Chapter 309 The Second Game (asking for subscription, asking for collection, asking for tickets)
After hearing Harry's uneasy question, Ryan stared at Harry seriously.When Harry felt a little uneasy about being watched, he opened his mouth and said: "If you feel uneasy, I will practice with you a little this week. In fact, it only needs to master the few basic spells you have mastered." That's fine, there's no need to be so nervous. By the way, if you believe me, you can give me your usage quota, I will use this time to make something, I think at least it should be more cost-effective than buying the finished product directly."

"No problem." Harry nodded vigorously. "All of my quota is for you."

"Thank you for trusting me." After speaking, Lai got up and patted Harry on the shoulder, and then said as he walked to the back studio. "I assure you that the magic props we use are definitely better than the other two."

In the next few days, Ryan first made two bottles of underwater breathing potions.Because according to his inference, it was probably too late to change the first game, so they simply added a few dragons and it was over.

But the preparation time for the second game organizers is much more than that of the first game. At this time, it is very likely that they directly expanded the game content for the sake of the game.That is to say, mixing the original underwater rescue into this new competition as a part of the new competition can at least save a lot of trouble, and at the same time, the original arrangement will not be wasted.

In addition to preparing props, Ryan spent part of his time training Harry.The tents where the contestants live should be specially approved by the Ministry of Magic. In addition to a daily three-bedroom room, there is also a laboratory and a magic practice room.The two are now temporarily practicing fighting in the magic practice room.

"Why are the magics used by the two of us so simple when we practice, and I already know all the other spells except the Disillusionment spell?" Harry asked curiously after a day's practice. "For example, Disarming Curse, Iron Armor Curse, Crushing Curse and so on."

"You also watched it when I was doing alchemy. In all fairness, do you think you can learn it in five days?" Ryan asked after hearing Harry's complaint.

"Of course not." Harry admitted bluntly. "But what does this have to do with practicing the spells you already know all day?"

"Spells and alchemy are the same. It is not easy to master new things proficiently. In ancient China, a general once said that when he went to the battlefield, he could use 1/3 of the things he knew. Very good, those who can perform half of it are excellent talents. He has fought all his life and has never seen a person who can fully display his abilities on the battlefield. Our game is also equivalent to the battlefield, as long as you can put those basic The battle spells need to be proficient to ensure that they can be used at critical moments. Blindly seeking new and powerful spells may lower our level in the arena."

"I see." Harry stood up and walked to the corner of the practice room to continue practicing the basic spells.It has to be said that Harley is indeed talented in Defense Against the Dark Arts. Ryan found that his ability to cast spells in this area has improved visible to the naked eye every day in the past few days.

The five days passed quickly - all the contestants were gathered again soon, and all six contestants were called to a tent by the edge of the Forbidden Forest to listen to Crouch's announcement of the competition.

"Nice to see you again, ladies and gentlemen." Although he said he was very happy, Crouch's stiff face showed no joy at all. "In the past five days, I believe everyone has prepared how to deal with the next game." After speaking, he glanced at the people below.

The competition plans of each school can be seen from everyone's attire. The players of Durmstrang and Beauxbaton each wear different things, which shows that they all chose to cooperate with each other in the competition but fight separately.Only the two contestants from Hogwarts wore a leather arm belt neatly, and besides a small leather bag, there was also a row of test tubes containing various potions.In addition to this, both men had a dagger strapped to their thighs.

Bagman next to him smiled and said: "The competition will start in half an hour, so let's talk about the specific content of this competition first, which is to rescue the hostages and collect gold medals at the same time—the golden eggs in the first competition A gold medal is made into four gold medals. You need to go to the Black Lake to get your own gold medal, and then combine the gold medal with the crystal in your hand. After entering the Forbidden Forest, the gold medal will show the same The other three gold medals produced by the golden egg and the position of the exit, one of the gold medals is with your hostages. The contestants need to bring the hostages to the exit at the same time to end the game."

After finishing the long list in one breath, Bagman wiped the sweat from his brow. Crouch looked at him with some dissatisfaction and said, "There are some details that need to be added. First, everyone in the Black Lake You can only take your own gold medal, and you are not allowed to touch other people's. Second, after entering the Forbidden Forest for half an hour, the gold medal in your hand will show the position of all the gold medals, but not including the gold medal in the lake Position. At the same time, the gold medals taken away by others will also disappear from the display. Third, the Forbidden Forest allows contestants to obtain other people’s gold medals, including seeking and snatching. Finally, two hours after the No.1 player enters the Forbidden Forest At the end of the game, all the players who did not bring the hostages to the exit will get zero points, do you understand now?"

"Then what if I only take the hostages to the exit?" Diane, another Beauxbaton contestant, asked.

"Then it's a pity that you will only have one hostage's base points, and each hostage's base points are only equivalent to one gold medal. Please remember that this game counts as long as you come out within the specified time, and it doesn't count if you come out early." Bonus points for you."

"Can I attack the hostage?" Krum asked in a low voice.

"This is absolutely not allowed. No matter attacking hostages or hostages attacking others, the scores of the attackers and the attackers will be cleared. You and the hostages will have monitoring magic, don't try to make small moves."

The two officials from the Ministry of Magic left after seeing that no one asked any other questions, and all the contestants sat there in a serious atmosphere until the bell rang half an hour later.

After the contestants heard the bell, the fish passed through the gate of the tent, and then walked along the path and lawn beside the Forbidden Forest to the Black Lake. Ryan saw that the seats were lined up on the other side of the lake in the fire dragon competition last November. , was already packed and reflected in the lake below.

It was the coldest morning of the severe winter, and the trees were covered with frost like frost oozing out.The sky was blue, like a shining mirror, the sun passed through it, bright and cold, shining on the icy lake, without any warming effect.

The referees sat at another table covered with a golden tablecloth by the water.The players walked directly in that direction.

Dumbledore smiled and winked at Ryan and Harry, and Crouch sat indifferently behind the long table, not even looking at them.

Madame Maxime smiled softly, as if nothing could spoil her good mood, while Karkaroff only surrounded his precious student Krum and asked for his warmth.

Ludo Bagman's voice suddenly resounded by the lakeside: "This game is a large-scale event involving water and land. The warriors are already in their positions. As soon as I blow the whistle, the second event will start. They will save themselves in the game hostages. I count to three. One...two...three!"

Shrill whistles echoed in the cold, still air.There was a burst of cheers and applause from the stands, and the game officially started.
