Chapter 310 The game is over



Chapter 310 The game is over.

Although the weather is very cold, and there is nothing to see at the game site for the time being.

However, the number of spectators on the lakeside has not decreased. On the contrary, as the one-hour game time is approaching the end, the endless stream of people coming to watch the game has made the Black Lake even more crowded.

The commentator Bagman is trying his best to explain on the stage so as not to bore the audience.

He is indeed a smart man and knows what the audience wants to know most. He said that he was talking about some gossip about the contestants.

For example, the story of Krum and his most beloved baby, Hermione, and the somewhat strange relationship between Harry and his most beloved baby, Ron.

These biased heavy news made the audience listen with relish and excitement.

"Look at the lake! What is that!"

Someone in the audience suddenly shouted, and everyone looked in the direction he pointed, and saw that the originally calm Black Lake was now surging.

Now no one listened to Bagman's gossip stories anymore, and everyone was staring at the lake.

Everyone in the judges' booth frowned.

No one knew how deep the Black Lake was better than them. Logically speaking, at such a deep depth, no matter what Mike and the others did at the bottom of the lake, the lake surface should not react.

Dumbledore shook his head. He sincerely hoped that this was just a small coincidence, otherwise Harry and Mike's situation would become very dangerous, because there were not many creatures in the Black Lake that could make such a noise, and those creatures were not easy to mess with.

But his hope was doomed to fail.

The noise on the surface of the Black Lake was getting louder and louder. The turbulent water flow from bottom to top made the lake surface chaotic, and at the same time, a faint blue color spread over the lake surface.

"Oh my God! What happened down there?"

A student of Muggle descent couldn't help but exclaimed, and the people around him echoed him.

Everyone was concentrating on looking at the lake surface, hoping that there would be new changes on the lake surface, such as something floating up.

It was unknown how long it had been, but under everyone's gaze, a shark fin appeared on the water and was moving towards the shore at high speed.

Karkaroff jumped up from the referee's table with joy. You know, there are no sharks in the Black Lake, and the shark fin can only represent Krum.

But soon the smile on his face froze, because as the shark Krum gradually surfaced, the human face was surprised to find that he was holding two people?

That was fine, but what shocked everyone the most was that a glowing rope was tied to Krum's shark, and at the other end of the rope was Mike, who was also holding two people.

At this moment, Mike looked very cool, just like those handsome surfers on the Muggle beach.

As time went by, Krum rushed to the shore with Mike and others, and then collapsed on the ground, changing back to human form at a very fast speed, gasping for breath.

Mike dispersed the golden magic rope without blushing or panting, and walked towards the crowd holding Penelope and the silver-haired little girl.

As soon as they left the Black Lake, Penelope and the others woke up. Ron woke up and found himself lying next to Krum. His ears suddenly turned red. When he found Hermione lying on the other side of Krum, his face turned as red as a cooked lobster.

Penelope and the little girl also woke up. Penelope kissed Mike affectionately, while the little girl stared at Mike with her big eyes blinking.

At this time, Madam Pomfrey rushed over with a temporary medical team. They quickly covered everyone with blankets and wiped the water stains on everyone's body.

"Emm, ladies and gentlemen, there seems to be a problem with our game. Mike and Krum seem to have brought up the treasures of Fleur and Harry. This is a situation we had not expected before. It seems that the scoring will become very difficult in the future." Bagman explained, "But no matter what, our two warriors still completed their tasks ahead of schedule. Let us welcome them back with the warmest applause and cheers!"

Bagman was trying to guide the emotions of the audience to a climax, but in fact he didn't need to say much, almost all the audience present had already started cheering and applauding.

Amid the thunderous applause, Mike changed into a thick winter school uniform, first waved to the audience, and after an even louder cheer, he said to Professor Flitwick who came to check the situation:

"Professor! I was attacked by mermaids down there! They even summoned a giant octopus, but the giant octopus doesn't seem to be very obedient, and now it's wreaking havoc in the mermaid village."

Hearing this, the smile on Flitwick's face froze, and he asked seriously:

"This is no trivial matter, Mike. Are you 100% sure?"

"I'm sure and certain!"

Mike answered firmly, and Flitwick then took a deep breath and walked towards the referee's seat with a stern face.

Everyone in the referee's box looked very different after hearing what Flitwick said. Fudge's reaction was the most intense. He slammed the table and roared in a low voice:

"I've said long ago that we should drive all these guys away, Dumbledore! Those magical creatures are inherently cruel! There are so many children living here, how can nothing happen!"

"Don't worry, Fudge, it's too early to draw a conclusion now." Dumbledore took out his wand and looked at Fudge and said, "Besides, Harry and the others under the Black Lake must be in great danger now. How about I go down and pick up Harry and Miss Drake, and confirm the situation with the mermaids by the way?" It

didn't feel good to be stared at by Dumbledore with his wand in hand. Fudge instinctively shrank his body and replied weakly:

"Okay."

Dumbledore nodded expressionlessly, shaking the wand in his hand, and then a layer of translucent film appeared on his whole body.

Then, under the gaze of everyone, Dumbledore flew out like an arrow and rushed straight into the Black Lake.

Many spectators also noticed this scene and talked about it excitedly.

Seeing this, Bagman had to explain:

"Oh! Please don't make a fuss. Dumbledore is just going to the Black Lake to pick up our remaining two warriors. As you know, their treasures have been brought up, and it is a waste of time to stay in the lake."

This reason is reasonable, and many spectators nodded in agreement.

It was a good thing for them that Dumbledore could personally help the warriors. After all, they were getting impatient waiting in the snow and ice. If Dumbledore didn't take action, they didn't know when the game would end.

