Shadow trail of the beautiful world

Chapter 130 21. Arthur's Test 【53100】

Merlin took the children all the way into the sky, excited Ron and Hermione kept shouting higher, but Merlin supported them all the way up, and finally reached a height of nearly 4500 meters, where the thin air and freezing temperature , almost suffocating the two silly children.

Merlin took them all the way to experience the feeling of "free fall from high altitude".

They were terrified by the feeling of falling all the way from a high altitude, but after landing safely, they felt a different kind of excitement in their hearts.

The result of this adventure is that the two children are now limp all over, unable to lift any strength at all.

"The feeling of riding a broom is really different from flying freely."

Hermione looked at the sky with a hint of longing, she said:

"I must learn the Flying Curse in the future. Flying on a broomstick is really inferior."

"You haven't seen the scenery beyond the atmosphere."

Merlin leaned back on the chair and said to the two children:

"Among the vastness of the stars, there is silence. Look up and it's as if you are alone with the stars. The whole world becomes small. You are beyond the constraints of the world. That is true freedom...experienced Once, you lose all interest in the land."

"Have you seen it? Merlin."

Ron said to Merlin:

"Have you ever been outside the Earth?"

"Ah."

Merlin nodded:

"Just a few months ago, we had a fight with a group of aliens outside the earth..."

"I know I know!"

Hermione finished drinking the ginger soup and her body warmed up a bit. She said to Merlin:

"The "Daily Prophet" reported that a group of alien visitors had clashed with Muggle civilization. Those aliens planned to destroy the earth and dropped destructive weapons on the ground. Several weapons were in the When it fell off the coast of Europe, it was collected by the Ministry of Magic. It is said that it has been destroyed now. At that time, the Ministry of Magic held an emergency meeting..."

Ron also said:

"I heard from my father that the meeting of the Ministry of Magic is said to be to mobilize the great wizards. At the worst time, they will come forward to help the Muggle civilization. Principal Dumbledore also went to the meeting site."

"is it?"

Merlin became interested. He thought that the Kree invasion was not known to others, but now it seems that the seemingly isolated wizards are also secretly observing the human world.

And listening to Ren's description, at the worst moment, these wizards will come forward to try to save the world.

"What Ron said is true, Mr. Merlin."

A burst of green sparks shot out from the fireplace in front of the three of them. While the flames were beating, Mr. Arthur and a fat lady appeared in front of Merlin.

The lady was wearing a crimson sweater and had golden-red hair cut into slightly curled bangs in front of her forehead.She is no longer young, but when she smiles, she is very friendly. This is a lady with a very maternal radiance.

"Ah, you must be Mr. Merlin."

The lady stepped forward, looked at Merlin's delicate face, and said to Merlin:

"What a handsome lad. If my Ron grows up to be as handsome as you, I'll be really relieved."

She held out her hand to Merlin, smiled and said:

"I'm Molly Weasley, Ron's mother."

"Hello, Mrs. Mollie."

Merlin also stretched out his hand politely, and shook hands with Ms. Molly. He said to Madam Molly:

"Mr. Arthur and Hermione often mentioned you. They said that you were an excellent wizard and the best wife and mother in the world."

"It's ridiculous."

Molly looked very pleased with Merlin's compliment, and she turned and patted Hermione's hair, saying:

"Cute little Hermione is the best talker, much better than stupid Ron."

"mom!"

Ron was a little upset, and he yelled to his mother:

"Don't embarrass me in front of my new friends, okay?"

"Okay okay, young people grow up and yell at their mothers all the time, I'm used to it."

Molly glared at her son, she turned to Merlin and said:

"Let's stay for dinner tonight, little Merlin, I'll make some stew, you will definitely like it."

After finishing speaking, the lady skillfully put on her apron and went into the kitchen to get busy, while Hermione waved to Merlin and also went to help in the kitchen.

"Ron, aren't you going to help your mother prepare dinner?"

Mr. Arthur took off his coat and hung it on the hanger in the slightly narrow living room. He said something to Ron, and the latter walked to the kitchen sullenly.

It seemed that the gentle Mr. Arthur was also a strong father in his own family.

Only Merlin and Mr. Arthur were left in the living room. Merlin picked up the water glass and took a sip of water. He looked at Arthur, and he knew that this was not a coincidence.

