Chapter 312 Admission of all parties(1/2)
John and others walked into the Quidditch pitch.
The place has become completely unrecognizable.
A hedge twenty feet high surrounded the edge of the field.
There was a gap in front of them, which was the entrance to this large maze. The passage inside was dark and a bit scary.
Five minutes later, people started to enter the stands.
Hundreds of students filed into their seats, and the air was filled with excited voices and chaotic footsteps.
The sky was now a clear dark blue, but soon the stars began to appear, and then Hagrid, Snape, Professor Moody, Professor McGonagall and Professor Flitwick walked into the sports ground and walked towards Bagman and several warriors.
Come. They all had big shining red stars on their hats, except Hagrid, whose red star was on the back of his terry vest.
"We will patrol outside the maze," Professor McGonagall said to the warriors. "If you encounter difficulties and want to be rescued, just shoot red sparks into the sky and someone will come to help you. Do you understand?"
After John and others all nodded, Professor McGonagall, Snape and other professors dispersed in different directions.
Before leaving, Snape took one last deep look at John and Michelle.
In exchange, Michelle waved goodbye.
Joining them on patrol tonight are the twenty Aurors from the Ministry of Magic.
Faced with such a powerful force, anyone with some knowledge of it would praise Fudge for his emphasis on security.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the last competition of the Triwizard Tournament is about to begin!"
Bagman activated [Loud Voice] and began to broadcast the report excitedly, "Let me report the current score - John Shafiq, well-deserved first, with a total of 93 points, belongs to Hogwarts House!"
There was a huge cheer in the stands.
Bagman waited for a moment to let the cheers spread before continuing his report:
"Next is John Michelle...Krum, and finally Fleur! The ranking order I reported above will determine the order in which the warriors enter the competition!
So now...John, listen to my whistle! One...two...three!"
With a short whistle, the third project was officially announced.
However, John did not rush into the maze as quickly as everyone imagined, but waited where he was.
It wasn't until Bagman announced Michelle's name that he stayed by Michelle's side and rushed out together.
Bagman shouted:
"It seems that our two Shafiqs plan to work together on a project. This is indeed very smart, but in the third project, this kind of behavior is not allowed..."
I don't know if it's because the hedge is tall and dense, or because it's enchanted.
As soon as John and Michelle entered the maze, Bagman's voice and the cheers of the audience disappeared.
This turn of events made John frown slightly.
He just seemed to vaguely hear Bagman saying what was not allowed in this Triwizard Tournament?
Shaking his head, John threw away all the messy thoughts and handed out a tube of magic potion to Michelle.
"Night vision potion allows people to see clearly in the dark." John said, "In terms of practicality, it is better than [fluorescent flash], but it is a bit expensive."
Michelle drank the potion without hesitation, and then cheered at the change in her vision.
John, who also drank the night vision potion, smiled slightly when he saw this.
He was also shocked when he used this potion for the first time.
This effect is really great.
"Come on, Michelle, we have to hurry up."
John urged softly.
When Michelle heard this, she said 'hmm', took John's hand and ran forward together.
John's route selection was very purposeful.
He took Michelle directly and started to circle north. At the same time, he turned right at the first fork in the road, and then turned left...
Different from the imagination of ordinary viewers, the third project actually started when Bagman summoned them to the Quidditch stadium to announce the content of the game.
At that time, John had already recorded the approximate location of the end of the maze through observation, as well as the route to the key point.
He believed that other warriors must have done the same.
The maze is getting darker every minute.
As John and Michelle ran wildly, the sky outside gradually turned dark blue.
Until now, they have not encountered any obstacles.
However, just as they turned right again, a huge creature suddenly appeared in front of them.
It's Hagrid's poisonous horned beast!
It's different from the first time I met it.
After Hagrid's careful raising for such a long time, it is now as big as a tank.
Especially the horn on the head, its overall length is astonishing, but it is extremely sharp, making it scary to look at.
It arched and arched on the hedge, as if it was scratching an itch.
But during the activity, John saw orange-red liquid seeping out from the tip of the horn and flowing into the hedge.
"boom--"
The next moment, a violent explosion sounded.
As the air surged, the poisonous horned beast itself was pushed forward and staggered.
But the hedge itself had only a small hole.
Obviously, the hedge was fully enchanted and was not as fragile as it looked.
John's expression was a little solemn.
No matter how you say it, the poison horned beast is a XXXX level magical animal. It is not weak in danger and needs to be treated with caution.
With this in mind, John was quietly preparing to launch an attack.
At this moment, Michelle on the side cheered and immediately rushed towards the poisonous horned beast.
"Little rhinoceros! It's really you!"
Michelle's actions shocked both John and the Poison Horn.
But soon, John put down his wand.
Because Michelle has already become involved with the poisonous horned beast.
The relationship between the man and the beast seems to be very good. The poisonous horned beast not only responds to Michelle's hugs and head pats, but even cups the fresh leaves that it has just blown off the ground, wanting to share them with Michelle.
"I won't eat it, little rhinoceros, we still have a competition, so you have to be good if you stay here alone."
Michelle said goodbye to the poisonous horned beast and followed John deeper into the maze.
The poisonous horned beast raised its head and hissed as a greeting, then gnawed all the leaves on the ground in one gulp, and then inserted its horn into the hedge, hoping to blow off some more.
This scene made Michelle laugh.
John felt a little speechless.
However, he quickly adjusted his thoughts and continued moving forward with Michelle.
After turning several more corners, a thick black-purple fog stood in front of them.
John did not take Michelle rashly to go deep, but used some magic to test it first.
However, almost all magic spells, including [Patronus Curse], [Shadowless Blade] and [Whirlwind Sweep], had no effect on the thick fog.
"Let's find another way."
John made this decision carefully.
He took Michelle back to the previous fork in the road, and then chose another path.
But not long after they walked on this road, the same wall of fog appeared in front of them.
"It seems like there is a wall of fog blocking the road every day." John said thoughtfully, "So this is a test that every warrior must pass head-on?"
"In that case, there's nothing more to say, John, let's rush!"
Michelle said with a smile.
John looked at him and nodded.
The two held hands and rushed directly into the mist.
As soon as he entered the fog, John noticed something was wrong.
An almost unstoppable sense of dizziness came instantly.
This feeling is so familiar to him!
