Chapter 308 Black Lake Line
When the whistle sounded, Ryan grabbed Harry who was about to undress, shook his head slightly, and looked at the others. Competitors from other schools looked ready, each of them wearing swimsuits under their wizarding robes. Now they all took off their jackets in the cold wind and moved their hands and feet, ready to go into the water.
In a few minutes, people from other schools were already in the water. Only Ryan and Harry were standing by the lake in their coats.
"Why don't Harry and the others take off their clothes now?" "Maybe they can appear at the bottom of the lake in an instant-" "By the way, I heard that Harry is in good shape, have you seen it?" The last sentence was heard by Ryan After arriving, he suddenly felt a sense of embarrassment, because he heard that the person who asked this question was a man.
"Okay, now it's our turn." Ryan waved his wand a few times, and soon, a small boat made of blue ice floated up from the water.
"The players at Hogwarts chose an unprecedented method to try to pass this game. I don't know what their results will be. Let's wait and see." Bagman's excited voice came from the referee table.
After climbing into the boat, Ryan tapped the side of the boat with his wand. The boat rushed towards the center of the lake like an arrow from the string.
"Take this and listen carefully to the movement in the water, and let me know if there is any abnormal sound." After going to bed, Ryan took out a long flesh-colored string from the bag on his waist and stuffed it into Harry ear, and then put the other end into the water.
"What is this?" Harry asked as he listened to the movement in the water as Ryan ordered.
"Retractable ears, the Weasleys and I's new invention, will soon be added to their mail-order list," Lane explained.
"Cool, wait, I think I heard singing." They were already a certain distance from the shore at this time, and Harry suddenly heard singing underwater.
"It should be a merman, I think we've found a place. Point me in which direction?" Ryan asked Harry, pointing his wand at the stern, and Harry quickly pointed out that the voice was in the direction of the north, near the center of the lake.
Ryan waved his wand to adjust the direction of the ship, and Harry asked at this time, "How do you know that the location where the merman sang is where we're looking."
"The Black Lake is too big, so they will definitely put our things in a conspicuous place. As far as I know, the most conspicuous thing under the Black Lake is the village of the mermaid, and it happens that their singing can also guide everyone. You must know that the bottom of the Black Lake is all mud and water plants, and the road signs placed are not easy to be seen.
And for wizards, the mermaid's singing guidance is more magical. "
Soon, the ice boat was getting closer and closer to where the song came from, and the lyrics became clear.
"To find what we took, you'll need to keep going—yes, this is the place," Harry said happily to Ryan, because now the mermaid's song had clearly pointed its destination. At this time, it was only about ten minutes before they left the starting point.
Soon the ice boat came to the top of the singing. At this time, Ryan and the two took off their jackets and took out a potion containing a sky-blue liquid from their armed belts and drank it.
As soon as the medicine entered his stomach, Ryan felt that his mouth and nose were beginning to breathe, and gills had grown under his ears. He endured the discomfort and said to Harry on the opposite side, "I have adjusted this underwater breathing medicine, and it only has an effective time of 20 minutes. Go down and take things up immediately." Harry made an ok gesture after hearing it. , and then the two plunged directly into the water.
Maybe because of the medicine, they didn't feel that the water was as cold and biting as when they touched it just now. The lake was dark and the visibility was very low. Ryan could only see things three or four meters away.
"Follow me." Ryan used his wand to draw a phrase composed of several light spots in the water, and then swam hard towards the place where the singing came. After five or six minutes, they saw a lot of rough stone dwellings appear on the bottom of the lake below them, and they were spotted with algae. There were faces in those dark windows...some faces that were nothing like the legends...
It is said that the half-length of the mermaid is very in line with the aesthetics of human beings. Unfortunately, this legend is only half correct. Only the mermaid in the Mediterranean area is more beautiful, and because the civilization of ancient Europe originated from the coast of the Mediterranean Sea, so The legend of the mermaid has spread all over the world.
And those guys at the bottom of the lake now belong to the Atlantic Mermaid, their skin is iron gray, and their dark green hair is long and disheveled. Their eyes were yellow, so were their mutilated teeth, and they wore pebbles strung with thick ropes around their necks. Looks more like a murloc.
The place where the singing was uttered was right below Ryan and the others, which looked like a small square. The square is surrounded by merman dwellings, and in the square there is a huge, rough statue of a merman. A group of mermaids gathered under the statue and sang Ryan the song they had just heard.
Well, they are still not the same as the murlocs, at least the song is as beautiful as the legend. However, these fish people never thought that someone would rush straight down from the water above their heads. After seeing Ryan and the others, the fish people's singing even paused for a while. The singing fish people looked at their heads curiously.
When he swam to the square, Ryan discovered that there were six bags made of water plants on the stone platform under the statue, which were tied to the stone platform by the water weed rope. In each cage is a gold medal with a rectangle the size of a palm. When you get closer, you can see that each gold medal has their signature on the golden egg at that time.
Walking on the water by boat is indeed faster than swimming. After counting the bags on the stone platform, Ryan came to a conclusion. After that, Ryan and Harry quickly found their gold medal, and then took out the dagger in their thigh and cut the bag and took out the gold medal. There is a groove above the gold medal. When Ryan inserted the crystal column into the groove, the surface of the gold medal immediately released white light, and then the crystal and the gold medal became one. Seeing this, Harry followed suit and completed his gold medal.
Ryan made an up gesture to Harry when he got the gold medal, and within a few minutes they were back on the water. At this time, it was discovered that there were still five or six minutes before the end of the drug effect, and the two still needed to soak in water for the time being.
In order not to delay time, Ryan made some handles on the bottom of the ice boat, and then the two grabbed the handles and let the ice boat lead them to the forbidden forest near the Black Lake.
Halfway through the boat, it's time to breathe the potion. Ryan and Harry hurriedly jumped onto the boat with a punting gang with both hands, and then under Ryan's command, the two immediately drank an orange potion on their waists. In a few minutes, the slightest water vapor came out of the two of them, and the chill in their bones was swept away.
"That's great, so I don't have to change clothes in the cramped boat." Harry gave Ryan a thumbs up after feeling the warmth on his body. "How can you think of preparing this potion"
Ryan looked at Harry with a foolish look, "It's said that this game is in the lake, so getting into the water is a high probability event, find something to warm up after the cold water comes up from the water in mid-February. It's definitely a must. I think so many players, I guess you can't think of this."
"Uh—" Harry smirked and touched his head. "You know I was just brought into the game by accident, and I'm definitely not as well prepared as you guys."
After hearing this, Ryan could only helplessly shake his head.
