Green light illuminated the dim maze. Looking at the killing curse passing through his body Lucas frowned.
"You react quite fast!"
Krum was wounded all over his body at this time. Especially the wound made by the cutting charm, which was bleeding continuously.
But under the control of the Imperius Curse, these injuries did not affect his actions at all.
"Crucio!"
Krum launched a second spell.
Blocking the spell easily, Lucas flicked his wand, and the opponent flew several meters away.
"Stupefy!"
Before Krum stood up from the ground again, the white light of the Stunning Charm hit him.
The strength gap between the two was just too large. Lucas didn't even dare to use too much force, for fear of accidentally killing Krum.
The fake Moody hiding in the shadows also noticed Krum's situation.
'Lucas Grindelwald!'
He glanced fiercely at the direction of the fight gritting his teeth in anger, turned around and continued to walk deeper into the maze.
In this maze, there were actually quite a few people who could easily defeat Krum. But most of them won't make a move, so Lucas was the only one among those allowed to act who can easily defeat him.
Having his plan destroyed once again, Barty was upset, but there was nothing he could do, so he just went to keep helping Harry Potter.
Looking at the map fragments recovered from Krum, Lucas carefully identified them and realized just how exaggerated the Potter luck was. Not even one of the three fragments collected by Krum were the same as his.
"This is the last one!"
Lucas took out his map as he spoke.
Seeing the monster protecting the sixth map fragment, there was a hint of surprise in his eyes.
"What a coincidence!"
Lucas closed his eyes, looking for Cedric's whereabouts. At this moment, a furry paw appeared beside him without anyone noticing.
The animal's claws flickered and disappeared so quickly that even Lucas didn't notice anything unusual.
Finding Cedric's magic, Lucas was surprised that Harry was also beside him.
Harry felt very unlucky. He was obviously walking in the direction pointed out by the directional spell. But after turning a few corners, he returned to the original place.
If it's just going back to the original place, it wouldn't matter, but unfortunately, he happened to meet Cedric who was being chased by a giant spider as well.
"Harry, help me!" Cedric yelled out of breath.
His voice directly exposed Harry's position, so much so that the giant spider also noticed him.
Harry cursed at this, turned around and ran away along the maze passage.
"Harry, let's attack its legs, that should be enough to stop it."
"Okay!"
Although he was complaining in his heart, he still accepted Cedric's plan.
The two stopped, and when they turned around, the spells had already flown from the top of their wands.
"Diffindo!"
"Confringo!"
Cedric's spell cut a leg of the giant spider, which made it pause for a moment. And Harry's Curse directly broke one of the spider's legs.
The severe pain made the giant spider turn absolutely berserk. It used the remaining legs to prop up its body and started spraying transparent venom from its sharp fangs.
The faces of the two changed drastically, and they hurriedly turned around to run away!
But Cedric accidentally tripped over a hedge branch while running.
Seeing the giant spider chasing after him, he hurriedly shouted: "Harry, help me!"
But what answered him was the decisive back of the "savior".
Sharp fangs pierced Cedric's leg and his miserable cry made Harry, who was running ahead, shiver. He didn't dare to look back at Cedric's appearance at this time and could only keep running away with his head down.
"Perfect!"
When Lucas walked out of the void, Cedric had fallen unconscious.
"Imperio!"
"Go after another man!"
The giant spider obeyed the order and quickly chased in the direction where Harry was escaping.
"Episkey!"
Lucas's wand burst into a white light, and where the light shone, the wound healed quickly.
Finishing fixing Cedric's wound, he reached into his robes, ready to take out the antidote and feed it to him. But when he put his hand in his pocket, his expression suddenly froze.
Carefully touching the pocket, he found that the three map fragments he had just obtained were missing.
"Interesting, they stole my things without me noticing!" Lucas chuckled lightly.
He put away the silver fur in his hand, took out the antidote and fed it to Cedric. Seeing his face return to ruddy, he took out the silver fur again.
'Eye of Foresight!'
His eyes looked like an endless starry sky, with what looked like a falling star passing by from time to time.
