Chapter 570: First Communication with the Mermaid

The Hogwarts Wizardry Newspaper reported on the Triwizard Tournament and the content of the interview was published in print the day after the interview. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

This report caused a great sensation and repercussions in the wizarding world.

With the exception of vampire arrests, which still haven't made much progress, Triwizard Tournament is the hottest topic in the wizarding world right now.

The wizards all wanted to know who the warriors of the three magic schools were, and their basic situation.

Also, the specific reasons why there is an extra warrior, and the content of the championship and so on.

Evan and Hermione's reports were timely, and the detailed content also satisfied everyone's desire to explore, and the sales were very good.

This is not surprising, but it is strange that Rita Skeeter's report has not been published for a long time.

She and the Daily Prophet didn't seem to be in a hurry, and it was clear that their focus was not the same as that of Evan and Hermione.

It seems that they plan to wait for the Hogwarts Wizardry and Wizardry article to pass before publishing their own report.

Over the next two weeks, school life returned to its former tranquillity.

Hufflepuff and Slytherin seem to have finally grown tired of the endless hostility with Gryffindor, and although not very friendly, they have been able to communicate and talk to the others normally, only when confronted by Ron, with obvious hostility and endless ridicule.

Gabrielle became more and more familiar with everyone else, and became a complete part of Gryffindor.

Ron also finally recovered from the excitement of being a warrior and began to think about how to face his first project.

He finally began to be a little scared of the unknown, dangerous, and extremely difficult magical activity he had to complete in front of everyone in the school, and with the help of Aven, Harry, and Hermione, he made up a lot of magic knowledge and spells.

These things are too low-level, and Ron has a lot of homework and a lot to learn.

Still, Evan couldn't see how learning these low-level spells would help him when dealing with fire dragons.

And Ron didn't study too hard, and spent a lot of energy on other things. Although he began to pay attention to this matter, in general, he still did not realize the seriousness of the incident, and he did not expect that the first project content would actually be a fire dragon!

In addition to occasionally mentoring Ron, Aven's mermaid language has finally been introduced.

At least, that's what he thought, and he memorized most of the words he saw in the book.

At the end of his second week, he plans to go to the lake to try to communicate with the merfolk and test his learning.

If you're lucky, you might be able to get information about the Big Four's Secret Treasure Key.

Unlike the lake near the Centaur Tribe's Moon Temple, the lake in front of the school castle is wider and deeper.

After a quick five-minute dive through a strange dark and hazy landscape, Evan reached the bottom of the lake.

There are undulating, tangled jungles of black aquatic weeds, and wide, flat sand strewn with shiny pebbles.

Moving on, you may encounter schools of fish and giant squid at any time.

In the middle of the lake, he also saw many mermaid remains.

For example, a large rock erected in the murky water of the lake, painted with a number of mermaids, with spears in their hands, chasing something that looks like a giant squid or a strange stone statue.

After some exploration, Evan found the Merfolk tribe in the deepest hollow in the middle of the lake.

It was a huge village with many rough stone dwellings, speckled with algae.

As Evan approached, inside the dark windows, some faces suddenly appeared, peering at him, all merfolk.

This scene is creepy enough, in the deepest part of the dark water, Evan is instantly surrounded by merfolk coming out from all directions.

Unlike the blonde mermaids in fairy tales, their skin is iron-gray, their dark green hair is long, unkempt, and they have a malicious smile on their faces, like monsters emerging from the abyss.

Their eyes are yellow, their mutilated teeth are yellow, and they wear pebbles strung with thick ropes around their necks.

These merfolk slapped the lake with their thick and powerful silver tails.

After seeing Aiwen, they didn't say a word, and directly attacked with the spears in their hands.

After a brief period of contact, Evan was able to communicate with them calmly.

Of course, he did it not in the language he had just learned, but in magic.

It wasn't that difficult, and the merfolk looked fierce, but when they saw the glow coming from the wand in Aven's hand, they immediately turned around and fled back into the stone dwellings.

Evan had never seen such a timid creature before, and they had yellow eyes on their faces staring at Evan's wand, looking terrified.

Despite their numbers, Evan was alone.

The look on their faces showed that, like the giant squid, they knew nothing about magic and remained in awe.

Evan used his magic to control the nearest mermaid, a very strong fellow.

He stared at the big yellow eyes, staring at Evan and the wand in his hand in horror, his body trembling.

The ensuing communication was also not smooth, and it was not pleasant to keep spitting bubbles out of your mouth in the water.

Judging by the look on the guy opposite, Evan was skeptical that he could understand what he was saying.

It took a few seconds or so for him to spit out a large pile of bubbles at Aven.

This time, Evan could be sure that he definitely couldn't understand what the other person was saying, and he could only make out a few words.

Just as he was about to try further, the mermaid he had controlled couldn't stand the stimulation and simply fainted.

Evan smiled bitterly, not expecting such an outcome.

Looking around, the dark stone dwellings are like haunted houses, and there is no trace of those mermaids anymore.

In the end, he had to abandon this failed exchange, and went up to leave the dark and cold waters of the lake, and return to the castle.

It definitely won't work like this, and this failed communication experience has taught Evan that he should prepare some gifts for these timid merfolk.

Perhaps, this will make them feel their kindness.

From the book "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them", we know that the first mermaids appeared in ancient Greece.

They live in warmer waters, and have a handsome appearance and a strong ability to use magic.

After thousands of years of development, mermaids are now found all over the world, and their appearance is also diverse.

Depending on where they live, their appearance and abilities will vary.

To put it simply, the merfolk who settled in the lake in front of Hogwarts Castle were a bunch of ugly creatures that couldn't do magic.

They may have strong physical strength, but they have nothing to do with the merfolk that appear frequently in many legends and myths.

A love of music was probably the only hobby they inherited from their distant ancestors.

Evan decided that the next time he came, he would have some human classics for them, and that might make a difference. (To be continued.) )
