v4 Chapter 168: Closing and settlement

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

Cedric's approach alarmed the mermaids in the settlement. They swam out of their stone dwellings and looked at Cedric, the uninvited guest, with malicious intent.

Looking at the spears in the merman's hands and their strong arms and tails, Cedric smashed his mouth. He is now a little fortunate that these merman are not hostile forces.

Don't think they only have spears, if Cedric is really fighting, they can't get enough of them.

Cedric carefully observed the world of mermaids and found that they were fundamentally different from the magical animals he had seen before. Other magical animals, even as powerful as fire dragons and sacred as unicorns, do not have such a meticulous social division of labor.

In Cedric's eyes, the mermaids already have the appearance of primitive tribes, they have their own style buildings, and they raise other magical animals as their hunting helpers-some dwellings will have a Grindillo tied in front of the door, and others Clear distinction between status and wealth.

Some dwellings are just a simple stone shell. Others have a Grindillo in front of the door, surrounded by a garden full of aquatic plants. In general, the closer to the inside, the more "luxurious" the merman's house is, and the stronger the merman inside.

Cedric heard the singing faintly, and he understood that the mermaid was letting him pass by singing, so he swam towards the singing, which was the center of the mermaid village.

Along the way, more and more mermaids emerged, curiously looking at this strange guest. For mermaids, wizards are also rare creatures that are rarely seen in a hundred years.

The number of mermen grew so much that Cedric couldn't even count them. Just looking at this number, and taking into account their social structure ahead of their peers, Cedric established one fact: the merfolk are well-deserved underwater overlords.

The sky and land of the wizarding world belong to wizards, while the water belongs to mermaids.

He also noticed that the mermaids that appeared here were all male.

Maybe the female mermaid will be more beautiful! The idea suddenly popped into his mind.

There is a small square in the center of the mermaid village, where Cedric saw a huge mermaid Shishu, and on Shishu's tail, tied three people: Tom, Qiu Zhang, and Luna.

Around the statue was a large group of mermaids singing in unison.

The three hostages were sleeping, and a string of thin blisters kept coming out of their mouths.

The potion that Professor McGonagall poured into them allowed them to breathe freely underwater, as if returning to their mother's belly.

Cedric spit out a bunch of bubbles, took out a knife from his pocket, and cut off the rope tied to Qiu Zhang's body.

After rescuing Qiu Zhang, Cedric suddenly had a crazy idea: If he took away the most important "baby" of the other warriors, wouldn't they be unable to complete the mission?

"No, you can only take your own hostages." A seven-foot-tall merman stopped him, using a spear in his hand to persuade Cedric to give up his bold idea.

"Okay." Cedric wasn't an iron-headed boy either, and he immediately brought Qiu Zhang to the surface when he found that there was no loophole to exploit.

Next, he must return to the surface as soon as possible to retain more remaining time and obtain higher scores.

About ten minutes after Cedric left, Krum came to the mermaid village with a shark head on.

His speed is amazing.

In fact, in the wooden building, Krum was delayed far less than Cedric. After recklessly passing through Madame Maxime's test, he rushed into the third floor with a murderous aura. He was lucky, and soon found something strange on the sundial, and then he adopted the exact same idea, blowing off the root of the tree, and passing Dumbledore's test.

Dumbledore had nothing to say to these little wizards who didn't play cards according to the routine.

After arriving at the mermaid village, it took Krum some effort to bring Luna back, just seven minutes behind Cedric.

In the end, Cedric completed the race in one hour and fifty-three minutes, while Krum took two full hours.

When the two were rubbing their bodies on the shore, they saw Furong running out of the wooden building in a hurry. She broke through the triple level abruptly, so that both Cedric and Krum were finished. Just solved the challenge in the wooden building.

But to Dumbledore's relief, Fleur perfectly understood his intentions, found the various organs he left behind, and used the correct ideas to complete the challenge.

Seeing the two people rubbing their bodies on the shore, Furong's heart was half cold. But she didn't have time to delay, Furong bit the bullet and ate the gills, and a scorpion plunged into the lake.

With the help of Gillwort, Hibiscus was much faster than the other two warriors. But when she saw Tom Yodell sleeping at the bottom of the lake, Fleur still broke the defense.

She confirmed to the mermaid leader over and over that this was her mission goal. It was not until she asked the mermaid that she had no choice but to confirm the fact that the organizer of the competition really thought that her baby was Tom.

At least not having to let her sister soak in the bottom of the lake, Furong comforted herself and brought Tom back to the shore.

The final score was not unexpected, with Cedric, who took the shortest time, achieving the highest score. But the gap between him and Krum didn't widen either - Krum's crisp performance from the back was so brilliant that it gave him a high score of 60 points, just seven behind Cedric.

In addition to the remaining points before the two, Cedric is still the first with 75 points, and Krum has 70 points, ranking second with a disadvantage of 5 points.

Furong is even worse. Even though Dumbledore gave her a perfect score, she only scored 45 in the second category, which brings her overall score to 47...

It can be seen that the champion of the Triwizard Tournament seems to have nothing to do with her.

The second project, which narrowed the gap between Cedric and Krum, also created a suspense of the outcome between the two.

After the three Warriors' scores were read out, the second project was about to end.

"The last project will be held on the evening of June 24th. This time the warriors will be informed of the specific content of the project in advance Thank you for your support and love for the warriors, we will see you in June!" In Bagman's high voice, the second event of the Triwizard Tournament was completely over.

"Some warm drink?" Hermione walked over to the shivering Tom and shoved a small kettle into his hand.

"Thank you." Although he was wiped dry as soon as he came up, Tom, who had been soaked in ice water for three hours, still felt uncomfortable. He couldn't wait to open the hot kettle and found that it was filled with cinnamon wine.

This is a very special drink. It is heated with cinnamon powder and red wine. It has the effect of repelling cold and is very suitable for people who have a cold. Although the taste is a little weird, it is just right for Tom now.
