Chapter 482: The End of the Road

Chapter 482 The end of the road

As mentioned before, the thunderbird is a magical creature with the ability to sense danger and fly extremely fast.

Logically speaking, a thunderbird with these two abilities should be extremely difficult to hunt, but the fact is that this rare animal has been hunted by magical creature hunters and is on the verge of extinction.

The reason for this result is Thunderbird's character flaw.

The Thunderbird is an extremely proud creature. Just like the introduction to the students of the Thunderbird Academy in Ilvermorny Magic Academy, the Thunderbird, like those Thunderbird students, has extraordinary courage and adventurous spirit.

These two qualities may seem like compliments at first glance, but in some cases, being courageous and adventurous can also mean being reckless.

Based on this, those hunters of magical creatures don’t need to consider other issues at all. They only need to find the thunderbirds, set up traps, and then the thunderbirds will obediently get into the trap, because compared to running away like cowards, , a creature like the thunderbird prefers a tragic death!

This is what the thunderbird in front of Mike is thinking now. This extremely intelligent creature actually knows very well that as long as he runs quickly, he still has a chance to escape, because Mike's target is not it at all, but the bird just now. The human crawling on its paws.

But it still chose to fight Mike. This was not because it was loyal to Clark, but because it simply didn’t want to run away!

"Zizzizi!"

The terrifying noise caused by the convergence of huge electric currents was reverberating in the air. Mike held the holy sword and just looked at the Thunderbird quietly, without any intention of taking action first.

The Thunderbird on the other side didn't dare to take action. At this moment, all the cells in its body were screaming, trying to make it escape.

But the Thunderbird doesn't want to run away. You must know that this is the sky, its main battlefield, and it doesn't believe that it will lose here!

"Hey!~"

A piercing scream pierced the sky. The Thunderbird, bathed in golden thunder light, finally mustered up the courage to take action first. With a sudden wave of its three pairs of wings, the huge figure disappeared on the spot and turned into ashes. He made a golden lightning and rushed towards Mike!

However, Mike was well prepared for his attack.

Mike didn't see any movement, and a black-purple fireball floating next to him roared out and accurately intercepted the thunderbird's flight path!

The Thunderbird's pupils shrank sharply. Its current speed was too fast and it was too late to change direction!

"boom!"

There was only a loud noise, and a large black-purple flame completely engulfed the Thunderbird. But at the next moment, the Thunderbird, covered in golden light, rushed out!

A trace of sarcasm flashed through the eyes of the thunderbird in mid-air. Because it is often bathed in thunder and lightning, its feathers are very resistant to high temperatures. In addition, it is now covered with a layer of high-concentration There is a natural shield formed by golden thunder and lightning, so there is no problem at all when it comes into contact with Mike's flames for a short time.

But it still couldn't escape the shock wave caused by the explosion. Although the fireball just now didn't cause any substantial damage to it, it also made it dizzy and even slowed down.

However, these are minor issues!

Thunderbird was very sure that as long as he could get close, the wizard's small body would not be able to withstand one of his claws!

Thinking this, it shook its head and prepared to adjust its body shape to continue attacking Mike.

However, before it could speed up again, several black and purple fireballs fell in front of it.

"Boom boom boom!"

A series of loud noises came from around the Thunderbird, and the black-purple magic flames raged crazily in the air, and in the dense flames, a faint golden thunder light could be seen flickering!

The next moment, the Thunderbird rushed out again, but this time its speed became slower, and the golden light emitted from its body also dimmed a little - just now it actively stimulated the electrical energy in its body for defense, and at that high concentration It was indeed not injured under the protection of the electric energy, but a lot of its internal abilities were also consumed!

The most important thing is that all of Mike's fireballs were aimed at its head. The terrifying impact almost knocked the Thunderbird unconscious, and it is still in a daze until now.

It raised its head, its golden eyes full of fighting intent!

It doesn't believe that Mike can fire such a powerful fireball instantly. Now that the fireballs floating around Mike have been exhausted, it's its turn next!

