircle in mid-air with his wand in one hand, while chanting a spell in his mouth.

A large amount of flames gushed out from the black prickly pear wood wand, centered on Mike and spread rapidly to the surroundings like a liquid. After a while, most of the field except for a small open space where Mike was in turned into a sea of ​​flames.

Facing the crazily burning flames, the creature's fear of the flames made the honey badger transformed into Cedric quickly escape from the range covered by the flames, and poked his head around the edge of the arena to observe Mike in the flames.

"My God! Player Mike used a large-scale flame spell again under his poor skills. I have to say that this is indeed a good way." Lockhart said excitedly, "But! With the scale of player Mike's current magic power How long will the flames last? From now on, Cedric just needs to stay where he is and wait for Mike to run out of mana! The outcome is decided!"

I have to say that although Lockhart is ignorant, he does not lack basic combat experience, and he can see through the situation on the field at a glance.

Now Mike's magic power has indeed reached a precarious level. He can only maintain a flame of this scale for about 5 minutes, so as he said, as long as Cedric stays in place and waits quietly for a few minutes, Mike will It was time to face Cedric's elusive attack again.

However, will the reality really be as Lockhart guessed?
"Wait! What are you doing, Cedric?!" Lockhart roared, "Oh! Merlin! Don't!"

As soon as the words fell, the giant honey badger that Cedric turned into didn't care about the soaring flames, and rushed in with a roar.

Seeing the center of the flame, the corners of Mike's mouth also raised slightly, all of which was within his expectation.

Judging from the way he spoke uncomfortably before, Cedric's mind has definitely been affected by the beast nature of the honey badger. This is the disadvantage of human body transformation. After being completely transformed into an animal, it is very likely that he will be affected by animal instinct. , and lose their sanity.

As for creatures like honey badgers, they are not afraid of heaven and earth. A mere flame may scare lions and wolves, but for the flat-headed honey badger, it's all trivial.

So Mike is sure that Cedric will definitely rush into the sea of ​​flames and his hard anus, but the flames are his home field. Isn't Cedric rushing in rashly like dough, letting himself be rounded and flattened?

Thinking of this, Mike sneered and began to release his mental power.

With the surge of Mike's mental power, I saw the flames surging in the sea of ​​fire, rising like a real sea, and huge waves rose up wave after wave towards the giant badger that Cedric had turned into. Its entire body is completely covered.

Seeing this, the audience in the stands all exclaimed, and Lockhart and others in the suspended attic knelt down and cried out in pain as if they were dead relatives.

However, Mike in the middle of the sea of ​​flames did not have the slightest thought of relaxing. Taking advantage of the opportunity of Cedric being submerged in the flames, he danced wildly in the air with his wand, and several transparent shields appeared in front of Mike in a short while.

Not only that, Mike's body also began to slowly become blurred, and a faint green light appeared on his legs at the same time, the standard combination of Wind Speed ​​Curse and Disillusionment Curse!

Facts proved that Mike's approach was right, because the next moment, the giant badger that Cedric turned into rushed out of the sea of ​​flames created by Mike.

I saw that its originally oily and slippery fur had already been scorched black, and there were still blazing flames burning in a few places, but even after receiving such serious injuries, its expression was very firm, and its eyes were still fixed on the front. Mike.

"coming!"

Mike's heart tightened, and he hastily withdrew his magic power to prepare for defense. At the same time, he continued to cast spells with his right hand, and several magic spells flashing with strange red lights were released suddenly!
However, Cedric's speed was too fast, and he had already reached Mike just after Mike's spell was released.

There was only a loud clang, and the giant badger's short legs, which were extremely out of proportion to its body, hit the transparent shield in front of Mike, crushing it all in an instant, without slowing down at all. Continue to hit Mike's head.

Mike estimated that if he hit his head hard, his brain would fly out.

Under the threat of his life, Mike only felt that everything in front of him slowed down a lot, and he could clearly see the slight airflow disturbance caused by the giant claw slapping towards his head piercing the air.

Mike didn't have time to think about it, and hurriedly controlled his body to make evasive movements.

However, when everything around slowed down, Mike's own body movements also slowed down. In Mike's perception, his body was as slow as a snail, but despite this slow speed, even though the speed of the giant claw was faster Much faster than him, but Mike still adjusted his figure slightly, moving his vital parts out of the attack range of the giant claws.

This weird "bullet time" lasted only a few seconds, and almost at the end of it, the giant claw slapped Mike's chest.

There was a wound on Mike's chest from the previous attack by the giant badger, and now he was hit on the same part with Cedric's hateful blow again. Immediately, Mike only felt a sharp pain, and he was shot flying go out.

After landing, Mike was in a trance for a while, a rusty smell surged from his throat, and he spit out a large mouthful of dark red blood, which also contained many fine pieces of internal organs.

The giant badger, who had succeeded in the attack, roared at Mike. Regardless of the flames still burning on his body, he swooped and continued to pounce on Mike, whose chest was sunken not far away and kept spitting blood.

The professors on the edge of the arena were also stunned by this sudden change, and rushed to the arena to stop the match. Even Dumbledore on the exclusive stand stood up, ready to make a move.

At this moment, Mike looked at Cedric, who had been swallowed up by the beast's instinct and was about to kill him, and the corner of his mouth twitched again.

After that, I saw the number of red magic spells released by Mike that had already been knocked out turned 180 degrees in the air, and hit the running giant badger one after another with a whistling sound.

This time, Mike didn't hold back, and several powder-crushing curses hit the giant badger's back straightly, smashing half of its body directly.

However, after suffering such a huge upper injury, the giant badger that Cedric turned into still didn't die immediately, and still dragged his broken body with a grim expression, slowly crawling towards Mike's position.

"Pass out!"

Professor Sprout hurried over and hit the giant badger's ferocious head with a translucent spell, finally calming it down.

"Merlin!"

Professor Sprout's obese godly body exploded at an astonishing speed at this moment, and he came to Cedric in an instant, and all kinds of rare potions seemed to be free of money to Cedric's face, which was full of fangs. The beast's mouth was poured fiercely.

As a professor of Herbalism at Hogwarts, the potion that Professor Sprout brought out really lived up to his reputation. Although it did not achieve the effect of life and death, Cedric's almost stopped breathing after pouring several dozen potions Finally recovered.

The same is true for Mike. Professor Flitwick rushed to Mike's side immediately. After calling Mike's name several times without receiving a response, Professor Flitwick was almost going crazy. Fortunately, he checked Mike's name. After snorting, he found that he just passed out, so he was relieved.
