Labyrinth, Crouch Jr Is About To Kill His Father!

Because the hot summer is not far away, the temperature in May is very pleasant, and even going out of the castle at night will not feel too cold.

Without having to wear their heavy winter clothes, boys and girls can show their good figure to others.

The five champions walked together on the grass leading to the Quidditch pitch, perhaps because of the second task, they didn't talk much.

The mighty Lucas was the most relaxed of the five while the other four looked like they were frowning.

"What do you guys think the last task will be about?"

Under the night, Cedric's voice suddenly sounded.

His tone was slightly disturbed, probably because he was worried that the task could be even more dangerous than the previous two.

"It should be similar to a treasure hunt, the first and second tasks were like this."

Cedric glanced behind him full of emotion. Unexpectedly, Lucas, the strongest among the five, was the first to answer his question.

Lucas smiled back. For a moment just now, he really had the idea of helping Cedric.

After all, everyone else looked preoccupied, and they obviously didn't seem like people who could answer questions.

With Lucas answering first, others began to speak their minds.

Fleur thought it would probably make them dig deep into the ground to find the Triwizard Cup.

The sky and water have already appeared in the first two tasks, so she thought it was reasonable to have the earth element in the third one.

Her idea was shared by several others.

At this time, they finally arrived at the Quidditch pitch. From a distance, the originally flat and smooth court had almost completely disappeared.

The Quidditch pitch was now full of waist-high bushes that spread in all directions.

"Hey! What are they doing?" Cedric asked loudly, dissatisfied.

No Quidditch player would like to see their pitch destroyed like this.

Harry next to him also frowned: "It's like a hedge!"

"Good evening, everyone!"

Ludo Bagman's voice suddenly came from the side. He walked up to the champions and led them into the stadium.

At this moment, the traceless extension charm was applied to the inside of the stadium.

The quidditch pitch, which was already huge in size, has now become beyond sight.

Bagman led the crowd across to the middle of the court.

"How is it? Are you looking forward to the final task?"

After he finished speaking, he pointed around. Standing here, they could clearly see the surrounding stands.

While the champions were observing their surroundings, Bagman continued: "Of course, what you're seeing is not the final version."

"Under Hagrid's care, these hedges will grow a couple meters in a month, so does anyone know what the third competition event is?"

"Maze!" Krum said gruffly.

"That's right, it's a maze. During the competition, the Triwizard Cup will be placed somewhere in the maze. The first person to get it will get 50 points."

"You all know your scores. Whoever gets the Triwizard Cup first will become the champion of this year's Triwizard Tournament. In addition to the prize of 1,000 Galleons, the champion will also get eternal glory."

Glory!

Hearing what the third task is about, several people looked at each other with vigilance in their eyes.

But not long after, three of them looked at Lucas. If they want to win the competition, Lucas Grindelwald is the biggest obstacle.

Bagman smiled satisfied when he saw their reactions.

"However, it is not an easy task to reach the Cup. You need to collect map fragments in the maze to eliminate the competition between you."

"The map is composed of six fragments, and the complete map will guide you to the location where the Triwizard Cup is located."

"But please note that although there are many map fragments in the maze, there are only enough to form two complete maps."

"And there are many dangers in the maze, such as cute animals provided by Hagrid, small monsters and magical herbs provided by Professors Moody and Sprout."

Harry and Cedric looked at each other with fear in their eyes, they knew very well what kind of creatures Hagrid considered cute.

"On the day of the competition, the person who ranks first in points will have the opportunity to enter the maze first."

Bagman looked at Lucas with a smile on his face, and then he looked at Krum and Harry.

"First will enter Mr Grindelwald, then Mr Krum and Potter, then Miss Delacour, and finally Mr Diggory."

"Before the final game starts, we will invite your family members to watch it. Well, that's all I have to say. Do you understand?"

Seeing everyone nodding, Bagman said happily: "Very well, you can go back now."

"Harry, please wait a moment, I want to talk to you."

Harry frowned, he didn't really want to talk with Bagman.

Just then, Krum and Cedric came to Harry's side.

"Harry, do you want to talk to us about..."

