I, Hogwarts Second Week

Chapter 326 Awakening——Underwater

Hermione, she stood there blankly.

As if he had lost his soul, he fell into the same dull state as usual.

She was holding the leather bag, not knowing what she was thinking.

Gemini mentioned Professor McGonagall's name twice, which made her dry heart feel warmer.

And just when she was in a daze.

Around him, Justin, Hannah, and Luna left one by one.

They all greeted her before leaving.

But Hermione, who was distracted, didn't seem to notice.

In the castle, they were the ones who stayed in the school infirmary for the second longest time.

Hannah was horrified.

Of course, after knowing that something happened to Owen, everyone fell into a kind of fear.

The fear that had been buried deep in her heart since last summer vacation, that is, the thought of dancing with death and eventually being swallowed by death, suddenly spread to her brain.

It took her a long time to get over that fear.

besides.

Cedric also walked past Hermione. He patted the witch on the shoulder, hoping to give her some comfort.

Then he took quick steps and disappeared into the bright sunshine outside the door.

Gradually, there were fewer and fewer little wizards in the foyer.

When only a few people were left, Hermione stood up numbly.

As if she had pressed some kind of determination, she tied the leather bag around her waist, and then left the auditorium, the gate, the castle, and walked towards the Black Lake with a firm look.

Going down the lawn, all the bleachers that covered the open space last year have been moved to the lake. The layers are quite spectacular. Under the sunlight, the lake surface sparkles, and people are reflected in the water. They follow each other. The water is dancing happily, and from a distance, it seems that there are people everywhere and it is very lively.

At this time, the stands were already packed, and the shouts of joy went straight into the sky.

——————

And the other side.

In a hazy dreamland, Owen was bidding farewell to his Miss Granger.

The sculpture Hermione turned into dots of starlight and disappeared, while the world around him began to undergo amazing changes. One moment it was stretched, and the next moment it was infinitely shortened.

The space is twitching crazily, which is a sign that the spirit is recovering.

A corner of the morning sky was torn apart, and the stars fell. Through the gap, he seemed to see the ceiling of some medieval castle building.

"Oye!!"

"Dude is such a genius!"

There were more and more signs of fragmentation in the blue sky, and the glass fragments all over the sky condensed into a meteorite.

The stars shone with wonder as they fell from the sky.

The next second, these stars appeared in Owen's hands.

Then he opened his mouth wide and swallowed the stars directly into his stomach.

The light goes out, and this false world disappears.

Next - open your eyes.

In the school nurse's room, Owen opened his eyes suddenly.

In his gaze, countless rings were set together, and a meteor penetrated all the rings from the middle and reached the center.

He blinked again, and everything returned to normal, but this time, the pupils seemed to have changed color, and most of them were emerald green.

The hair also changed from black and silver to mainly silver with black accents.

"Ha! I'm back again!"

Owen rolled like a carp and jumped out of the hospital bed.

At this time, the entire school medical room was empty and the door was closed.

The warm sunshine outside the window shines in, and the golden light shines on the ground. Everything is warm!

"Um? Is it sunny?"

The temperature suddenly rose so much, which naturally aroused Owen's doubts.

He didn't know how long he had been sleeping in the illusion.

But referring to Harry, although the illusion took a long time, the reality should only be a moment.

"Forget it, who cares!"

Anyway, it’s impossible to open your eyes seventeen years later.

He rubbed his neck, feeling a pain come over him.

It seemed that he had been lying down for a long time.

Turning his head, Owen looked at Koyatel, who was across the bed from him.

The girl also opened her eyes.

But his expression was slightly painful.

The next second, Owen walked up to her.

As agreed, he slowly cut open his index finger, a drop of blood dripped, and then the magic power of Yinhui wrapped it up.

The magic power weaves countless rings, which symbolize the return principle of ancient magic.

And his drop of blood, like the initial meteor, bringing the original magic power, passed through the ring and dripped on Koyatel's brow.

"Okay, our agreement is reached."

Owen said calmly, then turned and left.

Behind him, the moment the blood blended into her body, Koyatel felt as if a thousand kilograms of weight had been lifted off her shoulders, and her whole body felt relaxed.

She sat up.

The carefully carved feet are soft and tender when stepped on the ground.

The coldness came from the nerves and went straight into her brain.

"call--"

This is a relaxing feeling that I have never felt before.

On the other side, Owen had already put on his shoes and reached out to push open the door of the school medical room.

His small package was beside the bed, containing all the common things he had prepared in advance, including a change of clothes, his own and Miss Granger's.

There are also tents, quilts, beds and so on. Very complete.

"Oh! By the way." The door opened slowly, and Owen turned his head suddenly as if he suddenly remembered something, "I suddenly remembered something."

"What." The girl was stretching out her hands and looking at herself blankly. Before this, she had always felt that there was more than just her in this body. Now, she truly felt that this was hers, something that belonged only to her.