Mr. Arthur may have to talk to him about something that needs to be kept private and kept away from the children.

Mr. Arthur with thinning hair sat on the old sofa next to Merlin. He was silent for a moment, and then said:

"I need your help with something, Merlin."

"As long as I can."

Merlin didn't hesitate too much, he said to Arthur:

"I'll do my best."

"I must tell you frankly, Merlin, this behavior is risky, and you can choose to refuse. We can find other people."

Arthur said:

"I won't blame you."

"Do not."

Merlin shook his head, he said seriously:

"I always repay my kindness. You and Hermione have helped me a lot. It can even be said that I saved my life. If I can help, I cannot refuse your request."

"it is good."

Mr. Arthur patted Merlin on the shoulder and said:

"But before I tell you, I have to test your strength, Merlin...I have to make sure you can protect yourself. I don't want you to die."

"Okay."

Merlin moved his fingers, and he said to Arthur:

"I also want to see how the official wizards fight. Shall we go outside?"

"basement."

Arthur stood up and waved to Merlin:

"This house is not as simple as it looks to you, come with me."

"Snapped"

In the darkness, with a flick of the wand in Mr. Arthur's hand, the dark basement was lit with light.The size of this basement is huge, almost half the size of a football field, and there are runes around it, which means that it has been reinforced.

"I will attack you in various ways, Merlin."

The tip of the wand in Mr. Arthur's hand was wrapped with a golden light, and he said to Merlin seriously:

"When you can't stop it, stop it."

After taking off his jacket, Merlin, who was wearing a suit vest and shirt, unbuttoned his sleeves. He took out the wand Lola from the long wooden box at his waist and held it in his palm. A dark red light spot danced on the top of the wand. .

He took off his rimless glasses, and with the embers in his eyes dancing in the light, he said to Mr. Arthur:

"My fighting style may be different from that of a wizard. In short, the fighting is fierce, and I may not be able to control it..."

"Haha, just come on."

Arthur moved his shoulders and said eagerly:

"Little wizard who has taught himself for 3 years, your tone is really loud."

"Ok."

Merlin held his wand. He and Mr. Arthur bowed to each other first, which is the etiquette before a wizard's duel.

When Merlin raised his head, Mr. Arthur's wand on the opposite side pointed down, and a green light shot towards Merlin.

"Stupefy! (Sleeping Curse)"

"Swish"

Seeing that the green light was about to touch Merlin, the latter's figure suddenly dissipated under the light, and the green light shot into the sky amidst the billowing black smoke.

This scene also surprised Arthur. He suddenly thought that Merlin had another identity besides the little wizard...

A demon walker.

He suddenly regretted that at the gathering of the Order of the Phoenix, he rashly proposed to Dumbledore to let Hermione's friend Merlin to protect Harry...

Dumbledore is an old-school wizard who has an aversion to all things demons and devils.

But it's too late to regret now.

The mist of Merlin's incarnation quickly manifested in another direction, and with the waving of the wand Lola, a spell precisely hit Arthur's wrist.

"Expelliarmus! (Disarming Curse)"

The wand in Arthur's hand jumped and flew towards Merlin. At the same time, Merlin's avatar of black mist also rushed towards Arthur.

Before Arthur's eyes, a palm emerged from the black mist and grabbed his neck.

"Disapparation! (Disapparation spell)"

Arthur chanted the spell silently. As an official wizard, he must have mastered the technique of casting spells without a wand.

Just before Merlin's palm was about to touch Arthur, Arthur's figure suddenly distorted, as if disappearing out of thin air, and when he reappeared, he was already standing only 5 meters away from Merlin. The flying wand was in his hand again.

"Wingardium Leviosa! (Levitation Curse)"

Arthur's wrist flipped, and invisible magic power spread out, lifting the heavy rocks around the basement one after another, and then with the swing of the wand, those heavy rocks smashed to where Merlin was.

This wave of attacks was full of momentum. Although the heavy stones thrown from all directions could not hurt the smoky Merlin, they blocked his sight and forced him to shift his figure.

"Protego! (Amulet)"

During this process, Arthur stood on the spot, his wand first tapped on his arm, covering his whole body with a shield composed of a layer of magic power.Then the wand swung forward, and it was pointing at the billowing black mist rushing from the sky.

