"This is cattail grass..." Qiqi muttered as she swam. Cattail grass is not an aquatic plant that grows underwater, but a plant that takes root in the shallow water of the swamp and puts its long leaves more than one meter above the water. At this time, it is growing on a large area at the bottom of the Black Lake. And the leaves are softer and much wider.
In order to see clearly what was going on at the bottom of the lake, Qiqi had no choice but to dive underwater and swim close to the tops of the water plants. She carried the long scimitar on her back and swam quite smoothly.
In fact, Qiqi wasn't very nervous inside. It couldn't be said that she didn't care about Bai Lin's safety. In fact, like Hagrid, she didn't think that small projects like finding people underwater would be any threat to Bai Lin.
He should be an omnipotent man. Even Caesar, who is wearing spell-breaker equipment, may not be his opponent. By Bai Lin's side, although Qiqi doesn't say it, she also feels safe. Not only does the nightmare that troubles her Missing, the several cooperative battles with teammates were also very easy. Even such terrifying alien monsters were taken down by them. What danger could there be in a friendly competition in a magic school?
While thinking wildly, Qiqi searched carefully at the bottom of the lake, but she was disappointed. Not to mention traces of Bailin or other humans, she didn't even see any Grindylow or ordinary fish that are common underwater in the wild. At most Some shellfish, crabs and shrimps were seen at the roots of aquatic plants.
Suddenly she discovered a very dense group of water plants, which seemed to be wrapped in a large group of things. Although it didn't look like a human figure, it looked like a long, large leafy sea dragon.

If Qiqi had a camera in her hand, she would definitely take a picture of this thing, but she seemed to be very familiar with Hagrid at Hagrid's hut, and she rarely said on the team channel: Hagrid, I found it at the bottom of the lake. A very wonderful thing, it looks like a dragon made of cattails!
Zhuo Bi and Yu Qian were both stunned. They rarely heard Qiqi speak in the team, and they were even more confused by what she said. To them, the dense water plants in front of them formed various shapes, some of which were Like a cow, some like an elephant, some like a horse, just like the clouds in the sky, the seaweed sways around with the water flow, forming any shape, isn't it normal?
But what surprised them even more was that Hagrid immediately replied to Qiqi: A dragon made of cattails? ... Could it be that it was something the Ministry of Magic put in the lake last night? I guess it might be a water monster, stay away from them!
But Hagrid's reply was still a little late, because Qiqi had already swam to the long dragon made of cattails, because she felt that this thing was really beautiful and full of vitality.
When Hagrid told her to stay away, she grabbed the handle of the knife behind her with one vigilant hand, and the thing made of seaweed in front of her suddenly opened a big black eye.
Qiqi was startled, but the next scene fully showed that the other party was not a gentle and kind little animal. A big mouth suddenly opened in the seaweed and bit Qiqi's waist.
Hagrid also gave everyone popular science in the team channel: Horse-shaped water monsters can change into various shapes. The most common ones are in shallow water, appearing in the shape of horses, with broad-leaf cattail grass as their manes. It lures curious and unwary people onto its back, then dives into the bottom of a river or lake, gobbling up the person until their entrails float to the surface.
The correct way to defeat the Equus is to use a placement spell to put a bridle on its head, and then it will become docile and obedient and no longer pose a threat to you, but don't let it go easily, it will hold a grudge and Curse you.
While trying to avoid the big crocodile-like mouth, Qiqi was speechless while watching Hagrid's popular science. "Don't you know I don't know magic?" Tell me a trick that ordinary people can use too!
If Bai Lin were present, he would definitely complain. Why does every creature have to invent a unique trick to deal with it? How could an adventurer carry all kinds of tools to deal with all the dark creatures in the wild? Originally, there were only thirty or fifty spells in the entire Harry Potter. These spells require a wizard to study for seven years to master. However, in order to deal with the various creatures in it, a spell must be specially created for each animal. This is obviously It is unrealistic and unreasonable. People must pursue applicability when creating new things.
Under the water, Qiqi had already pulled out her long knife and slashed at the horse-shaped water monster's head. However, although she gained underwater breathing and swimming acceleration after eating the gill grass, the resistance in the water made her swing of the knife appear... Slow and weak, the horse-shaped water monster easily dodged, but instead hit Qiqi's stomach with its head, which was bigger than the head of an ordinary Friesian horse. I almost vomited everything out.
Yuxi on the other side also found a giant beast covered in large patches of cattail grass in the water. Although she didn't think Bailin would be trapped by a water monster of this size, it looked like a horse-shaped water monster seven or eight meters long. The underwater search caused huge trouble for them.