Thinking of this, the thunderbird raised its head to the sky and screamed, and prepared to continue attacking, but its high-pitched scream turned into panic in the middle, because at this moment, there were more than a dozen bullets appearing around Mike, which were slightly larger than before. fireballs, and a huge amount of magic power is still gathering towards the wand in Mike's hand, condensing into new fireballs!

Mike smiled in mid-air. He knew very well that the thunderbird in front of him wanted to fight him in a close combat. That was its only chance of winning, but...how could he give it this chance?

"Go ahead."

With Mike's whisper, a dozen fireballs surrounding him suddenly turned into meteors and flew towards the Thunderbird!

The thunderbird on the other side couldn't bear it any longer. It was covered in thunder and loud, and several balls of golden ball lightning were suddenly shot out by it!

Those few balls of lightning seemed to have taken away a large number of computers in its body. After throwing out those few ball-shaped lightnings, the golden light around the Thunderbird completely disappeared. The originally golden body had returned to gray-brown, and the lightning flashed between the feathers. It is also slowly disappearing.

Obviously, this is already its strongest blow!

But there is one thing to say, although it consumes a lot of physical strength and energy, these balls of ball lightning are definitely worth the money. They spin and fly towards Mike. The fireballs along the way are destroyed by the surrounding fireballs before they come into contact with it. The huge electromagnetic station detonated and turned into a large amount of sparks slowly falling towards the forest below.

Seeing this, Thunderbird's weakened body was also shocked, and he looked expectantly at the golden spherical lightning.

The corners of Mike's mouth rose even more. For some reason, he felt that this Thunderbird was a bit silly. If the opponent directly used normal lightning, it might still pose some threat to him. After all, that thing was too fast. But the opponent actually chose to release ball lightning.

That's really too bad, because as a Muggle professional for two generations, Mike still has some understanding of the strange physical phenomenon of ball lightning.

Ball lightning has the same properties as will-o'-the-wisps. It does not have the ability to move itself. It relies entirely on the wind to float. However, unlike will-o'-the-wisps, ball lightning often appears in stormy weather, so it is not suitable for use in strong winds. The speed of dropping it is generally very fast.

Just like those balls of ball lightning, they relied on the strong wind created by the thunderbird's wings to fly towards him.

And it is too easy to deal with this kind of attack!

Mike shook his head helplessly, then raised his wand and swung it towards the golden balls of electricity.

A gust of wind blew from the side, and the golden electric balls suddenly changed direction, flew past Mike's side, and landed on the scorched forest below, exploding a series of large holes.

The thunderbird opposite Mike instinctively flapped its wings and stayed in the air. Its eyes were wide open. It turned its head to look at the series of big holes that were still smoking, and then looked at Mike. The bird's face was full of confusion. .

The next moment, the Thunderbird let out a shrill wail before turning around and running away.

Although it is a bit reckless, at this stage, it has used all its trump cards but still does not hurt the opponent at all. If it doesn't run away, it will be a fool!

And its action also made Mike a little confused. He didn't expect that the Thunderbird, which had been fighting desperately just now, would directly choose to escape.

But Mike was not an ordinary wizard. He reacted quickly. An orange-red fireball was instantly thrown away by Mike, and it hit the Thunderbird's wings with a long tail flame.

Accompanied by a huge explosion and a slight wail, the Thunderbird, which had lost its lightning protection, was blown away, spinning and falling to the scorched earth below.

After landing, the Thunderbird struggled to get up. Just as it was about to continue taking off and fleeing, a streak of sword light roared from top to bottom and directly pierced its left wing, firmly anchoring it to the ground.

And this was not over yet. While the Thunderbird howled miserably in pain, more than ten stone chains as thick as an adult's head broke out from the ground and wrapped tightly around the Thunderbird's body.

Thunderbird still wanted to continue struggling, and even did not hesitate to force his body to discharge, but it was all in vain!

