Harry raised his wand towards the cheetah lying on the ground with a painful expression - her keen sense of smell had caused her enough trouble - hesitating whether to take action. He kept telling himself that this was a competition, and as long as they got the trophy, they would win. But another voice told him that he was taking advantage of someone in distress, and that Nona had given him a talisman before...

At this time, Nona woke up, she looked at Harry deeply, picked up the trophy, turned around and ran.

Harry hurriedly stopped her, "Expelliarmus!" The spell missed. Harry was very upset. What on earth was he thinking just now? This was a competition, and he missed such a good opportunity. He chased after her, throwing out spells one after another, but Nona kept jumping back and forth to avoid his spells.

A Stunning Spell hit her, and Harry was happy, but the cheetah's body suddenly burst into a ball of white light and disappeared into the bushes without any impact.

"Where is she?" Ron and Hermione caught up and asked breathlessly.

"She escaped!" Harry sat on the ground and slammed the ground in anger, "I shouldn't have shown mercy."

Ron looked at the distance at a loss, where there was only a cloaked squirrel peeking out of the bushes. Hermione thought for two seconds and said decisively, "There's still a chance, let's go that way." She pointed in the opposite direction.

Harry looked at her expectantly, "What do you mean?"

"She must take the trophy to the next floor and reunite with her teammates. But the direction she escaped is exactly opposite to the entrance to the fifth floor. Maybe we can catch her in front of us!"

Harry wanted to hug Hermione and kiss her.

"What are you waiting for!"

They ran back quickly. "Left - right - or right!" Hermione kept pointing in the correct direction, "We're almost there."

A shadow rushed out from the diagonal direction.

Harry's eyes widened. It was Nona Labbert! Then his heart sank. The distance was too far and it was impossible to catch up.

At this moment, a clear chirping sounded, and then something rushed out from beside him. The thing was covered in flames and crossed a distance of hundreds of feet in the blink of an eye. Harry recognized it. It was Hermione's ancient magic!

The firebird dragged its long feathers and blocked the cheetah's way a distance before the entrance. The cheetah looked at the firebird cautiously - the firebird sprinkled pieces of flames and blocked her way. In desperation, Nona Lebert returned to her human form.

No one took action.

Nona stood up from the ground and threw the trophy far away, with an eager expression.

"You can't beat the three of us." Harry said calmly.

Nona smiled and raised her hands, and said in a hoarse voice: "That's not necessarily true." Her hands suddenly crossed.

"Armor protection!" Harry instantly released the Iron Armor Charm, and the magic barrier drew sparks.

"Be careful of her gesture casting!" The reminder came late.

Bang, bang, bang!

A man rushed up from the fifth floor. It was Krum. He saw Nona and the trophy on the ground. He stretched out his wand and shouted, "Fly the trophy!" Harry canceled the armor spell, and a red light flew out from the tip of the wand, knocking the trophy far away.

"What-?" Krum shouted in disbelief. He turned around and saw Harry and the other two. He took a breath and quickly moved towards Nona.

"You want to cooperate?" Nona asked Krum.

Krum had a gloomy face. He looked at Hermione opposite and didn't say anything.

After a stalemate, the third person rushed in. It was Cedric. The scene in front of him also stunned him. Everyone's eyes fell on him. Harry was happy at first, but immediately realized that this was not classroom 7. They were competitors at the moment.

Cedric took

a step hesitantly towards Harry. "Fair competition?" Krum said in a low voice.

Cedric suddenly stopped and struggled. Of course, he wanted to get the trophy and let his team win, but helping Harry and the others was the best way at the moment. After a long while, he resolutely walked towards Harry.

"Well said, let's play fair." Harry suddenly said, "Three against three, very reasonable, isn't it?"

Cedric looked at Harry in surprise.

"I want to win fairly." Harry said briefly.

"That's right, we don't want people to talk behind our backs." Ron said, standing with Harry.

