Chapter 376: No One Told Me That Competitions Are So Expensive!

Harry now regretted why he didn't read more books about herbalism. There were many things he didn't understand along the way.

But now is not the time to complain. Twenty minutes have passed since he entered the ruins, and he has not found the right direction yet.

Leaving an arrow mark on the nearby wall, Harry used Transfiguration to make a simple schoolbag, put all the materials in his pocket into it, and continued moving forward.

Time passed by, and the warriors gradually moved closer to the center after constant attempts.

There is a passage directly to the outside in the center of the ruins where Wayne is located, and this is the exit.

In addition to Vladimir and Buso, other employees also began to meet.

Cassandra and Sakura met, they just nodded to each other, and then separated.

Harry met Krum and was wary of him.

Krum looked at Harry, who was a head shorter than him, and hesitated in his mind whether to snatch him away.

Harry felt the crisis and raised his wand to his chest.

But in the end, Krum still didn't take action. He may have felt that Harry had too little oil and water, and the consequences of taking action would be more serious than the gains.

The two of them each chose a path and continued walking.

The screams of wild beasts became more intense as they approached the core area, and the danger of magical animals and dark creatures gradually increased. Fleur was chased by three horned camel beasts and ran five hundred meters in one breath, and then encountered Motla Rat. There are hundreds of them in the group.

When the fire was put down, half of the box was dead and half of it was running away. When the wooden box was opened, it turned out to be just a piece of feces. The angry mixed-blood Veela let out a woodchuck scream.

"Who designed the level? And it doesn't allow people to live anymore!"

"A sneeze!"

Wayne almost fell asleep and sneezed. He immediately woke up and subconsciously looked at the map "Zero 40".

"Eh? Did you meet a unicorn?"

In the western region, Buso and Vladimir looked at Hestia and Diana in front of them as if they were facing a formidable enemy.

If you can't mess with unicorns, it's best not to mess with them.

Although it looks extremely holy, it is actually just a hedgehog. If blood splashes into the mouth accidentally, it is basically the end.

But...this reward is too tempting!

Originally, both of them planned to leave, but Diana was playing with the box and accidentally punctured the box with her horn, and they saw the herbs inside.

Invisible grass!

There is no need to make it into a magic potion, just chew it directly and you can get the invisibility effect for half an hour.

Vladimir and Buso's eyes turned red.

Must get it!

With the invisible grass, wouldn't it be possible to do whatever you want in subsequent games?

Feeling their hostility, Hestia and Diana also became alert. Diana's little hooves moved uneasily, ready to charge at any time.

"Wait a minute." Buso quickly raised his hands to show that he meant no harm.

He knew that unicorns have extremely high intelligence and can understand human words, so he asked directly:

"As long as we pass the test, we can take away the invisible grass, right? We don't have to defeat you."

If he had to defeat two unicorns to get the box, no matter how much he coveted the effect of the invisible grass, he decided to give up.

"Ugh" Hestia nodded slightly, that was indeed what Wayne said.

The two looked happy, and Ladimir asked roughly: "Then what is the eyelid examination?"

Diana gave up a seat, and on a lotus leaf behind her, there were vegetables and beef, as well as some fruits and condiments, all of which were complete.

After seeing it, Vladimir had a bad premonition in his heart: "You are not asking me to cook for you, are you?"

Diana screamed happily.

"But I can't!" Vladimir wailed, but Buso looked happy.

"It's okay, I can do it."

"Are you really good at it?"

"The food in Ouagadu is terrible, so a few friends and I often cook our own meals." Buso didn't expect that his cooking skills would be used in the competition.

"How do you divide the invisible grass?" Vladimir looked at the broken wooden box. There was only one invisible grass in it.

Buso said matter-of-factly: "I can cook, so of course it belongs to me.

Vladimir looked unwilling. He took out a wine flask from the pocket of his robe: "I can't cook, but I have wine. Can I exchange it for this?"

The two unicorns looked at him with big clear eyes. Although they didn't mean anything, he felt the contempt and put them away angrily.

Buso happily began to cook for the unicorn. He used the transformation technique to turn a stone into a crucible, and then began to live and die.

Half an hour later.

A pot of dark, sticky substance appeared in front of him.

Vladimir was silent.

The unicorn also fell silent.

