Chapter 224 Underwater surprises and manpower splitting the lake
John actually didn’t quite understand the second game. It wasn’t like the first game where you could watch it live.
A group of people looked at the dark lake and couldn't see anything. It looked like they were stupid. The wizard's brain circuit was just different.
John saw several students as if they were on live broadcast, frantically thinking about how to find people in the water.
Those who didn’t know, thought he had gone down to fish for people.
The lively atmosphere gradually calmed down, and John could only say that this game was extremely unwatchable.
As time passed, a bubble suddenly appeared on the water surface.
It was only a very small one, but John had sharp eyes and saw it all at once.
"Someone is coming out."
After he finished speaking, others also noticed.
They were extremely excited and wanted to see who could succeed first.
The students from the three schools are looking forward to it, hoping to be from their own school, under everyone's gaze.
A head emerged from the water, with bright silver hair spread out in the water. The girl's beautiful face had become much pale after soaking in it for too long. It was really worthy of being called a water hibiscus.
It's Fleur Delacour.
Furong looked bad. She swam towards the shore, but there was no one rescued around her.
"Something attacked me in the water and popped my blisters."
After Fleur came ashore, her body tilted and almost fell. John noticed the scratches on Fleur's body, as if something was holding her.
Cough loudly and spit out the water that has been choked in the nose.
The corners of Fleur's eyes turned red from coughing. A Beauxbatons student quickly stepped forward and took out a towel to cover her. John took off his wizard robe to cover her.
Fleur, who was wearing wizard robes, had tears in her eyes. She grabbed John's hand and said anxiously: "Gabriel, she is still there, the mermaid attacked me."
John's expression darkened and he looked up at Dumbledore.
When Dumbledore heard Fleur's words, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes.
He has communicated with the creatures in the black lake and will not help the warriors, but he will not attack them either.
"Tearing the Bubble Curse will cause the warrior to drown." John said in a deep voice, "This is to kill the warrior."
Hearing his words, the people around him took a deep breath.
Especially the students, they never thought that there would be possible deaths in this game.
Dumbledore knew the seriousness of the matter, and his voice became shrill. This was the mermaid language, and he was calling the mermaid.
But when he called, the mermaid did not appear.
Things were getting more and more out of control. Dumbledore's expression became serious, and he went to several referees to discuss it.
His original intention was to pause the game to see what was going on.
But Karkaroff didn't want to say anything. Krum hadn't come out yet, and Beauxbatons had been eliminated.
Under such a stalemate, the bottom of the water bubbled gurglingly again.
A head popped out, it was Cedric. He rescued Qiu Zhang, but he didn't look good.
"The mermaids are crazy, and there are Grindylows. They are hunting for warriors in the water."
Cedric held a head full of water plants and said, "I hid in the water plants and waited for the right moment to rescue him."
His words brought more uneasiness to the students.
Cedric came to John and told him more terrible news.
"When I arrived, the group of mermaids seemed to want to kill the hostages."
…
Harry was pulled all the way by those hands. He wanted to resist and was dragged all the way.
When he was dragged out of the water plant, he finally saw who it was.
It's Grindylow. They have weapons in their hands. There are four or five of them, trying to drown people in the water one by one.
Harry finally touched the wand, and he found the opportunity to attack Grindylow.
I thought it would be difficult, but these guys collapsed at the first touch.
Screaming and running away.
After being dragged for a while, he was finally free.
Looking around, he found that this was a mermaid village.
There is a rough statue standing in the square. It is a statue of a big mermaid with three people tied to its tail.
In addition to Ron, there was Hermione and an eight-year-old girl.
With bright silver hair, Harry remembered the little girl in John's tent during the World Cup.
They all seemed to be asleep, with little bubbles coming out of their mouths.
Harry swam hard towards the hostages, the mermaids seemed unable to see him.
He stepped forward and wanted to pull away the rope.
But the rope was far more difficult to open than he thought. He found a sharp stone from the ground to cut the rope.
Just when he was about to cut off, he saw the mermaids moving.
A guy with a shark head swam over quickly, and the mermaids who were motionless in front of Harry immediately chased him with forks.
The shark was transformed by Klum. He was startled and hurriedly avoided, but the mermaid refused to let him go.
Krum lost the chance of rescue and was constantly driven away by the mermaid.
