027 Second Task

Lawrence recognized the direction and paddled towards the lake as much as he could, the light on his body gradually fell off, dragging a shining halo in the black lake, Lawrence didn't care, because he had already taken Luna and returned to the lake smoothly, Bagman's rumbling sound sounded, and there were bursts of screams and cheers from the audience, Lawrence took a deep breath of cold air, which cleared his aching head a little,

Hey, Lawrence. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Luna woke up, and she said in the same tone as if they met at breakfast in a restaurant, not in the cold, damp black lake,

Well, Luna, do me a favor, said Lawrence, as he pulled Luna and pointed to the robe that was still firmly in place on the surface of the lake, and stepped on my hand—yes, stand up, and that's it.

Wow - Luna staggered on Lawrence's robes, thinking it was funny, as if to make sure they were still on the lake, she dipped her feet in the wet and cold water, shrank back, looked down at Lawrence who was still in the water, and asked, where are you standing? - Lawrence?

When I—Lawrence had a strange expression, and before he could say anything more, he was pulled into the lake, leaving a somewhat stunned Luna,

Lawrence held his breath, looked down at his left foot that was curled by tentacles, followed the tentacles, and looked at the giant squid that pulled him into the lake, without the slightest panic,

He took advantage of the slight pause of the giant squid, curled his body, let his hand close to his left foot, the giant squid found that something was wrong, and was about to let go of him, Lawrence grabbed its tentacles with his left hand, and his right hand fell fiercely, cutting off the tentacles that were rolling himself, blue blood gushed out of the wounds of the tentacles, floating in the lake, the giant squid flew away from Lawrence's sight, he felt that the giant squid had completely moved away from him, Lawrence struggled to swim towards the lake,

Burst. Lawrence resurfaced on the water, Luna was sitting on Lawrence's robe, kicking the water a little boringly, she saw Lawrence emerge from the water, and quickly retracted her feet to prevent the water from splashing Lawrence,

Let's go. Lawrence said this, and his whole body slowly floated onto the surface of the lake, and the water droplets on his body naturally slipped into the lake, until he stepped on the surface of the lake.

Luna looked at Lawrence in amazement, Lawrence smiled and walked towards the shore, his robe was like skating on ice, carrying Luna to slide on the lake, Lawrence took Luna's hand and helped her keep her balance,

How did you do that, Luna asked curiously, I mean walking on the water?

It was just a matter of controlling the direction of the water, Lawrence explained with some difficulty, I let a stream of water push me under my feet so that I wouldn't fall into the water, and at the bottom of the water I relied on this to speed up my swimming, otherwise I might not have been able to swim to the mermaid for an hour.

You cut it off? Luna looked curiously at Lawrence's left foot, which was still covered with the tentacles of a giant squid.

Uh, yes, I don't have a good way to get rid of it without hurting it. Lawrence replied, although he didn't have a drop of water on his body, but his lips were already a little white,

Yours...... Luna watched Lawrence say something when she was interrupted by Madam Pomfrey rushing from the shore,

Come here, Madam Pomfrey couldn't help but say, two thick blankets covered the two of them like this,

Well done, Lawrence, Dumbledore's voice was hazy because of the blanket, Lawrence struggled to get his head out of the blanket, Dumbledore smiled and helped him pull the blanket up, Luna on the side had been forced by Madam Pomfrey to pour a whole hot potion into it,

I think you'd better drink this, Dumbledore raised the smoking potion in his hand, or Madam Pomfrey will come to me and find that you haven't drunk it yet.

Thank you, Professor, Lawrence said, as he tried to swallow the choking potion, and he felt his whole being warm, and his ears must be smoking,

You seem to be in trouble you didn't expect? Dumbledore raised an eyebrow and looked at the tentacle on Lawrence's left ankle,

Unexpected? Lawrence was puzzled, he met Dumbledore's blue eyes,

Let's not mention this, Dumbledore's eyes flashed, he took out a small bottle of transparent potion from his robes, stuffed it into Lawrence, and drank it, he can relieve your current headache.

Professor—How do you know? Lawrence was stunned for a moment and asked,

Actually, the matter is quite obvious, Dumbledore lowered his voice and said, "When I come to my office after dinner, the secret word for customs clearance is apple pie."

Have you already drunk it? Very good. Madam Pomfrey pushed Dumbledore to the side, and Dumbledore winked at Lawrence helplessly and stepped aside,

The tentacles of a giant squid? Madam Pomfrey didn't think so, and then she tapped her wand, and the tentacles seemed to be dry, and Madam Pomfrey easily removed the tentacles, and then began to clean all kinds of abrasions on Lawrence's body,

It's okay not to provoke them—Madam Pomfrey said dissatisfied, but at this moment, Bagman's rumbling voice sounded again, and a second warrior who had completed the task appeared, Madam Pomfrey looked at Lawrence, who was fine, and turned to rush towards Krum, who was climbing ashore, Karkaroff shouted triumphantly, Lawrence took the opportunity to open the clear potion, and drank it with his head up, it tasted a bit like mint, but it did relieve his headache,

Get out of the way—Madam Pomfrey roared, she waved her wand, and Karkaroff, who was in the middle of the way, jumped away as if he had been electrocuted, cursing angrily, but finding that no one was paying attention to him, and that he could walk back to the jury in hatred,

Not long after, Hermione and Krum were brought to Lawrence and Luna's side, both of whom had completed their treatment, and Hermione greeted Lawrence and Luna with a happy smile.

