60, trophy battle

A corner of the labyrinth.

The mist wafting in the air turned red at some point, and Nicol Lemay looked up at the blood moon that appeared in the sky, his expression was very solemn, he took off his black top hat, turned his head and called, "Wormtail." ”

No one answered.

So he called again: "Wormtail?"

Still no one answered.

Above the mist, the dark clouds gathered at a speed visible to the naked eye, and among them was a muffled thunder, and the maze shrubs rattled and made people feel anxious.

"Wormtail!!"

He shouted in his voice at the highest volume he could.

"Squeak, squeak..."

There was a sound in the labyrinth, and a gray-haired mouse came out of the corner, and in the run, his body swelled and turned into a short man in a jacket, who was dirty and short, and he rubbed his hands nervously: "Come on, what's the matter, Mr. Lemay..."

"Begin, get ready to summon your master. ”

Lemay said expressionlessly.

"Now...?"

Pettigrew looked at his watch in wonder: "It's not the agreed time yet, the mother body and the holy weapon may not be ready yet..."

"It's too late. Nicol Lemay said.

"What happened, Monsieur Lemay?"

"For God's sake!"

Nicol Lemay suddenly became furious, he grabbed a rock and smashed it on the head of Peter Pettigrew: "Why do you have so many questions, you have not responded for so long. ”

"I'm preparing a crucible!!"

Peter Pettigrew, who was hit in the head by a stone, clutched his head and screamed.

"Can't you let your damn master apparition?" scolded Nicol Lemay, incessantly, "Isn't he the greatest dark wizard of all time, who can't do this little thing?"

"The master is too weak! he can't stand the pressure of the tearing space... Mr. Lemay, say it again.... Didn't you promise Mr. Grindelwald that way....."

"Shut up!"

Nicol Lemay drew his wand like a cat with a tail, pointing it straight at the short man.

Peter Pettigrew covered his mouth in fright and took a few steps back, his frightened eyes curling like a mouse being targeted by a cat.

Nicol Lemay gasped heavily, and it took a while to calm down, and he put away his wand, and said with a blushing face: "Go, get that damn beast, go now, don't waste a second!"

His face was so stiff that Peter Pettigrew didn't dare to refute it, and he rushed into the depths of the labyrinth as if he had been pardoned.

Nicol Lemay angrily kicked Peter Pettigrew on the lawn after he left, he looked up at the blood moon outside the mist, and yelled, "Damn it, you all deserve to die!

He was trapped in the labyrinth, furious at something that hadn't happened yet, and he was so angry that he tore half of his hair off.

Ten minutes later.

The sound of horses' hooves sounded from the depths of the labyrinth, and he calmed down from his rage, his face cold and gloomy.

Da-da-da-da!

From the depths of the labyrinth came a tall unicorn.

The unicorn flung its neck angrily, trying to shake off the rope around its neck, and Peter Pettigrew was flung around on the ground in embarrassment, trying to hold the tall beast, but couldn't pull him at all.

Catching a glimpse of Peter Pettigrew's embarrassed posture, Nicol Lemay drew his wand and strode forward, flicking his wand and spewing out several branches of lightning that spewed out several strands of lightning that were attached to the unicorn's neck like a lasso.

The violent magic provoked an even fiercer resistance from the unicorn, and it struggled frantically, throwing Peter Pettigrew, who was pulling it, into the sky, and Nicol Lemay looked like iron. He took a glass orb from his wizard's robe and threw it at the unicorn.

The glass ball smashed into the unicorn's neck, shattering, and a pink, crystalline cloud of smoke seeped out of the glass bottle and wrapped around the unicorn's head.

After inhaling the smoke, the giant unicorn staggered to the ground as if drunk, snorting and shaking its head, trying to break free from the pink smoke, but fell headlong to the ground, causing the ground to shake twice.

Nicol Lemay drew his wand and stepped forward.

"Don't hurt him!"

A mournful voice could be heard in the distance.

A young girl came running from a distance, rushed to Nicol Lemay's side, and shook his shoulder vigorously: "Hey, you let him go." What did he do wrong?"

The dark clouds in the sky obscured the moonlight, and a flash of lightning tore through the darkness, illuminating the three men and one beast in snow-white, and the unicorn of the divine steed was frightened and tried to stand up, but could not do anything.

"Hey, did you hear me, let him go!"

