No wizard chose to use the Iron Armor Charm to catch the cannonball.
This is the lesson taught to them by the blood and tears of their companions.
Rifles and pistols are okay, and the Iron Armor Curse can be easily resisted.
If the cannonball is a dumb cannon, it is just a big iron block without any magical fluctuations.
That doesn't matter.
An Auror's Armor Charm is enough to withstand a solid iron ball from a cannon.
However, the cannonball will explode!
The powerful explosion was enough to knock the wizard into coma and even cause him to die on the spot.
Therefore, escaping by phantom is the highest priority option.
But Grindelwald is here, will he allow the wizards present to disapparate easily?
Obviously not, many wizards told everyone after disapparating that it would be suicide now.
So in addition to evading, they had no choice but to fight head-on.
As for hard-hitting cannonballs, there is no magic that is more useful than transfiguration.
Like an explosion curse, one is fine, but the sparks of the explosion are enough to make you unable to see whether there is a second one right behind it!
Transfiguration, turning cannonballs into paper, into pine wood, into butterflies and birds...
But here’s the problem! Normal transformation requires a magic spell to hit the cannonball!
Moreover, it is difficult for a single-shot magic spell to take into account the surrounding situation.
At this time, it’s time to test the team’s cooperation.
The wizards all ran to their team leaders.
At the same time, cast magic to form a thin barrier over the area where you are.
Any cannonball can easily penetrate this barrier.
But the cannonballs that were compact and shiny before passed through this barrier and turned into metal powder and gunpowder powder.
The simplest application of transfiguration - shape change.
Using this method for this situation is not difficult and has a wide scope.
Easy and effective, isn't it?
Steve Delacour used the corner of his eye to see what his men were doing.
Seeing that they were still doing well under such intensive artillery fire, I secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Grindelwald, do you want to defeat us just with Muggle fireworks?"
Steve waved his clenched wand to relieve his slightly stiff limbs and asked softly.
"Of course not. With the help of magic, we can have as many artillery fires as we want. I wonder how long you can hold on?"
Grindelwald turned his elder wand several times in his hand and answered cheerfully.
"Besides, I don't expect these artillery fires to catch all of you traitors. When you feel the pain and taste the despair, you will think that it is a great thing that I want to rule the Muggles and prohibit them from researching thermal weapons."
"I will never let your purpose succeed! Grindelwald! Your real purpose is never to let wizards become the masters of this world!"
Even Grindelwald's words sound somewhat reasonable.
But being favored by Nicolas Flamel, he came into contact with some of the secrets of Grindelwald's actions.
"It seems that you were also taught badly by that old man..."
There was a trace of struggle in Grindelwald's eyes, as if he couldn't bear that such an excellent wizard could not be used by him, and he wanted to kill him with his own hands.
One second ago, Grindelwald had a hint of kindness towards Steve.
The next second, the two of them waved their wands in unison.
Top wizards fight one-on-one and rarely use powerful black magic to fight against the enemy, because black magic has more or less side effects, and the release time and the gap afterward are fatal weaknesses.
Therefore, for these top wizards, transformation is their best choice.
Grindelwald waved his wand, and the tall buildings under his feet continued to crumble.
Pieces of gravel continued to gather and join together in the air, turning into a long giant snake.
Steve, on the other hand, plays it steady and without all the bells and whistles.
The building materials under his feet peeled off quickly, and steel bars were pulled out from the concrete one after another, making a sound of breaking through the air, and finally condensed together to form a human-shaped skeleton.
At the same time, stone debris quickly covered it, forming a stone statue that was slightly smaller than the one formed by Grindelwald's transformation.
Bang——
The fist of the humanoid stone statue collided with the tail of the giant snake stone statue.
The giant snake's tail was shattered by the explosion, and the humanoid stone statue also suffered deep visible damage to its 'bones'.
However, neither side is lacking in transfiguration materials.
The magic heart moves according to the movement, and new materials make up for the gap in the collision.
Someone asked, why not use a repair spell? Why not recycle the broken pieces?
The repairing spell...with the effort of reciting the spell, the transformation spell was repaired.
As for the flying fragments, the magic powers of the two casters are still entangled in them.
It takes a lot of effort to smooth out the aura in it before you can apply the deformation spell on it.
After a preliminary test, Grindelwald found that he couldn't seem to do anything to Steve with only a stone snake.
Even though Steve's control over magic is not as good as his own, he really doesn't want to go deeper into the art of transformation.
This resulted in the two of them fighting inseparably.
Sofia next to her is determined to help her adoptive father.
However, as soon as she took action, she was entangled by the Auror whom Grindelwald had seduced.
After this fight, Steve didn't want Sophia to join the fight and die in vain.
She wanted to stop her with words, but the betrayers stopped her.
Sophia was unable to face the enemy head-on, so she had to fight and retreat at the same time.
Looking at Sophia gradually disappearing from his sight, Steve couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief.
He believed that these miscellaneous fish would only bring challenges to Sophia, rather than despair.
If we face Grindelwald here...
"It seems that we are both distracted. Come on, let me see how your fighting ability is under the old man's training?"
Grindelwald's words made Steve take back his mind.
Then the two started a fierce fight.
In addition to the head-to-head battle between the two giant stone statues, the two also accelerated their pace, releasing magic spells while running.
Grindelwald became murderous, and his magic was no longer leisurely, but almost fully exerted.
I saw him waving his wand, and the tip of the wand, glowing with red light, passed through the air and left mysterious patterns.
It sounds like a long spell-casting action, but in fact, Grindelwald's magic waved out the afterimage, and the whole process took less than a second.
The magic took shape, and at the top of his wand, huge blue fireballs appeared one after another.
At this time, Steve's old strength has been exhausted, and new strength has not yet been born.
He cannot unleash powerful magic to confront Grindelwald head-on.
Helpless, he had no choice but to wave his magic wand and once again form a stone giant to protect himself and buy himself time.
But there were flaws in manipulating the two stone giants distractedly.
Grindelwald's stone serpent took advantage of the stone man's stiffness and tore off one of the stone giant's arms.
After losing the 'steel bone' in his arm, even if the arm is regenerated, the fist he swings will no longer be as strong as before.
Just such a flaw changed the evenly matched situation above.
And Steve also complained secretly.
After all, it was a stone statue that I formed in a hurry.
It is small in size and has no steel frame.
The blue fireball on the opposite side followed Grindelwald's right hand.
One after another, they turned into a sea of fire and swept towards Steve. The blazing high temperature baked Steve's silvery and flowing hair, making it slightly dry and curly.
Steve gritted his teeth and held on for a while, feeling that he could not withstand Grindelwald's move.
I let out a long sigh in my heart.
He used all his strength to activate his magic power and let go of the control of the Veela blood in his body.
Although natural magic has no consciousness, they are at the request of Veela, the female elf.
Choose to support Steve and give up Grindelwald.
As a result, not only was the stone statue in front of Steve not destroyed, but the cracks burned by the blue flames gradually healed.
Grindelwald's blue sea of fireballs is getting thinner and thinner.
