Hogwarts Reading Days

"Is this really all right?"

The weeping Myrtle happily "swimmed" beside Albert. It would have been better if they hadn't been driven out of the village by the mermaid just now.

"Thanks to Myrtle this time, I don't have to worry about getting lost in the second project."

Albert is in a good mood, but his body is a bit cold, and the effect of the heat preservation spell is not very good.Logically speaking, if the lake freezes in winter, the temperature at the bottom of the lake should be around 4 degrees, which is not really high.

"you are welcome."

Moaning Myrtle giggled, and seemed to enjoy being thanked, especially if it was her type.

Just when the three of them and one ghost were about to return to the lake, Albert felt something. Looking at the slightly hot detection bracelet on his left wrist, it seemed that some dark creature was approaching them?

Green Lody?

Albert squinted his eyes, turned his head to look at the dark and hazy lake below, and the jungle of black and green aquatic plants below gave him a feeling of depression.

"What's wrong?"

Myrtle noticed Albert's movement of turning his head, followed his gaze, and asked in confusion.

Albert took out his wand, waved it lightly, and a ball of light flew out from the tip of the wand, and suddenly bloomed under the bottom of the lake, instantly dispelling the surrounding darkness.

After seeing Albert's actions, Fred and George also realized that something was wrong, and pulled out their wands to be vigilant. They soon knew the reason.

"What the hell!"

"Damn it, did this stab Green Lody's nest?"

The two cursed in a low voice. Below them, a large number of Green Lody surged out from the lush water grass forest below, chasing them crazily. Fred and George, who were originally behind, were quickly caught by this The group of Greenlodies was entangled.

Those guys were not weak, grabbing their legs and pulling the Weasley twins down.

The two had to grab the underwater booster with one hand and wave the magic wand with the other to try to drive Green Lody away, even kicking and kicking, trying to get rid of the surrounding Green Lody, but the effect was not very good. There were too many of them, and when one was repelled, a large group rushed towards them, and the Weasley brothers, who had no experience in underwater combat, were in a hurry.

Looking at the Weasley twins in a hurry, Albert was a little depressed, because he found that the amulet made of the guardian tree had no effect on the group of Green Lody at all, otherwise Fred and George who carried the amulet would not have been affected by Green Lody at all. Lodi's attack.

But that's right, if the amulet is really used, it would have already become a panel skill.

The group of Green Lodies naturally wouldn't let Albert go just like that, but most of the firepower was attracted by Fred and George, and the number of Green Lodies that rushed towards Albert was relatively small.

Green Lodies are not dangerous. They are even classified as harmless by the Ministry of Magic. As long as they are dealt with calmly and properly, they will not cause any trouble to wizards.

Albert waved his wand and tried to use the stun spell to knock down Green Lody, but he soon discovered that he fired a galloping water column. After the water column concentrated on Green Lody, he quickly stunned him.

There is no doubt that the stun spell is not suitable for underwater combat, at least not suitable for dealing with large groups of Green Lody, but the situation is urgent, and Albert has no time to think about which spell is more suitable for dealing with Green Lody, his lips are fast Chanting various spells, knocked down all the Green Lodi around him.

Most magics have the same effect underwater, a bit like a bullet, which will form a water column after use, and the underwater power will be weaker, but the obstacle curse gave Albert an unexpected surprise.

When this spell is used underwater, it will set off a small wave of water shock, which is not powerful, but it can repel the enemy.

After confirming the effect of the Obstacle Curse, Albert immediately used it on Fred and George who were surrounded by Green Lody. While the water wave rushed them away for a certain distance, it also rushed the seven meats of Green Lody around them. Basu.

Myrtle, who saw Albert fighting a group of green-skinned water monsters, looked very excited, and actually cheered them on.

Albert didn't dare to be distracted, and waved his wand again, conjured up a rope to bind Fred and George, and pulled back the twin brothers who had been affected by the Impeding Curse.

