Chapter 74 New Enemy

Shaylin's reaction was very fast. The wand had slipped from the secret pocket into his hand within one thousandth of a second. However, Gemma, as a senior class leader and elite student, was a step faster than Shaylin. Shaylin's wand was confiscated and he was knocked into the trunk of a big tree. He spurted out a mouthful of blood. He felt that several of his ribs were broken. If it weren't for his strong physical fitness, he would have fallen into a coma by now.

Shaylin smiled sadly, "I have always thought that I have planned everything, but I didn't expect that I would fall into your hands in the end... What are you going to do to me? If you want to kill me, be prepared to face the revenge of the Malfoy family!" After saying the harsh words, Shaylin coughed up blood again, looking very weak.

Gemma shook her head, "I won't kill you. We just want to cast a forget spell on you and rewrite your memory. Then you can join us and become one of us... You are the most talented wizard I have ever seen, enough for me to follow you wholeheartedly. I believe that as long as you join us, the Ghost Society will definitely be willing to train you to be the next Dark Lord. When Dumbledore dies of old age, this world will be ours..."

Shaylin seemed to change his face and regained his calm demeanor. He sneered, "You are so calculating. It's a pity that I, Shaylin Malfoy, said that the only thing that can ride on my head is my hair!"

Silent and wandless spell!

A strong light burst out from Shaylin's body, like a human-shaped flash bomb - it was the flash spell! In this dark environment, the effect of the flash spell is particularly powerful. Although Gemma had been prepared for Shaylin's move, Shaylin lost his wand, and his appearance that looked seriously injured, but it made her lower her guard, and she ended up in a state of blindness where she couldn't open her eyes.

At the same time, a small bright red stone slipped into Xielin's left hand pocket, and a large amount of vitality instantly poured into his body, and all the external injuries he had just suffered were instantly healed; at the same time, his right hand was clenched into a claw, and he gently grabbed in the air, and the magic wand that had been knocked away earlier flew back to his hand instantly.

Xielin already knew that someone was going to deal with him, and the most urgent thing was to escape, so he didn't plan to entangle with Gemma anymore-even if he should have a chance of winning against Gemma, but if the other party had external aid, it would be too late for him to escape.

Xielin cast an invisible phantom spell and a silent spell on himself, and activated the function of concealing breath, smell, and body temperature on the Supreme Wizard's robe, and rushed to the depths of the Forbidden Forest. It took him almost half an hour to stop and rest. He believed that even if the other party had external aid, it would not be possible to search such a large area of ​​the Forbidden Forest in time, and he could leave safely as long as he waited until dawn.

Although he almost fell into the hands of the enemy on this trip, the harvest was not insignificant. Although at first, Sherin was caught off guard because he let down his guard because of Gemma, but Sherin was wearing the Supreme Wizard Robe, which he had worked so hard on. If he wanted, he could still activate the protective magic on the robe even without the wand at the moment of the sneak attack, and he would not be seriously injured.

He chose to take the risk just to find out the enemy behind the scenes and know the enemy's purpose.

As the saying goes, it is easy to block an open gun, but it is difficult to defend against an arrow from the dark. Knowing the existence of the enemy Ghost Society is easy to deal with - no matter how mysterious it is?

It has been many years since Tom Riddle graduated. Sherin doesn't believe that Dumbledore, who is so cunning, would know nothing about the existence of this underground organization. He probably just turned a blind eye and let it go. What's more, as long as it needs to continue to recruit new people to maintain its operation, there will always be clues left.

As for the person who asked the Ghost Society to deal with him, Schelling knew with his toes that it must be Gallup Lestrange's group of pure-blood diehards who didn't want the Malfoy family to be big. Even if it wasn't Gallup himself, it was definitely related to him.

Although his body was not damaged at all under the effect of the Philosopher's Stone, the pain when he was knocked away and his ribs were broken was real; Schelling didn't intend to let this matter go. There is a Muggle saying that "revenge is suitable for cold dishes" (meaning that a gentleman's revenge is not too late for ten years). Whether it is the Ghost Society or Gallup Lestrange, they will face his revenge!

