Harry Potter: From Muggle Cousin to Conceptual Wizard

Chapter 286 Werewolf Strength Test! Nagini in Hibernation!

Upon hearing this novel incantation, Lupin felt an inexplicable surge of anger and rage, and the tranquilizing spell he had previously cast on himself was instantly rendered ineffective.

Strangely, he was able to maintain his rationality amidst this anger, and at the same time, he could more flexibly mobilize his emotions and mental power to cast those black and white spells that required strong emotions to exert their power.

It's like... it's like the spell that Dali just cast on him was the reverse of the Tranquility Spell!

"Professor Lupin, are you still conscious?" Dudley asked, his magical energy subtly circulating.

Lupin quickly stopped thinking and replied, "Yes! I'm still conscious! I'm fine, Dali."

"It seems there shouldn't be any problems."

Dudley nodded slightly, then suddenly cast a spell, casting an Ironclad Charm energy shield around himself. "Professor Lupin, now, attack my shield with all your might. Let me see the limit of your attack power when you transform into a werewolf!"

"This...isn't that inappropriate?"

Lupin hesitated.

"It's not good for your claws, Professor Lupin, but it's a necessary test. Don't worry, if you're injured, I'll treat you!"

Dudley nodded in deep agreement, but what he said left Lupin's wolf head full of question marks.

"Should I be the one who's worried?" Lupin asked, puzzled.

"Otherwise, would it be me?"

Dudley's answer was swift and forceful, and he simultaneously unleashed his legendary wizard-level magical abilities, putting immense pressure on Lupin.

This pressure made Lupin instantly realize the gap between himself and Dali, and he stopped hesitating and agonizing.

His gaze sharpened, and with a sudden burst of power from his nimble wolf paws, he charged at Dali at incredible speed, violently slashing his claws and viciously grabbing Dali's Ironclad Charm Shield.

"Not bad! Its power is comparable to that of an elite professor-level power-enhancing spell, and it also has excellent armor-piercing properties."

Protected by the Ironclad Shield, Dudley used magic to test the attack power of Lupin's Wolf Claws and commented on it with great interest.

Lupin saw that his full-force claw strike only left a few white marks on Dudley's shield, and these marks quickly disappeared as the shield returned to its original state.

He immediately exclaimed in surprise, "Merlin's long fingernails! Dudley, your strength is actually this great? I..."

“Go on! I don’t like hearing boring compliments!” Dudley interrupted Lupin, adding, “Don’t just rely on the werewolf’s body, Professor Lupin. Don’t forget, you’re also a wizard!”

Upon hearing this, Lupin's eyes sharpened even more. He was good-tempered, but that didn't mean he didn't have a temper.

You have to understand, he was once involved with a delinquent youth group like the Raiders.

"Watch out, Dudley!"

After Lupin finished speaking, he began to launch an all-around attack on Dudley's shield with even more elusive and ghostly speed.

At the same time, his large wolf mouth began to mutter and mutter to himself.

It seemed as if he was chanting some kind of incantation, performing a spell without a staff.

Soon, the spell took effect. Lupin's relentlessly swinging wolf claws gained a metallic sheen, making his attacks even sharper and the marks he left on the shield deeper.

But for Dali, it's still far from enough.

Next, Lupin attacked Dudley's shield with a barrage of bites and kicks, adding various buffing spells.

Only when he was slightly out of breath from exhaustion did he stop attacking at Dali's request.

Subsequently, the roles of offense and defense were reversed.

Dudley used Lupin as a target, controlling the power of his spells and unleashing some non-lethal offensive spells that struck Lupin's scales.

The result was a pleasant surprise.

Lupin's scale armor, which he acquired through a stroke of luck, actually has quite good magic resistance.

According to Dudley's calculations, Lupin in his Scaled Werewolf form has about 70% to 80% of Hagrid's magic resistance, which is quite impressive.

Their attack power also surpasses that of ordinary professors, reaching the level of the four deans.

In addition to his swift movement and attack speed in werewolf form, Lupin, with a calculated attack and the opponent's surprise attack, even possesses the ability to solo kill a professor of the Dean's caliber.

Of course, this is just an assumption.

“Professor Lupin, you can try practicing the Power-Boosting Charm that Harry and I created. That spell suits your werewolf form very well.”

After the test, Dudley pointed out, "At the same time, there is still room for improvement in your staffless spellcasting ability."

"I understand! Thank you so much, Daddy!"

Although Lupin was somewhat frustrated by Dudley's formidable strength and overwhelming test results, he was still incredibly grateful to Dudley.

Dudley didn't say anything more to Lupin. He made up a reason and politely asked Lupin to leave the Room of Requirement.

Dudley did not grant Lupin a power blessing, nor did he fuse Lupin's wand to obtain the wandless spellcasting ability most suited to Lupin, and then transfer it to Lupin through touch.

He helped Lupin eliminate the side effects of wolfification, which was already a huge help to Lupin.

It would be impolite to offer any further benefits, or even to offer benefits at a loss.

So let Lupin practice on his own!

Having resolved Lupin's regrets, Dudley pondered for a while longer in the Room of Requirement before slipping away, heading straight for the window along the eighth-floor corridor, and flying out of the castle.

Then, flying swiftly over the snow-covered playground, passing through the fluttering snowflakes, they arrived at Hagrid's hut.

His main purpose this time was not to see Hagrid, who was engrossed in studying his lesson plans, but to see the giant snake Nagini.

He wanted to test the effect of the Energy Stealing Talisman on the Blood Curse on Nagini, and whether it would allow him to perfectly resolve another B-level regrettable incident today and gain two more B-level fusion opportunities.

"Dali, you've come to see me? Perfect timing, could you help me explain to the students how to teach the magical creature contract magic on the heart side?"

As soon as Dudley entered Hagrid's hut, Hagrid happily approached him with the lesson plans Dudley had prepared for him, seeking his advice.

“That’s not urgent, Hagrid. I’m here to see Nagini.”

Dali didn't waste any words and went straight to the point.

"Oh! You mean that very naughty snake! She hibernated! Before she hibernated, she ate two whole goats!"

Hagrid showed no displeasure, but instead vividly recounted Nagini's recent situation to Dalí.

Dudley hadn't considered that.

Dudley never expected that Nagini, a snake with magical properties, would retain the habit of hibernation.

No wonder he hasn't been able to sense Nagini's nonsense through the mental connection forged by the contract lately.

So they were fast asleep!

"Where is it now? I'm not afraid of it hibernating, I want to see it," Dali continued.

Whether Nagini hibernates or not does not affect his ability to use the power-stealing spell.

"I put her in a large, airy box. Right here!"

Hagrid walked directly to the east shelf inside the cabin and pulled out an oversized wooden box with handles and holes from the space at the bottom of the large wooden shelf.

Now that the interior space of the house has been expanded, there is even more room to hide things.
