"You're quite fast, Mr. Folly."
By the time Grindelwald reached the main entrance, all the witches from the Magical Congress of the United States of America who had attacked him were already lying on the ground. However, Grindelwald clearly didn't intend to kill them and incite public outrage; he had only used spells like Stupefy and binding charms.
His target had always been Muggles and the Statute of Secrecy. Killing a large number of ordinary witches would damage his reputation and wasn't in his interest.
"It's alright, it's alright!"
Li Chuan nodded with a smile.
"Ah, Miss Goldstein, you always appear where you shouldn't."
Grindelwald looked at Tina again.
Facing such a powerful wizard as Grindelwald, Tina was clearly a bit nervous, but she still mustered the courage to reply:
"I only appear where I am needed!"
Grindelwald shook his head, finally stopping there and fixing his gaze on Newt.
"After you were arrested last night, your teacher sent several letters overnight. He was extremely protective of you, claiming you were his favorite student and would absolutely not attack Muggles."
"Can you tell me what makes Albus Dumbledore like you so much?"
"I cannot answer your question because I don't know either."
Newt raised his wand, replying with a cautious expression.
"Is that so? Then go die!"
Grindelwald raised his hand and quickly pointed his wand at Newt, instantly casting a green beam of magic:
"Avada Kedavra!"
Seeing this, Li Chuan couldn't help but twitch his mouth.
Indeed, jealousy makes one unrecognizable. Grindelwald hadn't used the Killing Curse against anyone else just now, but only when facing Dumbledore's favorite student, Newt, did he immediately resort to the Killing Curse.
Fortunately, Newt reacted very quickly, swiftly dodging Grindelwald's Killing Curse with a side roll.
And Tina, as expected of one of the Magical Congress of the United States of America's top Aurors, also quickly cast an Arming Charm with her wand at the same time Grindelwald cast his spell.
This forced Grindelwald to interrupt his pursuit of Newt and wave his wand to deflect Tina's spell.
However, just as he finished deflecting Tina's spell, he felt a jolt in his heart, because Li Chuan also pulled out a long spear that he had prepared earlier from his small bag and thrust it towards Grindelwald.
While thrusting with his left hand, he simultaneously cast a Stupefy with his right hand.
Grindelwald deflected the Stupefy with a wave of his wand. What truly made his heart pound was the spear; its speed was incredibly fast and its tip unpredictable, giving him the feeling that if he didn't defend, his body would instantly have dozens of holes.
He had no choice but to extend his left hand and use a spell to control the spear, stopping it from thrusting towards him, and began releasing dark magic attacks towards Li Chuan.
As Li Chuan moved his hand and felt the spear being held in place, he immediately let go and retreated. His body swayed left and right like a willow branch swaying in the wind, dodging Grindelwald's dark magic.
To be honest, with Li Chuan's magic level after only learning for over two months, even with Tom's memories, his previous practice with Muggles, and Old Manu's guidance,
It was impossible for him to reach the same level as Tina and Newt, especially since he couldn't use the Unforgivable Curses he was most proficient with.
But fortunately, his physical fitness was exceptionally strong under the enhancement of Chakra. While his spellcasting speed and power were inferior to Tina and Newt, his dodging ability was maxed out, making it difficult for Grindelwald to hit him.
Moreover, he had stored several hundred long spears in his small bag beforehand.
"Whoosh!"
After retreating this time, he simply pulled back to create distance and directly used the spears as throwing weapons, hurling them forcefully towards Grindelwald, forcing Grindelwald to continuously cast moving spells with his free hand to deflect the spears.
Similarly, Newt and Tina, due to Li Chuan's distraction, also launched attacks on Grindelwald from different directions.
Just like this, a situation like this appeared in the hall of the Magical Congress of the United States of America.
Grindelwald was constantly deflecting the spears shot from Li Chuan's side with his left hand, while simultaneously waving his wand to deflect the spells from the three of them, occasionally launching magical counterattacks.
In reality, the main person restraining Grindelwald at the moment wasn't Tina and Newt, but Li Chuan.
Firstly, Li Chuan's non-stop spears forced Grindelwald to cast spells with only one hand holding his wand. Secondly, even so, his spellcasting speed alone was faster than Tina, Newt, and Li Chuan individually.
This meant that when he counterattacked with magic, Tina and Newt had to first defend or awkwardly dodge, having to pause before they could continue their attack.
And at this time, they could only rely on Li Chuan, because his physical dodging ability was too strong. Even if Grindelwald directed all his magical attacks towards him, he could still accurately dodge them.
Furthermore, dodging did not hinder him from continuing to cast spells and throw spears at all; even performing a 360-degree spin in mid-air didn't affect him in the slightest.
Using the Killing Curse once again forced Newt and Tina to dodge awkwardly. Grindelwald freed up both hands and used the move he had previously used against the Aurors on Li Chuan.
Li Chuan only felt a massive force lift him up out of nowhere, then violently slam him towards the ground, while simultaneously his hands were bound behind his back.
"Break free!"
With an angry roar, he exerted force throughout his body, his muscles and bones creaking. First, he straightened his legs with brute force to stand steadily on the ground, then his arms swelled, directly tearing apart the binding force.
Why are many control and binding spells ineffective against large magical creatures? It's not just because of the magical resistance of large magical creatures, but more importantly, their strength is too great to be restrained at all.
If a full-body binding curse like Petrificus Totalus hits a witch, basically the witch cannot move any part of their body except their eyes, because the strength of a witch is not much different from that of an ordinary person.
However, Petrificus Totalus simply cannot restrain magical creatures with great strength like trolls, Horned Serpents, and Erumpents.
Li Chuan's physical fitness, combined with the enhancement of Chakra, was actually not much weaker than some large magical creatures if truly calculated.
That's why he could break free from Grindelwald's magic, which combined object moving and binding, with his bare hands.
Seeing that Li Chuan had actually broken free from his magic using brute force, a rare trace of surprise appeared on Grindelwald's face.
If Li Chuan had broken free using magic, he truly wouldn't have been so surprised, but doing it with brute force was indeed somewhat beyond his understanding.
As soon as he broke free, without waiting for Grindelwald to continue attacking, Li Chuan resumed his spear-throwing path. Spears shot out again, and his magic wasn't idle either.
Over there, Tina and Newt also recovered from their awkward situation and continued to cast spells at Grindelwald. The situation returned to how it was before.
The three of them attacking together couldn't harm Grindelwald, but they successfully prevented him from leaving the building to attack Muggles in this tricky manner, delaying until Picquery arrived again with more Aurors and competent witches.