Looking at the gas floating out from above, Hestia and Diana unconsciously took two steps back.

"What is this?" Vladimir asked in his soul.

"Beef soup."

"Where's the beef? Where's the vegetables you just put in?"

"It's all overcooked." Buso didn't feel anything was wrong at all. He picked up the spoon and took a bite, showing a smile of enjoyment, and then looked at the unicorn.

"Eat quickly, can you give me the invisible grass after eating?" Buso asked expectantly.

Diana shook her head wildly and kicked the invisible grass directly in front of Buso.

She and her mother don't want to eat such scary things.

"Is this okay?" Vladimir was dumbfounded. If he did it like this, he would be able to pass the test.

Then I can do it too.

Busuo was overjoyed and put the invisible grass close to his body, Momo's butt: "Let's go."

"Wait a moment."

Vladimir unbelievingly conjured up a spoon and tasted the 'cow head soup'

His face immediately turned green.

Time passed by minute by minute, and an hour passed in the blink of an eye.

Finally, at one hour and fifteen minutes, the first contestant came to Wayne.

It was still Krum. When he saw Wayne lying there, he immediately remembered what happened not long ago and stepped back.

"Don't be nervous." Wayne pointed to the passage behind him without even opening his eyes: "It's over if you leave here. You can now choose to continue the adventure, or you can choose to continue the adventure."

"I want to go out."

Wayne finally opened his eyes and looked at him in surprise: "You can go out if you want, tell me anything."

Krum's eyebrows jumped wildly and he walked out without saying a word.

The referees stayed outside for an hour, and not even a single student came out [several principals were already getting anxious.

However, when Krum appeared, Karkaroff, who was pacing back and forth anxiously just now, immediately beamed.

"Victor, congratulations on winning first place."

He quickly stepped forward and gave the proud student a warm hug, "You're not hurt, are you?"

"No." Krum shook his head slightly, not feeling too happy because he was the first to come out.

He sacrificed too many treasures, and the magic potion he took out was not a decent potion. It can be said that except for points, he gained nothing.

Karkaroff didn't care about this and asked him carefully about his experiences in the ruins. Several other principals also pricked up their ears.

The layout inside was all done by the Ministry of Magic, and even they didn't know what was inside.

The process was a bit boring, after all, Krum was always on the road.

When he heard that he was sent back to the starting point by Wayne, Karkaroff shivered with anger, but the other principals smiled.

Fontana even said bluntly: "Professor Karkaroff, Durmstrang's cultural training needs to be more careful. Even a six-year-old Muggle child knows how to answer such a simple story.

Karkaroff snorted coldly and ignored the ridicule of others, "Victor, take a good rest. You are now at least ten points ahead of others."

An hour and a half had passed, but he was still the only Tongwang who came out.

This made several other principals frown.

After such a long delay, no matter how precious the treasure is, we still have to worry about the score, right?

How could they know that it was because the warriors didn't want to come out?

That's blocked!

Boom!

The earthen wall shattered with a bang, and the huge bronze armor wielded a giant sword, splitting all the obstacles in front of it. The earthen wall built with great effort by the Ministry of Magic employees was not immune.

Cedric and Harry, who had already merged, ran as fast as they could, fearing that the big sword would strike them.

At first, they turned around and shot a few magic spells, but when they found that their attacks couldn't even leave a mark, they had no choice but to run away.

"Is this puppet crazy? How far has it gone!"

Harry cursed as he ran.

He has just concluded the rules. Those magical animals and guardians will only move within a certain area. As long as he runs out, they will not continue to pursue them.

But this extra-large puppet has chased him three streets!

Cedric rolled his eyes. He wanted to curse, but he had no extra energy.

He was the unlucky one, and while he was struggling to find an exit, Harry lured the monster over, and instead of one person running for his life, two people were running for their lives.

"Collapse!"

Suddenly, a scolding sound came from the front left. Harry and Cedric looked at each other and instantly understood each other's thoughts and changed their escape direction.

Two minutes later, Furong met the two of them and saw the bronze puppet's beautiful face eclipsed in pursuit:

"Don't come over here!"

"Miss Delacour, help!" Harry shouted, but Fleur couldn't care less about him and started running wildly with her long legs.

