A certain Hogwarts rune professor

Chapter 439 Adventure at the Bottom of the Lake ([-])

On the shore, Ludo Bagman shouted excitedly in a loud voice: "Look, Miss Granger has successfully knocked out a salmon. That salmon is at least two feet long! Is this some kind of rare talent?"

Fred and George laughed and said, "Hermione probably won't be happy to hear that."

"Oh, Professor McGonagall reminded me," Ludo Bagman continued, "That's the power of ancient runes. To be honest, I don't know much about this subject. Isn't it only used to translate ancient documents? ...And regarding the previous practice of the Waggadu warriors giving up their wands, the judges concluded that since the rules did not clearly state that they could not give up their wands, it was within the allowed range, although this behavior would cause difficulties in recycling... "

"Let's go back to the game, the champion of Ilvermorny has successfully challenged the purple level, and then he will face a choice: a talisman, or an ice bomb, or-see, he chose the second, It can freeze a lake in a small area."

"Durmstrang's Krum is already close to the area where Grindylow exists. His not-so-successful shark transformation only added two gills and a shark tooth to him. Honestly, I don't want him The row of fine fangs in his mouth will come in handy-back to the topic, Krum is worthy of being an international Quidditch star, and his excellent physique allows him to swim forward with a wand in his mouth, not to mention he accidentally discovered A golden gem that made itself grow to two feet..."

"Oh, bad! He was surrounded, and a dozen Grindyllos found him. If it was in a normal state, these little things would not be able to help him at all, but now it is different from the past. Can he still cast spells flexibly? Yes, he I chose to avoid it wisely and gave up that blue checkpoint..."

In the Black Lake, Hermione is facing a choice.

After she successfully solved the puzzle, a hollow voice told her that she could get a reward. The options included: any question within the rules; the terrain of a small area around her; and a ten-second message to teammates.

Hermione was very excited about every option, and after some weighing, she chose the one she needed the most at the moment - the terrain in a small area around it.

The hollow voice repeated her options, and after a few seconds of silence, a map appeared in the air, and Hermione's eyes lit up, firmly remembering the golden and purple dots that appeared on the map.

On the other hand, Harry completed the Iron Armor Charm a few minutes ago - he almost repeated the development process of this spell, fortunately he was diligent in going to Room [-] a few days ago, and Professor Haip's memory is not good Things to do, speak in more detail.

His Humanoid Iron Armor Charm looks like a misshapen Bubblehead Charm, except that it covers the whole body, which makes his movements much slower than normal speed, but anyway, he barely gains the ability to get out of the protective shield.

After thinking for a few seconds, he put one hand out of the protective cover and touched the icy lake water. The colorful ball fish was finally tired, and he didn't know where to rest. Harry took a deep breath, and the whole body When a person steps into the water, he is like a squeezed and deformed air bubble. The limbs are still close to the body, and the head, chest and abdomen are bulging. If you lie on the ground, you will be no different from a toad.

Maybe it would be easier that way, Harry thought bitterly.

He swam some distance, as he always did in Quidditch matches - taking the high ground and looking down on the Snitch - only this time he was looking for targets in the water.

In front of his eyes was a strange, dark and hazy scene, large patches of black and dark green intertwined with each other, soft algae swaying like strips of cloth, and some bright pebbles mixed in the dark soil, but that was not what he wanted looking for.

He first found the blue light shining like a star, the wisdom level... well, Harry remembered the location, and decided to look for it again. This time he found the purple light, which is the level that needs to be fought.

After hesitating for a while, Harry decided to challenge the purple level. He successfully arrived at the little purple house. The process of entering the air from the lake water caused goosebumps on his body, and then he suddenly felt something swept over him. In his own brain, the effect of practicing Occlumency appeared, and he immediately resisted the invasion of this unknown force.

"Huh..." Harry breathed a sigh of relief, after all he was not attacked.

He went into the little purple house and searched inside, but found nothing.He was stunned, what's going on... What about the test?Harry couldn't figure it out, until he suddenly thought of a possibility... the invading force just now, couldn't it be a test?
Harry relaxed his mind, waited quietly for a few seconds, and then, with a flash in front of his eyes, he found himself in a spacious square.A kneeling hippogriff stood up and looked at him menacingly with outstretched wings.

