Hogwarts: I am the White Lord
Chapter 396 Intelligence and Dilemma
Malfoy's phone call saved Harry, who was suffering from the noise.
He put away the golden egg and the translator and decided not to try again, even though he knew he would be able to find the correct answer using this stupid method.
What did Malfoy just say?
Cedric invites everyone to take a bath tonight?
Could it be that Cedric discovered the secret of the golden egg while taking a bath?
It’s weird to think about it, who would take a golden egg with them while taking a bath?
At nine o'clock in the evening, Harry left the Gryffindor common room with the golden egg, went to the sixth floor of the castle, and began to look for the statue of Boris the Dork.
"Wearing reverse gloves on both hands and a confused expression... This should be it."
After confirming that the statue was correct, he counted to the fourth door on the left side of the statue and whispered the password: "Fresh pineapple."
squeak-
The door slowly opened, Harry looked in, and then quickly slipped in.
"You're the only one left, Harry. Remember to lock the door to prevent others from coming in."
Looking up, Harry found that Malfoy and Cedric were both soaking in a large swimming pool, with only their heads sticking out.
There were colorful bubbles floating in the pool, pink, blue, and even crystal clear bubbles. In addition, there was a thin layer of purple mist above the bathtub, exuding a faint lavender scent.
"The boys' bathroom is quiet and undisturbed, perfect for us to decipher the golden egg," Cedric's voice rang out. "Come and relax. We're lucky that Myrtle didn't come today."
Myrtle?
How come there is a female pervert here?
Harry locked the door as Cedric had instructed, and then took the time to observe the bathroom in front of him.
Merlin!
The benefits of being a class leader are not bad. This bathroom alone is luxurious enough.
A magical chandelier hung from the ceiling, casting a warm glow throughout the room.
Everything in the room was made of snow-white marble, even the bathtub in the middle.
Although it was called a bathing pool, Harry felt that it was more like a small swimming pool.
"There's actually a diving board?!" he muttered and continued observing.
There are about a hundred golden faucets distributed around the bath, and each faucet has a gem inlaid on the handle. They are of different colors and sparkle under the magic lamp.
The only decoration on the wall was a picture in a gilded frame of a blonde mermaid sleeping on a rock.
"Don't be in a daze, Harry," Malfoy urged in the sink, "The clean towel is in that corner, go change your clothes first, then bring the golden egg over here, now all you have left is your golden egg and I don't know what it said."
Following the direction of Malfoy's finger, Harry came to the corner, quickly took off his coat, picked up a large white bath towel and wrapped it around his waist, then walked to the edge of the swimming pool and jumped in without hesitation, causing a large splash of water.
The warm water wrapped around his body, making him feel much more relaxed. This feeling was completely different from the shower in an ordinary bathroom, it was simply too luxurious.
Harry didn't bother to relax and asked directly: "What should we do now? How do we solve the secret of the golden egg?"
"Put the golden egg in water and then open it," Cedric explained. "It makes a different sound underwater."
Harry nodded, picked up the golden egg, carefully sank it into the water, and then skillfully opened it by pinching the crack on the golden egg.
This time, the golden egg did not scream. Instead, an ethereal song slowly rang out in the water, with a beautiful and mysterious tone.
He couldn't hear it clearly through the water, but he could feel that the song seemed to be telling some important message.
wow-
There was a slight splash, and Harry saw that Malfoy and Cedric had already dived into the water. He took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and sank to the bottom of the water.
As soon as I sank into the water, I heard a melodious and strange song. The water seemed to be a medium, clearly transmitting the sound from the golden egg.
Harry opened his eyes and looked at Malfoy and Cedric through the refraction of the waves. The two were listening to the song with bated breath, their expressions extremely focused.
After the singing slowly faded away, Harry couldn't help but surface and took a few deep breaths.
"Can't sing on the ground? What is this?"
After seeing the mural of a mermaid on the wall, an idea suddenly occurred to him: "Could it be a mermaid?"
"It should be the singing of mermaids." Cedric wiped the water drops off his face. "Mermaids like to sing, and you can only hear them clearly underwater. I didn't think of it before. This is too wrong."
Malfoy raised an eyebrow: "It seems that the location of the second game has been clearly determined. It is the Black Lake."
Harry ran his hands through his wet hair and asked in confusion, "What did your two golden eggs say?"
"My golden egg says that we need to collect four different gems and combine them into a special key." Cedric picked up his golden egg and handed it to Harry.
Harry didn't listen to the contents of the golden egg again, but turned to look at Malfoy.
"We have three hours to get our beloved treasure back," Malfoy frowned, "but it doesn't say what our beloved treasure is."
As soon as he finished speaking, Harry's eyes widened. "Three hours! Staying in the Black Lake for three hours? That's really deadly."
Cedric frowned as well.
Now the requirements of the second game are very clear. They need to dive into the Black Lake within three hours, collect four gems to form a key, and then rescue their beloved baby.
The problem is coming!
He really couldn't think of any way to stay underwater for three hours.
Malfoy suggested a plan: "Maybe we could use the Bubblehead Charm?"
"Not very good," Harry shook his head. "Professor Swann said in the Muggle Studies class that strenuous exercise consumes a lot of oxygen. The oxygen in the Bubblehead Charm shouldn't last that long."
"Human body deformation should be possible," Cedric said with some regret, "Neither of you are good at human body deformation, and the time is too short for you to practice."
"Got it!" Harry's eyes lit up. "We can use gillweed. After eating it, it will grow gills and webbed feet, allowing us to breathe and move freely underwater."
He was quite familiar with the sacgrass, as he had bought one as a gift for Professor Snape.
"But..." Harry hesitated, "It seems that the cheekweed can only last for more than an hour. Our game is three hours, which is not enough."
"How about this, I'll study and see if I can use Gillsbill as the main ingredient to make a potion that allows one to breathe underwater. If that doesn't work, I'll go ask Professor Snape for help."
"Okay," Malfoy said immediately, "Leave the chinweed to me. I'll ask my dad to buy some. It will definitely be enough for you to make potions."
