Capítulo 439: Chapter 439 Adventures at the Bottom of the Lake (End)
On the shore, it is already afternoon, the students are hungry, and Ludo Bagman's commentary is becoming strained, but no one chooses to leave. The tournament is drawing to a close, and most of the champions (except those caught by the merpeople) have gained enough golden gems that they just need to reach the last stop and gather together to finish the tournament successfully.
"By the third hour of the tournament, the champions are physically exhausted, and with the first champion managing to gather all the golden gems, the entire merpeople tribe is mobilized to patrol the Black Lake, which puts the champions in even more danger." Bagman said in a hoarse voice.
Felix stood at the edge of the lake, rubbing his nose, wondering if the merpeople chief had misunderstood the meaning of him sending a magic gramophone and became extra diligent. From an hour and a half ago, the merpeople guards led the tamed Grindylows around the black lake and caught one exhausted champion after another.
Those who were not caught before, at this moment also hid without daring to show themselves.
...
Ron breathed a long sigh of relief, finally passed, he did not know if this counts as a loophole he found, but he found that if he failed once, he could continue a second and third time ... and he also found a second secret, only when the wheel turned to the Muggle Studies, History of Magic, he could choose the option between open and closed books test.
Knowing this secret, he found the best method for him to pass - constantly choosing blue levels, and when he by chance encounters these two subjects, he will select the open book option, then he will turn the book to find the answer, he may fail two or three times in the middle, but he will definitely pass in the end.
After passing the level, he will select the nearby topography map to find the location of the golden gem.
As he yawned, Ron felt like he had returned to the classroom, instead of being in a dangerous tournament of champions, and was very glad he had flipped through The Strange Adventures of Mick the Little Wizard several times, so much he knew ...
The blue level and the purple level both come with their own protective shield, a rare safe area. Ron took a deep breath and prepared to find the seventh golden gem, with one foot just stepping out, he noticed a tall, sturdy figure swimming past him.
It was Uagadou's Champion, and Ron turned his gaze in the direction he had come from. Noticing a group of merpeople aggressively pursuing from there, Ron retracted his foot with a grin.
Unfortunately, merpeople spotted him. This tall merman blew a whistle on his chest, and three of them stayed behind, encircling him. Despite the general ugliness of the merpeople, Ron recognized the leader by his clothing and bone decoration.
Ron gulped, he is the one he had kicked once.
The merman also obviously recognized Ron, showing a mouth full of fangs and a happy grin. At that moment, the light of multiple spells illuminated the waters.
The two merpeople instantly fell to the ground, their hair fluttering like braids, and Ron also held up his wand and recited a stunning spell.
The stunning spell went through the water, slowing down significantly, but still with this close, the spell hit the leading merman of the merpeople who looked at Ron in disbelief, as he froze, and fell in the mud.
Harry and Hermione came out of the corner.
"How did you guys run into each other?" Ron asked through the bubble-head charm.
"After collecting the seven golden gems, the watch can show the location of the companion, and there were three small red dots, I assumed some kind of tracking spell must have been applied ... I found Harry first and was going to come over to you immediately, but we bumped into a large crowd of merpeople moving out... . They are too flexible in the water, Harry used the light of the Patronus to deter them, then we took that opportunity to escape ..."
Hermione explained, then looked at Ron, "By the way, how many golden gems are you short of?"
"The last one, and I already know the location." Ron rushed to say.
"Then let's hurry up," Hermione said with a pale face, "it's been too long, I don't know if we're the last group."
"Definitely not," Ron said, "I just saw an Uagadou champion, and he's being chased by a group of merpeople."
"Oh, I guess he can't get away unless--" Hermione said pessimistically, suddenly staring wide-eyed as a loud bang came from not far away as a cloud of sand flew.
"Hermione, you and Ron go find the gem, I'll check out the situation." Harry said.
They quickly separated, and a few minutes later Ron and Hermione found the gem without incident, but the noise grew louder and louder, screaming heard distantly in the water everywhere.
After a while, Harry returned.
"Go!" He shouted, his expression looked panicky. "What's wrong?" Ron asked in wonder.
"Run and talk!" Harry said decisively as they hurried toward the final location, the sound of rushing getting closer behind them, as if a thousand horses are chasing after them, a tall tornado of water carrying a mass of mud and sand formed a yellow-brown whirlpool.
" A few teams of champions have reached an agreement, they stormed into the merpeople square, rescued all the hostages, I saw Durmstrang, Ilvermorny, Cedric, and the rest!" Harry said as he braced the humanoid shield charm.
"And Uagadou." Ron said with a pale face.
"How do you know?" Harry asked casually as they got closer to their goal.
"I saw that elephant guy ..." Ron said with a blank look in his eyes.
Harry and Hermione could not help but look back, a few hundred feet behind them, bright light illuminated the bottom of the lake (Harry guessed that Cedric used illumination), an elephant shook out its trunk and charged forward, muddy sand spread out, thoroughly churning the bottom of the lake out. On the body of the elephant sat a dozen people whom he saw before, including Cedric, Collins, Roger, Krum, Fleur, and two other Uagadou champions.
"What are we going to do?" Ron asked hesitantly.
Less than two hundred feet from them, a high platform stood at the bottom of the lake, and a flicker caught their eye.
"You guys go first." Harry said.
"There's no need to be a hero, they'll be fine ..."
"No," Harry hesitated, "I know they'll be fine, I just want to use a spell. You guys leave, I'll be there soon, we'll be number one this time!"
"Then use it, we'll wait!" Hermione said impatiently.
Harry took a deep breath and raised his wand horizontally, he is now completely recovered his normal magic power, can exert his full power, and the key thing is, he happened to thought of something when he saw Professor Hap rushing in a silver cloak before ...
This made him see more possibilities for this charm.
"ex-PEK-toh pa-TRO-num... "
A huge silver light burst out and a silver solid Patronus stampeded through the silver waves and rushed in the direction of the elephant, which got surrounded by hundreds of merpeople, even more grindylows, and a few sharks that formed a huge encirclement.
After he recited the incantation, Ron pulled him and rushed towards the high platform. The other side -
"What now?" Collins asked.
"Does anyone have any more ice bombs?" Cedric asked.
"They're all used up." Byers replied.
"Let's charge through them hard!" Graves shouted, his face looked white as paper, or, of course, it could have been from a long time soaking in the water.
"Look over there--"
A large silver stag rushed over, the lake had no effect on it, it quickly swept past the crowd, and stood between them and the merpeople, emitting a ring of silver ripples. The merpeople had never seen a Patronus before, and for a moment they didn't dare to approach, looking warily at the big thing that had suddenly appeared.
"Let's get out of here! Let's use transfiguration to buy time!" Cedric was the first to come to his senses, as he recognized the Patronus.
The elephant galloped up again, and the rocks and aquatic plants behind them transformed into hounds, shields, and ropes under the effect of Transfiguration, as they made their way to the high platform.
Harry, Ron, and Hermione sat on the high platform, exhausted.
