Chapter 696 What, the Game Is over Before I Even Start?

Boom~

As the two of them ran wildly, the tails of the snails following them would spurt out huge flames from time to time, approaching at an unimaginable speed. The faint vibration on the ground just now was caused by them.

In front of the two of them, some giant spiders appeared out of thin air on the originally smooth road, waving their forelimbs ferociously at them. Harry understood that this was a demonstration before the attack.

"Petrificus~(Everything is petrified)"

"Reducto~(Shattered to pieces)"

…

Harry struggled to cast spells one after another, petrifying a giant spider and blowing its head off. However, in the gap, another giant spider jumped directly from the side hedge and rushed towards him.

When Harry realized something was wrong, eight shining black eyes and sharp mouthparts were already in front of him. At this moment, Harry finally understood that these spiders crawled over from the tall hedge.

Only now did he realize that it was obviously too late. The stench emanating from his mouth hit his face and almost knocked Harry unconscious.

Fortunately, Ivan beside him cast a spell in time to blow away the giant spider, and used a blasting spell to clear away all the spiders blocking the way.

Harry slowly breathed a sigh of relief, but he could not let go of what he had been holding on to. He turned his head and glanced, and saw that the blast-ended snails were getting closer and closer to them under the propulsion of the flame jet.

"Ivan, what should we do now?" Harry asked anxiously. He felt that it was impossible to outrun these monsters with his own two legs.

"Don't worry, it's not difficult to solve them!" Ivan said with relief.

When he reached the end of a passage, Ivan stopped running away and stopped directly, waving his wand and pointing at the blast-ended snails.

An astonishing wave of magic power swept out in all directions with the wand as the center. Under the influence of the transformation spell, thick vines extended out from the hedge one after another, forming a large network criss-crossing each other.

Several snails that were close to the front didn't have time to stop and collided directly with them. The terrifying impact broke the strong tree vines.

But this "big net" is too dense and thick. Falling into it is like walking into a quagmire. A steady stream of trees and vines pour out from both sides, winding and tying up the bulky Explosive-tailed Skrewts. Strictly.

Harry ran for a while, and when he heard no movement behind him, he stopped out of breath. When he turned his head, he was shocked to find that the entire corridor was blocked by dense vines, and he could vaguely see something inside. Things are struggling.

"Since you can deal with them, why were we running just now?" Harry asked strangely.

Ivan didn't answer and pointed to the hedge above.

Harry looked up following Ivan's direction and saw several giant spiders crawling over from the other side of the hedge.

"You see, there are too many of them! The fighting is endless..." Ivan explained, and waved his wand to knock down the spiders one by one.

Harry nodded, and then he understood that the key to victory was to take the trophy back, and there was really no need to waste it here with them.

The two of them ran wildly all the way through the maze. Apart from the towering hedges, there were only monsters that attacked from time to time. If Ivan hadn't known that he was going along the passage that was blown up when he came, he would have almost doubted himself. Will you get lost?

About half a minute later, Ivan led Harry through the last corner, and the exit of the maze finally appeared in front of them.

To Ivan's expectation, Beauxbatons' warrior Fleur Delacour was standing at the edge of the exit, as if she had just entered the maze...

When she saw Ivan running over with the trophy, Fleur was stunned.

"Hi, Furong!" Seeing that Furong had no intention of attacking him, Ivan greeted her kindly, and then ran straight past Furong without stopping.

Fleur couldn't react until Ivan disappeared behind her, with a look of astonishment on her face.

Is the game over now?

But she just came in...

…

"Mr. Bagman, isn't it time yet?"

At the same time, on the field outside the maze, Krum anxiously asked Ludo Bagman next to him.

It has now been almost seven minutes since Ivan set off. Although as a warrior he cannot see the picture in the crystal ball, based on the feedback from the surrounding audience, Krum feels that Ivan may have successfully won the trophy. , and he still had to wait here.

"It's almost... it's almost... wait a minute!" Bagman didn't want to pay attention to Krum at all. He stared at the picture in the crystal ball with his eyes and dealt with it very perfunctorily.

Krum had no choice but to stand there helplessly, continuing to wait anxiously.

About ten seconds later, Bagman suddenly became excited. Just when Krum thought he was going to announce that he was officially starting the game, he saw Ivan running out of the maze with a hand in his hand. A golden trophy, held high, was very dazzling.

"Great! I declare that victory belongs to the warrior of Hogwarts - Ivan Hals!" Bagman shouted with a lung-breaking voice, and his voice resounded throughout the entire arena under the blessing of the Loud Curse. .

In fact, before Bagman spoke, Dumbledore had already applauded, and the little wizards in the audience cheered even more enthusiastically.

After all, the crystal ball that had been suspended in mid-air faithfully recorded everything that happened in the maze, including the scene where Ivan successfully obtained the trophy.

Krum was completely stunned and stood there in a daze.

He hasn't even started yet and the game is over?

After Ivan walked out of the maze, Harry soon followed, followed by the lonely Fleur.

However, when Fleur saw Klum, who was still standing in front of the maze, not understanding the situation, a smile suddenly appeared on her face, because she discovered that she was not the unluckiest one.

"Very good, the warriors have all come out..." Bagman turned to look at Krum with a smile, patted his shoulder, and said seriously. "Let's go together, Krum. The referees will make a simple ranking based on the Warriors' performance in the third game..."

Although the candidate for the championship has been determined now, the remaining warriors still need to be ranked.

"But...Mr. Bagman, I haven't gone in yet..." Krum asked hurriedly.

"So, I'm afraid you will be at the bottom this time, Mr. Krum!" Bagman looked at Klum sadly, but there was a sense of gloating in his words.
