Chapter 163: Fighting

Ning An waved his wand, and the surrounding hedges were immediately twisted together like hemp ropes, tightly turning into a truly airtight wall, completely isolating the possibility of peeking into the maze from between the pores.

"So that no one will bother us."

He looked at Harry and Fleur, who were still in a daze, and rubbed his head, feeling a little troublesome.

"Here, do me a favor—"

Whispering to Pani, who was standing behind him vigilantly, Ning An picked up a prismatic stone from the ground, pressed his wand against the stone, and recited a spell.

The Transfiguration Technique immediately took effect, and the prismatic stone turned into a silver dagger that shone with a sharp light on Ning An's palm, and he threw the dagger to Pani, who immediately understood what he had to do, which the two had already discussed.

"You...... What to do!? ”

Harry watched Cedric, walking towards him with a dagger in hand, the short silver dagger, under the light of the fluorescent charm, reflecting the white light so brightly that people couldn't open their eyes.

It's too reckless, if only the red sparks were sent out to notify the patrolling professors before rushing out.

Harry looked desperately at the hedge fence that had become tightly knit around him, no one could see clearly from the outside, what was going on inside, he propped his palms on the ground, crawled back as hard as he could, he couldn't do anything without his wand, but how far back could he go?

There was a hard blow to the back, Harry knew he had retreated, and Fleur opened her eyes in horror as Cedric approached Harry step by step with a dagger in hand? Potter, while Krum stood aside, watching the scene with interest.

She couldn't believe that what was in front of her was real, her hands on her head, her silver hair was crumpled into a mess, and her body trembled, as if trying to stop Cedric from moving on, but when she raised her hand again, she realized that her wand had already been knocked away.

"Ah——!h Fleur screamed, and Harry saw Krum turn his head with a look of embarrassment on his face, and then slowly raised his wand.

"N-don't!"

Harry screamed at Krum, he tried to get up from the ground, but because of too much force, he accidentally fell again, his legs were shaking, Cedric was less than a meter away from him, the cold light of the dagger reflected coldly on Harry's face.

"Live...... Stop, ......! ”

Harry yelled at Krum, but that didn't stop him from chanting a spell at Fleur, and a blinding red light shot out, and Fleur fell to the ground, slumped on the ground, dead or alive, Harry leaning against the hedge wall behind him, his vest soaked with sweat.

Is Fleur dead? I don't know, he doesn't have time to care about others, Cedric walked up to him, Harry shouted, he didn't know what was wrong with Cedric, from the first glance of entering the labyrinth, was he controlled by the Imperius Curse? Krum took control of him?

"Diggory ...... Diggory! Come to your senses...... Come on...... Diggory ......"

Harry struggled, but Cedric was surprisingly strong, and he first grabbed Harry's arm and slammed his knee into his lower abdomen.

"Knock"

Harry felt as if all his internal organs had fallen out of place, a stream of acid water surging through his stomach, and the next second he was about to vomit out everything he had eaten tonight.

Cedric then clamped Harry's arm.

"Quick Confinement"

Krum's spell flew mercilessly behind Cedric, striking Harry right in the body, the Imprisonment Spell making him immobile and half-hunched over as if he wanted to vomit.

"You can't let him move, that would really scratch him-"

Harry could hear Krum's explanation, and it felt as if he was still thinking about himself, he must be crazy, Harry shouted in his heart, he was crazy, Wickdor? Krum is absolutely crazy.

"Poof—"

Pain, Harry only had one feeling, the piercing pain came from his arm, he kept his head down when he was imprisoned, so he couldn't see what Cedric did, but the feeling of his body would not be wrong, his arm was slit, it was the dagger, the dagger that flashed with cold light, cut his right arm.

"Tick, tick-tock—"

The small transparent glass vial flashed from Harry's field of vision, followed by dark red droplets of blood, at first a few drops, which soon joined together and fell into the bottle.

They are taking my blood.

