Marvel's Hogwarts Wizard

Chapter 228 The Powerful Guardian (First Update)

The Patronus Charm is hailed as one of the most famous and powerful defensive spells known to wizards.

It is an extremely complex and difficult-to-cast spell that can evoke a semi-material positive force, namely a guardian deity.

Most wizards in the wizarding world are unable to successfully cast the Patronus Charm, and even those who are able to cast it cannot summon a fully materialized Patronus.

Most wizards who can cast the Guardian Charm actually summon a cloud of silvery-white gas and smoke as their Guardian.

Non-physical guardians can barely hold off Dementors, while physical guardians can not only easily expel Dementors, but also fly, communicate over long distances, and perform appropriate physical attacks.

However, most physical guardians have very average physical attack capabilities. This is mainly because guardians like cats, dogs, rabbits, mice, and even some like ladybugs and dragonflies have very little power.

If it's a guardian deity like a bear, wolf, or tiger, then that's a different story.

At the same time, the Guardian Charm is also a symbol of a wizard's powerful and profound magic.

In the past, wizards who could summon physical guardian deities were usually recommended as high-ranking officials of Wizengamot and the Ministry of Magic.

After so much hard work, Jerry finally mastered this extremely difficult spell.

Actually, the incantation for the Patronus Charm isn't that hard to obtain. Jerry had the incantation for the Patronus Charm in a book he bought at Flourish and Blotts.

However, the difficulty of this spell was indeed beyond his expectations.

Given his level of magical ability at the time, it would have been very difficult for him to learn such a difficult spell as the Patronus Charm through self-study alone.

Therefore, in order to maximize his strength, he temporarily gave up learning the Guardian Spell and instead focused his energy on other aspects.

By now, his magical foundation has improved significantly, and he has also acquired Voldemort, a magical version of "100,000 Whys" that he can ask questions at any time.

After continuous efforts, he successfully released the guardian spirit before the end of Christmas, and it was a physical guardian spirit at that.

Generally, a wizard does not know what their guardian spirit will be until they release it.

Based on experience, in most cases it is related to the animal one is close to, or to the wizard's personality, mood at the time, and other factors.

Jerry doesn't have any particularly close animals. Crookshank bought him not because he liked cats, but simply because he felt it could deter malice and be useful.

Even now, he spends most of his time with Hermione, sending Crookshanks to live with him.

The main reason is that Hermione really likes Crook, and Crookshanks also likes Hermione very much, but he really doesn't have much time to take care of it.

So, before his successful release, Jerry had no idea that his guardian deity would be a giant seven or eight meters tall!

Indeed, the guardian spirit standing before Jerry now, which he can control, is a towering giant of light.

The giant guardian deity—Jerry had seen this form of guardian deity in his spellbook before, but it was extremely rare; there was only one recorded in wizarding history.

He was a famous ancient Greek wizard, a figure even featured in Chocolate Frog, and everyone called him the invincible Andros.

Because in his time, he was the most powerful wizard. No wizard could defeat him in a duel, and he could even cast the Patronus Charm without a wand.

Actually, this is understandable.

It's important to know that the Killing Curse didn't exist in ancient Greece, and the Patronus Charm, as the most powerful defensive spell, could basically defend against most spell attacks at that time.

Imagine a giant guardian deity, immune to all spells, possessing power as great as a giant—how terrifying that would be for a wizard.

The moment Andros released the guardian of the giants, he had already won.

"Perhaps we should test its power to see if it's really as strong as the rumors suggest."

Looking at the giant guardian he had summoned, Jerry decided to test it in various aspects to understand its power.

The best test is real-world application.

He turned his head and looked around the box space, and quickly found a suitable object to test the power of the guardian.

"Nober, come here!"

He mentally issued a command to the first fire dragon he had promised to raise. Soon, the fire dragon Nober, who was almost an adult, reluctantly flapped its wings and flew towards Jerry's direction.

Norber was over a year old at this time and had basically mastered the skills of flying and breathing fire. However, he was still a few months away from reaching full adult size.

Even so, its destructive power is already terrifying.

Dragon claws capable of easily tearing apart the flesh of ordinary people, dragon teeth sharp enough to bite through steel bars and iron plates, powerful magical flames, and dragon scales harder than steel plates.

All of this demonstrates the power of a Norwegian Spinosaurus.

"Alright, don't feel bad. Anyway, you're just playing with Norsa there. If you perform well later, I'll have Sun Long give you a treat tonight!"

Sensing Norber's grievances, Jerry offered words of comfort with a helpless expression.

Because Norber has high magic resistance, he often uses Norber to experiment with his magic, which means that Norber knows something bad is coming as soon as he hears his call.

Actually, there was no other way this time. Normally, the work of this kind of experimental magic is done alternately by Norber and the basilisk, but the basilisk can't fly, so if we want to fully test the power of the giant's guardian, we still have to have Norber do it.

There was also a fire dragon in the box, a Peruvian venomous dragon, which Jerry named Norsa. It was stolen from a French black market dealer, but it had only just learned to breathe fire and couldn't fly yet.

"Attack with full force!"

The command to attack was given to Norber, who immediately took flight and unleashed a massive dragonfire at the giant guardian standing there.

To test the magic resistance of the Giant Guardian, Jerry didn't control the Giant Guardian to dodge, but instead raised his arms and crossed them in front of his chest.

The powerful dragonfire, capable of melting steel, was sprayed onto the giant guardian, yet it failed to cause it any damage.

However, Jerry could clearly feel that the rate at which his magic power was draining from his body was accelerating when the giant guardian launched a magical attack.

Seeing that the magic was ineffective, Norber lunged and grabbed at the head of the guardian giant.

This time, Jerry still couldn't control its dodge.

The sharp dragon claws slammed into the guardian giant's head, tearing it apart with surprisingly little effort.

Clearly, the Guardian Giant's defense against physical attacks is not high.

However, in just a few seconds, the giant's guardian's head was completely restored to its original state.
