Chapter 448 Sphinx

Fortunately, the fireworks for help were hung on the warrior's waist, and after losing his wand, Fleur had to release the fireworks for help. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

The audience was in an uproar, and not long after the game began, a warrior was completely disqualified from the competition, and the fierceness of the competition can be imagined.

Krum also encountered a snail, and there were quite a few snails in the maze, and Hagrid raised a large group of snails, and after they killed each other, there were still more than a dozen huge monsters over ten feet in size, and they were all placed in this maze.

The snail in front of Krum resembled a giant scorpion, its long sting coiled on its back, its thick armor glistening in the glow.

Unlike Cedric's escape, Krum took it in stride, using a very useful dark magic to make the snail ineffective in an instant. The snail only had time to spew out a flame before it didn't have the strength to strike, allowing Krum to leave from it.

"It's supposed to be the dark magic that creates weakness. George watched Krum's shot and guessed.

Deep-tailed snails are specially cultivated creatures by Hagrid, they are large in size, but they are not fully developed on their own. Weak spells can cause them to collapse internally, making the tail snails, which are difficult for normal magic to deal with, vulnerable.

Krum seemed to be very good at dealing with the maze, and he made his way around one fork in the road, one trap after another, and made his way quickly to the center of the labyrinth.

"Krum is already number one. The students in the stands began to make noise again.

"I knew Krum was going to win, he was the best player in Quidditch. One of Krum's admirers immediately defected to his school's position and defected to Krum's camp.

"Why don't you hurry up Harry. Some people can't help but complain.

"Cedric, Cedric—" The Hufflepuff student sighed, and Cedric had just run in the wrong direction in a panic to avoid the tail snail, and was much behind the other two.

On screen, Harry wasn't slow, he walked cautiously, but he rarely made mistakes, and even when he hit a dead end, he was able to turn around immediately.

Although he didn't plan to win the race, he continued to move forward at a constant pace, step by step.

Krim was fast all the way, he turned all the way, he unlocked the trap, and he was almost to the center of the maze.

In the midst of the students' agitation, he finally encountered a problem that he had to stop.

A behemoth stood in the way of the center of the labyrinth, a creature familiar to people, and it was the Sphinx. It is the famous Sphinx, a sphinx from Egypt that has been used by sorcerers to guard their precious objects and secret places.

The Sphinx are very intelligent animals and they love riddles and anagrams. But when they're guarding things, they can become very dangerous.

The Sphinx's body resembles a lion with amplification magic, and it has the head of a woman, huge claws, a long yellow tail, and a tuft of hair at the tip of the tail.

Standing in the way of the labyrinth, it asked Krum a question, "You're close to your goal." Just find a way to get past me. ”

It walked up and down the passage, blocking its path, and said.

"Unless you can answer my riddle, you will never pass, you only have one chance, and if you guess the answer once, I will let you go right away. If I guess wrong, I'll pounce on it right away. If you don't answer, I can let you go away without hurting you."

Krum ignored the Sphinx's words, he took a few steps back and left the passage, crouching down and hiding in a bush.

There was an uproar in the stands, and the Hogwarts students shouted loudly, "He's too cunning, he can't answer the question, so he just hid, is he planning to sneak up on the warriors coming from behind?"

"Who said Krum couldn't answer the question, he didn't even listen to the question, he just didn't want to answer. Durmstrang's students immediately defended their warriors, understanding the reaction to Krum.

It's much easier than answering the Sphinx, there's only one chance, and who knows what questions the Sphinx will ask, the Sphinx aren't foolish monsters. Obviously waiting for others to test it, thinking about how to deal with it, is the best way.

George is also quite in favor of Krum's choice, and it is always good to plan and then act. An attempt at chance, only a fool who relies on luck will try his luck. Otherwise, I'd rather take a different path and choose another way, and it's better to take the risk.

Not only did Krum choose well, but so did his luck, and the luck-dependent fool soon came.

Harry and Krum followed the same path, and although he walked slowly and cautiously, the few mistakes left him enough time to make his way to the Sphinx.

"You're pretty close to your goal. Just answer my question and I'll let you go. The Sphinx said in a low, hoarse voice.

It stared at Harry with its huge eyes and said, "You only have one chance, and if you guess the answer once, I'll let you go right away." If I guess wrong, I'll pounce on it right away. If you don't answer, I can let you go away without hurting you."

"Let's talk about it. Harry didn't care about the trophy, so he didn't care about the Sphinx's question of whether he could answer it or not.

The Sphinx sat down on her hind lap, in the middle of the road, and chanted.

"Think about what kind of people always wear masks, act secretively, and lie a lot. Tell me what is always sewn and mended, the middle of the middle, the tail of the tail? Now connect them together and answer me, what is the animal you wouldn't want to kiss?"

Harry just felt like his brain was getting mixed up, and that's when he started to miss Hermione, her best game. If Hermione had been there, she would have been able to guess the riddle soon.

Still, he turned his mind and tried to analyze the answer behind the riddle.

"With a mask," he said to himself, glaring at the Sphinx, "always lying...... Belch...... That's the imposter. No, that's not my answer!

"What's next is always sewn and patched, and in the middle of the middle, the words that are often said when I can't think of words, spy...... er...... spy...... er, the animal I don't want to kiss...... It's spider!