Hermione waved her wand, and the firebird landed steadily in front of her, staring at them with its long beak and golden eyes, "Three against three, no running away, the winner decides who owns the trophy, how about it?"

Everyone agreed.

Outside the maze castle, the audience held their breath, and the entire screen switched to the seventh floor, constantly switching between the perspectives of the six people. They were all infected by the solemn atmosphere.

"It's wonderful! It's wonderful! The warriors not only presented us with a wonderful game, but also showed a very high moral standard," Ludo Bagman said enthusiastically, "It's my honor to host this game."

"I want to introduce the information of the two sides of the battle: Potter, Weasley and Granger are on the same team, with a higher degree of tacit understanding, and each of them has performed well in the previous games. But their opponents should not be underestimated. Although they belong to three teams, don't forget that they are all captains of their respective teams!" One second

, two seconds, three seconds-

the people on the screen moved at the same time, and in an instant, spells flew!

...

The battle lasted for a while-

Harry lowered his head to dodge a spell, and quickly counterattacked. The spell deviated two inches and hit the statue. Krum was startled and hid back in the statue. But another spell flew out from an oblique direction, "Armor Protection!" Harry shouted loudly, and a circle of ripples appeared on the magic barrier.

Guarded, Harry's heart was pounding, "Hermione, let your Firebird do something!"

"Oh, no," Hermione said bitterly, "This magic is too powerful, according to the rules, it can't be used to attack people--" "

Then let it attack the statue!" Harry shouted.

Hermione was stunned, "That makes sense."

"Wait, I have an idea." Ron said, his body shaking violently, "It's worth a gamble."

"What are you going to do?" Hermione asked.

"Apparition."

"No, it's too dangerous--"

"I'll do it," said Harry. He thought Ron's idea was great. Why hadn't he thought of it before? Harry leaned out and cast a disarming spell. The spell hit the statue, and red light splashed everywhere.

"No," Ron refused. He looked at the other side with the rune of Armor Charm, and then quickly retracted. "Listen to me, you are my backup. I feel at ease with you. If even you fail, Hermione and I can't stand the three of them."

Harry was undecided.

"Don't hesitate. Who knows if someone else will come up in the next second? The problem now is to choose a target-" "

Krum," Harry agreed.

"Nona Labbert," Hermione said.

They looked at each other, and Ron said, "Let's just pick Nona. I see she's staying away from the other two."

The circling firebird turned into golden flames and instantly rolled up a statue. The high temperature burned the stone statue and the air, and the warrior hiding behind it stumbled back.

"On your left!" Hermione screamed.

"I see it," Ron said. He concentrated his attention and stared at Nona Labbert's left. If he attacked from there, he could roll into the bushes... His body suddenly disappeared, and when he reappeared, he was a little dizzy, but he didn't care about that. He raised his wand in an extremely awkward posture.

"Die!" Ron shouted loudly.

Time seemed to stop at this moment. Nona turned her head quickly, looked at her chest in disbelief, and slowly fell to the ground, with a trace of shock on her face. Ron rushed to the bushes in a hurry and succeeded! He grinned and laughed silently, while drilling deeper into the bushes.

The sound of �O�O�@�@ brought him back from his ecstasy. When he looked up, two cloaked squirrels were staring at him. They turned around silently and raised their tails...

On the other side, Krum and Cedric were both amazed. Apparition could not be used in battle. This was a consensus. At present, only two people could break the limit, Harry and Professor (Felix) Happ.

With just this delay, Ron slipped into the bushes. Krum raised his wand, and the next second, a ball of golden flame exploded in the open space three feet in front of him. He quickly dodged, and the flame condensed into a firebird, gently flapping its wings, and did not continue to attack. Hermione... Krum's mood was extremely complicated, and then his body went numb and slowly fell down.

Harry appeared behind him, panting. He still used Apparition, a rare opportunity... The next second he disappeared again, and when he appeared again, he was already behind Cedric. Cedric turned around sharply, and they pointed their wands at each other——

"You win." Cedric said, he threw away his wand, sat on the ground and gasped.
