Harry Potter: I Am a Legend

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

Under the pressure of the water, 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.

Then, 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, and he tremblingly lay on Osivia's snake's tail, shaking his head vigorously, trying to shake off the cold.

The ice surface breaks quickly, and Osivia is even 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 shuddered 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 drenched 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...however it collapses, it collapses." Hoffa's teeth trembled, shaking with the cold, no matter how strong Power also seemed to be of no avail in the face of the natural cold.

Osivia didn't answer, she quickly drew her wand and tapped Hoffa.

"In addition to water and moisture."

Soon, the water on Hoffa's body was sucked away by the 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 water that was about to freeze on her body quickly evaporated.

She looked at the collapsing ice in the center of the lake, her brows furrowed.

"how so?"

After a while, Hoffa slowed down. He looked at the smoky water, turned his hand and plunged his hand into the lake water. The temperature was about zero degrees. The normal ice water temperature would not melt the half-meter thick ice. .

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

"wrong."

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

Hoffa looked down and saw that a thin fiery red line was engraved on the edge of the broken ice. This thin line stretched forward, but wherever it stretched, the ice surface broke and fell off.

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

"Who uses it here?"

Hoffa was puzzled. Looking at the scale of the ice fracture, a wizard could not complete it at all. At least dozens of wizards would cooperate to achieve it.

"Not sure."

Osivia drew out her magic wand and touched the lake.

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

She stretched out her hand to Hoffa: "Let's go, no matter what happens, go and find the library first."

After boarding the ice boat, Hoffa still trembled for a while before the body's core temperature gradually rose. 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 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 that he knew that this senior sister did not have a strong sense of direction, and in such a dense fog, he was not sure whether the other party could grasp the direction.

"I'm familiar with this one."

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

Hoffa exhaled a breath of smoke, rubbed his hands, and said nothing.

Due to the inexplicable fall into the ice lake, Hoffa's mental force field has been on since he boarded the ship.

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

Looking down, faintly, something is swimming in the black lake, and it is very hazy across the lake.

One of the underwater creatures sensed Hoffa's mental field, so it swam out of the water slowly.

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

As it approached the surface of the water, the creature flipped silently and turned into a backstroke. With a splash of water, a violent creature unexpectedly got out of the water.

She climbed onto the ship's edge and slowly straightened up, revealing a charming girl's face, with water drops dripping on her face, lying on the ship's edge and looking at Hoffa, smiling.

Her brown hair was wet, her chest had some hazy tulle, her bare forearm joints had erected fins, and her collarbone had dots of transparent scales.

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

It turned out to be a mermaid.

The scene is indescribably weird.

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

Hoffa could see a trace of desire and temptation in the other's eyes, as if she was silently inviting herself to swim with her.

At this moment, an inexplicable sense of familiarity came to my heart, and then Hoffa remembered it. It seemed that it was the little mermaid wrapped around his fingers and spraying water on his face when he was entering the first grade.

How could it be so big?

"are you ready?"

The mermaid asked in a low voice.

Hoffa could hardly hear him, he rubbed his ears: "Ah, are you talking to me?"

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

The mermaid looked a little scared. She looked at Hoffa and whispered: "Be careful."

After speaking, she turned her head and dived into the water with a puff. The tail shook a few times and disappeared into Hoffa's mental field.

Osivia: "Scottish Lake Fairy, 4x-level magical creature. Lifespan is only 10 years. When I was in school, I often swim with them. Their saliva is the material of ecstasy. If you kiss it, you will be caught by it. Confused, dragged into the water."

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

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

Osivia paused, and said with doubts: "Something is wrong. The Lake Demon won't appear in winter. What happened?"

At this time, the surface of the lake narrowed, and the shedding ice gradually narrowed into a waterway.

Hoffa, who had been nervous all the time, saw some moving shadows 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 he could only stare at her.

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

Suddenly, she and Hoffa disappeared into the air.

As the fog diminished, 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 demon.

But it was very different from the girl lake monster he had just seen.

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.

Among them, 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. Where they have been scratched on the ice, red lines have been carved out.

The ice that fell off just now 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, after the dense fog subsided, the surrounding ice was actually full of male lake monsters. There are at least several hundred in number.

Hoffa swallowed, feeling a little dry on his lips.

He had almost never heard of this scene, 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 took a turn for the worse. In the Black Lake, his combat power had to be sharply reduced by at least 90%, and he didn't have any polymorphism that could be performed 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 at Osivia, and Osivia shook her head, pointed at the ice in the distance, pointed at the lake, and made a swimming pose.

Hoffa's eyes widened. He understood what Osivia meant. She wanted 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 boat would attract the attention of the mermaids.

Hoffa gritted his teeth and nodded.

Osivia didn't hesitate, and put her hands under Hoffa's ribs.

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

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

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

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

The biting temperature made Hoffa's brain almost rigid.

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

The craziness of life was always beyond his expectations. One hour before he was eating Christmas turkey in the school lobby, and one hour later, he was crossed and swam under the half-meter-thick ice block of the Black Lake. There is an indestructible block of ice above his head, and an unknown abyss beneath his feet.

As long as Osivia is slightly careless, even if it is a physical cramp, she and herself must be dead.

Fortunately, the teacher of the transformation class did not make any mistakes. She swam for about a minute. Just when Hoffa was holding her breath to the point of choking, she covered Hoffa’s mouth with one hand, and took out her wand with the other hand. A circle was drawn on the ice.

The ice circle falls off.

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

At this moment, Hoffa's face was pale, too cold to speak. His teeth and bones rattled together.

He braced and climbed up, pressing on the ice, and starting to do push-ups frantically. While pushing up, he turned on the activated state. Constantly repairing 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 squeezed her wand, and she clicked on herself and then on Hoffa. Sucked away the terrible ice water.

Afterwards, she hugged her shoulder with one arm, and the fingers of her right hand drew a green magic circle in the air. The circle was engraved with a lot of information.

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

Afterwards, she stared intently 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 her head: "I don't know, this situation is weird. I notified the Aurors at the school and asked them to be fully alert. If something happens, someone will come to support us immediately."

"The Aurors guarding the hunting ground are yours?" Hoffa asked with a frown.

"To be precise, it is some of my father's colleagues in Wiesengamo."

Osivia stood up, "It's not too late, 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.
