Three days later, Backrooms Level 3.
Amidst the annoying noise and dim lights of this harsh environment, Yang Tao stood beside Harry, carefully instructing him, "Don't be nervous, keep breathing."
"The spells you've learned are all quite subjective powers. As long as your heart is firm enough, you can unleash the spells' full power."
The thin Harry nodded with a serious expression, his gaze fixed on the figure in the darkness. The figure looked like a naked human with long limbs, currently crawling on the ground like a dog.
Its body was also larger than that of an ordinary person.
"Deep breath… Come on, cast the spell!"
"Petrificus Totalus!"
Harry quickly uttered the spell, and a beam of light shot from the tip of his wand, flying straight towards the 'Hound' hiding in the darkness in the distance.
Harry's attack hit the 'Hound', which made the 'Hound', who was still hesitant about whether to charge, immediately sprint towards Harry.
When the Hound ran into the illuminated area of the incandescent light, even though Harry had seen the terrifying appearance of the Zombie Piglin in the previous two days, he was still frightened by this human-headed Hound.
This kind of terror was completely different from the bloody horror of the Zombie Piglin; it was like a spider crawling on one's body, making one's spine tingle…
The noisy machinery of Level 3 did not prevent Yang Tao's words from reaching his ears.
"Don't be nervous, don't be afraid. Your spell had an effect, at least this Hound's speed has slowed down significantly."
"Continue…"
Harry struggled to overcome his fear, looking at the charging Hound, he gritted his teeth and swung his wand again: "Petrificus Totalus… Petrificus Totalus…"
Several thin beams of light shot out quickly from the tip of the wand, hitting the Hound again. The already affected Hound became even slower, and even its fleshy skin turned gray.
However, the Hound still persistently ran towards the two of them.
What was originally only a distance of twenty or thirty meters, the Hound had already reached Harry's front in this short time.
Harry quickly tried to retreat.
But before he could make a move, with a bang, surging flames engulfed the Hound's body, though the flames only lasted for an instant. The Hound's head was pierced by a powerful force, and it fell to the ground, motionless.
"Well done, Harry."
In fact, Harry's spellcasting, in Yang Tao's eyes, was full of flaws, but he didn't point it out now. This was something Harry needed to experience himself, and it would be best to remind him when summarizing the experience at night.
Harry looked at the fallen Hound and said with some lingering fear, "What kind of monster is this?"
"A Hound, it's considered a unique Entity monster of this world."
Yang Tao briefly introduced it and then smiled, changing the subject: "Since you defeated the Hound, it's time for your reward. There's a power room just ahead. Let's go see what's inside."
Learning through play.
Since there was effort, there should be a reward, so that Harry would be motivated to continue working hard.
After putting the Hound's corpse into his backpack, Yang Tao led Harry towards the power room. For Harry's eyes, he did not use his 5000-lumen flashlight.
Otherwise, whether the Entity would be harmed was unknown, but Harry's eyes, in such a dim environment, suddenly receiving that level of light, would be no less than being hit by a flashbang at point A.
"Harry, it's your turn."
Harry nodded and raised his wand again, softly calling out, "Lumos!"
As the spell appeared, a white light emerged from the wand, illuminating the surroundings. Yang Tao smiled with satisfaction and praised, "Good."
"Harry, your talent is truly remarkable. This Lumos spell is very practical. You can practice it more often so that it becomes your instinct, so proficient that you can cast it without a wand or incantation."
The Lumos spell could theoretically become very strong.
The two walked into the power room. Whether it was because there was a Hound guarding it, or because Harry was lucky, besides various messy tools, there were also two bottles of [Gray Almond Water] on a shelf inside the power room.
"There's even [Gray Almond Water] spawned on the shelf?"
After his verification, these two bottles were indeed ordinary gray almond water, not dangerous items like chloride or cashew water at all.
Twisting open the cap of one bottle, Yang Tao directly drank the Almond water in one gulp. After confirming there were no problems, he handed the other bottle to Harry.
"Drink it. This stuff can relieve your tension and also provide nutrition."
Harry heard this, reached out, took the Almond water, and gulped down several mouthfuls, then showed an expression as if he wanted to speak but hesitated.
"What's wrong?"
Yang Tao noticed Harry's mood was a bit off and asked with concern.
"Um… Mr. Yang Tao, can I learn to use a gun?"
He had been throwing spells for a long time, and that monster called the Hound had only slowed down a bit, but Yang Tao had only gently pulled the trigger, and that monster was dead beyond dead.
Yang Tao couldn't help but laugh when he heard Harry's words, reaching out and patting Harry's head, saying, "The gift, I've already prepared it for you, but not now."
"Here… This is what I prepared for you. See if you like it."
KRISS Vector Submachine Gun
Type: Submachine Gun;
Single shot damage: 10 points
Magazine capacity: 25 rounds
Power III
Punch I
The advantage of this KRISS Vector submachine gun is its extremely low recoil, making it very suitable for beginners or people with less strength.
The KRISS Vector submachine gun that Yang Tao took out also had a light grip and a holographic sight suitable for close-range shooting.
Harry looked at the submachine gun in Yang Tao's hand, then looked at the wand in his own hand, and suddenly he felt that the wand didn't seem so appealing anymore.
"Mr. Yang Tao, is… is this for me?"
"But not now."
Yang Tao handed the submachine gun to Harry, and Harry's hand sank.
"Your physical fitness is too weak right now. You probably can't even hold the gun for a full magazine of bullets. We still need to increase physical training next, but don't worry, as long as you follow me and run more maps in the Backrooms, you'll be fine."
"Right now, your main priority is to master spells, after all, you'll be my magic consultant in the future, not a firearms expert…"
Harry was absolutely delighted with the KRISS Vector submachine gun in his hand. Although its weight of 5 kg with accessories was a bit heavy for an eleven-year-old, it was a submachine gun!!
"Mr. Yang Tao, rest assured, I will study diligently."
"Good, then let's continue."
