I'm the king of the roll at Hogwarts

Chapter 314 You Are the Dog
Viktor had indeed finished the battle, and he was now lying on the ground gasping for breath. That blasting-tailed skrewt was really difficult to deal with, and he had to seize a flaw before he found a chance to use a thunderbolt explosion to send it into the sky.

Viktor lay on the ground, sweating profusely, breathing heavily like a bellows, exhausted. He was really exhausted from running just now. Viktor swore in his heart that he would never run like this again.

If you run again, it will be useless.

As he lay on the ground gasping for breath, the rustling sound in the hedge maze around him began again.

He picked up the wand in despair. This time he really couldn't run away. He held the wand in his hand, staring straight ahead as if facing a formidable enemy.

Viktor had already decided in his heart that if he failed, he would die. He would rather be entangled to death by the blasting skrewt than raise his wand and send a distress signal in humiliation.

The rustling sound became louder and louder, and the hedge maze swayed more and more. Viktor prepared himself solemnly. Just when his heart was in his throat, a figure finally walked out of the hedge maze. He looked closely and saw that it was Cedric Diggory.

Cedric looked panicked, with smoke coming out of his sleeves.

"Hagrid's blasting-tailed skrewt!" Cedric shouted in panic, "It's too big - I just managed to escape, my God..."

Victor's expression changed immediately.

"Did you lead the skrewt here?" he asked unkindly, staring at the rustling hedge behind Cedric.

"Ah, I'm so panicked that I don't know where to go..." Cedric said with a dry laugh, and at the same time ran forward two steps, drew out his wand and stared at the direction he came from.

Ron in the commentary booth said with great joy: "Oh, it seems that our contestant Cedric is a bit unkind. He led the blasting-tailed skrewt to the exhausted Viktor. Poor Viktor...tsk tsk..."

"It is said that Hufflepuffs are honest and reliable, but now it seems that they are not so honest..." Li Jordan commented, causing a group of Hufflepuff classmates to glare at him.

The situation in the maze was not optimistic. Both of them were a little out of breath, and Viktor, who seemed to have a higher fighting ability, was exhausted.

Viktor said quickly, "We'll settle our accounts later. Now I want to tell you that you have to find the right time to cast the Thunderbolt Explosion on the tail of the Exploding Skrewt. They are very afraid of this spell, which will blow them up into the sky... Okay, I'm done. Be careful. If there is any danger, raise your hand to signal, and I will leave you behind and run away without hesitation!"

"I should be the one to say this." Cedric snorted, "You should be the one to run. There is no retreat in Hogwarts!"

Viktor looked at Cedric in surprise. He didn't expect that this seemingly weak and frail boy could be so tough. He smiled and said, "Let's wait and see, Diggory. I hope you are not just good at talking."

With that, the blast-tailed skrewt emerged from the hedge.

Wow, this skrewt is bigger than the two Viktor had seen before. If his visual observation is correct, it is almost as big as an elephant.

"What kind of monster is your gamekeeper? Merlin's socks..." Viktor said in astonishment, "This thing... This thing is too big, my Virgin Mary..."

"It's normal for them to be a little wild." Cedric said very objectively and calmly, "After all, Hagrid himself is quite wild, so it's not surprising that the things he cultivates are quite wild."

He estimated that his physical strength was much stronger than Viktor's, and he didn't need to run very fast - just a little faster than Viktor would be enough.

Fortunately, the two of them worked well together. Although the blasting-tailed skrewt was huge, its movements were extremely clumsy. Although it was a bit difficult to fight, with the combined efforts of the two, the blasting-tailed skrewt was flipped to the ground, and then the magic spell easily sent it into the sky.

"Oh my God, this is so barbaric, they shouldn't be treated like this!" Hagrid cried out loudly, his face full of heartache, but no one understood him. Instead, they all looked at him as if he were a monster.

