Hogwarts: I am the White Lord
Chapter 398 Game 2 begins
The three of them climbed out of the Black Lake in a panic. Although the thermal amulet successfully resisted the biting cold, their wet clothes still made them feel uncomfortable.
The lake water dripped down the corners of my clothes and hair, and the sticky feeling made me irritated.
They picked up their wands, skillfully dried the water off their bodies, then grabbed their clothes and put them on. They needed to leave here as soon as possible to avoid being seen by students from other schools.
"Harry's potion was excellent, I didn't feel any discomfort at all under the water."
Watching the webbed finger on his palm slowly shrink back, Cedric couldn't help but praise: "I didn't feel uncomfortable returning to the shore."
"It's definitely better than chinweed," Malfoy said as he put on his clothes. "I've looked up information. After eating chinweed, you can't breathe on the shore. You have to stay in the water."
Harry did not take credit for it: "It was all thanks to Professor Snape's potion formula."
The three of them quickly put on their clothes and walked quickly towards the castle.
"The problem is still very serious. It's too dark underwater and the vision is limited. It's not easy to fight against mermaids. After all, the darkness in the water is nothing to them."
Malfoy complained, "I just cast a spell on the mermaids, wanting to test the effect in advance. As you saw, several mermaids immediately attacked me. When I got ashore just now, I took a look and saw bruises all over my body."
"I got hit hard on my butt, and now it hurts when I walk. By the way, can you guys see if I'm limping when I walk?"
"That is to say, I have cultivated myself now. If it were before, I would definitely tell my father and ask him to cause trouble for these mermaids."
"Stop complaining. He is a little limping. Let's go to the infirmary together." Harry rubbed his head. He just went up to help, but was hit by a strong mermaid. Now he felt a little drowsy.
"We need to practice more underwater combat," Cedric rubbed his arm. He was hit just now. "Did you notice that level XX Grindylows become extremely difficult to deal with underwater, and there are too many of them."
"Practice! We must practice! This is our first time, and we are not familiar with underwater combat. Next time, I will make sure they learn a lesson."
Time flies after school starts, and in the blink of an eye it’s the last day before the competition.
Harry discovered that despite their thorough preparations, each practice dive presented new problems.
There is never enough time, so we can only do our best now.
Amidst the tension, they approached the second project.
On February 24th, while still having breakfast, Harry and Malfoy were called outside the hall by Cedric with a serious face.
"I know what treasure the mermaid stole!"
Before Harry and the others could speak, he continued, "Qiu Zhang disappeared after dinner last night, and I didn't see her this morning either."
"So, she is the baby I need to rescue from the mermaid in the second task. Check quickly to see which of your friends has disappeared."
"Astoria!" Malfoy exclaimed, and quickly looked towards the Slytherin table, but as expected, she was nowhere to be seen.
Harry looked carefully and found that Ron and Hermione were there, but the little red-haired girl Ginny was not there.
The fact is clear: their baby is their Christmas dance partner.
"We have to hurry, the faster the better! I'm worried they can't handle it. Check the potions and alchemy tools again, come on."
The three of them looked solemn, and hurriedly finished their breakfast, then quickly returned to the dormitory to sort out the last of their equipment and materials. They carefully checked every item to make sure nothing was missing, and even repeatedly confirmed the backup plan.
As the time for the game drew closer, Harry and the other two gathered in front of the auditorium. Without any further delay, they left the castle and headed straight for the competition venue.
From a distance, they saw a huge new auditorium built beside the Black Lake. It was in a semicircle and surrounded one side of the Black Lake, like a giant hand embracing the lake.
In front of the auditorium, five huge magic screens were hung high, with the Swann Alchemy logo shining brightly behind them.
The lakeside was already crowded with people, and many students had obviously arrived earlier than them.
The auditorium was packed to the brim. Excited spectators were scrambling to find the best viewing angle, pointing and screaming at the center of the arena. The atmosphere was filled with anticipation and enthusiasm.
Harry and the other two didn't bother to take a closer look and hurried towards the entrance of the stadium. Ludo Bagman, who had been waiting for a long time, came to meet them.
Bagman, wearing the iconic bright yellow jersey of the Hornets and with a big smile on his face, greeted them enthusiastically: "You three are the only ones left. Come on, come on!"
Harry and the other two exchanged a few pleasantries and followed Bagman's lead towards the small dock in the center of the stadium.
The dock was newly built and looked very sturdy. The other warriors had already arrived and were waiting for the game to begin.
Everyone came prepared, wearing swimsuits, and their hot bodies made the little wizards in the audience scream frequently.
"Furong has such a beautiful figure, I can't get enough of looking at her!"
"Look at Krum's eight-pack abs. I admit, I'm envious!"
"The Warriors are all in good shape, which is a good bonus for this game."
"Hey, stay away from me, your saliva is almost dripping on my robe!"
Seeing this, Harry and the other two went straight into the changing tent next to the dock. After a while, they changed into short-sleeved shirts and shorts and walked out simply and neatly.
Unlike others, they have a cylindrical alchemical prop tied to each of their left and right calves. If you look closely, you can see that the cylinder is hollow and there is a fan-like blade in the center of the cylinder.
Seeing Harry and the others appear, Bagman smiled slightly and said, "Last night, we took away the most beloved treasures of all the warriors and placed them deep in the Black Lake this morning. Your task is to find the treasure and bring it out successfully within the specified time."
"The time limit is three hours. Once you exceed the time limit, the consequences will be very serious."
With the help of the amplification spell, Bagman's voice appeared clearly in the ears of every audience. The young wizards were very curious about what the so-called treasure was and started discussing it.
Bagman didn't keep the secret, but pointed to the big screen and said, "Now I will reveal to you what the treasure is."
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, five large screens lit up one by one.
It was a mermaid village with a huge mermaid statue standing in the center of the village.
Around the statue, a circle of fifteen people were tied to the rocks, motionless, as if in a deep sleep.
The little wizards could see at a glance that those were their classmates. The sharp-eyed little wizards also discovered that most of them were the warriors' Christmas dance partners.
Of course, there are some exceptions. Fleur's baby is her sister Gabrielle, while Krum and another Durmstrang female warrior's babies are their friends.
Sebastian came up and said, "I'm the safety officer for this game. Everyone is familiar with me."
"In order to increase the difficulty of the competition, I will place each warrior at different entry points around the Black Lake before entering the water."
He opened the Traceless Stretching Bag, and watch-shaped alchemical props flew towards the warriors.
"Please wear it on your wrist. This is an alchemical watch that will ensure you can reunite with your teammates underwater."
"Please relax from now on."