Did you see Harry? Hermione asked Lawrence,

Yes, Lawrence replied, and then he looked at Krum, Harry should be the second warrior to find the hostage?

Well. Krum replied simply, "When I arrived, he had already arrived."

At this time, the audience erupted in louder cheers, the last two warriors successfully rescued their hostages, Dumbledore and Bagman pulled Harry ashore together, Percy grabbed Ron and dragged him back to shore, Lady Maxim held Sister Delacul tightly in one hand,

Harry – I knew you could do it, Hermione shouted happily, you found a way on your own.

Well, this, Harry glanced at Lawrence, who was giving him a thumbs up, and then he noticed Karkaroff looking at him with disgruntled eyes, and he deliberately raised his voice and said, Well, yes, you're right.

There's a water beetle in your hair, Hermione-Krum said, Hermione impatiently waved the water beetle away, and asked, Listen to Lawrence, you're one of the two warriors who found the hostages, why did it take you so long to get ashore?

I-Harry's face stiffened, he didn't know how to explain it, he took the hints of the mission and the mermaid's song seriously,

He wants to rescue Gabrielle. Fleur walked up to them, her face and arms covered in scars, and a bloody wound on her calf, but she insisted that Madam Pomfrey take care of her sister first.

Hey? Hermione was stunned, and Krum's face was a little gloomy, but she still nodded,

You saved her, Fleur said, and she bent down and kissed Harry on the cheek, even though she wasn't your hostage.

Well, Harry felt that even without Madam Pomfrey's potion, his ears would definitely be able to emit smoke, and Fleur kissed Ron on the cheek again, thanking her for helping her sister too,

Hmph - Hermione looked like she was about to explode, but at this point, Ludo. Bagman rumbled again, startling everyone, and the spectators in the stands were also silent in an instant, everyone was waiting to hear the rating of this mission,

Ladies and gentlemen, we have come to the conclusion that the leader of the merfolk has told us what has happened at the bottom of the pot, and that we will judge the score of each warrior on a perfect score of fifty

First of all, Fleur. Miss Delacour, who used the Bubble Head Charm to show excellent skill, did not give up her mission when she was attacked by the giant squid, but lured the giant squid to Grindello's lair, showing excellent tactics, but because it took too much time, she was the last warrior to arrive at the mermaid settlement to rescue the hostages, so we decided to give her thirty-five points.

Fleur shook her head dejectedly, and said nothing, her silver hair, which would have exuded a soft glow, was a little dull, and Gabrielle comforted her sister on the side,

Lawrence. Mr. Rovander, who once again showed amazing magical skills, calmly defeated his opponent in unfavorable situations when attacked by giant squid twice, and he was also the first warrior to reach the mermaid settlement and rescue the hostages, and also completed the task fifteen minutes earlier than the allotted time, and there was no doubt that there was a burst of cheers from the stands. Bagman deliberately paused and glanced at Karkaroff before continuing, there is no doubt that no one can excuse him from deducting points, and we decided to give him fifty points.

Bumper bumper bumper - in the distant stands, several fireworks were shot out, forming an angry Karkaroff face in the sky, Lawrence knew at a glance that this would-be twin had done a good deed, the spectators in the stands burst into laughter, and the Hogwarts students still remembered how eccentric Karkaroff's rating was in the first mission,

Victor. Mr. Krum, he used an incomplete Transfiguration Charm, but it was quite effective, because the creatures he had transformed into were quite intimidating, so no creature dared to attack him, and although he was five minutes late, he was the two warriors who rescued the hostages, and we decided to give him forty points.

Karkaroff pretended not to see the fireworks in the sky, he clapped his hands vigorously and showed off loudly,

Harry. Mr. Potter, who uses the highly effective gill sac grass, helps him easily shake off the attacks of Grindillo and the giant squid, while he is with Fleur. Miss Delacour had returned, but it was a full twenty minutes late, but the merfolk leader told us that Mr. Potter was one of the two hostage hunters, and that he had taken so long to complete his mission because he wanted to rescue all the hostages

Most of the judges – Ludo. Bagman glared at Karkaroff, believing that this kind of behavior showed extraordinary courage and should be given full points of encouragement, but Mr. Potter's score was forty-five.

Harry was stunned, he was now second only to Lawrence, winning over Wickdor and Fleur, Ron and Hermione were stunned, and then laughed as the audience applauded hard, Lawrence pushed Harry and gave him a thumbs up, which made Harry grin,

The final mission, which will be held on the evening of June 24, will be held on the evening of June 24. Bagman must yell hard to drown out the cheers of the crowd with the power of the spell, and we will inform the Warriors of the contents of the mission a month before the scheduled date, thank you for your support

───────

That night, after Lawrence had finished dinner, he left the dining room first, and walked towards Dumbledore's office, which he already knew very well, recited the secret language, and walked through the spiral stone steps in the selection,

Lawrence walked into the headmaster's room without closing the door, except for Dumbledore, Mad-Eye Moody and Snape were all standing aside, and when Lawrence entered the headmaster's room, the shiny oak door closed automatically,

Well, Lawrence, Dumbledore turned around and smiled, and he asked, when did your wand completely seal off its power?

Author's Note:

I won't say, I didn't expect to write three chapters for the second task.

(In fact, I almost wrote four chapters)

Well, obviously, I never wrote about Lawrence casting spells with a wand since a certain chapter.

I went to bed too early yesterday and I can't sleep until now,

In other words, will the cheek be sealed by the starting point?

If I were sealed like this, how would I write a chapter at the end of my fourth volume?
