Chapter 187 The Battle of the Demon Lake
Chapter 187 The Battle of the Demon Lake
"I should have found the captain's whereabouts..." Qiqi said in the team channel, because she was riding a horse-shaped water monster, her search speed was greatly increased, and she quickly found the big rock hiding the underwater passage.
Qiqi: I found a suspicious underwater passage, it is very wide, I think if the captain sees it, he will definitely go in and take a look!
Hagrid: Wait a minute, I see someone from the Department of Magical Law Enforcement getting into the water, heading towards you!
Qiqi was startled, and quickly rode the horse-shaped water monster into the aquatic plants beside her. She was hidden in the horse-shaped water monster's disguise, and no one could see it.
Yuqian finally got rid of the chasing of the horse-shaped water monster. Fortunately, Zhuobi also got out of the mirror, but he looked a little embarrassed. When they looked at it from a distance, there were indeed several black spots heading towards this water area from a distance. Come.
Zhuobi quickly cast a head-bubbling spell on himself, dived into the water, and hid in the aquatic plants with Yuqian. Yuqian pointed to the black spots with her finger and signaled "Follow them!" Zhuobi nodded quickly , the two hung far behind those people and swam towards the underwater passage.
The sky was getting dark, and it was time for dinner, but none of them, including Harry and many students, wanted to go back to the castle. They all stood on the high platform in the center of the lake very worriedly. First, Cedric second, Harry third, and Fleur fourth, but at least they all returned safely with their best relatives and friends, but Bai Lin has been in the water for nearly eight hours, but there is no news at all.
Dumbledore comforted everyone loudly, but the staff of the Ministry of Magic, under the order of the old Batty, banned anyone from entering the water on the grounds of "safety issues", but kept emphasizing that they had just sent a professional underwater search Team, went to the rescue, asked all the students and teachers to go back to Hogwarts Castle to wait, but no one would listen.
Both Hermione and Qiu Zhang were rescued from the water, and they were still wrapped in thick blankets at this time, but they refused to leave, they just grabbed the railing of the platform nervously, Qiu Zhang's tears flowed down, stuffed Derek was at a loss by the side (for some reason, although Cedric had successfully invited Qiu Zhang to be the dance partner of the Christmas ball at this time, he did not become a boyfriend and girlfriend with him).
"It must be all right...it must be all right..." Harry was also wrapped in a blanket, muttering on the railing, he couldn't help but look at Snape beside him, Snape frowned slightly, his face was cloudy .
"Professor, do you think...Kelin will be okay?" Harry couldn't help asking.
Snape said in a very affirmative tone: "If it's just the kind of difficulty you encountered... He should be able to easily win in 10 minutes. You know that he has personally caught Peter Pettigrew, and by the way Peter used it to kill him. The overlord octopus controlled by the Imperius Curse..." He paused, Harry keenly sensed Snape's hesitation.
Snape lowered his voice and said, "It seems that the Ministry of Magic... has increased the difficulty for him..."
"Like the first game? A more powerful monster was prepared for him?" Harry asked hastily.
Snape didn't speak, just stared at the still lake.Like him, Karkaroff seems to know more information, but he also stares coldly at the lake and refuses to leave, as if he is looking forward to something, maybe Bai Lin's triumphant return, maybe Bai Lin's cold corpse .
Harry obviously asked the wrong person, and someone else obviously knew the inside story. Hagrid, who had already reported the information to Dumbledore, came to the bushes on the east coast again. Now the forest is pitch black, and no one can see it. The half-giant dragged a large package directly from the bushes, and unfolded it by the lake, like an oversized seal skin. Hagrid got into it awkwardly, stretched his limbs, and looked like an aquarium. The publicist for the Seal Show - a fat guy in a seal puppet costume.
The seal Hagrid struggled to move on the shore, and finally rolled into the water.If Bai Lin was present, I would definitely give him a funny award. By the way, tell him that among the many marine creatures, seals are really not good at swimming, so they are hunted by killer whales and polar bears as regular food.
Underwater, Qiqi stood guard at the entrance of the dark underwater passage, waiting quietly, and after a while, she saw five people wearing black sharkskin diving suits, wearing head-bubble spells on their heads, and holding long swords in their hands. People with long poles swam over, and there was a bright underwater magic lantern at the end of their poles, illuminating the surrounding area like daylight.
