Chapter 422 Ambush

The scale of this maze far exceeded everyone's expectations. Five minutes passed in a flash, and the second-ranked Vagadu Warriors Squad also quickly entered the maze under Bagman's command.

"The warriors of Ugadu have made full use of the advantages of Transfiguration," Bagman's explanation was passionate and clear. "The warrior Amusu transformed into a vulture through Animagus, and under the shrinking spell of his teammates, his body shrunk to the size of a sparrow. This body shape allows him to fly freely in the narrow paths of the maze."

"Amusu used his agile flying advantage to quickly explore the path, and his two teammates Moussa and Bakari were not far behind. They skillfully used Transfiguration to create many small animals that ran in front of the team, leaving the ambushing dark creatures nowhere to hide. With such cooperation, their forward speed was also extremely fast."

There was warm applause from the audience, giving heartfelt cheers to the three warriors of Uagadou.

On the other side, as early as when the warriors of Vagado entered the maze, Harry and the other two, who were calculating the time, decisively adjusted their strategy, giving up the blasting spell and instead using the quieter cutting spell to deal with the hedge.

Although this change slowed down their advance slightly, it greatly reduced the sound of their movements, effectively preventing the Uagadu warriors from inferring their plans through their movements and imitating them.

At this moment, Harry and the other two had arrived at the last checkpoint leading to the center of the maze - a seemingly calm pond.

The pond was only a meter deep, but there lurked a XXXX-level magical creature, Kaba. This aquatic reptile looked like a scaly monkey, with thick webbed limbs, and was swift and cunning.

Wading through the water is undoubtedly a risky move, as these kaba are extremely good at sneak attacks, especially when their prey is off balance.

To be honest, this magical creature is not difficult to deal with if you are prepared. However, the real trap is the magic swamp hidden under the water. Once you step on it accidentally, your feet will be sucked firmly. Combined with Kaba's sneak attack, if the warriors panic, they may be overturned.

Harry and the other two already knew the nature of the pond, so they had no plans to go into the water.

They raised their wands and chanted in unison, "Glacius!"

Three dazzling white lights shot towards the pond like sharp arrows. The three strands of magic intertwined and overlapped, forming a powerful compound magic multi-freezing spell. In an instant, the entire pond was covered with ice, and Kaba was also frozen in the thick ice along with the water, no longer able to launch a sneak attack.

"It's amazing!" Bagman's commentary sounded at the right time, "The Hogwarts warrior team used multiple freezing spells to solve the trap in front of them. They passed through the exit on the last hedge and came to the open space in the center of the first floor of the maze, and then stepped onto the stairs leading to the next floor."

"The competition has only been going on for ten minutes, and the Hogwarts Warriors have already completed the first floor of the maze, which theoretically takes at least half an hour! Currently, they have safely reached the second floor of the maze. Meanwhile, the Ugadu Warriors are still advancing a quarter of the way through the first floor, and the Beauxbatons Warriors, who are in third place, have just entered the maze!"

The whole audience exclaimed in amazement, but Bagman did not stop explaining: "With such a huge lead, the Hogwarts warriors actually chose to stop at the flat rest area in front of the entrance to the second floor of the maze. Could it be that they just consumed too much energy and tried to take a rest and recover their strength during this time?"

"Or are they confused about which of the four roads in front of the rest area to choose? No wonder they are so cautious. If they choose the wrong road, they will only waste time and may even allow other teams to close the gap and catch up. After all, the difficulty of the second level of the maze is much higher than the first level."

"Will the three of them follow the style of the previous level and use blasting spells to move forward violently? Honestly, this is not a good idea, because the subsequent teams can quickly close the distance along the path they have opened up."

"No!" Bagman's voice became excited. "Look everyone, they are not going to rest, but setting up a magic trap. They are going to ambush the later teams here. It's a bold idea. They are trying to use static to dynamic and lock in the victory in advance."

"I wonder if the warriors of Uagadu can discover the ambush here. Let us wait and see."

The audience's emotions were aroused to the extreme, and there was a heated discussion throughout the venue, with everyone guessing what kind of showdown would happen next.

Principal Vagado's expression also turned serious. He had never expected that the Hogwarts Warriors would adopt such radical tactics.

Aren’t these children worried that while the snipe and the clam fight, the fisherman will benefit?

On the other side, Harry and the other two waved their wands and quickly set up a magical swamp at the entrance to the second floor. This was a swamp spell that the three of them had specially learned.

Judging from the appearance alone, no one would have thought that this seemingly flat ground has turned into a swamp full of mud.

Then, they used the Disillusionment Charm to hide their bodies and ambushed near the entrance from three directions.

About fifteen minutes later, there was a flash of light at the entrance and three people walked out. They were the three warriors of Wagadu, Amusu, Musa and Bakari.

Before they could see the surrounding arrangements clearly, two red lights shot out and accurately hit Bakari who had let his guard down. He fell to the ground without a word.

"There's an ambush!"

Amusu and Musa reacted very quickly and leapt to the side the moment the spell hit Bakari.

Among them, Musa completed the Animagus transformation in mid-air before he landed on the ground, turning into a giant chimpanzee. He twisted his body and used all his strength to throw the wand in his hand like a spear at Harry who had revealed his figure.

Anyway, I can cast spells with gestures, so even if I lose my wand, it doesn't matter. On the contrary, I can catch the opponent off guard. The opponent will definitely not expect that I will throw the wand as a weapon. If I am lucky, it is not impossible to knock one of the opponents unconscious.

However, as soon as he raised his wand, Cedric, who was already prepared for the attack, used a barrier spell to knock it away.

After that, Musa had no chance to attack. Having twisted his body in mid-air, he had already lost his balance and plunged into the swamp. He tried to exert force with his hands, but there was no point of force. Instead, he sank deeper and deeper because of his struggle.

On the other side, Amusu did not choose to transform into an Animagus, but instead skillfully used the Armor Spell in mid-air to protect himself.

I was careless. I never expected that the warriors from Hogwarts would set an ambush here.

The process of counterattack quickly flashed through Amusu's mind: after landing, he needed to roll on the spot, quickly counterattack while avoiding subsequent attacks, and try his best to eliminate one of them, otherwise the situation would be very difficult.

But before he could do anything, he felt his feet go soft and half of his body sank into the mud. He couldn't even move, let alone do a somersault.

What the hell!

There are actually magic traps, these insidious guys!

You have become a living target!

Amusu only had time to curse in his heart before he was knocked unconscious by the subsequent coma spell.

Sebastian appeared at the right time and began to perform the duties of a security guard. He waved his wand and pulled Musa, who had turned into a gorilla, out of the mud. If he had been a little slower, the young man would have suffocated to death.

Then, he smiled at Harry and the other two, and let the three warriors of Vagadu float away behind him.

At this point, all the members of the Uagadou Warriors were eliminated...
