Chapter 699

……

This is a Sphinx.

Magic part class level: XXX. Sphinx in Egypt is a sphinx with a human head.

For more than a thousand years, it has been used by witches to protect their precious items and secret places. Sphinx is a very intelligent animal. He likes riddles and word puzzles. It usually becomes dangerous only when the things it guards are threatened.

It has the body of a big lion: huge claws, a long yellow tail; and the head is the head of a woman.

As Harry approached, the Sphinx turned her eyes and looked at him. Harry raised his wand hesitantly.

She didn't squat down, but walked back and forth between the two sides of the road, keeping Harry from moving forward. Then she spoke, in a low, hoarse voice. "You're so close to your goal that the nearest way is to pass through me."

"Well, then, will you please give way?" Harry asked, but he knew what the answer would be. It's just that Harry felt like he was weak enough to ask.

"No," replied the genie, continuing to walk up and down there, "unless you can solve my riddle. I'll let you go. If the answer is wrong, I will attack you. If you don't answer, I'll let you go, and I won't hurt you. "

Harry cried to himself.

It's Hermione's best at guessing. She's not good at it. But he thought again and again, if the riddle is too difficult, he won't answer it, so that he can safely leave here and find another line.

"Well," Harry replied, "let's work out the question."

The Sphinx squatted down in the middle of the road and recited aloud, "please think of a person who often hides his identity. He always lies when he doesn't tell the truth. What is the best thing to fill, but in the middle of the middle and the end of the end? Finally, if you can't find out the difficult words, what will people say? Please string together and answer this question. Which animal do you not want to kiss? "

Harry listened, his mouth wide open. "I can listen once Can you slow down? " He tried to ask.

Sphinx blinked, laughed, and read the poem again.

"Which means that all the clues together are equal to the animal I don't want to kiss?" Harry asked again. She just smiles mysteriously. Harry thought that was equivalent to saying "yes.".

So Harry thought hard. There were a lot of animals he didn't want to kiss. The first thing he thought of was the "windmill monster". But it can't be the answer. It seems that he has to try other clues

"The man who hides his identity," Harry murmured, his eyes fixed on the genie, "this man is a liar Well It could be He's a liar. No, don't worry. This is not my answer! A spy, a spy? First of all Can you give me the next clue? "

Sphinx read the last few lines of the poem again.

"The last thing to mend," Harry muttered, "well, I can't think of it The middle of the middle Can you repeat the ending? "

Sphinx read the last four lines again.

"The sound of finding difficult words," Harry murmured, "er That is, er. Yeah, yeah! It's the sound of "Er!" The genie laughed at him.

"Spy, er, spy, er," said Harry, walking up and down, repeating the words, "animals I don't want to kiss By the way, it's spiders

(editor's note: in English, "spy" is "spy", "Er" is "Er" and "spider" is "spider". ）

the genie is smiling. She stood up, stretched her forelegs, and went aside to let Harry pass. Thank you Harry said in a hurry. He didn't expect to be so powerful. He went on.

He's getting closer and closer to the middle of the maze, but he's still not sure The wand told him that he was on the right path now. As long as he did not encounter any major difficulties, he might win

There are several paths ahead.

"Give me directions!" Harry said to the wand. “Poineme！”

The wand turned and stopped to point to the path on the right.

He ran down the road.

After a while, Harry saw a light ahead. It's not a hundred yards from the base.

That's the point. After so many things

In fact, he was lucky, at least he didn't come across anything. But can it really end so safely?

Compared with hibiscus or Krum, Harry's experience seems to be a little too little. He doesn't do anything except clean up some small dark creatures.

Harry's heart is a little uneasy. Perhaps his biggest test is the Sphinx level. Sphinx is a very powerful magical creature. The place she guards is no less than the treasure protected by the dragon. However, Harry answers the question of Sphinx,

in this way, Sphinx will not attack him, she will only guard a junction nothing more.So that's how the maze tests?

Can not deny, Harry's nervous mood has never left, especially to see the Goblet of fire not far away, Harry's nervous mood is more intense.

Just run over and grab it with your hands.

It's that simple.

Harry calmed down. Just as Harry wanted to run past, a dark figure jumped out and ran to the front.

It looks like Cedric will arrive before Harry.

Cedric is running at full speed for the cup. Harry knows he can't catch up with him. Cedric is taller than himself and has long legs All of a sudden, Harry saw a huge thing coming out of the hedge on his left and running straight down the intersection.

The monster ran so fast that Cedric almost ran into it. At this time, Cedric's eyes only focused on the trophy, did not see the monster just rushed

"Cedric Harry tore at his throat and yelled, "on your left! Be careful

Cedric turned his head to see, just in time to fly past, did not hit the monster, but because he was too busy, Cedric tripped over the vines on the ground.

The wand flew out of Cedric's hand in an instant.

Now the monster A giant spider steps up the path and begins to move towards Cedric.

"Stupefy!" Harry called out in a hurry. Harry turned his wrist, and a coma curse hit him out.

The curse hits the hairy giant body of the spider. But the blow didn't seem to work. It was like throwing a small stone. The spider got angry and turned and ran towards Harry.

“Stupefy！ Impedimenta！ Stupefy！” Harry kept yelling, but none of them worked It may be that the spider is too big and magical. Ordinary incantation doesn't hurt it, but it infuriates it.

Harry looked up and saw the spider. His eight black eyes gave out an aggressive cold light, and several giant pincerlike stings, sharp as knives, were coming foolishly.

The spider lifted Harry up, and Harry struggled and kicked him, but Harry's foot was caught in his tongs.

In the agony, he heard Cedric yell out the curse of coma, but his curse was also useless.

At this time, the spider opened its sting again, and Harry raised his wand and yelled, "EXPELLIARMUS!"

It works this time.

The "Disarm curse" forced the spider to release its tongs. Unfortunately, the release caused Harry to fall from a height of 12 feet, and his injured thigh immediately fell down.

Not to think about it, Harry picked up his wand and aimed it at the spider's belly and swore at Cedric at the same time.

"Sectumsextra!"

"Stupefy!"
