Chapter 201 Enter the Graveyard! (four in one chapter)
The Christmas ball had just passed, and most of the students were still immersed in the joy of last night. It has to be said that the management of Hogwarts is still relatively strict. At least after yesterday's Christmas ball, there were not a large number of children who bid farewell to virgins.
In the afternoon, Hermione went to class, and Lin Xiao continued to live in Hogwarts as Jax. He usually studied telekinetic magic and spent three hours instructing Hermione at night. He'd also relax, wander around Hogwarts, or watch hapless students being yelled at by Snape.
Time passed day by day like this. In the blink of an eye, there was only the last day left in January. Seeing that February was coming, the time for the second competition was getting closer and closer.
Fortunately, Hermione had found the secret of the golden egg some time ago. Harry didn't tell her this secret. In fact, she discovered it a day earlier than Harry, and she accidentally discovered it while taking a bath.
However, although the secret of the golden egg has been found, Hermione still doesn't know much about the specific content of the second task. The only thing she guessed is that she needs to stay underwater for a long time, which doesn't matter to her at all. Difficulty.
Seek us, where our voices ring, we cannot sing on earth.As you search, think carefully: we have taken your dearest treasure.You have only one hour to find and retrieve what we have taken, after which there is no hope, it is gone forever, never to be seen again.
This is the content of the sound after the golden egg is placed underwater. According to the literal meaning, Hermione needs to stay underwater for at least an hour, and she will have a beloved baby that is placed underwater. A place, and then she needs to look for it, maybe she can't find it, and she may lose it forever.
But what baby would that be?
No matter how clever Hermione is, she would never think of it, because she fixed the 'baby' on a certain object from the beginning, but she didn't think that this 'baby' might refer to someone, someone who was very close to her. friend.
……
February 2th is a special day.
For all those students who have remained at Hogwarts, this is another rare show!
black lake.
Lin Xiao didn't know why this lake was called Black Lake, its water was not black at all, and it had a strange name.
Standing in the midst of the judges, Bagman took a step forward, put his wand against his throat, and cast a 'loud' spell so that his voice could be heard by all.
"Listen, everyone, our warriors are in place. As soon as I whistle, the second project begins. They have a full hour to take back what was stolen from them. I count to three. One...two ……three!"
Shrill whistles echoed in the cold, still air, and cheers and applause erupted from the stands.
Hermione cast a Bubble Charm, and huge bubbles enveloped her entire head.
The next moment she jumped into the lake with a 'plop' and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
There are a lot of aquatic plants growing under the water of the Black Lake. The roots of these aquatic plants are thick and tough. If one is accidentally entangled, it may cause a lot of trouble.
Hermione swam through the water grass forest, and suddenly... she turned her head and looked behind her. She seemed to feel something swimming past her before.
"I heard that there are murlocs living under the Black Lake. I wonder if it's true?" Hermione thought to herself, but her hands kept paddling and swimming forward.
On the shore, Lin Xiao chatted leisurely with Dumbledore next to him. He was not worried about Hermione. Among the three games, this second game was the most relaxing. The most important thing is whoever finds it first takes the shortest time, unless he saves his mission target like Harry and wants to save another one, then he will be attacked by those murlocs.
As for Furong, I can only say that she herself is unlucky, it is purely because the magic spell is not exquisite enough, she was just like this after being slightly frightened, and she is not very good.
Sure enough, only ten minutes later, Hermione surfaced, besides her, she was holding another person with one hand.
It was a female student from Gryffindor, and she was also a roommate in the same room as Hermione. They usually have a good relationship. The reason why they chose her was because Dumbledore and the others really didn't know who else they could choose. up.
Ron had to leave it to Harry, and Lin Xiao was Hermione's dance partner at the last Christmas ball. They couldn't let Lin Xiao be the rescued object, could they?So I had to settle for the next best thing and choose this Hermione's roommate.
Hermione was the first to go ashore, and No. 2 came up after she had been ashore for a while, and then No. 3.
Of course, there was actually one person who landed earlier than Hermione, but she didn't succeed in rescuing her target, so she must be last in line.
Seeing that the other four people had already come up, the time was getting closer and closer to the one-hour limit, but Harry still did not appear on the lake.
"Teacher, nothing will happen to Harry, right?" Hermione looked at the lake worriedly.
"Don't worry, he will come up soon." Lin Xiao said with a smile, "And I'm sure he will snatch your first place."
Hermione looked at Lin Xiao suspiciously, not understanding what the teacher meant.
Even though Harry was the last one, how could it be possible to snatch his No.1?
But Hermione didn't care if Harry would snatch her first place, anyway, he was her good friend, as long as he didn't get snatched by the other three.
"Oh, it's out!" Lin Xiao suddenly looked at the lake and said.
"Where is it?" Hermione hurriedly turned her head to look, at this moment, she heard an explosion, and the water splashed all over the lake, and then several black shadows rushed up from the water.
Hermione took a closer look and found that the three black figures rushing out of the water turned out to be Harry, Ron and the little girl of Beauxbatons.
"My God~! He saved two people!" Hermione exclaimed and ran over.
At this time, other people also walked over one after another, and Dumbledore and other referees arrived here first.
Fleur, who had landed early in the morning, was excitedly expressing her gratitude to Harry, and Ron, who was shameless beside him, also took the opportunity to get a free kiss, and looked at the boys beside him with envy.
After discussion by Dumbledore and other referees, it was finally decided to award No.2 to Harry, who bravely rescued two people. The reason why he was not given the first place was because Hermione's speed was too fast. Harry wanted to reach the place where the hostages were tied at the bottom of the lake earlier, so after discussion, he was given No.2.
In this way, the first and second names of the second game all fell on the Hogwarts side, and both of them were from Gryffindor College, which made everyone who heard the news Gryffindor students will walk with their heads high for a long time to come, as if they are the ones who have won the honor.
After the relatively simple second competition, Bagman announced the start time of the third competition, which was set for the evening of June 6, which was very close to the end of the school year. After this last game, when the Triwizard Tournament is over, the school year will be over.
However, there are still four full months before that day. During these four months, the five warriors can try their best to make sufficient preparations to meet the challenges four months later.
At present, Hermione's score is far ahead and ranked first, followed by Harry and Cedric, and then Krum and Fleur.
Regarding this result, neither Karkaroff nor Maxim were very happy. After the second competition, the two of them had been livid. Obviously, the five warriors and three Hogwarts were ranked in the top three. However, the warriors of the two schools they came here from thousands of miles only ranked fourth and fifth, which made them feel very embarrassed.
But no matter how embarrassing they were, they could only accept it. Fortunately, there was one last match, which was the real highlight. As long as they performed well in the end, it couldn't be said that they had missed the championship.
Once people get busy, they will feel that time flies, and the four months really seem to pass in the blink of an eye.
Today is June 6th, and in ten hours or so it will be time for the last match of the Triwizard Tournament to begin. The five warriors have undergone four months of preparation. It can be said that they have made absolutely sufficient preparations to face this game.
The game was approaching, and Harry and the others were sitting at the long table having breakfast and discussing the evening game.
