, the fastest update to the latest chapter on the day of the Hogwarts draw!

[Hufflepuff's Gold Cup (damaged): The token of Helga Hufflepuff, the founder of Hogwarts, may have magical powers before it was damaged, but now it's just an ordinary gold cup]

Tom played with the gold cup in his hand. This golden cup that once belonged to Hufflepuff, and later became Voldemort's Horcrux, has now become an ordinary cup that can no longer be ordinary. However, it is not quite right to say that it is ordinary, because aside from magic, this cup is made of pure gold, and even if it loses various magical effects, it is still worth a few dollars.

At this time, there was a very obvious reddish-brown streak on Hufflepuff's gold cup, which looked like it was rusted. Yes, gold rusts too! Although the chemical properties of gold itself are extremely stable, its chemical affinity with sulfides is very strong, and it is easy to adsorb hydrogen sulfide-like acid gases in the air, so that the surface appears dark colors such as orange and reddish brown. Not to mention the limited ancient craftsmanship, gold often contains a lot of impurities.

Tom knew that this line should be the mark left by Dumbledore after slashing with the Gryffindor sword. Gryffindor's sword is a good thing. The silverware made by goblins can absorb things that can strengthen it. I don't know how many poisonous magical animals were killed by Gryffindor with this sword. Destroying a Horcrux is always a sword and one piece, and there is no need to make up for it.

"What's the research?" Hermione leaned on Tom's shoulder a little bored, playing with her hair on her fingers, while staring at the gold cup in Tom's hand.

"You can take it for a drink if you want." Tom pressed his cheek to the edge of Hermione's bun, rubbing it back and forth, rubbing his ears.

"I don't want it." Hermione felt uncomfortable at the thought that the cup had been Voldemort's Horcrux, and she certainly wouldn't drink from it.

"Well, as you..."

Hermione wanted to say something, but her face suddenly turned red, she said in a low voice but hastily: "Tom, don't do this... The library is a public place..."

"Oh? How do I remember someone was in the library... [oh]?"

Hermione's face was as red as sunset.

"It was an accident..."

"Accidental?"

"Yes!"

...

When the two were frolicking, Professor McGonagall's bald donkey appeared, which startled them.

"Five points will be deducted from Ravenclaw for making noise in the library." Professor McGonagall was also young, so she naturally knew what the **** the couples were up to, so she mercilessly deducted points for the two of them.

"Mr. Yodel, please come to my office after dinner today." Professor McGonagall said in a flat tone after slightly punishing the two.

Tom: ? ? ?

He could put an egg in his mouth.

"Professor McGonagall, you must have done something wrong? This...how could it be me? You'd better ask someone else to be clever - of course, if it's Hermione, please allow me to refuse for her." Subject to the non-disclosure agreement , Tom couldn't reveal too much, but he still chose to insinuate Professor McGonagall madly and let her change her choice.

Yes, before the start of the second event of the Triwizard Tournament, the organizers will find the warriors who value the most and sink them to the bottom of Black Lake. Warriors need to pass a series of tests to pass the level and rescue the people they value most.

Tom thought that was ridiculous. Who is the most important person to the Warriors? Isn't it up to the organizers to choose?

Although he is very idealistic, Tom also recognizes it. It is too outrageous to choose himself, right? Does anyone among these three warriors have any intersection with him? Tom thought Dumbledore was up to something.

Professor McGonagall glanced at Tom, said nothing, and left the library, leaving Tom sitting there with a very bad expression.

"So what's the content of the second project? Why are you so angry?" Hermione was extremely curious. She and Tom sat at a table in the back of the Charms classroom, chatting with confidence.

This class is perfect for desertion, because the spell being practiced today is the Exorcism Charm - the opposite of the Flying Spell, which drives objects away from wizards, so there's a lot of chaos in the classroom, which gives Tom and Hermione a chance to say some whispers.

"It's okay to talk to you..." Tom told Hermione why Professor McGonagall came to him.

"To be honest, I was surprised because I couldn't understand why it was me. If it was you, it would make sense, but why was it me who was chosen?"

Hermione:  …

"Maybe you are the most important person to Miss Delacour," she said quietly.

"What a joke!" Tom was shocked. "Her most important person should be her sister!"

"How do you know she has a sister?"

Tom:  …

Can't talk today!

As a result, Tom finally went to Professor McGonagall's office at night. When he opened the door, he found that Qiu Zhang, Luna and Professor McGonagall were already waiting inside.

Tom raised his eyebrows, now it was clear that Hermione was right. Qiu Zhang is Cedric's most important baby, Luna is Krum's, and after screening, she is Furong's.

"Professor, there must be something wrong..." Tom felt his throat dry, what's the situation? There doesn't seem to be any intersection between him and Furong, right?

Why did you choose me? How does this make me explain to Hermione?

Professor McGonagall has not been willing to confront Tom until now.

It turned out that the organizers had found opportunities to contact the three warriors, and hypnotized and interrogated the three. Afterwards, they also modified the memories of the three.

The most important person in the hearts of the three warriors is based on the results of the inquiry.

Hearing what Professor McGonagall said, Qiu Zhang's face turned red all of a sudden, Luna's eyes flashed with joy, only Tom's eyes were full of fear.

Seeing Tom's ghostly look, Professor McGonagall cleared his throat, "Yordle, you're not the first person Miss Delacour mentioned... It's just that her first person left some time ago. Hogwarts, it's not very convenient now, so we took the person who was second most important to her, or the person that she cared about most."

Professor McGonagall seemed to be holding back a smile, "Miss Delacour's resentment towards you is not small."

Tom's face suddenly became very exciting: didn't you just refuse her dance partner invitation, as for it?

"Hope you can help us, Yodel." Professor McGonagall stared at Tom sternly.

