Chapter 169: competition is over

"What's the matter?" The referees and the audience discussed.
Dumbledore seemed to have finished communicating with the mermaid leader until the mermaid leader glared at Jon with his rude eyes, and then ordered his subordinates to call Victor Krum and Harry Potter Put it down.
The mermaids returned to Lake Hogsmeade.
Albus Dumbledore held Krum with the shark's head in one hand, and Harry Potter, who turned into webbed hands and feet, led them back to the podium.
Professor Karkaroff and Professor McGonagall rushed over to catch the two students.
At the same time, Astoria has awakened.
Jon hugged her and patted her back gently... She spit out a few mouthfuls of lake water, opened her eyes, and blinked a few times in the bright light.
"You succeeded?" Astoria said happily, although her tone was weak: "Awesome...Professor Snape told me your mission..."
"Yes." Jon nodded: "And I saved a few more..."
...
"What the is going on?" Karkaroff roared while waving his wand around Krum's head.
His wandering wand had no effect... Professor McGonagall ran over and relieved Krum's transfiguration technique.
Dumbledore ignored him, but looked at Jon curiously: "Al (the mermaid leader) told me that you attacked them and rescued all the hostages?"
That ugly mermaid is actually a mother? Jon couldn't help being a little surprised when he heard this name.
"Yes, Professor." While grabbing Astoria's hand, he calmly explained, "Because she is also my friend..."
While talking, Jon pointed at Hermione who hadn't recovered yet.
"And that little girl..." Jon pointed to Gabriel who was held by Fleur again: "Her face was purple-cyan at the time, she looked terrifying and might die at any time."
"And her." Jon pointed to Qiu-Zhang who was vomiting there again: "If she died underwater, one of my friends would be very sad."
"If Harry, Krum, and Dracul didn't arrive, they would all die..." Jon said with a heavy face, "I'm sorry, Professor, but I don't want to see that. Happened, so I had to do it..."
"Jon, you fool!" Astoria leaned in his ear and whispered, "Don't you take that song seriously? Dumbledore won't let any of us drown! "
"But... in that song..." Jon argued.
"That's just for you to come back within the stipulated time!" Astoria shook his head and said, "Professor Dumbledore has assured us that there will be no safety issues whether it is a player or a hostage... I hope you don’t lose time by being a hero..."
Jon's face suddenly showed a frustrated and flustered expression.
"Yes, there was no time wasted at all." Dumbledore smiled suddenly: "We eliminated two opponents by the way."
"Well, what do you mean, Dumbledore?" Karkaroff couldn't help raising his tone.
"Maybe my expression is not standard, but this game is over." Dumbledore said calmly.
"It's impossible... It's just an accident!" Karkaroff argued excitedly.
"Yes, it's over!" Percy Weasley took a piece of parchment and walked over: "The rules of the game stipulate that when all four players leave Hogsmeade Lake, no matter if there is no more than one Hours, it all means the end of the game...now..."
While talking, Percy glanced at the four players on the shore: "It is indeed over. Only Jon Hart managed to save his hostage."
"It's not fair at all!" Karkaroff roared: "Krum has not got a chance to perform..."
"The Goblet of Fire rules cannot be changed!" Percy said nonchalantly.
"If you can escape to the shore with four people from the hands of a few hundred merfolk, then it's unfair, Karkaroff!" Severus Snape strode from the rostrum. Come over and shout sharply.
Karkaroff couldn't help but shudder, and he backed away a few steps without speaking.
"Yes, this boy did a great job!" Mrs. Maxim also said: "A pretty noble behavior, but also a very dangerous decision... Not everyone can have the courage to work with hundreds of murlocs. ."
Ludo Bagman originally wanted to refute something, but seeing everyone else's point of view reached an agreement, he closed his mouth with interest.
"Since there is no objection, let's start scoring!" Dumbledore suggested.
He glanced at Karkaroff, who was itchy teeth, and added: "By the way, Igor, in order to prevent the same player from being too far apart from the first event... Two new judges will be added to the scoring of the two events, and the lowest and highest points will also be deducted when the final score is settled."
Looking at the expression on Karkaroff, Jon felt that he might faint at any time.
"Newly added... Which two... Referees..." he stammered.
"I... and Minerva." Snape stood up, and as he said, he happily looked at Harry Potter who stood helplessly in front of Qiu Zhang.
"But before that, I have a question!" Dumbledore turned around and looked at Jon again: "How did you escape from the hands of hundreds of merfolk with them?"
"Except relying on the poor Phoenix..." Dumbledore added.
"Uh..." Jon opened his mouth, just about to explain--
"I found it!" Professor Flitwick's sharp voice suddenly sounded. As he said, he waved his wand as if he was fishing something out of the water.
The egg of a small mountain-sized fire-grey snake floated out of the water; the luster on it ~EbookFREE.me~ gradually dimmed.
Under Flitwick's control, the egg gradually returned to its original size, and then was again sealed by ice.
"A fire-grey snake egg with a swelling curse!" Dumbledore suddenly realized, and then laughed loudly: "Back then, Kettleborn used it to blow up the entire Hogwarts castle. Now you It's really interesting to use it to nearly blow up Lake Hogsmeade... It seems I have to consider adding it to Mr. Filch's list of prohibited items."
...
The referees all left their side.
"Let's go too!" Jon grabbed Astoria and whispered; he was about to take her to a warmer place.
Because she was almost drenched all over her body.
However, someone came over again.