The robes had already been torn, and Harry could clearly feel the blood in his body running from the crook of his arm, strangely speaking, the pain was not so obvious, but a feeling of weakness began to spread throughout his body, and then he saw Cedric quickly fill a small glass bottle, and then took out the second one.

But why should you take my blood? Harry cursed in his heart, cursed Krum, this madman, yes, he was crazy, he even used the Unforgivable Curse, and now it was not impossible for him to bleed and die.

Out of the corner of his eye, he searched the dark labyrinth passage on the left, hoping to find his wand that had been knocked away, if ...... Even if you have the slightest chance to stay for a while, you can rush over and pick up the wand......

"Well, it's almost ......"

There was one more shadow on the ground, it was Krum, who slowly walked up to Harry, and Cedric sealed the second bottle with a small amount of blood with a cork and handed it to Krum.

"Heal fast."

A cold wooden stick topped his arm, and the next second, Harry realized that it was Krum's wand, and with the sound of the spell, there was a crisp feeling when the severed arm just now was bent, numb and itchy, as if there were countless ants crawling.

Harry tried to scratch with his hands, but he was confined and couldn't move, but the tingling soon passed, and he heard Cedric's voice again.

"What about the two of them?"

His heart chuckled and began to sink rapidly, he was afraid that Krum would spit out a cold sentence "Kill them", and his teeth were about to bite his lip, this feeling of powerlessness was so bad that Harry would not sit still like this even if his wand was still in his hand.

"Hmm...... Take it away, we need one person to tell Dumbledore, but it doesn't matter if we're two...... If you leave it here, don't be eaten by a monster that pops up out of nowhere. ”

What is he saying? Harry was confused, perhaps reassuringly, the two men weren't going to kill, but what they were talking about? Message to Dumbledore? Scratching his head, Harry couldn't understand what they were talking about.

The people who were familiar with the previous two projects are now completely different, not to mention that Fleur is difficult to accept, Harry himself feels as if he is still in a dream, maybe he will wake up from his dream after a while, and find himself lying on the soft velvet bed in the Gryffindor bedroom, going to breakfast with Ron Hermione, and continuing to make insignificant preparations for the final three in the evening.

But unfortunately, the cold reality quickly pulled Harry back from his imagination, and his body, which was still bound by the confinement technique, was sprayed out of Krum's wand, and the hemp rope the thickness of his wrist was entangled, from his neck to his ankles, and Harry couldn't break free.

Then two pairs of big hands lifted him up, and he saw Fleur lying on the ground, silent, and from the conversation just now, Fleur should not have been killed.

"Bang-"

Harry was tossed upwards and slammed into a cloud of stuffed things, black soft/mao/sao/ messing with Harry, they were very smooth, like human hair, but Harry knew it was the back of the eight-legged spider that had been controlled by the Imperius Curse.

After a while, there was another "bang", and Fleur, who was tied up like him, was also thrown up, and she closed her eyes tightly and fainted.

"Fleur...... Hibiscus...... Hey...... Wake up......"

Harry called out quietly, he felt the huge spider beneath him start to move slowly, because it was lying on its side with its back to the front, he could only see behind him, he couldn't see what was happening in front of him, only occasionally he would hear loud noises and explosions, and then as the spider passed by, he would see the remains of some obstacles in the maze.

It's all swept away by Krum and Cedric, and it's a little hard to believe.

"Fleur ......"

Fleur's eyelashes trembled, her face turned pale, her brows suddenly tufted, and she said "hmm......", and suddenly opened her eyes, revealing a painful look.

"We ......"

She immediately noticed what was happening in front of her, and just in front of Harry she could see the scene in front of her, Fleur opened her mouth wide and screamed in panic.

"Shhhh

Harry hurriedly spoke, which made Fleur seem to come to her senses, as if she remembered what had happened before, her lips trembled slightly, the expression on her face was very painful, and she slowly closed her eyes as if she was going to pass out again.

"Fleur, do you have a way......?"

