Both centaurs have stated in advance that they will not provide any help to the warriors, and that it is nonsense to help them solve magic with divination or something.

But Harley wasn't surprised.

Even if you really wanted them to help break Professor Dumbledore's magic, wouldn't it be embarrassing?

This is equivalent to Voldemort saying to Lucius, the head of the logistics department who is responsible for providing funds, you go and get rid of Dumbledore for me.

It's really Big Ben to send couriers, open and send below, and I didn't dream of doing it!

If someone has that strength, why should they work for you? They'll just get rid of you!

The kind-hearted witch never embarrassed people, so she didn't lead the conversation in this direction at all.

Harry and Fleur parted at the intersection and followed the key in their hand in the right direction.

Ronan paced leisurely back to his home to admire his latest wreath.

Ferenze volunteered to accompany Harley to her destination, and by the way, she took her around the centaur village as a tour guide.

Along the way, ordinary centaurs kept poking their heads out of the surroundings and watching Harley curiously.

Many of them had a bit of hostility in their eyes, but they seemed to be afraid of something.

However, they were not so kind to Ferenze, who accompanied Harry.

Harley faintly heard a lot of swearing, and more than one centaur accused Ferenze of being a traitor and betraying the inspiration of the stars.

However, Ferenze didn't seem to care about this, and continued to chat with Harry.

The two talked about the ecology of the Forbidden Forest, the invasion of the Eight-Eyed Spider, and finally the life of the wizards in Hogwarts.

Ferenze still has some yearning for this, and seems to want to leave the Forbidden Forest to take a stroll and learn about the world of wizards.

Finally, Hallie asked casually, "By the way, Ferenze." Is there anything particularly worth visiting in the centaur village? ”

"Places to visit...... I think there's a place that's worth visiting, but it's also very boring to visit. ”

Without hesitation, Ferenze replied, "Speaking of which, that place is still called our holy place. ”

"Holy Land?" Hallie subconsciously continued to follow, "Why do you say that?" ”

"Our sacred place is the clearing at the entrance to the centaur village." Ferenze explained,

"The clearing seemed empty during the day, with no vegetation on it, and it was free to walk without touching anything."

"But at the brightest night, a tree will appear out of thin air in the clearing, a real tree that is pitch black all over the body."

"After divination, all the elders agreed that the clearing was a sacred place for the centaurs, and that the pitch-black tree was the sacred tree of our centaur race."

"Because the stars tell us that the tree is safe for us."

"And that tree does have a magical mystery. Whenever He appears, that time is theoretically the most suitable time for us to observe the enlightenment of the stars. ”

"But it's sad and confusing that we never succeeded in divination at that time."

"No, to be exact, we never did divination during that time period."

"Because every time our sacred tree comes out, in less than five minutes, we will all fall into a deep sleep."

"And when we wake up, the starlight always fades. In less than five minutes, the tree will revert to nothingness. ”

"It's very distressing for us, but we're not going to take the initiative to change it."

"Because we believe that it is a revelation from nature and the forest that we cannot divinate at that moment."

Harley couldn't help but nod, it seemed that the centaurs thought this tree was their sacred tree, and they were really right.

After all, light is taken literally, and the time when the starlight is at its most brilliant is most likely when the outer gods look at the earth and cast the most radiance.

And the scry of the horses is much more reliable than that of Professor Trelawney, in case the divination reaches an old ...... The consequences are absolutely unimaginable.

Therefore, it is not an exaggeration to say that this mysterious dark tree protects the entire centaur community.

But in that case, there are a lot of secrets in this big tree.

"Can I visit your shrine then?" Harley led the conversation step by step.

"Absolutely. We do not impose any protection on the Holy Land and do not prevent any foreigners from visiting. ”

Ferenze said with emotion in his voice, "After all, this is also the revelation that the stars bring us. ”

"We can observe the holy object in the Holy Land, the sacred black tree, in the ten minutes of wakefulness, but we have no right to interfere with it."

"Even according to the revelations that the stars and nature have told us, if a foreigner who is not a centaur can see this tree, then we cannot stop it."

"If this tree leaves voluntarily, then we have no right to look for it, otherwise we will turn our backs on nature and the stars."

For the time being, Harley remained skeptical of the miraculous shrines and relics that Ferenze had blown about.

After all, a bastard who is similar to a soothsayer will often have a bad brain because he is too superstitious about divination.

Of course, if it is those terrifying sequence one who only records the name on the mural, then their brains are not bad, but too good, and they have reached the level of wisdom and demons.

