Harry Potter and the Temple of Tales

"What happened?"

The students saw that Dumbledore was talking to the fishmen for a long time, and they all expressed their incomprehension. In fact, except for the two parties involved and Dumbledore, who knew the cause and effect from the mermaids, everyone else had no idea what was happening underwater.

I don't know.

"I need to discuss it with the judges."

Dumbledore waved to Louis, and with Astoria's support, he came to Dumbledore's side.

"What's going on with Dumbledore?" Karkaroff shouted, "Isn't the result already obvious?"

"Some unexpected situations occurred." Dumbledore glanced at Karkaroff, "The mermaids were devastated by fire under the water. According to what the mermaids just said, it was Louis who saved them, so he came a step too late."

"Impossible." Karkaroff immediately protested, "The temperature under the water is so low, how can fire magic be used?"

"What if it's Li Huo?"

Dumbledore's words made everyone quiet down. Li Huo's appearance surprised them all, including Astoria who was accompanying Louis. She knew very well what Louis had gone through there.

Astoria's eyes were filled with tears, and she held Louis' hand tighter, for fear of losing the person in front of her.

"Dumbledore, did it say who released the Fire?" Madame Maxime was the first to break the silence. In their eyes, Fire was the category of black magic.

"It's a shark, I think the result is obvious." Dumbledore looked at Karkaroff again.

"Are you trying to say Krum?" Karkaroff's voice was trembling, "Are you trying to frame me? How could students be able to master such advanced magic as Li Huo?"

Karkaroff was right. If you want to learn to master the powerful fire by yourself, you must have advanced magic skills. After all, talents like Louis are rare.

"Don't be nervous, Igor, it seems I didn't explain it clearly." Dumbledore said calmly, "The rules don't say that you can't use black magic, but what I want to explain is that although Louis was the last one to come ashore,

But he saved two people at the same time, so the scoring criteria need to be considered accordingly."

No one else had any objections, only Karkaroff was a little unhappy, but considering that everyone agreed, he did not raise any objections.

Moreover, it is already acquiesced by everyone that Krum used Fierce Fire first, and he did not have the confidence to question the fairness of the game.

"In that case, I think we can give a score." Dumbledore made a "please" gesture to the two children.

"Excuse me, Miss Greengrass, please help him sit back down."

As soon as they returned to their seats, they were met by the Delacour sisters. Fleur and Gabrielle were soaked to the skin.

"Congratulations." Louis said weakly, "You should be the first."

"No, this first place should be yours." Fleur shook her head, knowing very well that if Louis hadn't suddenly come to help, she might have been killed by Grindylow.

"You saved us, thank you, Louis."

Only then did Fleur really begin to treat Louis as a friend. She used to be arrogant. Although she had been defeated by Louis, she was not convinced.

Gabrielle winked at him and stepped forward to hug Louis, while he glanced at Astoria and found that the girl didn't pay much attention to this matter.

"Good luck to you."

Fleur and Gabrielle left, and soon after, Harry came to them with Hermione and Ron.

"Louis, it's great that you're okay!" Hermione looked a little nervous, "Harry just told me that you saved both her and me."

She pointed to Astoria who was next to Louis.

"It's nothing, we are all friends." Louis was a little embarrassed, "And at that time, Klum really couldn't spare any time..."

Krum's strange behavior forced Louis to be more vigilant again. Although he had passed two projects, there was no doubt that he would still take action in the third maze.

"Louis, what do you think our ranking will be?" Harry was still more concerned about this.

"It won't be low anyway." Louis spread his hands, and as soon as he finished saying this, Dumbledore's voice echoed throughout the entire competition venue.

"Ladies and gentlemen, after our discussion, we have rated each player. Now I will announce the results."

Dumbledore paused for a moment, and the riotous crowd gradually calmed down. They all wanted to know the score of this second event.

"Miss Fleur Delacour, she bought herself precious time with her excellent bubble head spell skills. She was the first warrior to rescue the hostages. Although it was a little over time, we decided to give her a score of 47 points.

"

There was a burst of not very loud applause from the stands. After all, Fleur was a student of Beauxbatons. And she herself was very satisfied with the score and even felt that she should not have such a high score.

"Second, Victor Krum. Obviously Mr. Krum was not present. He used the transformation technique and achieved perfection. However, he angered the mermaids in the mermaid tribe and was besieged. He used the magic spell to escape but was destroyed.

He entered the mermaid territory and failed to rescue a single hostage in the end, so we finally decided to give him 20 points."

Strictly speaking, Krum did not complete the task and exceeded it by quite a lot of time. The 20 points he was given was considered a favor.

"The third one, Mr. Harry Potter, he made excellent use of herbal knowledge and used gillyweed as a survival prop. He was the first person to reach the mermaid territory, although he was the second one to successfully rescue the hostages.

, we gave him a 43-point rating."

The students at Hogwarts applauded enthusiastically, especially the Gryffindor students. Harry's high score of 43 points was only 4 points lower than the first place Fleur.

"Only Louis is left," Hermione said.

The students waited quietly for Dumbledore to announce the final result. Dumbledore cleared his throat and continued:

"The fourth one, Mr. Louis Wiggins, was the last warrior to come ashore and successfully rescue the hostages. However, according to reports from the mermaid tribe, when Mr. Krum destroyed the mermaid territory, it was Mr. Wiggins who helped restore and rescue the hostages.

He conquered the mermaid tribe, and when facing hundreds of Grindylows, he was fearless in the face of danger. He also completed a feat that other warriors had not accomplished, and at the same time rescued two hostages."

"This not only reflects his bravery and superb skills, but also his profound belief in sacrificing for others. Therefore, we made an exception and decided to give Mr. Wiggins a 48-point rating!"
