Marvel's Hogwarts Wizard

Chapter 117 Ghost Claw Fire Dragon Sun Long (Second Update)

"Snap!"

A sound of shattering glass rang out above Jerry's head.

Looking up, I saw that Balthazar had smashed through the fourth-floor window and was hurtling down.

"Yugadimurleviosa!"

Jerry quickly drew his wand and cast a levitation spell on Balthazar above his head, saving him from being hit.

Meanwhile, the Chinese people in Chinatown nearby, seeing Balthazar floating in the air and slowly descending, assumed he was performing some kind of levitation magic trick and immediately started clapping.

"What happened?"

Amidst enthusiastic applause, Jerry and Dave both looked at Balthazar.

Logically speaking, their speed riding the giant iron bird shouldn't have been slower than that of the Demon King, so how come Balthazar was still attacked?

Before Balthazar could answer, Horvas, on the fourth floor, had already poked his head out of the window holding a Russian nesting doll, a smug look on his face, and said:

"Barsadze, you're still so easily fooled!"

It turns out that the beautiful woman Horvas had just conjured was none other than Veronica, who two thousand years ago used her own body to seal Morgana's soul, and was eventually sealed together with her into the deepest part of the Grim Reaper's palm.

She is also the junior sister of the three and Balthazar's lover.

As Balthazar received the Death Hand from the old woman, Horvath, disguised as Veronica, suddenly knocked on the door and entered.

The moment he saw Veronica, Balthazar froze, instantly letting down his guard.

Horvath seized the opportunity and used an air cannon to send the defenseless Balthazar flying out of the window, taking away the Death Hand.

"We'll talk about that later; first, let's retrieve the Grim Reaper's Hand!"

Balthazar knew this wasn't the time to explain. If Horvas released his sealed companions, things would get complicated. So he turned and ran toward the stairwell.

Jerry and Dave naturally followed immediately.

Upon reaching the fourth floor, Horvath and the Hand of Death had both disappeared, except for the elderly Chinese woman who was quite frightened.

"It's up there!"

Balthazar sensed it and immediately located Horvas's position.

Having wielded the Hand of Death for over two thousand years, Balthazar could pinpoint its location no matter where it was taken.

However, when they reached the rooftop via the stairs, a Chinese man with a Qing Dynasty-style queue, bare-chested, and wearing a dragon-shaped armor around his waist blocked their way.

"Hey, that's great, Bayisaza!"

"Ghost Claw Fire Dragon - Sun Dragon!"

Balthazar frowned as he looked at the person blocking his way.

This is a Morgana sect wizard he captured and sealed in Hong Kong, China, more than a hundred years ago. He was quite skilled in fire magic and mimicry magic.

Although their overall strength is a level below his, they are blocking his way here, and it won't be resolved in a short time.

The key issue is that this guy's actions have delayed things, making it much more difficult to catch Horvas and retrieve the Death Hand.

Because at that moment, Horvas was pointing his wand at a piece of paper with a pterosaur drawn on it from behind Sun Long.

"roar!"

A pterosaur, not much smaller than the previous iron bird, flew out of the paper and landed in front of Horvas.

"goodbye!"

Horvas jumped onto the pterosaur's back, waved towards Balthazar, and proudly rode away on the pterosaur.

"You go find the King of the Insects; leave this guy to me for now!"

Jerry picked up his wand and took a step forward.

Balthazar hesitated for a second, but finally nodded.

Before Dave fully masters Merlin's power, he absolutely cannot let Horvas release Morgana. Jerry also demonstrated considerable strength in his previous battle with Horvas, so he can only entrust the task to Jerry for now.

"Hold him off for a bit, then you run!"

"Want to leave? Not so easy!"

Seeing Balthazar and Dave about to bypass him and chase Horvas, Sun Long, speaking in Cantonese, waved his hands and instantly controlled countless silver needles to shoot towards the two of them.

"You look down on me? Freeze everyone!"

Jerry leaped in front of Balthazar and Dave, casting a freezing spell that froze all the silver needles in mid-air.

The reason he wanted to stay was, of course, because he wanted Sun Long's magic ring.

Without Sun Long's obstruction, Balthazar quickly focused his energy on casting a spell, summoning back the large iron bird that had been left on the high-rise building outside Chinatown. Then, he and Dave rode the large iron bird and chased after Horvath.

Upon seeing this, Sun Long immediately abandoned control of the silver needles and clasped his hands together, about to cast some kind of magic to block them, but then he discovered that a blue light suddenly shot towards him from the other side.

It turned out that Jerry had just cast a sleeping spell on Sun Long.

"You're looking for shit! (You're looking for death)"

With a roar, Sun Long waved his hands, and a fiery shield, almost solid, instantly rose in front of him, blocking Jerry's sleeping spell.

"You can insult me, I can too! Go eat shit!"

Seeing that Sun Long blocked his magic with a wall of fire, Jerry was not in a hurry. Instead, he cursed in his most familiar Cantonese swear words while taking out a wizard's robe from the box and putting it on.

The wizard's robes are inscribed with an armor charm, which greatly enhances his defense.

Upon hearing Jerry's somewhat broken Cantonese, Sun Long immediately flew into a rage. He rubbed his hands together, and a large fireball formed. He pushed it towards Jerry, and it shot towards him like a cannonball.

Jerry remained calm upon seeing this, immediately activating the second mode of the wizard robes by pointing his wand at them, instantly forming a semi-transparent armored protective shield.

The fireball struck the shield, causing only a slight tremor before being deflected to the side.

"His arrows never miss!"

He put away his wand and cast an arrow-slinging spell, sending more than a dozen arrows flying towards Sun Long.

Sun Long waved his hands, and the vanished fire shield reappeared, instantly incinerating more than a dozen arrows into nothingness.

Battles between normal mages are not as dangerous as those between warriors, because neither of them is good at close combat, so they usually engage in ranged attacks, one spell for each other.

The key to victory or defeat lies in the amount of magic the mage possesses; the more magic a mage possesses, the more attack methods they can choose.

On the other hand, it lies in the understanding of magic. The deeper the understanding of magic, the greater the power of magic, and the more difficult it will be for the opponent to defend against.

Just like now, if Jerry's magic power is much higher than Sun Long's, then even if Sun Long uses fire escape, he won't be able to defend against Jerry's magic attack at all, and his defense will be broken directly. The reverse is also true.

Finally, there's the amount of magic power stored within the two mages. If their understanding of magic and the amount of magic they can control are roughly the same, then the battle will reach a stalemate.

At this point, you either have to give up and leave, or you have to compete in terms of the magic power within your body.

Finally, if the opponent runs out of magic power before you do and can no longer cast spells, then you will naturally win.