The man and the man soon came to the position where the golden stone was directing, and Ferenze stopped.

"Harley, you'll have to walk the rest of the way." Ferenze said apologetically,

"I won't go on with you."

"If you have time, you are welcome to visit our holy site."

"Okay, goodbye." Harley waved goodbye to Ferenze, then looked at the golden stone in her hand.

The golden stone seemed to have come to a special location, so it quickly floated into the air and bloomed with dazzling light.

At the same time, the big tree in front of him suddenly came to life, echoing the golden stone and blooming with the same brilliance.

The two rays of light collided in mid-air, emitting Dao magic fluctuations, as if some magic had been lifted.

A cottage slowly took shape in front of Harry, but the door to the hut was locked, and the whole house was filled with powerful magic.

Harley looked the house up and down, thinking that if she wanted to, the continuous black fireball could easily blast it away.

As for the other, more powerful means, it can destroy the house very quickly.

However, these violent methods were too easy to hurt Hermione in the house, so Harley was the first to rule them out.

There was also a table in the open space in front of the house, on which were placed two keys, one black and one white, and a roll of parchment.

Hallie stepped forward and opened the parchment.

There was nothing on it, but when I felt the glow of the golden stone, suddenly ink slowly seeped out.

Hallie always felt something familiar with the scene.

She suddenly remembered that this was not the way the journal made by Senior Riddle communicated with wizards?

Tut-tut, it seems that Professor Dumbledore did not hesitate to prostitute him for nothing, and did not pay Riddle a single royalty.

The ink was finalized and formed into a sentence:

"Good afternoon, Harley. Welcome to the level. ”

"You have three options: 1. Open the magic house directly with violence. The advantage is that it is fast enough and does not take a lot of brains, but the disadvantage is that there is a high chance of hurting Hermione inside. ”

"Second, use your superb magic skills to crack the magic on the house. The advantage is that it is safe enough, and the disadvantage is that it is a bit brain-consuming and will take a long time. ”

"After all, I'm still quite confident in my magic attainments, and I don't have any magic left on the house that is easy to crack."

"By the way, Miss Granger has only enough food left in the house for a day."

"3. Solve the puzzle I gave you, and choose the corresponding key according to the answer to the puzzle."

"The advantage is that you are stable enough in this way, and the disadvantage is that you have to have a high IQ and enough logical ability."

Harley couldn't help but roll her eyes, as if she remembered an old man smiling wickedly as he typed a puzzle into the parchment.

She did not hesitate and knocked on the "three" with her wand.

The ink quickly dissipated and then resurfaced to form entirely new words.

"Question:"

"Now there are five wizard hats, two white and three black, and three young wizards at the same time."

"The three little wizards lined up in front of each other, each wearing one of the five wizarding hats."

"The little wizard in front can't see the color of the little wizard's hat in the back, but the little wizard in the back can see the color of the little wizard's hat in front."

"Now a professor asks them if they know what color their hat is."

"The last little wizard said he didn't know, and the penultimate little wizard said he didn't know."

"And the first little wizard suddenly guessed the correct answer after hearing the answers of the two people behind him."

"What color wizard hat is he wearing?"

Harley couldn't help but rub her forehead, is this a magic problem? Isn't this the most basic logical reasoning question?

But if you think about it, when Professor Dumbledore in the first year lays out the level and uses the Philosopher's Stone as bait to fish for Senior Riddle, the penultimate level seems to be arranged in this way.

At that time, a piece of parchment was placed on the table, and a similar thinking logic problem was laid on it.

Good, it's Dumbledore.

Hallie closed her eyes and thought for a minute, then tapped on the parchment and chose black.

"Are you sure?" The font on the parchment changes again,

"There is a hole in both keys of different colors, and the only way to complete them is to stuff a golden stone into the hole."

"And the golden stone will disappear automatically when you put it in, so you only have one choice."

"Of course." Harley reconfirmed, picking up the black key on the table and shoving the golden stone into the hole above.

Suddenly, the golden light flashed, and the key was repaired completely.

Harley inserted the key into the lock, and with a flick of the twist, the door opened.

A figure pounced out of it and gave Harley a hard hug: "Good afternoon, Harley!" I knew you weren't going to let me stay here for long! ”

It was Hermione in a beautiful dress.

It seems that the princess was waiting for her warrior to save her, and the warrior did not let her wait long.

