"Hello... genius...Harry Potter."
Quirrell slowly walked out of the darkness.
His robe was torn, the wound on his right shoulder was still bleeding, and his face was frighteningly pale.
His eyes swept across the three of them, and a strange smile slowly appeared on the corner of his mouth, "Magic just now, it's really shocking--"
"Avadaken Big Melon!!!"
Quirrell's pupils suddenly shrank!
Avada?!
At that moment, he almost thought he heard wrongly.
A first-grade child, Killing Curse?!
"Ha, Harry?!"
Ron eyes widened suddenly.
Draco also immediately turned his head. "Potter! You are crazy--"
Boom!
Blazing white light has shot out from the tip of the Harry staff!
Quirrell didn't wait to see the color of the cursed light clearly.
When he heard the beginning, his body instinctively jumped out to the side!
Zhi--!
The beam of light passed over my right shoulder.
The damaged clothing material was instantly scorched, and a burning pain suddenly exploded from the wound!
Quirrell stumbled into the stone wall and finally saw the blazing white light clearly.
Not Killing Curse! This kid actually dared to lie to him!
"Potter!!!"
"Professor, your reaction is quite quick." Harry smiled and raised his wand, giving him no chance to get angry.
The scattered white light quickly gathered together, forming a blazing white light sword in front of the tip of the staff.
"But it's just the beginning!"
Whoa! The lightsaber suddenly Cleansweep!
Quirrell's face changed.
"Protego!"
The protection was deployed in a hurry. The blazing white lightsaber hit the shield hard, and dazzling light burst out to both sides!
Quirrell gritted his teeth and barely blocked the attack, but still took two steps back. His right shoulder was affected, and the pain caused a layer of cold sweat to break out on his forehead.
Harry did not continue to cut hard, "Draco! Ron!"
The two finally came to their senses.
Looking at that familiar white light, the corner of Ron's mouth couldn't help but twitch.
Harry This guy actually lied to a dark wizard?!
Draco also glared at him fiercely, this idiot, couldn't you give him a hint before taking action?!
But the wand in her hand was already raised immediately.
"Wingardium Leviosa!"
A scattered stone suddenly jumped into the air, bypassed Harry's sword light, and crashed into Quirrell's back!
Ron then waved his staff.
The armor lying in the corner suddenly moved sideways, and the twisted breastplate collided with the helmet, making a series of harsh sounds, blocking the gap on the other side.
Quirrell had just deflected the lightsaber when the sound of wind came from behind again.
He had to turn sideways.
Bang!
The stone grazed the injured right shoulder and hit the wall hard.
Quirrell let out a painful groan, and the wand in his right hand also moved.
Harry immediately stopped the sword light. "Expelliarmus!" The red light suddenly shot out!
Quirrell hurriedly waved his staff to deflect the attack. The red light hit the armor behind him, and the entire iron shell immediately flipped out, and he had to get out of the way again.
Harry has already caught up half a step.
Draco's second stone is on the side again.
After just a few confrontations, Quirrell was forced to take several steps back, unable to even utter a complete curse.
Ron looked at that embarrassed figure, his eyes getting brighter and brighter.
"Haha! Three against one, we have the advantage!"
Harry The corners of his mouth twitched sharply.
"Ron, I think you'd better take it back."
Draco:"..."
The girl looked at Harry, then at Ron.
"You two Gryffindor! Is now the time to discuss this?!"
A black cursed light suddenly crossed the gap between the two people!
Harry moved aside when the magic power surged, and the curse light brushed the corner of the robe and hit the ground hard.
The rubble exploded, and the smile on Ron's face suddenly softened.
Quirrell finally stabilized his body.
Blood oozed from his right shoulder again, and the weird smile at the corner of his mouth had completely disappeared.
"Potter, do you think you can defeat me like this?!"
"Of course not." Harry answered very sincerely. "So--Expelliarmus!"
His wand suddenly raised, and a red light went straight to Quirrell's wand-holding hand!
Come again?!
Quirrell suddenly retracted his arm, the red light narrowly missed his wrist and smashed a stone decoration on the wall.
Harry, however, had already used his evasive action to change his position to the side.
Quirrell's eyes finally changed. Is this kid in front of me really only eleven years old?!
He did not continue to speak, and the wand suddenly turned to Harry, and the cold magic power gathered at the tip of the wand.
Harry immediately noticed the fluctuation.
But the opponent's movements this time were shorter and faster than before.
As soon as he turned his body, the cursed light was already chasing him!
"Wingardium Leviosa!"
The thick shield on the ground suddenly flew up and blocked diagonally in front of Harry.
Bang!
The metal surface suddenly dented!
The shield was slammed into the stone wall, making an ear-splitting noise. Harry had quickly moved away from its original position by taking advantage of that moment of obstruction.
Quirrell Turn the wand again.
However, the shield attached to the wall suddenly tilted under the control of Harry!
The metal edge of Transfiguration directly blocked his sight.
"Expelliarmus!"
