So, five minutes later.

"...Everyone, please be patient and don't be anxious."

Looking at the three still empty fog screens, as well as the countless students below who were eagerly looking forward to it and already looking a little restless, little Barty resisted the urge to laugh loudly, and squeezed out a confused but uneasy look. With a suppressed expression, he explained to the poor students who still didn't know what was about to happen: "What I just said was only a theoretical time, but in reality there will still be a certain error..."

"This is also the first time that Durmstrang School has tried to reproduce the water teleportation magic on the ghost ship and apply them to building new ships, so the uncertainty will be slightly greater... But don't worry, no matter what Whether it's the technology or the ghost ships, they have been verified by the referee team countless times. There will be no problems in terms of safety. At most, like now, the transmission process takes longer than expected. The warriors will not be there. This link is in danger..."

Seeing Ludo Bagman's promise, the students who were still a little restless gradually regained their composure - after all, it is not uncommon for magic to have errors, and it was only five years ago. It's about a minute, so it's not too far off.

However, there were still a few uneasy faces hidden among the crowd - not just Baron.

So, another five minutes passed.

"what is happening?"

In fact, starting from the third minute, the students' doubts and noises have gradually become a bit uncontrollable, and now it has reached the point where they are almost rushing to the referee's seat. And the referees who were still there finally showed a bit of anxiety and were gathering together to discuss something in a low voice...

"I'm going to check the magic is working!"

Karkaroff was the first to stand up. He didn’t know whether he was addressing the students or the referees. After saying this, he disappeared out of thin air with a loud bang. As the principal of Durmstrang, Karkaroff naturally has the power to apparate within the school. At the same time, the three fog screens that were originally dark suddenly condensed into a ball again, and what was displayed on them was Karkaroff who had already put on the Bubble Curse. He was holding up his wand and carefully searching around in the deep, dark water, seemingly searching for signs of something...

After seeing the principal's actions, the noisy students became a little quieter. At least they no longer planned to rush to the referee's bench and pull their beards and hair. The remaining four referees, especially Ludo Bagman, began to sit quietly uneasily, waiting for Karkarov's result...

Maybe three minutes later, or maybe three full centuries later, Karkaroff finally disappeared from the screen again, and at the same time, a familiar explosion came from the direction of the referee's seat - Karkaroff He appeared in front of the referee's table all wet, his hair clinging to his forehead and cheeks, still dripping with water. But he didn't even want to spend an extra second to dry himself a little, and hurriedly ran towards the other four referees:

"Professor Dumbledore, I'm afraid I need your help here!"

Dumbledore didn't notice at all that he had been thrown all over by Karkaroff, but stood up with a serious face: "What happened?"

"There is a problem with the water transfer process."

Karkaroff's face turned pale and his lips were trembling slightly. He didn't know whether it was because the water was too cold or he was too nervous now: "All three ghost ships were stuck in the process of teleportation. It’s in the space inside the water—a few hundred meters deep!”

"……how so?"

The faces of the other referees suddenly turned pale, and Dumbledore immediately stood up from his seat. The strange and primitive wand appeared in his hand at some point, and frowned at Karkaroff. Asked: "Didn't we check it several times? What went wrong this time?"

"It's not clear yet."

Karkaroff shook his head and replied: "But we can't let them stay there anymore - we don't know how long the magic on the ghost ship can sustain under the healing power of space, which is much scarier than the water pressure of hundreds of feet." ...They are hidden too deep in space, and I’m afraid only you among us can get them out, Professor Dumbledore!”

Crouch and Madame Maxime didn't say much after hearing this - they had a very clear understanding of Dumbledore's strength, and they had also heard rumors about the mysterious wand in Dumbledore's hand... …

"I see."

Dumbledore nodded solemnly, with no trace of relaxation on his face: "Then please take me down, Professor Karkaroff. Besides, you should be more familiar with the magic of water teleportation than me. I'm afraid I will need it later." Your help."

"This is my duty."

Karkaroff nodded simply and glanced at "Ludo Bagman" next to him: "Mr. Bagman, please come with us. The warriors may be frightened in such an accident. You are the most experienced in dealing with this..."

"no problem."

"Ludo Bagman" nodded in agreement calmly.

"Then Mr. Crouch and Mrs. Maxim, please stay here to maintain order among the students. Durmstrang's professors will also cooperate with you. Please don't cause any more trouble."

Crouch and Maxim also nodded in agreement, then stood up and walked off the referee's bench, and began to communicate with the Durmstrang professors. And Karkaroff also firmly grabbed the sleeves of "Bagman" and Dumbledore, and then disappeared together with another explosion, and reappeared on the screen made of fog the next moment. .

But this time, the scenery presented on the screen was no longer the dark water, but a vast space illuminated by countless bonfires floating in the sky. Countless lakes were surging around this space, but as if separated by an invisible wall, they couldn't get even a little closer. In the end, they had no choice but to form turbulent whirlpools around it - this is where the original plan was. , the final location for the Triwizard Tournament trophy.

Suddenly, three figures appeared in the originally empty space without any warning. They were Dumbledore, Karkaroff and "Bagman".

"Let's begin, Professor Karkaroff."

Dumbledore seemed to sense something as soon as he landed on the ground, and then he immediately pulled out the Elder Wand and pointed it accurately at a certain location in the void. He turned to look at Karkaroff next to him inquiringly.

"……good."

Karkaroff glanced at Dumbledore in surprise, then pulled out his wand and pointed it at the exact same location as Dumbledore...
