Hogwarts: I am the White Demon King
#422 - Chapter 422 Ambush
The scale of this maze far exceeded everyone's expectations. Five minutes passed in the blink of an eye, and the second-ranked Wagadu Champion team also quickly entered the maze under Bagman's instructions.
"The Wagadu champions have maximized the advantages of Transfiguration," Bagman's commentary was impassioned and clear. "Champion Amusu has transformed into a vulture through Animagus, and his body has been reduced to the size of a sparrow under the Shrinking Charm. This allows him to fly freely through the narrow paths of the maze."
"Amusu is using his nimble flying advantage to quickly explore the paths, and his two teammates, Musa and Bakari, are not far behind. They skillfully use Transfiguration to conjure many small animals to run ahead of the team, leaving the lurking dark creatures with nowhere to hide. With such coordination, their speed is also extremely rapid."
The audience erupted in enthusiastic applause, offering heartfelt cheers to the three Wagadu champions.
Meanwhile, as the Wagadu champions entered the maze, Harry and his team, calculating the time, decisively adjusted their strategy, abandoning the Blasting Curse and instead using the quieter Severing Charm against the hedges.
Although this change slightly slowed their progress, it greatly reduced the noise, effectively preventing the Wagadu champions from deducing their plan through the sounds and imitating it.
At this moment, Harry and his team had arrived at the final obstacle leading to the center of the maze—a seemingly peaceful small pond.
The pond was only a little over a meter deep, but it was lurking with Class XXXX magical creatures called Kappas. These aquatic reptiles closely resemble scaled monkeys, with webbed feet and hands, and are swift and cunning.
Wading through the water would undoubtedly be a risky move, as these Kappas are extremely adept at ambushes, especially when their prey loses balance.
Frankly, these magical creatures are not difficult to deal with when prepared. However, the real trap is the magical bog hidden beneath the water. Once you accidentally step on it, your feet will be firmly stuck, and with the Kappa's sneak attack, the champion could easily be overturned in panic.
Harry and his team knew the nature of the pond, so they had no intention of entering the water.
They raised their wands and chanted in unison: "Glacius!"
Three dazzling white lights shot towards the pond like arrows, and the three strands of magic intertwined and overlapped, forming a powerful combined magic, the Triple Freezing Spell. In an instant, the entire pond was covered in ice, and the Kappas were also frozen in the thick ice, with no power to attack.
"Fantastic!" Bagman's commentary rang out in a timely manner. "The Hogwarts Champion team has used the Triple Freezing Spell to solve the trap in front of them. They have passed through the exit on the last hedge and arrived at the central open space on the first level of the maze, and then stepped onto the stairs leading to the next level."
"The competition has only started for ten minutes, and the Hogwarts Champion team has already completed the first level of the maze, which theoretically requires at least half an hour! Currently, they have safely reached the second level of the maze. At this time, the Wagadu Champion team is still advancing in the first quarter of the first level, and the third-ranked Beauxbatons Champion team has only just entered the maze!"
A gasp of amazement rippled through the audience, but Bagman's commentary did not stop: "With this huge lead, the Hogwarts champions have actually chosen to stop at the flat rest area in front of the entrance to the second level of the maze. Could it be that they have consumed too much energy just now and are trying to take advantage of this time to rest and recover their strength?"
"Or are the four paths in front of the rest area causing them to struggle, unsure of which one to choose? It's no wonder they are being cautious. Once they choose the wrong path, it will only be a waste of time and may even allow other teams to close the gap and catch up. After all, the difficulty of the second level of the maze is much higher than the first level."
"Will the three of them continue with the style of the previous level and use the Blasting Curse to advance violently? To be honest, this is not a good idea, because the later teams can quickly close the distance along the path they have opened up."
"No!" Bagman's voice became excited, "Everyone, look quickly, they are not going to rest, but are setting up magical traps. They are going to ambush the later teams here. A bold idea, they are planning to wait and see, and lock in the victory in advance."
"I wonder if the Wagadu champions can discover the ambush here, let's wait and see."
The audience's emotions were stirred to the extreme, and enthusiastic discussions rang out throughout the arena. Everyone speculated about what kind of showdown would happen next.
The headmaster of Wagadu's face also became serious. He had not expected the Hogwarts Champion team to adopt such an aggressive tactic.
Aren't these children worried that the snipe and clam fight, and the fisherman benefits?
On the other side, Harry and his team waved their wands and quickly laid a magical bog at the entrance of the second level, which was a bog spell that the three of them had specially learned.
From the outside, no one would have thought that this seemingly flat ground had become a bog full of mud.
Then, they used the Disillusionment Charm to hide themselves and ambushed near the entrance from three directions.
About fifteen minutes later, a flash of light appeared at the entrance, and three people walked out of it, it was the three Wagadu champions, Amusu, Musa, and Bakari.
Before they could see the surrounding arrangement clearly, two red lights shot out, accurately hitting the unguarded Bakari, who fell straight to the ground without a sound.
"Ambush!"
Amusu and Musa reacted extremely quickly, jumping to the side the moment the spell hit Bakari.
Among them, Musa completed the Animagus transformation in mid-air before landing, turning into a huge chimpanzee. He twisted his body and used all his strength to throw the wand in his hand like a spear at the Harry, who had revealed his figure.
Anyway, he could cast spells with gestures, so it didn't matter if he lost his wand. Instead, he could catch the opponent off guard. The opponent would definitely not expect that he would throw his wand as a weapon. If he was lucky, it was not impossible to knock one of them unconscious directly.
However, his wand was knocked away by Cedric's Shield Charm, who had been waiting in full battle array, just after it was thrown.
Next, Musa had no chance to make a move. Because he twisted his body in mid-air, he had already lost his balance and plunged into the swamp. His hands tried to exert force, but there was no point of support at all. Instead, he sank deeper and deeper because of his struggle.
On the other side, Amusu did not choose Animagus transformation, but skillfully used the Iron Skin Curse in mid-air to protect himself.
Careless, I never thought that the Hogwarts champions would set up an ambush here.
Amusu's mind quickly flashed through the process of counterattack: after landing, he needed to roll on the spot, and quickly counterattack while dodging subsequent attacks, and try to solve one of them, otherwise the situation would be very difficult.
However, before he could implement it, he felt his feet soften, and then half of his body was submerged in the mud. Not to mention somersaults, he couldn't even move a bit.
Mother f**ker!
There is even a magic trap, these insidious guys!
I have become a living target!
Amusu only had time to curse in his heart before being stunned by the consecutive Stunning Spells.
Sebastian's figure appeared in a timely manner and began to fulfill the duties of a safety officer. He waved his wand, pulled Musa, who had turned into a chimpanzee, out of the mud. If he was any slower, this young man would suffocate to death.
Then, he smiled slightly at Harry and his team, letting the three Wagadu champions float behind him and leave here.
So far, the Wagadu Champion team has been eliminated......