Although Cedric didn't finish speaking, the look in his eyes towards Lucas already showed his meaning.

"Of course!" Harry accepted the invitation immediately, then turned to respond to Bagman.

"You also saw sir, I have some things to do now."

"Then I'll wait here for your return."

"No need, I still know how to get back to the castle."

He rejected Bagman decisively.

Harry didn't care whether he would get mad at him, and followed the other two out of the court with long strides.

'Those three are planning to collude against me?'

Seeing the appearance of the three of them, Lucas quickly thought in his mind.

Then he remembered that in the original book, Krum and Harry went to the Forbidden Forest to have a talk, and then met the half-crazy Barty Crouch Sr.

He didn't know if they would meet this time as well.

Watching the three of them heading towards the Forbidden Forest, he directly cast a disillusionment charm on himself and followed.

As for Bagman and Fleur?

He believes that the two smart people will not talk about this matter.

Fleur saw that only herself and Bagman were left in an instant, so she walked towards the castle without interest.

Bagman waited on the spot for a few more minutes. Finally, he returned to the castle helplessly.

However, it could be seen from his eyes that he didn't seem to give up his plan to talk to Harry.

…

Deep in the Forbidden Forest.

Wearing an invisibility cloak, Barty Crouch Jr. carefully searched for any possible hiding places.

Ever since he received a letter from Wormtail his heart was in his throat. He was worried that his father would suddenly appear at Hogwarts and destroy his master's plan.

So even without his master's order, he will also do his best to keep his father out of Hogwarts.

These days, he has been wandering outside the castle every day hoping that with the help of the magic eye, he can be the first to discover the whereabouts of his father.

At night, he wore an invisibility cloak and went into the Forbidden Forest to search.

He still vaguely remembered that when he was a student at Hogwarts, his father had said that there were several good hiding places in the Forbidden Forest.

Thinking of his own father who could speak multiple languages. It's hard to say if he might be good friends with some of the magical creatures in the Forbidden Forest, like the Centaurs.

So the first thing he did was go to the Centaur tribe, but unexpectedly, what appeared before his eyes was a dilapidated scene.

Obviously, he didn't know that the centaur tribe had been destroyed on Lucas' orders a long time ago.

"Damn it, where did that old thing hide?"

A desperate voice sounded from the empty Forbidden Forest.

Suddenly, not far away came the sound of tree branches being trampled on.

Not long after, a figure stumbled out of the darkness.

Barty Crouch Sr was in quite a bad state right now. The tattered robes proved that he had traveled very hard all the way.

There are still many small injuries on his knees, and there are even a lot of bloodstains on them. The originally meticulous gray short hair became very messy at the moment.

Old Crouch looked pale and haggard, with many blood streaks on his face. He muttered something inaudible to others in a low voice, looking like a madman.

Being controlled by the Imperius Curse for a long time caused serious damage to old Crouch's brain.

Seeing his father whom he hadn't seen for a long time, Barty Crouch Jr's expression became a little excited.

He took off the invisibility cloak and walked to the other side.

When he saw his father whispering to a big tree, he leaned close to the other's ear and whispered, "Father, why are you running away?"

"If you didn't escape, maybe you could still survive. It's a pity."

Barty Crouch Jr. drew out his wand, intending to use a spell to end his father's life.

"Father, it looks like you are suffering, why don't you let me send you to meet my mother."

Just when he was about to say that extremely evil spell, there was a conversation behind him.

Immediately afterwards, a deep and thick voice came: "Who is there?"

Too late to think about it.

Barty Crouch Jr. put on the invisibility cloak again, and since he still looks like Alastor Moody at the moment, he must not be seen meeting Crouch Sr.

"This is Mr. Barty Crouch!"

Crouch Jr saw Harry with two other champions getting close to discovering his father and immediately started to feel anxious.

If the three of them were to send his father to Dumbledore, his master's plan would definitely be ruined.

He was afraid that the resurrection of his master would need to be postponed.

'No, you can't delay the master's important event!'

Just when he was thinking about how to get his father, he suddenly saw Lucas' figure coming from a distance.

Seeing that dazzling blond boy, he suddenly had an idea in his heart!.
