Chapter 252 The situation takes a sharp turn for the worse



The rain kept falling in the Forbidden Forest, and the wall of fire in front of Wentworth was still burning fiercely. Wentworth's spell was unable to break Quirrell's curse.

This scene not only stunned Wentworth for a moment, but even Quirrell couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then he laughed wantonly: "Haha! Wentworth, you didn't expect it! After all, I am a professor at Hogwarts, and you are just an ordinary Hogwarts student! This is a spell I created using ancient magic runes. Ordinary spells can't break this spell!"

After hearing what Quirrell said, Wentworth suddenly realized that Quirrell's wall of fire was obviously different from the circle he had drawn with blazing flames before. It might be more like Snape's own magic strike, which required a specific counter-spell.

However, thinking of this, Wentworth couldn't help but feel a little anxious, because he had not yet learned the ancient magic runes, and it was obviously impossible for him to find the counter-spell of this spell in a short time.

What's worse is that Green's casting speed has gradually slowed down. Wentworth only needs to take a glance to know that Green's magic power seems to be insufficient.

Although Green was good enough, after all, he was the head of Hufflepuff and was considered a top student in the entire Hogwarts. However, compared to Cedric's natural magical power and Wentworth's super high soul strength, Green's excellence seemed a little mediocre.

Although Green was still holding on at this time, it was obvious that he could not hold on for much longer.

Quirrell also noticed this. Seeing that Wentworth did not break his spell, Quirrell still focused his attention on Green and Cedric, especially Green. Quirrell had even begun to counterattack Green.

For a moment, the originally evenly matched situation was gradually broken. Green could only barely defend against Quirrell's attack, but it was difficult to restrain Quirrell.

Seeing this, Wentworth took a deep breath and was about to turn around to join the battle. Since it was temporarily difficult to break through Quirrell's magic blockade and rescue Cassandra, there was only one way left, which was to kill Quirrell.

However, just as Wentworth was about to take action, he was stopped by Hermione.

Seeing Wentworth looking at her impatiently, Hermione immediately said, "Senior Wentworth, perhaps we can try another way to get through this wall of fire!"

Wentworth was stunned when he heard Hermione's words. Then, before Wentworth could ask what the method was, Hermione pointed her wand at him:

"Frozen Fire Curse!"

When Wentworth heard the spell Hermione recited, he was stunned, and then his face showed ecstasy.

Harry on the side couldn't help but ask, "Hermione, what spell did you cast on Wentworth? Is it reliable? Don't let Wentworth down!"

Hearing Harry's question, Hermione rolled her eyes at Harry, then began to explain:

"The Freezing Fire Charm comes from Chapter 3 of the Standard Spells. It can prevent wizards from being harmed by fire! Long, long ago, Muggles were afraid of the power of wizards and would always try to capture them. They would tie the captured wizards to a cross and then light a bonfire under their feet."

"So, the wizards at that time invented this spell just in case. If they were caught by Muggles, there would be a glimmer of hope for escape. Even today, although this spell is not very useful, it has been passed down."

Harry was busy listening to Hermione's popular science, while Wentworth on the other side was already standing in front of the wall of fire released by Quirrell.

Wentworth gritted his teeth and gently stretched his left hand into the wall of fire. Then, Wentworth's eyes lit up. Although he could feel the temperature on the surface of his arm rising, it was not enough to cause any harm to him.

Seeing this, Wentworth no longer hesitated. He gritted his teeth, closed his eyes, and rushed out of the wall of fire.

When he came to Cassandra, seeing that Cassandra looked a little embarrassed but still full of energy, Wentworth couldn't help but whispered:

"I'm sorry I'm late!"

Just as Wentworth was trying to find a way to break the spell on Cassandra, he heard a scream from behind him.

"No, Green!"

Wentworth looked back suddenly and saw Green flying backwards like a parabola.

Although he didn't know what had just happened, Wentworth knew that Green and even Cedric were in danger.

Seeing this, Wentworth hurriedly shouted: "Harry, come out quickly, let's go first!"

Hearing Wentworth's call, Harry, who was originally looking at Green worriedly, was stunned. Just as he was about to shake his head to refuse, he was gently pulled by Hermione beside him.

Hermione pointed her wand at Harry Potter again and said loudly: "Freezing Fire Curse!"

Then, Hermione pushed Harry and said loudly, as if she was afraid that others couldn't hear her:

"Go! Go! Don't worry about them, just get out of here with Wentworth!"

On the other side, Quirrell discovered that Wentworth had actually walked out of his spell. Just when Quirrell was still trying to figure out how Wentworth had walked out when his spell was clearly not broken, he saw Hermione casting a spell on Harry, and then he suddenly realized.

After realizing it, Quirrell felt his nose sore, and he really wanted to shout at his students: Are you guys always playing me?! Forget about Wentworth, after all, he is the leader of the Wizarding Party. Forget about Greene and Cedric, after all, their talents are there, how can a first-grade girl who just ran out know such an obscure spell as the Frost Fire Curse?! However, Quirrell knew that now was not the time to dwell on these things, and before Voldemort could start cursing again, Quirrell took the lead and shouted: "Where do you want to go? Stay here!"

Then, a powerful spell rushed towards Cedric. Although Cedric defended himself, Green flew backwards and his life or death was unknown. Without Green's restraint, Cedric could only barely dissolve the spell. However, Cedric was still knocked back several steps by the spell before he could stabilize his body.

At this time, Quirrell had already flown in the direction of Wentworth and Harry!

At this time, Harry and Hermione had relied on Hermione's Freezing Fire Spell to break through Quirrell's spell and came to Wentworth.

"Senior Wentworth, Quirrell is coming towards us!"

At this time, Wentworth was busy removing the spells from Cassandra one by one.

Hearing Harry's warning, Wentworth pushed Cassandra, who had not yet completely lifted the curse, onto Hermione and said:

"Take her away first! Quickly!"

Hermione knew that now was not the time to be humble, so she put her arm around Cassandra and stepped back.

Only Wentworth and Harry were left there, facing Quirrell who was flying towards them.