Harry moved, trying to break free of the rope, his Bondage Charm had worn off, but the rope was so tight that there was no room for his wrist to move

Fleur's long eyelashes twitched, and she slowly opened her blue eyes, which were full of indescribable exhaustion, and she shook her head weakly, and said to Harry:

"No...... I can't do it without a wand......" Her wand had been knocked away just now, and she didn't know where it had left in the labyrinth.

Harry was about to say something more, but he felt the spider beneath him stop, and then a huge force came, and he slowly floated up before falling heavily to the ground.

"Alright, here we are, the trophy you've been dreaming of, right?"

By the light of the Fluorescent Charm, Harry saw Cedric and Krum's feet, both of them standing in front of him, looking through the gap between them to see a trophy that shimmered with a seductive light, about a foot away from him.

"If you want to win the championship, you can take it-"

Harry furrowed his eyebrows, half of his face pressed to the ground, the corners of his mouth covered with sand, he didn't understand what Krum was thinking, if he wanted to win the championship, why not win the Triwizard Cup? Maybe he needs to give them an oblivion charm so that they forget all the dastardly things he's doing in the labyrinth?

"No, no, no, we have to take this trophy together."

A large hand grabbed the rope that bound him and lifted him up with all his might, and Harry straightened up with the strength of Krum, who came up and wiped the sand and dirt from the corners of his mouth.

"Are you crazy?"

This is Fleur's voice, she was also helped up by Krum, this time she is much calmer, her face is full of disappointment and sarcastic expressions, looking at Krum, it seems that he is teasing them when he says that everyone will take the top three cups together, obviously she also thinks that Krum has to give everyone an amnesia curse in order to hold the cup with peace of mind.

"It's good that you're hiding," Fleur continued, Harry had never seen her gaze so cold, like the moonlight tonight.

"I regret seeing you wrong, I'm a fool/gua, Krum - but you're even more of an idiot! Do you think the Triwizard Cup won in this way can be considered an honor!? Aren't you afraid that our memories will be restored and these things will be made public? You might as well kill me—if you have the guts! ”

Hibiscus? Dracule seemed to hate it, she bit her lip, it was about to burst, and her hoarse guttural voice revealed emotions that Harry couldn't understand.

Cedric watched it all with interest, and Krum seemed a little distressed, rubbing his forehead and holding out his hand to signal Fleur to stop

"Alright, alright...... Delacour, calm down, I didn't mean to win the Triumph Cup, now, all you need to do is cooperate, put your hands on this trophy with me, let's pick it up together, okay? ”

Krum tapped his wand as Harry felt half of the hemp rope that bound him go, and the sore legs and feet were finally free.

Do you want to turn around and run away?

As if sensing his thoughts, Krum smiled at him and shook the black wand in his hand

"Don't try to run away, I really don't want to give you two a One-Snatcher Charm, okay?"

He looked at Harry first, then turned his gaze to Fleur, who snorted coldly and stepped forward, as if to see what the hell Krum was up to, and slowly walked to the Triumvirate, where Cedric stood in front of her.

"Harry?"

Harry is fed up with all the inexplicable, so let me see what you're up to? Thinking to himself, he stepped forward as well.

"Good—"

With a satisfied smile, Krum walked slowly over to the top three, reached for Fleur's hand, and pulled her out of the hemp rope, but was quickly shaken off by Fleur.

"Don't touch me—"

To Harry's surprise, Krum actually smiled good-naturedly and turned to grab Harry, pumping one of his hands as well.

"Now let's take this trophy together—"

He winked at Cedric, who nodded, pressed Fleur's hand on the Triwizard Cup, and grabbed the trophy himself, while Krum and Harry did the same.

Harry felt a hook pull on his navel and his feet off the ground, but his hands couldn't take it back from the cup, it felt so familiar, and the next moment, he fell heavily to the ground, and his hand let go of the cup.

Where is this? The cries of night owls and crows, coming from the deep darkness, slowly stood up on their knees, Harry looked around at an overgrown cemetery, and could see the black outline of a chapel behind a tall yew tree on the right, and a hill on the left, and Harry could make out a delicate old house on the hillside.

They seem to have arrived in a place that has nothing to do with Hogwarts.