Harry finally broke the rope. Just as he was about to save the others, he saw the mermaid showing a fierce look towards him.
He realized something was wrong. A mermaid actually picked up a fork and attacked the two people who were still untied.
Harry hurriedly stepped forward to stop the mermaid, but the mermaids did not attack him, but other mermaids came over and attacked the hostages.
"Krum."
He yelled anxiously, with blisters gushing from his mouth.
Krum also noticed something was wrong and rushed forward to knock away the mermaid who was attacking Hermione.
A mermaid's spear pierced Krum's ankle, causing him to scream in pain and bite the mermaid on the arm.
More mermaids gathered around, and Harry took out his wand and attacked continuously.
…
An hour passed.
No third person came up.
Karkaroff still refused to let go. He firmly believed that Krum could complete the task.
John looked gloomy, and Cedric said that the mermaids might be preparing to kill the hostages at some point.
This is no joke, there is something wrong with this project today.
If Cedric hadn't been faster and smarter, maybe he would have been eliminated like Fleur.
Fleur also heard Cedric's words, and she cried and asked Madame Maxime to save Gabrielle.
But the referee has to remain impartial, so if Karkaroff doesn't let go, others can't suspend the game.
John took a deep breath. Since the referee didn't help, he took action himself.
He asked in a deep voice: "Cedric, which direction is it?"
Cedric immediately pointed out the location of the mermaid village. John stood on the shore and held his hands in the air.
A silver sword emerged from his right hand.
"You guys get out of the way and give me a way."
When he spoke, Malfoy was the first to shout loudly and drive away those in front of him.
Everyone looked at John with confusion, and Dumbledore also stopped arguing.
John stepped into the lake with his feet, closed his eyes slightly, and dispersed the magic power into the lake.
The ring on his right hand exudes an endless stream of magic power, which is injected into the sword of Silver Wake.
Holding the sword of Silver Wick high, John whispered strange syllables.
"Spirit of the Black Lake, show me the way. This sword cuts through all things in this world and drives out evil."
Opening the palm of his left hand, a fist-sized ball of lake water fell into his palm. It did not spread out, but attached to Silver Wake's sword like a slime, creating an extra transparent scabbard for Silver Wick.
Ancient magic, he holds the water element and can communicate with Black Lake, and at the same time obtains permission from Black Lake.
Blessed by the water of the Black Lake, John holds the sword in both hands.
Karkaroff shouted and questioned Dumbledore, saying: "What is he going to do, Dumbledore, is this what you mean!"
Ms. Maxim didn't know what John was going to do. Fleur came to her side and said, "The mermaid in the water is crazy. John wants to save people."
"Save people?" Ms. Maxim was a little confused, so why did John stand on the shore?
Dumbledore's eyes flashed strangely, and he also wanted to see how John could save people.
Just after everyone's attention was focused on John, John finished singing.
His eyes opened and turned into dragon eyes, and a pressure was revealed from his body.
His hair moved automatically without wind, and his hands tightly grasped the hilt of the sword.
"Crush the thorns and thorns!"
The self-created cutting curse was poured into the sword at this moment, runes floated out from the sword, and John swung the sword suddenly.
The blade of the sword sliced across the lake.
In the midst of everyone’s frightened eyes.
The lake water separated.
An invisible trace started from the sword body and spread rapidly towards the center of the lake.
The divided lake water split to both sides like jelly.
The speed was so fast that people could see the huge black lake being cut in half.
In the center of the lake, a mermaid village appeared.
This scene made everyone present stunned and widened their eyes.
The people standing in the lake are as if the sea **** descended at this moment, cutting open the lake water and dividing the lake with manpower.
…
Chapter 225 Search and Passivity
In the mermaid village, each mermaid lost their footing and fell into the mud.
Krum, who was stabbed in the ankle, returned to his human form, his feet dripping with blood.
Harry was also stunned by everything.
After leaving the water, the spell on the three hostages was lifted, and they woke up one after another.
"Oh my god, what's going on?" Ron looked at all this in disbelief.
Gabrielle and Hermione spit out a mouthful of water. They were equally confused.
A wave of coercion fell, and the mermaids who had originally wanted to take action screamed and crawled towards the water walls on both sides.
"Gabriel—"
Fleur screamed, and Gabrielle raised her eyes to see that the separated lake water was like a cliff.
