Chapter 84: Professor Quirrell is good at raising pigs
Ted flew into the sky and began to chase and soar, releasing a "detection magic" every ten seconds to see which of these flying keys was the real one.

Ron on the ground also commanded his friends to "go to the battle seat" - there were some missing pieces on the chessboard and they were needed to fill in.

Ted searched intensively in the sky, breaking through a large number of flying keys to find the real one.

Then I heard ghosts howling below:

Harry: "Ron, it's coming!"

Ron: "Don't worry, it can't reach you!"

Jerry: "Ron, I'm about to die, don't sacrifice me, I still have use."

Neville: "Let me in! Let me do it!"

Hermione: "How about letting me take two steps forward?"

Ron: "Stop arguing, can you guys just be quiet for a while? My head is about to explode~"

It seems that chess pieces can talk, which is definitely not a good thing.

After about a minute, "Found it!"

After using detection magic, Ted suddenly discovered a hint of blue!
It is a flying key with a slightly different color and damaged wings.

You are the one!

Ted pressed the broom handle and rushed over at an accelerated speed, and the flying key also accelerated to escape.

He chases it, it runs, it can't escape even if it has wings~
At this time, the game on the ground has entered the endgame stage, and the opponent's queen has already reached the midfield.

Ron whispered to Jerry, "You will be in charge in a moment. Remember the following steps. There are only two steps in total. You do this, this, and that..."

Jerry was stunned: "Okay, wait, what about you?"

Ron asked loudly: "Remember?!"

"Remember." Jerry nodded subconsciously.

Ron rode on the stone horse, raised his wand and looked around, shouting: "Here is Ron Weasley's highlight moment! Forward! General~~~"

Ron, as a knight, made great progress and the opponent's queen had to return to the field to "eat" Ron to save the situation.

The other queen swung the stone chair under her and smashed it at the stone horse under Ron's crotch!
"Ron!" X4!

As soon as Ted caught the flying key, he heard Ron's glorious declaration.

Cast your magic now!

"Iron armor protection!"

"Shield added!"

Two protective spells were cast on Ron, and then the stone chair hit the stone horse's head.

With a sound of "bitter tea~", the stone horse shattered, gravel flew everywhere, and Ron was thrown several meters away and fell to the ground.

"Ron!" Jerry yelled and was about to rush over.

"Stop! Finish the game! Don't let Ron's sacrifice go to waste!" Neville's face turned red, and it looked like blood was dripping from his face and ears.

He held the sword and staff in his hand, roared loudly, and stared at the stone chess queen, looking like a young lion.

Jerry took the last two steps almost in tears, and he and Harley surrounded and killed the opponent's king.

The game ends when the stone crown falls from the king's head.

By this time Ted had helped Ron up. Although he was trembling, it was not because he was injured, but because he was scared and his legs were a little weak.

Although the slogans were shouted loudly, the sight of a stone chair being swung in front of one's face and the flying gravel was still very scary.

Fortunately, Ted practiced protective magic very often, and it worked very well, saving Ron intact. Not even a scratch on his skin~
Ron was quite critical of this: I finally managed to show off, and I didn't even get hurt, how can I brag about it when I get back? !

……

Later Ted learned that this level was set by Professor McGonagall.

She had been hesitating between Transfiguration Chess and Broomstick Quidditch, but finally decided "I want them all!"

So this level requires you to grab the key and win the magic chess.

The magic chess game won, and a keyhole appeared on the stone door on the wall. Ted inserted the key and turned it, and the door opened with a click.

Let go and the flying key will fly away.

Hallie was about to open the door and go in, but Ted stopped her with his hand.

"Wait!" He moved closer to the open door and took a sniff - a huge stinky smell!
Ted quickly covered his nose and retreated. It was too stinky!
Wait, this smells familiar.

Ted thought for a moment—a troll?
It seemed that Ted smelled this smell when the three monsters caused trouble in Hogwarts last time.

If it weren't for the Bubble Head Curse, the six of them wouldn't have been able to fight those three monsters - they would have been vomiting before the battle even started!
"There might be a giant monster in there!" said Ted.

“Troll?!” The friends were stunned. How could there be a troll here?
Ted explained, "You remember that Halloween thing?"

Of course I remember this, my friends all laughed - that was a glorious moment!

Ted asked, "How did the giant monster come from that time?"

No one else knew, but Hermione knew: "Professor Flitwick said this was Professor Quirrell's research subject?"

Ron was confused when he heard this: "Research...object? Why is Professor Quirrell studying trolls? Has his brain been sucked out by vampires?" Rumor has it that Professor Quirrell met a vampire in Africa, so he wears a braid of garlic under his turban, which smells like garlic~
Ted said, "As you know, I have always had private contact with Professor Quirrell."

