Chapter 335 Playing the Pig to Eat the Tiger

Harry continued to walk forward aimlessly.

He seemed not to be very enthusiastic about reaching the center of the maze to get the final trophy, but he was observing the surroundings like enjoying the scenery, but in fact there was nothing worth appreciating around him.

After getting rid of the blasting skrewt, he continued to walk forward for about seventy or eighty steps, and a golden cloud blocked his way.

He seemed to be very interested in this strange thing, muttering to himself, as if he was guessing which professor this thing was borrowed from.

Then he casually used a spell to stop it.

But this golden cloud was obviously not a spell cast by anyone, and Harry's spell-breaking had no effect on it, and it still quietly blocked the center of the road.

Staring at the cloud, he habitually touched his chin and thought for a few seconds. He didn't think that there would be a level in this maze that students couldn't pass.

Since the spell-breaking of this thing is useless, and it itself is not a physical entity, normal spells will not work, then the only solution is to walk directly over it?

Logically, if a normal Gryffindor thought, he should have just rushed through at this time.

But unfortunately, Harry was not so reckless.

Anyway, he didn't want to win any championship. If this road didn't work, he could just change another road.

Then he turned around, returned to the previous intersection, and chose another road to continue walking forward.

This time, he had just taken a few steps when a scream suddenly came from not far away!

Harry frowned immediately.

It was a female voice, and the only female who entered the maze was Fleur.

He didn't hesitate and ran quickly in the direction of the sound. Soon he saw Fleur lying on the ground unconscious in the dim vision.

She was obviously attacked by someone. Her face was a little pale, but her breathing was still stable. She just fainted and there was no danger of life.

After confirming her condition, Harry directly used his wand to shoot a red spark into the sky, providing coordinates to the security guards outside the maze, so that they could come and rescue Fleur.

The fastest person to arrive here was Hagrid. He took Fleur out of the maze in front of Harry, and before leaving, he did not forget to wish Harry good luck.

Harry just chatted with Hagrid for a few words, and after making sure Fleur was safely sent out, he continued to move forward.

To be honest, he actually thought Fleur could do well in this competition, but her luck was really too bad.

The possibility that the person who knocked her out was a monster in the maze was very low. If it was a contestant, Cedric basically had no chance. A gentleman like him, even if he had a conflict with Fleur and had no choice but to knock her out, would use sparks to wait for the security guard to take her out.

The biggest possibility was undoubtedly only Viktor Krum.

Harry was thinking and touching his chin, and at this moment, he suddenly heard Cedric's voice.

"What do you want to do!" His voice was very urgent, as if he had encountered something urgent.

Then, no one responded to him, but a spell sounded.

"Crucio!"

The air was filled with Cedric's screams, and Harry's face turned ugly.

He quickened his pace, walked around a corner, and then saw the scene in front of him.

Cedric was lying on the ground twitching, and Krum was pointing his wand at him, looking like he was about to use the next Cruciatus Curse.

Harry pointed his wand at him without hesitation. Krum had just discovered him at this time, but Harry didn't give him any time to react.

"Fall!"

The red light hit Krum without any surprise. He stopped suddenly, pounced forward, and lay face down on the ground without moving.

Harry walked to Cedric with a frown.

"Why did he use the Cruciatus Curse on you? If he wanted to make you lose the threat, wouldn't he just use the Petrification Curse or the Stunning Curse?"

Cedric was panting heavily. Fortunately, he only took a Cruciatus Curse, and Krum was only able to use such a difficult black magic, and was not proficient in it.

Otherwise, even if it was just for a moment, it would take him a long time to recover.

"I don't know... I can't believe it. He sneaked up behind me, and when I saw him, he used that spell directly... It's illegal to use the Unforgivable Curse on people! Doesn't he know?"

Cedric stood up from the ground with difficulty, his body still shaking.

"Did you hear Fleur's cry?"

Harry nodded.

"I found her. She was probably knocked unconscious by Krum. I was the one who released the red spark. Hagrid has taken her to a safe place."

Hearing his words, Cedric raised his wand with trembling hands and fired a red spark into the sky.

"We can't leave him here either, otherwise who knows if some monster will come and eat him."

They just helped Krum release a bunch of sparks to guide the security guard, and didn't wait here all the time.

Harry and Cedric then naturally continued to move forward together.

Harry didn't know what Cedric was thinking. Anyway, he didn't care whether he got the trophy or not. Now that Fleur and Krum were eliminated, the championship would definitely fall into the hands of the Hogwarts warriors. This was beyond doubt.

The further they went, the darker it got, until a big, scary lion blocked their way.

The lion had a woman's head, and it was one of the famous magical animals in the wizarding world - the Sphinx.

"You are already very close to your goal. The fastest way is to pass through me."

"But if you want to pass through me like this, you must answer my riddle. If you guess it right once, I will let you pass. If you don't guess it right, I will pounce on you. If you don't answer me, I will... What are you doing? What are you doing! Woo woo woo...!"

Harry didn't even want to give her a chance to speak, so he waved his wand and let the hedges that served as the walls of the maze grow faster, and tied her up at lightning speed, and blocked her mouth by the way.

Cedric watched Harry do all this in amazement, and he could only think of one thing in his heart now.

When did Harry Potter become so strong!

He had always been playing dumb in school!

While he was in a daze, Harry had already walked past the Sphinx.

"Are you coming with me, or are we going to separate?"
