Chapter 299, the third game

When encountering such peach blossom luck, if nothing else, just based on Fleur's bewitching appearance, Bruce said that he didn't believe it. In addition www.biquge.info to the heartbeat, there is also "guilt", the guilt of cheating.

From beginning to end, Bruce considered himself a single person, a single person to his friends, to everything, to Hermione. Otherwise, when Fleur first came to the school, all the boys flocked to him, but he seemed very calm.

So in the end, Bruce gave a definition of this "kiss" in his heart, he is still single, and he is still loyal, but the "enemy's" raid ability is too strong, and he can't guard against it.

But Bruce didn't know that many of the men and women who glowed during the first spring were almost all defined by themselves.

The next day, the final match of the Triwizard Tournament came as scheduled.

The last match of the Triwizard Tournament, which has been interrupted for centuries, can even rival the impact of the Quidditch World Cup, especially since this Triwizard has five players for the first time, not only before but also after all. So many wizards rushed to watch the game, and the final battle of the Final Three turned into a feast.

While the crowd was excited, several referees were not. Barty Crouch's death has caused a stir, and Dumbledore is worried about another Death Eater "attack".

For this reason, Dumbledore had to announce that due to the venue, except for the students and parents, the rest of the wizards could only watch the "live broadcast" through the magic circle on the periphery. Although Fudge kept saying that he would not suspend the triwizard before, he still added more personnel in the last game, and the arena was surrounded by patrolling Aurors. There were also "plainclothes Aurors" in the crowd.

Then there's the playing field, where the final battle takes place in a huge labyrinth of bushes. The Final Three is a test of magic, courage, and wisdom for the players, so the final match is naturally where the "essence of difficulty" is gathered.

Originally, in order to increase the difficulty, the playing field was a magical space composed of powerful wizards such as Dumbledore. However, such a venue will undoubtedly give loopholes to people with ulterior motives. A major event of the year was attacked, and a powerful minister was killed, and the current Ministry of Magic could not withstand another blow.

So Minister Fudge, who was "brave and strong", decided to change the site to a safe labyrinth of bushes. Dumbledore did not object, but unanimously agreed to the proposal. However, in order to increase the difficulty, they still set up a lot of magic traps in the maze, and all the professors of Hogwarts were dispatched around the maze to prevent accidents.

Unbeknownst to the students, they were sitting in the stands cheering on their respective academy players. Hogwarts has a choir and band, the Durmstrang boys use magic to conjure a fiery dragon in the air to cheer for Krum, and the beauties of Beauxbatons provoke a dance that makes the opposite sex drool and cause cheers.

Compared with the fierce anger outside, the inside of the players' lounge was much quieter, although the hearts of the five people were also "excited". When no one wants to go to the game with that mentality.

Cedric sat there with his eyes closed to be as quiet as he could, but his trembling body showed his mood at the moment. Fleur walked back and forth, muttering something in her mouth. Krum kept sitting and doing push-ups, trying to comfort himself with exercise. Compared to these three, Bruce and Harry have a lot more to spare.

The two of them just stood there talking and talking.

"Bruce, the last shudder. It's time for your secret to be solved, right? Harry said.

Bruce nodded, pulling Harry into the corner and handing him a golden charm.

"Charms?!" Harry said in surprise.

"Put it away! This is our magic weapon! Bruce said.

When Harry heard this, he immediately put his clothes close to his arms and asked, "What is this?" ”

"Sacrifice Curse!" Bruce said.

"Sacrifice curse? What kind of spell is this? Harry said in surprise.

Bruce explained, "It's a very magical spell in Shushan. The Death Spell means you have one more life! ”

"A life? Is this the same one you gave to Mr. Weasley? Harry said.

Bruce said, "Don't say that, it's an insult to say that!" You know? Even in the entire wizarding world, all the magic weapons combined are not as magical as it! You don't need to use the Life Sacrifice Spell, as long as you wear it on your body, you will be resurrected even if you are blown to slag! ”

"What?" Harry shouted in surprise and hurriedly covered his mouth, seeing that the three of them were not paying attention, he cautiously said, "What do you mean?" Resurrection from the dead? ”

Bruce nodded and said, "That's right, but that's not the magic of it, when the Sacrifice Spell is activated, the wearer will still be killed, but it will not be resurrected immediately, and it will only be resurrected when the spell is activated again, so it is not only a means of preserving life, but also a method of attack!" ”

"But...... How to urge when you die? Harry asked curiously.

Bruce said, "You'll know when you use it!" ”

"Huh!" Harry smiled bitterly and said, "Forget it, I'd rather not need it." Bruce, why don't you prepare some more of this. Otherwise, even if we face Voldemort directly, we don't have to be afraid. ”

Bruce smiled bitterly: "I can get two of them, it's already a lot of waste, you still want more, be content!" ”

In fact, if Bruce had told Harry how to make the Death Charm, he would have understood the preciousness of the charm.

