Log In to The Old Man Ring At Hogwarts at the Start

Hermione slapped Harry's hand away, and said, "This is an alchemy tool invented by my cousin, he calls it a water-proof bead.

Hermione explained: "He combined the principles of the Bubble Curse and the Iron Armor Curse to create this water-repelling bead that allows people to breathe underwater and also has certain defensive capabilities."

Harry was stunned when he heard this.

How did he forget about Zicomo?

In order to find a way to breathe underwater, he searched half of the library.

If it weren't for Neville's presence, he might not have been able to find the Yao-Xia grass.

At that time, Harry was too busy looking for potions and herbs, and didn't think about alchemy props.

But if he asked Zicomo to ask, he didn't have to spend all day in the library looking through those big books that he didn't have much interest in.

When Harry came back to his senses, Hermione had long since disappeared.

At the moment when he was dazed, Hermione had already swam away and went to the match.

Harry realized that he was racing right now, and hurriedly swam towards the depths of the Black Lake.

And Hermione, who set off earlier than Harry, arrived at the bottom of the Black Lake one step ahead of the warriors from the other two schools.

However, after Hermione walked through the underwater jungle made of black water plants, fought off groups of Grindylos, and avoided the traps set by a large number of mermaids, she saw a scene that made her dumbfounded

Hermione saw Ron, Fleur's sister, and a girl she didn't know floating not far from the bottom of the lake.

They all closed their eyes tightly, not breathing at all, as if they were dead.

Of course, the Triwizard Tournament isn't that cruel, and it's just a matter of killing a few people to add to the fun.

These three people just fell into a state of suspended animation under the influence of magic, as long as they returned to the water surface, they could wake up from this state.

So far everything is normal, what is not normal is the scene not far away.

Hermione saw that Zicomo was holding Lani in his arms, sitting on the tallest building of the mermaid tribe, with a relaxed look, as if he was here for sightseeing.

In the distance, a group of mermaids were huddling together and looking at Zicomo's direction tremblingly, as if Zicomo and Lani were some kind of scourge.

Zicomo sees Hermione and asks her to sleep.

Hermione swam up to Zicomo and asked, "Cousin, what's going on?"

Zicomo said with a smile: "Hasn't your clever little brain figured it out? I am the baby you are looking for."

Naturally, with Hermione's intelligence, she couldn't fail to see that the so-called treasure was the most cherished person of these warriors.

But she was still confused, so she continued to ask: "But, if you are a baby, shouldn't you be the same as those three people over there? And didn't that Barty Crouch say that you were stolen last night?" Are you leaving?"

Hermione never thought that the so-called baby would be her cousin, and the big reason was because of the misleading information of old Crouch.

She was still having breakfast with Zicomo this morning, so naturally she would not link the so-called baby with Zicomo's disappearance.

Zicomo rolled his eyes and said, "Do you think they can trap me with their level of magic? Can they turn me into those three people over there?"

Hermione shook her head upon hearing that.

Zicomo spread his hands and said, "That's it? They can't do anything to me, so when I come down, isn't it up to me to decide?"

Hermione asked: "Why is Lani here?"

Zicomo replied: "I was afraid that Lani would be bored up there alone, so I brought her down together."

At this point, the doubts in Hermione's heart have been completely resolved.

How did she pay attention to seeing her brother?

Hermione thought her cousin didn't come to see her match, and left her to go on a date with Lani.

wrong!

It occurred to Hermione, wasn't the two of them dating before she came down?

And it's such a romantic place underwater.

Thinking of this, Hermione suddenly lowered her head depressed.

She worked hard to break through various levels in the water, but her "baby" was actually dating Lani.

So what is she? Is she here to catch rape?

But the problem is that Lani is her cousin's fiancee, and she is the so-called 'third party'.

It is already magnanimous for Lani to accept her, and she seems to be unable to say anything more.

Thinking of this, Hermione looked bitter and sullen.

Seeing that Hermione's mood suddenly became depressed, Zicomo stretched out his hand and rubbed Hermione's head.

Because it is separated by a layer of protective cover, it has a hard feel.

Zicomo withdrew his hand silently and asked, "What's wrong with my little witch? Why is she suddenly upset?"

Hermione felt Zicomo's concern and pulled herself together.

