Chapter 375 Treasure Hunt in the Black Lake
In the days that followed, the contestants took turns holding the golden eggs to study alone. The smart ones or the lucky ones gradually unlocked the secret of the golden eggs.
"I heard that Fleur untied the golden egg yesterday." Amel, who hadn't stood closely together for a long time, pulled Emmeline's arm and said.
Emmeline raised her eyebrows, "Who did you listen to?"
"Benjamin, when Benjamin went to get the golden eggs from Fleur this morning, he said that he saw something wrong with Fleur's expression. Compared with the sad look of the past few days, she was obviously happy about something. He guessed that Fleur must have unlocked the golden egg yesterday." Amell said.
"What about us?" Emmeline glanced at Amel.
"Going to find Fleur?" Amel understood what Emmeline meant.
Sean contacted the other Hogwarts contestants privately and did not directly tell them the contents of the golden egg, but hinted at how they could unlock it.
At Durmstrang, after Watson solved the secret of the golden egg, he handwritten a copy of the contents and circulated it to the Durmstrang players.
Now on the surface, some people think that only they know the rules. In fact, everyone knows it, and the originally tense atmosphere among the players has also eased a little. But everyone knows that this is just an appearance.
Time flies, and Easter is coming soon. Other students are looking forward to the two-week Easter holiday.
Easter this year is Sunday, April 16th, and the fifth competition is on April 15th.
"The competition is tomorrow. I'm so nervous. It's raining now, which makes it even more depressing." Joseph said while standing on the corridor of the auditorium and looking outside.
Suddenly a voice said, "It's not raining every day. Why are you so depressed?"
When Joseph turned around, it was Leno. He didn't feel much about the often rainy weather in England, but other teammates were complaining about the bad weather in England, but France was more comfortable.
Sean's magic power has been growing day by day during this time, and he estimates that he is now very close to Snape's magic power.
"Now the complete frog monster can also be realized."
The blood of the top magical creature killed on Alcatraz, the frog monster, was also absorbed by Sean's magic eyes. Now Sean consumes two-thirds of the magic power to materialize the frog monster for 30 seconds.
Sean estimates that such a frog monster can hold up to 10 elite Aurors, but the time it lasts is too short. In the future, as his own magic power increases, the time it takes to manifest will also be lengthened.
Raindrops were falling rhythmically outside, and there were many staff members riding brooms around the Black Lake. Five huge stands stood in the lake, each with two floors enough to seat 100 people.
At the bottom of the lake, the Ministry of Magic has sent a wizard who understands the mermaid language to have final communication with the mermaid tribe. They need to place the pearl oysters at the bottom of the lake. They have to make final verifications on which areas are inviolable to the mermaid tribe.
Mermaids are found all over the world, but their appearances vary. Just like human beings, there are good-looking and bad-looking mermaids.
Their living habits and customs are the same as those of the centaurs, which are a mystery to wizards, although those wizards who have mastered the mermaid language say that mermaids form extremely well-organized groups of varying sizes depending on where they live. , some also built elaborate residences.
Like centaurs, mermaids also declined the term "human" and chose the identity of "animal". Therefore, the Ministry of Magic also classified mermaids as magical creatures.
The earliest recorded mermaids were called sirens. Wizards discovered that the beautiful mermaids frequently described in Muggle literature and paintings all lived in warmer waters.
The mermaids of Scotland and Ireland are not so good-looking, but like other mermaids, they like music, which is the most common hobby of mermaids.
"The mermaids at the bottom of the Black Lake have bad tempers. You'd better not conflict with them when you go down tomorrow." Sean reminded several contestants at Hogwarts.
"Have you ever dealt with a mermaid?" Penello asked.
"Do you speak mermaid language?" Cedric had a lot on his mind.
Sean waved his hand and said, "I heard Professor Dumbledore say before that they are very united and intelligent, and they are not easy to mess with."
Harry belatedly asked, "Are we still going to have contact with mermaids?"
Sean was stunned for a moment and then said, "If you're lucky, you won't encounter any mermaids along the way."
"Does everyone else know the information in the golden egg?" Chris looked worried.
"I must know. The two Durmstrangs in our group felt different two days ago, don't you think?" Paul said to Cedric.
"Well, I think they hid it and didn't tell us," Cedric replied.
Sean looked at the seven people and said, "Cedric, Paul, Chris, you three are fine. You are in a mixed group. You four can each rely on your own abilities. Don't resent anyone if you are eliminated."
Sean took a precaution in advance. Penelo, Harry, Joseph and Ogudo, these four fellow school players were in a group, and after the fifth event, one person was going to be eliminated and fell to the last place. Before closing, it is inevitable to feel a knot in your heart.
"What a coincidence, the four of us happen to represent the four houses of Hogwarts." Ogudo said.
Joseph stood up and said, "What you said makes me very excited. If we are eliminated, the academy will lose face."
"You two, don't mess around. The rules say that the team with the most pearls will have priority in the sixth level. Although I don't know what the priority is, it must be beneficial," Penello said.
"We are all in this group. If we can unite and get first place in the group, we will at least have some advantages in the final round."
Sean said, "Penello is right. Your group is engaged in internal strife. As a team, it's best to discuss how to exchange magic."
Several people were silent. It was raining outside and the atmosphere was not harmonious.
Dusana's group and Leno's group are both composed of their own people. Dusana has the highest points in the group, but he can't guarantee whether a luck-based project like treasure hunting at the bottom of the lake will go smoothly.
So Gentle and Ramos were asked to ensure that he and Watson could advance to the final level.
"If you don't want to, you can go find Karkaroff." Dusana saw the reluctance of the two.
Having come this far, Gentle and Ramos don't want to be unknown and just a foil.
Leno also said similar things to the team members. He is basically not as good as Lucas and Fleur in the team, but his overall strength is undoubtedly the strongest.
"I have to advance, and that's what Principal Maxim meant," Leno said.
