Chapter 503 2 consecutive 3
Luke did not wait for Dumbledore's response, but first waited for Bagman to stop him.
"Wait, wait a moment..."
Ludo Bagman looked at the two people in front of him and said with lack of confidence.
Dumbledore didn't react much. Luke glanced at him, making Ludo shrink his neck subconsciously.
"Give me a reason."
Luke's voice was a little cold.Is he usually a little too gentle?Now in this situation, someone dares to stop his actions.
Ludo said with a stiff expression: "Mr. Potter and Mr. Krum are also here. First, it is better to announce the results of the competition."
He looked at Luke's face and showed no intention of softening, and couldn't help but look back at his leader.But at this time, Barty Crouch was staring at the score sheet in his hand, showing no intention of moving. He seemed unable to see or hear.He could only look back at Luke.
"Anyway...you have already caught the enemy, haven't you? The interrogation will not take less than a moment."
This is quite true.It really doesn’t take much time to announce a game result.After all, the result of this competition is still obvious to all.
Luke did not answer immediately, but looked in the direction of Barty Crouch. When he looked over, Barty just raised his head, glanced at Luke, and nodded to him.
Luke understood and knew that this was Batty's arrangement. Although he didn't understand what was going on for a while because there were many things on his mind, he believed that Batty must have his own reasons.
When Harry and Klum landed ashore, they were still a little confused looking at Luke's back.After all, Luke was technically behind them, and they didn't see Luke pass them at all.But think about it, since the other party is Luke Gunter, this matter is not so outrageous.
"Okay. Come on."
After all, Luke has a good temper when it comes to such trivial matters.And becoming famous through the Triwizard Tournament is his goal in itself.Moreover, what Ludo Bagman said makes sense. Once everyone is caught, interrogation is indeed harmless.After all, with the help of potions, it is relatively easy to kill or revive a wizard.
After getting Luke's permission, Bagman breathed a sigh of relief and quickly destroyed his podium.
"Ladies and gentlemen, we have finally made a decision. Mercus, the leader of the mermaids, told us everything that happened under the lake. We have decided to rate the warriors as follows... "
"Fleur Delacour, despite her excellent use of the Bubble Curse, was attacked by Green Lody as she approached the target and was unsuccessful in rescuing the hostages. We give her 25 points."
There was applause from the stands.
"I should have scored zero." Furong shook her graceful head and said hoarsely.
Gabri, who had regained consciousness, hugged her sister and gave her some comfort.
"Viktor Krum performed Transfiguration, incomplete but still effective, and he was the second to return with the hostage. We give him 40 points."
Karkaroff slapped his hands very vigorously, looking triumphant.
Krum's method indeed made everyone gain knowledge, and this method also made Luke feel a little emotional.Planting is a little different from the methods commonly used by wizards here in Europe.
"Harry Potter used gillyweed with amazing results."
There was also a burst of applause from the stands.This made Harry feel a little excited.He originally thought that his movements were too ungraceful and that everyone would have a bad impression of him and even laugh at him.But now it seems that the overall condition is pretty good.
"Mr. Potter's score is 45 points. Because after all, he is still a little slower than Mr. Krum, even if it is only one step."
There was no way, Krum didn't release his transformation until he landed ashore, but the effect of Harry's gillweed had already begun to fade before he landed ashore.And compared to him, Krum has obviously practiced.
After all, they live on a boat, and they may practice swimming frequently, and their movements in the water are obviously more flexible than him.
"As for...Mr. Gunter...we were quite entangled for a while."
Bagman glanced at Luke, felt the cold look in his eyes, then withdrew his gaze, and then continued: "The news we received from the Mermaid Queen, Mr. Gunter's rescue target is Barba. Miss La, from the moment she entered the water, she was not really in danger. She was quite proficient in the Head Bubble Charm and other underwater movement spells, and she woke up early after entering the water. In view of the fact that Miss Barbara was not More actions, so the mermaids didn’t embarrass Miss Barbara.”
"So, the difficulty of Mr. Gunter's rescue is undoubtedly much easier. But after all, Mr. Gunter saved Miss Gabrielle Delacour by the way, so in this regard, we decided not to deduct points from Mr. Gunter."
"Subsequently, Miss Barbara, Mr. Gunter's rescue target, took Miss Gabrielle ashore early and told us that there were other dangers underwater and asked us to rescue Mr. Gunter."
"But the result is obvious to all. Mr. Gunter dealt with the dangers outside of the test and was still the first to complete the task. Although the method of completing the task was different from what we expected, Mr. Gunter still completed the task and allowed The reason he used other methods to complete the task was ultimately due to off-field factors, so we decided not to deduct points from Mr. Gunter in this regard."
"In the end, Mr. Gunter's score is... one hundred points!"
After Bagman explained Luke's score and the reason for it, cheers erupted from the audience behind him.
After listening to this, Luke finally understood why he was asked to stay here.He looked at Barty and gave him a thankful look.
There is no problem that he must be number one here.But if you can't get full marks, the final result will definitely be worse.So Barty asked him to stay here because Luke was here, and some people didn't dare to use rogue methods to prevent Luke from getting full marks.
And having said all that, I am actually still trying to make up for Luke after all.After all, strictly speaking, Luke's victory was truly inconsistent with the process.Deducting points is reasonable, and even not giving points is a bit extreme, but it makes sense.If you want to give full marks, you have to give a reason.
"Okay, everyone! The third and final project will be carried out on the evening of June 6th," Bagman continued. "The warriors will know the specific content of the project one month in advance. Thank you everyone for your support to the warriors. support."
