Chapter 396: Les: I Feel Like This Is Cheating

Chapter 396 Les: I feel like this is cheating...

Domain!

In Cedric's cognition, it is a very sacred ability. He did not expect that it would appear on a seemingly ordinary doll. This made him quite surprised.

However, considering that this was something in the teacher's cabinet, he was relieved again. After being associated with the ancient name of Hufflepuff, everything seemed to become reasonable.

However, thinking of the fierce blood in the doll's eyes, Cedric felt that it was unlikely to be the teacher's collection. If you insist, it is more like a prisoner imprisoned by the teacher.

Thinking of this, Cedric couldn't help but complain about his teacher: Such a deadly thing, your storage method is too perfunctory, isn't it?

But on second thought, Cedric realized it again.

The teacher is extremely powerful, where else is safer than her office? This monster is probably safer in her office than in the vault at the bottom of Gringotts?

It's a pity that she met a group of students with too strong curiosity. Cedric didn't put the blame on Daphne, because he knew very well that he also wanted to know what was in the cabinet at that time, and Daphne just did what everyone present wanted to do.

And maybe in the eyes of the teacher, this doll didn't have anything special, so she put it in the cabinet carelessly and didn't set up a complicated protective spell.

Helga had taught Cedric the difference between the strength and weakness and the restraint relationship between the domains, so Cedric also understood that the doll in front of him, which was related to the domain and the soil, was just a lamb to be slaughtered in front of the teacher.

But for Helga, the doll was meat on the chopping board, and for Cedric and others, this guy was a well-deserved rival.

Cedric could feel that he was losing control of the soil - the doll's ability to manipulate the soil was better than his.

"Daphne, help me!" The teacher had told him before that Daphne had also half a foot in the domain gate, so Cedric didn't hesitate and asked Daphne for help directly.

Daphne said "hmm", squatted down, and inserted her hand wrapped in magma into the ground.

She also began to expand her magma domain with all her strength, and together with Cedric, she suppressed the puppet again.

The two sides were deadlocked, and the situation was once deadlocked.

But what Daphne and Cedric had were not real domains, but "pseudo-domains". Compared with the real domain, the endurance of the pseudo-domain is far inferior.

So about a quarter of an hour later, Daphne and Cedric's faces were covered with sweat.

Astoria and Hermione were anxiously spinning on the side, but they couldn't help.

The fight between domains is not something that ordinary spells can interfere with. If the spells of the two are not done well, they will help the enemy. As for the brooch given by Les, Astoria didn't dare to use it until the last moment.

Well, they can cast a spell on Daphne or Cedric from behind, which can indeed work and help the puppet win faster.

Cedric had helped the puppet by smashing it into the ground.

Seeing that her companions were losing, Hermione became more and more anxious, and then a flash of inspiration flashed through her mind: the two of them were exhausted now, so wouldn't it be better if they just took a break?

This seemed like nonsense, but it was different when combined with Hermione's domain.

After thinking it through, Hermione opened her domain and took in Daphne and the other two.

Daphne:?

Cedric:?

The two were fighting the puppet with all their strength, but they were suddenly moved, which made them feel like they were punching cotton.

"You can rest in my domain first, and then go fight that monster after you have rested. Anyway, time in my domain is almost stagnant compared to the outside world." Hermione quickly introduced the tactics she had come up with to the two of them, and handed over two bottles of energy potions.

"Okay!" Daphne's face showed a hint of joy.

I didn't expect Granger's domain to be used in this way. When she heard Les mention Hermione's library domain before, she was a little disdainful.

Cedric silently opened the potion bottle and drank the energy potion inside.

"What about me? Can I do something?" Astoria looked at Hermione hopefully, hoping to get some "tasks" to do. She felt that since she entered the Forbidden Forest, she was almost watching the show all the time, without any sense of participation.

This question stumped Hermione.

She didn't know what to arrange Astoria to do. She couldn't let her read a book here for a while, right?

"Speaking of what the competition between domains is like?" Hermione changed the subject.

Although she was the only one among the four who had a complete domain, her domain was a functional domain, not an elemental domain. The game between domains was completely unfamiliar to her.

"It's a bit like two people holding a bucket of paint each, competing to paint a field. First, they grab the empty space that is not covered by paint, and then start to wipe off the other party's color after the empty space disappears. Whoever paints the field with his own color first wins." Cedric thought for a moment and gave a very vivid answer.

Daphne added: "In the competition between fields, the dominant party can easily snowball and win."

"Then you and that monster-" Hermione asked anxiously.

"Cedric and I can have a slight advantage when we attack together..." Daphne stopped talking halfway.

"Let me tell you this, you can think that the paint in the puppet's paint bucket is unlimited, while the amount of paint in Daphne and I's bucket is limited, so even if we can have a slight advantage, we will definitely lose in the long run - fortunately, you Granger's domain is there, otherwise the two of us can only support for three minutes at most."

"We can recover our magic here, and then go out and continue to stalemate with the puppet until Les arrives." Daphne proposed the most practical solution at present.

"Huh?!" Hermione suddenly thought of a very serious question. If she pulled Daphne and the others into her domain, would it cause the situation they had been supporting with great effort to collapse directly?

A layer of fine beads of sweat oozed out of her forehead.

"That won't happen. Even if Daphne and I disappear, our remaining power will continue to fight against the puppet, but the speed of erosion will be much faster." After learning of Hermione's concerns, Cedric comforted her.

Cedric was relieved when he learned that he had been here for an hour, but only one second had passed in the outside world.

As the three of them were discussing the battle mode between domains, Astoria had been listening quietly.

