Fleur abstained.

Shortly after the red light exploded in mid-air and scattered into sparks, the rescue team arrived quickly on broomsticks and took her and her sister Gabrielle out of the labyrinth.

For her, although there is always some unwillingness. But she already understood that with her strength, she couldn't even rescue her sister, and even if she was allowed to continue playing, she didn't have the ability to take her sister out of this dangerous labyrinth.

After saying goodbye to Fleur and Gabrielle, Maca left first. However, he hadn't taken a few steps before he noticed that Hermione was following him without saying a word.

"Is she pretty?" Hermione asked nonchalantly.

When a girl asks you if other girls are not beautiful, it means that something is wrong. Maca knew it well, but it was not easy to answer this question......

"Hmm......" A look of complexity flashed across his face, and he nodded his head, "Beautiful." ”

Some of Hermione's thoughts, Maca had noticed a little before. To be honest, he wasn't repulsive to Hermione herself, but for now, his troubles weren't suitable for playing with puppy love.

"What about Luna?"

Hermione didn't dwell on this question, but what Maca never expected was that there was still a question waiting for him.

"Well, it's beautiful too."

Just think of me as a playboy—Maca thought to herself.

"Where's Professor McGonagall?"

"Ahem--" He almost choked on his own saliva.

Maca quickly breathed a sigh of relief, and then turned to look at Hermione, only to see that she was actually snickering. In desperation, he shook his head—it seemed that he had probably been tricked by this clever little witch once.

"If I have the chance, I'll ask Professor McGonagall for a portrait of her when she was younger, and I'll show you when the time comes, so you can see if she's pretty or not." Maca spread her hands and casually made a little joke.

However, what Maca didn't notice was that although Hermione had a smile on her face, there was a faint sense of loss in her eyes.

When the two came across another fork in the road, Hermione suddenly spoke.

"I've got to go this way, my 'treasure' is Krum, he should be in that direction--" Her hand reached halfway, but retracted again, just waving lightly in front of her.

"I won't lose to you!"

With that, Hermione turned around and ran to the right-hand side of the road without looking back.

Maca looked at her back and couldn't help but scratch her head.

“…… It seems that the girl's heart is much more difficult to guess than the riddle of the Sphinx. ”

He sighed slightly, putting the mess aside. For now, he must concentrate and be ready for the critical point of his plan.

For him, there was no time to think about anything else.

It's been a long time since the previous explosion, and the fog over the area has gathered again, and the surroundings have become pitch black again.

However, Maca's pace picked up again.

There are a lot of magical creatures in the labyrinth, but most of them are not difficult to deal with. As he scurried along, he finally realized that the route he had recorded had coincided with a corner of the first map fragment.

And the first fragment partially overlapped with the one in Luna's area, so the rest of the work was simple.

"This should be the shortest route."

After checking the map again, he hurried towards Luna's location.

In fact, Maca understood Fleur's mood at the time. Not to mention the likes and dislikes, as far as Maca is concerned, Luna does have a lot of place in his heart.

Maybe Dumbledore's means of protecting the "treasure" are quite reliable, but what if? For example, what if the troll suddenly had a brain thrash and slammed it into the stone pillar?

Maca doesn't plan to win the championship, but Luna still has to stay by her side to reassure him.

With the exact route in hand, Maca soon found Luna's location in another clearing - a steel cage embedded in the ground.

And just above the cage, a huge snake-like creature was entrenched there, staring at Maca who had suddenly appeared in front of it with its three pairs of eyes.

It was a three-headed snake with a white belly, but a bright orange color on its back, and black barbs on it, which looked extremely hideous.

And its three heads......

The one on the right, with its eyes held high and fierce, hissed its bright red tongue at Maca; The one on the left is crouched on top of the entrenched snake, with a grim glint in his eyes.

As for the snake head in the middle...... It seems to be in a daze?

"What kind of creature is this?" Maca looked at it with a rare hint of hesitation.

He seemed to have seen this snake in some illustrated book, but was it really the one he thought it would be?

The three-headed snake was huge, and although it was nowhere near as large as the basilisk, it was also more than twenty feet long, and it looked like it was by no means easy to deal with. The one on the left, in particular, has a lot of wisdom at first glance, and may not be able to treat it as a beast.

