v2 Chapter 494： spooky bone mountain

"Honestly, I think it might be a little harder for these kids - but if they can think of a solution, it shouldn't be too big of a problem?"

Ms. Maxime, who was sitting in the chair, exchanged her cocked legs, and her movements had an elegance that did not match her huge body, which made her look a little weird.

Dumbledore smiled and said, "If they can think of putting a Confusion Charm on themselves, the Mermaid Song will have no effect on them."

Karkaroff on the side didn't look very happy, since he heard the specific content of the second challenge just now.

"Dumbledore! You didn't say that the content of the second game would lead to amnesia! What if Krum forgot his Seeker smell, which he depends on for a living?"

Before Dumbledore could speak, Grindelwald glanced at Karkaroff, who immediately fell silent.

However, Dumbledore explained mildly: "This is the result of the rune inscription, which essentially blocks a user's memory, rather than erasing that memory - if they finally want to finish the game, go to Just find a way to unlock this inscription."

Hearing Dumbledore's words, Karkaroff instinctively wanted to snort, but he refrained immediately - Dumbledore is a good talker, but Grindelwald is obviously not.

Hearing Karkaroff's stiff cough, Ms. Maxim, who was originally calm, also cleared her throat: "I really hope they don't have any trouble at the bottom of the lake..."

…

"Listen, the easiest way to get through the Mermaid Song is to give yourself a Confusion Charm, so that this essentially magical song can't affect your brain. After all, a brain that's already confused can't be Confused," Sean explained.

The mermaid song is really easy to solve, for wizards who understand this kind of singing - it just so happens that Sean heard it from the other side when he was studying with Grindelwald.

Daisy on the side was a little puzzled. Her face that penetrated the bubble looked bulging: "If we are hit by the Confusion Charm, how do we get to the most central place?"

Stephanie said: "If the wizard's magic spell is strong enough, he can control the strength of the Confusion Charm, so that even if the brain is in a state of confusion, he can have a general goal - but since there are three people in the team, it can be controlled by the others. The wizard has helped remotely without being affected, which should be one of the goals of the jury to set up this project."

Sean nodded: "It should have been solved by three people working together, but we have an easier way..."

Stephanie was stunned for a moment, and then immediately reacted: "So that's the case, yes..."

Daisy turned her head back and forth like a tennis court audience: "There is still a way, what way? Why did you think of it all at once?"

Sean smiled: "Isn't the solution under us?"

"Under the body?" Daisy looked down, and was surrounded by a group of resilient water plants.

She suddenly realized: "Yes."

The horse-shaped water monster is different from the wizard. It has much higher magic resistance than the normal wizard, and the instinct of the creature is stronger than that of the wizard.

"The Mermaid Song doesn't work for the horse-shaped water monster, um, it's too easy for us." Sean didn't say a word.

It's so simple that he feels that someone has opened a back door for him - he maintains a good friendship with the horse-shaped water monster in the Black Lake, and it is impossible for Professor Dumbledore to not know this...

Sure enough, the old man was hiding a lot of things from the organizers behind his back...

"Just let the horse-shaped water monster carry me there. It's not safe if all three of them are in a state of confusion," Sean said.

Stephanie and Daisy both nodded, this was indeed the best choice.

Both raised their wands, ready to strike at the merfolk if anything went wrong. Also, although there is no one around now, other contestants may come over at any time, and they may interrupt Sean's progress in order to prevent Sean from winning.

As soon as he said it, Sean let the little Lake Selma monster lurking aside and reconfirmed that there was no danger - he even opened the entrance and exit of the ring, if the sea monster suddenly appeared, the adult Selma Lake The monster will directly kill all the creatures here.

The resilient water grass of the horse-shaped water monster gently wrapped Sean, and then swam straight towards the center of the mermaid group under Sean's command.

And Sean, who cast the Confusion Charm on himself, only felt that the world was turned upside down for a while, and his sense of direction was suddenly lost, but he still maintained the most basic sobriety.