"Although he taught Muggle Studies before and now teaches Defense Against the Dark Arts, his real expertise is in Magizoology, especially in the breeding of magical bloodlines. It's just that some of his research directions are not accepted by the public..."

Harley: "Like?"

"For example, a hybrid transformed giant monster!"

"Are you saying that the giant monster we met last time was raised by Professor Quirrell? Or was it modified?" Jerry's eyes widened.

"So, this is Professor Quirrell's level - and there's a giant monster inside?" Neville pointed at the stone door, a little nervous.

Although they have faced it once and won, they themselves know how tricky they were.

"Whatever happens? It's better to be prepared!"

Ted began to put shields on his friends, cast the Bubble Head Charm on them, and then cast invisibility spells on them one by one.

If his magic power had not reached level 6 (with the magic wand +1), his magic power would not be able to withstand such consumption.

General spells are fine, they don't consume much energy.

Combat magic such as Iron Armor, Shield, and Frost Armor consume a lot of energy.

Since the first level, Ted has released too much magic.

The friction sound of the stone door being pushed open was heard in the circular space that looked like a Colosseum.

The three monsters inside looked around curiously, only to see the door move but not anything coming in.

These three monsters arranged by Qi Luo all look very strange.

The first one was dark blue, its skin smooth like some deep sea fish, striped with silver and black plates, and it was reflective.

The second one was yellow-green in color, with skin covered with bumps and wart-like protrusions of various sizes, like a toad.

The third one was dark brown, and its skin was like rough stone, with sharp edges and corners, and looked very hard.

They are all over two meters and five feet tall, with very strong bodies, two thick arms hanging down past the knees, holding a huge hammer.

Their heads were not big, and surprisingly, they were different in shape. The first one looked a bit like a fish, with a protruding mouth. The second one had an oval head, and the third one had angular but irregular heads.

They all have one thing in common: they are fat!
It's particularly fat, with seven or eight wrinkles on the neck and belly~
A slight movement, and the fat all over the body trembles~
Ted identified them and found that they were all level 7 giant monsters/level 2 transformed magical creatures, and their names were Fish Skin Fat Giant, Crocodile Skin Fat Giant, and Salt Skin Fat Giant.

The Fish Skin Fat Monster has a talent [Fish Skin Slime (Green)], which increases magic resistance and has a chance to slide away from spells or physical attacks.

The talent of the crocodile-skinned fat monster is [Growing Thick Skin (Green)], which greatly reduces the physical damage it receives.

The Salt Skin Giant is the strongest. Its talent [Salt Skin (Green)] reduces magic and physical damage, and [Regeneration (Blue)] quickly recovers from injuries and can even regenerate broken limbs!
It seems that Professor Quirrell has made some achievements in blood transformation.

But why are all the monsters so fat? Why do they keep them so fat?
Ted was puzzled and could only conclude that Professor Quirrell was good at raising pigs.

These three pigs, no, these three transformed giant monsters are all very difficult to deal with.

If they really force it, even if Ted and the others can win, they will have to use up all their magic power here.

Besides, the probability of winning is not high.

The talents of these three giants have covered up the weakness of the back of the giant's head. It is impossible to take it down by trickery.

Did Professor Quirrell learn his lesson?!

Damn, not only are you making progress, the villain is also working hard!
……

Because they are all invisible and cannot see each other, everyone holds hands to avoid getting lost.

Then I heard Harley whisper, "Look at those guys' chests!"

When everyone looked closely, they found that each of the three giant monsters had a small metal pendant hanging in front of them, and there were three corresponding grooves on the door on the opposite wall.

"Strange! How did the mysterious man get through this?" Hermione asked puzzledly.

Yes, in the original novel, Richie Law knocked down the giant monster he had prepared, but that is obviously not the case now.

These giant monsters that Quirrell studied and transformed were under his instructions, so there was no need to defeat them.

Ted knew that it was Quirrell who was possessed by Voldemort, so it was not surprising.

The other friends couldn't understand how Voldemort could pass this level without defeating the troll.

But now there is no time to think about how Voldemort got there. The problem now is how they can get there.

These three giant monsters, who eat and sleep all the time and are fat and strong and raised by Professor Quirrell, are not easy to deal with.

If there was only one, Ted and his team could naturally take advantage of the troll's low IQ and copy the way they defeated the troll before.

But now that the number has reached three, it would be too risky to try this again.

Based on previous experience, except for Ted, the spells of other friends have almost no effect on these three giant monsters, and can only work on other objects to cause some restraining effect.

Only some of Ted's spells, such as the Cutting Spell, the Fire Spell, and "the ice spells he developed himself" have the effect of breaking defense.

But asking him to fight three alone, isn't that nonsense?
If it's just one, Ted will win no matter how hard he tries.

If there are two, try to restrict one of them, or set a trap, there is hope if you use some tricks.

But if there are three, it will be completely beyond our ability to deal with!