They don't know the specific content yet, but when they think that this competition is held at night, they know that it will definitely not be that simple, and it is the third competition, which cannot be simple.
Hermione was holding today's new issue of the Daily Prophet, the newspaper with the largest circulation in the wizarding world in Britain.
She opened the newspaper, glanced at the front page, and immediately sprayed a mouthful of pumpkin juice all over the newspaper.
"What's the matter?" Harry and Ron asked, staring at her together.
"Nothing." Hermione hurriedly tried to hide the newspaper, but was snatched by Ron. He stared at the headline and said, "Impossible, but today, the old cow."
"What?" Harry asked, "Rita Skeeter again?"
"No." Ron, like Hermione, wanted to hide the newspaper.
"Write about me?" Harry asked.
"No," said Ron in a tone of complete disbelief.But before Harry could ask for the paper, Draco Malfoy from the Slytherin table across the hall yelled.
"Hey, Potter! Potter! How's your head? Are you all right? You won't be mad at us, are you?" Malfoy also held a copy of the "Daily Prophet" in his hand, and the Slytherin students Snickerd, turning to see Harry's reaction.
"Show me," Harry said to Ron, "show me."
Ron reluctantly handed over the newspaper, and as soon as Harry opened it, he saw a picture of himself, and the headline on it stood out:
harry potter -
upset, emotionally dangerous
Guest correspondent Rita Skeeter reports: The boy who defeated You-Know-Who is emotionally unstable and potentially dangerous.The recent revelations of startling evidence of Harry Potter's strange behavior have cast doubt on his suitability for a competition as demanding as the Triwizard Tournament, or even Hogwarts.
The Daily Prophet exclusively revealed that Potter was often sick at school and told people that the scar on his forehead was aching (the scar was the mark left by the poisonous curse that You-Know-Who tried to kill him).During last Monday's divination class, a Daily Prophet reporter witnessed Potter rushing out of the classroom, saying the scars were so painful that he couldn't continue the class.
The senior specialist at St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries said Potter's brain may have been affected by You-Know-Who's magic, insisting that the scar's still aching scar was a sign of confusion.
"He could also be faking it," said one expert, "maybe trying to get attention.
But the Daily Prophet has also uncovered some disturbing aspects of Harry Potter that Hogwarts headmaster Albus Dumbledore has been careful to cover up.
"Potter can speak Parseltongue," revealed Draco Malfoy, a fourth-year Hogwarts student. "A lot of students were attacked two years ago, and most people thought Potter was behind it, because everyone saw it with their own eyes." He set a snake to bite a boy in a duel club. But it was covered up. He also made friends with werewolves and giants. We think he will do anything for power."
Parseltongue (the ability to speak to snakes) has long been considered black magic.In fact, the most famous Parseltongue of our time is none other than You-Know-Who himself.A member of the Defense League against the Dark Arts, who did not want to be named, said he thought any wizard who spoke Parseltongue "would be worth investigating. I'm personally very skeptical of anyone who can talk to snakes, as snakes are often used in the most vicious places." in the dark arts of the world, and has historically been associated with bad people." Similarly, "People who associate with evil things such as werewolves and giants are usually violent".
Albus Dumbledore should consider whether it was appropriate to allow such a boy to participate in the Triwizard Tournament.There are fears that Potter will use the dark arts out of his desire to win.The third competition event will be held tonight.
"Not so fond of me, is it?" Harry said lightly, folding up the newspaper.
Over there in Slytherin, Malfoy, Crabbe, and Goyle were all laughing at him.They tapped their fingers on their foreheads, grimaced like madmen, and stuck out their tongues like snakes.
"How did she know your scar hurt during Divination?" said Ron. "She couldn't have been there, and she couldn't have heard—"
"The window was open," said Harry. "I opened it to get some air."
"You're on the top floor of the North Tower!" said Hermione. "Your voice can't reach the grounds below!"
"Hey, you should be the one who studies eavesdropping magic!" Harry said, "Tell me how she knows!"
"I was thinking about it!" said Hermione, "but... but..." Hermione's face suddenly had a strange dreamy expression, and she slowly raised a hand to stroke her hair.
"Are you all right?" Ron asked, frowning at her.
"It's okay," Hermione said breathlessly, and she smoothed her hair again, then raised her hand to her mouth as if holding a walkie-talkie.
Harry and Ron looked at each other.
"I've got an idea," said Hermione, looking ahead blankly, "I think I get it... because then no one can see... not even Moody... she can climb onto the ledge... ...but it's not allowed...it's definitely not allowed...I think we got her! Give me two seconds - go to the library and check!" Hermione grabbed her bag ran out of the auditorium.
"She's still so reckless." Ron said, looking at Hermione's back, "I don't think she'll ever change that."
"Maybe she really knows something," said Harry. "I mean, she's been studying with Mr. Jax, and Mr. Jax should have told her something like that."
"Maybe." Ron said casually. "Harry, I envy you two. You don't have to take exams!"
As the warriors of the Triwizard Tournament, neither Harry nor Hermione need to take this year's exam. All they need to consider is to prepare hard for tonight's competition.
And Ron couldn't have such preferential treatment, especially since he hated exams very much. If it was Hermione, he wouldn't say such things.
"I'd rather take the exam," Harry said with a wry smile, "at least the exam won't make me so uneasy."
Just when Harry was about to say something, he and Ron saw Professor McGonagall walking towards them not far away.
"Potter, the warriors assembled in the conference room next to the auditorium after breakfast," she said.
"But it's game night!" Harry accidentally spilled scrambled eggs on his body, thinking he had misremembered the time.
"I know, Potter," said Professor McGonagall, "the relatives of the warriors are invited to watch the finals, and you can meet." She walked away after speaking.
Harry stared at her back in a daze.
"She doesn't think the Dursleys are coming?" he asked Ron blankly.
"I don't know," said Ron. "Harry, I have to hurry. I'm going to be late for the exam. See you later."
Harry finished his breakfast in the gradually deserted Great Hall.He saw Fleur Delacour get up from the Ravenclaw table and walk into the meeting room with Cedric.After a while Krum slouched away too.
Harry sat still, he really didn't want to go.
He had no relatives—no relatives who would risk their lives to see him.But just as he stood up, planning to go to the library to study some spells, the door of the meeting room opened, and Cedric poked his head out.
"Harry, come on, they're waiting for you!"
Harry stood up in bewilderment. There was no way the Dursleys were coming.
He walked across the hall and pushed the door into the conference room, where Cedric and his parents stood.In the corner of the room, Viktor Krum speaks rapid Bulgarian to his dark-haired parents, from whom he inherited his aquiline nose.On the other side, Fleur was chatting non-stop with her mother in French.Fleur's little sister, Gabrielle, holds her mother's hand.She waved to Harry, who waved back, grinning.In the past is Hermione who just ran away. She didn't know when Harry got here one step ahead, and she was talking excitedly with her parents.
Then he saw Mrs. Weasley and Bill standing in front of the fireplace, smiling at him.
"I didn't think so!" said Mrs Weasley enthusiastically.
