Harry Potter’s Book of Sin

Chapter 245 The Girl in the Starry Night

The related research on ancient Runes shows that the eight eyes of the eight-eyed giant spider represent the number "8"; the two golden horns of the horned beast represent the number "2"; the salamander can only survive six out of the flames. Hour, so its existence represents the number "6".

In fact, a simple mathematical problem is hidden in this oil painting about eight-eyed giant spider predation.

"...Look, four eight-eyed giant spiders are preying on a horned camel, and their target is also three passing salamanders." Fleur was explaining her to Hermione, "So, four times eight minus Go to two, subtract three and multiply by six... The answer should be '12'!"

But in fact, Hermione actually didn't want to talk to her about this Triwizard Tournament. From the very beginning, there was no such thing as a "champion". It was a chaotic multi-party duel.

"There is also a net bag with an eight-eyed giant spider," Hermione calmly corrected. "We don't know what's in it, but it must also be prey. That represents the unknown! In Rune, the unknown symbol... …"

"...Represents the number '7'." Furong turned her head to look at the oil painting again, her mouth moved again, but in the end she nodded slightly.

At this moment, Hermione was holding a slate with the simplified symbol of the five-legged beast that represented the number "5".

For the little wizard who has studied ancient magic in school, there is no obstacle to solving this little puzzle. It is more testable, in fact, it is the flexibility of thinking when using knowledge.

Furong must have seen the spider's web bag, but she could not think of the relevant knowledge even if the hint was sufficient.

It stands to reason that Furong on weekdays will not be invisible, but today she...

It seems a little out of state.

In the next few puzzles, Hermione's solution was surprisingly fast. While Fleur was surprised, the elegance at the beginning seemed to slowly fade away.

Between the two girls, a strange tacit understanding gradually developed between them. The dialogue between them became less and less.

Usually Hermione briefly explained the process of solving the puzzle, and then Fleur nodded, and let Hermione clear the obstacles and the two of them moved on.

The atmosphere between the two becomes more and more weird.

Until Hermione noticed, Furong's expression began to grow gloomy, and she finally nodded secretly as if she had confirmed something.

In the entire underground tower, Harry was advancing steadily and without danger, Hermione and Fleur were unimpeded all the way, only Lockhart, who was disguised as Maca, moved away from the target floor.

"...I don't know what's going on." Ron sat in the viewing seat, looking at the green flames underneath, feeling a little empty in his heart unconsciously.

He did not have the opportunity to participate in this three-final match, this is always a hole in his heart.

The whole audience is very lively. Everyone is discussing who will win. Although the supporters are different, when it comes to championships, most people actually assume that Maca is the only candidate.

His performance in the top three is actually not eye-catching, but who makes his current reputation too loud?

A wizard who managed to break through the World Cup finals but remained silent at the Ministry of Magic has long been a daily topic among wizards and wizards.

Many people even thought that he might be related to the Death Eaters.

Of course, no wizard has publicly published any relevant arguments about the "Return of Voldemort".Regardless of whether you have made similar guesses, it turns out that you actually don't want to think about this possibility at all.

Even if it was almost plainly placed in front of everyone.

"It's just the resurrection of the Death Eaters' remnant party. The British Ministry of Magic is not in a hurry. Why are we so anxious?"

Although these are just some of the public’s ideas,

But who knows that, as the only candidate for the championship, "Maca" has gone wrong from the beginning; and Hermione, who most people don't care much about, is racing along the way with Fleur, who has always underperformed.

To be honest, according to the current age, only Harry is the most normal person.

The game time is passing bit by bit, but there is no time limit for this third event.

In any case, as long as the championship has not been decided, the game will continue, unless the four Warriors actively or passively abstain, Bagman will truly end the game.

In the main guest bench where the judges were, only Dumbledore was looking down calmly. His sharp vision seemed to penetrate the platform and see everything the warriors under the ground faced.

...

"Torn apart!"

On a certain level underground, Hermione and Fleur encountered a combat level.

In this level, the two girls both demonstrated extraordinary strength, perfectly repelling several movable armors, and almost at the same time jumped into the magic flame guarded by those movable armors.

The two have gone through more than ten levels together.

