In the duel arena, Ian's sudden disappearance made the atmosphere even more tense. The Bulgarian sorcerer who was responsible for releasing the signal felt that he could not wait any longer, in case more contestants involved in the attack were killed. Suddenly, a twin-headed eagle flew out from the stands. Its body was covered in black feathers, and only its beak and feet were red. The twin-headed eagle flew into the air and let out a sharp screech before exploding in the air.
The audience cheered enthusiastically in an instant. Some of the wizards who did not know what was going on thought that this was to add to the atmosphere of the duel, but some of the quick-witted ones had already realized that something was wrong. When they saw the Greek staff rushing into the stands to stop the wizards who were setting off the fireworks, they felt that something was wrong. The cheers turned into noises and doubts.
When the signal was received, the Bulgarian contestant, Dimitar, who was hovering in the middle of Allen's encirclement, swooped down from the sky like a meteor and unfolded a parchment scroll as a signal. The other contestants also reacted. Other than the assassins who were entangled with other contestants on the periphery of the encirclement and couldn't get away, the faster ones had already taken out their scrolls and unfolded them to activate the magic stored in them.
Spots of pale green light flashed in the unfolded scrolls among the assassins. Like the eyes of a beast in the dark, green light shrouded the entire area. Layers of killing curses intertwined into a net of death and rushed towards Allen, who had just blown up an Indian wizard into the air.
Most of the wizards had yet to recover from the intense duel. After the host explained the sudden attack, he felt that the color of the spell was not right and began to stutter. Many of the contestants below were still subconsciously casting spells. Only a few of them who were familiar with black magic and had quick reflexes recognized that these spells were killing curses. Vasily was stunned and stopped his attack on Allen. He raised his head and stared blankly at the green light.
Until the bloated Indian was the first to come into contact with a few green lights in the air, his face turned ashen and he died. Panicked and ear-piercing screams exploded in the audience seats. The wizards finally realized that the fireworks just now were not a performance, but a signal for the contestants who were disguised as assassins to attack. They knew that this was an assassination or even a terrorist attack.
However, to the assassins' surprise, Allen's reaction speed had obviously exceeded the Magi's estimation. Although the green light had formed an overwhelming encirclement after two to three seconds of activation, the Killing Curses that were at the forefront of the attack began to reverse their trajectories not long after it was launched. The dazzling green light quickly shot back, killing the Magi who were still holding the magic scrolls in their hands in an instant, causing them to silently fall to the ground in disarray.
But Allen's reversal was just a drop in the bucket in the face of the green light that came from all directions in a short period of time. More green light was about to touch his body. Whether it was the audience on the stage or the contestants below, they were familiar with Allen's ability. They also realized that in the face of so many curses, Allen's ability to separate himself into a mist to avoid them was obviously useless.
In this short period of time, the assassins went through the emotions of anticipation when they cast their spells and the fear when they found out that their opponent's quick reaction speed was fast. Only now did they feel a little excited that they were about to succeed. They secretly rejoiced that Allen, who was faster than them, did not choose to directly use Phantom Shift to escape. Instead, he arrogantly wasted time to reverse a few of the killing curses.
But before the first scream of the audience in the stands came to an end, everyone found that Allen's original position was replaced by a Otherworld Gate that was taking shape. And Allen himself appeared in mid-air, floating under the shield of the duel arena.
No one understood what was going on. They only felt that Allen did not teleport. It was as if he was still in the same place a moment ago, and the moment after they did not even blink their eyes, Allen naturally floated in mid-air more than ten meters away.
Intense cheers broke out in the stands, and this confusing situation made the assassins below panic. Under such a dense attack of killing curses, the assassins below were actually able to escape unscathed and did not suffer any damage. The original plan's biggest reliance had disappeared.
The contestants who were normally participating in the competition also reacted.
"Despicable! Shameless!"
Vassily's eyes widened in anger. The reason why he hated Allen Harris so much was that, like Krum and the other Demstrand students, the first generation of The Dark Lord also caused his grandfather to lose his life when he was active. However, Vassily only wanted to use the duel tournament to teach this arrogant Allen Harris a lesson. After all, he was the one who sheltered Grindelwald and allowed him to live a comfortable life as the president of the university.
But now, there were so many wizards who used killing curses against the law. Vassily resolutely turned around and carried out the justice of his grandfather who chose to stand against Grindelwald. Without any mercy, he directly punched the face of an assassin who was still holding a magic scroll in his hand. Before the assassin fell to the ground, there was a cracking sound, indicating that his nose was broken.
Like a signal, many young and aggressive contestants chose to act like Vassily and began to attack the wizards who were still holding magic scrolls in their hands. It did not matter if they were assassins who participated in the operation or just rich contestants.
For this duel, the contestants had trained for a long time. In the end, because of the actions of these conspirators, the duel was about to be canceled. Their efforts were all in vain, and this ignited their anger.
As the person in charge of the duel tournament, the former minister of the Greek Ministry of Magic, Stefanos Mitsokakis, was so anxious that he pulled out a few strands of his goatee. His forehead was covered with sweat. If the assassins hated Greece, as the organizer of the duel, there would be no hope for the floating city to rise again. If Harris took revenge on Greece because of this, it would be an unexpected disaster. He turned his wand upside down and spoke to the tip of his wand in a loud voice, "Aura, listen up! Open the protective shield and arrest those assassins! Arrest them all! Confirm it with the video later! "
"Using the Unforgivable Curse on me in front of everyone. It seems that this has been a conspiracy since the change of the rules …" Allen seemed to be whispering softly in the ears of the wizards. His soothing voice covered the entire arena, but to the contestants who participated in the assassination, it made them panic. "As for you assassins … How dare you attack me like this? Do you know who you are facing?"
Some of the assassins who were too slow or were entangled in the battle before despair began to spread. They did not give up and continued to use the magic scrolls they did not have time to use on Allen.
Surprisingly, Allen didn't have any intention of reversing or dodging the first wave of Killing Curse attacks. Instead, he took the initiative to open his arms and welcome the green light in front of everyone. Seven or eight curses that would kill anyone who got close to them all hit Allen's body.
"Merlin, that's Killing Curses! And there's more than one! But it doesn't seem to have any effect on him! "
"The dazzling green light is enough to prove that the magic contained in it is very powerful. Those scrolls are not inferior. The curses that were turned around just now killed many contestants."
"These idiots don't know who they are facing! Principal Allen Harris is obviously not an ordinary person! "
…
It was already a legend that Harry Potter was able to escape from death under the Killing Curse of the mysterious person. Now, they had witnessed an even more unbelievable legend. He was able to remain unscathed under so many Killing Curses. Although Allen was actually feeling dizzy and nauseous after being hit by so many Killing Curses, he did not have any more nosebleeds after becoming a Chosen and his strength had increased.
