Won The First Place Again, And The Reward Is In The Pocket!
In the stands, those who are familiar with Lucas can feel his aura from this huge pressure.
Hermione and Ginny breathed a sigh of relief at the same time. Then, the two looked at each other and smiled, all the worries in their hearts were gone.
The magic pressure that was supposed to bring fear to people has brought a sense of security to many people at this moment.
The students of Slytherin let go of their worries as well.
Luna Lovegood also let go of the somewhat deformed Snorkack.
While a familiar smile appeared on the Weasley twins' faces again.
Although the sense of oppression caused by the magic pressure made the audience feel uncomfortable.
Most people's worries were also assuaged by this pressure, because it's impossible for a magical creature like Kappas to have such a magic pressure.
So the answer is obvious, it must be some wizard underwater.
"Look at the Black Lake!"
The voice of a little wizard in the stands overwhelmed the surrounding discussion and all eyes were turned onto the lake.
They saw a large vortex appearing in the center of the black lake expanding at a very fast speed.
"Dumbledore, what's going on here?"
Facing Karkaroff's questioning, Dumbledore shook his head blankly.
…
Underwater, a blinding white light burst from the tip of Lucas' wand.
As he kept waving, the magic power melded into the nearby waters along the wand.
It didn't take long for a whirlpool to form under Black Lake.
"Come here!" Lucas yelled as he completely released his elf aura.
Several huge tentacles with suction cups suddenly appeared.
Each tentacle rolled seemingly randomly, and more than a dozen Kappas were easily captured. Even Harry was swept away by the tentacles.
Then a huge squid came under Lucas' feet.
Putting his feet on top of the squid's head, Lucas casts a combination spell on the surrounding lake.
Transfiguration + Severing Charm.
Lucas opened his eyes and pointed his wand at the lake.
Starting from the tip of the wand, the lake quickly separated to both sides.
…
In the stands, the audience who were waiting for Lucas' return soon discovered the change in the water level of the Black Lake.
Before they could investigate, the water from the center of the Black Lake to the shore quickly surged to both sides.
The black aquatic plants at the bottom of the lake gradually appeared in front of everyone and soon, a 20-meter-wide channel appeared in the Black Lake.
There was no lake water in this channel, and at the end of the channel was Lucas and the giant squid!
There was silence on the shore, and everyone had trouble recovering from the shock.
"The lake was divided?"
The words of a bearded man in the audience were like a switch. Thunderous applause and cheers erupted from the stands.
The Slytherin students abandoned their usual calm and grace, stood up and shouted, staring at Lucas on the head of the giant squid.
"This is our Chief!"
"He's the Chief of Slytherin House!"
Lucas's strength deeply shocked everyone.
This time is different from the first task.
That time everyone put more energy into fighting the unbearable heat and couldn't pay close attention.
It wasn't until the magic was over that ,after thinking about it, everyone felt that Lucas's magic was very powerful.
But this time it was a complete visual shock.
Just at the moment when the lake water parted, a powerful magic force rushed towards the direction of the judges seats.
If it wasn't for Dumbledore blocking it, Percy and Bagman would all be injured.
Madame Maxime stared blankly at the giant squid in the center of the lake, then she saw those rescued hostages lying on the squid's head.
"It's really powerful magic, it's like a sharp sword directly opening the lake and two hands holding it in place."
This was the first time Madame Maxime praised someone from another school.
Karkaroff's pupils quivered, all he wished now was that Lucas was a generous man who didn't hold a grudge over petty matters.
The biggest hit was Barty Crouch Jr. pretending to be Moody. He has only felt such a powerful magic power from his master.
'Quasi-legendary! Lucas Grindelwald, your threat is too great.'
Barty Crouch Jr's eyes were full of fear.
But he knew that small tricks could no longer solve the threat of Lucas. Now he just hoped to help Voldemort get a new body smoothly.
Only in that way, he has absolute certainty that his master can defeat Lucas, the newly promoted quasi-legendary wizard.
The giant squid extended its tentacles to the shore to place the hostages who had just awakened and were still in a dazed state.
When they saw the judges on the shore they finally breathed a sigh of relief.
They probably thought the task had gone well. Little did they know, the few of them had wandered between life and death just now.
"Gabrielle! Gabby, are you all right?"
Fleur separated from the crowd and held her younger sister in her arms.
"Sister, I'm fine, did something happen?"
The little girl knows how to read words and expressions. She noticed something in the eyes of the people surrounding them looking at her.
"I'm sorry, Gabby, I'm useless as a sister, it's great to have you back."
Fleur did not answer her sister's question, she just hugged Gabrielle tightly again, and then walked in front of Lucas.
"Thank you, Lucas, for rescuing Gabrielle!"
The enthusiastic French girl put her arms around Lucas' neck and kissed him fiercely.
The audience in the stands erupted into louder cheers. Heroes and beauties have always been hot topics for human beings.
Cho rolled his eyes and silently let go of Lucas' arm.
Just at this moment, Hermione and Ginny rushed over and she learned from the two of them what happened just now.
At this time, the black lake returned to calm.
The giant squid also returned to the bottom of the lake. It left those Kappas on the shore, and the Hogwarts professors took them over.
As for Harry?
He was very dissatisfied with Lucas attacking him and pulled the waking Ron aside to complain.
"If I hadn't blown the whistle, he might have been torn to pieces by Kappas. How could he even attack me? It's simply too ungrateful."
Although Ron didn't know anything about what happened yet, when he heard the topic was about Grindelwald, he immediately echoed: "Yes, that's the kind of person he is."
"Quiet! Everyone, please be quiet!"
Dumbledore's booming voice sounded.