Immediately afterwards, an elegant ape-like creature covered in silky silver fur appeared in Lucas' mind.
A Demiguise!
This is a very rare magical animal. They are docile and quiet herbivores whose fur is used to make invisibility cloaks.
Lucas couldn't figure out why such a creature appeared in the maze.
Is it just to let it steal the player's map fragments?
Anyway, he still decided to cross the void to find the Demiguise who dared to steal from him.
But after he walked out of the void, he didn't find that naughty little guy. Lucas was sure that the Demiguise wasn't evading him using its invisibility.
"What a tricky fellow!"
He took out the fur of the creature again.
In the picture seen this time, the Demiguise raised its head, and blue light bloomed in its big black eyes.
Good guy, it was also predicting the future. No wonder Lucas didn't find it.
After many predictions and moving through the void, Lucas finally caught this little guy that was running around.
The Demiguise was busy predicting the future at this time when it was suddenly surprised, stopped its predictive ability, and slowly raised its head to look at the figure in front of it.
Seeing the Demiguise take the initiative to hand over the map fragments, Lucas was amused by its awareness of current affairs.
"Little guy, do you want to come and live in my garden?"
The Demiguise's eyes shone blue once again. Obviously, he is predicting its own future.
Successfully abducting a Demiguise, Lucas was going to see how Harry was currently doing.
…
After being pursued and constantly attacked by that giant spider all this time, Harry leaned his back against the hedge wall as he raised his wand to guard against the spider in front of him.
There were bruises all over his body. The giant spider seems to be using him as a toy.
During several attacks, it was obvious that it could use its fangs to end his life at any time, but it just didn't do that.
"Protego!"
After blocking the Giant Spider's attack again, Harry took the opportunity to run to another passage.
But how can a person with two legs run faster than eight legs? Well, six legs since he and Cedric took off a leg each. So it didn't take long before he was caught up again.
And this time the giant spider directly bit his trouser leg and threw him to the ground fiercely.
Perhaps it was dissatisfied with the human in front of it that had escaped many times, so the spider hit hard this time.
There were several more wounds on Harry's body and there was even a trace of blood dripping from the corner of his lips.
Struggling to get up from the ground, Harry was angry in his heart, and his eyes became fierce.
Reminding what Professor Moody taught the other day, he slowly raised his wand, turning all his anger and hatred into power.
"Avada Kedavra!"
The green light appeared again, this was the third time that the Killing Curse had appeared in this maze.
The first two killing curses did not cause serious consequences, but this time it was different.
Harry put his hands on his knees, breathing in the fresh air with big gulps.
His heart was beating very fast at this moment. It was the first time he used the Killing Curse, and he successfully killed a giant monster with it.
This made him feel both scared and a little excited.
Fear is because he was worried about it being known by others.
If this matter was exposed, even if he is the famous boy-who-lived, he wouldn't be able to escape the fate of being sent to Azkaban. Or that's what he thought, since he didn't know anything about wizarding laws.
So when he looked at the giant spider's corpse again, a trace of cruelty flashed in his eyes.
"Reducto!"
The spell pulverized the spider's corpse.
Seeing a map fragment falling from the corpse, there wasn't much joy on Harry's face.
It seems that after using the killing curse, his character had undergone some subtle changes.
Lucas stood invisible in the corner, seeing it all with his eyes. Harry became so different that even he couldn't help frowning.
He was quite sure that this had nothing to do with the curse he cast on him years ago.
After all, the function of the Curse of Desire is to take the desires deep in the heart and amplify them constantly.
Unless… Killing is the deepest desire in Harry's heart!
A light flashed in Lucas' eyes.
Although this explanation has no basis, he plans to try it out and draw conclusions from his test.
Seeing the back of Harry starting to move again, Lucas immediately entered the secret garden, and soon picked up a few little guys from it!
"Good boys! Go play with Harry Potter, and hand over these map fragments to him by the way!"
Passing the three maps in his hand to the little guys, he let them go and watched them disappear from his sight.