Sacrifice the mantra, sacrifice the life for righteousness! It not only refers to the resurrection of the dead, but also explains how it is made, and the most important thing in making a life sacrifice spell is lifespan! Ten years of life in exchange for a resurrection, this is the price of the life sacrifice curse.

Bruce had seen this kind of magical spell in the "library" of Shushan before, because it would cost ten years of life, which was a huge price even for an outsider like Daochang Qingsong. Therefore, the sacrificial spell is very rare, after all, if it is not forced into a desperate situation, no one will want to do it.

Bruce learned from the Dustless Dao Leader that there were ten sacrificial life spells left by their predecessors in Shu Mountain. At that time, Bruce was very eager to get such a life talisman, but when he thought that this was the life of his ancestors, he didn't open his mouth.

But this time it was different, and their lives were in danger. Bruce had to cheekily write to ask for help. For this reason, Bruce wrote to the Wuwei Daoist Elder about his encounter and related matters, and of course, he also paid for a copy of the spell notes that Bruce had excerpted from. Among them are many profound and magical spells, including some of his own thoughts on Nirvana.

There are favors and "gifts", and the dustless Taoist chief did not refuse to give two sacrificial spells. That is, the two on Bruce and Harry.

Just as Harry was about to inquire about the Sacrifice Charm, a group of people walked in. He is the principal of three schools, Professor McGonagall. Diggory's father, Mr. Cedric, as well as Minister of Magic Fudge and Rita Skeeter of the Daily Prophet.

"Come here, boys, all over here. Secretary Fudge has something to say to you. Dumbledore said.

The five walked over, and Cornelius Fudge smiled and said, "Kids, although I didn't get to be there to congratulate you in person for the first two games. But I've heard more than once about your performance, and I want to congratulate you. Whichever of you wins the eventual victory, you will be the winner of this race for each of you. ”

"Bang Bang!"

Although the leader's speech is a formal official language, everyone has to express it. At this time, Rita Skeeter said respectfully: "Mr. Minister, will the security of this match be fully guaranteed?" ”

Although Rita Skeeter is usually crazy and has no friends, she can't be crazy in front of the Minister of Magic.

Fudge confidently said: "I can guarantee that the danger outside of the game has been completely eliminated by us. I personally ordered that the whole game must not be exploited by anyone with bad intentions. ”

Harry clung to Bruce's ear and whispered, "I'm more worried to hear him say that." ”

Bruce laughed, "It's good to know, we're on our own." ”

"Understood!" Harry said.

"That's it! Everyone, the competition is about to begin, and the players are ready to enter! Professor McGonagall reminded.

Traditionally, the final match will be played by the players and their respective headmasters, except that there are three players at Hogwarts, so Cedric is accompanied by his own father, Harry is accompanied by Dumbledore, and Bruce is accompanied by Professor McGonagall.

Outside, the music sounded, and Mr. Cedric, who was very excited, took off his hat and greeted everyone first, and then welcomed his son like a guest. Mr. Cedric is proud of his son. However, Diggory was shy about his father's excitement, and then Bruce and the four of them also appeared, and the cheers of the audience reached their peak.

In front of them were tall bush walls with five entrances, and beyond that, there were stands, and Bruce noticed that Ron's parents, the Weasleys, were also in the stands, waving at them. However, Ron and Hermione beside them were not happy, and the two of them were very nervous now.

Dumbledore walked to the middle podium to signal for silence, but the cheers continued one after another, and finally he had to shout with a loudspeaker spell, "Silence! ”

The stands fell silent as Dumbledore continued: "Today, it's the third and final battle of the Triwizard Tournament, and if you finish the game and win the Triwizard Cup, you can become the champion of the Triwizard Tournament. Professor Moody had already dropped the trophy into the depths of the maze this morning, and no one but him knew where the trophy had been placed! The final order of entry is determined by the points from the first two races......"

The Triwizard Tournament uses a point system because there is no possibility of elimination of the contract of the Goblet of Fire. The first race was completed in 10 points, and the second battle of the Black Lagoon was awarded in order of the time taken by the players who completed the race.

In the first game, except for Krum's golden egg damage, the other four scored 10 points, and in the second game, Fleur retired without points, Krum was the first to finish the game with 10 points, Cedric was second with 8 points, Harry was 6 points, and Bruce was rewarded with 8 points for his bravery.

So now the five-man ranking is Bruce and Cedric tied for first, Harry second, Krum third, and Fleur fourth. Such a ranking also determines the order in which the players choose the entrance to enter the maze.

Dumbledore said: "Cedric and Bruce are tied for first ......"

β€œyes!”

As soon as Dumbledore said this, the Hogwarts students immediately stood up and cheered.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ So the two of them will be the first to enter the labyrinth, followed by Harry, Krum, and Fleur! ”
