Chapter 316: Some Things Cannot Be Fought without Fighting! (It’s All About Feelings, I’ll Add More by the Way, Please Vote for Me)

The Silent Disciple of Sequence 3 of the Prisoner Path has the ability to curse and transform, which can transform enemies or things into other biological forms while temporarily losing most of their characteristics and extraordinary abilities.

This ability is an innate ability brought to extraordinary people by the Silent Disciple potion, but it is also a specific application of mysterious knowledge.

And a certain Sage of the Second Sequence who was active at the end of the Fourth Era and chose the path of the Secret Seeker made a huge contribution to the restoration of occult knowledge in this field——

When he was promoted to a Sequence Four occultist, the blood of mythical creatures analyzed in his rituals came from an earthly angel in the path of a prisoner, an ancient evil creature in Sequence Two.

And this sage flexibly used the "mysterious reappearance" ability from the occultist and the "scroll transcription" ability of the professor of the six-scroll sequence to copy the information he had parsed.

And he succeeded in the end. The occult knowledge of many prisoners, including "cursed transformation", was transformed into scrolls by him, and could be learned by others.

Of course, this process is definitely not easy. After all, there are many mysteries about sequence potions and extraordinary characteristics that even true gods dare not explore easily.

Even though this sage was an angel on earth, the recorded knowledge could only play a less critical role without the support of corresponding extraordinary characteristics.

For example, if people from other channels cast curse transformation after learning relevant occult knowledge, the curse transformation will lose its greatest effect——

The core ability of "making the enemy temporarily lose most of its characteristics and extraordinary abilities" has been lost, leaving only the ability to transform people or things.

In this case, it seems that this ability is not practical in combat.

However, this also means that curse deformation can be used on oneself without affecting one's own combat power, and it will also be applicable to many special environmental situations.

After all, birds can fly, cheetahs are explosive, and fish swim fast not because of extraordinary characteristics, but because of their special body composition.

Harley found the relevant occult knowledge left by this sage in a ruins belonging to a powerful man from the Fourth Age.

Even though she relied on the witch's bonus to learning mysticism, and Harley's own talent was also very high, it still took her several years to learn this knowledge.

And Cursed Transfiguration is one of them.

Although the curse transformation currently controlled by Harley can only provide Harley with less than ten forms that can be maintained temporarily.

Fortunately, the mermaid form can be transformed using a talisman, and Harley happened to successfully make the corresponding talisman before the game.

As for the lines on the lower abdomen, on the one hand, they are also preparations for the smooth use of this ability;

On the other hand, Harley wants to reduce her power loss as much as possible, or add a layer of insurance.

Before entering the water, Harley wore a leather tights.

But now, the leather coat has turned into the mermaid's skin, and is isolated from the cold lake water.

"What did we see? Contestant Harley temporarily turned into a mermaid!"

Ludo obviously paid attention to Harley all the time, and keenly noticed that the shape she transformed into was different from ordinary fish.

"Oh my god, this is a miracle! Contestant Harley turned her legs into... what should be the tail of a golden mermaid in warm ocean waters!"

"No, to be precise, Harley used her own form as a basis to transform into a magical creature that is extremely rare in the entire wizarding world, the golden mermaid!"

"But... I remember, aren't Animagus unable to transform into the form of magical animals?"

"Could it be said that...we have witnessed the historic development of the field of transfiguration here?"

"A miracle, I can guarantee it with the few hairs I have left. We can say that we have witnessed a miracle! What a feat!"

Following Ludo's words, the audience suddenly became noisy, accompanied by excited shouts.

However, Professor Dumbledore on the referee's bench narrowed his eyes slightly and soon discovered part of the truth about Harry's form.

After receiving Professor Dumbledore's signal, Ludo immediately explained:

"Oh, it's really bad. It seems I can't save the little hair I have left."

"I just got an explanation from Dumbledore, the transfiguration expert. Unfortunately, our guess is not correct."

"What Contestant Harley uses is not an Animagus in the form of a magical animal, but a simple form of human transformation."

"It's just that the shape she transformed into looks very much like the legendary golden mermaid, so these misunderstandings arise."

"But in fact, Harley does not have the ability of the golden mermaid now."

"Of course, this is also a very amazing feat! After all, only wizards with extremely high attainments in the field of transformation can use this kind of magic!"

"I think the reason why player Harley chose to be like this is just to make it easier to swim underwater..."

Harry did not pay attention to the thoughts of Ludo, Professor Dumbledore and others on the shore.

She jumped forward lightly, like a thunderbolt passing through the air, and then plunged straight into the lake without causing any splash.

The figure quickly disappeared, leaving only the spread of ripples, proving that someone had been here before.

The scenery at the bottom of the Black Lake and on the water are completely different, it is a completely different world.

At the bottom of the lake, large swaths of undulating and tangled black water plants form an underwater jungle.

The silt at the bottom of the lake seems to have been trimmed, and it looks very wide and flat, with shiny pebbles scattered on it.

Small silver fishes swam briskly at the bottom of the lake, like darts flying in the water.

Occasionally, a few squids would pass by Harry's side, which seemed to be descendants of the giant squid in the black lake.

But Harry didn't stop to admire the scenery he was so familiar with.

She exuded a faint chill all over her body, piercing straight into the center of the Black Lake like a sharp sword.

At this time, there was a fluttering singing sound from that direction, very slight, but still pleasant to the ear.

But Harley doesn't need the help of mermaid singing.

After all, in the previous months of training, she and Fu Rong had already completely secured the location of the mermaid village.