After it was over, Luke nodded to Barty again, and then briefly exchanged glances with Dumbledore. The two left together, followed by water balloons and bubbles. This time, no one stopped them. .
………………
"The intensity of the fight between you has escalated, and it's escalating very quickly."
Dumbledore led Luke into an unknown classroom, and with Luke's surprised eyes, he pushed the blackboard in the classroom.The blackboard quickly sunk in and turned into a small door.
Dumbledore pushed open the small door, led the way, and turned to wink at Luke.
Luke frowned and followed Dumbledore toward the small door with the two captives.
"This is one of the secret rooms of the castle that I accidentally discovered. It's a place similar to a dungeon."
Dumbledore said with emotion: "I don't know how many similar rooms there are in Hogwarts that I haven't discovered yet."
Castles are inherently more military than residential.No matter how gorgeous a castle is, it cannot change its fundamental function in design, so the living experience of a castle is actually inferior to buildings such as mansions, manors, and villas.
For example, if you see something like a dungeon in a mansion or manor, you must doubt the identity of its owner.But there is no need to be surprised to see it in a castle, especially an ancient castle.
In a magic castle, there is no need to make a fuss about such a strange, hidden dungeon.It should be said that in Hogwarts, there is no need to feel too strange about anything you see.
The dungeon was small and gloomy, surrounded by darkness, with only the faint lights on the walls lighting up.The air and the overall environment did not appear damp or corrupt, but rather dry and tidy.But that's how it is. When the dim light casts distorted shadows on the walls made of rough stones, the entire space still looks ghostly and creepy.
The dungeon was not deep, and Luke and Dumbledore soon reached the inner space.
Luke looked around briefly. There was a wooden bed with a rotten body in the dungeon. The rotten bed board was covered with dust and cobwebs. There were dark red blood stains on the wall beside the bed, which seemed to bear witness to this place. The cruelty and terror of the past.
There is straw on the wooden bed, which looks pale and humble under the light of the dark night.In the corners of the ground, there are some rusty iron chains and lock rings scattered here and there.
"Quite professional."
Luke couldn't help sighing.But it's a pity that he really didn't need such professional tools for this interrogation.In this aspect, he is actually a layman, but he still understands a little about how great efforts can produce miracles.
Dumbledore waved his wand, and the small room was instantly sealed with soundproofing and movement-restricting spells.Luke asked worriedly: "Add a layer of magic that restricts space movement. This guy has transformed in the black lake."
Dumbledore's eyes narrowed.The whole person's state became much more serious, and he waved the wand three times in a row.This time, even Luke felt that his actions were a little less flexible.
Dumbledore watched Luke release the two captives, and used potions and spells to treat the two people, and then asked solemnly: "He used disembodiment in the Black Lake. This what's going on?"
"Not only that, I also found the door keys used to break through the space blockade from both of them. The other party seems to have some other special abilities in the space curse."
Luke didn't look relaxed either.The forces behind these two men are worth exploring.The most important aspect of Hogwarts' so-called safety is the magical restriction that prohibits spatial movement.But now, in addition to Dumbledore, the principal, and Luke, the strong claimant, there are people who can use space to move within Hogwarts. This is indeed worth exploring.
While the two were talking, the two prisoners captured by Luke had come to their senses. After they understood their situation, they immediately wanted to activate the marks on their hands and then commit suicide.
Unfortunately, the imprint did not respond.
"Stop struggling. Dumbledore has cast a special spell here. It cannot be used unless there is a surge of magic above a certain level."
Luke told them the situation they were in without any worries.Dumbledore's magical restraint is really useful in this situation.It's a pity that the limitations of this thing are too great. After all, it can only be effective in such a small space.
And Luke can use magic at will within this restriction, but it's just a little sluggish.However, this kind of curse used to commit suicide often does not have much demand for the input of magical power. After all, people may not have sufficient magical power when they need to commit suicide.
Furthermore, it doesn't matter if there is, just because Luke can use magic at will, it doesn't mean that the two people in front of him can too.If anyone could really break the restrictions imposed by Dumbledore himself, then Dumbledore would be a bit embarrassed.
The two prisoners looked at each other, neither of them planning to speak.It seemed that he was planning to withstand Luke's interrogation.They are professionally trained people.What accomplishments can Dumbledore, a famous hypocrite, and Luke Gaunt, a young man, have in the field of punishment?
It would be absolutely easy for them to survive!
then……
"Shadows sink."
Luke uttered a spell that they had never heard of.Not to mention them, even Dumbledore had never heard of this spell. When Luke read it, he looked unfamiliar.
And after the tip of Luke's wand released two black clouds and merged into the brains of the two captives, the two captives seemed to have seen something very terrifying. They trembled and their eyes rolled. White, the teeth kept clashing with each other.
"A magic spell I've never seen before."
Dumbledore looked at Luke, and then he saw Luke's somewhat ferocious expression.
"A curse created by an ancestor who loved torturing his enemies. I learned it from his diary that was like a torture note."
Luke actually didn't like that ancestor's diary very much.Too perverted.Not a lustful pervert, this ancestor was particularly interested in both causing pain and suffering.All I can say is that it is really good.
Luke considers himself a normal person and is not very interested in this aspect of things.It can even be said to be relatively exclusive.
"The ancestor said in his notes that human beings' greatest fear is actually the unknown and loneliness. So this spell actually uses some scenes to stimulate this feeling. By the way, I also strengthened their perception of fear."
Luke's face was indifferent: "There is no increase in price for increasing the quantity. I would like to see if their mouths are really as hard as they imagine."
Luke really wanted to find out who was so ungrateful.
Do you really treat him like a soft persimmon?
One after another, if the tiger doesn't show off its power, are you really treating it as a sick cat?