From Hermione's attitude, she understood a truth: without a domain, she is nothing, and she can only listen and cannot help at all.

She really wants to have her own domain!

But after hearing the last part, Astoria narrowed her eyes: She seemed to have an idea to break the deadlock?

"Granger, you should be able to control the candidates who enter your domain, right?" Astoria asked a question without thinking.

"Of course." Hermione didn't understand her intention and just nodded.

"Then why don't you try to pull the puppet into your domain? According to what 'pigment' said before, this place should have been occupied by your color. Sister and Cedric can take advantage of the gap when it is pulled in to slightly reverse the situation." Astoria thinks that Hermione can use the advantages of her domain to hold the puppet, buy some time for Cedric and others, and interfere with the puppet's actions by repeatedly pulling the puppet into the domain.

The time when the puppet disappears is just a bonus, because even if Hermione can hold the opponent for an hour, it is only a second in the outside world. The key lies in the "stiffness" that occurs after the puppet enters and exits the domain. Hermione will not explain the characteristics of her domain to the puppet, nor will she tell it when she will pull it in and put it back, which will naturally cause great interference to it.

After listening to Astoria's idea, Cedric's first reaction was to oppose it because it was too dangerous. But Hermione thought she could try.

Her confidence did not lie in what Astoria said, "This place has been occupied by my color", but in the phantom of Les in the domain.

With her unremitting efforts, Les's phantom has been able to communicate with the outside world and make physical contact.

In other words, Les's phantom has the ability to fight!

This is Hermione's biggest reliance.

The four of them are so embarrassed this time, isn't it because Les is trapped? If he is here, the puppet is definitely not the opponent of Les who has a complete domain.

The simple Hermione didn't think of a question, that is, why Les, who has a complete domain, would be trapped by a spell for so long?

She now puts all her attention on the plan to be implemented.

After some communication, she sent Cedric and Daphne out of the domain, and Astoria was left here to restrain the puppet with her.

The moment Cedric and the others disappeared, the puppet was sent in.

Suddenly appearing in an unfamiliar place, the puppet was also stunned.

Before it could react, Astoria's barrage of attacks followed one after another. In order to show her value to the greatest extent, she even released the attack spells in the magic props.

The sudden change and a series of attacks stunned the puppet, so that it was completely at a disadvantage.

Hermione took advantage of this opportunity to silently recite Rice's name in her heart. Soon, Rice's figure appeared at the table behind the bookshelf.

"The library is really lively today." Phantom Rice smiled, drew out his wand, and fought with the puppet.

His spell was much more mature than Astoria's, and it completely suppressed the puppet.

It was not until then that the puppet reacted and tried to expand its own domain in Hermione's domain.

But this was Hermione's territory after all, and the speed of the puppet's domain expansion was much slower. At first, it just added some gravel to the floor of the library.

"Oh? It actually has a domain, it's amazing." Seeing this, Phantom Rice couldn't help but praise the puppet in front of him.

When Phantom Rice suppressed the puppet, Hermione tried to summon Astoria's phantom as well.

Although it hurt her a little to say this, Hermione felt that no matter how small a mosquito was, it was still a piece of meat. No matter how weak Astoria's phantom was, it could still play a role in restraining her.

But to her surprise, the action of summoning Astoria's phantom failed.

Looking at Astoria casting a spell on the puppet not far in front of her, Hermione had a glimmer of enlightenment in her heart: it turned out that as long as she was in her own domain, she could not summon her phantom.

As the puppet's domain gradually unfolded, Astoria and the phantom Rice began to be gradually suppressed by it.

As they fought, a bold idea came to Astoria's mind.

'Huh? Since this phantom is the Rice in Hermione's memory, can this phantom control Rice's domain? '

She thought she could give it a try.

Just now in the Forbidden Forest, she didn't dare to casually unfold Rice's domain, fearing that it would cause too much impact. But in Hermione's domain, these concerns no longer exist.

Even if we take a step back, isn't there a puppet here to "clean up the mess" for them?

Astoria directly grasped her citrine brooch and stimulated the fragment of the domain that belonged to Rice inside.

As soon as the water drop appeared, the phantom Rice turned his head, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. The next second, he took over the authority of the domain.

"It's a great help." After he said this softly, the water ball that was only half a person's height expanded rapidly.

In less than a minute, Hermione's library was filled with misty water mist.

Puppet:?!

It was not surprised for too long, because the pitiful gravel it had just created had been cleared away by the mist of Phantom Rice.

The mist composed of countless small droplets penetrated into the joints and gaps of the puppet. The puppet, which was originally running smoothly, suddenly became stuck.

After a few explosions, the key parts responsible for the operation of the puppet were destroyed by Phantom Rice.

Astoria and Hermione stared at everything that happened in front of them in amazement, and even forgot to close their mouths.

After clearing the puppet's domain and destroying its action center in a few seconds, Phantom Rice's body had almost become transparent.

Needless to say, it can't hold on for much longer.

The phantom first glanced at Hermione and Astoria, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, as if saying "Little classmates, you still need to practice more", and then his eyes locked on the remaining trace of blood in the puppet's eyes.

The next moment, the blood began to burn violently, and then like fireworks, it was dazzling for a moment and then completely disappeared.

The puppet was completely destroyed by the phantom Rice and has been restored to its original state.

Before disappearing, the phantom began to collect the domain.

After a burst of white mist, the phantom Rice disappeared, leaving only a beautiful yellow crystal on the ground.

Astoria and Hermione fell into silence.

Originally, I wanted to contain the enemy, but ended up killing him. Is that okay? !

Granger, your domain is simply cheating!