"I have forgotten your connection with the outer gods for too long. The power of Zion has deeply changed certain characteristics of your body. Now your separate soul is like an outsider to this body."

"What do you mean?" Koyatel's eyes darkened.

"It means you don't have much life left." Owen said calmly, as if he was talking about what he was going to eat later, "There is about half a year left."

"Six months?"

"Yes." Owen nodded, "Enjoy the rest of your life!"

"Have a good time!"

He shook his hands, then turned his head, turning around and leaving without mercy.

He walked quickly in the corridor. There is always a slight smile on his face.

Six months?

Haha - go to hell! stupid!

Dare to take action against your father.

After eating the heart of a bear, a leopard will return with courage!

Owen made no secret of his disgust for that woman, but as a positive figure, at least for now, he would not betray his promise.

So - buddy saved me!

She is alive!

But I didn’t say how long I would live!

Six months - Zhenzhen, just in time for summer vacation (February), and by that time she had already been back in North America for more than a month.

Then a sudden death has nothing to do with Hogwarts.

hehe!

Owen went down the spiral staircase.

I have never felt better.

ah! This air of truth.

Real mural.

Real stairs.

Real castle.

Everything is so real.

It’s—it’s—Nima’s, what about people?

After running all the way to the front door, Owen suddenly realized that he didn't see a little wizard along the way.

The ghost has not been seen either.

The auditorium to his right was equally empty.

The place was decorated with lights and colorful decorations, and it looked completely new, as if they were celebrating some festival just a moment ago, but in the next second everyone disappeared.

It's inexplicably weird.

What the hell?

Hogwarts was captured?

When did the Death Eaters become so awesome that they could promise Dumbledore?

impossible!

Unless Old Deng is the leader behind the Death Eaters, the Death Eaters will not be able to break into the castle no matter what!

"Mad! You can't really lie down until seventeen years later!" Owen quickly touched his body.

Well - I didn’t grow up suddenly!

Not only was she a child before she fell into coma, but she was already the mother of two children when she woke up.

"Um - the pants legs seem a bit short."

Owen lifted his pants, and they were indeed a little short.

Knock-how long have you been unconscious?

Could it be that the outside world has been taken over by alien gods?

That would be great fun!

The end of the book is direct, and I am so happy that I ran away.

Unfortunately, such a sweet dream will never become a reality.

Owen, who soon calmed down, heard cheers and cheers coming from outside.

When he walked out of the courtyard, he immediately saw the stands on the Black Lake.

"Huh? Is it already the third game?"

Owen touched his chin and looked at the greenery around him, plus the changes in his body.

It can be estimated that he may have been in a coma for a month or two.

This should be the scene in front of us in April. estimate

"So long?" Owen was a little shocked.

He thought it was just a moment or a few days at most.

However, such a result is not unacceptable, at least not seventeen years later.

In the distance, Dumbledore's voice became particularly loud.

He must have used the 'loud voice' spell.

A thunderous sound passed over the dark black lake and reached Hogwarts.

"Listen up, everyone, our warriors are already in their positions. As soon as I blow the whistle, the third project will begin. They have a full hour to take back what was taken from them. I count to three, one, two, three. !”

A sharp whistle sounded in the warm afternoon, and a burst of cheers and applause erupted from the stands.

thump! thump! thump.

The sound of falling water sounded, and the little wizards screamed louder.

On Owen's side, a gust of wind suddenly passed by his side. He took a closer look, oh - it turned out that a girl with long black hair had just rushed past.

"Owen!"

The girl walked quickly, and on the way to the bottom of the mountain, she turned around and raised her middle finger to Owen.

Although Owen didn't hear (selectively ignored) the word she spoke, but based on the shape of her mouth, it should also start with an F.

It doesn't matter.

You only have half your life left, why can't you let them scold you?

Thinking about it, Owen also raised his middle finger and said a word starting with B.

But he will never suffer a loss.

Owen stood on the shore looking at Coatl's figure.

Her hair turned black.

I just didn't see the eyes.

In just an instant, you can notice that her whole temperament is completely different. Seems more cheerful?

The Koyatel from before would not have given him the middle finger.

But it's more likely that he knew he was going to die soon.

So he became unscrupulous. Just like those who know that they have cancer and are about to die, they will choose to take a swing.

However, looking at her anxious look, hiss - she is not preparing to participate in the competition.

Can this still be added halfway?

Owen followed.

The third game should be the same as the original. All while rescuing hostages from mermaids underwater.

The professor must have not prepared Koatl's hostage, so even if she joined in halfway, she probably wouldn't be able to complete the game.

Moreover - this hostage-finding competition is too boring!

Not challenging at all.

Look at his second level, the Hogwarts sewers, a genius design. With the help of Victor, he used ancient magic to have a strong strengthening effect on organisms, but he stuffed an entire aquarium into it.

The venues, traps, and mazes were all carefully designed by him.

