"Okay!" Ms. Maxim immediately waved her wand.
The valley was covered with a layer of white mist, and the giants in the distance gradually became looming.
But the next second, a strong wind blew by, and the fog immediately became much lighter. At the same time, they heard a frustrated voice shouting.
"What are you guys still standing there for? Go and help!"
Some giants ran over here immediately.
Kyle next to him was stunned for a moment, then quickly took out a round bead from the deformed lizard skin bag and crushed it hard.
The churning white fog spurted out from the broken beads, covering the entire valley in a few seconds. The whole world seemed to lose its color in an instant, much faster than Ms. Maxim.
And this fog... the wind never blows away.
"Oh...what is this?" Newt blinked, a little unresponsive.
He was already prepared for a protracted war, but he didn't expect that in just the blink of an eye, Kyle would bring him such a big surprise.
The giants' sense of direction was not very good to begin with, and this level of thick fog was enough to make them lose their bearings.
"Ah, the Mist Orb, I bought it from Hogsmeade." Kyle said, "It's a pity that this is the last one. I don't know if there are any new ones in the Devisbans store."
"If you have any, you can buy more." Newt said. He took a deep breath and quickly found the direction of the giant's horse by smell.
"Okay, now you'd better stay away."
"Wait a minute." Kyle interrupted him and asked in a low voice, "Can you let me come?"
"What do you mean?"
"Just leave this giant to me." Kyle said, "Since you are adapting to the war in advance, you can't just do nothing."
"No, this is a giant, you don't have enough experience..."
Before Newt could finish his words, Kyle waved his wand.
The stone on the ground turned into a spear and thrust forward suddenly.
Then the spear seemed to hit something, making a dull sound.
"Roar!"
A roar came from not far away.
"Close your ears and listen!"
In order to prevent the giant from finding this place through sound, Kyle once again used a magic spell.
Listening to the mantra with closed earplugs can fill the ears of people outside a certain range with an indiscernible buzzing sound.
Kyle had tried it before when he was bored. This spell was equally useful to Norbert, because it was not a direct attack spell, but an artificially created environment, just like the fog spell, except that it targeted hearing.
Therefore, the scales of the fire dragon have no effect at all, and presumably the same is true for the giant.
I have to say that this anti-eavesdropping spell is perfect for use with the Mist Orb.
At this time, Newt did not object anymore. He looked at Kyle and asked, "What are you going to do?"
"The best choice is of course the Fire Curse." Kyle said casually: "When dealing with magical animals, this curse is even more effective than the Death Curse."
Even Newt had to admit that Kyle was right.
For some huge magical animals, the effect of the Death Curse is actually not particularly powerful... Even the dark wizard decades ago or Dumbledore cannot directly kill an adult with a spell. Fire dragon.
Not to mention Kyle, who is not yet seventeen years old.
But Li Huo is different...
The monster Li Huo mimics will continue to strengthen over time, and there is no upper limit. As long as there is enough time, it can even easily devour the giants in the entire valley.
"If you can help it, I'm not suggesting you do it."
Newt said, "After all, Fiendfyre is a dark magic. Using it too many times is not a good thing. It will make you addicted to its powerful destructive power without you realizing it, until one day, you will find that you can no longer control it.
"Of course, if the situation is critical, it's a different matter."
"I know." Kyle nodded, "So I have another plan."
He looked up and saw the giant's figure looming in the thick fog.
"Collapse!"
Kyle waved the wand tentatively, and without any accident, the stun spell bounced off the giant after it hit it.
Their skin is as hard as a rock... no, literally harder than a rock.
However, this move also angered the giant. He noticed Kyle's position and swung the long-handled ax in his hand with the roar of the wind, hitting Kyle less than a foot in front of him.
Kyle backed away while trying other magic.
But whether it was a repelling spell, a cutting spell, a blasting spell, or the more powerful Divine Edge Shadow, all were useless.
The divine sharp edge Wuying, who could easily cut through the stone, only made the giant cry out in pain, and then the other party continued to swing the long-handled ax in his hand as if nothing happened.
Of course, this may also be related to Kyle not finding a suitable position... But there is no way, the surrounding white mist not only restricted the giant, but also restricted Kyle.
He could only barely see the rough outline of the giant, and he couldn't accurately find the weak parts of the opponent's body.
"Thunderbolt explosion!"
After casting another blasting spell, Kyle looked at the giant who was still unharmed and gasped for air.
After a 20-minute stalemate, Kyle found that he seemed unable to break through the giant's defense at all. On the contrary, he was somewhat broken.
He had thought that the giant might be very hard, but he didn't expect it to be so hard. It seemed that no matter what spells were cast on him, it would have no effect.