As soon as he entered the effective range of the Mermaid Song, another chaotic feeling also tried to rush into Sean's mind, but the head of the lake that was originally a puddle refused the entry of another spoiler.

The mermaids looked at each other, and they saw a huge horse-shaped water monster swimming towards what they wanted to protect, and the horse-shaped water monster was carrying a contestant they were supposed to stop.

This makes the fishes a little puzzled. The horse-shaped water monster is an external force. Does it need to be blocked?

The mermaid leader thought for a moment, and it made a series of harsh screams, indicating that the clansmen did not need to make additional actions-this was not within the scope they agreed with the wizard.

In this way, the horse-shaped water monster carrying Sean passed through a large group of mermaids very smoothly. The mermaids kept singing songs that could confuse consciousness with their mouths open.

Soon, the horse-shaped water monster took Sean to the center, and each of the five thick chains locked a stone at the end.

"This is what I'm looking for..." Sean left little consciousness, but enough for him to react to the final goal.

He swam over a little lost in the lake, and then grabbed a rune inscribed stone.

A warm feeling surged from his arm - a strange metaphor popped into Sean's mind when he was awake.

It's like a mermaid peeing on her arm...

He shook his head and threw away the inappropriate metaphor, completely sobering up.

The lost piece of memory really reappeared in his heart again, and, to Sean's surprise, the Runestone inscription not only lifted the shield of his memory, but also unlocked the Confusion Curse by the way.

He was going to grab it in his hand, and then go back and let Stephanie and the others unlock the Confusion Curse for him.

This is a good thing. If you carry it with you, you will be immune to the Confusion Charm... Sean looked at the Runestone inscription in his hand, and such an idea came to his mind.

But just think about it, the engraved stone is firmly bound by the chains, obviously they are not going to let them take it away.

Immune to Confusion Charm isn't too useful... Shawn comforted himself.

Only then did he have a clear consciousness to look around.

The mermaids are not close to the center. They seem to be just the guardians of the periphery. When Sean enters, they are still singing, but they have no intention of hindering Sean's actions.

And the center is the staggered point of the five chains. The chains are tied to a lot of bones. The bones have different shapes, merman, human, fish, beast...

All kinds of white bones formed a pile of bone mountains, which looked extremely cold at the bottom of this dark lake.

There is still such a place at the bottom of the black lake. Is this the territory of the mermaid? But I saw that weird sea monster here before...

Sean looked at the bone mountain, and suddenly his eyes narrowed.

That is…

He turned his head and looked around, made sure the mermaids didn't care about him, and then swam over.

There is a small flat in the center of the bone mountain, which seems to have been artificially trimmed, and there are several skulls scattered in the center of the flat.

That skull was the source of Sean's doubts.

He's seen this stuff.

At the beginning, he rashly broke into another secret room of Slytherin, but happened to accidentally meet the basilisk living there, and physically met eyes - he slammed it.

Because of his arrogance, Sean could look straight at everything, but he was still in a coma for a whole week because his ability was not strong enough at the time.

According to Dave, the basilisk brought back a strange skull from the Black Lake, which he said could help Sean.

It was a strange white-boned skull. It should have been some kind of canine animal when it was alive. The whole body showed a dull fluorescent white, and there was a dark red fire surging inside the sharp fangs.

The fire inside jumped into Sean's body, helping him recover faster.

The skull Sean was also taken away at the time, but nothing was researched, so it was put in the ring.

Now, there are several skulls almost identical to the one in his ring scattered in front of Sean's eyes.

Where did the basilisk get the skull from?

Sean lowered his head and looked at it carefully, confirming that it was almost the same as the one in his ring.

There was a dazzling fire in the skull, which was not conspicuous in the dim lake water.

Wait... Sean was stunned for a moment, and then Tong Kong shrank back.

The shape of this skull…

It is very similar to the wolf head on the waist of the sea monster!

