Chapter 136 Rapier

"A rapier?!"

While casting the obstacle spell, James said absurdly: "Now is not the time to care about those antiques, and don't you have no interest in these two silverwares at all?"

"Of course not for this reason!"

Sirius quickly ducked sideways. After casting the petrification spell again, his armored body froze for a moment. Only then did he have time to continue shouting: "I mean, take out the rapier, and then we'll do it again." Use them against these damn armors!”

"Are you kidding?" James asked dumbfounded: "We are not living in the Middle Ages, and I don't think these armors will mistake us for Gryffindors, even if we hold a long sword in our hands. .”

"Duel Room!"

Sirius shouted: "Haven't you noticed? This is obviously a duel room! It's specially used for duels!"

"But these two suits of armor don't have wands in their hands, but only a long sword!"

Seeing that James didn't seem to understand what he meant, Sirius could only continue to shout anxiously: "They are Muggles!"

"These two pieces of armor are just Muggles in front of us!"

"Gryffindor never uses a wand when fighting Muggles, because that's unfair! He only fights with a sword! This can prove his worth, courage, and challenge himself!"

"That's what a true Gryffindor does!"

"Those two rapiers are the key! We must use them to fight!"

James figured it out immediately. Looking for an opportunity, he pulled out the two thin swords and threw another one towards Sirius.

"Catch it!" he yelled.

Sirius quickly cast a levitating spell, which allowed him to successfully catch the rapier.

"Damn! These two swords are too heavy for us!"

After swinging it twice with great effort, Sirius put the rapier down again.

"Use the disarming spell first! Get rid of the armor's weapons!"

He commanded loudly: "Only in this way can we have a chance to attack these armors instead of being cut in half by them!"

The two of them were dragging a thin sword in each hand. While dodging back and forth, they cast disarming spells one after another, knocking away the long swords in the armor's hands.

"Quick! Cut it off first... cut off its joints first! At least remove the arms!"

As Sirius said this, he used his rapier to hit the armor who was slowly trying to pick up the sword.

After a violent collision, the arm of the armor was finally chopped off.

Sirius and James were both stunned. They looked at each other silently, and then smiled in surprise at the same time.

efficient!

Then they waved their long thin swords vigorously, and within a short time, the two pieces of armor fell off into individual parts, scattered on the carpet.

"it is finally over."

James breathed a sigh of relief and leaned back weakly on the carpet.Compared to Sirius, his body was much thinner and his strength was much less.

"It's yours, man."

He couldn't help but admire, and then complained quite a bit: "In that case, Gryffindor should also write the spirit of chivalry on the stone door. We wasted so long in vain, and even almost died." "

"Maybe he did it on purpose."

Sirius was also slumped on the carpet, staring at a motionless face armor.After reaching out and taking it, he held it in front of himself and looked at it carefully.

"After all, we still used the wand, and no matter how noble Gryffindor is, he has threatened to take the lives of those goblins - because of the ownership of Gryffindor's sword."

"Perhaps, although chivalry is important, it is not something that needs to be observed at all times when facing any creature."

"Like goblins."

After thinking about it, Sirius added: "Maybe also house elves, I have one at home."

"Cool." James praised.

"It's not as good as you think." Sirius shook his head: "Especially in a pure-blood supremacist family, even a house elf will become less obedient."

"correct."

After a brief chat, Sirius suddenly smiled and said, "You saved my life. It was really dangerous just now."

"I will not refuse your reward."

James also smiled and replied: "Two Nimbus 1001s are good. My father has promised to secretly buy five for me. This is the most money he can use without being discovered by my mother."

"piece of cake."

Sirius said nonchalantly: "You don't have to wait until next Christmas. This can be done during the holidays."

After seeing James' curious eyes, he lazily said: "I have a younger brother who will come to Hogwarts next year. Our family always has to go to Diagon Alley for this. This is tradition."

"You have a younger brother?" James asked in surprise, "Then why have you never mentioned this?"

Sirius made a quotation mark gesture with his hands: "Because [they] are all the same, they only believe in that boring pure-blood doctrine. Even he might as well be like this."

He shook his head again.

"Regulus is too weak, too weak to be a [Black]."

James patted his shoulder sympathetically: "It's really not easy for you."

Sirius smiled indifferently: "It's not a big deal, at least I will resist to the end."

After resting enough, the two stood up again.

Sirius stared at the armor parts that fell on the floor, his expression suddenly became a little weird.

"Do you think the armors in the castle are also this kind of thing?"

James was stunned for a moment.

"You mean, the ones we secretly pushed down? On the night we happened to meet Steve?" The expression on his face suddenly became a little exciting.

"Maybe, it's more than just that."

Sirius replied, the corner of his mouth twitching involuntarily.

The two looked at each other silently, and they simultaneously thought of the number of armors lined up in the corridor.

"It's better to avoid them when you go out at night in the future." James said.

Sirius nodded: "Your invisibility cloak, you have the final say."

The two of them bumped their fists and made this decision tacitly.

Then, Sirius suggested: "Let's continue holding these two rapiers. The next room may be the same."

James nodded, looked back and forth, and suddenly asked in confusion: "But why two? There also happen to be two pairs of armor? Is there such a coincidence?"

Sirius frowned and stared at the thin sword in his hand. After looking at it very carefully for a while, he pointed at the horizontal stripes at the bottom of the hilt and asked, "Look, there seems to be a pattern here."

James looked over immediately, and then turned to look at the thin sword in his hand.

"There is indeed a pattern." He said with incomprehensible eyes.

The two looked at each other again and frowned at the same time.

They had just seen these two patterns.

The one in James' hand is a lion.

The one in Sirius' hand was a long snake.
