Chapter 41: The Dark Tower (5)
When I was a child, I always seemed to be happy, and even after I fell, I might get up, laugh at everyone, and look at my own embarrassment.
But you can't always be a kid.
Although it could be called a child for Hermione Ron to love Harry's age, in fact they were not very young. Of course, Xie An's guy has never been a child, and maybe he has always been.
Originally, Hermione and Zhang Qiu, who were also good friends, could play and study happily together, but now.
Although it seems that the Zhang Qiu Pettier sisters are in good shape, if they hadn't heard that they stayed in the dormitory for one night on the night of the dance.
Now, the sisters Zhang Qiu and Pettier don't seem to care much about Xie An and Hermione, like strangers.
During this time, Hermione was a little upset, even though the relationship with Xie An was getting better and better, even if they were tired of being together every day.
But what should Shea and Hermione do?
"I don't want to lose three good friends!" Hermione said to Shea in the library one night, but Shea didn't know how to respond.
Regardless, time was slowly moving on, and Harry, unbeknownst to him, learned about the project for the second race, and how to get through it.
Harry looked confident to make it to the final. But soon, an old woman irritates Harry - Rita Skeeter.
That old woman has started to make up Harry's scandal, it seems to be true and false, there are pictures and truths, readers believe, what can Harry do?
The old woman was also troublesome with Xie An, and she was writing about Xie An's flower heart again, but for this kind of news, Xie An and Hermione didn't care.
There was nothing she could do to help Harry's troubles, but looking at Harry's pitiful appearance, he had thought about it and told Harry that the old woman was an Animagus - like a shell or something.
Before the start of the second game, Hermione and Ron were taken away by a mysterious person, and this mystery was well known to everyone.
The second competition also attracted the attention of all the students, who arrived at the arena early to watch.
All the contestants stood in a row, and Bagman returned to the bench after a lap in the middle of the contest, and it is worth mentioning that Percy Weasley was also seated in the referee's seat, who had come to replace Mr. Crouch.
Bagman announced that the competition was about to begin, the players all changed into swimsuits, and Isabel's figure was perfectly revealed, but it didn't look great!
Oh well, Shayne withdrew his gaze as Bagman had already said he was ready, and as he blew his whistle, the four fighters threw themselves into the water.
The bottom of the water was quiet, a biting chill hit, Xie An gently waved his wand at himself, and then his whole body was wrapped in a bubble, and then, he could move easily and quickly, without worrying about breathing, and even talk - this spell was of course also learned from "The Story of Spells".
Although it was easy to be underwater, Xie An could only see ten feet around him, and Xie An could not see anyone else except for the fish swimming around.
"Hey, chick, it's not cold!"
Soon after, Xie An saw Isabel and grinned.
Isabel just glared at Shean as her words turned into a string of bubbles.
The two did not move forward together, and Xie An swam alone for about twenty minutes. Suddenly, he heard someone singing in the distance. He swam over and saw a group of merfolk sitting on a boulder. They are holding spears and catching large squid. As he swam past the rock, he took the opportunity to look at them.
These merfolk were all gray, with dark green hair and yellow eyes, just like their rotten teeth, and when they saw Xie An swimming over, they all glared at him with bad intentions, and some of the merfolk came out of the cave to see what was going on.
Xie An continued to walk, and suddenly, a magical image appeared in front of him, there was a house in a grassy field, and in front of the house there was also a group of mermaids, they were singing around a statue, and under the statue, four people were tied.
"Oh, it's finally here!" Xie An's eyes lit up, and he was about to move forward, but there was movement behind him.
"Hey, Harry, that's a great idea!" it was Harry, and Shayne said enthusiastically, "some kind of aquatic plant or something." Looks like we're going to get Ron out of the way!"
"Knock knock......" Echo Ann replied with a thump of clac, though Harry looked agitated.
The four men tied up there were Ron, Hermione, and a girl with an eye, and a girl who looked no older than eight years old. Her thick silver hair made Xie An immediately conclude that it was Isabelle's sister, and all four of them seemed to be asleep, foaming at the mouth.
Harry gestured to Shea and swam to the statue to untie the rope from Ron. But the weed-twisted rope was thick and tough, and Harry looked around at the merfolk as he swam up to a bearded merfolk and borrowed a spear from him.
"No, we won't help you. He said stiffly in a hoarse voice.
"Harry, look at me!" Shayne waved his wand, and Ron's rope was instantly untied, "Alright, now you can take Ron away quickly!"
Harry gestured to Shay, saying that he would wait for Shay, but Shayne urged him to get Harry a better position, and if Harry was eliminated before the third match, all his efforts would be in vain.
Finally, Harry took Ron first. After a while, Krum came, and the guy was gone in an instant, and the other girl was gone. Then he walked away without looking back.
Xie An shrugged, "I'll catch up with you later!"