You are crazy, you actually think that twisted thing is cute?
Hagrid's aesthetic taste has always been disastrous, and his classmates at Hogwarts have long been accustomed to it.

Actually, there is nothing wrong with this exploding-tail snail. It is just a little ugly, a little smelly, and has a bad temper.

The two men, who had just recovered from their shock, looked at each other. Cedric opened his mouth to speak when a scream was heard in the distance.

"It's Furong!" Viktor gasped twice and looked up at Cedric: "She's in trouble!"

"I hope she's okay." Cedric glanced at him, then turned and left without saying a word.

The commentators didn't have time to care about what the two of them were doing. They switched the view to Furong's position and saw Furong retreating with a look of fear on her face.

Following her perspective, everyone got a glimpse of the full picture of the danger Fleur was facing. Well... I thought it was something new, but it was still a blasting-tailed skrewt produced by Hagrid.

But to be honest, this blasting-tailed skrewt is completely different from the others. The edges of its tentacles are bright black and bright white. Louis concluded almost instantly that this blasting-tailed skrewt must have been contaminated by evil energy.

"Fleur is in danger." He tilted his head to find Catherine, but suddenly realized that Catherine was also in the maze.

He called Sakuya over and called up a tablet-like device to see what was going on with Catherine.

After the picture fluctuated briefly, Catherine's perspective appeared on his tablet, and in front of her was the Goblet of Fire.

"Why so fast?" Louis was stunned for a moment, but before he could think about it, Catherine's lightning had already hit the "Goblet of Fire".

Oh, okay, it's a mimicry magical creature. After being electrocuted by Professor Yang's Wrath, it twitched and revealed its original form, which looks like a small salamander.

There are also signs of corruption by evil energy on the tips of this salamander's hands and tail.

Louis calmly stuffed the tablet into Sakuya's body, tapped his fingers, took out an amber object, pressed it twice, and put it on his ear.

It was still the latest Zerg technology, a simple telephone made using Kypa amber and mantis technology, as well as a little bit of magic, but it was still far from the level of later generations.

The person who answered the phone was Swarm Guard Hisek, who was taking a bath in the prefect's bathroom.

"Bring the Sha Energy Detector. It's on the Quidditch field. It's urgent." Louis lowered his voice and instructed, "Remember to ask Kilruk to send it over. I suspect there is a problem here."

"Wait a moment." Hisek immediately rose from the water, making a splashing sound. A moment later, Kilruk flapped his wings and flew over from outside the field, landing next to Louis.

Louis regretted not telling him to keep a low profile.

"I think you're afraid that others don't know," Louis said, holding out his hand: "Where's the Sha energy counter?"

Kilruk took out a small orange object and handed it to Louis. It had a dial and a needle on it. It looked like some kind of detector. Kilruk clicked and warned him, "You might need to be careful. This thing makes a loud noise when it sounds the alarm."

As he spoke, he raised his hand to his ear and made an explosion gesture: "I'm afraid you'll be startled."

"I understand, thank you." Louis nodded, then stood up, turned and walked to the back.

As he walked, he kept an eye on the needle on the dashboard. First, he looked at the guest of honor and faculty seats, and there was no problem. Then he walked to the stands and walked around a long circle, and there was still no problem. The needle on the dashboard was still very stable, and it didn't even sway left and right as he walked.

Louis shook his head and glanced at Kilruk who was eating snacks in the distance. Since there were no evil spirits in the main guest seats and the entire arena, was it possible that the troublemaker was hiding in the maze?
He thought to himself and walked towards the edge of the maze.

Mr. Bagman was explaining passionately. When he saw Louis coming, he immediately put down his wand and walked over to stop Louis: "You can't go any further, Your Highness. There is a competition field ahead."

"I know." Louis looked at the dark entrance and handed the thing to Mr. Bagman. "Go, hold this thing and stand at the door of the maze. As a staff member, you should have this authority, right?"

