Marvel's Hogwarts Wizard

Chapter 94 The Defensive Power of the Ironclad Curse (Third Update)

Jerry quickly changed the direction of his flying broom and executed a difficult dodge maneuver, successfully avoiding the rocket attack.

However, his expression did not improve after dodging, because the rocket circled in mid-air and then came at him again.

"Fuck, it can even be tracked?"

After swearing, Jerry immediately waved his wand and shouted at the rocket hurtling towards him again:

"Freeze them all!"

A flash of light appeared before the wand, and the incoming rocket, upon entering the field of light, froze in mid-air.

The Freeze Charm is a very special charm that appears in the second-year spells textbook for wizards.

Unlike the Sleeping Curse, which targets the mind, and the Body Binding Curse, which targets the body and can only attack one person at a time, the Freezing Curse is a special spell that deals area-of-effect damage.

When the spell is cast, any individual within the area enveloped by the magical light will be rendered immobile, as if time has stopped, under the wizard's will.

However, wizards rarely use this spell in battle.

This spell has a drawback: it's not very effective against wizards, humans, or even slightly larger creatures.

It is better suited for dealing with smaller creatures, such as Cornish peeves.

Of course, what Jerry values ​​most is not this, but that this spell has a very unique characteristic: it can affect Muggle products, or inanimate objects.

This is something that neither the Sleeping Curse nor the Body Binding Curse can achieve.

For example, if an alarm suddenly goes off, casting a sleeping spell or a full-body binding spell on it will have no effect; it will still go off.

However, if you cast a freezing spell on him, it will stop immediately.

Similarly, if a rocket is flying towards you, casting a freezing spell on it will immediately stop it from functioning and leave it suspended in mid-air.

Jerry knew that living in the Marvel universe, he would have to face these high-tech, high-powered weapons sooner or later, especially now that he was in the dangerous Hell's Kitchen, a paradise for criminals.

Therefore, during this period of time, he has also been searching for some kind of magic spell that can counter high-tech weapons.

This freezing spell is the best spell he can find so far to deal with high-tech weapons. The key is that it's a second-year spell, so the difficulty isn't particularly high.

"What's going on!"

On the rooftop of the building, seeing the rocket stop right in front of Jerry without making any further moves, the burly man in the suit leading the group immediately exclaimed in surprise.

He knew the other party had some strange abilities, but as one of the world's top mercenary teams, they had seen people with similar superpowers before.

In fact, from their perspective, once the characteristics of their abilities are understood, they are not much more dangerous than ordinary people.

Because they haven't received any specialized training, they're essentially like kids with guns; killing them is as simple as a bullet or a rocket.

This is one of the reasons why they dared to take on the job after learning about the wizard's abilities.

However, this ability to fix rockets in place out of thin air was something they had never seen in the wizard combat videos they had studied before, which is why they were so surprised.

"Dana, fill in!"

"Roger that, watch me blow his head off!"

The red-haired woman locked her sniper rifle to Jerry's forehead in mid-air and confidently pulled the trigger.

A terrifying roar rang out, and an armor-piercing bullet, longer and thicker than a finger, shot straight toward Jerry's forehead at a speed of nearly a thousand meters per second.

At this moment, Jerry once again felt the deadly warning from his sixth sense. His magic surged instantly, and he tapped his wand on his wizard robes, activating the second stage of the Ironclad Charm's defense.

Jerry's custom-made wizard robe, imbued with an armor charm, comes in two defensive modes.

The first method involves the Ironclad Charm covering the wizard's robes, much like having a super bulletproof vest. The advantage is that it protects almost the entire body, but the disadvantage is that the neck and head above the wizard's robes are completely unprotected.

The second method is for Jerry to activate it actively with his wand. In that case, the armor charm attached to the wizard's robe will transform into a semi-transparent protective shield, just like a normal spell, blocking the entire side of Jerry's body.

The advantage is that it can fully protect against attacks from a single direction, but the disadvantage is that it offers no protection against attacks from the other three sides.

The semi-transparent Iron Armor Spell shield had just risen when an armor-piercing bullet appeared less than a meter away from Jerry's forehead.

If he had been any slower, his head might have really exploded like a watermelon.

Wizards have great vitality; even if they lose an arm or a leg, or even half of their body is severed, they can be healed if treated in time.

However, if the head is completely blown open, there is nothing that can be done except die.

Alternatively, one could choose not to die and become a ghost, but that's not exactly a good thing, otherwise so many wizards wouldn't choose not to become ghosts after death.

Unexpectedly, the armor-piercing projectile was completely blocked by the Ironclad Curse's semi-transparent protective shield the moment it made contact with the Ironclad Curse.

The Advanced Defense Spell lives up to its name. Although it's a watered-down version and not as powerful as the one the wizard actually casts, it still provides perfect defense against armor-piercing bullets that are purely physical attacks.

Jerry underestimated the wizard's magic. Magic is called magic because it is in some ways that cannot be explained by science.

Armor-piercing bullets are powerful, but a wizard's advanced defensive magic is not to be underestimated.

It's important to know that the Ironclad Curse is considered a high-level defensive spell that can block almost all spells, except for the Killing Curse.

Seeing the armor-piercing bullet stuck outside the Ironclad Curse shield, Jerry had an idea. He immediately secretly commanded the flying broom to drag him backward and downward, making it look like he had blocked the armor-piercing bullet but was blown away by its kinetic energy.

Jerry crashed into a closed clothing store, knocking over a bunch of clothes racks, and buried himself and his broom in a pile of clothes.

In the few seconds that his body was buried in the pile of clothes, he quickly pulled out a box from inside his wizard's robe, took out a bottle of compound potion, and secretly poured it into his mouth.

A subtle, sweet aroma, like that of strawberries, bloomed on his taste buds. Before he could savor it properly, his internal organs began to churn, and a burning sensation spread rapidly from his stomach throughout his body, reaching his fingers and toes.

Immediately following was a terrifying, melting sensation, as if his skin was bubbling like hot wax, causing him to gasp for breath even amidst the pile of clothes.
