Chapter 925： When the savior is not open

I don't know if it was because Albert didn't keep the three of them secret, or if other students saw them diving in the lake.

In short, news of Albert's diving in the lake quickly spread through Hogwarts Castle.

When everyone speculated that this matter was related to the second project, the secrets in the golden egg were secretly leaked. They are well known to everyone. Mermaid songs are no longer secrets. Now everyone is most curiously owned by the warriors. Who will the baby be?

Someone on the black market of Hogwarts opened bets because of this, and it is said that all guesses can get ten times the odds.

The second event of the Triwizard Tournament was unknowingly displayed in front of everyone. Many students suddenly realized why they often saw Krum swimming in the Black Lake. It turned out that this Durmstrang warrior has always been Preparing for the next game.

As for Albert, he was undoubtedly ready, and he even found the mermaid village directly.

In fact, the students at Hogwarts didn't even know that mermaids still lived under the Black Lake. After learning the news, there were many rumors related to mermaids in the school.

According to the information leaked by Fred and George, the mermaid village is well hidden by the water plants. It is not easy to find it. The warriors need to pass through the lush areas of the water plants, and there is often Grindelrow in the water plants. Sneak attack on passers-by.

The Weasley twins have used their own experience to tell the other warriors that if they are not prepared, they are easily surrounded by a large group of Grindillo, and one may even be dragged into the lake and drowned if they are not careful.

Many people are now worried about Harry Potter’s safety and that he will drown in the second project, because they save others by themselves, they don’t think they can accomplish the feat of saving people, especially when I heard that Krum Flower I haven’t been able to find the specific location of the mermaid village for more than a month, so I am even more sure about this possibility. Let alone saving people, dare to save people in this spooky weather. It’s still a big problem. Don’t need people to save them. It's already pretty good.

Draco Malfoy of Slytherin College even made a bet with others, claiming that Harry Potter needed someone to rescue him as soon as he was in the water, and mocking Harry would freeze to death or freeze to death if he stayed underwater for five minutes. Drown.

For this reason, Ron did not hesitate to "borrow a lot of money" from Harry, saying that he would make a big bet with Malfoy, betting on whether Harry will drown in the second project and whether he can successfully rescue the hostages and complete the task.

Malfoy was not stupid, so naturally he refused to bet with Ron, but he still had a hardened bet, claiming that if Ron dared to bet that Harry won first place in the second event, he would bet against him with a large sum of money, and he still took it. The incident mocked the Weasley family as a group of poor ghosts.

However, to Malfoy’s surprise, the poor ghost Weasley somehow proudly said that he could bet with Malfoy that Harry won first in the second project, but Malfoy needed to give five times the amount. Odds, and also need to sign a magic contract, and he will come up with a thousand gallons as a bet.

Naturally, Malfoy was not to be outdone, and confronted Ron. However, when Ron said that he could bet in person to sign the magic contract, even if Malfoy was stupid, he realized that it was not easy. He quickly said, "I need to go back. "Think about it" as an excuse, closed his mouth and ran away griefly.

Since that incident, every time Ron met Malfoy on the road, he always asked the last sentence: How are you thinking about it?

Malfoy was so angry that his cheeks were almost twisted, and he almost fought Ron for this, but was stopped by Moody's passing by.

Ron ridiculed and disgusted Malfoy with this incident, and also let out a big breath of ill feeling by the way, maintaining a good mood for several days.

To be honest, Ron was actually curious about Albert's confidence that would allow Harry to easily get the first place in the second project?

Why is it said that it is Albert, and not the Weasley brothers?

Because the Weasley twins don't have a thousand gallons, even if you sell them, you won't be able to make up the money.

"It's a shame!" Ron sighed lightly.

If Malfoy agrees, it will be fine. If he wins the bet by then, he will definitely get a lot of Gallons, and Harry's second project can also be easily completed.

It's a pity that Draco Malfoy didn't have any brains to agree and agreed. What a pity.