Most of these levels are not difficult, and occasionally a few more strenuous ones are also overcome by Hermione.

When they passed the floor again, as the magic flame in front of them disappeared silently, a heat wave suddenly hit the two of them head-on.

The room on this floor is full of flames at a glance, and the hot tongue of fire rises from the ground, almost licking to the ceiling.

After a short while, beads of sweat were oozing on their foreheads.

"The chill is like ice."

Hermione immediately cast a freezing spell on herself. She glanced at Fleur next to her, and then stepped into the fire without hesitation.

The full flames quickly swallowed her, and within a few breaths, she disappeared.

Furong seemed unwilling to lag behind, she also drew a gourd in the same way, cast a freezing spell on herself, and then hurriedly broke into the flames to chase Hermione's footsteps.

Once you enter the sea of ​​fire, you will find that the flames are not completely connected.Although I can't see anything else after removing the flame at a glance, there are still some gaps in the middle.

Hermione was the first to walk in front, her feet decisively and smoothly, as if she knew where to go, without stopping for a moment.

But Furong did not have time to keep up, just for a few seconds at first, she never found Hermione again.

The two went one after the other, but the direction they chose quickly deviated.

Freeze spell does not last long on itself, and there are some negative effects of slow movement.In such a large sea of ​​flames, you have to make up for yourself from time to time to ensure you can stay active in the flames for a long time.

In addition to the effect of freezing small creatures, freezing spells can also be used to avoid fire.If side effects are not to be discussed, its fire avoidance effect is actually better than the fire-proof and moisture-proof curse.

The flames that are enough to cause severe burns, and even death, can only make the caster produce a little tingling.As long as the whole person is not always engulfed in ordinary flames, there will be no problems.

After all, the flames in nature consume oxygen when they burn, and wizards naturally need to breathe.

After a while, the flames in front of Hermione suddenly changed in color, and this had found the right exit to the next floor.

However, strangely, she did not step into it, but pointed at the ground and stretched out the magic wand in her hand.

"Thunderbolt exploded."

Almost at the same time as the incantation was chanted, a blast spread throughout the entire floor level.

Furong, who was still searching for exits elsewhere, suddenly turned her head, her gloomy eyes looked straight in the direction of the explosion.

She could even vaguely see that the flames where Hermione was located suddenly burst, causing a sea of ​​flames to rise.

In the next second, Hermione stepped into the green flame and left the tumbling layer of the heat wave.

No one knows what the meaning of the spell she casts is, but her behavior is clearly showing Furong the way.Could it be that she was just expressing kindness to Furong?Or, is it because she is a very kind girl?

There are only two people who understand the meaning contained in her behavior.

One of them is already deep in the mountains and forests of Albania, dealing with the ancient tombs of the underground palace; while the other is sitting in the center of the guest seat at this time, watching with his wise blue eyes calmly what he can Everything seen.

The night gradually became deeper and seemed to interpret the coming of darkness.

The trees in the forbidden forest in the distance were swaying new branches with the breeze, and there were waves of leaves, but it was unreal in the night.

Occasionally there are owls cooing, bringing a slight breath of life to this slightly dull night sky.

It was under this night sky, somewhere in an empty corner of Hogwarts, a young girl was still doing research on the preparation of the potion without expression.

She didn't care about the Triwizard Tournament that had reached the final moment, or that she didn't notice any Triwizard Tournament at all.

In her eyes, only the crucible in front of her is the object that needs attention.

When everyone was excited for the top three, there was a sudden rustle in the corner where she was. There seemed to be a new change in the liquid medicine in the cauldron.

At this moment, with a sound of "poof", the lid of the crucible jumped.

"Unicorn Horn Powder, 0.1 oz."

She lifted the lid cautiously, and poured a little bit of golden powder that had been prepared into the crucible with light blue smoke.

Immediately afterwards, a cloud of purple-black smoke that made people unable to look away skyrocketed, and there was still a little bit of crystal flashing in it, reflecting the starlight in the sky.

The girl took off the wide-brimmed and pointed wizard hat on top of her head, and her white hair poured down, making her pure eyes more clear and clear.

In those eyes, a faint trace of hope appeared, and it flashed past.