Along the way, although Harry didn't deliberately release a threatening aura like the last night tour of the Black Lake with Hermione, he still didn't encounter many obstacles.

After all, although most aquatic magical animals don't have much brains, they at least have a little memory.

When Harry accompanied Fleur and Hermione into the water for training, various creatures in the Black Lake were more or less beaten.

Therefore, except for a few Grindylows who don't have eyes and don't have much memory, they almost all hide their bodies and don't want to show their heads at all.

As for those Grindylows who are not too long-eyed, considering that I am now live broadcasting in front of more than a thousand people.

So Harley didn't hit them too hard, he just beat them to a half-mutilation, and they can recover after recuperating for half a month at most.

"...Obviously, our original level wasn't particularly difficult for Harley."

On the shore, Ludo obviously didn't think these levels were too difficult for Harley,

"Oh, look! It's obvious that Harley is almost there!"

In less than ten minutes, Harry successfully arrived outside the mermaid village in the deepest part of the Black Lake.

A huge rock appeared in the turbid water at the bottom of the lake, on which many mermaids were painted with spears, chasing some creatures that looked like giant squid.

This is the pioneering history of the mermaid group in the Black Lake, and it is also the only signpost of the mermaid village.

After crossing the boulder, Harry slowed down, feeling something constantly.

Even though she deliberately slowed down like this, she still arrived in the mermaid village very quickly.

The mermaid village occupies a very large area at the bottom of the water. After all, there are only mermaids at the bottom of the Black Lake, which are humanoid intelligent creatures.

And the houses of the mermaids are more like dwellings randomly piled up with stones, or simply opened a hole in some hill-like boulders.

When Harley appeared, the mermaids poked their gray iron heads out of the cave curiously, shook their dark green messy hair, and stared at the foreign warrior carefully.

Most of the mermaids noticed Harley's fish tail immediately.

After recognizing the iconic fish tail of the legendary golden mermaid, they also smiled maliciously.

But when the eyes of these mermaids slowly moved along with Harley's figure, they noticed who the "golden mermaid" they were observing was.

Almost all the mermaids trembled, and many timid mermaids retracted their heads back into the house with a "sniff" sound.

Most of the mermaids immediately looked away, while the hand holding the stone spear trembled slightly, and they lowered their heads respectfully.

Some larger mermaids immediately rushed out and surrounded Harley like groupies, their faces full of respect and admiration.

Harley turned a blind eye to all this, and even felt a little bored.

She had already anticipated this phenomenon, and it started from the actual training.

After all, the mermaids have always been one of the strongest groups in the Black Lake, and naturally have many subsidiary groups.

Magical animals in the water like Grindylow are pets used by mermaids to look after their homes, similar to dogs domesticated by humans and Muggles.

When the Warriors are training, they will inevitably encounter Grindylow.

Faced with this kind of water ghost who doesn't have much brains and wants to hurt a wizard when they encounter it, the warriors will naturally not show mercy, and most of them repaired them severely.

And many of these Grindylows went back to complain to the mermaid.

As the saying goes, even when beating a dog, it depends on the owner's face. If his Grindylow was bullied, the mermaid's face would not be at stake.

So a group of young and energetic mermaids went out in groups, wanting to cause trouble for the wizards.

Then... they bumped into Harry, Hermione and Fleur who were traveling together for underwater combat training.

There was no way, after all, there were three of them, Harley, and they had the biggest goal. If the mermaids wanted to teach the wizard a little lesson, they would naturally choose the one with the biggest goal.

These mermaids bumped into the head of the Immortal Witch so naturally and walked around in front of the gate of hell.

Although Harley was merciful and did not kill him, she still beat the strongest warriors of the mermaid tribe to the point where they had to stay in bed for half a month to recuperate.

But what is surprising is that from then on, the mermaid group not only did not hate Harley, but instead revered Harley with mixed feelings of fear.

But this is understandable. After all, mermaids, aquatic creatures whose brains are much worse than centaurs, still follow the law of the jungle.

If wizards are weaker than mermaids, or if the mermaids cannot be made to realize that wizards are stronger than them, then the mermaid group will not talk to wizards at all, and even dare to shit and pee in the black lake, polluting drinking water sources.

But if the wizard is stronger than the mermaid and defeats the mermaid, then the mermaid will be the wizard's most obedient dog.

Otherwise, why could these Black Lake mermaids live obediently in the Black Lake for so long and often provide materials to the wizards at Hogwarts?

It wasn't because the four giants beat the newly arrived thorn-headed mermaids to death that the originally proud mermaids were willing to lower their heads.

And why do the mermaids respect Principal Dumbledore so much that they are even willing to assist wizards and participate in the Six Wizards Tournament only if Principal Dumbledore comes forward?

On the one hand, Professor Dumbledore understands the language of mermaids and can communicate with them;

On the other hand, Professor Dumbledore himself has a very high reputation and is kind.

But the most important reason, or the most critical reason——

Professor Dumbledore was also a proud young talent when he was young. He single-handedly overthrew the entire mermaid group and "visited" their sacred objects.

But now, Harley easily defeated the strongest recognized in the mermaid group, and even defeated them easily even when those strongest joined forces.

In the eyes of the mermaids, this kind of record is not too far from that of Professor Dumbledore, and it is obviously worthy of their pursuit!

So now, it is not difficult to understand that so many young and bold mermaids surround Harley as if they are escorting her.

So, it can be seen from this.

Some things just deserve a beating, and they can't do it without a beating!

(I’m talking about mermaid, please don’t get me wrong.)
