Chapter 84: The Labyrinth (I)

Unlike the previous four projects, the final project took place in the afternoon or even near dusk.

The warriors simply padded their bellies—except for Dafanie and Meng Yuchen, both of whom had big hearts and had a full meal. After that, we came to the arena to prepare for the final competition.

Today's audience is extraordinarily large. In fact, many parents of Hogwarts and Guest House students have come to Hogwarts. If it weren't for the special magic exerted by the venue, the huge Quidditch grandstand would not have been able to seat so many people.

The audience exchanged excitedly, and there were more than bursts of smiles. The air was filled with excitement.

The sky was a clear deep blue, and some starlight could already be faintly seen. However, in England in June, even at night, you don't feel the slightest chill.

The members of the organizing committee were making their final checks, and the warriors were already standing at the door of the maze.

Mr. Crouch still didn't show up this time, and Daphany wondered if it had been killed by her own son. Was there this original plot? Daphany doesn't remember much.

"Victory is important, but safety is even more important!" Professor McGonagall is eyeing the three heroes of Hogwarts - Snape is completely unreliable at this time, so the work is done by Professor McGonagall as the Deputy Principal. She used as much soothing tone as possible, not as harsh as before: "We will always patrol the outside of the maze, and if we encounter difficulties and want to be rescued, we will shoot red sparks into the sky!" Someone will help you right away! Do you understand? ”

Daphany all nodded.

At this time, the members of the organizing committee came out of the maze. Daphine glanced at it, there were five of them, all of them were powerful wizards!

"Ladies and gentlemen!" Out of nowhere, Mr. Bagman blessed himself with a amplification charm, "The last match of the tournament is about to begin!" First of all, I'd like to talk about the current points situation! ”

Bagman then introduced the Warriors in descending order of points:

Angelina Johnson 171 points, Kemin Ray 166 points, Dafanie Lestranzy 154 points, Jacob Covinas 153 points, Shen Yalan 152 points, Victor Krum and Audreyna Heliax 151 points, Fleur Delacour 148 points, Harry Potter 143 points, Meng Yuchen 139 points, Markov Houton 102 points.

"Wait, when I blow the whistle, the number one player can enter the maze and then the next name every minute. Two people with tied scores enter at the same time! Somewhere in the labyrinth, there is the final trophy of the tournament, and whoever gets that trophy will be the ultimate winner! Did you all get it? ”

The warriors nodded.

"Although the deans of all the colleges should have reminded me, I still have to remind them again! The Organizing Committee and the professors of the Academy will be patrolling the outside of the maze all the time, and if they encounter difficulties and want to be rescued, they will shoot red sparks into the sky! Someone will help you right away! Of course, this also means that you have given up on the project, understand? ”

The warriors nodded again.

"Then ......" Bagman picked up the whistle: "Three...... Two...... "......" he blew the whistle, and Angelina immediately jumped out like a leopard and was the first to rush into the labyrinth.

Percy, who was beside Bagman, conjured a huge hourglass and placed it on the ground almost at the same time. The sand in the hourglass flows down quickly.

"When the sand of the hourglass is gone, the next batch of runners can go!" Bagman said to the rest of the players. All the players immediately stared at the hourglass. At the moment when the hourglass ran out, Kaiming Thunder waved his wand, and the whole person suddenly rushed into the labyrinth like a violent wind. Percy reversed the hourglass at the same time.

When the hourglass drained again, Daphany quickly entered the labyrinth.

Almost as soon as she stepped into the labyrinth, Daphine's figure faded, and her two steps out of sight were still completely gone.

Invisibility! True complete invisibility is not the same as the illusion technique that conceals the body. Daphine glanced back and was surprised to find that there was a wall of trees behind her, and there was no road she had just walked into!

Is this to prevent the front from coming in at the door? Daphine wondered if she had actually thought about doing it. But behind her was Jacob, and Daphany had a good impression of the werewolf boy, so she gave up. At this time, it seems that even if you want to, you can't do it.

The labyrinth is quiet and dark, giving it an eerie feel.

Daphany quietly blessed herself with an eagle eye. In a state of invisibility, of course, it is impossible for her to use fluorescence to reveal her whereabouts. Looking at the six-meter-high tree wall, Daphne thought about it and quietly added a levitation technique to herself, wanting to try it on it. 120

But something strange happened again, no matter how high Daphany rose, it always seemed so far from the top of the tree wall.

It seems that he has been prepared for a long time to put an end to tricks! Daphany muttered to herself. I also feel that I underestimate people. immediately stopped thinking about stealing and playing tricks, and casually found a fork in the road and got in.

