Hogwarts: This wizard wants to improve too much

After the game, we celebrated in the hall.

At night, we returned to the Ravenclaw common room, where cheers and noises broke out again.

The tables and chairs were piled with small mountains of cakes and various candies, as well as pots of pumpkin juice and butter beer.

Some students also set off filiba fireworks on the side, and many stars and sparks flashed in the air.

There were several more flower scrolls on the empty walls in the common room, all of which were images of the spells used by Ethan on the field, and the red dragon was painted particularly vividly.

The celebration lasted until nearly twelve o'clock, and then it ended.

Back in the dormitory, Terry couldn't wait to say:

"Ethan, take out your golden egg and have a look. I heard that the clue to the next game is in it."

For Terry, who loves gossip, this golden egg is definitely a great topic for tomorrow's conversation.

"No, how did you know that? Even I just heard about it from Ludo Bagman this afternoon."

Ethan looked at Terry in surprise. Is it necessary for the information to spread so quickly?

Terry said unconvincingly:

"It came from Durmstrang. I also heard about it from Dennis from Slytherin. Come on, take out the golden egg first!"

They also have a small circle of gossip lovers, including students from all four colleges. Generally, as long as it is not related to their own college, they will communicate in it.

This news was heard while chatting after dinner.

"Step!"

After that, Ethan took out a golden egg from the dragon skin pocket.

The shape and size of each nest of golden eggs are quite different, which is determined by the fire dragon guarding the golden egg.

Ethan didn't know which nest of golden eggs he had taken out, but it shouldn't make any difference.

"I heard there's a crack on the golden egg!"

Terry said as he prepared to pick up the golden egg on the table.

As soon as he got it in his hand, his eyes sank.

"It's a bit heavy," Terry knocked it again: "Is it hollow?"

"It's not really gold!"

Terry smacked his lips, feeling a little incredible.

"Maybe!"

Ethan wasn't sure either. After all, he didn't know much about metals, so it was hard to tell just by the appearance.

After studying for a while, Terry found a tool to pry open the crack on the golden egg.

Since there was a crack on the golden egg and the clue was in the golden egg, the first thing that came to mind was to pry open the crack and see if this method could be used to open it directly and get the clue inside.

787Terry exerted a little force, and with a click, the golden egg split into two pieces.

"That's it?"

Terry looked at the golden egg in disbelief. He just wanted to give it a try, but he didn't expect it to actually open.

This is too simple!

It's just that the inside of the golden egg is empty, there is nothing.

Just when Terry was about to check the eggshell inside the golden egg to see if there was anything inside, a terrifying, sharp and piercing scream filled the whole room.

Terry, who was the first to bear the brunt, was stunned and quickly blocked his ears with both hands.

Ethan also used a silencing spell at the first time, targeting the cracked golden egg, so that the sound could not be transmitted to that small area.

Seeing this, Terry immediately closed the golden egg that was broken into two halves.

After doing all this, Terry was relieved.

Based on the reaction just now, it was obvious that his way of opening was wrong.

It's really not that simple!

Michael analyzed:

"It's like the cry of a female ghost. Obviously, there are still some problems with the way you opened it just now. Maybe you need to cast a spell or open it in a specific environment."

Terry nodded, took two steps back, and didn't dare to touch the golden egg easily.

Looking at this scene, Ethan also fell into deep thought, not knowing whether he still needed to put it in water to open it.

In fact, it's okay not to know the specific way to open it.

How to crack alchemy works, Ethan has learned from Nico, and it is a compulsory course.

In Ethan's eyes, the technological content of this golden egg can only be regarded as a good level, and it is not too difficult to crack it.

But it still takes a little effort and prepares some materials.

You can throw it directly into the water later. If it doesn't work, you can crack it.

For now, let's see what material it is made of.

With a thought, the golden egg on the table floated directly into Ethan's hands.

For others, the useless alchemical items such as the Levitation Spell and the Flying Spell were just like that for Ethan.

Then, in the surprised eyes of several roommates, a ball of red flame ignited directly.