"Of course." Mr. Bagman nodded, took the dashboard from Louis, and walked to the entrance of the maze.

Almost in an instant, the counter began to alarm frantically. The beeping sound scared Mr. Bagman - a real jump. I really don't know where a middle-aged man got such a strong jumping ability.

"Okay, come back." Louis called to Mr. Bagman and asked him to come back quickly.

Mr. Bagman stared at the gadget in his hand with lingering fear. He was almost scared to throw it away just now. He never thought that such a small thing would make such a loud noise. He returned the thing to Louis and asked hesitantly, "Your Highness, what is this...?"

"This?" Louis chuckled. "It's an instrument for detecting dark magic. You can understand it this way."

As he said this, he glanced at the dashboard, and the needle on it had already reached the end. He looked at the entrance of the maze with a serious expression, and immediately took out his phone to make a call.

The phone was connected and Catherine's voice was heard.

"what happened?"

"There's a small problem. The evil energy pollution in the maze has exceeded the standard." Louis said in a deep voice: "Be careful and come back as early as possible."

On the other end of the phone, Catherine was silent for a moment, then asked in a low voice: "I just heard a scream, was it Furong...?"

"She should be, but she's fine. I think she can still run. She was just frightened. You know Hagrid's blasting skrewt is a bit outrageous..." Louis laughed and continued, "Okay, I'm going to hang up. After all, I can't communicate too much with the players off the field. Just be safe."

After that, Louis hung up the phone.

At the same time, a red flare rose slowly above the maze and exploded in the air.

The commentator was also saying that Marilyn seemed to be in great trouble. Louis glanced at Mr. Bagman and said to him, "Should we send someone in to pick up the Chabanol player?"

"It would be great if you could help us," Mr. Bagman said, pulling out a compound eye tentacle. "But we need to glue this thing to our head first. You should understand that this is to prevent the rescue team from cheating out of selfish motives."

"I understand." Louis smiled and took the tentacle and stuck it on his head.

After sticking it on, it felt like there was an extra tentacle, but there was no way to control the thing to move. The rescue team not only included him, but also Professor Snape and Sirius, so they were counted as one team.

"Are you ready?" Professor Snape looked at Louis and didn't say much. Seeing Louis's puzzled look, Snape looked back at Sirius and explained, "When you look for someone in a maze, you always need a dog."

"Who are you calling a dog?" Sirius asked angrily.

Snape looked him up and down and asked contemptuously, "Isn't your Animagus a dog?"

Sirius choked and chose to swallow his anger.

You are right this time, but I won't let you off so easily next time.

"I say, you two, stop arguing." Mr. Bagman advised earnestly, "The Chabanol contestant inside is in danger. I suggest you leave as soon as possible. I hope that no one will be killed in this Goblet of Fire..."

Snape glanced at Mr. Bagman, said nothing, and walked straight into the dark maze. Louis and Sirius looked at each other and followed him in.

Since it was no longer the start of the game, the three of them could still see each other. Snape walked in front, and Sirius transformed into a big black dog.

"How should we find it?" Louis asked.

Snape said nothing, but took out a towel and handed it to Sirius.

Sirius sniffed, then jumped up after a while and barked twice. Louis looked at the towel with interest and asked curiously, "What is this?"

"As you can see, this is contestant Marilyn Chabanol's towel." Snape's tone was a little impatient, but he still explained to him: "You also know that dogs are creatures that track others by scent, so..."

Having said that, he shrugged and didn't continue talking, but still looked at Sirius with a teasing look, and Sirius glared at him back. Although he couldn't speak human language, Louis heard the British curse from the two "woofs".

Louis finally understood why Snape patiently explained to him the reason despite being impatient. It turned out that he was waiting here... As long as it could make Sirius unhappy, Snape would rather pinch his nose and let himself be unhappy for a while...

Well, I forgot to ask for leave yesterday. Sorry.
