This time Harry released a large number of stunning spells again, and a large amount of magical red light once again hit the python transformed by the spell.

Unfortunately, this time, it did not cause much damage to it, as if it had angered the python.

hiss!hiss!hiss!

The python roared angrily at Harry and the little wizards around it, as if it was going to attack everyone nearby.

suddenly!

Malfoy's face changed. He found that the magic seemed to be out of control and he could not effectively control the python transformed by the spell.

The python began to show signs of attacking the little wizards around it.

At this time, Lockhart and Snape also seemed to realize that Malfoy had lost control of the spell.

They raised their wands, ready to stop the potential risks posed by the python.

But the next second......

"Fizz!"

A creepy sound was heard. Although it sounded like the cry of a python, it clearly revealed an evil and weird aura, which was creepy.

The two professors stared at the source of the sound at the same time - Harry Potter.

When the python heard Harry Potter's voice, it began to sway and twist its body as if it had a cramp.

Then he quickly lay on the ground, as if he had restrained his desire to attack.

"Sealing Ring!"

Although he knew what was going on, Lockhart still cast the spell, using the halo created by the spell to trap the python.

Looking at the ball of light floating in the air, he reached out and grabbed it hard. In an instant, the python turned into black mist again and then quickly dissipated.

Harry saw this scene and smiled. He thought he had just stopped the python from attacking the little wizards.

Made a significant contribution to Lockhart's elimination of the python.

However, he soon realized that something was wrong, and the whole classroom fell silent.

Everyone looked at him with a weird look, or rather... fear.

This left Harry somewhat bewildered.

As the little wizards began to whisper, especially some of them pointed at him, Harry felt a little aggrieved and felt cold all over.

"Let us thank Harry who just stopped the python attack."

Lockhart looked at the bewildered Harry and the little wizards who were pointing and talking, and instantly understood everything.

So he hurriedly walked up to the podium, raised Harry's right hand, and praised the little wizards loudly.

"Because Harry Potter controlled the python's attack on the students in time and contributed to sealing the python."

"Twenty points to Gryffindor for this!"

Lockhart's rescue immediately made Harry feel better.

At the same time, the students of Gryffindor House also began to cheer slowly.

However, there were only a few of them, which was enough to show the fear that Harry's performance just now brought to them.

Then, 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."

As he spoke, Lockhart patted Harry on the shoulder and motioned him to go off the stage.

When Harry walked down the platform, the crowd automatically moved to the sides, and Ron and Hermione rushed forward, dragged Harry to the corner of the classroom, and discussed something in a low voice.

However, the place where Harry was was still avoided by the surrounding little wizards.

Seeing this, Lockhart used his wand to give himself a loud blast, then spoke loudly to the young wizards, trying to divert their attention.

"We can learn two things from the duel just now."

"The first is to not overuse spells that you can't control."

As he spoke, Lockhart smiled at Malfoy below and continued.

"Secondly, we must use the spells we are best at to fight the enemy, just like Harry just kept casting his best Stunning Spell."

“The effect is very good and worth learning from.”

"Finally, let us applaud this wonderful duel."

As he spoke, Lockhart began to clap his hands first, and the little wizards below also followed suit.

Soon, most of the young wizards' attention shifted to the duel.

Seeing this, Lockhart took advantage of the situation and directly introduced: "The dueling course will be taught by our five professors."

"After our discussion, the duel class will be held at 8pm every Wednesday."

"During this time, I will teach you some of my unique new combat techniques and spells."

"Professor McGonagall will teach you how to use Transfiguration to fight a wonderful duel."

"Professor Snape will teach you some classic combat spells."

"Professor Flitwick......."

"......"

Lockhart's lectures have their own unique characteristics. He likes to use his wand to outline exquisite patterns and words from time to time to mobilize the attention and emotions of the young wizards.

So as Lockhart presented the information about the fighting course, all the young wizards listened attentively.

Well, according to Lockhart's introduction, this dueling course will be an unprecedented luxurious configuration in Hogwarts' history.

The four deans taught the little wizards how to duel, advanced spells, powerful combat techniques, novel ways of casting spells, etc.

After listening to Lockhart's chicken soup, the young wizards suddenly became excited.

It seems that after finishing the class, they will become professors with extremely rich combat experience.

Seeing this, Lockhart nodded with satisfaction, feeling that his skills in drawing cakes were still as good as ever.

But what he didn't notice was that Snape looked at him more and more dangerously.

Well, it had nothing to do with Lockhart rescuing Harry Potter, it was simply about hearing Lockhart emphasize that he wanted to share new spells.

Chapter 110 Snape's View on the New Magic (First Order 19/20)

"Before we start the class, we must understand what a duel is."

Lockhart stood on the platform, waved his wand lightly, and the words of duel appeared in the air.

The young wizards below stared attentively, and Lockhart said eloquently: "Wizards' duels are a tradition with a long history."

"The original duel contained elements of blood and barbarity, but as time went on, it gradually became an important means of civilization and maintenance."