Under the extremely high temperature, the golden egg melted at a speed visible to the naked eye. In just a few moments, the originally exquisitely made (ceec) golden egg had been melted into a ball of golden liquid.

It was not until this time that Ethan could be sure that this thing was really made of gold.

Unlike the gold galleon, that one was an alloy, while this one should be pure gold.

I didn't expect that this Triwizard Tournament was quite willing to spend money.

The champion was only 1,000 gold galleons, and there was no increase in the prize money for the three warriors from each academy to participate. At that time, there would be three people to share it. What could that little gold galleon do?

"Ethan, did you destroy this golden egg?"

Terry looked at Ethan's actions in surprise.

I thought Ethan wanted to use a spell to crack the secret hidden in the golden egg, but he burned it directly. Now it has turned into golden liquid. It is obviously impossible to get any information from this pool of liquid.

"It's okay, I still have a lot of this stuff."

Ethan waved his hand and said indifferently.

Then, Ethan opened the dragon skin bag again, and a large piece of silver-white brick was taken out from it. The same flame melted it into silver liquid in an instant.

A burst of white mist spread from the hand holding the silver-white liquid to the surroundings, and then Ethan threw the lump of liquid gold over.

When the white mist dissipated, a golden dragon appeared in Ethan's hand. The appearance was naturally the red dragon that Ethan released today using the Patronus Charm.

Gold wrapped in silver, after all, the value of pure gold is still a bit high, and Ethan has no stock in his hands. As for silver, Ethan often uses it when he uses alchemy, and the stock is definitely enough.

Anyway, this thing is just for display, and it doesn't require such good materials.

"Terry, go get a basin of water."

After putting away the ornaments he had just made, Ethan instructed Terry.

In the original book, Harry and Cedric both discovered the secret of the golden egg by taking a bath, and of course Harry was told by Cedric.

But taking a bath should not be a necessary condition, just soak it in water.

After a while, Terry found a wooden basin.

This wooden basin was used by Terry and his friends to wash clothes when school just started.

But later, under Ethan's guidance, after learning the spell of cleansing, this wooden basin was laid off.

After all, with convenient magic, cleaning is cleaner than hand washing, who would bother to rub it by hand.

After placing the wooden basin, Terry pointed his wand directly at the basin.

"Clear spring water!"

A pool of clear water began to overflow from the bottom of the basin, and stopped only when it reached two-thirds of the basin.

Seeing this, Ethan put the golden egg directly in, and the water was able to completely cover the golden egg.

Then he repeated Terry's previous action and pried it open.

Seeing Ethan's action, Terry and others took a step back and covered their ears directly.

Obviously, they did not think that this thing was opened in the water in the right way.

It was just that what they expected was that this time there was no sound like a female ghost screaming, but a gurgling song, which came from under the water, but they could not hear what was being sung.

Terry and others also put down their hands covering their ears and looked at this scene in surprise. Was it really guessed right?

"What is this saying? Why can't I hear it clearly?"

Terry, who had put his ear to the barrel and listened for a while, frowned and said to Ethan and others.

The voice was quite nice, but it was completely unclear what was said.

At this time, Ethan remembered that in the original book, Harry seemed to bury his head in the water to listen. Does he have to be in the water to hear it?

"Put your head in the water and see if it works!" (To read the novel, go to Feilu Novel Network! )

As he spoke, Ethan used an amplification spell to enlarge the wooden basin, and the water inside was also increased by Ethan's overflowing spell.

"No, I, this..."

Terry looked at Ethan in disbelief. This was not a good idea.

But looking at Ethan's serious eyes, he still hesitated. Could it be true?

Looking at the golden egg that made a completely different sound from the one he had just opened, Terry gritted his teeth and buried his head directly in the wooden basin.

After thirty or forty seconds, Terry raised his head with a hint of joy on his face.

"It is true that you need to be in the water to hear it. It says that your companions were kidnapped and you have an hour to rescue them."

"For details, Ethan, listen to it yourself."

Terry made way.

Seeing this, Ethan lowered his head and buried himself in the water without hesitation.