"Although Malfoy is a bastard, that guy is not stupid. As long as you are not blind, you can see that there is a problem." Hermione was a little worried about whether Harry could successfully complete the second project. The current situation is not optimistic. She learned from the information she got from the Albert and Weasley twins that the water in Black Lake was very cold, the temperature was very low, and it was very deep. Even swimming takes a long time, not to mention Harry is not good at swimming. Although he has been practicing swimming recently, the situation is not much better. Most likely, Harry has not been able to find the mermaid village after the air in the head-bubble curse ran out.

Everyone’s concerns are not without reason.

"Or, ask Sirius, maybe Sirius would do something good?" Ron said to Harry who was silently copying the divination work.

"Sirius is not in the UK, he seems to have gone to Holland." Harry actually wanted Sirius to help him, but he sighed helplessly when he thought of the content of the letter received a while ago.

Ron and Hermione looked at each other and asked suspiciously, "What is Sirius doing in Holland?"

"I heard that Peter Pettigrew is in Holland, so he ran after Peter Pettigrew." Harry couldn't help but worry about Sirius's situation. Although he hated Peter and wanted to kill Peter, Harry cared more about Sirius's situation. Security Question.

Harry didn't want Sirius to be distracted by his own affairs, so he didn't write to his godfather at all recently.

However, Harry didn't know that with Albert's help, Sirius had become an enhanced version of Sirius Black. Peter should be worried now, not Sirius.

"Hermione, do you have a good idea?" Ron asked Hermione who was flipping through the books.

"No, I'm studying Albert's Warming Charm recently, and Harry should be able to come in handy." Hermione didn't know how Albert found the mermaid hut quickly, but she could be sure that the group of Grindillo should be. Obstacles left to students by the organizer.

"Grindillo is not difficult to deal with, but a large group of Grindillo, and it will become very troublesome if they are still in the water."

Ron put down the book in his hand and said to Harry, "Many spells don't work well in the water. Then try the obstacle spell recommended by Fred and George?"

"Lupin will come to Hogwarts this weekend and accompany me down to the Black Lake to find a mermaid village. By the way, I will see what trouble I will encounter." Harry said suddenly.

"Aren't you going to Hogsmeade?" Ron was a little surprised.

"I think finishing the second project is more important than going to Hogsmeade." Hermione glared at Ron fiercely. "You have to be prepared. I'm worried that Harry won't be able to find the mermaid village and rescue your baby. Be careful to drown in the lake."

"Dumbledore will definitely not make people hostage." Ron shrugged, but he still thought Harry should try before participating in the second project. Although he didn't want to admit it, Albert did a lot of things. It all makes sense.

"Harry, you must be prepared before diving in the lake," Hermione urged earnestly.

"I see." Harry was a little annoyed. He found that his previous preparations didn't seem to be enough for him to pass the second project smoothly.

"Actually, even failure is nothing to be ashamed of," Ron said comfortingly. "After all, Krum failed to find the mermaid village for more than a month."

To be honest, Ron didn't think Harry could win the final championship unless Harry was so lucky that someone took the initiative to send the championship trophy to Harry.

"If there is really no way, you can ask Albert, I believe he is willing to give you a hand." Hermione's expectation of Harry is also to complete all competitions safely.

"Ok."

Harry replied noncommittal. If it was before, he would probably choose to complete the task alone, but Harry now has no courage to say that he can complete the task alone.

After all, Sirius helped him a lot in the first project, and the idea of ​​using the broom came from Albert.

Time is slowly approaching the second project. If there is any good news recently, it may be that the weather has begun to warm up. The weather wouldn't be as cold as before, but the water in Black Lake was still so cold that Harry didn't even have the thought of going to the lake.

To be honest, Harry was a little worried that he would freeze to death after diving in the lake.

It wasn't a joke. After reaching into the lake water for a while, the skin on his arm felt like a fire.

He felt that he needed a warmth curse to avoid freezing to death after diving in the lake.

When Harry went to see Albert a little awkwardly, Fred was told that Albert didn't know where he was going last night, and didn't come to the apparition class at all today.

