After the happy and boring Christmas passed, the Triwizard Tournament continued.Fortunately, the second project was almost completed smoothly, although there were a few twists and turns in the process.

Now, all that everyone has to worry about is the last project on June 6th.

On the eve of the third event, a twenty-foot hedge was erected in Hogwarts' Quidditch pitch ahead of time.Those well-trimmed hedges formed a huge and complicated maze. Many obstacles were artificially set up in the maze, as well as difficult problems that players had to use their minds and spells to solve.

Sirius was committed to helping his godson Harry deal with these few items of the Triwizard Tournament, using his chances of being in charge of some security affairs at Hogwarts.He kept reminding Harry to focus on the competition and not other things, and that things outside the walls of Hogwarts—especially the messy personnel and changes in the Ministry of Magic—Harry didn't need to manage, and he couldn't manage. .

Liu Quan is not very clear about the details of the original work, and she is not a standard HP fan in this life world, so at this moment when the undercurrent is surging, she finds that she has nothing to do except for futile anxiety. Do.

She remembered that Voldemort would be resurrected at the end of the Goblet of Fire episode, but how?Who else is involved in this plot besides Wormtail?What kind of position does Harry occupy in it? ... She didn't know all about it.

Moreover, the bad thing is——although the system bacteria instilled some relevant knowledge about the original work and fans in her from the very beginning, but after thinking about it carefully, you will find that the knowledge is all incoherent and incoherent, and even There are very limited clues to the development of the plot.Perhaps because she didn't want her as an outsider to have too much preconceived interference with the fragile plot balance of this world, the system bacteria seemed to be quietly and strictly controlling her understanding of the plot—even when she herself recalled the plot automatically and spontaneously. Some of the knowledge about HP's original works obtained in the world of this life, the system bacteria have never relaxed the monitoring of this part.

So, even though she remembered that Cedric Diggory was also going to die at the end of the episode, she had no idea how it happened!

Willow had to admit that, even though his father, Amos Diggory, was a bit annoying with his bluff, Cedric Diggory was undeniably a likable boy.He is handsome, outstanding, hardworking, friendly, and many wonderful adjectives are suitable to praise him.Although she doesn't know him as well as she knows Harry, in her mind, he is by no means a big supporting role in "It doesn't matter whether he dies or not"—not to mention that no one understands how and how bad a supporting role is than her. And the feeling of fighting against fate, isn't it.

However, she tried to hint that there was something wrong with Dumbledore when old Crouch disappeared, but Dumbledore obviously had no better way to prevent this kind of thing-unless she could clearly point out to him the current situation Moody was a fake, but she didn't dare risk the world falling apart instantly by telling the truth.

And how could she explain why she was able to foresee these secrets in advance?She is Lily Evans, the flower of Gryffindor, one of the backbones of the Order of the Phoenix, but this does not mean that she has the BUFF of [Infinite Trust] in front of Dumbledore and others.If she can't come up with a reasonable and convincing explanation, even she can't prevent others from having such reasonable doubts about herself.

In this dilemma of ambivalence, the date of the final stage of the Triwizard Tournament is gradually approaching.

On the eve of the third event, after the curfew, Liu Quan stood in front of a window in the corridor on the eighth floor, overlooking the stadium.

Under the dark sky, the lines on the other side of Hogwarts Castle were vaguely outlined in the dim moonlight.In the distance is a pitch-black forbidden forest, and it seems that the rustling sound of the night wind blowing through the treetops can be vaguely heard.

The tall hedges had been erected on the Quidditch field at this moment, and the maze had been completed.Deep in that labyrinth, the Goblet of Fire will be placed - and then? !Then what will happen? !

Liu Quan didn't realize that his hands resting on the window sill had unknowingly curled up his fingers, tightly grasping the old wooden window frame of Hogwarts Castle.

[I want... I have to go...] She thought so.

Then the system bacteria that she hadn't seen for a long time suddenly appeared in her mind.

[What else does the player want to do? 】Its voice was cold and calm, successfully stopping Liu Quan's feverish brain at that moment.

[Want to stop Harry?Or Cedric Diggory? ] It continued to speculate calmly, and its voice became more and more indifferent.

Liu Quan: […]

Because he was guessed to a certain extent, he was speechless for a while, but knowing that doing so was impulsive and dangerous, Liu Quan could only turn his eyes away from the neat rows of hedges, and stared at the Looking at the night sky with few stars in the distance.