Harry walked forward with a smile on his face. He really didn't expect Mrs. Weasley to come back.
"We wanted to come and watch you play, Harry!" She leaned down and kissed his cheek.
"How are you?" Bill smiled, shaking Harry's hand. "Charlie would like to come too, but he couldn't get away. He said your fight with the Horntail was too good to be true."
Harry noticed Fleur Delacour looking at Bill with interest over his mother's shoulder.You could tell she wasn't averse to long hair and earrings with fangs.
"That's very kind of you," Harry said softly to Mrs. Weasley, "I'd like to—Dursley—"
"Hmm." Mrs Weasley pursed her lips.She had always avoided criticizing the Dursleys in front of Harry, but her eyes lit up every time she heard their names.
"It's good to be back," Bill said, surveying the conference room (the Fat Lady's girlfriend, Violet, winked at him in the frame), "I haven't seen this place in five years. Is that picture of the mad knight still there? Sir Cadogan?"
"Oh, it's still there," said Harry.He had met Sir Cadogan last year.
"Where's the fat lady?" Bill asked.
"She was there when I was at school," said Mrs. Weasley, "and she gave me a hard time one day when I got back to the dormitory at four o'clock in the morning—"
"What are you doing outside the dorm at four in the morning?" Bill said, looking at his mother in surprise.
Mrs Weasley smiled, her eyes sparkling.
"I went for a walk with your father. He was caught by the housekeeper Apollyon Prinlo at the time—your father still has the mark on him."
"Take us around, Harry?" Bill said.
"Okay," said Harry.
They walked toward the door leading to the Great Hall, and as they passed Amos Diggory he turned his head.
"It's you?" He looked Harry up and down and said, "Cedric's score has caught up, are you less arrogant?"
"What?" Harry asked.
"Leave him alone," Cedric whispered to Harry, frowning behind his father's back, "he's been mad since Rita Skeeter wrote about the Triwizard Tournament - you know , that woman described you as the only Hogwarts warrior."
"He didn't try to correct her either, did he?" Harry heard Amos Diggory say as they walked out the door with Mrs. Weasley and Bill, "but . . . you'll let him see, Seid. You beat him once, didn't you?"
"Rita Skeeter makes a fuss about nothing, Amos!" said Mrs. Weasley angrily. "You work in the Ministry, I thought you knew!"
Mr. Diggory seemed about to lose his temper, but his wife put a hand on his arm, so he just shrugged and turned away.
The warriors were enjoying a rare happy time with their families. In the afternoon, Hermione brought her parents to find Lin Xiao, and introduced Lin Xiao to the Grangers. Although Lin Xiao knew them very well, but The Grangers didn't think that their daughter's teacher, Zeng Jin, was their pet cat.
Hermione didn't have to go to class all afternoon, the other students were taking exams, only the warriors had time to accompany their families, and Lin Xiao was accompanied by Hermione like a brat, and they walked around half of Hogwarts with their family. Go to those more dangerous places.
The Grangers were very curious about the place where the wizards lived, and they were even more surprised to see the portraits walking in the frame.
For Muggles, everything around wizards is so magical. This day allowed the Grangers to see so many things that they had never known before.
Happy time always passed quickly, and the sky gradually darkened. Hermione and the five warriors were also asked to temporarily separate from their families and go to the rest area to make final preparations.
The venue for the match was the original Quidditch pitch, but at this moment, the pitch became even an acquaintance like Harry wondered if he had gone to the wrong place. The huge pitch turned into a huge plant maze.
In the stands, their family members, students and professors had already taken their seats. Several referees stood at the front. Dumbledore asked Harry and the others to stand where they were, waiting for the final introduction before the start of the game.
After Bagman's brief introduction, the plants at the entrance of the maze were automatically separated, revealing the deep passage inside.
"Okay, let's go in." Lin Xiao said to Hermione beside him, "I'm here for everything, don't worry, just play with all your strength!"
Hermione nodded, took a deep breath, exchanged glances with Harry beside her, and then walked towards the entrance of the maze.
The five warriors entered the maze from different entrances. Lin Xiao didn't give Hermione any hints. He believed that Hermione would be able to find the location of the trophy by virtue of her own ability.
'Hoo~! '
A gust of wind blew past, and the entrance to the maze was completely sealed.
Hermione turned her head and glanced at the closed entrance behind her, "It's okay, you can definitely do it!"
Calming her nervousness, Hermione quickly pulled out her wand, and a fluorescent flash made the tip of the wand light up with a beam of soft light, instantly illuminating an area under her feet.
There was only one way forward, and there was nothing to choose at this time, so Hermione walked straight ahead.
She has never gone through the maze, but she has played puzzles. For this kind of game that tests luck and intelligence, Hermione is confident that she will never be inferior to anyone else.When she arrived at the first fork, she stood at the intersection and did not immediately choose a certain path, but waved her magic wand and swayed a silver-white spot of light.
"Magic net mark!"
This is a magic that Lin Xiao taught her recently. Its main function is to detect the way, and the maximum range can detect every corner within a radius of a hundred miles.
Of course, that was the limit that Lin Xiao could reach when he used it. It would be impossible for Hermione to be so powerful.
The silver-white spot of light drifted forward, left, and right, and soon disappeared at the turning at the end.
Hermione stood still, until the dots of light came back here a few minutes later, and then she started to walk towards the road on the left.
Along the way, Hermione almost relied on the magic of the magic net mark to move forward. Sometimes she had to make her own choice. After all, her strength was limited, and the magic net mark could not detect too far away. When the directions are not dead ends, she has to choose one of them to move forward.
The strange thing is that she didn't meet the other four people along the way, just when Hermione was wondering where they all went, she suddenly raised her head and looked up to the sky.
In the sky, a fiery red beam of light rose into the sky and exploded directly in the sky.
It was a signal for help, and as long as this signal was issued, the professors would go to rescue, but it also meant that the rescued object lost the qualification to continue the game.
"I don't know who it could be?" Hermione lowered her head and thought to herself.
Not long after the game started, someone sent out a distress signal, which made Hermione's heart heavy.
Moving forward, she couldn't help but become more cautious. Every step she took, she had to carefully make sure that the ground in front of her was free of traps.
"Passed out!"
"Huh?" Hermione stopped suddenly, pricked up her ears and listened carefully.
"There are many obstacles!"
There was another incantation, and Hermione recognized it as Harry's voice.
"It seems that it wasn't Harry who asked for help just now." Hermione couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, but the next moment her heart beat up again.
Harry was doing magic, so obviously he was in danger, or it certainly couldn't be.
"No, I have to go and have a look!" Hermione quickened her pace.
A few minutes later, she arrived at the place where the voice came from before, and she found that there was no sign of Harry except for a little battle trace on the ground.
"He shouldn't have gone far." Hermione continued to walk forward. She had only walked for a few minutes when she suddenly heard a loud noise, followed by a ghastly green magic beam passing by her eyes, hitting several Some plants in the distance.
"This is... the Cruciatus Curse!" Hermione stood there in surprise, and soon she realized that she poked her head out to look in the direction from which the Cruciatus Curse hit.