Although Qiqi is not very familiar with the system and rules of wizards, she has a keen feeling for black wizards. When she saw the appearance of these five people, she felt that they were not good people.
The fact is also true, in the world of Harry Potter, if a wizard who often uses the three ferocious forbidden spells, or other black magic that kills and tortures people, will gradually be affected by black magic and become more bloodthirsty and crazy , the appearance will also tend to be ferocious and ugly.
This is why after Voldemort's first death, many Death Eaters claimed that they were affected by the Imperius Curse, thus avoiding punishment. The defendant's appearance and small movements can roughly infer whether he often uses evil black magic. If the other party has not used the three major forbidden spells and looks the same as ordinary people, then it is considered that he is not controlled by the Imperius Curse so what?Let it go if you can.
And the five people in front of Kiki's eyes obviously don't belong to the type of people who can be put away. These five people are old and young, and they seem to be descendants of Vikings. Everyone has messy red hair. There are tattoos all over the face of the person, which looks fierce and threatening. No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like someone who went into the water to save people.
Qiqi didn't dare to act rashly, but said in the team channel: There are five people in total, they should all be hateful dark wizards, they have already got into the underwater passage, they seem to know the captain's whereabouts.
After a while, Yuqian and Zhuobi had already arrived. They saw that Qiqi had tamed an adult horse-shaped water monster, and their jaws dropped, but Yuxi thought that Qiqi could also summon a sphinx on land. Si is used as a mount, so he is relieved, and it can be regarded as Qiqi's special function.
Although the horse-shaped water monster was not very willing, under Qiqi's coercion, Yuqian and Zhuobi also cooperated, and they carried the three of them into the dark underwater passage.
The underwater passage looks like a giant sea worm that forcibly drilled out of it, and it is washed quite smoothly by the back and forth water flow. There are some small underwater plants growing on the stone wall of the passage, which even emit some slight fluorescence when you look closely.
Yuqian and Zhuobi didn't dare to use "fluorescent flashes". The five black wizards tens of meters ahead were their guiding lights, so they just followed closely. And the black wizards were not unaware, they were just horse-shaped water monsters. The concealment is really good, as long as they swim slowly along the channel wall, they are basically silent, even if they turn around, it is difficult to find them.
But the problem of the black wizards still appeared ahead. Those black strange fish attracted by the blood of the sea snake seemed to smell the breath of humans, and swam over from the other side of the passage. When they saw the magic lanterns of the black wizards, they all sped up. Speed, and bite towards them.
Gu At this time, the three people behind knew what the long poles in the hands of the black wizards were for. They saw tiny electric lights emitting from those long poles, covering a range of more than ten meters in front at once. , as soon as the black strange fish approached, they were hit by the electric light, like being stabbed by a harpoon, and the severe pain made them flee quickly.
With them opening the way in front, the three people behind were happy and relaxed, but the passage was too long, and everyone felt that they might have swum out of the range of Hogwarts. Only Zhuobi had a special sense of distance and direction. The channel said: This channel is very strange... We are not taken very far by the channel, but it is getting deeper and deeper, at least to more than 200 meters underground, but the water pressure has not increased much. I guess the water body here also has magic...
Hagrid: I didn't want to say it at first... That passage is a little secret... It leads to the "Underground Magic Lake", the hometown of the Overlord Octopus. There has never been any book about it. I don't know how the Ministry of Magic knows about it. , it seems that they have prepared a trap for Kailin...
Yossie: That means we are in the right place, Kelly must be inside, let's keep up!The five people in front were definitely not here to rescue, but to kill!
Sure enough, after swimming for another 10 minutes, they found that the eyes suddenly opened up. The black wizards had clearly led them out of the tunnel and came to the underground magic lake.
The lanterns of the dark wizards attracted a lot of strange fish, but their electric shock rods were very effective, and the fish were scattered in a few strokes.
Qiqi: There is a strong smell of blood in the lake... There must have been a fierce battle here. With this amount of bleeding, the injured must be a big guy!
