This is the first time Hermione has encountered an object that is almost completely unaffected by the rules of gravity after she initially mastered them. What's worse is that this object is not only her enemy, but also very powerful!
"Ginny, stay away!"
Seeing that even Harry's Gryffindor sword didn't seem to hurt the opponent, but instead penetrated through the shadow as if it had been completely emptied, Hermione hurriedly shouted loudly.
Because on the other side of Harry was where Ginny was.
Fortunately, Luna, who was just in front of Ginny, obviously realized this in time. She suddenly turned around and grabbed Ginny's arm, and then immediately started the broom and pulled her forward, escaping from the edge after another. passed.
Everyone couldn't help but break into a cold sweat as they watched the shadow quickly pass through the gravity rules below and submerge into the mist again.
Especially Harry, after seeing that Ginny was almost injured because of his mistake, he immediately flew back to Ginny with a full face of apology. Looking at his appearance, I'm afraid he won't dare to take another half step away from him in a short time.
This time, facing the enemy who couldn't be shaken off, hit but couldn't be hit, and who was always hiding in the surrounding fog and watching eagerly, I almost felt like my little friend was in my throat.
"Then... what exactly is that?"
Because Ron is weak, he hovers in the middle of the team like Hannah. And perhaps because of this, he didn't have to be as focused on guarding as Hermione and Harry on the periphery, so he finally had more energy for thinking.
"We have to first understand what it is before we can possibly figure out how to deal with it."
"Um."
Hermione heard this and nodded immediately - Ron was indeed right. But the problem is that the most powerful attack methods that Hermione and Harry have now are almost useless against that guy. In this case, if they want to continue testing, sooner or later they will pay the price in blood.
"Hermione, how about... I go and give it a stab?"
As Ron spoke, he couldn't help but subconsciously rub the place where he was injured last time... Although he has the ability to heal himself now, a fatal injury to others may not necessarily lead to his death. But to be honest, being injured is always a terrible thing, isn't it
"Stop joking," Hermione frowned, "Can you be sure whether the black blade struck you or cut it? What if you were cut into two pieces like Neville's broom? , I don’t think you can fight back!”
"All right… "
Of course, Ron just tried to say that, after all, he was also afraid of pain. But after he responded, before he could continue to say anything, he heard Luna in front of him speak again.
"Still on the left!" She pointed with her hand, "Hermione, this time it's you -"
Before she finished speaking, the enemy was already attacking. The strange and twisted gray shadow came through the air with a dark blade. For a moment, Hermione didn't even know how to deal with it.
Besides hiding, hide!
At that moment, she suddenly fell back after a brief hesitation, and the remaining broom immediately sank down. And just because of her hesitation in that moment, the black blade almost hit her head!
"Stab-"
There was a sudden cracking sound that was so slight that only Hermione could hear it. It was the sound of the tip of her flying hair being cut off by a sharp blade.
Perhaps she was a little scared or a little annoyed, leaning against the broom handle, she waved her wand with her backhand, and a red magic beam suddenly flew toward the black shadow in the mist on the other side.
Unfortunately, her magic spell also had no effect. It passed silently through the twisted shadow and shot into the distance unimpeded.
But it was at this moment...
"Huh?" Ron looked at the position where the shadow disappeared into the fog, and suddenly let out a sigh, "Did you see it? When Hermione fired the disarming spell just now, the guy seemed to move? "
"Really?" Hermione asked, "And... what exactly do you mean by 'moving'?"
"Uh, I don't know, I don't quite understand how to explain it." Ron gestured with his hand, "It just 'moved'... like a snake... twisted?"
As he spoke, he shook his head, as if he didn't even understand what he was talking about.
However, Hermione did not ignore Ron's strange description - in the current situation where she had no clue at all, any new discovery was valuable, even if she couldn't even figure out what Ron was talking about. Something.
"Chi!"
While Hermione was thinking, another ray of magic was projected upward from the street below. The green light was always reminiscent of the Killing Curse, which made her feel a little uncomfortable. However, under the influence of the gravity rules that have not yet been removed, the magic of those living corpses cannot reach everyone at all, so there is obviously no need to care too much at the moment.
At this moment, Ron suddenly said loudly:
"Wait, I get it, it's—"
Before he finished speaking, Luna and Harry suddenly turned their heads back and said to him:
"Ron, up there!"
"What?"
When Ron heard the shouts of the two people, he looked up reflexively, and immediately found a shadow directly above him, covering his head. And in that shadow, there was a sharp black blade hidden.
I don't know if that guy heard Ron's words of volunteering just now, but this time, the black blade really stabbed towards him. It's just that... the opponent's target is obviously his head.
It doesn't matter where you poke a hole, just don't poke a hole in your head!
But when he thought of the speculation that just flashed through his mind, Ron gritted his teeth and immediately raised his right hand that was holding the wand tightly.
"Just die! No matter what -"
While howling, he pointed the wand straight at the opponent, and then everyone saw a dazzling light burst out from the tip of Ron's wand.
At that moment, he didn't even react. He even thought that Ron had used some powerful magic at the critical moment of life and death!
But…
"Lumos!"
This was probably the most powerful wand glow spell Ron had ever cast in his life. It was so bright that even if he closed his eyes tightly, he could see the light shining through his eyelids, making his eyes a bright red.
And even he was like this, let alone other people who had no mental preparation in advance.
"Ron, what are you doing!"
Harry felt like he was going blind.
