Hogwarts: When the live Q&A goes live

Chapter 292 Searching for Treasure (Part [-])
Tom had been swimming towards the merman for a long time while Harry had found his position.

He had already guessed what might happen in this game.

Now it is nothing more than swimming over, getting his own treasure, and then passing through the obstacles of the mermaid to successfully return to the shore.

It's just that Tom wasn't curious about that.

What he is curious about is his own treasure.

How can the reporting party be sure that every warrior knows which treasures are his own after seeing those "treasures"?

Either, there are two ways.

One is that each warrior can attack other warriors and snatch the treasure in their hands without getting the treasure.

The second method is that the organizer can be very sure that every warrior can determine what his treasure is when he sees those "treasures".

Tom wasn't quite sure about that.

But he couldn't think of what his treasure would be.

It's impossible, Professor Dumbledore picked up his things from decades ago to make his own treasure.

Thinking of this, Tom actually laughed out loud.

But underwater, no one will hear this sound.

Of course, also because of the spell, he won't drink a little lake water when he opens his mouth to laugh.

He didn't want to drink even a little bit of this muddy lake water.

Being able to get into the water is already the limit.

Tom is also a bit of a clean freak, which he tolerates most of the time.

For example, in an emergency situation.

But now...

Isn't this not to that extent yet?
Far less dangerous than during his time in Germany.

You must know that at that time, there were many pure-blood families and Ministry of Magic Aurors chasing and killing him.

If it's just him, then don't worry.

But he was surrounded by many people who agreed with his philosophy, so how could he leave alone?
If those Aurors and pure-blood family members were allowed to attack, then the people who followed him would suffer heavy losses, not even one out of ten.

That is a loss that no leader with vision can tolerate.

Naturally, Tom also demanded himself as a leader with excellent vision, so how could he make that kind of mistake?
He could still remember the days when he had been there, teaching them magic, helping them grow up against the oppression of pure blood.

Everything seems to be yesterday.

If you think about it carefully, it will only be a year or two.

In the past two years, he has experienced a lot, and he narrowly escaped death.

Betrayed by traitors, ambushed by heavy soldiers, attacked by mysterious magic handed down from family.

There are so many things that put a lot of pressure on him who has not yet fully grown up.

Fortunately, he made a right move.

Entered into Durmstrang through Karkaroff's relationship, and the rest of them broke up and continued to hide in the magic world, waiting for the day when they would be awakened again.

And, secretly continue to absorb new members who have passed the test.

Blood is not supreme, wizards should be equal.

This is their idea, but not the final idea.

The goals are also clearly defined.

Now Durmstrang's students have basically agreed with his philosophy and the new path they will choose in the future.

Without this Triwizard Tournament, it is estimated that Tom has already started the next stage of struggle with those pure-blood families.

Many things at the bottom of the water were not very clear. Tom specially cast a fluorescent spell on himself, using light to dispel the darkness under the water.

The strange thing is that the area illuminated by the fluorescent spell is still hazy.

It can't be seen clearly.

Tom knew that this should be a peculiar feature of the Black Lake itself, not man-made.

He didn't pay much attention to it either. During those years at Hogwarts, he hadn't been anywhere or found any secret passages.

Just kidding, even if the surroundings are pitch black, he can speak with confidence.

I really can't see anything.

Tom's body gradually sank to the bottom of the water, and he did not start to walk until his feet were firmly on the ground.

He is proficient in various spells, and it is not easy to roam in the water.

And he's not in a hurry.

The fame of the Triwizard Tournament was of no use to him.

Harry, on the other hand, wanted to find someone else right now.

It would be nice to go for a walk underwater or something together.

The clusters of unique water plants in the lake were completely revealed in front of him under the light of the beam of light on his wand.

In this regard, Tom chose to bypass directly.

I don't know if those grasses have the ability to wrap around people.

When you are not sure, it is best to choose to stay away.

Even if you are confident in your own strength.

But in the magic world, there are many examples of people who are confident in their own strength overturning.

Sometimes, it is right to be cautious and maintain due reverence for the wizarding world.

It is mysterious and far more powerful than anyone imagined.

"I still haven't seen a few people, no, are they so fast?"

Continuing to walk down, Tom felt a little puzzled.

If he's the last one in, it's normal for the others to be faster than him.

But the problem is, he wasn't the last to go into the water.

Behind him came Harry, Cedric, and another Beauxbatons warrior lady.

If the three of them were swimming to the correct position, then no matter how fast they were, I should have seen them at this very moment.

Perhaps part of the reason he couldn't see them was because the lake was so muddy.

Standing on the shore, you may feel that the lake is very clear, but you will not find it until you go into the water yourself.

There is a difference between the inside of the lake and the shore.

With a whoosh, it seemed that someone had slipped past him.

Tom looked over there, but saw nothing.

For those who use their eyes to see, the restrictions are too great.

He frowned, and hastened to catch up.

If there are people, then probably nothing will happen.

It was the man who had to worry about whether he would be attacked by Tom.

Snatching the golden egg from the fire dragon has made some people understand a truth deeply.

Tom is invincible, and Harry is not to be underestimated.

These two should be the two most powerful among all the warriors.

Although Tom was walking, he was not walking slowly.

In terms of speed, he may be a bit ahead of others.

At this moment, a clump of grass at his feet caught Tom's footsteps and made him stand upright.

The swishing sounds beside him could be heard endlessly, even a fool should realize that someone is going to attack him at this moment.

What's more, Tom is not a fool.

He raised his head, even if he couldn't see the hidden things around him, he could probably guess a little bit.

Those swishing noises were the merfolk's sounds as they passed through the water around him.