"Hiss...... Wizard, the little witch below...... Hiss...... Is it your 'treasure'? ”

Sure enough, the head on the left side of the three-headed snake was the first to speak.

"That's right." Maca nodded, "Give her to me, and say directly if there are any conditions." ”

"Hiss...... Dumbledore said that if only someone could solve our troubles...... Hiss...... We can hand over the 'treasure'. ”

"Hiss...... Just rely on this little point? I think that's a bad idea! The head on the right suddenly shrieked, "Hiss...... Idea! ”

"Shut up!" The head on the left immediately roared loudly.

"Hiss...... You're so foolish, and you won't let me say it? Hiss...... If you want me to say, working with a wizard is stupid! Hiss ......"

"Shhh Shut up! ”

When Maca saw that the two heads were about to quarrel, and the middle head was still in a daze, she had some affirmation in her heart.

"But...... Is the rune snake this big? He hesitated, "The largest rune snake in the record is about eight feet long, and this one is obviously more than twenty feet. ”

The Runi snake is a three-headed snake native to Upper Volta, Africa, and was once associated with dark wizards. The vast majority of what wizards know about them comes from Parseltongue talking to them.

Yes, this snake probably doesn't speak the human language.

"Maybe it's because this one has lived long enough...... "Maca thought for a moment, and couldn't help but say secretly, "It's right, the left head of the Runi snake is quite intelligent, and it wouldn't be surprising if he could learn the prophecy of humans." ”

In fact, Maca guessed right.

All accounts of the rune snake indicate that their three heads were always quarrelling. And that's because they have three distinct personalities.

On the left is the mastermind, who decides where the ontology should go and what it should do; In the middle is the fantasist, who is always indulged in brilliant visions and fantasies; The right head is the critic, who constantly comments on all the actions and words of the other two heads, and of course, it is the beginning of all quarrels.

Because of this, when the other two heads can't stand it, they will work together to bite off the right head directly - so the rune snake will not live too long.

However, this runi snake is different from its kind, although its three heads often quarrel, but because of some abnormalities in the middle head, it will not escalate to the point of fighting without saying a word.

For example, right now --

"Roar--"

It was a roar with magical power, and as this roar continued, even the ground around it began to tremble, completely suppressing the quarrel between the two heads on both sides.

Maca frowned and waved her wand, casting an area mute spell, which made her feel a little quieter.

Seeing that the snake head in the middle closed his mouth, he lifted the mute spell and said calmly: "What you want me to solve should be to quarrel when it's no longer okay, right?" ”

"Yes, that's right!" The head in the middle said sullenly, "These two guys are always arguing, so I can't think about things!" ”

"Isn't it easy?" Maca waved her hand casually, "Wouldn't it be okay to bite them both off?" ”

"Hiss...... Are you stupid when we are bosses? ”

"Click--"

"Hiss...... You're really stupid! ”

"Click--"

Even Maca didn't expect it, he just said it so casually, and the head in the middle took a bite left and right very neatly, biting the other two heads clean--

"Wizard, you're so smart...... I've lived for more than 300 years, so why didn't I think there was such a way? "But, why do I feel a little weak?" ”

"Forget it, you don't need the strength to think about things anyway......"

After speaking, it threw its head over its body and slowly closed its eyes.

Maca shook her head strangely as she looked at the two huge wounds and the bubbling snake blood.

"It seems that this runi snake can live so long because the head in the middle is strong enough and stupid enough!"

The wizarding world is full of wonders, but it's rare to see such a strange experience - for the first time, he had the idea to write this story down.

Regrouping her speechless mood from being made by the strange snake, Maca soon came behind the strange snake.

There, there was a steel cage embedded entirely in the ground, and when Maca looked down, it happened to meet Luna's gaze.

"Maca?" She tilted her head and said in a trance, "I'm a little hungry, is there anything to eat?" ”

Maca looked at her, then at the strange snake behind her. He suddenly felt that, in a way, Luna really had some resemblance to the head in the middle of the strange snake!

"There are 300 years of snake meat, do you want to eat it?" He shrugged his shoulders and said, "It's just a little silly." ”