Shayne waved her wand and took Hermione with Isabel's sister, Gabrielle Delacour.
The fish-men tried to stop Xie An, "You've taken your things, leave the rest." ”
Xie An gave them a blank look, and then smashed a piece of bluestone with his wand, threatening the fishmen. The fishmen seemed a little scared and retreated.
Shayne hugged Hermione with one hand, pulled Gabrielle with the other, and then walked up easily, and the fishmen followed Shayne, but only followed.
Finally, Xie An's head showed the water, and the light rushed into his eyes, and he smiled slightly. The people on the shore cheered. Meanwhile, Hermione and Gabrielle opened their eyes. The little girl looked confused, while Hermione spat out a large puddle of water, "Shea, you're done!"
"Of course!" Shayne smiled brightly at Hermione, "Oh, yes, and a little tail with me, Isabel's chick is in trouble, and I can't leave a little girl in that dark water." ”
The second competition is over, and after Bagman's announcement, "the third mission will begin at dusk on June 24." Bagman said. "We will notify the participants one month in advance. Thank you for participating, and goodbye. ”
Harry completed the task quickly and well, and Shay was the last one, but due to Shay's kindness, he also got a good result. The most miserable thing is Isabel, this chick did not finish the race, and she became the first person to be eliminated.
But it seemed that Isabel was not too disappointed, as Gabrielle returned to her unscathed.
And her gratitude to Xie An is a verbal thank you.
After the second mission, everyone scrambled to find out what was happening at the bottom of the lake. Ron finally got his wish, and the students asked Ron what happened, and Ron was happy to do so.
However, Ron's retelling of things changes slightly. At first, it seemed as if he was telling the truth of the matter, but a week later, Ron was telling a horrific abduction case of how he had single-handedly dealt with fifty well-armed men who were ready to beat him to his knees and tie him up.
"But I hid my wand in my sleeve. Ron emphasized what he had to say with each hallway, "I can take out those underwater fools at any time." ”
"And what were you going to do then, snoring at them?" Hermione said scathingly.
Ron's ears were red. So he described the scene of being knocked unconscious and falling asleep again.
With the arrival of March, the weather became drier, and whenever the cadets went out, a biting cold wind blew on their hands and faces.
But the cold couldn't stop the heat in everyone's hearts, and as the Triwizard Tournament progressed, they were about to forget about the Quidditch madness.
During the long waiting competition, the students complained about the heavy workload and the dull and happy life continued.
Rita Skeeter's old woman jumped out again, because people liked her gossip, even if it was only to be seen after cooking, after all, it was always exciting to see other people's bad luck or secret things, although people would not admit it.
Harry was undoubtedly the number one target. God knows if Rita Skeeter's old woman will turn into a shell and hide in Harry's hair all the time, it's a great place to hide.
Xie An had bored to imagine that when Harry went to the bathroom or took a shower, would the old woman also be peeping?
Hermione came in a little better, in some things. Because of her unremitting efforts, Zhang Qiu and Pettier actually spoke to her again.
"Why aren't they talking to me yet?" asked Xie An suspiciously, as Hermione said excitedly.
Hermione skimmed Xie An and didn't speak, and then Xie An smiled wryly, of course he knew that everything was because of himself, because he was cheap! Of course he wouldn't admit it, who would admit that he was a slut?
……
An unexpected event occurred during this time, when Mr. Crouch was found in the Forbidden Forest, talking to a tree and speaking fluently.
"Yes, my son has recently passed twelve ordinary wizard level exams. I am satisfied, yes, thank you, yes, very proud. Well, if you can bring me a memorandum from the Ministry of Magic and Magic of Andoron, I think I can have time to draft a reply......"
"Don't ...... Leave...... I!" he whispered, his eyes sticking out again. "I escaped...... Must be warned...... Must be told...... Dumbledore...... My fault...... It's all my fault...... Percy ...... He's dead...... It's all my fault...... My son...... My fault...... Tell Dumbledore...... Harry Potter...... Duke of Darkness...... More powerful...... Harry Potter ......"
This was discovered by Harry, who was also present at the time. This hilarious and exciting thing certainly caused discussion among the students, and the gossip is never endless, if you will.
Back Ron discussed it in the common room as well.
The final conclusion is this. Harry said as he rubbed his forehead. "Either Mr. Crouch attacked Victor, or someone attacked both of them, while Victor wasn't looking at Crouch. ”
"It must be Mr. Crouch. Ron immediately said, "That's why you didn't see him when you and Dumbledore arrived, and he fled." ”
"I don't think so. Harry shook his head, "He looks weak - believe he's using shapeshifting or something." ”
"You can't change shapeshifts at Hogwarts, didn't I tell you hundreds of times?" Hermione looked a little distraught, and she said as she glanced at Shea, who was leisurely beside her.
"Hey, Shea, what do you think?" asked Ron.