She finally saw the others, it was Victor and Cedric, and she saw Harry hiding on the other side, and everyone was here except Fleur.
Needless to say, Fleur must have sent the distress call just now, Hermione thought.
"Putting the heart and scraping the bone!"
It was another Cruciatus Curse. Hermione could tell that Victor didn't have much research on the Cruciatus Curse, and his technique was very jerky.
In fact, he just attacked Cedric, but Cedric noticed and avoided him, which was the Cruciatus Curse that flew past Hermione's eyes.
"Swoon!" Harry rushed out at this moment, pointing his wand at Victor.
"Passed out!"
The same magic that stunned and counteracted Harry in mid-air, Victor's dead gray eyes looked at Harry with a terrifying expression on his face.
At this time, Cedric had already fallen to the ground, and the second Cruciatus Curse hit him, making him experience pain that he had never experienced in his life. At this moment, he felt that he had no strength to get up.
"Victor, what are you doing?" Harry yelled loudly at Victor.
But Victor ignored him, and after hesitating for a while, he turned around and ran away.
Harry saw that he was hesitating whether to attack the fleeing Victor, when a magic beam suddenly flew past his ear and hit the fleeing Victor directly.
"All petrochemical!"
The petrification spell was cast by Hermione.
Harry turned his head, relieved when he saw it was Hermione.
"Scared me to death, Victor seemed crazy." Harry said, patting his chest.
At this moment he walked up to Cedric and reached out to pull him up.
"Are you all right?" Harry asked.
The pained expression still remained on Cedric's face, and he shook his head slightly after hearing Harry's words.
"It's okay, it's just a little uncomfortable," he said.
"You should be glad that Victor doesn't have much research on the Cruciatus Curse." Hermione also came over at this time, she glanced at the petrified Victor over there, and said, "He should have been hit by the Imperius Curse, Someone is controlling him to attack you."
"Someone is controlling him? Who is it?" Harry and Cedric turned to look at Hermione.
But Hermione shook her head, "I don't know, but I'm sure he's not a good person."
Harry and Cedric smiled helplessly. They also knew that the other party must not be a good person. Otherwise, how could they control Victor with the Imperius Curse, and attack them with the Cruciatus Curse.
"Are we going to keep him here?" Harry asked suddenly, pointing at Victor, who was lying on the ground.
"Send a distress signal, we can't let him just lie here." Hermione said as she swung the wand in the sky, and a fiery red beam shot into the sky.
"Okay, let's go."
The two nodded, and stopped looking at Victor over there, and walked directly to the other side.
After that, the three of them did not separate. Hermione and Harry were good friends, so there was no need to separate. Cedric was also rescued by Harry just now, and he was regarded as a friend in his heart, so he did not propose to separate. idea.
As for Harry, these questions never occurred to him.
Moving forward, Hermione let Harry and Cedric see what real pathfinding magic is. Her magic net mark is much better than Cedric and Harry's methods. face of envy.
"It's great to have a good teacher!" Cedric looked enviously at Hermione who was walking ahead, and he found sadly that he and Harry had become supporting roles, although he seemed to be a supporting role.
"You have a good father, too," said Harry.
"Dumbledore took good care of you too." Cedric said with a smile.
The two of them were chatting in the back, while Hermione, who was walking in front, cast the magic network mark every time she reached an intersection. Nearly half an hour passed in this stop-and-go manner.
Finally, they found that there was only one road left, and from a distance, all three of them saw the fluorescent trophy at the deepest point of that road.
The three of them stopped in unison and turned their heads to look at each other.
"Let's run together and see who gets it first, how about that?" Cedric suggested.
Hermione and Harry nodded without thinking twice.
"Then...start!"
The three of them rushed out almost at the same time. Although Hermione was a girl, Lin Xiao had been preparing some medicine and food for her during this time, and she was not inferior to Harry in terms of physical strength.
Originally, Cedric should run faster than the two because of his age, but he was hit by Victor's Cruciatus Curse before. Although he is much better now, this will still affect his performance, so three Humans are almost as fast.
'Whoo~! ''Whoo~! ''Whoo~! '...
Just as the three of them were running wildly, thick vines suddenly extended from the roots of the plants on both sides of the passage. These vines seemed to be trying to prevent them from getting close to the trophy, constantly trying to interfere with them.
The three almost tried their best to avoid these stumbling vines, and their speed could not help but slow down greatly for a while.
"Shattered to pieces!" Sedris cast a crushing spell on the vines blocking the road in front of him, but the effect was not satisfactory.
"These guys are resistant to magic!" he yelled.
"Shenfeng Wuying!" Hermione waved her wand, and several energy blades cut on the vines in front of her, unexpectedly only cutting off two or three vines, leaving only wounds on more vines.
"No, these guys are very resistant to magic!" Hermione stopped casting magic and started running intently.
Seeing the movements of the two, Harry no longer wanted to experiment. He put all his thoughts on his feet, for fear that one of them would accidentally fall.
Sudden……
"Ah~!"
Cedric's limbs were still a little stiff when running because of the Cruciatus Curse before. At this time, he accidentally failed to avoid a stumbling vine, and the whole person threw himself forward and fell to the ground.
Suddenly, a large number of vines came over and tied his feet tightly.
"Cedric!" Harry turned around and saw this scene, and his footsteps couldn't help but pause.
"Harry?" Hermione also slowed down her pace, looking at Harry next to her.
"Help me!" Cedric desperately grabbed the ground, his wand flew to nowhere, for a wizard who lost his wand, it was like cutting off his hands, he could only shout loudly Call for help from Harry and Hermione.
Harry hesitated for a moment, then immediately turned around and ran back. Hermione looked at it, but didn't say anything, and turned around and followed Harry to save Cedric.
"Smashed to pieces!"
"Shen Feng has no shadow!"
Although the anti-magic ability of these vines is very good, they can't withstand the repeated torture of the two, especially Hermione's God Feng Wuying, who can always cut off several vines every time. Those vines seem to be conscious, and they are a little scared Get closer to Hermione.
Soon, Cedric was supported by the two and ran out. At this time, the maze changed again, and the road behind them suddenly disappeared. Of course, those annoying vines accompanied the news.
The three of them looked at each other and laughed out loud.
"Let's go together, let's go out with the trophy together." Harry said, his eyes looked at Hermione, Hermione was the strongest among the three, in fact, the trophy should belong to her.
Hermione met Harry's gaze, but nodded with a smile.
"I'm fine," she said.
"You..." Cedric was speechless for a while, and he walked to the trophy with the support of the two.
"He's beautiful," said Harry.
"Take it together?" He raised his head and looked at the two of them.
"it is good."
Three hands reached out to the trophy together and held three positions of the trophy at the same time.
The next moment, the surrounding scenery suddenly began to distort and deform, as if using apparition. In the blink of an eye, the three of them appeared in a gloomy cemetery together with the trophy.
"Wow~Wow~!"
A few crows stood on a dead tree and called.
The three people who fell to the ground stood up in surprise, looking at the surrounding environment in confusion.
"Is this also a competition event?" Harry asked suspiciously.
