Harry Potter’s Strongest Senior

Chapter 374 The Secret in the Golden Egg

Two days have passed since the fourth competition, and the tension within each group has become increasingly tense.

Those with high points are fine, but those with low points are not pleasing to everyone. The two sisters Emmeline and Amel, who had a good relationship with each other in the Musiala group, no longer sit together to eat together.

"I'm sorry, Thicknesse must have done it on purpose. The rules of the fifth competition were announced just after the fourth competition. It's okay now. These guys are all vain." Sean looked at the contestants dining in the auditorium. .

Each group still held golden eggs in their hands. No one had cracked the secrets in the golden eggs in the past few days. When each group opened the golden eggs privately, everyone was struck by the piercing magic sound that almost penetrated their brains.

Now everyone knew that the information on the next project was not given for free and needed to be decrypted. As a result, the team members had their own thoughts and no one was willing to seriously study together to crack the secret of the golden egg.

Even if someone knows the secret of the golden egg, they keep it to themselves and pretend not to know.

"Hey, Sean, haven't you finished eating yet?" Mom patted Sean on the shoulder from behind.

"Not yet, what's the matter? Is there something wrong?" Sean knew in his heart what his mother was here for.

Mother grinned, "Does Golden Egg have any clues?"

Sean took a sip of cream of mushroom soup and said calmly, "I gave it to Klum to study this morning. I looked at it all afternoon yesterday and my ears almost burst, but I didn't see anything."

Their group takes turns to distribute the golden eggs every day. Yesterday it was Sean and today it was Klum. Whoever discovers some secrets will not be known to anyone else.

"That's it. If you find anything, please share it with us." Mom said.

After Sean got the golden egg alone yesterday, he returned to his dormitory. Although he knew what the golden egg was about, he still had to open it to confirm just in case.

There was no bathtub in the dormitory, and Sean didn't want to go to the prefect's bathroom, so he turned a basin into a bathtub in the dormitory. After putting warm water in it, he didn't sit in it.

Sean put the golden egg into the bathtub, then stood beside the bathtub and slowly bent down, submerging his head into the water. The lock on the top of the golden egg opened with Sean's twist.

A wave of water rippled in the bathtub, and the noisy sound that originally filled the ears with the magic sound disappeared, replaced by a melodious female voice singing.

"It is indeed the same as the original plot." Sean thought to himself. After listening to the first few lyrics, they were basically consistent with what was described in the original plot.

"Look for us wherever our voices sound

We can't sing on the ground

When you search, think carefully

How to help your team gain an advantage

How to keep yourself going

..."

Sean pulled his head out of the bathtub. He didn't bother to wipe the water droplets off his face, and quickly took a deep breath and immersed himself in the water again.

The lyrics actually revealed the specific rules of the next competition, which Sean didn't expect.

"It's still a group stage. This rule is really messing up."

Thicknesse only mentioned part of the rules three days ago, that is, after the fifth competition, the person with the lowest points in the group will be eliminated.

In this way, everyone naturally regards the members of their own group as opponents.

"Competitors search for glowing pearl oysters in the black lake. Each pearl oyster earns one point. The time limit is one hour. The team that finds the most pearl oysters will get priority in the sixth competition."

"Competitors can use their existing points to redeem the corresponding number of magic uses before entering the water. For limited magic, one use of the fainting spell is 2 points, one use of Expelliarmus is 3 points, and one use of the transformation spell is 4 points."

Sean was sorting out the fifth rule of the competition that night, and the more he thought about it, the more interesting it became. “We’ll see what those guys have in mind then.”

The fifth rule further tests the intelligence and strategy of the players. The rule of exchanging magic will probably make most people want to break their heads.

Ramos, who was passing by, muttered in a low voice, "What a waste of communication, it's still a group match."

In Ramos's group, Dusana, Watson, and Ginter didn't communicate with him at all. In addition, he was at the bottom of the group in terms of points. Now Ramos was under a lot of pressure.

After hearing this, Mom felt that Ramos had offended him, so she said, "Are you anxious? Your group is from the same school. It will be even more uncomfortable if they don't let you play."

Ramos' sensitive point was touched and he immediately became furious, "Our group's business is none of your business."

Mum was not good-tempered either, and was about to snap back at this. At this moment, Sean put down the spoon and stood up, putting his hands on their shoulders.

"Everyone else is watching. If you have time to argue here, why not go back and think about how to decrypt the golden egg."

The two glanced around, and the students and contestants who were dining all focused their attention on them. The two glared at each other with ugly expressions and hurriedly left the auditorium.

It seems like six teams are trying to decipher the golden egg, but in fact it's 24 contestants each showing off their special abilities. Whoever can decipher it wins, and if others can't decipher it, it's better.

The players at the two tables of Babston and Durmstrang, who had been together in groups after breakfast, now went their separate ways.

This situation gives Sean a lot of room for maneuver. Now everyone in the group is wary of each other, especially those at the bottom.

Cedric and Chris are both facing elimination in their respective groups. If the information in the golden egg is told to them, at least they will not be ignorant before the game.

"But Cedric should have discovered it himself." Sean remembered that in the original plot, Cedric decrypted the golden egg first and reminded Harry by the way.

Sean was still thinking about notifying all the other Hogwarts contestants privately, when the newspaper delivery owl flew in from the window of the Great Hall.

A newspaper landed on the table of Kris, an annual member of the Daily Prophet.

"What's the news today?" Sean asked leisurely. He knew that Chris usually wouldn't look at it for too long, and he would be able to do it for free after a while.

Chris looked at the home page. There wasn't much happening recently, but Sean saw a report that interested him in the international news section on the back.

"The largest moon gold mine in the wizarding world was attacked. 6 kilograms of raw moon gold ore was stolen, which is worth 22,879 galleons at today's exchange rate. The Ugandan Ministry of Magic has thoroughly investigated all incoming wizards and reported it to the International Federation of Magic for a global arrest."

The Ugandan magic world is the richest region in Africa, simply because they control the moon gold mine and the snake head fruit on Alcatraz Island.

There are many people who want to take advantage of these two golden mountains, but this is the first time in the past fifty years that they have succeeded.

"It's true that people die for money and birds die for food, and the wizarding world is no exception." Sean thought to himself.

That night, Voldemort, who had not been seen for a long time, was summoned by the mysterious leader.

"Leave this to you, complete it within 2 months." The leader threw out a space storage bag.

Voldemort lowered his head and responded to the leader's order with extremely cruel eyes, "I understand."