The giant seemed a little bored, roaring and waving the ax in his hand, as if he was driving away some annoying insect.
Kyle didn't add any more earplugs to listen to the spell this time, mainly because he didn't know where he was now after the battle. He only knew that he had been following the giant in a stalemate for twenty minutes, and he was probably far away from his previous position.
At this moment, a creature that looked like a fluffy Quaffle suddenly jumped out of the fog onto Kyle's shoulder, and then Newt appeared.
"How do you feel..." he asked a little amusedly: "This is the first time he has seen Kyle look deflated, which is quite interesting."
"This guy is just like a mountain." Kyle took a few more breaths, "How on earth was the giant defeated in the last war."
"Mainly relying on dragging," Newt said. "Most of the giants were led to an uninhabited mountain range at the beginning, much larger than here. They didn't come out until three years after the war ended."
"What about the remaining giants..." Kyle asked: "I remember that there are giants in the records. Was it Professor Dumbledore who killed them?"
"No." Newt shook his head, "If I remember correctly, they should be a group of stone statues."
"Stone statue?"
"Well, a group of stone statues who are also not afraid of curses and are extremely powerful." Newt said, "When the giants were about to arrive in Hogsmeade, they suddenly appeared and surrounded and killed the giants outside the village."
"Are they the ones in school?" Kyle remembered that there was a magic that could drive the stone statues in Hogwarts, but only a few professors could use it.
"It should be. Anyway, people who have seen those stone statues say they look familiar."
"Okay." Newt turned around and said, "The fog is about to clear. Leave the rest to me. We must solve it as soon as possible, otherwise it will be more troublesome when the fog clears."
"Give me another three minutes, just three minutes." Kyle said, "I just wanted to test the giant's strength before. It's not that I really can't defeat him."
"You want to use fierce fire?" Newt raised his eyebrows.
"No, I have another way."
"Okay then." Newt glanced at the thinning white fog around him, "Just three minutes, and I will take over immediately after that."
"no problem."
Kyle immediately took out the box and reminded: "Remember to close your eyes, or just walk away."
"Couldn't you..." The corner of Newt's mouth twitched.
But before he could finish his words, he saw a scaly head sticking out of the box, and Newt quickly looked away.
The giant Gu Ge Gao Gaoma also seemed to sense some kind of threat and began to swing the ax in his hand harder.
"Go on, it's time for you to do some exercise!"
After receiving Kyle's order, the basilisk rushed out.
At the same time, Kyle stretched out his wand.
"Wingardim Leviosa!"
The tall ax suddenly stopped in mid-air, and he subconsciously wanted to reach out to grab it, but Kyle had already controlled the ax to fly farther away.
While Gao Gaoma was distracted, the basilisk had already arrived at his feet and bit his calf directly.
Kyle's helpless skin was like tofu in front of the basilisk's fangs, easily penetrated.
Gao Gaoma screamed and began to smash the basilisk's body with his fists. The venom that was extremely deadly to wizards seemed to only slow down his movements a little.
The heavy hammer-like fist fell on the body, causing the basilisk to scream in pain. It released its mouth, quickly wrapped around the giant's body and climbed up, while constantly exerting force.
The fifty-foot-long basilisk, even though Gao Gaoma was the giant leader, could not easily break free. He subconsciously lowered his head and tried to tear the basilisk off his body.
But when he lowered his head, he happened to meet a pair of yellow eyes.
For a moment, Gao Gaoma's movements froze.
The white mist was getting lighter and lighter, and even Kyle, who was standing further away, could clearly see that Gaogao Ma's feet gradually turned into a grayish white color, and spread all the way to the ankles.
"Is this gone?"
Kyle was a little unbelievable. When he saw the basilisk's gaze from the front, only one pair of feet were petrified...and they were not really petrified, because he could still move, but much slower than before. Even those gray-white areas were After reaching the ankle, it stopped.
"This is too unreasonable." Kyle was a little helpless. Although he had thought about this result, he was still a little shocked by the giant's rough skin and thick flesh.
This guy is simply a natural human shield. As long as they stand in a row, they are the strongest line of defense.
No wonder both Dumbledore and Voldemort wanted to recruit giants, they were simply born war machines.
There is one last trick, if that doesn't work, you can only use Li Huo.
Kyle let out a breath and held out his wand.
Magic words floated out from the tip of the staff one by one.
The surroundings seemed to suddenly become hot, and little bits of flames appeared out of thin air, flying around Kyle.
These flames continued to gather together and turned into a sea of flames, rushing and surging around Kyle.
The scorching sea of fire seemed to have dispersed even the dense fog, and the surroundings gradually became clearer.