(End of this chapter)
The Christmas ball had just passed, and most of the students were still immersed in the joy of last night. It has to be said that the management of Hogwarts is still relatively strict. At least after yesterday's Christmas ball, there were not a large number of children who bid farewell to virgins.
In the afternoon, Hermione went to class, and Lin Xiao continued to live in Hogwarts as Jax. He usually studied telekinetic magic and spent three hours instructing Hermione at night. He'd also relax, wander around Hogwarts, or watch hapless students being yelled at by Snape.
Time passed day by day like this. In the blink of an eye, there was only the last day left in January. Seeing that February was coming, the time for the second competition was getting closer and closer.
Fortunately, Hermione had found the secret of the golden egg some time ago. Harry didn't tell her this secret. In fact, she discovered it a day earlier than Harry, and she accidentally discovered it while taking a bath.
However, although the secret of the golden egg has been found, Hermione still doesn't know much about the specific content of the second task. The only thing she guessed is that she needs to stay underwater for a long time, which doesn't matter to her at all. Difficulty.
Seek us, where our voices ring, we cannot sing on earth.As you search, think carefully: we have taken your dearest treasure.You have only one hour to find and retrieve what we have taken, after which there is no hope, it is gone forever, never to be seen again.
This is the content of the sound after the golden egg is placed underwater. According to the literal meaning, Hermione needs to stay underwater for at least an hour, and she will have a beloved baby that is placed underwater. A place, and then she needs to look for it, maybe she can't find it, and she may lose it forever.
But what baby would that be?
No matter how clever Hermione is, she would never think of it, because she fixed the 'baby' on a certain object from the beginning, but she didn't think that this 'baby' might refer to someone, someone who was very close to her. friend.
……
February 2th is a special day.
For all those students who have remained at Hogwarts, this is another rare show!
black lake.
Lin Xiao didn't know why this lake was called Black Lake, its water was not black at all, and it had a strange name.
Standing in the midst of the judges, Bagman took a step forward, put his wand against his throat, and cast a 'loud' spell so that his voice could be heard by all.
"Listen, everyone, our warriors are in place. As soon as I whistle, the second project begins. They have a full hour to take back what was stolen from them. I count to three. One...two ……three!"
Shrill whistles echoed in the cold, still air, and cheers and applause erupted from the stands.
Hermione cast a Bubble Charm, and huge bubbles enveloped her entire head.
The next moment she jumped into the lake with a 'plop' and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
There are a lot of aquatic plants growing under the water of the Black Lake. The roots of these aquatic plants are thick and tough. If one is accidentally entangled, it may cause a lot of trouble.
Hermione swam through the water grass forest, and suddenly... she turned her head and looked behind her. She seemed to feel something swimming past her before.
"I heard that there are murlocs living under the Black Lake. I wonder if it's true?" Hermione thought to herself, but her hands kept paddling and swimming forward.
On the shore, Lin Xiao chatted leisurely with Dumbledore next to him. He was not worried about Hermione. Among the three games, this second game was the most relaxing. The most important thing is whoever finds it first takes the shortest time, unless he saves his mission target like Harry and wants to save another one, then he will be attacked by those murlocs.
As for Furong, I can only say that she herself is unlucky, it is purely because the magic spell is not exquisite enough, she was just like this after being slightly frightened, and she is not very good.
Sure enough, only ten minutes later, Hermione surfaced, besides her, she was holding another person with one hand.
It was a female student from Gryffindor, and she was also a roommate in the same room as Hermione. They usually have a good relationship. The reason why they chose her was because Dumbledore and the others really didn't know who else they could choose. up.
Ron had to leave it to Harry, and Lin Xiao was Hermione's dance partner at the last Christmas ball. They couldn't let Lin Xiao be the rescued object, could they?So I had to settle for the next best thing and choose this Hermione's roommate.
Hermione was the first to go ashore, and No. 2 came up after she had been ashore for a while, and then No. 3.
Of course, there was actually one person who landed earlier than Hermione, but she didn't succeed in rescuing her target, so she must be last in line.
Seeing that the other four people had already come up, the time was getting closer and closer to the one-hour limit, but Harry still did not appear on the lake.
"Teacher, nothing will happen to Harry, right?" Hermione looked at the lake worriedly.
"Don't worry, he will come up soon." Lin Xiao said with a smile, "And I'm sure he will snatch your first place."
Hermione looked at Lin Xiao suspiciously, not understanding what the teacher meant.
Even though Harry was the last one, how could it be possible to snatch his No.1?
But Hermione didn't care if Harry would snatch her first place, anyway, he was her good friend, as long as he didn't get snatched by the other three.
"Oh, it's out!" Lin Xiao suddenly looked at the lake and said.
"Where is it?" Hermione hurriedly turned her head to look, at this moment, she heard an explosion, and the water splashed all over the lake, and then several black shadows rushed up from the water.
Hermione took a closer look and found that the three black figures rushing out of the water turned out to be Harry, Ron and the little girl of Beauxbatons.
"My God~! He saved two people!" Hermione exclaimed and ran over.
At this time, other people also walked over one after another, and Dumbledore and other referees arrived here first.
Fleur, who had landed early in the morning, was excitedly expressing her gratitude to Harry, and Ron, who was shameless beside him, also took the opportunity to get a free kiss, and looked at the boys beside him with envy.
After discussion by Dumbledore and other referees, it was finally decided to award No.2 to Harry, who bravely rescued two people. The reason why he was not given the first place was because Hermione's speed was too fast. Harry wanted to reach the place where the hostages were tied at the bottom of the lake earlier, so after discussion, he was given No.2.
In this way, the first and second names of the second game all fell on the Hogwarts side, and both of them were from Gryffindor College, which made everyone who heard the news Gryffindor students will walk with their heads high for a long time to come, as if they are the ones who have won the honor.
After the relatively simple second competition, Bagman announced the start time of the third competition, which was set for the evening of June 6, which was very close to the end of the school year. After this last game, when the Triwizard Tournament is over, the school year will be over.
However, there are still four full months before that day. During these four months, the five warriors can try their best to make sufficient preparations to meet the challenges four months later.
At present, Hermione's score is far ahead and ranked first, followed by Harry and Cedric, and then Krum and Fleur.
Regarding this result, neither Karkaroff nor Maxim were very happy. After the second competition, the two of them had been livid. Obviously, the five warriors and three Hogwarts were ranked in the top three. However, the warriors of the two schools they came here from thousands of miles only ranked fourth and fifth, which made them feel very embarrassed.
But no matter how embarrassing they were, they could only accept it. Fortunately, there was one last match, which was the real highlight. As long as they performed well in the end, it couldn't be said that they had missed the championship.
Once people get busy, they will feel that time flies, and the four months really seem to pass in the blink of an eye.
Today is June 6th, and in ten hours or so it will be time for the last match of the Triwizard Tournament to begin. The five warriors have undergone four months of preparation. It can be said that they have made absolutely sufficient preparations to face this game.
The game was approaching, and Harry and the others were sitting at the long table having breakfast and discussing the evening game.
