Chapter 86: The Labyrinth (Part II)
"Oh, our Horton warriors are lady killers!" Bagman sighed, because just now, Meng Yuchen was eliminated by Markov Horton. The two engaged in a fierce battle, and Horton finally knocked Meng Yuchen down with a tricky water ice magic. On the other side of the labyrinth, Krum and Jacob are engaged in a fierce battle.
Almost as soon as the two met, a fierce exchange of fire began. And it's not ordinary magic when it comes up!
Durmstrang taught dark magic, and Krum was naturally proficient in it. As soon as you get your hands on it, it's a mid-level black magic like the Horror Snake. However, Jacob's magical skills are no slouch either.
Seeing the dark green demon snake with a silver light rushing towards him, Jacob immediately recognized this fully upgraded and enhanced version of the Dreadful Technique! Normal magic has little effect on this type of magic, but Jacob is a high-level wizard who specializes in Patronus.
A giant silver wolf appeared in the silver light, blocking the terrifying snake. And just shreds it.
"Oooh! The Patronus Spell turned out to be a tangible Patronus Charm! I have to say that the level of our warriors this year is quite high! After Lady Hilliaux, the Warriors of Covenus also used in addition to the physical Patronus! Outside the labyrinth, Bagman said excitedly! Most of the little wizards were also excited. Although many Hogwarts students have mastered the physical Patronus, they have not mastered many more, and most are well aware of the difficulty of this magic.
In the audience, Blake elbowed Lupin next to him, smiling at him. The latter also gave him a big white eye. Lupin's patronus is also a wolf, but he rarely concretizes it.
Krum was taken aback by the visible Patronus, but as the world's premier Seeker, he was still very quick to react! Before Jacob's next spell arrived, he rolled on the spot to avoid it.
However, if you miss a move, you will lose a move! Losing his first move, Krum faced Jacob's continuous attacks. Although he is agile and quick to react, he is not as good as Jacob, who has been tested in actual combat! In the end, one of them couldn't dodge and was hit by a petrification. At the last moment, Krum unleashed a Sleep Curse. But even at the last moment, Jacob didn't let up, and a light shield spell blocked it. Krum, on the other hand, froze in place.
Looking at the petrified Krum with an unwilling face, Jacob smiled very happily.
Let you snatch my female companion! Let you have more points than me! Make you more popular than me! Give me a penalty!
For Krum, Jacob has gone from being a little fan at the beginning to a lifelong enemy! Well, it's all Hermione's fault!
At this point, there are only four warriors left in the labyrinth: Harry, Daphany, Jacob, and Houghton! And their location is getting closer and closer!
At about the same time that Horton took down Meng Yuchen and Jacob petrified Krum, Daphany and Harry met.
Harry was stopped in his way by a Sphinx.
The Sphinx is a four-star magical creature, but the rating of magical creatures is actually based on their danger. The Sphinx is relatively friendly to wizards, as evidenced by its faction, Good Chaos.
When it comes to actual combat effectiveness, the Sphinx is not ordinarily strong! It can summon storms and dust, it can summon boulders falling from the sky, and it can let out a soul-shaking roar. With the body of a lion, it is also not inferior in hand-to-hand combat, and its comprehensive combat effectiveness is not much inferior to that of the fire dragon.
If you fight head-on, this should be the strongest demonic creature in the labyrinth. But the danger is relatively small. Compared to the bird-shaped man-eater trapped in the chain and the three giant tail snails on the other side, which no one touched, it is less dangerous because it will not actively attack! At this point, for example, it was asking Harry to guess riddles.
Neither Harry's Invisibility Nor Confusion Charm could fool the Sphinx, but that was because of his low level. Daphne, who also uses the Invisibility Charm and the Confusion Charm, stands on the side of the man and the beast, but no one notices it.
The Son of the Plane is the Son of the Plane!
Seeing Harry solve the riddle in the blink of an eye that she didn't even understand, Daphany sighed. She didn't remember if there was one or not, but since it had passed without a hitch, it didn't matter. In other words, the face of that Sphinx is really a beauty! It's not surprising that it grows on a lion!
Daphany quietly followed Harry, thinking wildly.
Suddenly, Daphany felt something. Silently, his fingers rubbed slightly. A vague mist appeared at her feet, and quickly disappeared into the lawn beneath her feet. Even the spectators outside didn't see it.
Daphany deduced from the situation of the third project that the fifth project must also be live, so she acted very carefully. That mist just now is a yin spirit!
The Lestranzi's family magic turned out to be necromancy, much to Daphany's surprise and not particularly surprising. There are so many Yin corpses in the place where Voldemort hid the locket, and it is not clear that Rodolphus is also credited. 591 net
A ghost is a ghost-like thing but much weaker. It is completely incapable of fighting and completely incapable of influencing the material world. Both black and white magic can damage or even destroy it. But this little thing also has advantages, first, it can attach to the caster's sight! That is, the person who uses it can observe the things around it; Second, it is extremely hidden! It's small and like a fog. It's hard to see without intentional observation. However, if you are a wizard who is proficient in necromantic magic, or a wizard like Daphne who is very strong and keen, you can also detect it.