The defeated Green Lody quickly gathered again and rushed towards the three of them, but Albert didn't give them a chance. He waved his wand lightly, disturbing the lake water to create a swirl, which would rush towards them. The Green Lody group who came were all involved, and I don't know where they rushed this group of guys.

"Okay, let's go back quickly, lest those annoying Green Lodies come after us again!" Albert pulled them to the lake with a rope, otherwise after losing the underwater booster, Fred and George would think It was not easy to get out of the water as soon as possible. The speed of swimming alone was not enough, so he had to pull the two of them together so that the three of them could leave the Black Lake faster.

"What happened just now? Why did those green-skinned water monsters suddenly attack us?" Myrtle asked, patting her chest.

"I don't know, let's talk about it first."

Albert suspected that it had something to do with the mermaid.

Of course, he has no proof.

No, there is now.

Albert glanced at the new task on the task panel:

Green Lody's counterattack.

Mercus, the leader of the mermaids, agreed to Dumbledore's request, and made Green Lody as much trouble as possible for the warriors trying to pass through the water plants. They will become one of the biggest obstacles for the warriors to save the hostages. No matter how much Lodi is, he is just a group of miscellaneous fish.

Reward: 1000 experience, acquired skill: water monster retreat spell.

Did you step on the pit in advance?

The corner of Albert's mouth twitched, but the water monster retreat spell came in a timely manner, but he didn't know if it would work well.

At this moment, a large black shadow suddenly appeared below, startling the three of them and the ghost. They could all feel that something was approaching quickly.

The big squid living in the black lake is looking at the three of Albert and a ghost with big eyes curiously.

Although they all know that the big squid in the Black Lake of Hogwarts is docile, and there are even rumors that some students went swimming in the lake accompanied by the big squid, but it is quite scary to meet the big squid underwater. It's really a different feeling to be escorted out of the lake by the big guys.

After getting out of the water, Fred couldn't help muttering: "This is definitely one of the most amazing experiences of my life."

"I feel like I can brag about it for years." George noticed that Lee Jordan was waving at them, and added: "I dare say Lee Jordan must regret that he missed such an opportunity."

"I'm leaving first. Remember to visit me in the girls' bathroom on the second floor when you have time." Miss Phantom ran to Albert's side and left contentedly.

"It seems that she really likes you." Fred and George reminded with a smile, "You have to be careful, maybe she will run to make trouble when you get married."

"Shut up, or I won't invite you when I get married."

"Wow, when are you getting married?"

"Did you dive into the bottom of the lake just now?"

Krum's voice sounded not far away, he seemed to be swimming in winter.

"Yes, there is a mermaid village under the water, but outsiders are not very welcome." Albert did not hide it, "Maybe you can try it, the scenery there is good."

"I've been in the water before, and there are a lot of Greenlodies at the bottom of the lake." Krum raised his eyebrows slightly, looking at the two helpers beside Albert. "Especially in those water grasses, you will often encounter Green Lody, which is very troublesome. Moreover, I haven't found the mermaid village you mentioned."

Krum's tone sounded a little gritted. Although he didn't say what happened after he met Green Lody, it obviously wouldn't be a good thing.

"The small mermaid village is hidden in the aquatic vegetation jungle, and you can only distinguish it when you get close." Albert said with a smile, "You have to be patient and look in the aquatic vegetation jungle."

"The Bubble Curse won't last that long, and Green Lody is a problem." Krum was curious about how Albert found the mermaid village the first time he went to the lake.

"Let's go ashore first, I'm actually quite afraid of the cold?" Albert swam towards the shore of the lake.

When Lee Jordan saw a few people coming ashore, he immediately pulled out his wand and greeted them, helping them to dispel the water and chill from their bodies, and noticing the wounds on Fred and George, he frowned and asked, "You are under attack." gone."

