Chapter Eighty-Six: The Third Event of the Six-Wizard Tournament

The success of the Night Mirror is of great significance to Harley.

Not only because it was one of the most powerful and extraordinary items on Harley's body, but more importantly, the magic mirror had the ability to control the spirit of the Night's Watch.

This not only meant that she had a stronger attack on souls when using the Night Mirror, but it also meant that Harley could directly control those souls who were not resisting.

In addition to those spirits in the spirit world who do not have much consciousness, the range of unresisting souls naturally includes the spirits made by Harley herself.

The day after the mirror was made, Hallie endured intense pain and broke five snakeheads again.

You know, strictly speaking, the mythical creature form is Hallie's ontology, and the human appearance can only be regarded as a manifestation of the mythical creature form.

So Harley breaking off the snakehead of her mythical creature is equivalent to doing it herself, digging up flesh from her own body and tearing pieces from her own soul.

The pain and the consequences of the mythical creature's injuries were enough to put Harley at risk of losing control.

However, Harley, who has broken so many snake hairs, can be said to be familiar with the road, and will not be shaken by this pain at all, and will not even snort.

As for the usefulness of these five snake hairs, it is naturally combined with various materials and spirit powder that Harley has collected from the spirit world in the past to make an artificial spirit body that has a certain connection with Harley's mythical biological form.

After these spirits were integrated into Harry's wand clones, flesh and blood like real people, and the ability to think independently, they were born.

However, these clones are not so safe and secure, after all, they are controlled by artificial spirits, although they are connected to Harley's mythical biological form, but these connections are not so close.

As the distance between the doppelganger and the ontology becomes farther and farther away, this connection will gradually fade, and even tend to be non-existent indefinitely.

Therefore, if these clones are out and about for a long time, they are likely to be "weakened" or "able to think for themselves".

The former will affect Hallie's plans, while the latter is more likely to cause damage to Hallie's body.

So Hallie definitely can't allow this to happen, and the creation of the Night Mirror is very necessary at this time.

With the help of the Night Mirror, Harley placed more restrictions on the arrangement of these spirits, and exercised a deeper level of control over the spirits, as much as possible to ensure that there would be no such a bad situation as "the clone stabbed the main body".

As for the role of these clones, they were naturally sent by Harley all over the world to find auxiliary materials for making Calamity Witch Potion.

The location of these auxiliary materials is not difficult to find, after all, the approximate range of their growth can be inferred from the nature of their extraordinary properties.

As a material for a Sequence II potion, although it is only a secondary material, there are definitely some dangers in its origin.

However, these are within an acceptable range for Harley, who has the strength of Sequence 5 and can borrow the strength of Sequence 4 from the body at any time.

As for the promotion ceremony of the Witch of Calamity, Harley also has a person to be sacrificed to.

So she was sure that she would probably end this semester, and at the end of the next semester at the latest, she would have the hope of becoming an angel on earth.

…………

The Easter holidays have passed almost in the blink of an eye, and the third event of the Final Six is just around the corner.

In the last week of May, the five Warriors gathered together at eight o'clock in the evening at eight o'clock in the evening.

At this time, the Quidditch pitch was no longer smooth and flat, but had become unrecognizable.

It was as if there was an extra Muggle mansion, and the higher the floor, the narrower it became.

Once again, Ludo gladly accepted Crouch's request and volunteered to come to Hogwarts to take on the task of introducing the Warriors to the game.

"Hello, warriors, it's been a long time since we saw each other!"

Ludo was still in the same loud voice, and waved his hand at everyone with joy.

Harley was keenly aware that Ludo's raised left hand had an extra solid gold ring encrusted with red gemstones.

The craftsmanship of that ring is probably derived from the fairies, and its material is good, so it must be worth a lot of money.

Harley vaguely remembered the last time she saw Ludo, he wasn't so wealthy, and his robes had to be worn out.

As for the last time Ludo was so rich as he is now...... Looks like before the Quidditch World Cup in England?

I don't know what happened in the meantime.

However, Harley was not interested in Ludo's financial situation, and just quietly listened to the referee's briefing on the game.

“…… Thanks to the cooperation of the Ministry of Magic and the magic schools of various countries, the competition has been going smoothly, and at this time it has officially come to the last project. ”

After Ludo finished speaking for a long time, he finally got to the point,

"Alright, now let's get down to business."

"The third event of the competition is related to the building in front of you, so guess what it is?"

There was silence in the scene, and the warriors just watched Ludo's one-man show, and no one spoke.

However, Ludo did not feel embarrassed, but grinned and asked himself,

"That's right, I think almost everyone should have guessed the right answer in their minds. The final event of the Big Six Tournament is none other than the Labyrinth! ”

"For this huge labyrinth, our Ministry of Magic has mobilized a lot of staff and spent a long time to make it."

"There are nine floors above and below the labyrinth, six above ground and three underground."

"The entrance is on the first floor, and there are six entrances in total."

"On the day of the game, you will choose the entrance according to the level of your score, and the warrior with the highest score will have the right to choose."

"And the order of time to enter the maze is the same, and the warrior with the highest score will enter the maze first."

"The time gap between the two warriors entering the maze will be converted according to the size of the score difference and a certain proportion."

"As for the trophies, the Saffe Championship Trophy is at the top of the maze."

"You can only win the Final Six Championship if you get the trophy and bring it out."

"In that case, why do you want to set up a labyrinth with three underground floors?" Catherine raised her hand and asked,

"Also, if someone touches the trophy first, will the other warriors just sit back and watch as they bring it home?"