They don't know the specific content yet, but when they think that this competition is held at night, they know that it will definitely not be that simple, and it is the third competition, which cannot be simple.
Hermione was holding today's new issue of the Daily Prophet, the newspaper with the largest circulation in the wizarding world in Britain.
She opened the newspaper, glanced at the front page, and immediately sprayed a mouthful of pumpkin juice all over the newspaper.
"What's the matter?" Harry and Ron asked, staring at her together.
"Nothing." Hermione hurriedly tried to hide the newspaper, but was snatched by Ron. He stared at the headline and said, "Impossible, but today, the old cow."
"What?" Harry asked, "Rita Skeeter again?"
"No." Ron, like Hermione, wanted to hide the newspaper.
"Write about me?" Harry asked.
"No," said Ron in a tone of complete disbelief.But before Harry could ask for the paper, Draco Malfoy from the Slytherin table across the hall yelled.
"Hey, Potter! Potter! How's your head? Are you all right? You won't be mad at us, are you?" Malfoy also held a copy of the "Daily Prophet" in his hand, and the Slytherin students Snickerd, turning to see Harry's reaction.
"Show me," Harry said to Ron, "show me."
Ron reluctantly handed over the newspaper, and as soon as Harry opened it, he saw a picture of himself, and the headline on it stood out:
harry potter -
upset, emotionally dangerous
Guest correspondent Rita Skeeter reports: The boy who defeated You-Know-Who is emotionally unstable and potentially dangerous.The recent revelations of startling evidence of Harry Potter's strange behavior have cast doubt on his suitability for a competition as demanding as the Triwizard Tournament, or even Hogwarts.
The Daily Prophet exclusively revealed that Potter was often sick at school and told people that the scar on his forehead was aching (the scar was the mark left by the poisonous curse that You-Know-Who tried to kill him).During last Monday's divination class, a Daily Prophet reporter witnessed Potter rushing out of the classroom, saying the scars were so painful that he couldn't continue the class.
The senior specialist at St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries said Potter's brain may have been affected by You-Know-Who's magic, insisting that the scar's still aching scar was a sign of confusion.
"He could also be faking it," said one expert, "maybe trying to get attention.
But the Daily Prophet has also uncovered some disturbing aspects of Harry Potter that Hogwarts headmaster Albus Dumbledore has been careful to cover up.
"Potter can speak Parseltongue," revealed Draco Malfoy, a fourth-year Hogwarts student. "A lot of students were attacked two years ago, and most people thought Potter was behind it, because everyone saw it with their own eyes." He set a snake to bite a boy in a duel club. But it was covered up. He also made friends with werewolves and giants. We think he will do anything for power."
Parseltongue (the ability to speak to snakes) has long been considered black magic.In fact, the most famous Parseltongue of our time is none other than You-Know-Who himself.A member of the Defense League against the Dark Arts, who did not want to be named, said he thought any wizard who spoke Parseltongue "would be worth investigating. I'm personally very skeptical of anyone who can talk to snakes, as snakes are often used in the most vicious places." in the dark arts of the world, and has historically been associated with bad people." Similarly, "People who associate with evil things such as werewolves and giants are usually violent".
Albus Dumbledore should consider whether it was appropriate to allow such a boy to participate in the Triwizard Tournament.There are fears that Potter will use the dark arts out of his desire to win.The third competition event will be held tonight.
"Not so fond of me, is it?" Harry said lightly, folding up the newspaper.
Over there in Slytherin, Malfoy, Crabbe, and Goyle were all laughing at him.They tapped their fingers on their foreheads, grimaced like madmen, and stuck out their tongues like snakes.
"How did she know your scar hurt during Divination?" said Ron. "She couldn't have been there, and she couldn't have heard—"
"The window was open," said Harry. "I opened it to get some air."
"You're on the top floor of the North Tower!" said Hermione. "Your voice can't reach the grounds below!"
"Hey, you should be the one who studies eavesdropping magic!" Harry said, "Tell me how she knows!"
"I was thinking about it!" said Hermione, "but... but..." Hermione's face suddenly had a strange dreamy expression, and she slowly raised a hand to stroke her hair.
"Are you all right?" Ron asked, frowning at her.
"It's okay," Hermione said breathlessly, and she smoothed her hair again, then raised her hand to her mouth as if holding a walkie-talkie.
Harry and Ron looked at each other.
"I've got an idea," said Hermione, looking ahead blankly, "I think I get it... because then no one can see... not even Moody... she can climb onto the ledge... ...but it's not allowed...it's definitely not allowed...I think we got her! Give me two seconds - go to the library and check!" Hermione grabbed her bag ran out of the auditorium.
"She's still so reckless." Ron said, looking at Hermione's back, "I don't think she'll ever change that."
"Maybe she really knows something," said Harry. "I mean, she's been studying with Mr. Jax, and Mr. Jax should have told her something like that."
"Maybe." Ron said casually. "Harry, I envy you two. You don't have to take exams!"
As the warriors of the Triwizard Tournament, neither Harry nor Hermione need to take this year's exam. All they need to consider is to prepare hard for tonight's competition.
And Ron couldn't have such preferential treatment, especially since he hated exams very much. If it was Hermione, he wouldn't say such things.
"I'd rather take the exam," Harry said with a wry smile, "at least the exam won't make me so uneasy."
Just when Harry was about to say something, he and Ron saw Professor McGonagall walking towards them not far away.
"Potter, the warriors assembled in the conference room next to the auditorium after breakfast," she said.
"But it's game night!" Harry accidentally spilled scrambled eggs on his body, thinking he had misremembered the time.
"I know, Potter," said Professor McGonagall, "the relatives of the warriors are invited to watch the finals, and you can meet." She walked away after speaking.
Harry stared at her back in a daze.
"She doesn't think the Dursleys are coming?" he asked Ron blankly.
"I don't know," said Ron. "Harry, I have to hurry. I'm going to be late for the exam. See you later."
Harry finished his breakfast in the gradually deserted Great Hall.He saw Fleur Delacour get up from the Ravenclaw table and walk into the meeting room with Cedric.After a while Krum slouched away too.
Harry sat still, he really didn't want to go.
He had no relatives—no relatives who would risk their lives to see him.But just as he stood up, planning to go to the library to study some spells, the door of the meeting room opened, and Cedric poked his head out.
"Harry, come on, they're waiting for you!"
Harry stood up in bewilderment. There was no way the Dursleys were coming.
He walked across the hall and pushed the door into the conference room, where Cedric and his parents stood.In the corner of the room, Viktor Krum speaks rapid Bulgarian to his dark-haired parents, from whom he inherited his aquiline nose.On the other side, Fleur was chatting non-stop with her mother in French.Fleur's little sister, Gabrielle, holds her mother's hand.She waved to Harry, who waved back, grinning.In the past is Hermione who just ran away. She didn't know when Harry got here one step ahead, and she was talking excitedly with her parents.
Then he saw Mrs. Weasley and Bill standing in front of the fireplace, smiling at him.
"I didn't think so!" said Mrs Weasley enthusiastically.