……………

"We can see that Hallie has done most of the task. As long as you leave the Forbidden Forest smoothly, you can end the second round of the competition. ”

On the commentary platform on the edge of the Black Lake, Ludo has not even eaten until now, and is still working hard to explain.

At the same time, his face was full of excitement, and he kept waving his fists vigorously, as if something big had just happened.

"And Miss Delacour only needs to solve the puzzle on the paper to see her treasure."

"But everyone else seems to have a little problem, so let's keep cheering them on!"

At this time, although the other three warriors have already left the Black Lake and entered the Forbidden Forest, the situation is still not optimistic.

Miguel was a little dazed at this point, because a ball bird accidentally landed on his head, and as a result, the bird with a low IQ and little courage frightened itself out.

The bird then began to run in all directions, only to escape with its claws gripping Miguel's hair and apparition with him.

So when Miguel finally got rid of the ball, he was completely lost in the depths of the Forbidden Forest.

Luckily, Castrobusche itself is a school built in the rainforest, where every year students get lost.

As a result, many anti-getting spells are a must for Castrobusche, and Miguel has his own knack for finding his way through the rainforest.

And Krum somehow, inexplicably, got entangled in a swarm of Billy Wigg worms.

These little ones fly fast and can easily dodge most of the magical flames.

And most of the dark magic mastered by Krum is a single attack, so there is no way to take this group of Billy Wig worms, so he can only use the physical fitness of the Seeker to run all the way.

When he finally got rid of the entanglement of the Billy Wig worm, he unfortunately encountered a venomous leopard.

Not...... I can only wish him good luck.

Catherine's journey was not smooth, as she was confronted by a dangerous poisonhorn shortly after entering the Forbidden Forest.

At this time, a man and a beast are facing each other, and the exploding horn of the poison horn is pointed at Catherine, who is also holding a pistol made of alchemy, and the alchemy bullets fired from it will produce a violent explosion.

As for the Tsuchigomon Harumi...... Oh, he's still playing the repechage, so there's probably no chance of making an appearance.

This made the referees extremely worried to watch, and at the same time couldn't help but wail.

In this round, Hogwarts probably took the lead again, and even Beauxbatons was no threat to it.

Seeing that the trophy of the Six Wizard Tournament is getting farther and farther away from my school, damn it!

…………

Harley leaves the centaur village with Hermione as the two exchange what they saw and heard from the second project.

“…… I didn't expect Professor Dumbledore to come up with such a logical question, it's a pity that I'm not a warrior and can't solve these puzzles. ”

Hermione looked a little regretful, but then excitedly chatted with Harley about being approached by Professor McGonagall last night.

The two of them wandered all the way to the outskirts of the centaur village, where the Thestrals were standing in the clearing outside.

Harley took a special look at the location of the sacred tree that Ferenze had told her about, but found nothing.

It seems that I can only wait for the starry night to come again, but I don't know which way this big tree is, it is so magical.

Soon, Fleur leaves the centaurs' village with Gabrielle on her face.

"Why did Professor Dumbledore come up with such a simple question?" Fleur sighed as soon as they met,

"I wonder if Professor Dumbledore is insulting my intelligence!"

Harley looked at Fleur with some curiosity:

"What did Professor Dumbledore give you?"

Fleur thought about it and memorized the title word for word:

"A wizard went to the potions shop owned by his good friend to buy potion materials, and bought a total of thirty gold galleons...... Does he owe his friend a gold galleon? ”

"If you owe it, choose the black key; If there is no owe, please choose the white key. ”

"Are you saying Professor Dumbledore is underestimating my IQ?"

"I don't owe it." Hermione replied without thinking, "It's so much easier than Harry's." ”

"yes, I don't owe it when I think about it." Fleur expressed her support, "That's why I said Professor Dumbledore looked down on me." ”

"By the way, what was the puzzle that Hallie got it?"

The two sides exchanged topics, but they didn't know that the audience outside had already begun to quarrel.

Nearly a quarter of the students thought that the answer was set incorrectly and that the wizard should be in debt.

A full quarter of the students have gotten themselves into it on their own, and they haven't figured it out yet.

So the students broke out into an extremely fierce quarrel, and no one could convince anyone.

Even Michiman Kamo expressed puzzlement:

"Headmaster Dumbledore, why isn't that wizard in debt? I think he owes his friend thirty gold Galleons! ”

Professor Dumbledore glanced suspiciously at Hormo Daoman next to him, not knowing for a moment if he was pretending to be stupid or if he was really so stupid.

Sure enough, the logic education of wizards all over the world needs to be strengthened urgently!