Daphany walked against the wall, not very fast. It took about a minute to go around a corner, and nothing was touched during that time. I am proud of my luck. However, just after the second turn, they were attacked.

The originally peaceful tree wall suddenly stretched out countless branches, wrapping around Daphany who was clinging to the wall, and then tightened to pull closer to the wall.

Heavenly Demon Vines! Daphany was the first to make a judgment. This is a magic plant similar to the Devil's Net, but the winding speed is faster, and it won't relax without fighting like the Devil's Net! The powerful Heavenly Demon Vine can easily strangle a cow to death! And there is no disadvantage that the devil's net is afraid of light and fire - as a plant, the heavenly demon vine is also afraid of fire and will be burned, but it will not curl up when it sees a little fire. The slight downside is that it is not as tough as the devil's net, and it can break free with a sharp knife or a strong enough impact.

Daphne secretly snorted carelessly, it is the right thing to arrange vine traps inside the tree wall, and she actually walked against the tree wall, which is really a death!

Self-deprecation is self-deprecation, of course, this kind of thing can't restrain Daphany. A whispered incantation was uttered, and an invisible shield appeared around the body, then stretched. The vines were blocked by an invisible barrier, stretching through huge gaps. Daphany easily got out.

It was getting dark.

Daphine learned from her experience and didn't continue walking against the tree wall. I guess I walked for about seven or eight minutes, turned three times, and blasted a swallowtail dog that had obviously been crossbred.

Daphne suspects that it is Hagrid's masterpiece again, and the swallow-tailed dog, although fierce, will not be that big! And usually only attacks ordinary people who don't have magical powers. This is one of the few low-level demonic creatures where a clear distinction can be made between wizards and ordinary people. Very kind to wizards. However, the one that Daphine came across barked at the invisible Daphine and then pounced.

The three-star magical creature faced Daphine, and there was no other possibility than to be hanged. Even if it has a huge body shape that is almost two meters long, it is no exception!

Invisibility is effective against wizards, but it's not as effective against magical creatures with a keen sense of smell! If it's a blood or a werewolf wizard with a special sense of smell or other senses, this trick doesn't seem to be very good! Daphany remembered the first time she fought Fenrir Greyback. Werewolf Fenrir Greyback will be able to discover his invisible self.

Unbeknownst to Daphany, the last warrior has also entered the labyrinth. Above the maze, there is a live projection of the third item. Let all the spectators see the warriors in action.

When Daphne beats the swallow-tailed dog, it happens to be on the large projection in the center.

"Good boy, such a big swallow-tailed dog. Daphany pounded it like a pug! In the audience, Ron was amazed.

"Don't say it's a swallow-tailed dog, even if it's Hagrid's three-headed dog, Daphne can easily clean it up now!" Hermione pouted. Daphany's combat power is something she envies very much.

At this point, the screen turned, and the large screen in the center was replaced by Harry. However, the screen was empty, except for the blades of grass on the ground that were dented from time to time, and a footprint let people know that someone was passing by.

In the middle of the road lies a giant reptile - it's Hagrid's new species of scorpion-tailed hybrid between a human-headed sphin-tailed and a fire crab, the fried tail snail! The six-meter-long snail in front of me crawled there, its tail crackling from time to time.

However, the camera of the screen slowly shifted from its side, and the tail snail did not react.

Clever invisibility and confusion! The discerning wizard made a judgment. Although the sensory ability of the fried tail snail is relatively poor, at least it will definitely not be able to catch up with the swallowtail dog, but it is not so that someone passes by and does not feel it. He must have cast a very clever confusion spell to make the snail, a creature that is not very intelligent after all, ignore his existence.

Harry was in the same situation as Angelina. Last night, Daphany gave the two of them a blitz training, specializing in invisibility and confusion. As for Daphany herself, she didn't use the Confusion Charm, and she didn't mind having a fight with what was found out of her. If it's something that can't be done, then even the Confusion Charm can't fool it!

Sou! A fiery red firework shot up into the sky, and most of the warriors in the labyrinth looked up, wondering who had sent the distress signal. You know, when you send a distress signal, it means that the project has failed!

From the audience's point of view, they see Krum calmly unleash the fireworks, and then put his wand in the hands of Audreyna, who is lying unconscious on the ground.

A few seconds earlier, Audreyna had just relaxed after using the Patronus Charm to knock a Boggart into a Dementor. Krum, who was hiding on the side, suddenly struck out and knocked him unconscious with a stun charm.

Unexpectedly, the first one to be eliminated was the very optimistic among the eleven warriors, Audreyna, the descendant of the Hillies-Ax family!

After doing all this, Krum quickly left, and a moment later, an ugly Madame Maxim appeared beside Audreyna and took her out.
