Chapter 393
It wasn't just Sakura whose light disappeared.
Hermione, Qiu, and Astoria were not much better after seeing this scene.
Even Luna and Cassandra frowned.
Gabrielle was the most angry, and she kept muttering about the hateful old woman, while the Beauxbatons girl who was responsible for taking care of her was frowning.
Fifteen or sixteen years old is an old woman, so what does she, who is seventeen, count as?
People have different joys and sorrows.
Hermione and the others were very popular, but there was laughter from the stands. George and Fred laughed the most happily, and they could hardly stand up straight.
If Wayne hadn't seen it, they would definitely give a thumbs up.
You call this a hostage?
Are you going to have a private meeting?
On the warrior side, Fleur was also going crazy.
Didn't you say you were going to date Sakura on Valentine's Day a few days ago?
Why are you hanging out with Tomoyo again?
No matter how good the relationship between these besties is, you can't buy one get one free!
The one who should be most angry is actually Sakura.
But now... the little girl is a little confused.
Who should she be jealous of?
Puff!
Suddenly, a chuckle came from the side, and the other warriors who were still watching the show turned their heads and saw Cedric's wrinkles with joy.
"Is it funny?" Fleur asked coldly, and Sakura and Cassandra also stared at him with emotionless eyes.
For a moment, Cedric felt like he saw his grandmother who had died many years ago.
He swallowed hard: "I, I'm just happy, happy that I guessed the question correctly and prepared in advance."
The three of them looked away.
Cedric was relieved and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
Merlin, he really thought he was going to be killed by these three girls. It was so scary.
I really don’t know how Wayne could bear it.
Thinking of this, Cedric began to gloat again.
He had a hunch that when Wayne came out of the water, he would definitely be waiting for a bloody storm. No, he had to finish the game and find some snacks to watch the show.
"Mr. Bagman." Furong said faintly: "I don't want to save this hostage, okay?"
"She is so sweet in the water, why does she need me to save her."
Sakura nodded subconsciously, then immediately woke up and felt a little guilty.
How could she not want to save Tomoyo?
It was all Wayne's fault. Tomoyo must have been forced.
Finding a reason for her best friend, Sakura pouted angrily.
Bagman smiled awkwardly: "Ms. Delacour, please stop joking. You have one hour and it will start in three minutes. Please hurry up and get ready."
Fleur pouted and said nothing more. She just looked at the two people who had separated on the screen with a dangerous look in her eyes.
The bottom of the lake.
Wayne didn't know yet that he had performed a scene of a woman being raped in front of her eyes, plus the scene of my best friend for Sakura.
"How does it feel?" Wayne asked.
"I felt dizzy and almost couldn't breathe." Tomoyo said softly, with a pair of eyes glued to the boy, "My heartbeat has also become much faster."
Wayne estimated that the game should start, and he had no intention of trying again.
"That's caused by lack of experience." He said seriously, "When we go back, we will practice more, and you will be able to breathe in the middle."
"Okay." Tomoyo agreed with a smile, and suddenly asked: "Who is softer, me or Sakura?"
"Sakura!" Wayne said without hesitation.
Praising Tomoyo in front of Sakura, praising Sakura in front of Tomoyo, will never be wrong.
Sure enough, Chishi nodded in agreement and smiled even more happily.
Beside the Black Lake, the warriors have begun to show their magical powers.
First, it was Cassandra. She used the Bubble Head Curse, and then used partial human body transformation to turn her legs into fish tails, so that she could swim faster in the water.
Cedric also used the same strategy as her, but his ordinary transformation was not bad, and Professor McGonagall had just started to teach human body transformation, so he didn't dare to mess around.
He had to bite the bullet and use breaststroke to dive into the water.
Then it was Krum, who turned himself into a fish-headed monster. Although ugly, he could breathe in the water.
He prepared his swimming trunks early, and when he changed his clothes, he showed his strong body, and the girls screamed.
Fleur took out a bottle of magic potion and drank it.
This was made from the potion materials she collected in the last round, and it was in full compliance with the rules. After drinking it, Fleur felt her skin was very dry, and she quickly dived into the water.