"That guy is probably going on a date again."

"Dating?"

Hermione was in a daze, remembering that Krum had asked her to go to Hogsmeade a few days ago.

Because of Harry, Hermione refused.

Of course, Hermione’s impression of Krum was actually pretty good.

"Don't that guy need to practice Apparition?" Ron couldn't help asking.

It takes a gallon for a lesson.

That guy is really a waste.

"Of course not, Albert has mastered Apparition very early." Fred choked Ron out of a natural tone.

"Oh, Harry, are you going down to the lake to find the mermaid village?" George asked.

"Yes, I think I should prepare in advance. The second project is even more difficult than expected." Harry said dryly. "I heard that Albert would use the insulation charm, and I want to ask him for advice. "

"You said the heat preservation spell, this spell seems to be invented by Albert himself." George guessed the purpose of the three people looking for Albert, and he introduced, "This spell seems to be a variant of the drying spell. If you want to If you learn, I can teach you."

"He invented it himself?"

"Is it weird? I remember Albert invented a lot of spells." Lee Jordan, who had been holding back until now, finally found a chance to interrupt.

"There is a trick to the warmth spell, which is that the spell must be cast on the clothes." George introduced like the three of them. "If you wear a lot of clothes and use it directly, the effect of this spell will not be obvious. You probably are. Encounter this problem."

"Yes." Hermione nodded.

"You need to change your clothes and use a warmth spell on it. If you want to wear more, you can use this spell on your underwear. Of course, if you want to dive in the lake, it’s best not to wear too much, and it’s best Find someone to help you watch and avoid accidentally drowning or encountering danger."

After a brief discussion with Fred and George, Harry and Hermione quickly grasped the correct usage of the Warm Charm.

"Albert actually has a way to make Harry pass the game easily, right!" Ron suddenly asked.

After Fred, George, and Lee Jordan looked at each other, they shrugged and said, "We don't know this kind of thing. You have to ask Albert yourself."

Fred, George, and Lee Jordan would not leak the scuba case without Albert's consent.

"Ron!" Hermione frowned, feeling that Ron was rude to say this.

On the way back to the castle, Ron said to Harry and Hermione: "Albert must have a way to get Harry through the second project easily, otherwise he would definitely not gamble with Malfoy because of his personality. Don't do things that are uncertain."

"Is it easy to pass the second project?" Harry and Hermione looked at each other, thinking it was weird, but the possibility should not be low.

What will it be?

Harry racked his brains and couldn't figure it out. Of course he wanted to win the game easily.

However, there are some things that you can't even think of.

Harry would not deliberately ask.

At noon the next day, at the highest temperature of the day, after Harry and Lupin met by the Black Lake, the two were ready to dive in the lake together.

They stayed underwater for about twenty minutes and almost caught a cold.

"How is it?" Ron asked.

"Not so good, the bottom of the lake is very cold, it is not suitable for swimming in this way, and the swimming speed is also very slow." Harry went directly to the lake to dive without taking off his clothes, UU reading www. The uukanshu.com robe became very heavy after absorbing water, and the place where the hands and feet were not protected by the heat preservation charm was so cold that the hands and feet were cold. That feeling was really uncomfortable.

"It's not so good." Lupin frowned and realized that he couldn't help much at all. He pulled out his wand, and after removing the cold from his body, he helped Harry remove the lake and chill from his body.

"I feel that my hands and feet are almost unconscious. Maybe I need to prepare gloves for myself. It is best not to expose my skin to water. This should be able to keep warm." Harry felt that he might need some Muggles. The diving equipment, scuba can be replaced by bubble head curse, but the diving suit should be able to solve the problem of heavy water absorption and cold water in contact with the lake. It should also be faster when swimming.

To be honest, swimming under the lake is really slow and strenuous. He may need some aids.

Harry told Lupin his ideas, and Lupin also felt that Harry's ideas were correct, and said that he would help Harry get a Muggle diving suit before next week.

As for the championship of the Triwizard Tournament?

Harry just wanted to complete the task now, nothing more.
