#400 - Chapter 400 Harry's Dilemma

Just as Malfoy was full of confidence, the first question that appeared on the screen gave him a blow to the head.

[Question 1: Logic Puzzle

You have two empty jugs in your hand, with volumes of 5 liters and 6 liters respectively. Please find a way to use these two jugs to fetch 3 liters of water from the Black Lake.]

"What kind of鬼题目 is this? ! ! Are you kidding me? At least test some knowledge related to magic!"

Malfoy's mouth twitched. Although he cursed inwardly at the boredom of the question, he still counted on his fingers.

"Fill the 6-liter jug, then pour it into the 5-liter jug, leaving one liter of water in the 6-liter jug......"

"Then what....... Can I use Transfiguration to conjure another jug, store this one liter of water, and then repeat it three times to get three liters of water?"

[Time's up, the answer is wrong, please listen to the second question.

There is a Hippogriff in front of you. How do you eliminate its hostility?

A: Stare into the other person's eyes, then bow

B: Avoid eye contact, then bow

C: Stare into the other person's eyes, then raise your hands above your head

D: Avoid eye contact, then raise your hands above your head]

"This......" Malfoy was a little anxious. This question was indeed related to magic.

However, his elective courses did not include Care of Magical Creatures, so he had no idea what the answer to this question was.

"Logically speaking, for some magical creatures with great wildness, staring directly into their eyes will be regarded as a provocation, so A and C are eliminated first."

"For the remaining two answers, one is bowing and the other is surrendering, which are similar. I'll just guess one, I choose B."

[The answer is wrong, please listen to the third question.......]

.......

Twenty minutes later, listening to the prompt sound from the screen, Malfoy let out a long breath.

Finally passed the level successfully!

Fortunately, half of the ten questions were related to the five basic subjects: Transfiguration, Potions, Charms, Herbology, and Defense Against the Dark Arts, otherwise this time would have been really dangerous.

[Warrior Watch activated, get the clearance reward: 3 minutes of talk time and enable teammate location function.]

Malfoy raised his wrist and found that the watch was already lit up, with three red dots on it, which were the locations of him, Harry, and Cedric.

"Great, I don't have to worry about meeting later. Now, let's use the talk time first. It's very important to exchange information with Harry and the others."

As soon as the call was connected, he shouted excitedly: "Harry, Cedric, I have passed the Wisdom Trial here, what about you?"

"What a coincidence, I just passed the Ambition Trial. This is a small instance that requires strategy to win. It's very simple, you definitely have no problem." Cedric's voice came, with suppressed excitement in his words.

"I'm having some trouble here," Harry's voice rang out, "What I encountered was the Courage Instance, a very pure combat instance. Although I passed it, I was cursed, and now my height is only 30 centimeters, and my magic has become much weaker."

To be honest, he was startled when he was first cursed. If the prompt hadn't said that the curse would dissipate in at most three hours, he wouldn't have been able to continue the game with peace of mind.

"The wand in my hand is like a giant sword, which is very inconvenient. It's going to be difficult to deal with even Grindylows later."

"Then what are you going to do? Do you need help?" Malfoy asked quickly.

Cedric also asked with concern: "Why don't we meet up first?"

"Not for the time being," Harry refused, "We still need to collect fragments separately. If we meet up first, I'm afraid there won't be enough time."

"That's right, I'll keep my call opportunity first, and ask you for help if I need it. I'm just reminding you to pay attention when you encounter the Courage Trial."

"To be on the safe side, I suggest you choose the Courage Trial last."

"Okay," Malfoy no longer declined, and immediately briefly recounted the problems he encountered in the Wisdom Trial, "The questions may not be repeated, but you can also refer to them."

The three minutes passed in the blink of an eye. Harry picked up the red Courage Fragment and came outside the house.

He looked around. The familiar environment of the Black Lake had become gigantic. The water plants that were originally floating around at will were now like huge jungles.

The underwater thruster and his wand remained unchanged. In his eyes, they became huge, almost as tall as him, and he couldn't continue to use them at all. Only the alchemy watch became the right size along with him.

Harry looked at his webbed feet and gave up the idea of swimming to the next instance himself after a little thought.

I don't know how long it will take to swim with these little arms and legs. I still have to solve the problem of the underwater thruster.

He waved the giant sword-like wand and aimed it at one of the underwater thrusters: "Shrink!"

A faint light flashed, and the thruster quickly shrank under the effect of magic, eventually shrinking into a backpack size. He satisfiedly put it on his back and fastened it tightly to ensure that it would not fall off during propulsion.

Afterwards, he carefully tried to activate the thruster. Although the change in size made the operation a bit clumsy, after adjusting the angle, the thruster was successfully started.

The sense of speed brought by the thruster rekindled Harry's confidence. He tried his best to control the direction and swam forward crookedly.

The good times didn't last long. Just as he passed through a patch of water plants, several fish swam over from not far away.

Harry's eyes widened instantly. Those fish, which usually looked like common small fish in the Black Lake, had now transformed into giant beasts in his eyes, each fish almost as tall as him!

The school of fish swayed their tail fins, easily rolled up the water, and directly knocked him over onto the mud at the bottom of the lake.

"This is really鬼了! Ordinary fish are like this, wouldn't it be in vain if I encounter Grindylows and Merpeople."

Harry cursed inwardly, quickly avoided the school of fish, and hid behind a rock, and cautiously swam out only after seeing the school of fish go away.

For safety's sake, he cast a spell on himself—the Disillusionment Charm.

In the water, Harry's figure gradually disappeared, turning into an almost invisible ripple.

He then passed the Wisdom Trial and successfully obtained the second Wisdom Stone Fragment. Then, in the Ambition Trial, he successfully achieved the final victory with his wit and strategy.

After completing these two trials, he looked down at the alchemy watch on his wrist. A large arrow lit up on the screen, indicating him to go to the direction of the last instance.

Following the arrow, Harry came to the front of the Cooperation Trial instance.

At this time, he heard a rush of water, turned his head, and saw two familiar figures swimming over.

It was Malfoy and Cedric, but both of them had become the same as him, only 30 centimeters tall.

"What's going on, didn't I already remind you? Why have you become so small too?"