Fleur shook Lemay's arm vigorously. Peter Pettigrew crawled out of the unicorn, rushed to the girl, grabbed her arm without saying anything, and pulled him away from Nicol Lemay.

Nicol Lemay looked at the girl who was pulled by the worm's tail, and said nothing, her lips pale.

"Mr. Lemay...?" Peter Pettigrew reminded him, "Let's start the ritual." ”

Nicol Lemay gritted his teeth, the sweat on his head dripping down his head, he looked away, and moaned, "Hell, Grindelwald, Riddle, you are really a devil......"

"Mr. Lemay!"

Peter Pettigrew couldn't help but take a step forward and reminded him, "When are we going to start?" ”

Nicol Lemay looked at Peter Pettigrew's stubby, dirty nails pinching the girl's delicate arms, and he frowned in disgust: "I know what to do, you let her go first." ”

Peter Pettigrew let go of Fleur, but still pointed his wand at her, slowly backing away.

Nicol Lemay crouched down and asked Fleur Delacour, "Do you like this unicorn very much?"

"Of course, someone wouldn't like him. ”

Fleur slumped on the ground and looked at the unicorn stupidly: "He's so beautiful." ”

"Do you want to ride him?"

Nicol Lemay asked, his tone unheveling, but the hand behind his back trembled.

"You let me ride him?"

She asked curiously, "Won't he be angry?"

"Well, with a little skill, it shouldn't be too strange. ”

As Nicol Lemay spoke, sweat flowed down his head like a waterfall, his facial muscles twitched, and his smile was as unnatural as if he had been electrocuted.

"That's good~"

Nicol Lemay turned around and winked at Peter Pettigrew, who understood and took a bottle out of his pocket. He opened the bottle and poured the green juice inside on the grass.

Countless tangled vines grew rapidly on the meadow, intertwined like skeletons. It grew to resemble a chest and spine, and eventually, the vines twisted into the skeleton of a creature.

Then, Nicol Lemay waved his wand, and more tiny vines grew on the vines, dense and differentiated, covering the thick vines that had previously formed the skeleton like muscle fibers, covering them over and over again, and green leaves grew on the vines.

Finally, a three-meter-tall female unicorn made entirely of plants stood on the grass in the labyrinth.

Nicol Lemay looked at the fake unicorn made of plants and turned around alone, not wanting to look at it again.

Peter Pettigrew stood underneath the plant unicorn and touched the soil with the last drop of green juice from his fingertips.

So the ground plants grew again, this time they intertwined with each other and grew into a delicate flower ladder that led from the ground to the female unicorn's ribcage, where there was a hole the size of a man.

After doing all this, he couldn't help but smile evilly, "Go up." ”

"What is this?"

Fleur looked curiously at the other female unicorn made of vegetation in front of her.

"Holy relics. Peter Pettigrew shrugged indifferently: "To make him accept you, you have to become like it." ”

"It is a heinous crime to hurt unicorns, they are the pets of the gods, and they are all to be returned to the gods in the end. Fleur said with a serious face.

"God...?"

Wormtail laughed, and he shook his head with a smile, "In that case, God shouldn't have created them." ”

After saying that, Peter Pettigrew rubbed his hands together and bent down deeply like a professional hotel waiter: "Please." ”

Fleur looked at the ladder in front of her, her eyes full of confusion, she touched the ladder, and retracted her hand like an electric shock, like a child teasing a cobra.

But Wormtail got impatient, and he grabbed Fleur's skirt and pressed her against her back, pressing her against the vine ladder.

The ladder was alive, and the snake wrapped around Fleur without dragging her in the slightest, and swept her into the false unicorn's chest, without even making her scream.

After she entered the body of the fake unicorn through her chest, the green fake unicorn made of plants bloomed countless white and flawless flowers, and it looked beautiful, just like a real unicorn.

On the other side, the male unicorn, who was languishing from inhaling pink smoke, stood up in surprise when he saw the fake unicorn full of white flowers, and snorted in a rhythmic manner.

Another flash of lightning flashed, and Wormtail laughed happily.

Nicol Lemay covered his mouth as he listened to the noise behind him.

......

......

On the other side, the auditorium.

"What are the warriors doing?"

"Why can't we see what's inside the labyrinth!?"

Someone shouted angrily, "Let's watch the players play!"

"Liar, big liar!"