Daphany only refined three Yin Spirits, and refining this thing had to go to the graveyard to collect dead air. Although Daphany is not afraid of ghosts, a place like the cemetery is not suitable for a girl to play at all!
Through the Yin Spirit, Daphany discovers Horton and Jacob not far away.
Horton discovers Jacob, but Jacob doesn't find Horton. Because Holden turned into a puddle of water and lurked in the grass on the ground! Even alert Jacob didn't find out. If it weren't for the fact that even though her vision was attached to the Yin Spirit, she was also sensitive enough to mental fluctuations, and it would have been difficult for Daphany to detect Horton's existence.
But it wasn't Horton who caught Dafanie's attention. Neither Horton's magic nor mental strength was enough to alert Daphany. What really caught his attention was another person hiding in the tree wall!
He looks like Mad-Eye Moody at this point, but Daphany knows that he's Barty Crouch Jr.!
This guy has a bit of a skill, he actually entered the maze without knowing it, and no one found out! After confirming that it was little Crouch, Daphany was not particularly worried. She remembered that it seemed to be this one who secretly helped Harry so that he could find the trophy of the tournament in the first place!
After a moment's hesitation, Daphany didn't do anything that might alarm the trio, just following Harry and distracting the three observers.
Daphine's small movements are naturally invisible to the audience outside. All they could see was that Daphany's perspective was behind Harry, but they couldn't see her.
"Oooh! Miss Lestranze has discovered Potter! But he didn't show up! Also, at this time, seven Warriors had been eliminated, even if she misjudged because she saw one less firework, she also eliminated six. There were only five people left. At this time, it is almost time to enter the academy, and even if it is this academy, it will be time to compete with each other! Bagman gleefully expressed his opinion.
His view won the approval of the audience. The little Slytherin snakes, in particular, are dancing one by one.
Although the relationship between the four Hogwarts houses is already quite harmonious, there is still competition with each other. In the previous three years, the Academy Cup selection was full of gunpowder on the scene every time.
At this time, Slytherin's champion Daphne is hiding in the shadows, ready to knock down Gryffindor's champion Harry, which makes the little snakes very cool! The little snakes are very cool, but the little lions are not happy. Everyone knew that Daphany was better than Harry! At this time, he was still hiding in the shadows, so of course Harry couldn't deal with Daphany! Angelina has been eliminated, and at this time, it seems that Harry will not be able to go to the end!
On the other hand, Horton didn't rush to Jacob. Because Jacob was in other trouble.
Two spiders the size of a bull are flanking Jacob, one in front of the other. They can spew tough and sticky cobwebs from their mouths and are very resistant to magic. Jacob's few powerful spells failed to wreak havoc on them.
"Oh, Korvinus is in trouble!" Seeing that the main perspective turned, Bagman immediately began to comment: "The skills of the Warriors of the Covinus are really very good. I suspect he's probably the strongest wizard in this tournament. Probably only Miss Lestranze can compete with him. But...... Where did the organizing committee get these two big spiders? ”
The two spiders were brought by Hagrid from the Forbidden Forest, and are naturally the descendants of the eight-eyed spider Aragorn. Although they are mixed-blood, they have the blood of five-star dangerous creatures after all, and the magic resistance of these big spiders is still passable.
"However, compared to the two spiders in the open, I think the more threatening player to the Kovinas player should probably be the Holden player hiding in the shadows!" Bagman said with regret.
Bagman's judgment was right, and when Jacob finally defeated the two eight-eyed spiders with all his might, and his mind relaxed slightly, Horton, who had been lurking on the side, suddenly made a move.
Ice Tide + Frozen!
Horton shot very quickly, two magic spells in a row. Even with a calculated and unintentional sneak attack, the first magic was blocked by Jacob, but the second magic still hit. Even so, Jacob fought back, but although the hasty paralysis technique hit Horton, it failed to completely incapacitate Horton. Jacob, on the other hand, was frozen into ice.
Trying his best to overcome the paralysis of his body, Horton gritted his teeth and blessed himself with a recovery technique, which lifted the effect of the paralysis technique. Looking at Jacob, frozen in ice, his face full of fear.
In that case, he was able to counterattack quickly, and almost succeeded! This American wizard is unexpectedly powerful! Horton was secretly frightened. He stepped forward to give Jacob another freezing technique, and then released a red firework into the sky.
Looking around, Horton found a direction and ran away quickly. No coincidence, no coincidence! If you look down at the maze from above, Holden and Harry will go in roughly the same direction and will meet at two turns, where they will see the ultimate goal, the Tournament Trophy!