"What?" Shayne turned his head, looking confused, apparently he didn't care about Harry's discussion at all.
"Uh...... It's Mr. Crouch, the ...... of the Ministry of Magic," Ron explained.
"Oh, is it?" Xie An showed a surprised expression, "That's weird!" Then, he read the book leisurely.
Mr. Crouch was a good father, a good official, and he had killed his son in Azkaban with his own hands. We can't discuss whether this thing is right or wrong, is there a right or wrong thing?
And Mr. Crouch's son is also a good son, who ran away to be a Death Eater and lick Voldemort's ass, of course, there is a reason, but we can't discuss the reason, because they are all enemies, are you going to pity the enemy?
Xie An suddenly had such a thought in his heart, but he quickly shook his head and laughed at himself, "I'm not a philosopher, it's really ...... to think about these issues in an idle way."
At this time, Hermione suddenly held Xie An's hand and looked at Xie An. Xie An turned his head and smiled brightly, "My dear, we seem to have a good idea!"
Hermione glanced at Shea and glanced at Harry and Ron with a blushing face, but the two guys were still discussing Crouch and didn't see the little movements between the two little couples at all.
As soon as June arrives, the atmosphere in the castle becomes exciting and tense. Everyone is looking forward to the third mission. Because it will start a week before the end of the semester.
Pretty much the same as the previous two races, Harry got the content of the game "accidentally" from Moody or someone else - wandering through a maze.
To this end, Moody and the others also specially trained Harry with some magic spells.
Harry practiced the spell almost every moment. He felt more confident than anyone else in this task.
After two matches, Harry's confidence was blowing and he was already looking forward to it. Poor child.
McGonagall also started a small stove for Harry, and she promised to let Harry use the Transfiguration Room at lunchtime. Harry quickly mastered the Obstacle Charm, a spell that could stop his opponent from advancing or slow him down, the Clear Charm, a spell that quickly cleared solid obstacles, and the Direction Charm, a useful spell that pointed his wand due north.
We have to say that Harry is still quite powerful compared to his peers to a certain extent, you know, he is not just an ordinary child.
Compared with the participating team members, the other students complained bitterly, the exam is approaching, and everyone is doing their homework.
Xie An still looks like a hanger all day long, at least in front of everyone. In fact, he had to work overtime every night, spending painful and happy training with Dumbledore Elsa and others.
"The plan is about to take place, and although it looks like you're not in danger, we still have to train hard!"
One night, when Snape was training Shaan, he actually said this to Shea. He never had a good impression of Xie An, and Xie An once attacked him!
And this time, the dead face rarely said a word of concern to Xie An. Poor and pathetic dead face. Xie An was a little worried, if he really defeated Voldemort, Harry had no threat, no more affectionate dead face of his target, how would he live?
In such busy days, Xie An always looked sleepy during the day, which made him less concerned about the Zhang Qiu Pettier sisters. In fact, the three girls seemed to have recovered, and they often stayed with Hermione, just like before, just ignoring Shea.
Breakfast on the day of the third mission was spent in a noisy row. Owls fluttered overhead, and Harry and Shayne sent greeting cards from Black, as did Elsa, even though she had asked Shaan to show her concern after Dumbledore's wishes the night before.
On the other side of the Slytherin table, Draco was holding the Daily Prophet and reading the story of Rita Skeeter above, reading loudly and mockingly to Harry.
Then, the two put on a repertoire.
After breakfast, Ron Hermione and the others were ready to go back for their exams shortly after, while the Triwizard Tournament players began to assemble as their families would be invited to watch the final match.
When Shea and the others walked into the meeting place, there were already a lot of people, and Viktor Krum stayed in the opposite corner, talking quickly in Bulgarian with his dark-haired parents.
On the other side of the room, Isabel was chatting with her mother in French, her voice a little muffled. And her little sister Gabrielle also came, holding her mother's hand.
Seeing Xie An come in, the little girl smiled and waved to Xie An, so her mother excitedly invited Xie An over and thanked Xie An for saving Gabrielle.
Just when Xie An couldn't stand the enthusiasm of Isabel's mother, Elsa came, she walked straight over, the happiest was Isabel, she jumped up and grabbed Elsa's arm, chattering, which was completely different from her usual.
Harry's "family" also came, not the Dursleys, of course, but the Weasleys. They arrived, not only as Harry's family, but also because they were part of the "Order of the Phoenix"!
……
In the afternoon, at dinner time, Xie An and Elsa returned to the hall.
Ludo Bagman and Cornelius Fudge were already seated in the staff box. Bagman looked pleased, but Connelly Fudge, who sat next to Madame Maxim, kept a straight face and didn't say a word.
The dinner was much more hearty than ever, and Shayne was eating excitedly while talking to Elsa Hermione, but Hermione was not excited at all, she sat silently on the side.