Red light passed by the side of the shield, and Quirrell had to stop his hand again, and the attack he had just prepared lost the best opportunity.
He waved his staff angrily and knocked the shield away, but before the shield hit the ground, another red light had already arrived!
"Stupefy!"
Quirrell's breathing suddenly stopped.
Stunning Spell?!
How much did this first-year student secretly learn?!
He quickly cast a spell to meet him.
Bang!
Two Charms collided in mid-air.
Harry's curse light was not solid enough and was scattered by the opponent's magic power.
But Quirrell is not at all relaxed, because the Draco on the side has also moved.
The girl had already bypassed the spellcasting route in front of Harry. Her eyes always fell on Quirrell's injured right shoulder.
"Wingardium Leviosa!"
A section of the stone railing that was broken by vines suddenly flew up from the wall!
Quirrell immediately dodged to the right. But as soon as he landed, he saw that the rocks that had been smashed just piled up on the right side.
When his heels touched, his body couldn't help but pause.
Draco's mouth corners suddenly raised.
"Got you!"
The girl turned her wrist, and the stone railing that was originally passing sideways suddenly changed direction in mid-air and headed straight for his right shoulder!
Quirrell hurriedly raised the staff, but the protection only blocked the front part.
Bang!
The remaining stone hit the shoulder hard!
"Uh-huh!"
Quirrell stumbled against the wall, and even the hand holding the wand trembled.
"Beautiful!"
Harry immediately added Disarming Charm, forcing his right hand that he just raised to take back again.
Draco's eyes were astonishingly bright. She did not look back, she only readjusted the position of the stone railing.
Ron stood on the other side, his eyes constantly scanning the corridor.
There is gravel on the left and fallen armor on the right. Every time Quirrell turns, the injured shoulder will slow down the movement.
Especially when forced to change targets, the wand always has to be slightly delayed before it can be re-aimed at them.
Ron suddenly understood, what is the difference between this and Wizard's Chess?!
"Harry! Ask him to retreat to the left!"
Harry immediately adjusted the angle of the wand, and the red light passed diagonally, sealing the right side of Quirrell.
Quirrell subconsciously dodged to the left, but the stone railing controlled by Draco was already waiting there!
His expression suddenly changed and he had no choice but to turn around again. Ron took the opportunity to push the armor on the ground forward.
Bang!
The helmet rolled to his feet, and the breastplate covered the gap at the back.
Ron's heartbeat is getting faster and faster.
The left side is blocked, and the right side has no escape route, so what's left...
"Expelliarmus!"
Red light hits from the front!
Quirrell was forced to raise his stick to resist. As soon as he raised his arm, another sharp pain came from his injured shoulder.
Charms knocked away.
He staggered back towards the stone wall, suddenly bent over and coughed violently.
Blood seeped out from between his fingers and dripped on the torn corners of his robe.
These three brats!
Quirrell was holding on to the wall, his chest rising and falling.
Of course he knew the name of the genius Harry Potter, but before today, he had never regarded this child as an opponent who needed to be taken seriously.
The master's failure back then naturally had other reasons.
How much ability can an eleven-year-old child have?
But now, the red-haired Weasley actually knows how to take advantage of his position.
Malfoy family's girl casts spells quickly and steadily, and will even observe his movements to catch the flaws caused by his injuries.
And Potter...
If he hadn't been injured, he certainly wouldn't have been forced to this extent by a few children.
But, what about in a few more years?
As soon as this idea came up, Quirrell's heart suddenly sank.
Could it be that what the owner is afraid of is how far this boy may grow in the future?
His eyes became colder a little bit.
Harry did not continue to approach because of Quirrell's cough. The few fights just now made him clearly feel the gap.
His spell can force Quirrell to change his movements, but it is difficult to overpower the opponent's magic head-on.
What they occupy is the first move, the cooperation of the three of them, and the wounds on Quirrell's body that are constantly being affected.
And the guy hiding under the turban has not yet appeared.
It's time to run away.
Harry slightly turned his head.
"Ron, prepare to retreat."
Ron was startled for a moment, then looked at the blood on the ground.
"Now?"
"We have held him back long enough." Harry lowered his voice, "Go find Professor Snape."
Ron nodded immediately.
"Okay."
Draco did not object. The girl stabilized her wrist and placed the stone railing between the three of them and Quirrell.
Harry condensed the lightsaber again and pointed it at the dark wizard who was about to stand up.
Ron moved a step to the other side first, paying attention to the corner leading to Moving Staircases.
The three of them began to retreat slowly.
Quirrell saw it. He did not chase after him immediately. He only raised his wand and threw a cursed light in the direction of Draco.
The girl quickly turned the stone railing, and Harry's lightsaber also deflected.
Almost at the same time, the stone ornament next to Charms suddenly fell down.
Harry immediately stopped the attack and used Levitation Charm to push the stone that fell on the girl's shoulder to the other side.
Bang!
The gravel fell to the ground.
Quirrell looked at this scene and suddenly smiled softly.
Harry's eyes immediately fell back on him.