"When we were leaving, a large group of Greenlords attacked us crazily." Fred put on a thick cloak, took the potion handed over by Lee Jordan and poured it into his mouth. The potion tasted terrible. It was hot to drink, and a lot of heat came out of his ears, like a boiling kettle.

Krum looked at the busy four people, and suddenly understood why Albert was able to find the mermaid village all at once. The other party was prepared from the beginning, looking for the location of the village purposefully, instead of trying to touch it like him. luck.

"Krum, do you want it?" Albert handed the last cup to Krum who came ashore later, and introduced, "It can prevent you from catching a cold after staying in the water for too long."

"Oh, thank you, I don't need it." Krum shook his head and refused. He was using his magic wand to remove the water stains on his body, and looked curiously at the suit on the three of them, which was obviously specially made.

"Have you found the mermaid's village?"

"We found it, but their village is hidden in the water and grass jungle. I suspect that the group of Greenlodi who attacked us last has something to do with mermaids."

"how do you know?"

"Those mermaids will domesticate Green Lody."

George took off his clothes and began to clean the wound with medicine, dripping white fresh essence along the way, and the wound soon showed signs of healing.

"Can this guy prepare a little more?"

Krum watched this scene, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and couldn't help complaining.

"Green Lody should be an obstacle prepared by the school for the warriors. Although Green Lody is not a dangerous dark creature, if it is deep in the bottom of the lake." Albert took the steaming teacup and said calmly, "It could turn over if you're not careful, especially if you're unsuspecting and getting hit by a lot of Greenlodies."

"I'm going to change it. The Bubble Curse won't last an hour."

Krum hesitated for a moment, then took the fragrant milk tea from Albert, took a sip and continued, "Besides, the swimming speed is too slow, and our physical fitness can't last then."

"You went straight into the water without any preparation?"

Albert suddenly understood why Krum didn't find the mermaid village. He felt that he never went deep into the bottom of the lake, or he didn't dare to take that risk.

Krum was a little depressed, but still nodded noncommittally.

"You are amazing." Albert said with emotion.

"Is the mermaid village deep at the bottom of the lake?" Krum asked, although it sounded redundant, but there was no doubt that this was the result.

It is actually very difficult to go deep into the bottom of the lake if only relying on the Bubble Curse. Krum also thought of other ways, but he didn't put them into action.

Well, Krum is actually trying to practice Transfiguration, even though he's not really that good at Transfiguration.

After parting from Krum, they returned to the castle together.

On the way, Fred and George have been telling Lee Jordan about their great adventure in the Black Lake, and also about the thrilling scene of their final battle with a large group of Grimlordy.

"Ahem, although Green Lody's aggressiveness is very strong, but its lethality is not strong, otherwise it would not be classified as: ??." Albert couldn't stand it anymore, and explained with a light cough , "They usually drag the victim into the water, causing them to panic and drown in the water. It is actually not difficult to deal with them..."

"No, I think those Green Lodies are tough, at least in the water."

If they hadn't been attacked in the water, Fred and George wouldn't have been in such a mess.

"If you can deal with it calmly, there will definitely be no problem."

"I don't think anyone can calm down in that situation. Those guys' mouths still hurt to bite people." Fred muttered.

"Do you want to check with Madam Pomfrey again?" Albert asked.Although the wound has been carefully treated, they are not professionals after all.

Without waiting for the Weasley brothers to object, Albert took them to the school hospital and asked Madam Pomfrey to examine them both.

"They're fine, you should check it too!" Madam Pomfrey said,

"I'll let it go, and I'm not hurt." Albert declined.

"No, no, you are a warrior, how can you not pay attention to your health, and you will participate in the second event after a while." Special refused.

In the end, Albert was forced to undergo an examination and left the school hospital after confirming that he was in good health.

When the four walked out of the school hospital together, they almost bumped into Hermione in the corridor outside.

"What are you?" Albert looked at Hermione suspiciously.

"Winky seems to be sick, I'll ask Madam Pomfrey if she can treat it." Hermione hurried into the school hospital.