At this time, the color of the ceiling on the top slowly changed from blue to purple, and the faint soft light made people feel drunk. Dumbledore stood up from the staff box, and the hall fell silent.
"Ladies and gentlemen, we have five minutes to go to the Quidditch Arena to watch the final of the Triwizard Tournament. Now ask the champions to follow Mr. Bagman into the field. ”
Shea Harry and the others stood up, and the entire Gryffindors applauded and cheered for him. The Weasleys and Elsa also live with their good luck.
But Hermione suddenly grabbed Shayne's hand.
Xie An lowered his head, the look in Hermione's eyes instantly pierced Xie An's heart, he couldn't help but hug Hermione, both of them were not shy, they were in front of the public, and the students began to coax.
"One last time, dear Hermione!" Shayne whispered in Hermione's ear, "One last time you worried about me so much! I'm sorry to make you worry about me, I understand how it feels, it's sad, but I have to bear to make you sad this time, I swear just this once!"
"Hmm!" Hermione whimpered, hugging Shea tightly.
"Uh......" Ron scratched his head, "Shea is going to be fine, he's amazing, isn't he?" Hermione, you don't have to make it feel like life and death. Everyone knows you like each other. ”
Harry patted Ron, and then Ron shrugged and stopped talking.
Shea nudged Hermione away because the time was up and he was leaving. Elsa on the side grabbed Hermione, and the moment Shayne turned to leave, Hermione threw herself into Elsa's arms and sobbed, "He's going to be fine, isn't it, Auntie!"
"Of course, of course!" Elsa said, wiping the water away for Hermione and letting Hermione head to the Quidditch pitch, where the match would take place.
……
The players entered the Quidditch field. The yard became unrecognizable, surrounded by a twenty-foot hedge, and an opening in the middle was the population of the great labyrinth. Beyond that was a dark and creepy passage.
Five minutes later, the stands began to fill up, and as the student crowd took their seats, the entire arena was filled with shouts of excitement and the rumble of their feet on the floor. And the sky is deep blue, deep blue. The stars are starting to come in.
Hagrid, Professor Moody, and Professor McGonagall walked into the stadium and walked towards Bagman and the players. They all wore large red stars on their hats, but Hagrid was the only one who wore them on the back of a waistcoat made of mole skin.
"We will patrol outside the maze. McGonagall said to the players, "If you get stuck, send a red light signal into the air and one of us will come to your rescue right away, understand?"
The contestants nodded.
"Then let's go at once!" Bagman said to the four inspectors.
"Send a signal as soon as possible, protect yourself, Xie An!" At this time, McGonagall walked to Xie An's side, held Xie An's shoulder, looked at Xie An with complicated eyes, and whispered.
"Don't worry!" Xie An smiled, looking unconcerned.
Bagman pointed his wand at his throat and said, "Loud!" and his voice immediately amplified and resounded throughout the audience.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the third tournament and the final of this tournament is about to begin! Let me tell you the scores of the players so far! The first two players are both 85 points, they are Mr. Sheamburn Roy and Mr. Harry Potter, they are both from Hogwarts school!"
Thunderous applause and cheers suddenly rang out, and the frightened birds of the "Forbidden Forest" fluttered their wings and flew into the night sky.
"In second place was Victor Krum of Durmstrang College, who scored 80 points. There was another round of applause. "In third place is Miss Fleur Isabel Delacour, from Beauxbatons School!"
Shea could faintly see the Weasleys, and Elsa and Hermione applauded Isabel from the stands. He waved at them, and they waved to Shea.
"Listen to my whistle, Sheaburn and Harry!" Bagman shouted, "Three, two, one!"
As soon as he blew his whistle, Shea and Harry immediately ran into the labyrinth. Then, all the contestants plunged into the dark labyrinth one after another.
Darkness and silence!
At this time, the Quidditch pitch has been transformed beyond recognition, with huge hedges blocking everything, sound, and sunlight.
Players, it's like being underwater. Xie An didn't rush forward, but began to gather his clothes, and he put away his long wizard's robe, changed into a black power suit, and then picked up his wand. Somewhere behind him, he heard a contestant chanting a spell, a fluorescent flickering spell to illuminate the way forward.
In fact, there are times when in the dark you want to light the way forward, and you become a target!
Shea didn't do that, and when it's all dark, you have to be dark too! if you don't want to be a beacon.
Of course, Xie An didn't do nothing, he released a spirit clearing spell to purify the eyes, which can make the eyes adapt to the darkness and maximize visibility.
As the minutes passed, the night grew deeper and darker, and the labyrinth became darker and darker. Soon Xie An came to the second intersection.
"Show me the way. He whispered the wand and placed it flat on the palm of his hand.
The wand spun in his hand, pausing to point to the right, in the direction of the hedge.
The road was to the north, so he had to go northwest before he could reach the center of the labyrinth.