As soon as he entered the water, he heard some strange voices singing in unison from the opened golden egg:

Look for us, where our voices sound,

We can't sing on the ground.

When you search, please think carefully:

We kidnapped your companions. []

You only have one hour,

To find and recapture the wizard we kidnapped,

After one hour, there will be no hope,

It has completely disappeared and will never appear again.

After listening to it once, Ethan raised his head. This is similar to the original book. He should still go to the Black Lake to rescue the people kidnapped by the mermaids.

This is not a problem for Ethan at all!

Although there are great limitations in the water, some spells are difficult to use, which has a significant impact on Ethan, but facing the fishman, this is no problem, and a single hand of transformation is enough to solve it.

Besides, when I helped Hagrid deal with the troublesome Kelpies before, I also got to know a few of them. It wouldn't be a big problem to ask them for help.

I am also quite proficient in the Bubble Head Charm for entering the water, so I don't need to prepare anything at all.

But I still have to remind Fleur.

Although it is unknown when she solved the golden egg puzzle in the original book, it must not be so fast.

And compared to the Cheeky Weed, I guess she also likes the Bubble Head Charm more, but the Bubble Head Charm is easy to cause problems underwater if you are not proficient in it.

At this time, Michael and Gene also buried their heads in the water and raised them up.

After Ethan used the spell to clean the water stains on several people, he took out the golden egg and handed it to Terry.

"Give this to the prefect tomorrow and have him put it in the display window."

The Ravenclaw common room also has a trophy cabinet, which usually contains some medals and awards, but there is really no medal related to the Triwizard Tournament. The Goblet of Fire is held up after winning the prize, and it cannot be given to private persons.

EricIt's ok to give Ethan a golden egg as a representative now.

Anyway, Ethan doesn't need this stuff, so he can give one to Cassandra and the others later.

"Okay, I'll go tomorrow!"

Terry also thought this was a good idea, and there would probably be no Triwizard Tournament in the future. This is considered a rare edition. Although it is not the final trophy, it is a bit impressive to put it in.

That day in the auditorium, the little wizards in the front row heard Karkaroff and Ms. Maxime tell Dumbledore that they would not participate in the Triwizard Tournament in the future.

Of course, Terry knew about this news.

Just as Ethan and Terry were communicating, Michael suddenly said:

"I know. This golden egg must be unlocked in water. The next game will most likely be in water. The first few sentences show that it can sing, but it cannot be sung on the ground. Combined with the fact that the sound must be heard clearly in the water, it must be sung in the water."

"This can be done by the mermaid in the black lake. If the following sentences are interpreted, it is estimated that they rescued their companions in their hands."

Michael's face was full of affirmation. He thought that there was nothing wrong with his judgment.

"I think so too."

Gene also nodded, quite agreeing with Michael's interpretation.

Sure enough, when it comes to brains, you have to look at Ravenclaw.

In the original book, Harry seemed to have no idea what this meant, and it was Myrtle, who had died for decades, who told him the answer.

Now, Michael and others also completely understood it after just stopping once.

It's just a mermaid!

Ethan didn’t quite understand it before, but in this world, there are detailed records.

In this world, mermaids were first discovered in Greece and are divided into three categories, namely Sirens, Selkies, and Milo.

Among them, Sirens like to live in warm waters. In the illustration, Sirens have amazing beauty, with a standard human beauty on the upper body and a light blue fish tail on the lower body. They are more than two meters long, with light blue hair and a big white bun that is not covered.

Mero usually lives in cold waters, that is, the one in the Black Lake.

Ethan has seen this one with his own eyes. The dark green hair is like weeds, the iron-gray skin and yellow eyes, plus the head that is neither a mermaid nor a fish, it is simply unbearable to look at.

Selkies are not much better, and they are really the same as Milo.

If there were sirens in the Black Lake, it would be great. Then Ethan wouldn’t mind going there to swim often. Now, just looking at it makes him sick.

"Terry, don't tell anyone that we have unlocked the golden egg. We are all competitors in this competition."

"Don't worry, I know."

Terry naturally understood what Michael said, but he didn't tell anyone everything. .
