The cold lake water poured in from all directions into his facial features, and the surrounding was very quiet. Soon, he dropped to a depth of 20 meters, the rays of light disappeared, and the surrounding area was completely dark.

Under the water pressure, Hoffa's magic power quickly began to transform into life to resist this huge pressure, but he had no other way.

He held his breath, small bubbles overflowed from his nose and mouth, and the suffocation gradually occupied his brain.

In the darkness, something touched his back and instantly wrapped around his waist.

After that, a strong force dragged him straight up.

Ten seconds later.

Hoffa, whose lungs were about to explode, rushed out of the water.

Cough violently.

The cold air made his hair freeze instantly. He tremblingly lay on Osivia's brittle star, shaking his head vigorously, trying to shake off the cold.

The speed of ice fragmentation is very fast, and Osivia is faster in the half-snake state.

Finally, they escaped from the dangerous crushed ice zone. Osivia swam sideways on the ice, then quickly dragged Hoffa onto the unmelted ice.

Hoffa shivered and climbed onto the ice. This was the first winter swim in his life. The temperature of more than 20 degrees below zero made his soaked teeth tremble, and the difficulties were not enough for outsiders.

At this moment, in the center of the Black Lake, large tracts of ice began to crack and fall off. A faint mist evaporated from the surface of the lake, which looked a bit similar to a hot spring.

"What, what the hell, this...this...this ice surface...how do you say it collapsed and it collapsed." Hoffa's teeth trembled and were so cold. Straight shivering, no matter how strong it is, it seems to be of no avail in the face of the natural cold.

Osivia didn't answer, she quickly pulled out wand, and tapped Hoffa.

"Remove water and prevent moisture."

Soon, the water on Hoffa's body was sucked away by wand, and his clothes and hair became dry again. He feels a lot better, but the energy lost by the drop in the body's core temperature cannot be made up for a while.

Osivia tapped on herself again, and the freezing water on her body quickly evaporated.

She looked at the collapsed ice surface in the middle of the lake, browsing tightly frowns.

"Why is this?"

After a while, Hoffa slowed down. He looked at the smokey water, turned his hand and put his hand into the lake. The temperature was about zero, normal. The temperature of the ice water is supposed to not melt this half-meter thick ice.

"Are there geothermal springs in Scotland?" Hoffa asked.

"No."

Osivia said softly, "Look at the edge of the ice."

Hoffa looked down, and the broken ice edge was engraved A thin line of flaming red, which stretched forward, but wherever it stretched, the ice surface was broken and peeled off.

"It was caused by magic." Osivia said softly.

"Who used it here?"

Hoffa is puzzled. Looking at the scale of the ice fracture, a wizard can't be completed at all. At least dozens of wizards must work together. It can be done.

"I don't know."

Osivia took out Wand and clicked on the lake.

The cold air gathered from between her wand's rods, and the lake water quickly condensed and transformed into a transparent small ice boat.

She told Hoffa extend the hand: "Let’s go, no matter what happens, go and find the library first."

After getting on the ice boat, Hoffa still trembled for a while Later, the core temperature of the body gradually rises. Fortunately, he had something to eat before he came, and there was some stock in his stomach.

Osivia ordered some ice boats, and they slid quickly and silently on the lake where the ice had fallen off.

Soon, Hoffa looked sideways. The two of them were already very far away from Hogwarts Castle. Looking back, there was only a mist of water behind him, and nothing could be seen.

Looking forward, the small island in the middle of the lake also lost its trace at this moment.

"Do you remember the direction?"

Hoffa asked Osivia, he knew that this Senior Sister didn’t have a strong sense of direction. In such a dense fog, he wasn’t sure. Whether the other party can grasp the direction.

"I am familiar with this piece."

paused, she added: "I would swim in the Black Lake every night when I was in school."

Hoffa exhaled a puff of smoke, rubbed her hands, and said nothing.

Due to the inexplicable fall into the icy lake, Hoffa's spirit strength field has been on after boarding the boat.

Not long after, he felt that a group of creatures had entered the range of his perception.

I lowered my head and saw faintly, something was swimming in the black lake, and it was very hazy across the shimmering lake.

One of the underwater creatures sensed Hoffa's spirit strength field, so it slowly swims out of the water.

At first there was only a light white dot, then gradually enlarged. It has become an S-shaped graceful curve.

As it approached the water, the creature flipped silently and turned into a backstroke. oh la la With the sound of the water, a violent creature got out of the water.

She clung to the ship's edge and slowly straightened up, revealing a charming young girl face, with water drops dripping on her face. She lay on the ship's edge and looked at Hoffa with a smile.

Her brown hair is wet, she has some hazy tulle on her chest, her bare forearm joints have raised fins, and her collarbone has dots of transparent scales.

Under the dark water, Hoffa can see a huge swinging fish tail.

It turned out to be a Merpeople.

The scene is unspeakable strange.

The Merpeople climbed the ice boat and looked at himself without blinking.

Hoffa can see a trace of desire and temptation in the eyes of the other party. She seems to be silently inviting herself to swim with her.

At this time, an inexplicable sense of familiarity rises in the mind, and then Hoffa remembers it. This seems to be the first year when he was enrolled in the school, he wrapped his fingers and sprayed water on his face. Merpeople.

How could it be so big?

"Are you ready?"

Merpeople asked in a low voice.

Hoffa barely heard, he rubbed his ears: "Ah, are you talking to me?"

Osivia frowned and glanced at Merpeople, coldly said:" This is not where you should be."