Bagman's surprised voice came: "Miss Delacour actually dived directly into the water without using any spells. What kind of potion did she drink~"
"Mermaid potion." Madam Maxime explained, and in order to let everyone hear, she also pointed her wand at her throat:
"This is a brand new potion. After drinking it, you can breathe through the pores of your body and flow freely in the water."
Snape's face was black and smelly. This weird potion must be Lawrence's masterpiece.
Sakura still looked unhappy. She summoned the water card, put on the bubble head spell, and jumped into the water. The water flow not only did not produce resistance, but pushed her forward all the way.
Suddenly, there was another exclamation from the audience. It was Buso of Vagado.
He turned into a half-meter-long fish and swam happily into the lake.
"Vagadu's human transformation is so powerful." A little wizard from Hogwarts exclaimed. A student from Vagadu heard it and raised his head proudly:
"Buso is the most powerful genius in our school in the past fifty years. He can transform into more than a dozen animals!"
Several judges nodded frequently in the referee's booth.
The meaning of the competition lies in this, to let students see the vastness of the world and the abilities of wizards in other regions.
Only when your horizons are broadened can you achieve greater success in the future.
Harry gritted his teeth and stuffed the chinweed into his mouth, then walked into the lake.
The lake water was still icy cold, and he shivered with cold. There was laughter from the audience. Even though he was dozens of meters away, he could hear Malfoy's sharp laughter, as if he was still laughing at him with Goyle and Crabbe.
Why don't you laugh to death!
Harry cursed fiercely in his heart, and suddenly, he felt his lungs were empty, and there was a sudden sharp pain on both sides of his neck like a knife cutting.
He grew two gills, and the cold air was sucked in between opening and closing.
Harry plunged into the water, as if he was as comfortable as on land.
Now there was only one contestant left. Vladimir raised his wand and cast the flying spell. Soon, a set of Muggle diving equipment flew over from the castle.
He put it on skillfully and dived into the water.
Several judges frowned, but said nothing.
His behavior was similar to Harry's use of the Firebolt in the first round.
It was just that this was an item from the Muggle world, which would affect the judges' scoring standards to some extent.
So far, all eight contestants had successfully entered the water, which was considered to have passed the first level, but there were more difficult tests waiting for them.
In the water, the power of conventional spells would be greatly reduced, and the flying speed would be much slower.
The audience stopped looking at the Black Lake and looked up at the screens above.
Several girls could only see their heads, and the rest of the body was blurry, while the boys were much more normal.
In less than five minutes, the contestants also encountered difficulties one after another.
Buso was the most unlucky. He turned into a fish and should have swum the fastest, but he ran into a big fish in the lake and was crushed and ran around.
Then it was Furong and Cassandra. They encountered Grindylow and Water Shadow Snake.
If they were on the shore, a few low-level magical creatures would not waste too much of their time.
But it was different in the water. More than a dozen Grindylows and water snakes that were proficient in water caused them a lot of trouble.
In the end, there was no choice but to take a long detour.
Suddenly, another exclamation sounded.
"What kind of animal is that? It's so big!"
"It's transformed, it's a water monster! There's actually a water monster living in the Black Lake?" (To read the exciting novels, go to Faloo Novel Network!)
The students of Costolis came in nervously, because the warrior Vladimir of their academy was near the water monster.
The light in the lake was dim, and he had not yet discovered the danger lurking around him, and was struggling to find the mermaid village.
Katerina stood up in panic: "Dumbledore, why is there such a dangerous god in the lake?Strange creature? I demand the end of the game!"
Water monsters are not the same kind as Grindylows, they really eat people.
"Don't worry, Professor Katerina." Dumbledore remained calm: "This water monster is an external aid provided by Mr. Scamander. They have undergone rigorous training and will not eat people. They will only scare warriors or cause some trouble."
"Mr. Newt Scamander?" Katerina stared at him and asked.
"Yes. "Dumbledore nodded.
After receiving a positive answer, Katerina's face looked much better.
In the field of magical animals, Newt's name is more useful than Dumbledore's, and it is definitely a golden signboard.
Under the nervous gaze of everyone, the horse-shaped water monster finally launched a sneak attack.