Yuxi: As long as it's not Kaili, thank God!
The horse-shaped water monster obviously still has some deterrent effect on small carnivorous fish. Those strange fish were scattered by the electric shock rod, but they did not dare to come to attack the three people in the back, but formed a threat to the two groups of people in the front and back from a distance. encirclement.
The five black wizards swam straight to the stone island in the lake, which saved a lot of trouble for the three people behind. They slowly surfaced, and Yuxi and Qiqi were immediately surrounded by people all over the sky (at the top of the grotto). The fluorescent plants were stunned, as if entering a magical space only in fairy tales.
"%^&*%" the first black wizard who swam out of the water cursed. He seemed to be their leader, a middle-aged man in his 50s. After swimming for so long, he would be exhausted. He walked slowly up the stone island with heavy steps, threw the long pole in his hand casually, and rubbed his waist.
"Labor and management will never come to this ghostly place again!" said the middle-aged black wizard. He watched four of his subordinates climb up to the shore one after another, and couldn't help cursing again, as if he thought the young man was so weak, how could he help The master has achieved great things and so on.
"Poor Eriksson, that old pervert, didn't he take his booty and go happy!" The middle-aged black wizard cursed and walked forward, but the big Viking man didn't come to greet him, which made him very unhappy .
However, when he stepped on a big rock, the situation of the small stone island became clear at a glance. Catherine was still tied to the stone pillar, but she was not still stabbing the knife mechanically, but her face was dull, and the dagger was caught. Throwing it at her feet, she staggered, as if she was still in a dream.
The bloody ax Ericsson, who was thrown into the lake and dismembered by fishes, was of course nowhere to be seen. The middle-aged black wizard didn't even notice Bai Lin not far from Catherine, because Bai Lin had turned into a stone sculpture, and because of the dim light , He blends in with the mottled ground of Shidao, very inconspicuous.
He didn't see the big Vikings, nor their target, which made the middle-aged black wizard startled for a moment. It didn't matter if he was a little surprised, Qiqi had already swooped out of the lake on a horse-shaped water monster, and landed at the end One of the black wizards didn't react immediately, and was slammed onto the ground by the horse-shaped water monster, biting one of his legs like a giant toothed crocodile's mouth.
The horse-shaped water monster was obviously very hungry, dragged the young black wizard and dragged it towards the lake. Qiqi and Yuqian jumped off the back of the water monster. A dark wizard who was closest to him just used the move "faint!"
The red magical energy accurately hit the unsuspecting black wizard, and suddenly he seemed to be hit by a high-voltage stun gun, and his whole body twitched and fainted.
Yuxi was greatly encouraged by the instant elimination of two enemies, but then they faced the counterattack of three black wizards.
"Hawada Kendawa!" The middle-aged black wizard who turned his head took out his wands without hesitation against the three people who came ashore, and cast Hawada Kedava.
The turquoise magic energy flew out, thanks to Qiqi's extremely agile movements, she threw Yuqian to the ground, and the magic energy shot directly at Zhuobi's body, but it was like a big hammer smashing one side The mirror, Zhuo Bi shattered into pieces like glass. It turned out that this was Zhuo Bi's substitute mirror.
And Zhuobi's real body has decisively hid behind a big rock. He is from the Black Witch Society. Although it is not an evil organization, Zhuobi is very clear about some of the behavior styles of the black wizards. In the scene where the moon is dark and the wind is high, if they don't make a move, they don't intend to leave anyone alive.
While falling to the ground and rolling, Qiqi pulled out the scimitar on her back, and threw it directly at a black wizard who was relatively close. The scimitar was like a boomerang, drawing a beautiful arc , Take the opponent's neck straight.
The black wizard was about to cast a killing spell on the two people on the ground, but the scimitar thrown over directly choked the spell, and released an "armor protection" on himself.
The scimitar was blocked by an armor-shaped light and bounced to the side, but Qiqi's goal had been achieved, she had taken Yuxi to hide in the shadow, out of sight of the dark wizards.
The scene in the movie where the magic is thrown away at will is actually extremely difficult in reality, and a person has only one life, so avoiding it and preventing the black wizard from having a chance to target it is the easiest way to deal with the death curse.
