Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

Chapter 223 Elimination

"then you……"

Sophanni seemed to want to ask "Are you okay?", but anyone who was not blind would not ask this question after seeing the blood, scratches and dirt on Harry's body.

"Looks pretty miserable, doesn't it?"

Harry raised his wand. He never let down his guard, even though the other party looked very kind now.

"No... uh, come on, I mean..."

"We are rivals."

Harry didn't smile.

"Ah...well...I mean, how about...we just pretend we didn't see each other...okay?"

Sophini couldn't laugh anymore, even though the one standing in front of her was the youngest and theoretically the weakest of the six warriors...

But the facts of the first two rounds have proved that...

Harry Potter was definitely not as simple as other fourteen-year-old boys and girls of his age.

If you don't regard him as a competitor of the same level, you will suffer a great loss.

"Hmm... that's a good suggestion. Then let's - faint!"

After hearing the first half of Harry's sentence, Sophanni showed a relieved expression on her face, but in an instant, her smile froze on her face.

A beam of red light shot out directly from the wand in Harry's hand and hit Sophenny's chest.

"Are you kidding..."

Harry carefully raised his wand, approached Sophante, who lay unconscious on the ground, and touched her with his toes.

"So... naive?"

......

Harry was a little confused.

No. How did this brain make it to the finals?

Is it pure luck?

Hey, he actually guessed it right.

More than 80% of Sophanni's entry into the finals was due to luck.

However, the Beauxbatons students in the audience outside the venue don't think so.

"Despicable!" "This is the behavior of a villain!" "It's shameful!"

Curses came one after another, and because most of the members of Beauxbatons were female, the shouting sounded even sharper.

What's even more difficult is that Harry's supporters are also confused by his move.

Is this still the Harry Potter they knew?

None of them could justify this blatant sneak attack.

The green feather pen in front of Rita Skeeter was almost flying away. Rita even thought the automatic feather pen wrote too slowly, so she grabbed a feather pen herself, and her hand was almost leaving an afterimage.

Anriel raised an eyebrow.

A little surprising, but unexpected but reasonable.

Given the environment Harry grew up in, the fact that he didn't become like this before can only be attributed to his inherent goodness, or to the fact that McGonagall and others cared about him enough, and that friends like Hermione cared about him enough.

And after being raised by Sirius...

Well, it would be strange if he didn't do that.

Pretending to strike up a conversation to let the other party let down their guard and then striking the enemy with one blow - this is textbook despicable instruction.

Shameless, but it works.

Anriel ignored the excitement of some of the audience:

“Ten, nine, eight… two, one!

Warrior Sophine Claire failed to awaken/regain consciousness within the allotted time, so I declare—

Sophanne Claire is out! "

The last sentence resounded throughout the place, and even the people in the maze could hear it clearly.

After hearing this announcement, Harry turned around and left the place where one of the warriors was eliminated without any hesitation.

"Show me the way."

This time, it was the southwest direction of the lower level.

......

"Sophane...? The girl from Beauxbatons?"

Carmen floated forward silently. Although it looked a bit mysterious, it was actually nothing to him. After passing by Krum, he had been consciously hiding all traces of his existence, and he didn't even intend to leave the tiniest footprint.

Now it seems that his choice makes some sense.

Being eliminated so quickly... he must have met other opponents.

who is it?

Krum? Or someone from Hogwarts?

No, that's not entirely true... Carmen knew there were other people in the maze.

But the eliminated Sophanni had a camera to follow her, so it was basically impossible for her to be eliminated by someone other than the brave participants in this competition without causing a sensation.

Carmen was stunned for a moment. He had just passed this corner...

coincidence?

Sophine lay quietly in the room before him.

There was a big hole in the wall of the room.

It seems that Anriel has transferred me here again.

Just as Carmen was thinking this, a figure appeared at the entrance opposite the room.

"Oh no... not good."

Carmen dodged behind the wall and avoided the red ray that was rushing towards her.

"Drmstrang people! How dare you!"

......

The person who appeared across the room was Furong.

Outside the court, Maskrey turned his head sharply and saw Anriel's face, trying his best to hold back his laughter.

...Who among my family members understands?

Mascorie rolled his eyes, turned his attention back to Carmen, and began to fight with Fleur.

This battle was inevitable, because Furong came running over after hearing the noise -

From a psychological point of view, she would subconsciously think that "I came very quickly, so the first person I blocked must be the murderer", rather than "in such a short time when I arrived, the murderer escaped and another unlucky guy happened to appear at the scene."

Besides, Carmen is a contestant from Durmstrang, so his words are not very credible.

As for the room where Sophine is...

The back of that big hole has been filled with a vine wall, and it looks like a normal explosion crater... or a trace of a battle.

Carmen poked her head out from behind the wall, then retracted it the next second. Two blue beams of light hit the place where Carmen's head had just been.

"I don't want to bully anyone, but I really didn't knock Sophine unconscious—"

Carmen picked up his wand and shouted to the other side, although he didn't think Fleur would listen.

"All petrified!"

The Petrification Curse is one of the common minor evil curses, used to restrain the opponent's actions. It has the characteristics of fast start speed and fast light column flying speed.

Furong twisted the beam of light at a strange angle - obviously, she was not an easy player, as she had already demonstrated her uncanny flexibility in the first game.

It is not ruled out that it is the influence of creatures like Veela who are born with the ability to transform.

In fact, when Furong heard Carmen use the petrification spell, she didn't care much. After all, this spell was not the type that was too difficult to intercept. It was just that if it was her, it would be less effort to dodge than to intercept it.

But when she turned around and casually glanced at the place where the spell hit, a thin layer of cold sweat appeared on her forehead...

"Click..."

The stone-like vine wall seemed to have weathered, with a layer of gray powder falling off.

Even some of the vines in the inner layer have been petrified...

wrong!

Fleur glanced towards Carmen, just as he stepped out of his shelter behind the wall, an expression on his face that to her looked like amusement.