The Merpeople looked a little scared, she looked at Hoffa and whispered: "Be careful."

After she said that, she turned her head and puffed. Into the water. The tail shook a few times and disappeared into Hoffa's spirit strength field.

Osivia: "Scottish lake monster, 4X-level magical creature. Lifespan is only 10 years old. When I was in school, I often swim with them. Their saliva is the material of love potion. If you If you kiss it, you will be confused by it and drag it into the water."

"How did you know that you kissed?" Hoffa murmured.

"No, only low-spirited wizards can be lured by Merpeople. Moreover, they are not interested in female creatures."

Osivia paused, said with doubts: "Some Something is wrong, the lake demon will not appear in winter. What happened?" At this time, the lake surface narrowed, and the shedding ice gradually narrowed the Small Accomplishment waterway.

Hoffa, who has been straining his nerves, saw some activity on the ice in the hazy mist.

He immediately wanted to remind Osivia, but the other party covered his mouth and motioned him not to say anything.

Hoffa's nose and mouth were covered, and she could only stare at her.

Osivia took out Wand and knocked on her arm: "Disler Falcon."

Suddenly, she and Hoffa disappeared into the air.

As the fog thinned, Osivia stopped the ice boat.

They saw the shadows moving in the fog.

Those creatures are half human, half fish, tall and burly.

It's the lake monster.

But it is very different from the young girl lake demon I just saw.

Although these lake monsters have the same human fishtails, they are extremely ugly and hideous, but they are covered with spikes everywhere. Still holding some rusty but sharp anchors in his hands.

Some of the lake monsters have curved and protruding spine, holding a wooden stick with barnacles and algae in their hands, and sliding on the ice with the stick. The faintly discernable red lines have been carved in the places where they have been scratched on the ice.

The ice that just fell off is actually a masterpiece of these creatures.

They didn't notice the two intruders, Hoffa and Osivia, who were engraved with red lines while communicating with each other in Lake Monster language that they didn't understand at all.

Looking around all around, after the thick fog fades, the surrounding ice is actually full of male lake monsters. There are at least several hundred in number.

Hoffa swallowed, feeling a little dry on her lips.

In this scene, he was almost unheard-of, combined with the female lake monster's warning to him, he used his toes to think that these guys must be planning some unknown dangerous plan.

The situation has taken a turn for the worse. In the Black Lake, his battle strength has to be reduced by at least 90%. He still has no transfiguration that can be used in the water.

Seeing that the fog is getting lighter and lighter, the lake monsters will soon find the two people on the ice boat.

Hoffa looked towards Osivia, Osivia shook her head, pointed at the distant ice surface, pointed at the lake water, and made a swimming pose.

Hoffa stared wide-eyed, he understands what Osivia means, she wants to swim there.

Hoffa pointed to the boat.

Osivia shook her head and pointed to her ear. Wave his hand.

She meant that the sound of the ship would attract the attention of those Merpeople.

Hoffa gnashing teeth are nodded.

Osivia did not hesitate to put her hands under Hoffa's ribs.

Immediately, the ice boat under my feet turned into liquid.

The two fell silently into the Black Lake, and the endless cold swept Hoffa's body again.

One meter below the water, Osivia swung its tail and took Hoffa down. The two of them rubbed the falling ice and entered under the thick ice.

There is no sound in my ears, only the rumbling and dull sound of water.

The bitter temperature made Hoffa's brain almost rigid.

He feels that he will definitely have a psychological shadow on swimming in the future.

The madness of life has always exceeded his expectations. One hour before he was eating Christmas turkey in the school lobby, and the next hour he was crossed by someone and swam to the Black Lake Houda Half a meter of ice below. Above my head is an invulnerable, indestructible and impregnable ice block, and below my feet is an unknown abyss without any light.

As long as Osivia is slightly careless, even if it is a physical cramp, she and herself must die without a burial site.

Fortunately, the transfiguration teacher didn’t make any mistakes. She swam for about 1 point. When Hoffa was holding her breath and was about to choke, she covered Hoffa’s mouth with one hand and took out with the other. wand, drew a circle on the ice above his head.

The ice circle falls off.

Osivia pushed Hoffa, he jumped out of the water like a seal and collapsed on the ice.

At this moment, Hoffa's face is blue and white, and she is too cold to speak. His teeth and skeleton rattled together.

He braced himself and climbed up. He pressed the ice and started doing push-ups frantically. While pushing up, he turned on the activated state. It continuously repairs the frozen cells of the body.

Osivia crawled out of the ice hole, her condition was not much better, her lips were purple with cold, her fingers tremblingly pinched wand, she clicked on herself, and on Hoffa again Click it. The terrifying ice water was sucked out.

After that, she hugged her shoulder with one arm, and her right hand fingers drew a green magic array in the air, and a lot of information was engraved on the array.

After drawing, she pressed it with one hand, and the magic swirled and disappeared in the air.

After that, she stared at the thick water vapor in the distance.

Half an hour later, Hoffa's brain regained consciousness. The first thing he did was to ask Osivia:

"What's the situation, what are those lake monsters doing?"

Osivia shook his head: "I don't know, this situation is weird. I notified Auror at the school and asked them to be fully alert. If something happens, someone will come to support us immediately."

" Are those Aurors guarding the hunting grounds your subordinates?" Hoffa asked with a frown.

"To be precise, some of my father's colleagues at Wizengamot."

Osivia stood up and said, "Without further delay, hurry up."

Osivia took Hoffa's arm, and the two stepped on ice skates and rushed to the island in the middle of the lake.