She raised her head and said, "It's nothing, I just think that you are watching the scenery at the bottom of the lake, but I still have to compete, and I feel a little unbalanced."

Hermione directly stated the reason for her displeasure.

Between her and Zicomo, there is nothing that cannot be said.

Zicomo could hear a hint of jealousy in Hermione's words.

"What's so unbalanced? If you want to do the same, I'll bring you here some other day."

Zicomo laughed, "Besides, this black lake is black and green, so what's so interesting about it? That is, the buildings of the murlocs are interesting.

Hermione first smiled and nodded at Zicomo's promise.

Then corrected: "They are called mermaids."

Zicomo waved his hand and said, "Then I don't care, anyway, I don't agree that they are mermaids. The mermaids are so beautiful, you can look at them again."

As he spoke, Zicomo pointed to the mermaid not far away, and said, "They insulted the word mermaid."

Hermione was thoroughly amused by Zicomo.

Her cousin is good at everything, but occasionally shows a childish side.

Just like now, like a child who stubbornly insists on his own truth.

But in Hermione's opinion, there's nothing wrong with that, she thinks her cousin looks cute.

Hermione followed Zicomo's wishes and said, "Alright, alright, then call them murlocs."

She went on to say: "So, my baby, can we get back to the water? If we don't go up, the other three will catch up with my progress."

Hermione's emphasis on the word "baby" caused Zicomo a rare moment of embarrassment.

0...ask for flowers...

Zicomo nodded and said, "Let's go."

He first let Lani back to the "Zen Garden", and then followed Hermione upstream.

Lani was not a person involved in this competition, so following them up like this would not have a good influence on Hermione.

It would be bad if someone said that Hermione cheated by then.

Although they are not afraid, it is better not to have this kind of trouble.

While passing through the jungle made of aquatic plants, Zicomo and Hermione found the hibiscus entangled by Grindylow.

Grindylow is a kind of water devil with horns and light green body. They have slender fingers and six tentacles below the abdomen.

This magical animal usually feeds on small fish and is extremely aggressive towards humans.

However, the Grindylo group under the Black Lake has been tamed by the mermaids, so they didn't really hurt Furong, but kept blocking Furong's progress.

Fu Rong was very helpless, she originally thought that relying on her veela's charm power, she would be able to compete like a fish in water even underwater.

I didn't expect to meet this group of low-intelligence Grindylow, and her charm didn't work at all.

Fleur didn't take off her wand because her one-piece swimsuit didn't have room for a wand.

So she was defeated by this group of Grindylows.

At this moment, her bubble head spell has been broken by Grindylow, and she is about to ask for help from the people on the water because of lack of oxygen.

Zicomo threw out a spell, which was his improved bubble head spell, the one with defensive power.

And he also helped Fleur to disperse the group of Grindylos by the way.

Seeing that she was saved, Furong was deeply relieved at first.

She then said gratefully to Zicomo: "Thank you so much!"

Zicomo waved his hand and said, "It's easy."

Fu Rong nodded and said: "I still have to save my sister, let's talk later."

Obviously she knew what was stolen from her.

I don't know whether it was Mrs. Maxim who informed Furong again in advance, or whether Furong realized that her sister was missing and thought of the truth herself.

Zicomo grabbed her and said, "You don't even have a wand now, there are still many dangers ahead, are you sure you can get by?"

Reminded by Zicomo, Huang Rong also realized her current situation.

She appealed to Zicomo: "Please, please help me one more time! I can't leave Gabriel at the bottom of the lake."

As the saying goes, helping people to the end and sending Buddha to the west.

Furong's request is not difficult, and Zicomo will naturally not refuse.

He waved his hand towards the bottom of the lake, and summoned Gabriel with the Flying Charm.

At this moment Harry had just reached the bottom of the lake from the other direction, and he hadn't had time to be surprised after seeing Ron.

Turning around, I saw Gabriel flying towards the distance at an extremely fast speed.

Harry thought there were some horrible creatures in the water.

He was so frightened that he quickly untied the rope under Ron's feet, and quickly swam up with Ron in his arms.

On the other side, Fu Rong was puzzled by Zicomo's gesture of beckoning, when she suddenly heard the sound of water being stirred behind her.

As soon as she turned her head, she saw her sister flying towards her.

Fu Rong quickly reached out to catch Gabrielle. .