Half an hour later, Dumbledore came out of the water holding Fleur and Harry.

Fleur pushed away the medical staff who wanted to cover her with a blanket as soon as she landed. She rushed to the silver-haired little girl crying like crazy and hugged her in her arms.

The medical staff on the side all frowned. Now they had to wipe the little girl again.

On the other side, Harry was wiped by the medical staff with a dull face. He looked like a puppet being manipulated at will.

"Harry, are you okay?"

Mike's voice brought Harry back to his senses. He turned his head and looked at Mike with trembling hands, stammering,

"I... I'm fine, I... I'm just a little... a little scared!"

"It seems that you should have seen the octopus too. Please forgive me, Harry. The situation was too urgent, so I had to bring everyone up with me."

Harry's body was still shaking, not knowing whether it was because of the cold or fear. He opened his mouth slightly, and just as he was about to reply, Fleur rushed over and hugged Mike, kissing his cheek madly, and said excitedly,

"Thank you! Thank you, Mike! Thank you for saving Gabrielle! If something happened to her, I really don't know what to do!"

Fleur's sudden attack caught Mike off guard, but when he noticed that Penelope, not far away, was staring at this side with murderous eyes, he gently pushed away the excited Fleur, coughed twice and said,

"It's okay, this is what I should do."

"From now on I can do anything for you, Mike!" Fleur's eyes were red and her face was sincere, "I would feel so guilty if anything happened to Gabrielle! If I had known that they would take Gabrielle away, I would never have participated in this damn Triwizard Tournament!"

Mike shook his head helplessly, and it took him a while to coax Fleur away.

By this time Harry had almost recovered. Wrapped in a thick blanket, he said:

"Mike, I don't blame you. You made the best choice at that time."

"Thank you." Mike said, "Then can you tell me? How did Dumbledore bring you up?"

At this point, an abnormal blush appeared on Harry's face. He suddenly shook off the blanket and stood up, gesturing and saying in a trembling voice with excitement:

"That was so cool! You didn't see it, Dumbledore fell from the sky like a superhero, and then he waved his wand! Then the octopus monster was shrunk by ten thousand times! It turned directly into a small octopus!

Then he waved his hand again! The buildings in the mermaid village below that were damaged by the giant octopus began to recover automatically!

Finally, Dumbledore talked to the mermaids for a while, and then brought us up!"

After that, Harry was obviously still a little unsatisfied. He smacked his lips, as if he was recalling the scene at that time and then told Mike more.

But at this moment, Bagman's voice suddenly rang out.

"Ladies and gentlemen! We have finally made a decision. Merkus, the mermaid leader, has told us everything under the lake. We have decided to give each warrior the following score based on the full score of fifty...

Fleur Dracle showed excellent use of the Bubblehead Curse, but was slowed down by Grindylow and failed to rescue the hostages. Therefore, we give her twenty-five points."

There was applause from the stands, but Fleur lowered her head in shame.

"Harry Potter took the Gillweed and achieved amazing results. It's a pity that he got lost halfway and also failed to rescue the hostages. Therefore, we give him twenty-five points."

The Slytherin students laughed out loud, and Harry wanted to find a hole to crawl into immediately.

He felt that he had disappointed everyone.

"Victor Krum used Transfiguration, although it was incomplete, it was still very effective. He returned at the same time as Mike, and rescued Harry's treasure, Ron, out of humanitarianism. We should have given him more points, but the Mermaid Queen told us that Krum originally planned to return with his treasure directly, but Mike forced him to take Ron with him. So we give him 40 points!"

Karkaroff, who was sitting in the referee's seat, closed his eyes with a gloomy face. Krum's deduction made him feel very embarrassed.

On the contrary, Krum himself seemed to not care about the score at all.

At this moment, he was surrounding Hermione, asking about her well-being, and was extremely attentive.

"Finally, it's our Mike Townley!" Bagman roared at the top of his voice, "Mike not only returned here with Krum's treasures at the same time, but also protected everyone else's treasures!"

"Most of the judges," Bagman glanced at Karkaroff with great dissatisfaction, "felt that this fully demonstrated noble moral demeanor. However... Mr. Townley's score is 45 points!" As

soon as these words came out, boos and cheers immediately mixed in the stands.

The boos were because everyone understood what Bagman meant by most of the judges, and the cheers were because their warrior Mike still maintained his absolute lead in the standings.

Penello and others were clapping desperately, and Mike also waved his hand in response to their enthusiasm.

They saw it most clearly. Although Krum relied on this wave of points to directly surpass Harry and become the second place, Mike's lead was too big.

In this case, Karkaroff's tricks were harmless at all.

"The third and final event will be held in the evening of June 24th." Bagman said, "The warriors will know the specific content of the event one month in advance. Thank you all for your support to the warriors!"

The second event finally ended, and the audience left the Black Lake one after another. Mike and other warriors also began to leave.

But when Mike was about to return to the castle, Professor Flitwick suddenly stopped Mike.

"Mike, can you come to the principal's office this evening? The password is honeycomb cake." Before Mike asked what it was about, Professor Flitwick continued, "It's about you being attacked by mermaids underwater today. We specially invited the Mermaid Queen. I believe that after collecting intelligence in the evening, she will give you a satisfactory answer."

"Okay, I got it."

Mike nodded, and a smile appeared on Professor Flitwick's face. He said,

"Okay, let's not talk about these serious things for now. To celebrate your successful victory in the competition, how about we go for a big meal at noon!"

Mike also laughed when he heard it, and then the two of them looked at each other and walked towards the castle.