"Or ...... Are the Warriors allowed by the rules to snatch trophies? ”

"Good question!" Ludo applauded, "I've been waiting for one of you to ask this question!" ”

"Let's start with the first question. The Ministry of Magic has prepared many difficulties in the labyrinth, including but not limited to magical traps, more dangerous magical beasts, and magical plants. ”

"At the same time, the material of the labyrinth is very strong, and magic has been applied. After testing by the Ministry of Magic, the average Auror would need to use at least twenty-five shattering charms to break through the walls of the labyrinth. ”

"This means that in the vast majority of cases, you can only get trophies if you find the right path and overcome the many difficulties along the way."

"Note, however, that I'm talking about the vast majority of cases."

"There are at least three portkeys on each level of the labyrinth, and these portkeys are ready to be activated at any time."

"The direction in which the portkeys lead is not consistent, the only thing that is certain is that the portkeys will never lead to other locations on the same floor."

"So with any luck, the Warriors might be able to find the key to the top six trophies from the basement level."

Ludo paused deliberately, then burst out laughing, as if he had told a funny joke.

But seeing that no one agreed, his laughter gradually stopped, and he rubbed his nose with his hand,

"Well, kidding aside, I don't know where these keys are located, their exact shapes, or where they lead."

"After all, the portkey was proposed by Barty Sr. He was the only one who could come up with such a complicated way to play, after all, the International Department of Magical Cooperation had to deal with the portkey thing every day......"

Harley's eyebrows were slightly raised, and her heart moved, and something suddenly came to mind.

“…… As for our dear Minister of Magic, Fudget Turgeon, he has left the work of arranging the portkeys to the Department of International Magical Cooperation, and will be led by Old Barty. ”

Ludo waved his hand,

"That's why the lower three floors of the maze exist, to give more opportunities for the warriors who start later, and also to add fun to the game."

"As for the question of whether the trophy can be snatched...... Of course, you can snatch it. ”

"The Six Wizard Tournament never prohibits this kind of behavior, the golden eggs of the first project can be snatched from each other, and the map provided by the mermaid in the first part of the second project can also be snatched."

"Of course, the trophy in the third event can be snatched."

"Okay, do you have any more questions?"

Seeing that the warriors had no more questions, Ludo nodded,

"Then please do your best. As for the rules, we'll post them in the foyer on the first floor of Hogwarts Castle when the time comes, so that no warrior will forget. ”

"You can go back now."

The warriors quickly dispersed and walked in their respective directions.

Harley and Fleur are ready to go back to the Room of Requirement to discuss the competition before returning to their dorms and school quarters.

But Ludo catches up and seems to want to say something to Hallie:

"Hallie, please wait a minute...... Do you have time? Can we go a little further and talk alone? ”

But Harley simply rejected him:

"I'm sorry, I don't think there's anything too private between us, even so secret that I need to avoid my best friend Fleur."

"Oh, okay." Ludo's face was visibly disappointed,

"I just wanted to cheer you up as an elder and Hogwarts alumnus, you know, I've always had a good relationship with Sirius."

"So how? Are you sure you will be the first to win the trophy in the last event? ”

"Of course." Hallie's eyebrows raised slightly,

"Fleur and I both have the confidence that we can beat the other warriors and win back the glory of the Final Six for the school."

"To be precise, every warrior will not lack the courage and ambition to win the championship. You say yes, Fleur. ”

"Of course." Fleur put her hands behind her back and looked at Ludo with a little dissatisfaction,

"If you don't even have the goal of winning the championship, then why do you want to compete?"

"I'm not like the soft-footed shrimp of the French national Quidditch team, the goal is to qualify for the qualifiers and make it to the group stage."

"Oh, well, I took the liberty of it." Ludo sincerely apologized, but there was a hint of joy in his eyes that could not be concealed,

"I'm very sorry, Miss Delacour. Then I wish you both the best of luck in the race. ”

Looking at Ludo's back as he quickly moved away, the smart Fleur frowned:

"Ludo Bagman, what do you mean by that? As a referee who has been involved in the design of the project from start to finish, would he like to chat with you alone? ”

"It's a very sensitive situation in any event...... Wait, he can't be trying to cheat, right? ”

"Who knows?" Hallie turned her gaze back,

"I had a feeling that something was wrong with this Ludo...... Wait a minute, I seem to remember something......"

Harley rubbed her forehead and pulled back from her memory a small incident before the Quidditch World Cup final in England, and realized what she had overlooked.

She had just remembered that Ludo seemed to have invited Sirius to take a gamble.

"I kind of know what he wants to do with me alone." Harry's face was a little strange, and she explained to Fleur,

"This is a gambling dog who can't die well, he shouldn't have much capital, and he likes to sit in the bank."

"I seriously suspect that he has opened another betting market for the Final Six Tournament, and is preparing to artificially reveal information to me in order to kill the pig."

Fleur was stunned for a moment, and then couldn't help laughing:

"It's funny that you officials of the Ministry of Magic have such a hobby as the director of the Department of Magical Sports."

"It's not like you don't know how unreliable this group of people is." Hallie spread her hands,

"After all, this is England, and the Muggle world still retains queens and nobles, and the wizarding world values bloodlines the most."

"Based on this, you can probably guess who the high-ranking officials of the Ministry of Magic are."

The two walked and chatted, and at this time they had arrived near the Room of Requirement.

Ludo's question was left behind by the two, after all, it was just a gambling dog, and it was not worth spending time discussing.

In short, it would be good for Harley to play normally at that time, even if someone loses a lot of money because of Harley, what does it have to do with Harley herself?

Since ancient times, gambling and drugs have not been good to die!