Harry walked forward with a smile on his face. He really didn't expect Mrs. Weasley to come back.
"We wanted to come and watch you play, Harry!" She leaned down and kissed his cheek.
"How are you?" Bill smiled, shaking Harry's hand. "Charlie would like to come too, but he couldn't get away. He said your fight with the Horntail was too good to be true."
Harry noticed Fleur Delacour looking at Bill with interest over his mother's shoulder.You could tell she wasn't averse to long hair and earrings with fangs.
"That's very kind of you," Harry said softly to Mrs. Weasley, "I'd like to—Dursley—"
"Hmm." Mrs Weasley pursed her lips.She had always avoided criticizing the Dursleys in front of Harry, but her eyes lit up every time she heard their names.
"It's good to be back," Bill said, surveying the conference room (the Fat Lady's girlfriend, Violet, winked at him in the frame), "I haven't seen this place in five years. Is that picture of the mad knight still there? Sir Cadogan?"
"Oh, it's still there," said Harry.He had met Sir Cadogan last year.
"Where's the fat lady?" Bill asked.
"She was there when I was at school," said Mrs. Weasley, "and she gave me a hard time one day when I got back to the dormitory at four o'clock in the morning—"
"What are you doing outside the dorm at four in the morning?" Bill said, looking at his mother in surprise.
Mrs Weasley smiled, her eyes sparkling.
"I went for a walk with your father. He was caught by the housekeeper Apollyon Prinlo at the time—your father still has the mark on him."
"Take us around, Harry?" Bill said.
"Okay," said Harry.
They walked toward the door leading to the Great Hall, and as they passed Amos Diggory he turned his head.
"It's you?" He looked Harry up and down and said, "Cedric's score has caught up, are you less arrogant?"
"What?" Harry asked.
"Leave him alone," Cedric whispered to Harry, frowning behind his father's back, "he's been mad since Rita Skeeter wrote about the Triwizard Tournament - you know , that woman described you as the only Hogwarts warrior."
"He didn't try to correct her either, did he?" Harry heard Amos Diggory say as they walked out the door with Mrs. Weasley and Bill, "but . . . you'll let him see, Seid. You beat him once, didn't you?"
"Rita Skeeter makes a fuss about nothing, Amos!" said Mrs. Weasley angrily. "You work in the Ministry, I thought you knew!"
Mr. Diggory seemed about to lose his temper, but his wife put a hand on his arm, so he just shrugged and turned away.
The warriors were enjoying a rare happy time with their families. In the afternoon, Hermione brought her parents to find Lin Xiao, and introduced Lin Xiao to the Grangers. Although Lin Xiao knew them very well, but The Grangers didn't think that their daughter's teacher, Zeng Jin, was their pet cat.
Hermione didn't have to go to class all afternoon, the other students were taking exams, only the warriors had time to accompany their families, and Lin Xiao was accompanied by Hermione like a brat, and they walked around half of Hogwarts with their family. Go to those more dangerous places.
The Grangers were very curious about the place where the wizards lived, and they were even more surprised to see the portraits walking in the frame.
For Muggles, everything around wizards is so magical. This day allowed the Grangers to see so many things that they had never known before.
Happy time always passed quickly, and the sky gradually darkened. Hermione and the five warriors were also asked to temporarily separate from their families and go to the rest area to make final preparations.
The venue for the match was the original Quidditch pitch, but at this moment, the pitch became even an acquaintance like Harry wondered if he had gone to the wrong place. The huge pitch turned into a huge plant maze.
In the stands, their family members, students and professors had already taken their seats. Several referees stood at the front. Dumbledore asked Harry and the others to stand where they were, waiting for the final introduction before the start of the game.
After Bagman's brief introduction, the plants at the entrance of the maze were automatically separated, revealing the deep passage inside.
"Okay, let's go in." Lin Xiao said to Hermione beside him, "I'm here for everything, don't worry, just play with all your strength!"
Hermione nodded, took a deep breath, exchanged glances with Harry beside her, and then walked towards the entrance of the maze.
The five warriors entered the maze from different entrances. Lin Xiao didn't give Hermione any hints. He believed that Hermione would be able to find the location of the trophy by virtue of her own ability.
'Hoo~! '
A gust of wind blew past, and the entrance to the maze was completely sealed.
Hermione turned her head and glanced at the closed entrance behind her, "It's okay, you can definitely do it!"
Calming her nervousness, Hermione quickly pulled out her wand, and a fluorescent flash made the tip of the wand light up with a beam of soft light, instantly illuminating an area under her feet.
There was only one way forward, and there was nothing to choose at this time, so Hermione walked straight ahead.
She has never gone through the maze, but she has played puzzles. For this kind of game that tests luck and intelligence, Hermione is confident that she will never be inferior to anyone else.When she arrived at the first fork, she stood at the intersection and did not immediately choose a certain path, but waved her magic wand and swayed a silver-white spot of light.
"Magic net mark!"
This is a magic that Lin Xiao taught her recently. Its main function is to detect the way, and the maximum range can detect every corner within a radius of a hundred miles.
Of course, that was the limit that Lin Xiao could reach when he used it. It would be impossible for Hermione to be so powerful.
The silver-white spot of light drifted forward, left, and right, and soon disappeared at the turning at the end.
Hermione stood still, until the dots of light came back here a few minutes later, and then she started to walk towards the road on the left.
Along the way, Hermione almost relied on the magic of the magic net mark to move forward. Sometimes she had to make her own choice. After all, her strength was limited, and the magic net mark could not detect too far away. When the directions are not dead ends, she has to choose one of them to move forward.
The strange thing is that she didn't meet the other four people along the way, just when Hermione was wondering where they all went, she suddenly raised her head and looked up to the sky.
In the sky, a fiery red beam of light rose into the sky and exploded directly in the sky.
It was a signal for help, and as long as this signal was issued, the professors would go to rescue, but it also meant that the rescued object lost the qualification to continue the game.
"I don't know who it could be?" Hermione lowered her head and thought to herself.
Not long after the game started, someone sent out a distress signal, which made Hermione's heart heavy.
Moving forward, she couldn't help but become more cautious. Every step she took, she had to carefully make sure that the ground in front of her was free of traps.
"Passed out!"
"Huh?" Hermione stopped suddenly, pricked up her ears and listened carefully.
"There are many obstacles!"
There was another incantation, and Hermione recognized it as Harry's voice.
"It seems that it wasn't Harry who asked for help just now." Hermione couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, but the next moment her heart beat up again.
Harry was doing magic, so obviously he was in danger, or it certainly couldn't be.
"No, I have to go and have a look!" Hermione quickened her pace.
A few minutes later, she arrived at the place where the voice came from before, and she found that there was no sign of Harry except for a little battle trace on the ground.
"He shouldn't have gone far." Hermione continued to walk forward. She had only walked for a few minutes when she suddenly heard a loud noise, followed by a ghastly green magic beam passing by her eyes, hitting several Some plants in the distance.
"This is... the Cruciatus Curse!" Hermione stood there in surprise, and soon she realized that she poked her head out to look in the direction from which the Cruciatus Curse hit.
