Hogwarts Defense Against the Dark Arts Professor Peter

Chapter 137 The Invisible Raider

Pulling Harry's carriage, three horse-headed mermaids raced toward the surface, their scaly tails slapping the water vigorously, stirring up a backward white current that sent Cedric and Crew Tom's carriage pushed harder and harder.

Harry looked back, and Cedric had an anxious look on his face covered in the head charm, and his horse-headed mermaid was grinning tiredly, with its long molars sticking out of its lips, which looked a little funny .

Fleur Delacour did not show up at all, and Harry guessed that she must have encountered some setbacks. He watched the lake getting closer and closer, and a gorgeous scene appeared in his mind again: amidst applause and cheers, , he won the top three cup and won Zhang Qiu's heart...

A feeling of difficulty breathing brought him back to reality. It should be that the duration of the water absorption potion is about to expire, but it doesn't matter, the lake is in front of him.

At this moment, there was a bang, and there was a muffled noise in the water. Harry fell off the carriage, and the horse-headed mermaid pulling the carriage stopped and turned to look at him.

Harry, who was thrown away, felt very puzzled, could it be that Krum secretly cast some spell?He struggled to swim back to the carriage and looked back at Krum. Krum's head had turned into a shark's head. Harry could only see the two rows of fangs in his mouth, but couldn't make out his expression at all.

He grabbed the carriage tightly, and the horse-headed mermaid swam again. Fortunately, Krum and Cedric hadn't caught up, but just a few seconds later, a pair of invisible hands strangled his neck tightly. He fell off the carriage again, clutching his neck in the water and struggling desperately, the lack of oxygen made him dizzy.

Cedric and Krum's carriage passed Harry, but Harry couldn't care less about it. He opened his mouth wide just to inhale a bit of oxygen-laden lake water.

Cedric was the first to notice the strangeness. He hesitated for a moment, jumped out of the carriage, and swam towards Harry. Krum, who was further away, didn't seem to have seen the accident on Harry's side at all. His carriage Drive straight towards the water.

Cedric grabbed Harry's body and tapped his throat with his wand, and Harry was finally able to breathe, and he took a big gulp of water, only to be choked up - the effect of the water-absorbing potion has all but disappeared.

There was a plop and Harry flew away from Cedric, taking a hard blow to the chest, but no one saw who did it.

Seeing his opponents jumping out of the carriage, Krum abandoned his easy victory and swam towards Harry.Harry was still being beaten by something invisible and blood was coming from his nose.

Krum circled Harry twice, he was just as bewildered as Cedric, Harry pinched his nose with one hand and pointed at the lake with the other, beckoning his opponents to finish first, but Cedric was firm Shaking his head emphatically, he shielded Harry with his body, and Krum also surrounded Harry, opening his mouth wide and biting blindly.

A thick bright green poisonous snake swam past Harry, and the beating stopped immediately. At the same time, another giant black snake was also chasing the invisible assailant. He raised his wand and shot frequently.

Two grown wizards swooped down on their broomsticks, and Harry was already rolling his eyes from choking, but as soon as he saw the two, he knew the danger was over.

"Professor Peddie...Sirius..."

Peter threw away his broom and conjured a seahorse. He and Sirius took one of Harry's arms, rode on the seahorse, and quickly sent him out of the water. Madam Pomfrey was already waiting on the shore.

The audience was silent, and what happened just now was obviously shown in the projection. Sirius knelt beside Harry, almost crying in distress. Fortunately, Harry spit out several mouthfuls of lake water under the stimulation of Madam Pomfrey's potion , sat up from the ground, and Sirius pulled him into his arms.

Cedric and Krum also emerged from the water and slowly swam ashore. Krum had some difficulty disabling the Transfiguration. As a result, people saw a shark in swimming trunks being killed by two Ministry of Magic The clerk ran towards Madam Pomfrey with the help of her, and kept pouring water into her own cheeks with the water-controlling spell on the way.

Peter had dried his soaked clothes and walked towards the podium, where Dumbledore was talking to Ms. Burns.

"Dumbledore, Harry is fine," Peter whispered.

"Is there any trace of the Dark Arts?" asked Dumbledore sternly.

"No." Peter said, "I think it's a prank and has nothing to do with Voldemort."

Dumbledore nodded understandingly, at this time the narrator Mr. Ludo Bagman had just recovered from the shock.

"Ah... Ladies and gentlemen, due to the accident just now, so far, none of the warriors have returned to the surface in accordance with the rules - riding a horse-headed fish-tailed beast, but they have all displayed noble character! "

Dumbledore stood up and took the lead in applauding, and the entire venue erupted in warm applause and cheers. Madame Maxime looked at the lake anxiously and absently clapped along.

"This is a more wonderful game than the normal end! The warriors have fully demonstrated their wisdom, kindness, nobility and perseverance!" Bagman shouted, "Look, our fourth warrior is also out of the water! "

A bloated woman and a man with a moustache mask helped Fleur up, and a huge Grindylo was wrapped around her head, and one of the shoulder straps of the swimsuit was almost torn off by Grindylow, which was dangerous. The bloated woman kindly helped her hold her back.

There was another burst of warm applause from the stands. It seemed that Fu Rong's performance was remarkable, even though she was defeated.

Madam Pomfrey poured a pepper-flavored cold potion into all four warriors, and Sirius sat there with them, and after drinking the potion, the warriors' ears and nostrils came out of their ears and nostrils. Smoke rings.

The Grindylow had been removed from Fleur's head, she was as pale as Harry, and they both felt ignominious failures.

In the middle of the lake, a woman wearing a red classic dress and a huge monster covered with waterweed pulled the old woman with a veil to float up. The last thing that emerged from the water was the terrifying figure with a handcuffed right hand and a gray-white blood-stained robe. man.

Harry watched in surprise as the group of people in strange costumes dried their clothes and walked towards the rostrum. The man with the moustache mask seemed to be only half of his body, and the veiled old woman stumbled at the end... ...Wait, Harry seems to have guessed something...

Dumbledore stood up and looked at them with a smile on his face. When they stood in a row in front of the rostrum, he said happily and loudly: "In addition to the four warriors, there is another group of people who have added luster to this game—please Everyone join me in welcoming our lovely examiners back to dry land!"
