Caught off guard, Kakarov's gray hair was exposed to the cold air.
Krum seemed to wake up from a dream. He hurriedly trotted two steps, bent down, picked up the muddy hat, and patted it hard.
"Headmaster, please listen to my explanation." Krum anxiously tried to put the hat back on Kakarov's head.
"I don't want to listen." Kakarov snatched the hat from him with an unhappy face, and the little curly goatee on his thin chin curled up and down. He was too ashamed to say anything more.
"I protest, I've been tricked. There must be a conspiracy. I want to withdraw from the competition." Krum wanted to grab his headmaster, stretching out his bare arm from the thick cloak.
"Are you worried that your beloved will be harmed, or are you afraid of competing with other schools because Demstrand's Warriors are only at this level?" Allen stood calmly on the side, provoking him with a half-smile.
Kakarov wanted to refute, but he saw that the surrounding reporters had already pointed their cameras at them and were obviously preparing to record the questions and answers. He roared angrily, understanding Allen's plan. He impatiently grabbed Krum's shoulder, turned him half a circle, and fiercely pushed him in the direction of the Lakeside Warriors. "Shut up, don't disgrace Demstrand, and focus on the competition!"
A few minutes ago, in the audience, Sirius was dressed very formally. Although he was thin, his handsome face and melancholy eyes were irresistibly attractive.
Under the eager gazes of many witches, he walked to the VIP area where Mr. Harris and his family were.
After some small talk, Sirius explained his purpose of coming. "Harry wrote to me in detail about his participation in the competition. Thank you, Allen, for your help to Harry."
Mr. Harris smiled and waved his hand. "They are classmates and friends. It's natural for them to help each other."
The sound of Bagman announcing the list of hostages interrupted their conversation. When he heard that the hostage Krum was going to rescue was Ron, Sirius felt uncomfortable. The stories in the newspapers about the relationship between Ron and Krum were actually true.
He had seen with his own eyes how close the relationship between Harry and Ron was. The two of them were almost inseparable, eating and living together for three years …
In the cold wind, the handsome Sirius was in a mess. Did he see Ludo? Bagman came to the Warriors and ordered them to line up on the shore, ten feet apart from each other.
"Everyone, listen up. Our warriors are in position. When I whistle, the second event will begin. They had a full hour to take back what had been taken from them. I'll count to three. One … Two … Three! "Bagman's voice was like thunder, sweeping across the dark lake and reaching the spectator stands.
A shrill whistle echoed in the cold, still air. The stands burst into cheers and applause.
Harry was last in line, next to Krum. He glanced at Krum, took off his clothes, and stretched his body in the cold wind.
Krum was wearing swimming trunks. He had already taken out his wand and was ready.
Hibiscus Chinensis received the most attention. Through the soft fabric, one could imagine her snow-white and bright body, full and hot.
Allen, who was standing next to her, was the complete opposite of her. He was dressed neatly, and even his black cloak was not taken off.
"Why isn't Allen taking off his clothes?"
"I heard he has a good figure."
"He will definitely use his Animagus to teleport to the hostages."
"But he doesn't know where the hostages are!"
"He can still use other magic."
…
There was a lot of discussion in the stands. Compared to the other Warriors, who were wearing skimpy clothes, Allen could simply attend a banquet.
The other Warriors could not wait to enter the water. On the one hand, they wanted to save the hostages and win the competition. On the other hand, it was unbearable to stay on the shore without clothes in this cold winter.
Allen stood calmly on the shore. He quietly pressed the Perception Mark and sensed Luna's position.
Laughter came from the stands. Compared to Hibiscus Chinensis and the others who had already entered the water, Allen had not shown any magic ability.
Suddenly, the field quieted down. A low voice came from the depths of the lake.
Everyone listened carefully. The voice was weak at first, but it gradually became louder and louder. In front of Allen, a huge wave surged.
It rumbled, as if there was an earthquake — an earthquake from the bottom of the lake.
The waves surged, and as Allen gradually raised his arms, the waves grew higher and higher, like an incomparably huge fountain.
It rose higher and higher, over Allen's head, like a tall building.
Allen stretched out his arms and pointed forward. The huge wave suddenly split to two sides, revealing the bottom of the lake.
The little wizards in the audience were stunned. They couldn't help but think of the time when the great wizard Moses led the Hebrews through the Red Sea. The God made the sea water part, revealing a dry land, and the sea water formed walls on both sides of them. The Hebrews crossed the sea as if it were flat land.
Even a small adept from a family of adepts wouldn't be able to see such a spectacular scene every day.
Kakarov leaned back in his chair in the referee's seat, arms crossed in front of his chest, and sneered disdainfully. "It's fine if he only used a transformation spell to temporarily divide part of the lake, but who does he think he is? The great wizard of ancient Judah, Moses? How can an underage student have the magic power to support him to separate the lake and walk to the hostages? "
Like Kakarov, many of the adult wizards in the audience felt that this young wizard was too arrogant.
On the contrary, the young wizards in Hogwarts knew that Allen would never do anything he was not sure of. They were full of confidence in Allen.
Hermione in the stands did not think that Allen would have any problems. Instead, her eyes were focused on Professor Snape, who was not far from her.
She found that Professor Snape was a little strange today. Since the start of the match, he had been looking at her with pity from time to time.
When Bagman introduced Allen, his attitude towards Allen was different from before. Hermione could faintly hear him cursing something like "naughty pure-blood".
The audience burst into enthusiastic cheers and applause. The young wizards jumped up from their chairs and cheered loudly for Allen.
Allen headed straight for Luna at the bottom of the lake. As he moved forward, the lake water in front of him gathered into a pile. The water stood upright like a wall, separated on both sides, and the lake water seemed to have been condensed into a wall. Not far behind him, the wall of the lake quickly collapsed, and after the stormy waves, it returned to calm.