"Impedimento! (Impedimento)"

The huge magic power of the official wizard gushed out from the top of the wand, and a solid and invisible barrier filled the air, blocking Merlin in front.

"Fubute Ubcabtaten! (Stopping Curse)"

Merlin manifested his arm in the black mist, holding the wand and waving it downward. The dark red force impacted on the invisible barrier, like some kind of dissolving force, dissolving and eliminating the obstacle spell.

Scorching sparks were brought out from the billowing black mist, and soon formed a scorching flame in the mist. Obviously, Merlin began to use the power of fire control from Morris, intending to knock Arthur down with this blow.

But he was slow.

Official wizards cast spells extremely fast. Almost in the blink of an eye, a ball of dazzling flames erupted from the top of Arthur's raised wand, like a jet of fire, completely covering the rolling black mist in front of him.

"Incendio! (Fierffire Curse)"

The turbulent flames rushed towards the face, almost sealing off all the space below the basement. Merlin's changing black smoke had nowhere to hide and could only crash into the flames.

Merlin thought it would be very hot and uncomfortable, but unexpectedly, after adding the flames, he didn't feel any burning or pain.

It was as if the flame of magic couldn't hurt him at all.

At this time, a few months ago, the warning from the half-demon Daemon appeared in his heart.

"Every trace of power distributed by the third house has its own characteristics. You think you have mastered Morris's power, but you have not discovered the true characteristics of that power."

"So it is!"

At this moment, Merlin, who was unharmed by the flames, finally understood the meaning of the half-demon... The feature blessed in Morris' power fragments is not brute force at all!

Brute force is only superficial, and the real ability given to Morris by Sangongmo is fire control... the most basic ability of the devil!

"I see!"

Merlin billowed black smoke, and he spun quickly in the air, absorbing all the flames of the Fiercefire Curse thrown by Arthur, turning the smoke he incarnated into a burning flame tornado.

At the next moment, under Arthur's surprised gaze, Merlin's black smoke formed a ferocious monster head in the air. He opened his mouth, and even hotter demonized flames sprayed towards Arthur like a pillar of fire.

The latter's magic shield blocked the scorching flames, but the shield was rapidly being weakened.

With a turn of Arthur's wand, the whole person disappeared from the scene again through the apparition, but just as he emerged from the apparition, the wand in Merlin's hand also threw the last spell.

"Reducto! (Shattering Curse)"

"boom"

Arthur's whole body was hit by the Shattering Curse, and the magic shield on his body was completely shattered. The accompanying impact knocked Arthur into the air and stuck him against the wall, while the billowing black smoke from Merlin's incarnation carried burning embers Mars is coming straight ahead.

Seeing that he was about to lose, Arthur flicked his wrist outwards, throwing out his last two spells with all his might.

"Colloportus! (Confinement Curse)"

"Crucio! (Crucio Curse)"

Merlin's black mist was imprisoned in the air by invisible magic power. Although he defeated the imprisoned magic power with a magic shock the next moment, he couldn't dodge the second shot of magic.

That green light covered Merlin's mist. At this moment, an unbearable pain burst out from every corner of Merlin's body.It's like thousands of knives are cutting out the heart.

This magic!

Weird!

Merlin's avatar of black mist surged crazily in mid-air, but he couldn't escape the piercing magic erosion. The pain was unbearable, and even people like Merlin who had experienced real suffering were powerless to stop it.

Moreover, the magic that Arthur threw was not recorded in those textbooks at all...

Heck!

This must be a truly offensive spell that only official wizards can use.

"Enough! Arthur, you're crazy!"

Just when Merlin endured the pain and was about to launch a magic explosion to knock Arthur out completely, a soft shout sounded at the entrance of the basement.

Mrs. Molly rushed in screaming and snatched the wand from Arthur's hand.

Behind her, the two children also looked at Mr. Arthur in a panic and Merlin who walked out of the black mist in surprise.

They don't know what happened yet.

"You played well, Merlin, I was a little too aggressive just now."

Arthur shrugged, and he said to Merlin with a trace of apology:

"you win."

Merlin didn't care about this, he frowned, rubbed his shoulders and asked:

"What was that magic...?"