What Schelling felt sorry for was that Gemma was one of his few friends. The next time they met, they would be enemies rather than friends.

The next morning, Schelling appeared in the Great Hall as if nothing had happened. Gemma sat at one end of the long table, eating breakfast expressionlessly, as if nothing had happened.

Xielin sat on the long table. Meredith stared at Xielin attentively and asked softly, "Did something happen? Your expression is a little strange..." Xielin smiled bitterly, "I sneaked into the forbidden forest last night and almost couldn't come back." Xielin thought about it and felt that it was not appropriate to drag the people around him into this muddy water for the time being. Judging from the experience last night, the number of people in the Ghost Club should be small, but they are all senior students who are class leaders or elites. There is also a mysterious leader in the organization who is responsible for teaching black magic. The power of black magic is definitely stronger than ordinary magic under the addition of evil thoughts. Although the strength of Meredith and others is quite outstanding among the same class, it is still far from enough. (Note: The elite level here refers to the top 5 in academic performance, which has nothing to do with magic power and combat performance) Daphne asked with concern: "Are you okay?"

Sharin smiled slightly and said, "Of course it's okay. Fortunately, I made several preparations in advance--" Then he sneered, "But I think someone will be in trouble soon!"

When he was halfway through breakfast, the owl delivered various letters, and Sharin also received one-just when he left the Forbidden Forest in the morning, he had sent a letter to Lucius through the school's owl, informing him of what happened last night and his speculation about the Lestrange family. This letter was obviously a reply from Lucius to himself.

After opening the letter, Sharin frowned-Lucius asked Sharin to do nothing and give up the idea of ​​revenge on Lestrange!

Of course, the letter had an explanation attached. The Lestrange family insisted that Sharin's attack had nothing to do with them, and other pure-blood families came forward to express their support, among which the Avery family, the Carrow family, and the Nott family all clamored happily.

But his beloved son was attacked, and Lucius's anger was not so easy to calm down. What really made Lucius bear this breath was that the pure-blood families who rarely showed up came out to mediate - Corban Yaxley, who held a high position in the Ministry of Magic, the mysterious Lady Selwyn, and Thorfinn Rowle, who had close ties with the werewolves in Knockturn Alley...

(Note: Corban Yaxley could control Pius Thicknesse with the Imperius Curse, and obviously had many opportunities to contact with the top leaders of the Ministry of Magic. It is quite reasonable for the author to set him as a high-ranking official in the Ministry of Magic)

No matter how angry Lucius was, he knew that it was absolutely impossible for his Malfoy family to face the edge of seven families at once, not to mention that in this matter of internal disputes among the younger generations of the pure-blood family, his allies the Burke family and the Parkinson family would probably not stand firmly on his side.

The most important thing is that the attacker of the whole thing was Gemma Farley, and Sherin could not produce any evidence to prove that Lestrange was involved.

Many times, things are like this. You know it's him, I know it's him, and they know it's him, but as long as there is no evidence, the Malfoy family is not right.

Xie Lin gritted his teeth. Since he couldn't do anything to Gallup, he could target the Ghost Society. It seems that he has to find a chance to ask Snape for information.

As for Gemma, Xie Lin didn't want to have too much contact with her for the time being. Besides alerting the enemy, with Gemma's shrewdness and the strictness of the Ghost Society, it is impossible that they would not be prepared against Xie Lin.

This feeling of having nowhere to vent is really aggrieved and uncomfortable, but Xie Lin, who has lived two lives, quickly adjusted his mood and returned to his daily life.

Boring days repeated day by day, and time quickly came to April.

Xie Lin was immersed in the study of advanced magic. It has been three months since he took the magic enhancement potion after the Christmas vacation.

