Chapter 693: Into the Lake

"Aven, Hermione, you're here!" Ron said smugly as he sat down and took himself a slice of bread, "I was just surrounded by Lavender and her friends who wanted to know how I was going to breathe underwater. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoNo way, girls are like this, I have to make them understand that it's not an easy thing......"

"We don't care about you and Lavender. Hermione said dissatisfied, looking at Ron angrily, "You're too late, the warriors will be assembled in front of the castle before eight o'clock, waiting for instructions." ”

"I know, it's still too late, I'm counting the time!" Ron said nonchalantly, shoving the food into his mouth, "By the way, do you know where Harry is, he didn't come back last night, is Sirius looking for ......him?"

"Of course he's in the lake. Hermione said impatiently.

"Lakes?!" Ron asked, startled, "Why did Harry go there?"

"Don't you understand, Game 2 requires the Warriors to go down the lake to find their most important person, and your most important person is Harry!" Hermione said, unhappy with Ron's hindsight, "He's already waiting for you there!"

"Oh my God, I'm going to go down the lake to save Harry?!" Ron said in a panic, suddenly becoming nervous, "No one told me this, I heard the merfolk singing in the golden egg, and I thought I was going to find something!"

Thinking of this, Ron couldn't help but start to worry, and Harry was waiting to save him at the bottom of the big lake.

He touched the gill sac grass in his pocket, what if he couldn't find Harry in an hour?!

The thought of the lyrics that he would lose him forever made Ron panic, not as relaxed as he had just been.

"How can they do that, Harry doesn't have gill sacs, how can he breathe under the lake?!" Ron said uneasily, "I can't find him in an hour, Avan, what should I do?"

"I don't know!" said Gabrielle, holding her cup and drinking her milk.

If she knew, she wouldn't sit here and worry!

Hearing her answer, Ron was stunned, as if he didn't expect Evan to answer like this......

"You just do what you normally do, and you're fine!" Hermione said quickly, "Eat the gill sac grass by the lake, find Harry in the lake, and bring Harry back, it's as simple as that." ”

Knowing the truth of everything, she knew that Ron couldn't succeed at all, as long as she protected herself.

"Alright, let's go!"

Ron swallowed the food in his mouth and followed Hermione and Gabrielle out of the castle.

They stepped out of the two oak gates and onto the cold sunny field outside.

Walking down the lawn to the lake, you can see the seats that surrounded the dragon farm last November, and now they are lined up on the other side of the lake, and many people are already sitting on them, reflecting in the lake below.

They went around the huge lake and went there.

The referees' tables were in front of the audience, near the edge of the lake, covered with golden tablecloths, where Dumbledore, Karkaroff, Madame Maxime, Fudge and Ludo Bagman were already seated.

The other teachers and Aurors stood at the referee's table, who would be responsible for maintaining order during the match.

Ron waved Lavender from the audience and walked over to the referee's table.

Not long ago, he had received a letter from Percy saying that he would be replacing Mr. Crouch as a referee.

Ron thinks it's powerful to himself, and no matter how bad he is, Percy can't give him a low score.

But now, because of the time of Mr. Crouch's disappearance, Percy is under investigation.

Sirius told them that the Order did not want to publicize Mr. Crouch's disappearance, but they pulled Percy and interrogated him about the instructions sent by Mr. Crouch, as if they thought they might not have been written by Crouch.

Percy was under a lot of pressure, and his fledgling career was going wrong, which was worse than killing him.

In this case, he naturally can't go to Hogwarts to be a referee!

"You're here, Ron!" Ludo Bagman greeted him with a smile on his face, taking the place of one of the Aurors, leading Ron to the place where the warriors were assembled, whispering, "How's it going, do you know what you're going to do?"

"Just knew!" Ron replied, "I can't believe it......"

"yes, I can't believe it!" said Bagman, lowering his voice again, "Listen, I just learned the location of the merfolk village from Alasto, and he followed him down there yesterday, just to the northwest, don't swim anywhere else." ”

"Thank you!" Ron said in surprise, looking at Ludo Bagman.

He had long known where the merfolk village was, but he didn't expect Bagman to help him at this time.

"No thanks, you know, I want to help you win the game!" Bagman said, regaining his normal voice, "Alright, you go over, the other warriors are waiting there!"

By the time Ron had passed, Cedric, Krum, and Fleur had lined up on the shore, ten feet apart each.

Ron was last in line, right next to Krum.

Krum, dressed in his swimming trunks, had already taken out his wand and was ready.

As a world-class pursuer, Krum's physique is really strong, and he was preparing for it with nearly an hour before the start of the game, but Ron hesitated for a moment, but decided to get dressed......

After a while, Professor Moody walked around, examined each of the warriors, and instructed them to take precautions.

Then there were Sirius and the Aurors, and Ron didn't understand why he had to check so many times.

Just when he was a little impatient, he saw Bagman stand up from the referee's table, point his wand to his throat, as he did in the World Cup, and say, "Loud!"

So his voice roared like thunder, sweeping across the dark lake to the packed stands opposite.

"Listen, our warriors are in place. As soon as I whistled, the second project began. They had a full hour to reclaim what had been snatched from their hands. I count to three, one, two, three!"

Shrill whistles echoed through the cold, still air, and cheers and applause erupted in the stands.

Ron didn't wait to see what the other warriors were doing, he did what he had practiced before, he took the handful of gill sac grass from his pocket, stuffed it into his mouth, and waded into the lake. It was so cold, he felt the skin of his legs hurt hotly, like it was on fire.

The further he went, the deeper the lake became, and his soaked robe fell heavily.
