Chapter 106: Luxuriously Equipped Duel Class

Malfoy shouted. The wand in his hand exploded suddenly, and a line of black smoke quickly spread from the tip of the wand, then quickly turned into a long black snake. Boom! With a sound, the black snake landed on the high platform, slithered its body, and approached Harry. When he saw this strange spell, a flash of panic crossed Harry's eyes, but then he thought of something.

Harry tightened his grip on his wand, pointed it at the black snake approaching him, and shouted loudly and urgently.

"Stupefy! Stupefy! Stupefy!"

The tip of Harry's wand suddenly lit up with several rays of red light, shooting towards the black snake. Harry hit the black snake with one stunning spell after another. It completely disrupted the black snake's progress and even pushed it back a few steps. Seeing this, Harry became more and more excited and continued to cast his best stunning spell.

"Stupefy! Stupefy!"

They saw a large amount of magical red light continuously hitting the black snake. The black snake let out a painful howl, quickly dodged, and retreated backwards. But there were still a lot of stunning spells hitting it, causing the black snake's figure to gradually dissipate.

Seeing this, Lockhart nodded with satisfaction. It seemed that Harry had listened to his previous prompts. He took a sneak peek at Snape's expression and found that his face was even more gloomy, and a cold breath seemed to spread out of his body. The young wizards below all praised Harry.

At this moment, Malfoy saw that his trump card didn't seem to be working. Then, as if he thought of something, he held his wand and shouted again.

"Serpensortia!"

He poured all his magic into it, trying to release the maximum power. This time, the black smoke emerging from the wand was deeper and larger. The black smoke fell on the ground, and what formed was no longer a black snake, but a large python. The python acted very manically, raising its head, showing its fangs, and assuming an offensive posture towards Harry.

This time Harry released a large number of stunning spells again, and a large amount of red light from the curse once again hit the python. Unfortunately, this time, it did not cause much harm to it, as if it angered the python.

Hiss! Hiss! Hiss!

The python roared angrily at Harry and the young wizards around him, as if it wanted to attack everyone nearby. Suddenly, Malfoy's expression changed. He found that his magic power seemed to be out of control, and he could not effectively control the python. The python, on the other hand, began to show signs of attacking the young wizards.

At this time, Lockhart and Snape seemed to realize that Malfoy had lost control of the curse. They both raised their wands, ready to stop the potential risks posed by the python. But the next second.

"Hiss!"

A sound came. Although it sounded like the cry of a python, it clearly revealed an evil and weird aura, which was creepy. The two professors simultaneously stared closely at the source of the sound - Harry Potter. As for the python, after hearing Harry Potter's voice, it kept swaying and twisting its body as if it was cramping. Then it quickly lay down on the ground, as if it had restrained its desire to attack.

"Incarcerous!"

Although he knew what was going on, Lockhart still cast a spell and trapped the python. Harry saw this scene with a smile on his face. He thought he had just prevented the python from attacking the other students. However, he soon realized that something was wrong, and the whole classroom suddenly became quiet. Everyone looked at him with strange looks, or fear. This made Harry a little confused. As students began to whisper, especially some pointing fingers at him, Harry felt a little aggrieved and chills all over.

"Let's thank Harry who just stopped the python attack." Lockhart looked at the bewildered Harry and the pointing young wizards above, and he understood everything in an instant. So, he quickly walked up to the high platform, raised Harry's right hand, and praised the student loudly.

"Because Harry Potter managed to control the python and prevent it from attacking the other students. Twenty points to Gryffindor for this!"

Lockhart's rescue immediately made Harry feel better. At the same time, the students of Gryffindor House slowly began to applaud. However, the number of people was very small, which was enough to show the fear that Harry's performance just now brought to them.

Immediately afterward, Harry heard Professor Lockhart whisper in his ear: "Harry, if you have time in the evening, come to my office. I have something to discuss with you." With that said, Lockhart patted Harry on the shoulder and motioned for him to step off the stage.

When Harry stepped off the high platform, the crowd automatically retreated to both sides, and Ron and Hermione hurriedly stepped forward to meet him, forcing Harry to the corner of the classroom and discussing something in low voices. However, where Harry was, it was still a place that students around him avoided.

Seeing this, Lockhart used his wand to give himself a loud blow, and spoke loudly to the students, trying to divert their attention.

"We can learn two things from the duel just now. First, don't overuse magic spells that you can't control." With that said, Lockhart smiled at Malfoy below and continued.

"Second, we have to use our best spells to fight the enemy, just like Harry just kept casting his best stunning spells. The effect is very good, and it is worth learning from. Finally, let us applaud this wonderful duel."

As he spoke, Lockhart took the lead and began to clap, and students below also clapped. Soon, most of the students' attention turned to the duel.

Seeing this, Lockhart took advantage of the victory and introduced directly: "In the dueling course, our professors will teach you respectively. After our discussion, the dueling class will be held at 8 pm every Wednesday in the future. During this period, I will teach you some of my unique new fighting skills and magic spells. Professor McGonagall will teach everyone how to have a wonderful duel through transfiguration. Professor Snape will teach you some classic fighting spells. Professor Flitwick..."

Lockhart's lectures have unique characteristics. He likes to use his wand to outline exquisite patterns and words from time to time to arouse the attention and emotions of the students. So all students listened attentively as Lockhart imparted information on combat lessons. Well, according to Lockhart's introduction, this time's duel course will be an unprecedented luxury configuration at Hogwarts.

The four pros taught how to duel, advanced spells, powerful fighting skills, novel spell-casting methods, etc., and handed them all to the students. After listening to Lockhart's inspiring speech, the students' blood suddenly boiled. It seemed that after completing the class, they would become professors with extremely rich combat experience.

Seeing this, Lockhart nodded with satisfaction, sighing that his skill in making promises was still as good as before. But what he didn't notice was that Snape looked at him with an increasingly dangerous look. Well, it had nothing to do with Lockhart rescuing Harry Potter, it was simply hearing Lockhart emphasize that he wanted to share the new spell.