"She won't leave me in the end, will she?" Tom felt that the moment Fleur saw him at the bottom of the lake, he might choose to keep him there.

"It's okay, we'll fish you out." Professor McGonagall assured.

Tom:  …

In the end, he reluctantly drank the potion provided by Professor McGonagall and fell into a deep sleep.

Early the next morning, the game started as planned. The auditorium on the edge of the Black Lake was filled with students from the three schools. Below the auditorium, there was a small wooden building built around the lake.

The students were talking a lot, guessing what was inside the wooden building.

"There may be a wizard in each room, and the warriors have to defeat the wizard to get to the next floor."

"How can there be so many wizards... Has a senior and senior sister been brought into the project this time?"

"It doesn't seem like it. I didn't see any missing faces."

Listening to the buzzing in her ear, Hermione was a little distracted, and she didn't understand why her boyfriend suddenly became the most important person to other women. Yesterday, before Tom had time to tell Hermione the truth, Professor McGonagall stumbled over him. So if she knew that Tom was Fleur's backup, or that she was on the list because she rejected Fleur, Hermione would have laughed until her stomach hurt.

She was just glad she was quick, and now Tom was hers.

How can Furong like him again? Tom Yodell's first kiss wasn't your Fleur's, it was my Hermione Granger!

When the three warriors gathered, they were speechless.

Without him, the three of them were all confused about the project in front of them.

After the first project ended, they didn't get much information about the second project. At this time, the three people standing on the edge of the black lake all had a bad premonition in their hearts.

After waiting for everyone, Ludo Bagman walked to the most conspicuous position in the stands and told everyone the rules of the game.

"First of all, we want to review the results of the three Warriors in the first round, Cedric Diggory, who scored 88 points in the first event, currently ranks first, from Durmstrang Victor Klum scored 40 points and was second for the time being, Fleur Delacour in Beauxbatons - 32 points, she needs to work harder!" Ludo Bagman blushed, looking at Get very excited.

The reason for his excitement is very simple, he does not need to pay back the money!

In the World Cup finals, he owed a lot of money to the goblins. The background of these goblins is so deep that as a senior official of the Ministry of Magic, he did not dare to default on his debts, so he could only obediently find a way to repay the money. But a while ago, there was a sudden thunderstorm at Gringotts, and a large group of high-level executives were imprisoned. They are still imprisoned, including Bagman's creditors.

When the creditor is gone, there is no need to pay back the money, which is why Bagman is so happy.

"In the second project, the warriors need to go through layers of trials to save the most important and most concerned person in their hearts, and their "baby" is now... there -" Bagman shouted Road, fingers pointed to the Black Lake.

"That's right, the bottom of the Black Lake! We sank the most important person in the three warriors' hearts to the bottom of the lake! They have three hours to take back what they took. If they haven't taken it back in three hours... ...hehe!" Bagman's voice resounded across the lake, and the expressions of the three warriors changed dramatically.

Bagman didn't say what happened to the three after the timeout, but his hey hey laughter was really hard to reassure.

The three immediately looked towards the lake, but as far as they could see, they could see nothing but the dark lake water.

The black lake water seems to be enough to swallow all hope and vitality. No one knows what is under the water. This challenge is enough to make people with deep-sea phobia die on the spot.

Looking at the deep, bottomless lake, Furong's face turned pale. In her opinion, the person who was sunk in the black lake must be her sister! Before Voldemort and his Death Eaters made a big noise, for the sake of safety, Fleur sent her sister back to her hometown to hide.

She didn't understand a little. She had already sent her sister back to her hometown, so how could she still be involved?

Krum and Cedric also looked a little unnatural. They were both quickly looking for countermeasures, looking for ways to keep themselves active underwater for hours.

"We once said that the advantages of the first project will be carried into the second project, so the three warriors are invited to come over, and the organizer provides them with some props to help them solve their problems." Bagman The voice rang in the ears of the three.

Immediately they walked towards Bagman.

Bagman beckoned, and a table appeared in front of the warriors with two things on it. The one on the left looks like a tangled mass of gray-green rat tails, and the one on the right is a metal can with a scale on it, attached to a breathing mask, and a booklet under it.

Cedric, who came from a wizarding family, was at a loss as to what was on the right, but he knew the plant on the left. It was something called gillgrass, which allowed people to breathe underwater.

Fleur and Krum, who were on the side, knew a little about the Muggle world, so they recognized it, and on the table was the scuba that Muggles used for diving. This is a self-contained underwater breathing apparatus that allows the diver to breathe freely with it.

"Placed in front of you are two kinds of props that can help you. The gills on the left needs 30 points to be redeemed, and the scuba on the right is 20 points - don't worry, I have to tell you, You can't directly enter the Black Lake next, you need to go through those wooden houses first, but we can still simplify the process by integrating points!" Bagman stopped Cedric's hand that stretched out to Gillsweed and motioned him to listen first Finish yourself.

"There are a total of three tests in those wooden buildings, but you can choose to skip the test by spending your points - 30 points for the first test, you can't be deceived!"

Hearing that there is such a regulation, the three warriors immediately made an abacus in their hearts.

There are only two props, which means that if the two people in front choose to buy props, the third-ranked Furong has no choice. But Krum's points are a bit embarrassing. He can't jump out of the level after buying props, and if he is trapped in the level and can't get out, it's not good...

There are also pros and cons of props. Gillwort is better than scuba, not to mention whether the three wizards will use scuba, the weight of scuba alone is enough for them to seriously consider it - if you choose it, you have to carry this thing to rush to the level, Wan Wan Once there are levels with a lot of exercise, it will definitely be exhausted.

"Okay, let's choose according to the score! Mr. Diggory, have you considered it?" Ludo Bagman looked at Cedric expectantly.

Cedric made his decision after a little thought.
