Harry Potter's Book of Sin

Chapter 246



Studies on ancient runevin show that the eight eyes of the eight eyed giant spider represent the number "8"; The two golden horns of the horned camel represent the number "2"; The salamander can only survive six hours without fire, so its existence represents the number "6".

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

"... you see, four eight eyed giant spiders are preying on a horned camel, and their target is three passing salamanders." Furong is explaining to Hermione, "so four times eight minus two, and then three times six... The answer should be '12'

But in fact, Hermione didn't want to say much to her - there was no so-called "champion" in the top three competition from the beginning. It was a chaotic multi-party duel.

"There's also a web bag with eight eyes," Hermione corrected calmly. "We don't know what's in it, but it must be prey - it represents the unknown! And in rune, the unknown symbol..."

"... represents the number '7'." Furong looked back at the oil painting. Her mouth moved again, but finally she nodded gently.

At this time, Hermione was holding a stone slab engraved with the simplified symbol of the five legged beast - which represented the number "5".

For the little wizard who has seriously studied ancient magic literature in school, there is no obstacle to solve this little puzzle. What it tests more is the flexibility of thinking when using knowledge.

Hibiscus must have seen the spider's Web bag, but she didn't associate it with relevant knowledge - even if the hint was sufficient.

It's reasonable to say that the Hibiscus in weekdays can't be found, but today's she

It seems a little out of shape.

In the following several puzzles, Hermione's speed of solving was amazing, which surprised Furong. At the same time, the initial elegance seemed to begin to fade away.

A strange tacit understanding gradually emerged between the two girls - there was less and less dialogue between them.

Usually Hermione explains the process of solving the puzzle a little, then Furong nods and lets Hermione clear the obstacles and the two move on.

The atmosphere between the two becomes more and more strange.

Until Hermione noticed that Furong's expression began to become gloomy. She finally seemed to confirm something and nodded secretly.

In the whole underground tower, Harry is making steady progress without danger, Hermione and hibiscus are unimpeded, and only Lockhart disguised as Marca is moving away from the target floor.

"... I don't know what's going on." Ron sat in the viewing seat and looked at the green flame below. He felt a little empty unconsciously.

He didn't have the chance to participate in the top three, which has always been an empty hole in his heart.

The whole audience was very lively. Everyone was discussing who would win - although the objects of support were different, when it comes to the champion, most people actually tacitly agreed that Maka was the only candidate.

In fact, his performance in the top three is not eye-catching, but who makes him too famous now?

A wizard who has broken through the World Cup final, but the Ministry of magic has always been silent, has long become a daily topic for wizards and wizards.

Many people even think that he may have something to do with death eaters.

Of course, up to now, no wizard has publicly expressed his views on "Voldemort's return". Whether or not we have made similar guesses, it turns out that we don't want to think about this possibility at all.

Even if it has almost been put in front of everyone.

"It's just the resurgence of the rest of the death eaters. The British Ministry of magic is not in a hurry. What are we in a hurry?"

Although these are just some ideas of the public, they are enough to explain many problems.

But who can know that as the only candidate for the championship, "Maka" deviated from the beginning; Hermione, who most people didn't care much, went all the way with Furong, who always performed poorly.

To tell the truth, objectively according to the level of current age, 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 champion has not been decided, the game will continue. Bagman will really end the game unless all four warriors abstain actively or passively.

On the main table where the jury was located, only Dumbledore was calmly looking down. His sharp eyes seemed to penetrate the platform and see everything faced by the warriors underground.

……

"Falling apart!"

On an underground floor, Hermione and hibiscus met a combat level.

In this level, the two girls showed extraordinary strength, pushed back several mobile armor perfectly, and jumped into the magic flame guarded by those mobile armor almost at the same time.

The two have experienced more than ten levels together.

Most of these levels are not difficult. Occasionally, Hermione conquered a few of them.

When they passed the floor again, with the silent disappearance of the magic flame in front of them, a heat wave suddenly hit them head-on.

The room on this floor is full of flames at a glance. The blazing tongue rises on the ground and can almost lick the ceiling on the top.

It was not long before sweat began to seep from their foreheads.

"Cold as ice."

Hermione immediately put a freezing spell on herself. She glanced at the hibiscus beside her, and then stepped into the sea of fire without hesitation.

The flames soon swallowed her up, and she disappeared in a few breaths.

Hibiscus seemed unwilling to fall behind. She also drew gourds, put a freezing spell on herself, and then hurried into the fire to chase Hermione's footsteps.

Once you enter the sea of fire, you will find that the flame is not completely connected. Although the flame was removed and nothing else could be seen at a glance, there were still some gaps in the middle.

Hermione took the lead in walking ahead, with decisive and steady steps, as if she knew where to go, without stopping for a moment.

But Furong didn't have time to keep up. She was only stunned for a few seconds, and she never found Hermione again.

The direction they chose soon deviated from each other.

Freezing spell does not last long for itself, and there are some negative effects of slow movement. In such a large sea of fire, you have to make up for yourself from time to time to ensure long-term activities in the fire.

In addition to the effect of freezing spell on small creatures, casting a spell on yourself can also be used to avoid fire. If the side effects are aside, its fire avoidance effect is actually better than the fire and moisture spell.

The flame that can cause severe burns and even death can only make the caster produce a little numbness. As long as not the whole person has been trapped in the ordinary flame, there will be no problem.

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

After a while, Hermione's flame suddenly changed color. Unexpectedly, she had found the right exit to the next floor.

Strangely, however, she did not step into it, but pointed at the ground and stretched out her wand.

"Thunderbolt explosion."

Almost at the same time of reciting the mantra, a loud explosion spread all over the floor level.

Furong, who was still searching for the exit in other places, suddenly turned her head and looked straight at the direction of the explosion.

She could even vaguely see that the flame where Hermione was was roaring open, making a layer of flame waves in the sea of fire.

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

No one knows the meaning of the spell she cast, but her behavior is obviously showing Furong the way. Could it be said that she was just expressing goodwill to Hibiscus? Or is that because she is a very kind girl?

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

One of them is already in the depths of the mountains and forests of Albania, dealing with ancient underground palaces and tombs; The other man was sitting in the center of the host and guest table, calmly looking at everything he could see with his wise blue eyes.

The night, gradually becoming deep, seems to be interpreting the coming of darkness.

In the distance, the trees in the forbidden forest are swinging new branches and waving leaves with the breeze, but they are not real in the night.

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

It is under this night sky, somewhere in Hogwarts, where there is no one, that a young girl is still studying the preparation of enchanting drugs without expression.

She doesn't care about the top three competition that has reached the finals, or she doesn't notice any top three competition at all.

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

When everyone was excited about the top three, a slight rustle suddenly came out in the corner where she was - there seemed to be a new change in the liquid medicine in the crucible.

Just then, with a "poof" sound, the lid of the crucible jumped.

"Unicorn horn powder, 0.1 oz."

She carefully opened the lid and poured a little gold powder already prepared into the crucible with light blue smoke.

Then, a mass of purple black smoke that people can't move away from their sight rises into the air, and there are still glittering and translucent dots in it, which is interesting against the stars in the sky.

The girl took off the wide brimmed pointed Wizard Hat on her head, and her white hair poured down, setting off her pure eyes more and more clearly.

In that look, a rare hope flashed by.
