Marvel's Hogwarts Wizard

Chapter 626 Jerry, the Inventor of Spells (Second Update)

After Hermione was called away by Professor McGonagall, Jerry, Harry, and Ron walked along the long wooden bridge toward the towers. The tower in the middle was the main tower, and the two towers on either side were the audience towers for the young wizards.

"Jerry, we'll cheer you on!"

When they reached the fork in the road, Harry and Ron greeted Jerry and then ran towards the tower on the right where the Gryffindor students were gathered.

Jerry smiled and nodded, continuing to walk towards the central main tower.

As soon as he stepped onto the main tower, he saw a table covered with a gold tablecloth in the most prominent position in the tower, with five seats behind the table.

That was clearly where the five referees were positioned.

However, only four of the five seats were occupied by referees; Dumbledore was not there.

Jerry knew that Dumbledore was currently casting a special spell on Hermione and the others that would allow them to survive underwater.

Besides the referees, you can also see the Hogwarts teaching staff on the main tower, including Headmaster Snape, the new Potions Professor Foster, Madam Pomraporn who came to the rescue, as well as Professor Flitwick, Professor Sprout, and Hagrid, among others.

Along with two other players, Fleur and Krum, who were also participating as warriors, they arrived much earlier than Jerry and had been waiting for quite a while.

"Your most beloved treasures have been placed in the Black Lake. The second challenge is to find and safely bring your respective treasures ashore within the allotted one hour."

The warrior who takes the shortest time will score the most points.

Now, there are fifteen minutes left before the match starts, so you can make some preparations in advance.

Just a heads-up, there are many mermaids and their pet Grindylows at the bottom of the Black Lake, so remember to bring your wands!

Ludo, the referee and host, saw that all three brave warriors had arrived and began to loudly announce the details of the second competition.

The young wizards on both sides started discussing the second competition item after hearing about it.

Most young wizards didn't know what the second item was before this.

In their view, finding something in such a large black lake while avoiding attacks from mermaids and Grindelho was no easy task.

With the help of the two headmasters, Fleur and Krum had already unlocked the secret of the golden egg and learned about the competition, so they were well prepared, both in terms of the magic they needed to deal with and the appropriate clothing.

Krum and Fleur took off their long wizard robes, revealing swimsuits underneath, and began their warm-up exercises before getting into the water.

Upon seeing this, the young wizards on both sides forgot about discussing the competition and turned their attention to the scene, letting out screams and whistles.

Both Clemens and Fleur have their own supporters, or more accurately, fans. It's hard not to get excited when you see your idol warming up in a swimsuit.

Of course, as Hogwarts' home ground, Jerry has the most fans, especially female fans, not only at Hogwarts but also at the other two schools.

Unfortunately, when the little witches turned their expectant gazes to Jerry, hoping that he would take off his wizard robes like Krum at this moment and stand there warming up in just his swim trunks, it was all in vain.

Jerry, however, made no move to take off his wizard robes. Instead, he stood gracefully to the side, watching Krum and Fleur warm up just like everyone else.

After the initial disappointment, a sense of unease suddenly arose in everyone's hearts.

Krum and Fleur had clearly unlocked the secret of the golden egg, so they had even prepared their swimsuits in advance.

Jerry didn't prepare a swimsuit, does that mean he hasn't unlocked the secret of the golden egg?

"You haven't solved the secret of the golden egg?"

After warming up, Hibiscus looked at Jerry standing there and asked him directly.

In her mind, the golden egg shouldn't be too difficult for Jerry. Although Maxim helped her unlock the egg, it was to speed up the process so she could prepare the spells in advance and have more time to practice.

Even without the principal's help, she could unlock the secret of the golden egg with her abilities, it just wouldn't be as fast.

So in her mind, Jerry was much stronger than her and Krum, so it was impossible for him not to be able to unlock the secret of the golden egg. Even if he unlocked it later and didn't have time to find a solution, he should at least have a swimsuit ready.

Upon hearing Fleur's question, everyone perked up their ears, not only the young wizards in the two towers, but also the tribunal and the professors of Hogwarts.

They also wanted to know whether Jerry had unlocked the secret of the golden egg.

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Jerry smiled and said:

"It's undoed. I've just invented a new water-repelling spell. When we enter the Black Lake, our clothes won't get wet, so we won't need to change."

Everyone was stunned upon hearing this.

Then, I couldn't help but sigh inwardly, "No wonder he's Jerry."

When a normal wizard encounters this situation, their first thought is to see if they can find the corresponding spell, magical item, magical herb, etc. to deal with it.

Only Jerry, a master of modifying and inventing spells, would think of directly inventing a spell that could counteract it.

This isn't just genius, this is downright prodigy.

"Okay, never mind."

Furong couldn't help but twitch her lips.

She truly regretted asking that question; wasn't she just asking for trouble?

You see, after she unlocked the secret of the golden egg, she finally found the Bubble Head Charm that allowed her to move underwater, and then practiced diligently under Principal Maxim's guidance until now, finally mastering the spell.

It turns out that Jerry created a magic spell himself, and his clothes didn't even get wet.

Before the competition even started, her confidence had already dwindled by half.

Krum was just as frustrated as Fleur, but he was a little better off. He felt that while Jerry's spell could keep clothes dry, it might not be as fast as his method.

Moreover, finding "treasure" in such a large black lake requires more than just strong magic; one also needs sufficient physical strength to explore. His body is clearly much stronger than Jerry's and Fleur's, giving him a significant advantage in this regard.

Just as everyone was marveling at Jerry's ability to invent spells, Dumbledore finally arrived at the referee's seat and nodded to Ludo, who was in charge of the proceedings.

Seeing this, Ludo checked the time, then walked to the edge of the tower and used a megaphone spell to shout loudly:

"Two minutes until the match. All three warriors, please come this way. You can set off when you hear my whistle!"

Upon hearing this, Jerry and the other two walked one by one to Ludo's side and stood in a row, waiting for his whistle to sound.

The young wizards on both sides stopped talking and began to hold their breath.

"Beep~~~"

Two minutes later, a long whistle blew.

Krum and Fleur simultaneously raised their wands and began casting spells on themselves.
