Chapter 632
Mermaid
Chapter 632 Mermaid
Underwater, Vader opened his eyes.
He reached out and touched the fish tail that had appeared below his waist. The scales were smooth, the tail was long and flexible, and the bones inside seemed to have turned into a flexible spring.
He swung it tentatively, and immediately his body shot forward like an arrow. The feeling of the water flowing over his skin was even more wonderful than he had imagined.
Vader touched his cheek again, and could feel an unusual bulge with his fingertips, with two long slits on the side.
He took out his magic wand and waved it, causing the water to ripple and an oval full-length mirror appeared in the water.
Vader floated in the water and looked into the mirror.
He did not become as ugly as the mermaid in the black lake. Above the waist, it was still his own body and face. But his hair seemed to have grown longer and was floating slowly and freely in the water.
There are two narrow slits under his ears, like black tattoos. These are the gills that the gilly grass has given him, allowing him to breathe freely even underwater, and the lake water will bring him the oxygen he needs for life.
His hands were not as flexible as before because there was a thin layer of webs between his fingers, but this did not prevent him from using his wand.
He swung his tail, smashed the mirror in front of him, and swam towards the depths of the lake.
He needed to further test his ability after transformation - how long could he maintain his transformation after becoming a mermaid? How fast could he swim? Could he dive to the deepest depths of the water like a mermaid?
……
"Mr. Harry Potter? Mr. Harry Potter?"
Harry was dreaming when he heard a voice calling him. He snorted and opened his eyes dazedly, and was startled by a face so close to him!
"Dobby?! No, you are not Dobby!" Harry quickly grabbed the wand, pointed at the other party and asked, "Who are you?"
As he spoke, he glanced at the curtains.
His voice was not small, but the other people in the dormitory didn't seem to be awakened.
"Shh-"
The strange house-elf raised a finger, signaling him to be quiet.
Harry's heart was pounding, and he subconsciously kept quiet and put on his glasses in a hurry.
"McGee is a friend of Mr. Weed Grey," the thin house-elf said softly. "Mr. Grey asked McGee to give these extra gillyweeds to Mr. Harry Potter."
"Vader?" Harry asked, relaxing a little. "What is it? Why didn't he just give it to me during the day?"
"Gillweed," McKee repeated the name. "It enables a man to breathe underwater, sir."
Harry immediately realized the effect of this herb. He glanced at the handful of gillyweed on the quilt and said doubtfully, "But... I have already mastered the Bubblehead Charm, so I don't need this."
McGee looked at him quietly and asked, "How long can Mr. Potter's Bubble Head Charm last?"
Harry: "Well... more than an hour..."
McGee then asked, "If the bubble is popped, or suddenly disappears, does Mr. Potter have any way to deal with it?"
Harry was speechless.
He learned some methods of protecting the bubble from Sirius, but he couldn't say that his bubble was absolutely foolproof.
McGee said nothing more. He bowed and disappeared from the curtains in an instant, leaving only the gillyweed on Harry's quilt.
Harry hesitated for a moment, but finally grabbed the handful of gillyweed and stuffed it under his pillow, and couldn't fall asleep anymore.
...Looking at the unused gillyweed, Wade had an idea and asked McGee to pass it on to Harry.
In the original book, Harry was able to pass the second task and make it to the end with the help of Gillyweed; while Fleur used the Bubblehead Curse, but had to leave the Black Lake because she was attacked, and she couldn't even save her sister.
Of course, there are only four warriors in the original book. As the representative of Beauxbatons, even if Fleur fails to complete the second task, she can still participate in the final competition.
But this time, if anyone was driven out of the lake by the magical creatures, they would probably be completely eliminated.
Now Harry seems to be stronger than in the original book, and is no longer helpless against the Black Lake. However, he may suffer the same fate as Fleur in the original book after mastering the Bubble Head Curse.
Wade didn't want Harry to leave the game too early, so he gave him the gillyweed.
February passed quickly, and it was already the 24th in the blink of an eye. After breakfast, Wade walked through the oak door and stood on the high steps at the entrance of the castle, the white breath he exhaled condensed in the cold air.
He saw layers of viewing platforms standing tall at the edge of the Black Lake in the distance. In front of the platforms were several huge flowing mirrors. Even from such a long distance, he could see the water plants swaying gently in the mirrors.
People passing by would pat him on the shoulder or back from time to time, saying "Come on." Wade no longer hesitated and walked across the grass toward the wet lakeshore.
"nervous?"
Michael quickly came up to him and asked.
Wade shook his head: "I am well prepared."
"Be careful." Michael glanced in the direction of other schools and said, "Those guys might team up to deal with you first."
"Don't worry." Wade said with a smile, "If I wasn't sure, I wouldn't have provoked them in the last game."
"That's good!" Michael waved his hand and said, "I'm going to the audience first. Do a good job, Wade! Let them all see what you can do!"
Wade also waved his hand and watched him run to the audience and sit next to Daphne.
The Slytherin students also became unusually excited. Except for a few who looked unhappy, most of them still hoped that the Hogwarts warriors would win. Wade even saw a student from the Serpentine College holding a banner with "Wade Grey" written on it.
Wade walked towards the referee's table and saw that the principals and most of the warriors had already arrived. Even the principals of the three eliminated schools reappeared and were chatting with others in a friendly manner.
"Release twenty more mother mirrors! I need more perspectives!" A wizard in a green vest shouted while pressing the communication pea: "What are you waiting for? Take out all your equipment!"
Several young men hurried over with a large box. When they reached the lake, they opened the box and tipped it down. Several small fish with blue light fell into the water with a splash. They turned around flexibly and dived into the water.
"This is the latest model of mother mirror, all modified to adapt to the underwater environment."
A smiling voice sounded from behind. Wade turned around and saw Marchionne, wearing a golden robe, striding towards him.
"Ved!" He opened his arms enthusiastically and said with a smile on his face, "It's great to see you!"
"Marchioni!" Wade smiled and hugged him. "I didn't expect you to come in person!"
"Of course!"
Marchionne said: "During the first event, the US division encountered an emergency and I had to rush to deal with it. I absolutely couldn't miss it this time!"
"correct……"
Without waiting for Wade to answer, Marchionne couldn't wait to say, "I heard that a special kind of transformation is popular in Hogwarts recently?"