And those wolf heads also spit fire in their mouths after the sea monster woke up.

Could it be that this is the lair of the sea monster, and this is the corpse left by its kind?

But why is this place occupied by mermaids and used as a competition venue?

No, it should be said, why did I see that sea monster, but now it has disappeared without a trace?

It's so weird...

While thinking about it, a sturdy mermaid closest to Sean suddenly made a series of harsh sounds.

"Humans! Don't linger!"

Sean raised his head in surprise: "You can speak human language?"

The mermaid seemed to be the leader, and it bared its teeth at Sean: "A little, not much!"

I heard that Professor Dumbledore can speak mermaid language, but I don't know that mermaid can speak English. Although there are not many words, it is especially London accent...

Sean scratched his head: "I've finished the game?"

"Of course, don't stay." The mermaid leader said again.

The second level was completed so well that it didn't feel real... Sean pointed to the bone mountain under him: "Is this your territory?"

"No, we want water plants and fish, there are a lot of them! There are none here." The mermaid can answer any questions. Although it looks fierce, it is surprisingly easy to talk...

Sean still didn't rush to leave: "Then Professor Dumbledore asked you to guard this place?"

The merman nodded: "Yes, Dumbledore! He gave something, we'll come!"

This place is not the territory of the mermaid, it is temporarily guarded by the mermaid as a competition venue... Sean nodded thoughtfully.

He continued to ask, "Then when did you come here?"

The merfolk leader looked impatient, but answered Sean's question anyway.

"You, after entering the water, we will rush over."

"Then when you came over, did you find anything wrong with the creatures here?"

"No, there has been no living thing here, water plants, fish, mermaids, and Grindylo will not live here." The mermaid leader replied.

Strange, the mermaids should move much faster in the lake than him. Although he initially used the trajectory flash to shorten the distance, he still swam for a while...

Didn't the mermaids find that weird sea monster? No, to be precise, as the aborigines in the Black Lake, in their impression, there is no biological activity here.

If there are sea monsters entrenched here, they will not be unaware.

"Is there anything weird about the place itself?" Sean asked tentatively.

The mermaid leader bared his teeth at him impatiently: "I'm just a mermaid!"

Sean: "…"

It seems that I can't continue to ask... However, what is interesting is that Sean found that his Fantastic Beast Affinity doesn't seem to be so useful when facing the humanoid high-IQ Fantastic Beasts.

This may have something to do with the merman who communicated with Professor Dumbledore.

Sean asked one last question: "Can I take something with me? You know, souvenirs or something..."

"Troublesome humans!" said the merman leader, "except for chains and stones, everything else is fine! It's not fish and water plants!"

Hearing what the other party said, Sean swiftly opened the ring.

Under the shocked gaze of the mermaids, a huge tail stretched out.

The tail is extremely flexible, it stretches out and rolls, like a shovel, it directly surrounds part of the bone mountain.

"Hey, great, here's a little more—" Sean directed with his wand, adding a few spells from time to time.

Then, the mermaids watched as the tail rolled up part of the bone mountain and got into the boy's ring.

They can't even sing. UU reading

The mermaid leader was shocked: "Magic!"

Sean nodded: "Magic!"

The other party immediately put on an expression of admiration: "You are just like old Dumbledore, amazing!"

"It's not going to be --"

Just as he was talking, Yuan Chuan suddenly lit up with the light of the magic spell, and Xiao En Tong Kong shrank. This is the signal that he and Stephanie and the others agreed upon after being attacked!

No more chatting, he grabbed the water plant mane of the water monster, and the mermaid leader was pushed aside by the current. When he looked up again, the water monster and Sean had already swam away quickly.

Soon, Sean saw Stephanie and Daisy on the side of the gully, they were guarding the front of them, and there was a dense water grass area.

The water column and light driven by the magic spell are constantly attacking!

Daring... Sean narrowed his eyes.