"Waste of our time. ”

"Hurry up and let us see the players. ”

"That's right, why is it almost half an hour since the game started, and you can't see anything in it, what are you doing in the organizer?"

"Everyone, be quiet, calm down, it's a little dark, the wind is a little strong, and the trees in the maze seem to be better than I imagined... To be lush... Luxuriant..."

Host Ludo Bagman stammered, he tried his best to calm the audience's doubts, but he had no confidence, because he couldn't see anything, and the entire arena had become a complete black box since half an hour ago.

Obviously, the audience didn't buy it, and it was okay not to speak, but when they spoke, they pointed the finger at the host Ludo Bagman.

"Did we come all the way and sit here and watch the trees?"

"Who came up with the idea, and why use a maze?"

"It's just that the confrontation is so weak, it's not exciting at all. ”

They waved their hats, smashed their drinks, and the crowd was in a state of flux, and in the face of so many spectators' doubts, he didn't know what to do for a while, he was submissive, and even the microphone moved from his mouth to his chest.

Keenly aware of the chaos born in the audience, Grindelwald, who was sitting at the top, couldn't help grinning: "The show has begun." ”

He clapped his palms, and every tree in the labyrinth had dense fruits, large or small, on the branches.

But those fruits are one eye after another.

"Oh!!"

In the stands outside the labyrinth, thousands of spectators let out an exclamation in unison. Their eyes are like a television screen, and the broadcast images in the maze automatically appear.

"I saw it, we saw it!"

"yes!"

Ludo Bagman breathed a sigh of relief, the passion flowing in his body finally found an outlet, and he excitedly put the microphone back to his mouth, "Look, who did we see, that was Harry Potter, what was he doing?"

......

......

Deep in the labyrinth.

A teenager with messy hair running wildly, with messy black hair, glasses on his eyes, and a scar on his head, is none other than Harry Potter.

A hundred meters away from his line of sight, there sat a high platform, on which a golden trophy shimmered seductively in the night lightning.

With the Triwizard Tournament champion at hand, no one could help but get excited, and he was so excited that he didn't even see the bushes around him bear one small fruit after another.

Suddenly, a dark shadow rushed into the road in front of him.

It was a handsome teenager and Cedric Diggory was ahead of the game, and he was sprinting towards the trophy at full speed.

Harry knew he couldn't catch up. Cedric is much taller than him and has longer legs than he is. But he didn't want to give up, and immediately quickened his pace.

Just as the two of them were fifty meters away from the trophy, Harry saw a huge object outside the hedge on his left, moving rapidly in this direction on a crossed road, and Cedric was about to hit it, but Cedric was staring at the trophy and didn't see it.

"Cedric! Watch out for the left!"

Harry Potter shouted.

Cedric Diggory turned his head to see it, and with a quick flash, he avoided colliding with the thing, but the movement was so strong that he fell.

Harry saw Cedric's wand fly out, and a huge spider crawled over and leaned down towards Cedric.

"Faint!"

Harry shouted, the spell striking the spider's massive, black, hairy body, but it looked like a stone was thrown at it. The spider twitched, then quickly turned and charged at Harry.

"Faint! Obstacles! Faint!"

It didn't work - maybe the spider was too big, or maybe its magic was too strong for the spell to work on it, but it only angered it even more. Harry saw in horror eight flashing black eyes and sharp pincers, and the spider had pounced on him.

The spider lifted him into the air with his front legs, and he struggled desperately. He tried to kick it with his foot, and his leg touched its pincers, and immediately there was a piercing pain. He heard Cedric shouting "Faint!", but his spell didn't work either - the spider spread its pincers again, and Harry raised his wand and shouted "Remove your weapon!"

The disarming spell caused the spider to let go of him, but it meant that Harry fell from a height of three meters. The already injured leg could not hold the weight of his body, and he collapsed to the ground at once. Without even thinking about it, he aimed his wand at the spider's lower abdomen and shouted "Pass out!"

Cedric shouted the same incantation.

The two spells combined to produce a spell that didn't work: the spider fell to the side, crushing a hedge, and its long, hairy legs were spread across the ground.

"Harry!" he heard Cedric shout, "are you alright? It didn't fall on you, did it?"

The sound got closer and closer, and his classmates rushed out of the darkness and hugged him from the ground.

"Nope. Harry shouted out of breath. He looked down at his leg, which was bleeding profusely. There was something sticky on the torn robe, secreted from the spider's pincers.