[...I don’t remember the specific plot that followed,] I don’t know how long she was silent, she finally said to the system bacteria in her brain, [So every step I take next may be dangerous...]

The system bacteria sneered.

【so what?Player, are you trying to convince me to give you more spoilers? 】

Liu Quan was silent.

[The player seems to have become less resigned to their fate recently than before.] It continued to comment with a sneering tone.Of course, even though Liu Quan was shocked after hearing this evaluation, she didn't show it, let alone say anything.

【…Do you think that you have experienced so many worlds and such a long life, and you have never failed before, so you should take it for granted that you can become more noble and more holy? 】

Sure enough, the system bacteria was followed by cold ridicule.

【You think that with your own ability, you can show your excellent character of compassion and compassion in this world without causing any serious and irreversible consequences, right? 】

Liu Quan remained silent.However, the system bacteria with the sky-defying skill of [Epic Mind Reading] has already seen through everything.

It paused for a moment, and suddenly said in an emotionless tone without fluctuation: 【...Do you want to know the truth?Then I can tell you now. 】

Liu Quan:? !

[Why did I warn you at the beginning of entering this world that this world may be your last level, and you can get extremely high points if you pass the level and meet the conditions for all games? ...That's because, before you, there are already more than a dozen players who have failed in this level. 】

In the silent night, the voice of the system bacteria echoed in her mind, and it seemed that her brain was buzzing for a while—although she knew that this was just a communication between consciousnesses, and the voice of the system bacteria was impossible Spread it to the outside world and be heard by others.

[This level is the most difficult.This sentence is not just casual. 】

[In order to keep this world from collapsing, we have tried various possibilities.The players before you have played various roles; and the objects of additional side missions accepted are not limited to Severus Snape alone. 】

[Why did you designate him as the object of the side quest instead of others when you conquered this world?That's because no one else has his position and importance, which is enough to maintain the balance of this world to some extent. 】

[Do you think we haven't tried to designate Sirius Black, James Potter or even Harry Potter himself as the player's task object? ! 】

Not knowing if it was Liu Quan's illusion, the system bacteria sneered slightly.

【Finally, we found that, in the final analysis, in the original work, there are only two characters who appear in the title of the book—the prisoner of Azkaban, Sirius Black; and the half-blood prince, Severus Snape. 】

[The player who was ahead of you in terms of points and rankings in the last week was also playing Lily Evans, and the object of the side quest he accepted was Sirius Black. 】

【Unfortunately she failed. ...Moreover, her failure caused us to have to terminate her main quest halfway and evacuate her from this world, otherwise this world, which has experienced many mission failures, is already too fragile and may collapse at any time, and it can no longer be repaired . 】

[And the real Lily Evans you meet in this world is a character from the original work that we deliberately never really separated from.Because the world can no longer afford a series of vacuums after completely removing this important person.Not even if you jump right into that role to fill.It must form a new balance somewhere with you who is performing the repair task, and serve as a fulcrum for the continued operation of this world. 】

[So we have come to a conclusion. 】

[Sirius Black is certainly important in the original work, but because he did not survive to the finale, this importance is greatly discounted. 】

【So we only have one possibility left——】

[Severus Snape who was sacrificed in the finale. 】

[However, it is also wrong to rashly make him the subject of the main mission.This has been tried and failed in the previous weeks. 】

[He is different from Hijikata Toshizo from the previous world, after all. ... After all, Hijikata Toshizo supported the Shinsengumi and led the Shinsengumi to the end. His disappearance is almost equivalent to the disappearance of the Shinsengumi, so his story line is enough to support the entire world.Not Severus Snape, however.He just served as Dumbledore's assistant - to put it more cruelly and bluntly, a marionette - to the finale according to Dumbledore's arrangement and will, but his too abrupt and hasty death ended this; And after his death, Hogwarts and the wizarding world are not in danger of dying out.In the HP world, it was Harry Potter, not Severus Snape, who took on the important task of supporting Hogwarts and the wizarding world to continue to survive. 】

[There is only such a small difference, after we deeply study and reflect on all the previous failure cases, it is determined to be the key to whether this world can be repaired and continued - and it also lists Severus Snape as a branch line The key to the quest object, not the mainline quest object. 】

[Now, everything is up to you, the last player in this world. 】

[If you still fail to succeed, this world will never have a chance to be repaired.There is no doubt that the moment you fail, the world will collapse. 】

[You don't even have the chance to consider what kind of punishment you will suffer if you fail,] the system bacteria came to a conclusion coldly.