"When a dispute arises between two wizards or two wizard families, in order to avoid harming the lives of innocent people and reduce unnecessary losses, dueling becomes an alternative means."

As he spoke, Lockhart waved his wand and in mid-air, he sketched a scene in which two teams of wizards each sent one person to bow and duel with each other.

"In addition, when facing love and pursuing witches, dueling also becomes a way to show personal charm."

Having said this, Lockhart blinked and a mischievous smile appeared on his face.

With a slight wave of the magic wand, the pattern in the air turned into a scene of two people dueling, with the winner enjoying the worship of the witches around him.

Looking at the thoughtful eyes of the young wizards, Lockhart continued: "Dueling has evolved through history and has become a convention..."

"........."

Watch Lockhart's comprehensive and detailed account of the history of the fight, accompanied by patterns in the air.

From time to time, it caused the little wizards to exclaim in surprise.

The four deans nodded secretly.

They found that Lockhart's lectures were indeed unique.

During Lockhart's lecture, Professor Flitwick asked Professor McGonagall, "Minerva, do you remember the spell Lockhart just used?"

Mag thought about it, shook his head, and said calmly: "This is the first time I have seen such a spell. The fluctuation of magic power is different from what we see in daily life. It may be ancient magic."

“I don’t know much about this.”

After hearing this, Flitwick seemed to be thinking about something, and then asked Snape, "Snape, you just fought with Lockhart. How do you feel about the power of his spell?"

"It's quite powerful." Snape narrowed his eyes, wondering what he was thinking. After a moment, he added coldly, "It's obvious that his spell requires another way of fighting."

Then he said sarcastically: "I really can't imagine that as an elegant wizard, I need to fight in close combat."

Professor Flitwick did not respond, but changed the subject: "Professor Snape, what are you going to talk to the little wizards later?"

"Lockhart suggested that I could tell you some classic examples of my own duels, saying that this could help to arouse the young wizards' interest in dueling."

"I will tell you some cases of fighting against dark wizards." Snape thought for a moment and continued, "At the same time, tell them how not to make stupid mistakes in duels."

"What about you, Professor Sprout?" Professor Flitwick asked.

"Can I go up and talk about how to use magical plants to fight?" Professor Sprout replied with a smile.

Afterwards, the four deans chatted with each other.

According to the previous communication with Lockhart, the Dueling Club will let each professor teach his own dueling methods and dueling concepts.

In this way, we strive to let every little wizard see different dueling concepts, find a dueling method that suits him or her, and improve combat experience.

This concept, which is somewhat similar to teaching students in accordance with their aptitude, is quite agreed upon by the professors.

Well, they felt that the young wizards in their academy would most likely choose them, and it would be convenient for them to give them special training at that time.

Among them, Professor Lockhart proposed to hold a duel competition every month, and he would pay the prizes.

The four deans agreed with this point.

It is naturally great that one's own students not only receive house points, but also receive magical item rewards.

The most important thing is... you don’t have to pay for the gold galleons yourself.

As time passed quietly, the four deans heard Lockhart speaking on the stage: "I will stop here for the history of dueling."

"Next, I would like to invite Professor McGonagall to talk to everyone about her philosophy of dueling. Professor McGonagall has studied the field of Transfiguration for many years and has defeated many powerful dark wizards through her exquisite Transfiguration spells."

Hearing Lockhart's praise, a smile appeared on McGonagall's serious face. Then he also walked up to the podium and talked about his own duel philosophy.

Below, Lockhart and the remaining three deans also began to chat.

"Professor Flitwick, how are the young wizards of this year's Ravenclaw performing? When I was in school, there were quite a few geniuses."

"Haha, Lockhart, are you reminding me that you were also a genius back then?"

"However, there are several young wizards in this class who have performed well..."

"........"

"Professor Sprout, I'm really sorry for bothering you last time. I don't know how to take care of these unknown magical plants."

"Lockhart, they are all small things. Thank you for the magical plants and magic skin care products you gave me. I like them very much."

"........."

Lockhart briefly joked with the two professors and then made an excuse to leave.

He found Professor Snape standing next to him, looked at him in a black robe, and asked in a low voice, as if he was a big bat, emitting a cold aura.

"Snape, have you got any results for the information I asked you to find out last time?"

Snape glanced at Lockhart and said calmly, "The latest auction for dark wizards will be held on Tuesday night next week. I have an invitation. If you want to go, I can take you there."

Hearing this, Lockhart nodded quickly and praised with joy, "Snape, you really have a wide range of connections. Some things can only be found at top auctions."

Lockhart then continued to promise: "Next time, I will definitely bring you the blood you want."

Hearing this, Snape nodded in satisfaction, and then asked tentatively: "Lockhart, what was the significance of the spell you cast just now?"

"From what I feel, the fluctuations in magic power seem to be quite different from the spells we normally cast."

As soon as Lockhart heard it, he knew what Snape was interested in, and then, he introduced it temptingly: "Snape, this is a spell based on runes. The power of the spell is not weak, and it consumes less energy than spells of the same level."

"Because it's based on runes, as long as you know the runes in advance, the learning threshold will be greatly reduced..."