Now all he had to do was take the left side and go to the right as soon as possible.
This labyrinth is modified with a spell, not artificial, and before the game, everyone does not know how to find a way out. It seems to be fairer than the first two games, but in fact, it's even more unfair than the first two.
The front of the trail is still empty. When Xie An walked down to the right, the road was still smooth.
Now it seems that the labyrinth seems to be trying to tempt Xie An into a false sense of security. Then he heard something moving behind him. He immediately pulled out his wand and prepared to fight, but the light from the wand fell on Krum as he ran out of the right crossing. The guy was shaking, and the sleeves of his clothes were still smoking.
The two looked at each other, and then Krum found another way to go. Disappeared without a trace for a moment.
In order to avoid the monster, Xie An also left this place immediately. Then, around the corner, he saw a monster gliding towards him. The monster was twelve feet tall, with a turban over its face, and a pair of large, rotting hands covered in scabies stretched out, rushing straight at Xie An as if he was blind.
"Fly around!" Xie An waved his wand, and the monster flew away quickly, like a deflated ball. Then Xie An continued on his way.
The players in the maze were in a tense game, except for Xie An, who didn't think so. And outside the labyrinth, the slowly approaching night also pulled down a curtain, the curtain of a good show.
Under Dumbledore's leadership, the Order of the Phoenix and other wizards, McGonagall, Snape, Lupin, Elsa, Blake and others began to act, and the audience did not feel it at all, Professor "Moody" disappeared for a while, and Headmaster Karkaroff went to their residence and did not return......
Everything is in order!
……
Left...... Rightward...... ...... to the left
Xie An was walking in the maze boringly, and twice he found himself walking into a dead end. And as you move forward, some strange fog drifts through the air, and the visibility has dropped to about five meters.
Xie An had to release the "Clearing Charm" in advance when there was an abnormal noise in front of him to find out.
"Ahh
No one answered. Xie An looked around. What's wrong with Isabel? Her scream seemed to come from somewhere ahead. He took a deep breath and walked forward.
It's strange that the whole world has turned upside down. Xie An hung from the ground, his hair facing "up", he felt his feet glued to the hay, and the grass on the ground became the ceiling now. Below him was a pitch black night sky. Xie An felt that if he lifted one foot, his whole body would fall off the earth.
He lifted his right foot so hard that it was out of the grassy "ceiling". In an instant, the whole world was restored to its original state. The sudden change caused Xie An to accidentally fall on the hard ground. Fortunately, he was not injured, and after patting the soil, Xie An stopped at an intersection, trying to find out if there was any shadow of Isabel.
He was sure that the scream he had just heard was her. So what happened to her? I wonder what happened now? But there was no red distress signal - was she out of danger, or was she so caught up in it that she couldn't reach her wand?
For the next ten minutes, the mainland encountered nothing, except for a few dead ends. The second time, Xie An turned in the wrong direction again. Only later did I find a new route and follow it.
After walking along the new road for a few minutes, Xie An heard something running with him on the road, so he suddenly stopped and remained motionless.
"What are you doing?" exclaimed Isabel, "what the hell are you going to do?" and Krum was heard to say, "Go die!"
Isabel's shouts rang out in the air.
Xie An began to run, and soon reached the place where the voice came from. He saw Isabel fall to the ground, convulsing and convulsing, while Krum stood by and stared fiercely.
Krum looked up and saw that Shea was coming, and he wanted to turn and run away.
But Shea's spell had already struck Krum in the back, and Krum stopped motionless on the road, falling face down in the grass.
"How are you?" said Sheabel, who walked over and bent over.
"It's fine. Isabel panted, "It's okay...... I can't believe it...... He actually crept after me...... I noticed it, and turned to leave, but he used his wand against me......"
"Looks like you can't move forward?" Xie An smiled and whispered.
"I can!" Isabel struggled to her feet.
"No!" Xie An shook his head, "It's time for you to rest, preferably so!"
"Bang!" Xie An said, and Isabel slowly fell to the ground, and then fell asleep. Xie An nodded in satisfaction, then sent a red signal to the sky, and turned to leave.
……
Half an hour later, in the center of the labyrinth, the trophy of the Triwizard Tournament was standing strangely in the center, and next to it, Xie An was sitting boredly wiping his wand.
"Shea!" a voice of surprise and frustration finally rang out, and Harry walked over covered in stains and embarrassment.
"You're here!" Xie An raised his head and smiled weirdly, "I've been waiting for you for a long time!"
"I've tried so hard and I'm still losing to you, but the credit still belongs to Gryffindor! you're great, Shayne!" Harry said, noticing Shea's weirdness, "You...... Something seems wrong with you? You don't need ...... No need to wait for me!"
"Alright, Mr. Harry Potter, hurry up!" Xie An laughed, "I can't wait!"
"Shea, are you saying let me get the trophy?" Harry said confusedly, "I can't!"
