Silver calmly put away his wand, his face unchanged, as if he had just done something insignificant—he had been rehearsing in his dorm room for a week.

He waved to the enthusiastic crowd, which earned him more applause.

"I have to say, you're better suited to be an actor, Jack. A lazy female voice rang in Silver's head. "I think you're much more talented in acting than in magic. ”

"I've stressed it many times, you can speak softly, don't just invade my brain!"

"The Headmaster of Hogwarts is watching you, you don't want to expose my deposits. The female voice paused, "Besides, this little trick doesn't last long, if you don't hurry, then before you come back, the lake will return to its original state, and you don't want to swim back in this cold lake." ”

Silver didn't quarrel with Ravenclaw anymore, this special magic of "Moses dividing the seas" was originally a special ancient magic used to search for underwater objects. This magic was magnified at the hands of the Jewish prophet Moses, who parted the Red Sea, opened a way for the Jews to escape, and flooded the Egyptian wizard legions as the Egyptians pursued them to the middle of the sea.

Although this ancient magic can be called amazingly powerful, its lengthy spells and harsh application conditions were disliked by later generations of wizards, and after the advent of modern magic, the ancient magic of "Moses Dividing the Sea" was forgotten by wizards along with other ancient magic. Silver learned this magic from Ravenclaw so that he could complete the race with dignity and not have to swim in the icy waters of the lake like other warriors.

Although the Black Lagoon at Hogwarts is nowhere near the Red Sea, Silver's magic is not comparable to that of the Jewish prophet Moses thousands of years ago. According to Ravenclaw's estimates, Silver had only a quarter of an hour to complete the round trip.

Although the lake is separated, the sediment and silt at the bottom of the lake are not suitable for people to run on - not to mention that the black lake is not small.

Silver took out another pile of paper birds with inscriptions from his bosom and threw them forward, and the animate paper birds flew crookedly towards the bottom of the lake.

"It seems that Silver is going to do it again, using the paper bird positioning and apparition to the bottom of the lake!" Bagman explained, "It's a very clever idea, the Black Lagoon at Hogwarts is not a small pond, even if you use magic to separate the water, you will have to fight the sand and silt that has been deposited for an unknown number of years!

"Look, Silver is moving, he's starting to phantom, let's see what he's going to do next!"

Silver stood on a huge rock painted with many merfolk in their spears in their hands, chasing what looked like giant squid.

"The mural of the mermaid. Silver looked at the mermaid's artwork with interest. "It looks like it's been around for tens of thousands of years. ”

"That's nature. Probably thinking that the distance was safe enough, Ravenclaw spoke directly, "The merfolk used to have quite a civilization. These merfolk of Hogwarts are the remnants of the Atlantic Kingdom. Although their civilization is long gone, they are still intelligent creatures and have not fallen into obscurity. ”

"But I'm not here today, I have to find what I lost and finish this game. Silver looked around, and there were many rough stone dwellings, speckled with algae. Silver saw some faces in the dark windows, apparently merfolk who lived at the bottom of the lake.

The skin of the mermaid is iron-gray, and the dark green head is long and unkempt. Their eyes are yellow, their mutilated teeth are yellow, and they wear pebbles strung with thick ropes around their necks. They seemed to know that Silver was the one who had parted the lake, and they smiled maliciously at him. One or two of them ran out of the cave to get a better look, spear in hand, and slammed the lake with their thick and powerful silver tails, making a threatening gesture towards Silver.

Silver ignored the merfolk as he changed into a pair of light galoshes and walked on. There are more and more stone dwellings, and some of them have gardens around them. He saw a poor little Grime Lodi tethered to a door. Merfolk emerged from all directions, looking at him curiously, pointing at him, and whispering with their hands over their mouths.

Silver continued along the path he had opened, and found the square of the merfolk village, surrounded by houses with a large group of merfolk floating in front of them. In the middle, some merfolk are singing in unison, calling the warriors to pass. Behind them stood a crude statue: a mermaid carved out of boulders. On the tail of the mermaid statue, four people are firmly tied.

Ron was tethered between Hermione and Karkaroff. There was also a little girl up to eight years old, whose misty silver made Silver believe that she was Fleur Delacour's sister. All four of them looked like they were sleeping deeply, their heads slung limply over their shoulders, and a string of thin blisters kept popping out of their mouths.

"Hell, it looks like Kakaroff is the one Krum has to rescue. Silver had a look on his face. Silver put his hand into the water, which was not as cold as he thought.

"It seems that I still can't hide from swimming for a while. Silver put a bubble head charm on himself and plunged headlong into the lake in front of him.

Silver struggled to swim towards the hostage. His swimming skills are not high, and it can even be said that he is clumsy, but fortunately he is not too far from the hostage's place, and after some struggle, he finally reaches his destination. But the time had come for "Moses to divide the sea", and the lake had been restored to its original state. Silver let out a sigh and resigned himself to reluctantly reluctance to save Hermione. The ropes that the merfolk tied to the statues were made of water and weed, thick and slippery, and very strong. Even with a knife, you may not be able to cut it open.

"So—no shadow!" Silver pointed his wand at the straw rope that bound Hermione, and Silver's control of the magic was so good that it cut through the straw rope that bound Hermione without hurting her at all.

Hermione floated deliriously a few inches above the bottom of the lake, drifting to and fro with the waves.

Silver grabbed Hermione and swam towards the lake.