She finally saw the others, it was Victor and Cedric, and she saw Harry hiding on the other side, and everyone was here except Fleur.
Needless to say, Fleur must have sent the distress call just now, Hermione thought.
"Putting the heart and scraping the bone!"
It was another Cruciatus Curse. Hermione could tell that Victor didn't have much research on the Cruciatus Curse, and his technique was very jerky.
In fact, he just attacked Cedric, but Cedric noticed and avoided him, which was the Cruciatus Curse that flew past Hermione's eyes.
"Swoon!" Harry rushed out at this moment, pointing his wand at Victor.
"Passed out!"
The same magic that stunned and counteracted Harry in mid-air, Victor's dead gray eyes looked at Harry with a terrifying expression on his face.
At this time, Cedric had already fallen to the ground, and the second Cruciatus Curse hit him, making him experience pain that he had never experienced in his life. At this moment, he felt that he had no strength to get up.
"Victor, what are you doing?" Harry yelled loudly at Victor.
But Victor ignored him, and after hesitating for a while, he turned around and ran away.
Harry saw that he was hesitating whether to attack the fleeing Victor, when a magic beam suddenly flew past his ear and hit the fleeing Victor directly.
"All petrochemical!"
The petrification spell was cast by Hermione.
Harry turned his head, relieved when he saw it was Hermione.
"Scared me to death, Victor seemed crazy." Harry said, patting his chest.
At this moment he walked up to Cedric and reached out to pull him up.
"Are you all right?" Harry asked.
The pained expression still remained on Cedric's face, and he shook his head slightly after hearing Harry's words.
"It's okay, it's just a little uncomfortable," he said.
"You should be glad that Victor doesn't have much research on the Cruciatus Curse." Hermione also came over at this time, she glanced at the petrified Victor over there, and said, "He should have been hit by the Imperius Curse, Someone is controlling him to attack you."
"Someone is controlling him? Who is it?" Harry and Cedric turned to look at Hermione.
But Hermione shook her head, "I don't know, but I'm sure he's not a good person."
Harry and Cedric smiled helplessly. They also knew that the other party must not be a good person. Otherwise, how could they control Victor with the Imperius Curse, and attack them with the Cruciatus Curse.
"Are we going to keep him here?" Harry asked suddenly, pointing at Victor, who was lying on the ground.
"Send a distress signal, we can't let him just lie here." Hermione said as she swung the wand in the sky, and a fiery red beam shot into the sky.
"Okay, let's go."
The two nodded, and stopped looking at Victor over there, and walked directly to the other side.
After that, the three of them did not separate. Hermione and Harry were good friends, so there was no need to separate. Cedric was also rescued by Harry just now, and he was regarded as a friend in his heart, so he did not propose to separate. idea.
As for Harry, these questions never occurred to him.
Moving forward, Hermione let Harry and Cedric see what real pathfinding magic is. Her magic net mark is much better than Cedric and Harry's methods. face of envy.
"It's great to have a good teacher!" Cedric looked enviously at Hermione who was walking ahead, and he found sadly that he and Harry had become supporting roles, although he seemed to be a supporting role.
"You have a good father, too," said Harry.
"Dumbledore took good care of you too." Cedric said with a smile.
The two of them were chatting in the back, while Hermione, who was walking in front, cast the magic network mark every time she reached an intersection. Nearly half an hour passed in this stop-and-go manner.
Finally, they found that there was only one road left, and from a distance, all three of them saw the fluorescent trophy at the deepest point of that road.
The three of them stopped in unison and turned their heads to look at each other.
"Let's run together and see who gets it first, how about that?" Cedric suggested.
Hermione and Harry nodded without thinking twice.
"Then...start!"
The three of them rushed out almost at the same time. Although Hermione was a girl, Lin Xiao had been preparing some medicine and food for her during this time, and she was not inferior to Harry in terms of physical strength.
Originally, Cedric should run faster than the two because of his age, but he was hit by Victor's Cruciatus Curse before. Although he is much better now, this will still affect his performance, so three Humans are almost as fast.
'Whoo~! ''Whoo~! ''Whoo~! '...
Just as the three of them were running wildly, thick vines suddenly extended from the roots of the plants on both sides of the passage. These vines seemed to be trying to prevent them from getting close to the trophy, constantly trying to interfere with them.
The three almost tried their best to avoid these stumbling vines, and their speed could not help but slow down greatly for a while.
"Shattered to pieces!" Sedris cast a crushing spell on the vines blocking the road in front of him, but the effect was not satisfactory.
"These guys are resistant to magic!" he yelled.
"Shenfeng Wuying!" Hermione waved her wand, and several energy blades cut on the vines in front of her, unexpectedly only cutting off two or three vines, leaving only wounds on more vines.
"No, these guys are very resistant to magic!" Hermione stopped casting magic and started running intently.
Seeing the movements of the two, Harry no longer wanted to experiment. He put all his thoughts on his feet, for fear that one of them would accidentally fall.
Sudden……
"Ah~!"
Cedric's limbs were still a little stiff when running because of the Cruciatus Curse before. At this time, he accidentally failed to avoid a stumbling vine, and the whole person threw himself forward and fell to the ground.
Suddenly, a large number of vines came over and tied his feet tightly.
"Cedric!" Harry turned around and saw this scene, and his footsteps couldn't help but pause.
"Harry?" Hermione also slowed down her pace, looking at Harry next to her.
"Help me!" Cedric desperately grabbed the ground, his wand flew to nowhere, for a wizard who lost his wand, it was like cutting off his hands, he could only shout loudly Call for help from Harry and Hermione.
Harry hesitated for a moment, then immediately turned around and ran back. Hermione looked at it, but didn't say anything, and turned around and followed Harry to save Cedric.
"Smashed to pieces!"
"Shen Feng has no shadow!"
Although the anti-magic ability of these vines is very good, they can't withstand the repeated torture of the two, especially Hermione's God Feng Wuying, who can always cut off several vines every time. Those vines seem to be conscious, and they are a little scared Get closer to Hermione.
Soon, Cedric was supported by the two and ran out. At this time, the maze changed again, and the road behind them suddenly disappeared. Of course, those annoying vines accompanied the news.
The three of them looked at each other and laughed out loud.
"Let's go together, let's go out with the trophy together." Harry said, his eyes looked at Hermione, Hermione was the strongest among the three, in fact, the trophy should belong to her.
Hermione met Harry's gaze, but nodded with a smile.
"I'm fine," she said.
"You..." Cedric was speechless for a while, and he walked to the trophy with the support of the two.
"He's beautiful," said Harry.
"Take it together?" He raised his head and looked at the two of them.
"it is good."
Three hands reached out to the trophy together and held three positions of the trophy at the same time.
The next moment, the surrounding scenery suddenly began to distort and deform, as if using apparition. In the blink of an eye, the three of them appeared in a gloomy cemetery together with the trophy.
"Wow~Wow~!"
A few crows stood on a dead tree and called.
The three people who fell to the ground stood up in surprise, looking at the surrounding environment in confusion.
"Is this also a competition event?" Harry asked suspiciously.