Except for a shortcut that he and the deans knew, no one could get out for more than an hour.

Look now!

Without him, the professors' imagination is really lacking. What fun would it be to hunt for underwater treasures?

"Why don't you go into the water and add some seasoning to them?"

The corners of Owen's mouth raised slightly.

His eyes looked straight at the lake as if looking through the dark lake water.

I don’t know—how is Miss Granger doing?

I haven't seen her for two months. How is she?

————And under the black lake that Owen could not see.

A dark, hazy place full of water plants.

Hermione was struggling to wave her arms and swim under the water.

There was silence in her ears, and she could only see scenes within a ten-foot radius. Therefore, for her, every time she slid in the water, a new scene would suddenly emerge from the darkness in front of her.

There was a mask on her face. It was a magical item, a diving device invented by the Weasley twins. She asked the twins to make it after she knew that the competition would be underwater two months ago.

Because neither the magic spell nor anything else that can breathe in water is stable enough, and this mask is also waterproof and sandproof, which is much easier to use than a simple underwater magic spell.

"Huh..." Miss Granger spit out a lot of bubbles.

The surrounding environment was not friendly to her, and she didn't like this dark place.

Especially the undulating, tangled jungles of black waterweed and the wide, flat stretches of sand scattered with shiny pebbles are reminiscent of bondage and death.

And - Gemini is right to worry.

Three months of chaotic life had completely destroyed her body.

She was no longer as lively as she was against the dragon.

In the lake, the heat from her body was being taken away quickly.

My arm was sore after just waving it a few times.

My head was so overwhelmed by the raging fatigue that I couldn't even keep my eyes open.

Now, she can only rely on perseverance.

He was determined not to embarrass Hogwarts and swam forward step by step.

She swam deeper and deeper, heading toward the center of the lake.

He mustered up his energy, opened his eyes wide, looked through the gray and strange lake water, and looked at the black shadow in the distance. The lake water there was dark and hazy.

The little fish swam past her nimbly, like silver darts.

Once or twice, Hermione seemed to see a big thing moving in front of her, but when she got closer, she realized that it was just a big black log or a dense and tangled aquatic plant.

There were no other warriors in sight, no merfolk—thank God, no giant squid.

Hermione looked hard into the distance. In front of her was a piece of green water grass, two feet deep, really like a very dense lawn. He stared ahead without blinking, trying his best to identify the figure in the shadow... At this moment, without any precaution, something grabbed her ankle.

"boom!"

Golden light flashed, and the silent confinement spell was instantly issued.

When the sound of hitting something came from the water, she turned around. It turned out to be a Grindylow, a kind of water monster with long horns on its head. It kept leaning out of the water plants and had a long mouth. Big, showing a row of fangs.

After getting rid of this one, the depths of the waterweed did not stop, but continued to swim with many Grindylows.

"Relax your strength!"

Another silent spell, and the magic power spread around like ripples.

After hitting the water monsters, their green skin suddenly turned red, and then they struggled in the water at a snail's speed, as if they were pressed into slow play, and even rushed toward her.

Hermione ignored them.

Instead, he turned around and swam in another direction.

After continuing to swim along the guidance of a map in her hand for more than ten minutes, Hermione stopped. She turned 360 degrees in the water. There was silence all around. Only the water pressure imprisoned her eardrums. I knew I must be at the bottom of a very deep lake, but except for water plants, there was nothing moving around.

Hermione had thought she might be able to see Lady Hufflepuff's resting place in the water, but there was no light as expected.

She was sure that the light curtain outside had a phantom spell, but she couldn't find its location, and she couldn't confirm it herself.

"Oh my God! Those things got out."

The sudden sound made Hermione almost have a heart attack. She turned around suddenly and vaguely saw Weeping Myrtle, who seemed to be hiding from something. She was swimming towards her, through the thick pearls. Looking at her through colored lenses.

"Uh-" Hermione didn't say anything, and of course she couldn't speak. She pointed to the water plants on the side and motioned for her to hide in.

"It's you, Hermione." Myrtle seemed to have seen a savior. She swam past Hermione quickly, and then plunged into the water plants.

Then Hermione waved her wand slightly, and suddenly a muffled sound came from the ground of the Black Lake, and then dust and silt spread.

The grapevine wand glowed faintly, controlling the stones at the bottom of the lake and slamming them at the monster chasing Myrtle.

A huge lobster.

After she was done, Hermione turned around and left.

Don't care whether the lobster was killed or not.

"Oh! What a critical moment!" Myrtle popped up from the water plants, "Look at those big pair of pliers, they can pinch the wizard in half."

"?" Hermione waved to her.

"I know what you are going to ask, why am I here? Right." Myrtle hugged her chest and swam around Hermione, "It's too boring to stay in the castle. I often run out."

"But I don't come here often. It's too dark here, if it's not a competition - and those mermaids don't like me either. As soon as I get close, they come to chase me." Myrtle said with some indignation. With.
