Chapter 314 Beyond the Crystal Ball Is a Bigger Crystal Ball
"Krom, what's up?"
Harry actually had a good impression of Krum, after all, he was the best player in the World Cup.
However, Krum completely ignored Harry, he stretched out his wand and pointed it high into the sky.
A red light like fireworks rushed out from the tip of the wand, flew into the sky, suddenly exploded, and bloomed like fireworks.
Then, a huge skull pattern appeared, with a big python wrapped around it.
"That mark!"
Harry's eyes widened suddenly, remembering what happened on the Quidditch field.
That's right! It's the thing that looks like the Dark Mark!
At that time, George was wrongly accused of releasing the mark and was investigated by the Ministry of Magic.
Unexpectedly...
Is it Krum?
Thinking about it carefully, he was indeed there at the time.
Harry was shocked, and there was an uproar in the stands.
George was already gritting his teeth, wishing he could rush into the magic curtain and have a physical exchange with Krum.
From childhood to adulthood, he has always been the only one who teased others, but Krum didn't say a word, and he suffered a great loss!
Recalling his father's attitude of running for him in the Ministry of Magic, George felt that he would never forgive Krum in his life!
"Calm down, George!"
Fred was the first person to notice George's abnormality. He comforted him, "It's okay, don't think about it anymore, it's all over."
George's chest rose and fell violently, and it took a long time to calm down.
"Sooner or later, I will settle this account with him!" He gritted his teeth and said.
George's reaction was already very big, but someone in the stands reacted more than him.
"No!!!"
Karkaroff covered his face and screamed in pain.
The headmaster who just claimed to treat every student equally, now fell into madness for his favorite student.
"This is impossible! Krum was controlled! He is also a victim!"
Karkaroff no longer cared to hide his identity as a Death Eater, he shouted directly to the people around him.
"That's the Imperius Curse! I can recognize it!"
"Calm down, Igor."
Dumbledore helped him sit down, "We will figure out everything."
"Dumbledore, what are you waiting for!"
Karkaroff's expression was distorted, and he accused Dumbledore, "Krum had an accident! It was the power of the dark magic. You should stop the game at this time to protect the students!"
"The key to stop the crystal ball is not in my hand, but in Bagman's."
Dumbledore sighed, "But now, Bagman has disappeared."
Disappeared?
Karkaroff noticed at this time that the director of the Sports Department, who was originally sitting in the front, had disappeared at this time.
He disappeared in full view of everyone.
"When did he..."
"I don't know, Igor."
Dumbledore's expression at this time was more solemn than Karkaroff had ever seen.
The last time the old headmaster felt this powerless was when he faced the three resurrected founders at the same time.
"If I'm not mistaken, the Bagman we saw before should be someone else's disguise."
Dumbledore stretched out his hand and waved it to the distance, and the crystal ball flew into his hand.
"If you force the crystal ball to open, the safety of the students inside cannot be guaranteed."
Looking from the outside into the crystal ball, you can still see the exquisite island.
"The only two ways now are to find Bagman and get the key, or for the warriors inside to crack it from the inside.
"Other than that, we can only wait."
Dumbledore's hand was very steady, and the ball did not shake at all.
The magic curtain was still broadcasting the situation inside the crystal ball, and Harry and Krum had already started fighting.
"Crucio!"
"Fainted! "
The two spells collided with each other, connecting into a dazzling magic line in mid-air, and sparks like magma burst out and spread in all directions.
The surrounding air was squeezed by this force, making a whistling sound.
Harry then waved his wand, trying to control the surrounding stones to fly towards Krum.
But Krum just used a simple barrier spell to instantly block the flying stones, and they fell to the ground one after another.
Bruce watched from the side and found that Harry's state was a little strange.
If Harry seemed extremely nervous before the game started, even after drinking the calming potion, he still looked guilty.
But now, he has completely entered the combat state, and he has been fighting back and forth with Krum, and he is not at a disadvantage for the time being.
"So you are a practical player? "
Bruce came to a conclusion in his mind, and he almost got to know Harry all over again.
Good job.
No mistake!
Next, Bruce didn't plan to watch Harry fight anymore.
He drew out his wand and chanted a spell.
"Petrify all!"
Krum was trying to avoid Harry's magic at this time, and didn't notice Bruce's attack next to him.
He was hit by the spell as expected, and half of his body was instantly petrified. He couldn't stand steadily and knelt on one knee.
"Huh——"
Seeing the other party like this, Harry breathed a sigh of relief instantly.
"Be careful, Harry."
Bruce, who was experienced in combat, guessed that Harry would suffer a big loss when he saw Harry like this.
Sure enough, Krum did not give up. He endured the pain, supported his body with his wand, and chanted the last powerful spell.
"Avada Kedavra!"
A flash of green light shot towards Harry.
Harry was caught off guard by this move, and he had no time to react, but then a stone wall appeared in front of him, blocking the fatal spell for him.
"Dizzy!"
Then Bruce knocked Krum unconscious, making him lose the last threat.
"Logically, you are dead now."
Bruce put away his wand at this time and looked at Harry, "Remember in the future, if the opponent has not completely lost his combat effectiveness, don't take it lightly."
Harry did not respond.
He was still in shock from brushing shoulders with death.
The people in the stands were already in panic.
Avada Kedavra?
Used by a student?
"Karkaroff, I'm afraid you will have to explain it later."
Dumbledore's tone finally turned cold, and his address to Karkaroff also lost its original intimacy.
"Where did a student who hasn't graduated yet learn the Avada Kedavra?"
"I didn't teach him..."
Karkaroff subconsciously retorted. He didn't lie. He had a criminal record, so how could he dare to teach Krum such a thing?
He was also wondering, where could Krum learn it from?
Some little girls in the stands were already crying. They wanted to leave the stands and return to the safety of the castle.
But the teachers stood up and stopped them from walking around.
This was a joint order from Dumbledore and other headmasters.
Perhaps, those children didn't notice that there was an invisible barrier on the dome of the Quidditch field, preventing them from entering or leaving.
Dumbledore had a crystal ball with a miniature world in his hand.
And he himself was locked in a bigger crystal ball.