After tireless research and practice, Schelling finally finished the profound "Abatyr Volume 1". His understanding of mental magic has reached a higher level. At the same time, he has mastered all the family spells of the Malfoy family through hard practice again and again, and can now skillfully cast spells without a wand and silently in an instant.

He is confident that he is no less than anyone in the field of mental magic, including Snape, who is proficient in Legilimency. Perhaps the only exception is the headmaster Professor Dumbledore, who is not clear about his depth.

During this period, he also seriously trained Daphne and Meredith. He now deeply understands the disadvantages of being alone. As one of the most powerful families in Britain today, the Malfoy family can only choose to retreat when facing several families that have united to support them.

Daphne and Meredith have good spell skills, but they have been pampered since childhood and lack practical experience. If I hadn't helped them break through the professors' barriers in the first grade, their actual performance might not be as good as Harry's.

This day, in Sherin's suitcase space.

Sherin took out two skeleton models and used the expansion spell to make them the height of adults, so that Daphne and Meredith could practice fighting against them.

Under the effect of the activation spell, the skeletons can't cast magic, but they can wield swords, bows and arrows and other weapons. At the same time, they have the ability to fight at a distance and in close combat. Moreover, under Sherin's powerful mental power, various attacks, defenses, and dodges are very flexible and agile, so for the two women who lack actual combat, this sparring is not easy.

After several sparring sessions, most of the attacks of the two women were dodged by the skeletons, but there were still some scattered spells that successfully landed on the skeletons. However, these scattered attacks did not cause any serious damage to the skeletons. Instead, Daphne, who was sweating profusely and had her hair disheveled, was shot with an arrow on her right shoulder and a cut on her left leg.

Of course, the skeletons used illusory weapons to attack, which could only leave marks; Meredith was not much better. She was stabbed twice in the back by the skeletons with swords, and even the hand holding the magic wand was injured.

Xie Lin hurriedly stopped.

Xie Lin said seriously: "Look at your performance. If it was in a real battle, you would have died long ago. Now, do you know the difference between actual combat and daily practice of spells?"

Seeing the two women nodding with taught expressions, Xie Lin continued: "You have mastered a lot of attack spells, your spell casting speed is fast enough, and you are not lacking in shooting accuracy, but your spells can't hit. Skeleton man, do you know why?”

Xie Lin first let them think for a while, and then asked and answered: "That's because your attacks lacked planning! You relied too much on combat intuition, so every magic spell was directed at the skeletons, but you didn't Have you ever thought about what to do when the opponent's dodge ability is higher than your hit rate. A skilled combat wizard will plan and lay out the next round of offensive while fighting, such as - "

Xie Lin waved the wand in his hand and said: "Flocks of birds!" A flock of birds suddenly appeared where the wand pointed. Then Xie Lin pulled down the wand and said: "Thousands of bullets!" The flying birds were like bullets, shooting at the skeleton man overwhelmingly.

Facing a large number of flying bird attacks, the skeleton man dodged and resisted, and was forced into a corner by Xie Lin. In order to firmly suppress the skeleton man in the corner, Xie Lin also cast several fire spells around the corner. Making it impossible for the skeletons to break through the encirclement, and slowly compressing their movement range - in the end, Schelling easily smashed the skeletons into powder with the crushing spell.

"You have also seen that the Bird Transformation Curse and the Ten Thousand Bullets Salvo Curse can be used together. This spelling technique is called a 'combination spell'. Through this combination spell, I created a flock of birds that can impact everything at high speed. In order to resist the impact of the intensive offensive, I successfully forced the skeletons into a corner, and then I continued to suppress them with the fire spell, reducing their movement range. After there was no room for dodge, I used a fire spell. The Crushing Curse can easily take care of them."

Yesterday I saw the announcement that "From Hogwarts to the Minister of Magic" was coming to the palace, and I felt very sad. Sure enough, the most important thing is for the author to be happy when writing. Although this work is from the same period as this book, since it is set in the era of heroines and parents, it is not considered a competition. It is a pity to see such an excellent work enter the palace.