She is not stupid, she is a monster that can chase two contestants away, there is no difference if there is one more of her……

Now, the two people running for their lives became three people, and soon it became four people, and five people.

The closer you are to the center, the higher the probability of encountering other players.

At first Buso and Vladimir wanted to rely on the strength of their numbers to resist, but when he was lightly kicked by the statue and flew three to five meters, they calmed down.

In this way, except for Sakura and Krum, the other six players were blocked in a dead end by bronze statues.

Everyone's expression was very broken.

Why are there such terrifying guardians? Their magic resistance is even more terrifying than that of fire dragons.

Cedric was already preparing to launch magic fireworks to ask the referee to come and save people. Suddenly, the statue stopped.

"Squeak!"

There was a strange sound inside the armor, which made me move my ears and it felt very familiar.

Then there were a few more sounds, and a black dumpling came out of the statue's eye socket.

"Jerry?!"

Fleur and Cassandra recognized the little guy's identity immediately.

There is no doubt that apart from Wayne’s Jerry, there is basically no other such a fat Niffler in the world.

"Squeak! Squeak!"

Jerry nimbly landed on the statue's boots. Fleur bent down angrily and looked at it:

"You little guy, you ran after me like this

Jiu, do you want to tire me to death?"

"Squeak! Squeak!"

Jerry talked a lot, but no one here understood the Sniff language, and everyone was confused.

Until he took out a bottle of Phoenix Tears from his belly and held it in his arms.

Everyone was shocked.

"Is this the treasure you are responsible for guarding?" Fleur asked in surprise, and Jerry nodded.

"Leave it to me." The girl rolled her eyes and reached out to take it, but Xiu Xiu nimbly dodged it, and Sheng also raised the Heavenly Sword in his hand.

"Do you think Wayne will open the back door for you during the game?" Cassandra sneered, "This bronze statue is probably a test."

Furong snorted coldly: "You are smart, then take down this statue."

"Only a ghost can do it, but I have no ability."

"Then what you said is that you are not the same as me."

The two women started bickering like this, leaving the other boys speechless.

Sister, can you look at the occasion?

If the giant sword on our head accidentally falls off, we will all turn into meat.

Xiu Xiu was also angry. He finally had a chance to make extra money, but he was ignored like this.

The little guy ran up to the two of them and interrupted the quarrel between Fleur and Cassandra.

It placed Phoenix Tears on the ground, then took out another gold coin, shook it in front of everyone, and put it back into its stomach.

Seeing this familiar scene, Harry blurted out like a reflex:

"Want money?"

"Depoep!"

Jerry looked at him appreciatively.

Yes, I like this kind of enlightened little doctor.

Much smarter than the mistress.

Cedric had a complicated look on his face: "As expected of Wayne's pet...5.7's desperate need for money is exactly the same."

Others also fell silent.

They recalled the painful experience of paying two hundred Galleons each to visit the Fire Dragon before the first game.

Fleur coaxed nicely: "Jerry, I don't have any money with me. Can I give it to you when I get back?"

"Even if I owe you."

"I can do that too." Kassandra followed suit not to be outdone.

Jerry shook his little head and picked up the bottle again.

Seeing its resolute attitude, Fleur had no choice but to take off her silver hairpin, which was inlaid with two diamonds.

Xiu Xiu's little eyes lit up and she reached out to get it. Cassandra took off her bracelet and earrings.

Now Xiu Xiu began to hesitate again.

Others also ‘bid’

Vladimir took out all five galleons he had on him, Cedric had ten, and as for Buso...he was poor and only had more than a dozen Sickles on him.

The 200 Galleons he paid for the last time he went to see the Fire Dragon were all collected by the students from Wagadu, and now he still owes a lot of debt.

No one told him before he came that participating in the competition was so expensive.

Finally, everyone looked at Harry.

With a smile on his face, Harry took out a dragonskin wallet angrily and poured out all the money in it, which amounted to hundreds of galleons.

The gold coins fell to the ground and made a crisp sound.

Fleur gasped.

"Potter, why do you bring so much money to the competition?"

Harry looked at the gold coins with emotion: "I have to ask Wayne, I don't have any money now, so I feel insecure.

"Sometimes I feel that although the wallet is mine, the money in it already belongs to Wayne."

"Look, isn't this useful?"