Both the audience in the stands and the people involved in the task looked at him.
"Although there were many accidents in this task, we still saw the performance of the champions."
"Next, I will leave you with Mr. Bagman."
Ludo Bagman's expression was very ugly at the moment. His eyes swept across the faces of the crowd, and finally settled on the contestants.
"Just now, our champions encountered an unprecedented crisis."
"But they were not afraid of danger, and some even went into the water again to rescue their friends."
Bagman paused for a few seconds and deliberately looked at Harry. He probably wanted to use this method to increase everyone's attention to Harry Potter.
"Through the discussion of our five judges, the premise is that the full score is 50 points."
"It was decided to give Harry Potter, Fleur Delacour, Cedric Diggory and Viktor Krum 25 points each."
"This is in recognition of the four people's wonderful magic spells and their fearless spirit in the face of danger."
There was some warm applause from the stands, but everyone wanted to know how many points Lucas would get.
In fact, everyone already has the answer in their hearts. They just wanted to see if the decisions made by the judges were consistent with their own.
If Lucas didn't get full marks, these people in the audience will probably not let them go easily.
"Quiet everyone, next is Mr Lucas Grindelwald's score."
"Mr. Grindelwald showed unparalleled strength in the task just now."
"And he successfully rescued all the hostages so let's give him a big round of applause!"
The audience was more than happy to cooperate.
Thunderous applause sounded, and Lucas once again became the focus of everyone.
Bagman waved his hand, and continued after everyone was quiet again.
"So our five judges decided to give Mr. Grindelwald a perfect score of 50."
The sound of cheers and applause resounded instantly.
After finally restoring the calm lake surface, the sound waves produced by the cheers created circles of ripples in the water.
Bagman didn't wait for everyone to be quiet and listen to him finish his words this time.
So he faced the champions and said loudly: "For the other champions, don't be discouraged yet..."
"There is still the final task, as long as you win the last task you still have the hope of winning the tournament."
"Next, let's look at the overall scores of the champions."
"First of all, Mr. Grindelwald, who is at the top of the list, has a cumulative score of 97 points in the two tasks."
Bagman's words more than doubled the cheers in the stands.
He didn't stop to wait for everyone to stop making noise, but continued with a louder voice.
"Mr Potter and Mr Krum are tied for second place, and their cumulative scores of the two tasks is 65 points."
"The third place is Miss Fleur Delacour, with a total of 59 points from the two tasks."
"And the fourth place is Mr. Diggory, with a total of 58 points."
"As a judge, I would like to remind the champions that the points they have currently will determine the order in which they start the third task."
"So get ready, the last task will be on June 24th, and the champions will know the specific content of the task one month in advance."
Ludo Bagman announced the time of the final task, and then announced the end of the current task.
He hurriedly walked off the judge's seat, and walked towards the castle with a panicked expression.
[Ding, congratulations to the host for completing the second task and winning first place; reward: a chance to draw a platinum prize.]
With the second reward in hand, Lucas didn't rush to draw the lottery.
He first comforted his frightened girlfriends, especially Cho.
Although she didn't experience those horrible things, now, when she heard other people's stories, she still became scared.
After comforting the three girls and sending them back to their dormitories, Lucas celebrated again with Slytherins in the common room.
It wasn't until it got dark that he finally returned to his room.
"System, start a platinum lottery draw!"
The familiar prize pool appeared, accompanied by a platinum light that flew into his eyes.
A system prompt came from Lucas' ear.
[This platinum lottery draw is over, congratulations to the host for getting the reward: a skill breakthrough scroll.]
He is quite satisfied with this reward.
The forbidden spell he used in the first task, Seraphim's Elegy, was obtained through the skill breakthrough scroll.
Lucas took out the scroll. At the same time, he took a bottle of Felix Felicis and drank it.
His gaze scrolled through his many full-level spells and finally chose the Patronus Charm (level 9)
In terms of attack power he is not lacking, and he is backed by his powerful magic power, so even his ordinary magic spells are still powerful.
Lucas wanted to see the full-level Patronus Charm, and what skills could be obtained if a breakthrough was made.
Accompanied by a burst of dazzling light, a new skill appeared in front of his eyes.
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining a new magic: Forbidden Magic–Forbidden Wall of Sighs.]
[Forbidden Wall of Sighs: Nothing in the world can break through the defenses of the Wall of Sighs, and likewise no one can break through the shackles of the Wall of Sighs.]
Having gotten another powerful spell, and seeing that this time it was a defensive forbidden spell, Lucas shut down the system in satisfaction.
The tiring day consumed a lot of mana, so Lucas lay down on the bed after a simple wash.
…
This night, anyone who watched the second task couldn't sleep.
As long as they close their eyes, a magnificent scene of the lake being divided will appear in front of them.
Also unable to sleep were the staff of the Daily Prophet.
The reporters wrote furiously, striving to report the situation of the second match of the Triwizard Tournament before tomorrow morning.
Rita Skeeter was writing Lucas' heroic deeds in person this time.
The night passed in the blink of an eye.
Ronald Weasley, as someone who participated in the second task, got up early in the morning to show off everywhere to anyone who would listen and even those who didn't want to listen.
Everyone was very curious about what happened underwater, so Ron finally got the attention he had been waiting for his whole life.
However, his version became more and more outrageous each time he told it, and in the end it even turned into himself fighting against 50 mermaids.
But the students listened with great interest, and no one cared about it.
…
"Lucas Grindelwald, follow me to the office immediately."
Lucas, who just woke up, was called away by Professor Snape before he could get out of the common room.
Looking at the Professor's gloomy expression, it seemed that something very serious happened.