"Stop talking nonsense, damn boy!" Shay-An grimaced, "Hurry up and get out of here!" Shay-An said, waving his wand, Harry flew over, and then Shay-An grabbed Harry's arm, "Right now, it's going to start!"
"Shea, are you crazy, what the hell are you doing!" Harry cried as he struggled.
"Hahaha, what the hell! Of course, it's the resurrection of the Dark Lord! The great Dark Lord is about to be born again! Now I just need a little of your blood!! The blood of the enemy!" Xie An shouted frantically.
"You...... Are you doing something for Voldemort?" Harry shouted in horror.
"For the Dark Lord?" Xie An looked at Harry with mocking eyes, "No, no, no, no, I don't do things for the Dark Lord, but for myself! I, a genius like no other in the world! A genius with the ability to become an adult wizard at the age of fourteen! As long as I join forces with the Dark Lord! Then, the world will belong to us! Zhang Qiu, Petyr sister Hermione, I will have endless women, I will have endless wealth! The Dark Lord and I, we will usher in a new era!"
"Shea, you're crazy! Are you crazy? You madman!" Harry cried out in horror, "You're going to resurrect Voldemort, how can you resurrect Voldemort?"
"Wait and see!" Xie An laughed maniacally, but inadvertently released a golden signal to the sky, and then he forced Harry to take the Triwizard Tournament trophy with him!
In an instant, a force jerked at their bodies, and their legs lifted off the ground. The wind roared around them......
Harry felt his foot hit the ground hard, and he let go of the Triwizard Tournament trophy and struggled to lift his head.
"The portkey! you've set up the portkey!" Harry yelled angrily, "where did you take me? You devil, I, Ron Hermione, all of us, have always considered you friends!"
Shea stood with his back to Harry, in fact, he was trying to hold his mind when he threw a spell behind him, and Harry was imprisoned.
Now they were standing in front of a large necropolis in the darkness of the night, a large yew tree and the wheel of a chapel in the distance. A hill towered to their left.
Soon after, a dark figure approached in the darkness and approached them from among the graves. From the way the shadow walked, and the clenched arms, it was clear that the shadow was holding something. It was impossible to see who he was, he was very short, and he wore a large hooded cloak that covered his head and face. The shadow took a few steps closer—the distance between them, of course—and he saw what the man was holding in his arms look like a baby...... Or is that just a pile of clothes?
The dark shadow stopped beside a standing marble tombstone. Only six feet away from them.
At that moment, Harry let out a scream, as the scar cracked open silently. He had never felt so much pain in his life. It hurt so much that he had to cover it with his hands, which caused his wand to fall to the ground. He bent his legs and fell to his knees. He couldn't see anything, only felt a splitting headache.
"Hahaha, Dark Lord! meet again, wouldn't you be a little curious to see me!" Xie An gripped his wand and laughed.
"It's you!" a hoarse voice sounded, "It's you again!"
"No, no, no, it can't be said again!" Xie An shrugged his shoulders and shook his head, "This time, we are here to cooperate!"
"Drink!" Ugly laughter, "You don't have time to laugh, kill him!"
The cloaked dwarf waved his wand, and a green light shot at Shea.
Xie An's eyes widened, and with a rapid movement, and with a spell, he repelled the attack, "Peter, is this how you let go of your savior? Dark Lord, if I don't send Peter to you, you'll have to work harder to resurrect him! And I sent Harry, don't you think that Barty guy is doing a good job? If I hadn't killed his father Crouch in the Forbidden Forest, then the matter would have leaked." ”
"Stop!" the cold voice sounded, "Seems interesting!
"Wait!" Shayne threw another spell back, and Harry, who kept cursing, shut up. He could only look angry.
At the same time, a black figure descended.
"Dear Dark Lord, I'm back!" the figure stood beside Xie An, greasy hair glistening in the moonlight, "Mr. Xie An, is everything going well?"
"Snape!" the cold voice was slightly surprised.
"All the best!" Xie An smiled, "Now tell your old master, my chips!"
"Of course!" Snape squinted, "Dumbledore and his members of the Order of the Phoenix have gotten the Horcrux address, a leak from an elf. Mr. Shea entered the Order of the Phoenix through the Harry Potter kid, and successfully prevented the Horcrux from being taken out! Second, the 'Moody' Professor incident was learned by Dumbledore, and it was Mr. Shea himself who succeeded in making Harry compete. There are more chips to bet on!"
The cold voice gasped, it seemed that the Horcrux leak had made him very angry, and what was happening now surprised him greatly, and after a moment, "I want to know, the deal between you!"
"Private deal!" Xie An shrugged, "If you want to know, it's okay, fifty boys and girls are alive, and one person is resurrected!"
"Give me a reason why you want to work with me!" the cold voice continued.
