Chapter 308 Black Hand
Ignoring the attitude of the mermaid leader in front of him, Wright directly controlled the spirit bird to check her memory.
The mermaid leader was also keenly aware that his memory was being captured and viewed, but he did not dare to resist in the slightest.
Wright carefully reviewed the memories he had obtained from the mermaid leader:
At the bottom of the dim black lake, a mysterious figure easily passed through the protection of the leader's personal guards.
The leader, who had just picked up a spear to resist, was immediately controlled after a terrifying and strange hissing sound.
"Use all your strength to humiliate those strong wizards who come to rescue us!"
After leaving this order, the figure twisted and disappeared on the spot.
"No wonder Harry wasn't troubled by the mermaids. It turns out he's not strong enough!"
After checking the leader's memory, Wright's face showed a look of realization:
"From this point of view, this Delphi should also know Harry, which is related to Voldemort's resurrection!"
"Otherwise, she wouldn't have specifically asked for this!"
"It's just that I don't know how much Delphi knows, whether it's a Horcrux or the material for resurrection."
Just as Wright was thinking, he suddenly felt weak.
Feeling the magic power in his body almost burn out, he looked at the leader crawling on the ground, his voice still majestic and indifferent:
"Now, I know the whole story!"
"In a sense, you have indeed suffered an unprovoked disaster."
"But you are not worthy of arguing with me. Just fulfill the promise Dumbledore made to you, and don't worry about the rest."
"As long as you want us to, we will do it!"
Even with Wright's arrogant attitude, the mermaid leader did not dare to complain.
After searching around using the maze gems, no surprises were found.
No trace of Delphi was found under the entire Black Lake.
Wright, who was mentally prepared, was not disappointed with the result.
"If she was really that easy to catch, the grass on her grave would have been two meters high long ago."
After comforting himself, Wright turned to look at the mermaid leader who was almost cooked, and said slowly again:
"This matter ends here!"
"Assist them to complete the trial and make sure they don't make any more mistakes."
"I understand, I understand!"
"Thank you for your mercy, thank you for your mercy..."
The mermaid leader, who was crawling on the ground, almost cried for joy when he heard this. His boiled red body trembled as he kept thanking the master.
"Bah!!!!"
Under Light's control, the spirit birds stopped releasing heat and instead recycled it and converted it back into magic power.
As the extremely terrifying high temperature was recovered, the boiling lake bottom returned to calm and the temperature returned to normal.
However, there were countless mermaids at the bottom of the lake, floating in the water with red bodies, looking extremely terrifying.
"This loss is quite high! The magic power released can only be converted back to one tenth!"
After roughly evaluating the magic power converted back into his body, Light once again turned his gaze to the dying mermaids:
"Next, let me bring this drama to a beautiful close!"
Feeling the magic power in his body recovering rapidly, Wright used the labyrinth gem to cast a spell remotely: "Recover as before!"
An incomprehensible spell mixed with terrifying magical power swept across the entire area of the water that had just been boiled.
The mermaid, who was still able to move, felt this terrifying magic power again, and her body froze in place, not daring to move.
Under the effect of magic, the entire area of water seemed to be going backwards in time.
The scene of the entire mermaid village returned to the moment before being threatened by Light.
The mermaid that was almost cooked, the mermaid that was floating everywhere, returned to where it came from.
Except for those mermaids who are still weak and in a coma, all others have recovered.
Although his body has recovered, the mental pain he has endured has not yet dissipated.
The huge tearing feeling between the two caused many mermaids' bodies to tremble uncontrollably.
The four warriors who were protected looked back at the large-scale scene that seemed like a miracle.
The expressions on their faces kept changing, with longing, desire, expectation...
Wright ignored their surging emotions when the scene in the mermaid village returned to its original state.
He then dispersed his magic power and controlled the spirit bird to re-broadcast the scene at the bottom of the lake.
"Recovered, recovered!"
"Great, it looks like the school and the mermaid have reached an agreement."
"As long as it's okay, it'll be okay."
……
After a brief cheer, the audience once again focused on watching the live broadcast.
Even if the body is restored by magic, the mental pain will not be easily erased.
The group of mermaids blocking the road looked at the four humans in front of them in fear.
Under the command of the mermaid leader, they trembled and made way for the hostages.
The mermaids' retreating movements once again caused the audience to cheer loudly.
The three warriors swam anxiously along the cleared path towards the tied hostages.
Cedric pulled out his knife and cut the ropes that bound Cho Chang, while Fleur used her wand to cast a cutting spell...
Krum held the shark's head and bit the rope with his sharp teeth.
With no mermen trying to stop them, the hostages were quickly rescued.
Seeing this, Harry felt relieved and took Ron, who had been drifting for a long time, to swim towards the surface of the lake.
Amid the cheers of the audience, he became the first warrior to rescue the hostages and successfully leave the bottom of the lake.
A few minutes later, Cedric swam out of the water with a bubble on his head.
Then, Bloom and Hibiscus appeared on the lake one after another.
They were pulled ashore with the people they had rescued by the referee who was anxiously waiting on the shore.
After handing the warriors and hostages over to the care of Madam Pomfrey, the referees discussed the scores on the side.
After extremely fierce debates, accusations, and even almost a fight, the scores of each warrior were also evaluated.
Then, Ludo's loud, cheerful voice resounded throughout the Black Lake again:
"Ladies and gentlemen, we have made a decision."
"With a full score of 50, the scores of each warrior are as follows..."
"Fleur Delacour showed excellent use of the Bubblehead Charm but was the last to surface. We give her 38 points."
There was a burst of warm applause from the stands, as they also knew that Furong had only narrowly lost.
"Cedric Diggory also used the Bubblehead Charm. He was also the second to return with the hostages."
"So, we give him 40 points."
The Hufflepuff students in the crowd immediately cheered, their voices no weaker than Ludo's.
"Viktor Krum used advanced Transfiguration techniques. Although it was incomplete, it was effective."
"He was also the third person to return to the lake with the hostages. We gave him 42 points."
Although Karkaroff clapped particularly loudly, not many viewers bought it except Bloom's own fans.
After all, the human body and shark head he transformed into was too ugly.