No. Quirrell had a chance to pursue him just now, but he stopped. Even the look of being forced to the point of collapse seemed a bit excessive.
"Don't come near him."
Harry reminded in a low voice that he did not move forward.
Quirrell The smile on the corner of his mouth became increasingly clear.
"How smart, Potter." He slowly raised his wand. "However, it seems that you haven't learned how to leave a Dueling."
Boom!
The wand suddenly pointed at the stone wall to the side!
The stone bricks exploded, and large pieces of rubble fell down covered with dust, heavily blocking the corner leading to Moving Staircases.
Ron jumped back suddenly.
"Damn it!"
Draco also immediately stepped aside, and the stone railing crossed in front of him, blocking Accio's broken pieces.
Harry is still staring at Quirrell. When he cast the spell just now, the tip of the opponent's staff lightly stroked along the ground.
It's just that the corridor is full of residual magic left by Charms.
Even if Harry owns Advanced Magic Perception, he cannot distinguish every subtle fluctuation in an instant.
"Don't rush in yet!"
Harry regained his footing and the wand did not leave the other party.
"You're so sharp, Potter." Quirrell looked at him, then suddenly turned his gaze and fell on Draco. "It's a pity..."
He slowly turned the wand, and black cursed light suddenly shot out!
Draco responded quickly. "Protego!"
Light silver protection unfolded in front of him.
Harry has already felt the sudden pressure from that spell.
The girl's protection can't stop her!
"Draco!" Harry took a step immediately. "Protego!"
The second light barrier quickly opened in front of the girl!
Then, he waved his staff again and pushed a thick stone slab at his feet towards the black light!
Bang!
The stone slab exploded on the spot!
The remaining magic power hit the protection, and the shield surface suddenly dented inward.
Draco staggered away, and Harry's arm was also shaken numb.
"Potter--"
As soon as the girl turned her head, Harry's expression changed.
Quirrell did not pursue. He stood there, looking at the step Harry had just taken, with a smile on his face.
Not good!
Harry lowered his head suddenly. In the inconspicuous cracks between the stone bricks, black lines suddenly lit up!
Harry had raised his feet and was ready to leave, but it was too late.
Boom--!
The stone bricks under my feet suddenly exploded!
A strong impact hit his body and lifted his whole body into the air!
"Harry!!!"
Draco's scream suddenly sounded.
Harry only had time to tighten his hand holding the wand, and a cursed light that had been prepared hit him hard in the chest!
Bang!
My back hit the stone wall hard!
Severe pain surged from his chest and back at the same time. Harry fell to the ground, and the wand in his hand hit the stone bricks and rolled out.
"Potter." Quirrell finally smiled. "Smartness is useless sometimes."
Draco's face instantly turned pale.
She saw Harry lying on the ground and stretching out his hands, but was unable to stand up immediately.
"Harry!" The girl raised her wand and ran towards him.
"Miss Malfoy." Quirrell's stick tip was already aimed at her in advance. "It's your turn."
Draco stopped suddenly and hurriedly put up his protection.
But this time, before the shield was fully deployed, it was shattered by the oncoming cursed light!
Bang!
The girl was knocked to the ground, and her legs hit the scattered rocks. The pain made her groan.
"Draco!"
Ron immediately pushed away the armor blocking the way and reached out to pull her behind the stone pillar.
The black shadow on the ground suddenly entangled his legs. Ron suddenly lost his balance.
"Damn it!"
He hurriedly lowered his wand, trying to untie the restraints. But Quirrell gave him no chance to adjust his position.
A cursed light hits you head-on!
Bang!
Ron hit the stone pillar next to him hard and fell to the ground. He was so painful that even his voice was broken.
The corridor suddenly became quiet.
Quirrell held on to the wall, bent down, and coughed violently.
Blood dripped from his lips and fell on the back of his hand covering his chest.
Those Dark Magics that forcibly squeezed the magic power obviously didn't make him feel much better.
Fortunately it's all over.
He took a breath, stood up slowly, and then stepped over the gravel on the ground towards Harry.
Harry tasted the blood in his throat.
He tried to move his arms, but his chest tightened suddenly in pain, and he could only breathe out slowly first.
A few steps away, Draco was holding his hands on the ground, trying to get closer to him.
"Potter, you really surprised me." Quirrell stopped not far away, with a hoarse smile in his voice. "If I give you a few more years, I may not even be your opponent."
"Unfortunately, fearless courage is often accompanied by the fear of losing everything."
"And fear makes people surrender more easily than any Magic."
Draco's body trembled suddenly, and the girl's eyes instantly turned red.
"Potter..."
"I'm sorry, if it wasn't me..."
"There are not so many ifs." Harry interrupted her softly.
"Besides, if I was the one who was attacked just now..." He looked at the reddish gray-green eyes and smiled softly. "Wouldn't you save me?"
Draco was stunned.
Harry looked at her and his voice became softer.
"So, don't apologize."
The girl pursed her lips, but finally couldn't help but shed tears.
"Idiot..."
"You big idiot..."