Harry grinned.It's a half-horse, half-bird creature that's kind of odd-looking, but Harry's friends with a hippogriff named Buckbeak, whom he's already familiar with, and who loves their natural-looking fur : Colors ranging from dark gray, bronze, red and white, to shiny maroon and finally jet black.

Bow, don't blink, don't dodge... Time seems to be back to the last school year, and Harry quickly became friends with it.But it insisted that Harry ride it and fly around. Harry was worried about how to pass the checkpoint. After hearing this suggestion, he tried to follow suit. When the Hippogriff landed smoothly, the sound of passing the checkpoint followed. Appear.

"Peaceful pass, please make a choice: amulet, protect you to move freely underwater for half an hour; cuttlefish ink, cover your sight; fake magic wand, release the Iron Armor Curse three times."

Harry blinked, staring at the hippogriff standing aside, when a brilliant idea occurred to him.

"I want the amulet," he said.

A few minutes later, he returned to the position of the protective cover, and successfully picked up a golden gem on the way, which made him taller, and even the magic power in his body became more active, and he was able to use some simple magic.

"More certainty now," thought Harry, as he put the amulet on himself and canceled the Unskilled Humanoid Charm at the same time.

Holding his wand in one hand and a water snail the size of a Quaffle tucked under his other arm, he took a deep look at the gleaming shield before stepping into the black water of the lake.His body was cold at first, and then warmed up. It was the amulet that played a role. It worked surprisingly well. Harry stretched his body freely in the water, only feeling very cool and comfortable, and his body became very light. .

Harry measured it with his wand. His holly and phoenix feather wand was eleven inches, so he was about a foot seven or eight inches tall now. It took him a while and he managed to find the colored ball hovering near the protective shield Fish, it looks very tired, maybe it's an illusion, but Harry always feels that it has a small bump on its head...

"Come on!" Harry shouted, and the ball fish looked over immediately.Its eyes were almost protruding, and it was obvious that Harry had the advantage of being taller than the one-foot colored ball fish.

Harry smiled happily when he saw the colorful ball fish rushing towards him with its long legs.

Half a minute later, the two legs of the ball fish were knotted, and Harry was out of breath, but he was quite satisfied with his results. He threw the water snail aside to the ball fish, it stopped struggling, and watched Harry kept his eyes open and lowered his head to enjoy the food. In the next ten minutes, Harry weaved a simple knot with water and grass and put it on the ball fish.

Twenty minutes had passed since he woke up.

Then he held his wand and untied the ball fish's knotted legs, "You take me for a swim, and I won't pursue you for pestering me." Harry leaned in front of it and said.

He didn't know if his words had worked, or if it was a credit to the meeting gift, or if it simply wanted to escape, but the colorful ball fish did move, and Harry hurriedly grabbed the rein and wand woven of aquatic plants, and got down. In a second, he was pulled forward to swim.

"Wow!"

Harry moved quickly in the black lake, while using his wand to fiddle with the head of the colored ball fish to control the direction. His goal was the golden gemstones. Although he was delayed for some time, he believed that his speed would be greatly accelerated in the future.

……

In the center of the Black Lake, under the deep and steep cliff, is a sunken rock forest, which is the lowest point of the entire Black Lake, where a small mermaid tribe lives.

They have a unique culture and language, as well as the ability to tame Grindylow.This mermaid has obtained the right to inhabit the Black Lake, and the previous principals have promised not to invade here at will.

But in any case, the Black Lake is a part of Hogwarts. During this tournament, Dumbledore and the mermaid leader reached an agreement that they would be part of the second project.

Felix was sitting in a small square at this time, surrounded by some strange small houses, and many mermaids were watching him from afar.

The mermaid leader is enjoying a gift - a waterproof magic gramophone.

The merfolk leader was a full ten feet tall, with a shark's tooth necklace on his head, and surrounded by merfolk guards with forks, who glanced this way from time to time.

"I'm very satisfied." The mermaid leader said in a low and hoarse voice.
