They just didn't notice how Tom suddenly summoned two poisonous snakes at this time.
Moreover, the poisonous snake happened to be able to help him block the enemy's magic attacks.
Serpensortia This magic, as Slytherin students who worship snakes, almost many people can do it.
Strictly speaking, this Charms is not Dark Magic. He is more like a special Summoning Charm that can summon some snakes in front of him. These snakes are made entirely of magic power and can also help them interfere with the enemy.
But the problem is that these summoned snakes only have the simplest intelligence. Under the influence of magic, they will be able to know who the enemy is and then attack the enemy.
It is absolutely impossible to ask them to help defend themselves.
This magic actually has a more flexible effect in the hands of Tom.
Because Slughorn was closer, he could still clearly see some details, that is, after summoning those poisonous snakes, Tom's lips moved slightly, and it seemed that he made some sound.
It was also under the influence of that voice that these summoned poisonous snakes gained higher intelligence.
The upper limit of this magic is actually not very high.
You know, no matter how you improve the effect of magic, it can only make the summoned snakes bigger. However, it seems that improving their wisdom is something that this magic alone cannot do.
However, there are exceptions. The magic itself was invented by some wizards who worshiped snakes.
As for the wizard who knows the most about snakes, how could there be one who is more familiar with snakes than Slytherin family.
People in that family also discovered that Parseltongue could easily control these summoned snakes, so that although Tom didn't know it, this magic actually only had some practical value in Gaunt family.
However, although he did not get the magic information of Gaunt family, he still discovered something.
That is, this magic seems to be a little different in his hands.
At least, the snake he summoned was much stronger in terms of spiritual intelligence.
Regarding these, he initially thought it was the effect of Parseltongue.
But soon, he got another answer from the little snake's mouth. The increase in spiritual intelligence was related to Parseltongue, but it was not absolutely related.
The main reason here is actually because of his Meditation snake.
According to Horned Serpent, when Tom cast this magic, Horned Serpent, who had a contract with Tom, could feel part of Tom's power being extracted and then entering the body of the poisonous snake.
After Tom checked it carefully, he discovered that it was the illusory snake Meditation that came out of his mind that extracted part of the power.
But this kind of extraction does no harm. Even after the magic ends and those little snakes dissipate, it can make the snake image in Meditation a little more solid.
But this kind of improvement is similar to Meditation. You cannot try it multiple times in a day, and it will have no effect.
Tom is also very interested in this magic.
After his research on Lumos hit a bottleneck, he spent a lot of energy studying this magic.
Now it seems that it is worth it...
Dawson's attack was blocked by the poisonous snake, but he didn't see it because he was wrapped in his cloak.
Those two snake-like ribbons, under Tom's Transfiguration, actually Transfiguration turned into poisonous snakes.
From a dead thing Transfiguration to a living thing, this Transfiguration Tom did it in the first grade. If Dumbledore saw it, he would definitely be impressed by his Transfiguration talent...
The snakes made of streamers Transfiguration wrapped themselves around Dawson's head after the robe enveloped it. They planned to wrap themselves around little by little, completely making Dawson lose its ability to resist.
Dawson's arms were entangled with snakes and he couldn't get the robe off his head.
Fortunately, he is not the kind of person who has no brains.
After feeling the continuous contraction of his arms, he realized that he needed to untie the restraints as soon as possible, otherwise there would really be no other way.
I don't know what kind of impact my Charms has on Tom. Is he already paralyzed on the ground due to blindness?
If he is lucky enough and plans to resist to the end, then he will have to witness it all with his own eyes.
So, he thought of a way, he pointed the hand holding the wand directly at the ground,
"Incendio!"
The wand released a ball of flame, which exploded directly under his feet. By accident, the snake wrapped around his arm also changed back into a streamer due to the burning of the flame, and then turned into ashes little by little.
However, he didn't notice that as the streamer burned, a lot of fine powder followed the flame and entered his nose.
Dawson ripped off the robe and cloak that had been burned.
He wanted to see for himself what Tom looked like.
The surrounding flames continued to burn, seeming to distort his surroundings.
Professor Slughorn, since the two streamers started burning, he has been staring at Dawson with a little interest in his eyes.
Able to hide psychedelic mushroom spores in the robe, he had never seen such an offensive robe.
Before, I just thought that the clothes on Tom were just beautiful, but now it seems that this is actually a complete set of combat logic.
I don't know how many of the other young wizards watching the battle are aware of the gold content in this.
If they understand the reason, even if they don't have the same style of robes, it would be a combat skill to sprinkle some Potions on their bodies in advance, and then use the robes to make traps to let Potions work...
The situation on the field seems to be clear.
Tom is going to win.
But Dawson didn't see it that way. He had entered a hallucinatory state due to inhaling too many psychedelic spores.
The Tom in his eyes was already rolling on the ground because of the pain that could not be seen and the needle pricks.
"Ah~~it hurts so much, I was wrong, help me..."
Tom's screams kept echoing in his ears, which also made him very happy.
He did not forget the flames around his body, "Aguamenti!"
He slowly summoned a big water ball, then extinguished all the flames accurately, and then said to the professor beside him, "I think we don't need to think about the outcome now..."
"I think there's no need to think about victory or defeat now..."
In reality, this sentence also sounded, but it was said by Tom.
As for Dawson, other Slytherin also averted their eyes in disgust at his miserable situation.
Due to the burning of the flames, many burnt spots appeared on his clothes, and at the same time, there were many blisters on his exposed body.
Also, because of his Aguamenti, he lost the stability of the Charms release in the hallucination.
As a result, a large basin of water was poured directly from his head. The flames were extinguished, but he was completely drowned.
First, he was charred due to the flames, and then a lot of water. He now looked like a homeless man.
Coupled with the smug look on his face now, it is even more unbearable.
Male Prefect couldn't let this kind of indecent behavior continue, "Professor, I think it's over~!"
"Oh, that's right..." Slughorn seemed to have just reacted, and then announced the final result, "Then I declare that Tom Riddle won the wizard duel through outstanding performance!"
As for himself, he came to Dawson, took out a bottle of Potions from his body and fed him.
It's not for treatment, losers don't deserve sympathy.
The function of this Potions is just to help him wake up and see how ugly he is...