[Because your ridiculous sense of justice and comical quality of compassion will destroy your own in that moment—think about the lives that disappeared because of the collapse of this world!Those people who you care about and cared about you, they will disappear forever when this world collapses——]

[So, haven't you learned anything from the people you've met along the way? ! 】The system bacteria's questioning hit Liu Quan's heart hard.

[Tezuka Kunimitsu, Atobe Keigo, Munakata Reiji, Hijikata Toshizo, Saitoichi... Are these people just names for you in your memory? ! 】

[Think about it, stop being self-righteous, player! 】It finally snapped.

[If you still think that the momentary Holy Mother is more important after thinking about it, you have no chance to accomplish what you want to do!Because before that, you will be judged as a dangerous person who will pose a threat to this world and be directly wiped out! ! 】

Liu Quan:? ! !

The night wind blew in through the open window, blowing cold and messy on her face.

This was the first time that the system bacteria sternly counted the names of those people who had left traces and beautiful memories in her life in front of her.

So... it must be because the situation has reached a critical moment, and it feels that it can't wake up the obsessed players if it doesn't do this, right?

Liu Quan was silent for a long time.

【You always sacrifice yourself and fight for the team. 】

【...The so-called victory means that it starts to go away at the moment you realize it. 】

[It is also my pride to be able to fight with you. 】

[Our Shinsengumi will be united no matter what difficulties lie ahead, I firmly believe that. 】

... The chaotic voices sounded in my mind.

Those deeply hidden memories must have been uncovered.The scenes I saw in the Endless Hall, from Tezuka and Atobe to Xiaoyi and the deputy chief, their faces, their voices, suddenly seemed to come back to her eyes, right in front of her A very close place emerged.

Liu Quan blinked slowly.Then, the shadows in those hallucinations all disappeared.There is still only a deep dark night in front of her eyes, and the country that is about to enter summer has a still cold night wind, as if carrying the ancient and solemn atmosphere exuded by this ancient castle, rushing towards her face.

[There are innocent ordinary people here, as well as your companions!do you understand? ! 】

She was frightened and startled, and suddenly shivered wittily.

[As one of the seven kings, coupled with the responsibility of SCEPTER4, I must defeat you.But Munakata Reisi personally—only wants to save you, Suho! 】

It was the voice of Reiji Munakata.What reverberates in her memory is the plot that she has never personally experienced but witnessed in the endless hall.

[I'm sorry, I let you draw a lottery. 】This is Zhou Fangzun, his voice is the same as before, like a lazy lion, always so careless, lifting weights lightly.

【...If you really feel sorry, you should think of a way before it evolves to this kind of result! ] This is the heavy and sad voice of Reiji Munakata.

That tragic scene was clearly engraved in her mind from the moment she saw it, and occasionally, it would turn into a nightmare to haunt her in the middle of a certain night.

Strangely, after scrolling through so many images related to the precious people she met in the past, the last thing that came to her mind were the two people whom she did not reach the ending of the route with the highest favorability.

Fushimi Saru Hiko said: [I hate people with big temper.If you just look down from above and don't be moved by the petty feelings of the people below, isn't Wang just a boring and lonely person. 】

Izona said: [I believe that my research can make everyone happy... But what I discovered is a kind of lonely power.Although there are many clansmen following, it seems that every king is walking alone——]

Unknowingly, she also used the same language, and picked up Xiao Baijun's next sentence.

"...It's as if I parted ways with everyone on that day."

Then she closed her eyes and smiled slowly.

That smile gradually turned into a wry smile, and then a tear that couldn't be stopped even when she closed her eyes, came out from under her tightly closed eyelids, and slid down her cheek with a thud.

"...I see," she said.

Opening her eyes, she looked at the huge maze built by the hedges in the distance, and whispered as if in a trance: "Using a sword to make a sword, our righteousness has no haze—"

Then, she laughed silently.

"'Dayi'..." she said as if she was talking to herself.

"It turns out that even life is so insignificant in front of 'Dayi'."

The author has something to say:

February 9:

Sorry for being late today. . .Because recently I have to start planning for the last big turning point in the girl's mind [.

As you can see, the girl has completely transformed into a king by now [Super Fog!