It first transformed into a water snake and approached Vladimir, and then when it was only a few meters away, it suddenly turned into a horse head and opened its big mouth to bite.
Vladimir was frightened and swam desperately in the opposite direction without thinking, but his movements became more clumsy in the diving suit, and he was not as good as the swimmer. The water monster was soon caught up.
As Dumbledore said, the horse-shaped water monster had no intention of hurting anyone, but just bit a hole in his diving suit and then left.
After the false alarm, Vladimir had to return to the shore to repair his diving suit and then set off again, which took up a lot of time.
In a blink of an eye, half an hour had passed since the start of the game. []
The warriors had more or less encountered a lot of trouble. So far, no one has come to the mermaid village.
If it was the previous Black Lake, it would not be so So many dangers.
But now it is different. This time the game is spiced up. Newt was invited and many magical creatures were poured into the Black Lake, so the Black Lake became a den of dragons and tigers.
Wayne was already bored waiting, so he played a bubble passing game with Chiyo.
A small heart-shaped bubble separated from his big bubble, then slowly floated to Chiyo's side and merged with her bubble.
Chiyo found it interesting and asked Wayne to launch a few more.
After throwing dozens of bubbles in a row, Wayne's bubble shrank by half and his body couldn't stretch out.
Looking at Chiyo who was laughing secretly World, Wayne realized that he had been fooled, and floated over aggressively, snatching many of Zhishi's bubbles.
The two of them were so idle, let alone the other hostages, who could only stare at the dim lake and listen to the singing of the mermaid choir beside them.
Although it was very nice, it was just a few sentences over and over again.
Ron was almost asleep.
Finally, after another ten minutes, the first warrior finally arrived at the scene.
It turned out to be Harry.
He was really lucky, he met Myrtle who came to watch the show, and pointed him in the direction, saving him many detours.
On the shore, the Gryffindor audience burst into warm applause. The first place was Harry!
Seeing Wayne, Harry waved excitedly and swam over.
Four mermaids holding spears blocked his way. One of them said in a hoarse and low voice: "~This is not your hostage."
"I know, I just want to say hello." Harry explained, but some bubbles came out of his mouth.
"Defeat us and you can take your treasure."
This is the final test.
Harry did not act immediately, but asked: "What about the others? What will happen if an hour passes?"
Wayne remembered Harry's performance in the original book, which was similar to being possessed, and took out his wand and waved it a few times.
A line of words composed of water rings appeared in front of Harry and the fish people.
[Just take care of your own hostages. Even if an hour passes, the warriors will only lose points, and the hostages will not be in any danger. 】
Harry heaved a sigh of relief.
"Come on." He said, and another circle of small bubbles appeared.
He didn't care whether the mermaids understood or not, he took the lead.
The wand shot out a hot stream of water, which was evaded by the mermaids swiftly. The four mermaids raised their spears and pretended to stab.
Harry stepped back and leaned down a little. He pointed his wand at the water plants at the bottom of the lake, and the water plants immediately grew wildly and surrounded the four mermaids.
The mermaids wanted to swing their spears to cut the water plants, but the water plants were extremely tough, and the stone spear tip could not be cut off at once, and soon they were tightly entangled.
This was the spell Grindelwald taught him. Harry didn't expect it to be so useful. He still had a more powerful one that he hadn't used yet.
"You have passed the test, warrior, let them go and take your treasure back."
The deputy mermaid leader said to Harry.
Harry looked at Ron who was sleeping soundly, and did not act immediately, but fell into thinking.
Wayne was also a little strange, not knowing what he was hesitating about.
After about two minutes, Harry finally reacted. He raised his wand and shook it.
The waterweeds wrapped the mermaid tighter.
The deputy mermaid leader grinned and looked at him vigilantly.
"Little human wizard, what do you want to do!"
"I won't let these mermaids out." Harry gestured and said, "You must send twice as many mermaids to guard the other hostages."
"Otherwise, I will tie you all up."
Since the others are not in danger, he should also consider his own score.
Mr. Guy is right, everything is for the greater good.
Then it is reasonable to increase the difficulty for other players appropriately, right? .