"Hahaha!" Xie An laughed, "One great genius, cooperate with another great genius! And then, with endless women, with supreme power! And you, the Dark Lord, after the first few encounters, it is clear that you are another genius besides me!"
"Drink, drink......" the ugly voice laughed.
"Dark Lord, it's time for resurrection!" Xie An said with a smile, "After that, we will put the men in order, kill Dumbledore, and take control of the Ministry of Magic." And I, I need that school, some girls there, it's mine!"
"Deal!" the cold voice said flatly.
"Dear Dark Lord, do you really want to do this?" said Peter, who had been speechless, timidly.
"You shouldn't question me. The cold voice said, "From this day forward, you must listen to Mr. Roy's orders in addition to me!"
"Yes, my master!" said Peter, timidly.
"Hehe!" Xie An turned to Harry mockingly, "Our savior, a silly boy, come over to me!"
When he finished speaking, Xie Anzhong breathed a sigh of relief, step by step, concealing Harry, the exchange of words and strength, coupled with Snape's proof and the deterrence of his strength, Voldemort finally had no way out and plunged into the plan!
Then, Harry was bound by the spell released by Shea, and he couldn't speak, but his face turned red with anger, and he looked like he was going to eat Shea.
Harry was tied to a tombstone. Once Peter made sure the tie was strong, he took something black from his cloak and shoved it into Harry's mouth. Then, without saying a word, he turned around and ran away.
However, Peter did not take the contents of his arms with him, and the pile of clothes was at the foot of the tombstone. The pile seemed to be vibrating with irritation. Harry looked at it, and his wound hurt again...... It dawned on him that he didn't want to see the contents of the pile...... He didn't want to see the bag opened. He could only look at Xie An angrily, helplessly, and in horror.
Suddenly, a giant snake appeared and swam among the grass. Swam around the tombstone that tied Harry to it. Peter's rapid gasps rang out again. It sounded like he was pushing something heavy across the grass. In a moment he appeared.
He was pushing a large stone pot toward the tombstone, which seemed to be filled with water, large enough to fit a grown man.
The contents of the colored garment on the grass stirred even more violently, as if it were about to struggle out, and now Peter himself was busy with a wand at the bottom of the steaming pot. Suddenly, crackling flames erupted from the bottom of the pot. The serpent slipped away and disappeared into the darkness.
Snape and Sheain looked at each other, then at the cauldron.
The liquid in the big pot seems to heat up easily. Not only bubbles bubbled up on the surface of the liquid, but sparks also entered and exited, as if they were on fire. The action beneath that cloak became more intense.
The entire surface of the pot of water was covered with sparks, and it looked as if it had been studded with diamonds. "Ready, master. ”
"Start ...... now"
The grim voice rang out. Peter pulled open the wrap of clothing on the grass, revealing what's inside. Harry let out a shout—but he did a word.
Peter took out a stone, and then he revealed something ugly, vile, stupid, but even worse, and a hundred times worse. It had the form of a human child bent on its knees.
It has no hair and scales on its surface. Its back is bare, black-red. Its arms and legs were thin and fragile, and its face—no other than a child's—was flat, snake-headed, and had a pair of flickering red eyes.
Shayne frowned, and turned away from Snape, not looking at the thing.
The little thing looked so helpless that it lifted its tiny arms around Peter's neck. Peter picked it up. Just then, its hood fell to the back.
Then Peter put the little thing in the pot. There was a hissing sound in the distance, and then the thing disappeared from the water. The soft sound of its small body hitting the bottom of the pot.
Peter's mouth was full of words. His voice trembled. He looked frightened by the creature beyond his intelligence. He raised his wand, closed his eyes, and shouted into the night sky, "O father's bones, infinitely giving, give your son a chance to be born again!"
The graveyard at Harry's feet cracked. Horrified, Harry saw a beautiful puff of dust rise into the air under Peter's spell and gently fall into the pot. The diamond-like surface of the water cracked. Sizzle. Sparks splash. The surface of the water turned a bright, poisonous deep blue.
Now Peter began to whimper under his heart, and from inside his garment, he drew a long, narrow, bright silver sword. His voice turned to a stiff sob. "Servant muscles, give it willingly, give your master a chance to be born again!"
He stretched out his right hand—the one that was missing a finger. He gripped the silver sword tightly in his left hand and swung it forward. There was a splash, and a severed hand fell into the pot. The pot of water had turned fiery red.
Peter gasped for air and groaned in pain. It wasn't until Harry felt Peter's painful breath blow into his face that he realized Peter was standing right in front of him.
"The blood of the enemy...... Conquered by force...... You will ...... Resurrect your opponent ......"
There's nothing Harry can do about it, he's tied too tightly...... He glanced down, desperately wrangling through the rope, and he saw the dagger dangling in Peter's hand. Then he felt the tip of the sword pierce into the crook of his right arm. Blood was pouring from his tattered clothes. Still wheezing in pain, Peter pulled out a small glass vial from his pocket and reached for Harry's wound. A large drop of blood went into the bottle.
