Chapter 276 Barty Crouch Jr.!

The darkness in the maze was beyond Louis' imagination.

There were shadows of hedges everywhere on the road. Because it was almost dark and there were no lights in the maze, the moment Louis rushed into the hedge maze, the entrance behind him was covered by layers of bushes.

"Lumos!"

After walking for about ten minutes, the first fork in the road finally appeared in front of him. Louis thought briefly and chose the path on the right.

The magic maze is random, and the hedges will constantly change, forcing warriors to choose the same path. In the end, several warriors will inevitably meet and fight, but the premise is that all warriors have passed the previous tests before encountering them. .

The road Louis walked was dense and dense, but from time to time there would be a gloomy and cold breath. The further he walked, the colder he felt. Suddenly he smelled a sour smell, and a rotting corpse accompanied by a shrill howl. Dragging his twisted lower body, his eyes were sunken, Ming rushed toward Lewis with a broken arm.

"Funny."

It was an extremely understatement of magic, and he could see the poor acting skills of the Boggart in front of him at a glance. The death of his companions was what he feared most, but the Boggart had no influence on him at all.

The Boggart, who was attacked by magic, turned into a balloon and immediately floated away from the side. Without even looking at it, he crossed the obstacle and walked deeper.

Bagman's whistle blew a second time, indicating that Harry and Fleur had entered the maze. Louis did not hesitate. Although he had an advantage over anyone else, the maze was ridiculously large. No one knew the specific locations of the others, and no one knew whether he was the warrior closest to the Triwizard Cup.

After repelling three more Blast-Ended Skrewts, the bushes nearby suddenly became commotion. Louis held his wand warily and looked at the road ahead. However, at the corner not far away, Fleur Delacour came from over there. After rushing out, she looked a little disgraceful and ran forward in a state of embarrassment, with a large devil's net following behind her.

"Get out of the way! The fire is raging!"

It seemed that thanks to the wind, Louis's fire spell was surprisingly strong, almost forming a huge curtain of flames. The fire burned straight through the bushes, and the devil's nets seemed to have seen their natural enemies and fled quickly, but some of the devil's nets that could not be avoided were mercilessly burned by the flames.

Lewis also didn't expect that the flames would cause such damage, perhaps due to the dry environment in the maze. This is simply setting fire to the mountain and sitting in jail.

"Thanks."

Fleur gasped for air, and she told Louis that not long after she entered the maze, she was attacked from both sides by trolls and devil's nets. The giant monster was finally knocked unconscious, but was entangled in the devil's net and unable to escape.

"It's better to be careful. There are dangers everywhere in the maze."

"Does the previous agreement still count?" After patting the dust on her body, Furong stood up from the ground.

"Let's go." Lewis looked at her and did not answer her directly, but just made a gesture with her.

Just when the two decided to go on the road together, Ludo Bagman's third whistle blew, and Krum announced that he would join the battlefield.

The two groped around in the maze, and of course they sometimes used pointing spells to find the direction, but more often than not they found dead ends formed by green fences, and they had to walk back for a while. There were almost no obstacles in the second half of the maze. They only encountered an eight-eyed spider, which was obviously the child of Aragog in the Forbidden Forest. The last time they met the spider king, they did not leave a good impression on it. , this time, when the eight-eyed spider saw that the person coming was Lewis, it couldn't help but flinch, with anger and fear.

There was also a stone warrior. Although it did not have as much hatred as the eight-eyed spider just now, it was not weak. It took the two of them a lot of effort to repel it.

After passing the stone warriors, the road ahead suddenly became different, and the surrounding fog began to darken. Louis had to use the direction spell to point the way again, and at the same time released his wolf-shaped patron saint to open the way.

After crossing another path, a light suddenly appeared in front of them. Louis and Fleur held their breath almost at the same time. Yes, the Triwizard Tournament trophy was placed in front of them, almost only a few steps away.

"Fleur! Don't go! It's dangerous!"

Louis hurriedly reminded Fleur, but it was still a little late. Fleur, who was driven by interests and glory, had already taken the lead and rushed forward. The moment her fingers were about to touch the trophy, a strong shock wave spread from the trophy to the surrounding areas.

Fleur was knocked to the ground by this swing, and she was a little delirious. From behind the trophy, another warrior came out. He was holding a wand, and it was Victor Krum.

"I didn't expect that it would be you two who got here first."

Krum smiled, the wand in his hand moved slightly, and the hibiscus lying on the ground was moved to one side by his magic.

"How can Lord Voldemort's plan be interfered with by others? Now I just need to kill you and wait for Harry Potter to arrive." He licked his lips and approached Louis step by step.

"Sure enough, it was you." Louis did not let down his guard. He knew that the man in front of him was a real Death Eater. "Mr. Crouch, you must have killed him too. You didn't even let your biological father go." , Barty Crouch Jr.!”

"That's his own fault! Damn old man, the Imperius Curse actually failed at the critical moment." Barty Crouch Jr. yelled at him, "But you are so cruel, you actually used black magic on me underwater. What will happen to you if Dumbledore and the others find out about this."

"I don't know what will happen to you, but you will definitely go to Azkaban." Louis smiled, "Your plan is useless. Harry Potter will not touch the Triwizard Cup."

Because he heard the rapid footsteps behind him, Harry, the last warrior in the maze to reach the Triwizard Cup, was looking at the confrontation between Louis and Krum with some surprise.

"I was delayed by the Sphinx, Louis, you guys..."

"Don't go there, Harry, he's not Victor Krum." Louis grabbed Harry who was about to step forward, "He's Barty Crouch Jr."

"Little Barty..." Harry seemed to remember something, "That Death Eater??"

Dumbledore once showed him that memory, it was Barty Jr. who was betrayed by Karkaroff and imprisoned in Azkaban.

"Hahahahaha."

Barty Crouch Jr. was a little crazy, but he didn't panic at all because his plan was exposed.

"Do you really think that the door key needs to be touched to activate it?"

Barty Crouch Jr. slowly pointed his wand at the Triwizard Cup behind him, and then a spell burst out from his wand.

"Expelliarmus!"

The red light of the disarming spell hit Barty Crouch Jr.'s wrist, causing his wand to fall out of his hand, but before that, his spell had hit the surface of the trophy.

As if some space power had been triggered, everything around seemed to be sucked into the trophy. The powerful tearing force did not allow Louis or Harry to react. He only had time to kick Fleur, who was lying on the ground, into the space. The power of magic is outside.

With a sudden spin, the two of them disappeared into the center of the maze together with the Triwizard Cup.
