Chapter 95: The Wizard is a Girl (Fourth Update)
Chapter 95: The Wizard is a Girl (Fourth Update)
A moment later, when the transformation was complete, Jerry felt his once familiar body become utterly foreign.
His short, brown hair began to grow longer, thicker, and a bit messy.
His upper body, which had been sculpted with steel-like muscles, now bulged slightly, and the powerful strength that had exceeded that of an adult diminished to that of a young girl.
As for his lower body, it was a whole different story!
In short, the Jerry buried under the pile of clothes had completely transformed into Hermione's appearance.
Pushing aside the clothes covering him, he didn't bother to retrieve the hat and mask that had fallen into the pile. Instead, he pretended to be angry and rode the flying broom out of the clothing store, soaring back into the sky.
Earlier, when Jerry was knocked away, the freezing charm had naturally dissipated. The rocket that had been frozen mid-air exploded with a loud boom, jolting the sleeping residents and the reporters staking out on the streets awake.
Especially Lucy, the most persistent reporter, who had been following Jerry's movements closely, was not far from the explosion site.
Before the explosion, she had seen Jerry, as if struck by something, plummet from the sky. She immediately instructed her driver to speed towards the street where Jerry had fallen.
As Jerry rode the Nimbus 2000 out of the clothing store, Lucy's car arrived at the store's entrance just in time.
"Click!"
The flash from Lucy's camera illuminated the scene, capturing a clear side view of Jerry riding the broom, his long hair flowing freely, without the wizard hat.
"Click, click, click!"
After Jerry's figure disappeared into the sky, Lucy's eyes gleamed as she whispered to herself:
"Who would have thought, the wizard is actually a girl! This is a huge scoop, tomorrow's front page is set!"
Indeed, Lucy thought, every time the wizard appeared, they wore a mask that only revealed their eyes and a loose wizard robe, making it impossible to tell whether they were a boy or a girl.
Most people had subconsciously assumed the wizard was a boy.
And the wizard had never denied it.
Jerry silently gave a thumbs-up to the female reporter's quick action.
He knew there were many reporters lurking in Hell's Kitchen, ready to snap photos or videos of him fighting crime. That's why he had decided to use the Polyjuice Potion at the last minute.
He hadn't expected to be photographed so clearly right away, but it suited his plans perfectly.
Even if the reporters hadn't captured his image, he was confident that S.H.I.E.L.D.'s satellites in the sky would have.
Not only did his appearance change, but his gender did as well. Would S.H.I.E.L.D. still suspect him of being the wizard?
From today on, the whole world would know that the wizard was a girl and what she looked like. At least for a while, no one would doubt his identity.
However, this wasn't a permanent solution.
After all, the Polyjuice Potion only lasted for an hour, and as he aged, his male characteristics would become more pronounced.
But that didn't matter. He just needed to keep it hidden for a few years.
His power would only grow stronger, and once he reached a certain level, he wouldn't need to hide anything.
Besides, Hermione wasn't a figment of his imagination. He could always take Hermione to the Main World for a stroll if needed.
"Next, I need to deal with those who dared to attack me!"
Riding the flying broom, Jerry didn't ascend too high but chose to weave through the buildings below, heading towards the building from which the attack had originated.
At this moment, using the Disguise Charm would have been a safer bet, but he didn’t want others to know about his ability to turn invisible just yet.
Besides, the few Muggles he faced were no real challenge. Even without the Disguise Charm, he could handle them with ease.
Modern weapons could indeed pose a danger to Wizards, but only in cases of ambush. Once a Wizard was aware of the threat, it became incredibly difficult to kill them with firearms.
Jerry, in particular, was not an ordinary Wizard. Unlike most Wizards, he was familiar with modern weapons and knew how to avoid danger and take down his opponents more efficiently.
"Truly a monster, even an Armor-Piercing Shell can’t penetrate his defenses!"
The Suit-clad Man, using a telescope, watched as Jerry, riding his broom, emerged unscathed except for his hat and mask falling off. He couldn’t help but frown.
However, he didn’t give up. Although the opponent’s defenses were formidable, they weren’t invincible.
Firstly, the fact that Jerry was using his abilities to prevent the rocket from exploding indicated that the rocket still posed a threat. The Armor-Piercing Shell, while failing to break through his defenses, had still forced him into the room below.
So, with proper coordination, it was still possible to kill him.
"Dana!"
"He’s constantly dodging, and the buildings are in the way, making it hard to aim. But once he gets within a hundred meters, without the buildings blocking, I can definitely hit him with my skills!"
The Red-haired Woman kept moving her Sniper Rifle, trying to lock onto Jerry’s unpredictable movements.
"Good. Once Dana hits the target, you use the rocket launcher to follow up, and then use the Drone’s self-destruct explosion to finish it off!"
Hearing the Red-clad Woman’s response, the Suit-clad Man first turned to the Bulky Man holding the rocket launcher and gave him an order, then instructed the young man operating another Drone.
Both nodded in agreement.
However, just as Jerry flew through the high-rise buildings and approached within a hundred meters, with no more obstacles in his path, he suddenly waved his wand, enveloping himself in a cloud of smoke.
"Little punks, thinking you can fool me!"
Looking at the four people on the rooftop of the building ahead, Jerry let out a cold laugh. After casting the Smoke Screen Charm, he waved his wand again:
"Luminos!"
Suddenly, in the darkness, blinding rays of light, like miniature suns, burst out from the smoke, forcing the four people who were staring at the smoke screen to instinctively close their eyes.
Luminos, an Advanced Lumos spell, could emit a light as bright as the sun.
The glowing sphere currently floating in Jerry’s Spacetime Box, which resembled a sun, was created using alchemy combined with the "Luminos" spell.
"Petrify!"
Taking advantage of the moment when all four had their eyes closed, Jerry darted out of the smoke, made a sharp turn to their side, and cast a Full Body Bind on the Bulky Man holding the rocket launcher.
While a Sniper Rifle couldn’t penetrate his Shield Charm, the rocket launcher was a different story. Therefore, neutralizing the most significant threat first was crucial.