He hobbled back to the cauldron with Harry's blood. Pour the blood into it. The liquid kept changing, and finally turned an empty white. Peter fell to his knees by the pan in exhaustion, as if his work was done. Then he fell to the side and lay on the grass, gasping and whimpering, clutching the bleeding spot on his arm.
The steamer slowly boiled, and it was sparkling again. Nothing else has changed......
Then, all of a sudden, the sparks in the pot went out. In its place was a huge puff of white smoke.
Slowly, the black silhouette of a person, tall and thin, slowly rose from the inside of the steamer.
Xie An squinted his eyes, his heart was beating rapidly, as if he was dubbing this scene again, but unfortunately this dubbing was not worthy at all.
"Dress me!" a high, cold voice rang out from behind the fog. Peter was still whimpering and moaning, but he shook his wound and crawled to pick up the pile of black clothes on the grass. Then he staggered to his feet, lifted his toes, and put one hand on his master's head.
The tall, thin man walked out of the steamer, with a face paler than a skull, large black-red eyes, a nose as flat as a snake's nose, and many cracks in his nostrils......
Voldemort is resurrected!
For a moment, everyone at the scene held their breath and didn't understand. And Voldemort, admiring his body like a narcissist, gently ** himself.
"Congratulations, Dark Lord, you're back. Xie An took a deep breath and smiled, "I'm looking forward to the days ahead!"
"Yes, yes!" Voldemort muttered, and then his long, narrow eyes stared at Shea like a poisonous snake, "Of course it's worth looking forward to." Now, Mr. Roy, I want to know, what Horcruxes do they know about?"
"Three!" said Xie Ji with a nonchalant smile, "Rowena Ravenclaw's crown, Salazar Slytherin's little gold box, and Helga Hufflepuff's gold cup." If you have time, go for a run yourself!"
"Yes!" Voldemort smiled with satisfaction, "You're a good collaborator!"
"Of course!" Shayne smiled a little strangely, then glanced at Snape. In the next second, Peter, who was groaning in pain and excited, was hit by a green light and fell to the ground.
"What are you doing?" Voldemort's face changed suddenly.
"Don't be nervous, Dark Lord!" Xie An smiled nonchalantly, at least it seemed, "A guy who has seen you before your resurrection is of little use other than to help you resurrect." Moreover, he knows the secret of our cooperation!"
"Secret?" Voldemort said thoughtfully, then grinning with ugly teeth, "Nice way to work together!"
"Well, Dark Lord, now, we have another thing to do. Then go and join your servants. All the follow-up matters, we will discuss them separately!"
"You mean......" Voldemort's gaze slowly shifted to Harry Potter!
"Kill him, the cooperation officially begins!" Xie An said coldly, "No need to wait any longer!"
"Arvada suhs!" a loud roar as Voldemort raised his wand to Harry, and in his cruel smile, the green light hit Harry's forehead. Then, Harry's head shrugged down.
At this moment, Xie An's head was buzzing, if the resurrection stone was useless! If so, he killed his best friend with his own hands!
However, now I have one last thing to do.
"Very good!" Xie An said with a strange expression, "Give me the corpse." Although the triwizard tournament was very intense, the bodies of the players should still be called back. ”
"That's right!" Voldemort stared at Shean with a frown.
Shea scrambled like a pinprick, steady, and then helped Harry off the tombstone, quietly shoving the Rebirth Stone into Harry's mouth.
"Goodbye, Dark Lord!" Xie An smiled palely, "next time, I'll be in control of Hogwarts, and you'll need to be in charge of the Ministry of Magic!"
"Yes!" Voldemort smiled wryly.
Xie An's face changed suddenly, now Voldemort has no threat, he has been successfully resurrected, he no longer needs himself, he does not allow anyone to share his throne, especially a person who threatens him in the future.
"Professors, get out of here!" shouted Shea, and at the same time the wand shot several spells, but the next moment, three unavoidable green lights rushed towards Shea, and the other three had already attacked Snape!
In an instant, six deadly spells, this is the strength of Voldemort, who has just been resurrected!
Xie An wanted to cast a protective spell for himself when he couldn't avoid it, and then put all the Horcruxes in the storage bracelet in his pocket in an instant. Waiting for trial!
However, at the same time, a familiar tall but old body appeared in front of him, and the same six rays of light hit Xie An before Voldemort's fatal spell, and the light enveloped Xie An, and then, the fatal spell finally hit Xie An.
His eyelids fell heavily, and in his last consciousness, Xie An said with difficulty, "Horcrux...... Pocket...... Rebirth Stone ...... Harry's mouth, Nagini in the house...... Hermione...... Elsa ......"
"Bang!" With a loud sound, some turf was splashed, and Xie An fell!