He tried to stand up, but his legs were shaking so badly that he couldn't support the weight of his body. Cedric Diggory helped him on, and the two leaned against a hedge just a foot away from the Triple, the trophy glittering seductively behind them.

For a moment, they were speechless.

"What the hell is going on..."

Cedric Diggory was the first to break the silence, muttering, "I'm afraid it's going to rain." ”

"Yes, it thunders in early spring. Harry chimed in, though he didn't know why he was taking it.

"Did you see the two of them on the way, Fleur and Krum?" Cedric asked.

Harry: "No. ”

Cedric: "It's weird, I didn't see them either, it's like they've all disappeared for a ......"

"Take it,"

Cedric was abruptly interrupted by Harry, who closed his eyes and gasped, "You've arrived. ”

Cedric didn't move. He stood there looking at Harry, then looked back at the trophy, and Harry could see the longing look on Cedric's face in the light of the lightning in the sky. But after looking at him for a while, Cedric looked back at him and took a deep breath.

"You take it, you should win. You saved my life twice. ”

"That's not how the rules are. Harry said. He felt annoyed, his leg hurt so badly that he was now in pain all over his body in order to get rid of the spider: "Whoever arrives first scores, you arrive first." I'm telling the truth, I can't race on this leg. ”

Cedric took a few steps towards the fainting spider and moved a little further away from the trophy. He shook his head. "Nope. ”

"Don't be in style," Harry pushed him away impatiently, "go, take it, take it and we'll get out." The rainstorm is coming. ”

Cedric saw Harry clutching to the hedge so he could stand still.

"You told me there was a dragon," Cedric said, "and if you hadn't warned me beforehand, I would have been eliminated on the first project." ”

"That's when I got help first," Harry said impatiently, "you told me the secret of the golden egg, and we got it even." ”

"Someone helped me first. Cedric said.

"We're even. Harry cautiously tested his injured leg, and as soon as he pressed the weight on it, it trembled violently, and he sprained his foot and neck when he was thrown down by the spider.

"You should have scored a little bit higher in the second event," Cedric said stubbornly, "and you stayed behind and rescued all the hostages." I should have done that. ”

"I'm the only one who was stupid enough to take that song seriously!" Harry said angrily, "Get the trophy! it's going to rain on this day, and if you don't take it, there might be an accident." ”

"Nope. Cedric said.

He walked over to Harry again. Harry glared at him. Cedric was serious. He was giving up honors that Hufflepuff House hadn't received in hundreds of years.

"There you go. Cedric said. It seems that it took all his perseverance to say this. But his expression was resolute, and he crossed his arms, as if he had made up his mind.

Harry's gaze shifted to the trophy. The electric light of the sky imprinted his face on the trophy, and he was in a trance, as if he saw himself holding it out of the labyrinth. He held the Triumph Cup aloft, and the cheers of the crowd were in his ears. He saw that Qiu's face was filled with admiration, and it was clearer than ever, as long as he won the Triwizard Tournament, everyone would be impressed with him......

However, the hallucinations vanished, and he saw Cedric's stubborn face in the darkness.

"We're both together. Harry said.

"What?"

"If two people take it at the same time, it's still Hogwarts that wins. We are tied for the championship. ”

Cedric glared at Harry, letting go of his clutched arm.

"You...... Do you really want that?"

"Of course," said Harry, "of course...... We helped each other overcome the difficulties, right? The two of us got here together, so let's go get it together. ”

For a moment Cedric seemed unable to believe his ears, and then he smiled.

"Listen to you, come on. ”

He grabbed Harry's arm and helped Harry limp towards the trophy. Once they had walked, they each held their hands above a shining handle.

"Count to three, okay?"

Harry Potter said, "One-two-three-."

Rumble!

Accompanied by a blinding burst of lightning.

A grumpy giant thunderbird descends from the sky, and the wind blows Harry Potter and Cedric ten meters away.

I saw that the creature was ten meters long, with six wings that covered the sky and the sun, the huge eagle's beak glittered in the night sky, every muscle of it exuded the aura of a hundred battles and thousands of tempers, and each feather was as gorgeous and slender as tassel silk.

Harry and Cedric looked up, and Kiki exclaimed, "What!??"

Subsequently.

Click!

I saw that the creature that had never been seen before stretched out its claws as sharp and heavy as a crane hook, and stomped the golden trophy to pieces.