You must know that what Mike used was the 'Dragon Trap Curse' used by dragon tamers to subdue fire dragons. This powerful spell is designed to target large and novel creatures. Even fire dragons cannot break free, let alone thunderbirds.

After waving his hand to summon the Holy Sword back and confirming that the Thunderbird could not escape, Mike rode his broomstick and flew in the direction of George and Fred. He had already wasted too much time trying to capture the Thunderbird alive. Although Clark There are George and Fred in check, but judging from the intermittent information coming from the Masonic gold coins, the situation of George and Fred is getting worse and worse.

Mike's guess was correct. George and Fred were facing a tough battle at this moment.

Their knowledge of Ravenclaw Academy was limited, so at first they thought that the so-called Clark was probably a waste similar to Draco, and that he could assassinate Mike only with the powerful black magic props passed down from his family.

But after they really caught up with each other, they found that they were wrong, and they were so wrong!

In fact, it was wrong to say that they chased Clark. To be precise, Clark came to them, and his purpose of doing so was to snatch the broomsticks of brothers George and Fred. This is easy to understand. In this situation, this is almost his only way out.

Ever since, George and Fred were caught off guard.

As the seventh-year prefect of Ravenclaw House, Clark is definitely among the top echelons of Hogwarts students. Moreover, he seems to be a wizard who specializes in all petrification spells. In this simple spell, He has extraordinary attainments in this aspect. Not only can he cast the spell silently, but his casting speed is also astonishingly fast, almost to the point of instantaneous casting.

Fortunately, Clark's accuracy is not very good, which is a common problem among many academic wizards. Therefore, although George and Fred were unable to lift their heads under his continuous petrification spell attacks, they relied on their knowledge in Gryffindor School. The ability to fly broomsticks that the team had developed could barely sustain it, and even occasionally showed some color.

But this was of no use. Clark was currently in a dense jungle. With the tree canopy blocking him, George and Fred could not find his exact position at all and could only rely on the trajectory of the opponent's spell to counterattack.

It is conceivable that such a counterattack is purely a matter of luck. George and Fred both know that it is only a matter of time before they lose.

Now they can only hope that Mike can get rid of the Thunderbird soon and come to support them. Otherwise, if Clark really snatches the broomstick and escapes, then all their efforts today will be in vain. .

At this moment, Mike's support arrived.

Several flaming meteors dragged their long tail flames past George and Fred, and landed in the forest in front of them.

Immediately afterwards, a series of roars came, and the entire forest that had troubled George and Fred for a long time was directly turned into ashes under the erosion of the magic flames. The scarlet flames completely burned on the scorched earth, and Under this terrifying high temperature, many crystals emitting red light even appeared on the ground in that area - that was the sand in the soil that was directly turned into glass!

George and Fred both instinctively controlled the broomsticks to lift up, but even so, their hair was still burnt by the high temperature below.

Clark, who was in the forest below, felt even more uncomfortable. At this moment, his location had completely turned into a flaming hell. Although he relied on his excellent reflexes and powerful magic to avoid being killed instantly, due to Due to the explosion of flames, almost all the oxygen around him had been depleted, and all that remained was magma all over the ground and endless poisonous gas!

Clark held his breath, gritted his teeth and looked at the sky.

There, Mike, holding a magic wand in his right hand and a holy sword in his left hand, was slowly falling from the sky.

The dazzling sunlight prevented Clark from seeing Mike's expression clearly, but he knew clearly that the other person must be smiling ferociously at this moment.

In an instant, Clark felt an uncontrollable fear in his heart.

Now the direction of development of things has far exceeded his expectation. He originally thought that Mike would try to capture him alive and then ask him for information about the mastermind behind the scenes.

But looking at Mike's current posture, he clearly intends to kill him directly!

Clark's body began to tremble slightly, and he instinctively opened his mouth to beg for mercy, but before he could make a sound, Mike threw his left hand violently, and the holy sword in his hand turned into a ball of debris. Shadow flew towards Clark!
