Chapter 210 A real slap in the face

Lockhart really never forgot his own image. He pinched his waist with one hand and held his wand in front of him, pointing upwards. This was obviously an action that only an amateur would make, and it had no use other than to look cool.

Hermione's spell-casting movements are standard, without so many bells and whistles.

Seeing that the two of them were ready, Snape said: "Okay, after I count one, two, and three, you can cast the spell."

"one"

"two"

"three"

"Expelliarmus!"

When a general wizard casts a spell, in addition to having to recite a spell, there are also standard movements for waving the wand. Hermione's reaction was very fast. When Snape counted to three, he stretched the wand forward and waved quickly and clearly.

The magic spell was recited.

The next moment, a burst of magic was emitted, and Lockhart had just finished reading the beginning when he was hit by Hermione's magic.

Hermione also had some ulterior motives. She did not aim at Lockhart's wand at all, but aimed it at Lockhart's chest.

If Expelliarmus fails to hit the weapon, it can also repel or even knock away the enemy. The effect depends on how much magic the caster applies.

After being hit, Lockhart couldn't help but scream in surprise, and then flew backwards, flying several meters before landing on his butt again.

"Well, it's very standard." Locke nodded and gave Hermione a thumbs up in his heart. It was obvious that this was Hermione's intention.

Lockhart was suddenly hit, and he was a little confused. He was obviously just a junior wizard, how could he cast spells so quickly?

And his appearance also made the students around him laugh. They didn't know who started it first. The next moment, all the students burst into laughter, and there was a joyful atmosphere around him.

At this time, Lockhart came back to his senses, stood up quickly, and said loudly: "Okay, everyone, be quiet!"

No matter what, students always have to give Lockhart, as a teacher, some face. The laughter finally stopped. Lockhart is indeed a smart man, and he quickly found the reason:

"Attention everyone, let me explain first that I didn't react just now because Miss Granger cast the spell wrong and she did not hit my wand.

Obviously she was trying to gain time, so she made a mistake when casting the spell. The spell attacked my body, not my wand, and because of this, I didn't guard against it."

Lockhart's defense seemed to be reasonable, and some people believed that he was just careless, but Snape would not let him pass so easily. At this time, he took the opportunity and said:

"You are right. Since the demonstration just now was wrong, let's do it again. Miss Granger, please be careful this time and be sure to aim your opponent's weapon!"

Snape added an accent to the weapon, and similarly, some students who did not believe Lockhart's sophistry also shouted: "Yes, we want to see a standard demonstration!"

This situation made Lockhart feel a little embarrassed, and the smile he was holding on became even stiffer. Then he seemed to think of something, rolled his eyes, and said calmly: "No problem, Miss Granger's movements are actually very...

It’s easy to see through, I was just caught off guard just now.”

"Very good, then please prepare again." Snape said loudly without changing his expression.

When the two stood still again, Lockhart looked at Hermione and said: "Miss Granger, please pay attention to the key points and aim your opponent's wand. Don't make the same mistake again."

Hermione ignored the other party and still performed the same movements as before, but this time Lockhart was much more cautious and performed standard movements in a decent manner.

Snape also started counting.

"one"

"two"

"Expelliarmus!"

"three"

Snape had just finished counting two, and had just opened his mouth after counting three, when Rohot suddenly took a step forward, waved his wand and fired a spell, which was also aimed at Hermione's body.

This is actually considered a foul early, but because the time difference is only a few tenths of a second, it is easy to fool him if you get entangled in detail. Apparently Lockhart found that Hermione was very proficient in spells, so he chose to steal the chicken.

As the referee, Snape couldn't help but frown at this time. He didn't expect Lockhart to be so shameless. In fact, for Lockhart, after what happened just now, he had no shame at all.

Normal wizards would basically fall for this kind of sneak attacks, but Hermione was different. When Locke and her simulated battles, Hermione always relied on actual combat. Even Locke himself would make 'sneak attacks' from time to time, which also made Locke himself

Hermione learned to observe the subtle movements of her opponents.

Hermione had long noticed that something was wrong in Lockhart's eyes, and she was on guard. She immediately moved the wand held in front of her, and used it to block Lockhart's sudden attack.

But because the wand was hit by magic, the wand fell out of his hand.

Seeing that Lockhart, as a professor, was shamelessly committing a flagrant foul, a trace of irritation flashed across Hermione's little face, and she actually performed beyond her level, successfully casting the wandless spell that she had struggled to use before.

I saw Hermione quickly reciting the summoning spell, pulling the wand back from mid-air and holding it again, then pointed the wand at Lockhart who looked surprised, and fired another Expelliarmus, and also

Aimed directly at Professor Lockhart's face.

"What a slap in the face!"

"Bang!" Lockhart seemed to have been slapped in the face out of thin air, and flew backwards again. Even his screams were suppressed in his throat because of the hit to the face.

"Flying in the air!" Before Lockhart fell to the ground, Hermione swung her wand again, and another spell hit Lockhart, causing him to suddenly rise into the air, and then just like that in mid-air.

It turned like a windmill.

Still feeling uneasy, Hermione chanted Expelliarmus several times in succession and slapped her face one after another, and then she put away her wand in relief.

After a while, the effect of flying in the air dissipated, and Lockhart flipped and fell to the stage. For a while, he was unable to even get up.

Glancing at the extremely embarrassed Lockhart, Locke knew that this kind of thing could be big or small. If Lockhart was petty, he would be investigated. If Hermione maliciously teased the professor, Hermione, an ordinary student, would definitely be punished.

"Sorry, I still have something to do and I have to take Hermione away." Locke said this, glanced at Snape, who had a raised corner of his mouth, gave him a roll of his eyes, and went up to the stage to grab Hermione.

, and planned to take her to have a breather with Dumbledore first.

Before Locke and Hermione left the room, they heard a sudden roar of laughter behind them. Locke took Hermione's hand and said to her:

"The flying spell that was cast without a staff just now was done well. If you practice more in the future, you should be able to cast it freely without a staff."

Seeing that Locke didn't seem to blame her, Hermione, who was still a little scared, immediately relaxed, a happy smile appeared on her face, and she said happily: "I can do it, teacher!"