A horse-shaped water monster has already discovered Yuxi. When Yuxi tried to swim away, it decisively gave up hiding and pursued Yuxi like a giant crocodile entangled in water plants.
Yuxi held the wand in her hand, turned around and cast a petrification spell on the horse-shaped water monster. However, she got the red magic energy and shot it at the horse-shaped water monster's head, but it was blocked by the thick water plants on its body. It was nearly 60 centimeters wide. His big mouth was about to bite Yuxi's legs.
A glass-like space barrier unfolded behind Yuxi. The horse-shaped water monster suddenly hit the space barrier hard. The huge force directly smashed the barrier, but it gave Yuxi a precious escape. time.
Yuxi looked up and saw that Zhuobi had appeared on the water above her head. It was the space barrier he had released just now.
The horse-shaped water monster closed its big mouth, formed into a ball of seaweed, and rushed towards Zhuo Bi above. Zhuo Bi was stunned. His reflection technique has a big shortcoming, that is, he cannot move flexibly. The horse-shaped water monster is a living target in its eyes.
Zhuo Bi gritted his teeth, took out a small mirror from his pocket, and threw it in front of him. Suddenly, the small mirror turned into a large mirror two meters square.
The horse-shaped water monster rushed under Zhuo Bi's head and suddenly opened its bloody mouth. The momentum was enough to swallow half of Zhuo Bi's body.
Zhuo Bi dove into the huge mirror, and the horse-shaped water monster followed suit without hesitation.
Yu Qian saw Zhuo Bi lure away the horse-shaped water monster, and she couldn't help but sweat for him. Zhuo Bi didn't have time to use the space magic circle, and in his ordinary mirror space, he didn't have that much magical control. It can only be said that by bringing the horse-shaped water monster to land, we may be able to find a chance to win.
Qiqi on the other side has been fighting the horse-shaped water monster for dozens of rounds. Although she cannot use her exquisite knife skills in the water, whenever the horse-shaped water monster wants to bite her body, she can always cut her long curved limbs in time. The knife was stuffed into the water monster's mouth. When the horse-shaped water monster bit it, the blade pierced its mouth. Even though its teeth were sharp and tough, they were not as good as the Damascus knife with the magic edge charm attached to it. Not only did it not bite Qiqi, it also Several teeth were suddenly chipped out.
Qiqi turned over, and her metal right leg was like a sledgehammer, hitting the horse-shaped water monster's forehead hard.
The water monster screamed in pain and subconsciously shrank its head, but this gave Qiqi a chance. She grabbed the cattail leaves on the head of the water monster and inserted the scimitar into the scabbard on its back. She was already riding on it. On the neck of the horse-shaped water monster.
"I can still tame you without a halter!" Qiqi shouted in her heart. She tightly grasped the water plants on both sides of the horse-shaped water monster's neck, clamped her legs tightly around its neck, and leaned her body on the horse-shaped water monster's neck. On my head, I let it roll and struggle, but wouldn't let go.
The horse-shaped water monster first rubbed against the rocks at the bottom of the water, but Qiqi was always able to avoid it in time and used the thick cattail grass on the water monster's body to protect herself.
The horse-shaped water monster quickly rushed to the water, like a dolphin performing in an aquarium, leaping from the water, leaping nearly six meters into the air, and then slammed into the water.
If you are an ordinary person, when you jump out of the water, the water pressure in your lungs will disappear immediately. People will usually take a deep breath, and then when they hit the water again, not only will the impact cause injury and pain, but the breath they just inhaled will also cause pain. If you take a big breath, it will be spurted out by the water pressure in an instant, and you will choke on the water. If it doesn't work once, the horse-shaped water monster can come again, enough to throw the human on its back.
But Qiqi is a killer who has undergone hellish training, and because the gills form temporary gills to avoid choking in the water, these tricks of the horse-shaped water monster are destined to be ineffective.
A wizard from the Ministry of Magic who was patrolling in the air happened to meet a colleague. The two of them lighted a cigarette leisurely and happened to see the horse-shaped water monster jumping out.
"Um, did you see it just now?" the wizard from the Ministry of Magic asked his colleague.
"Damn it, we put it into the lake secretly last night. Mr. Crouch said it must be kept strictly confidential. How did these water monsters jump out on their own?" asked another wizard.
"Whatever, it's almost dark, no one is coming here... I don't know how the warriors who chose this side are doing?" They obviously didn't see the figure on the back of the horse-shaped water monster, and were minding their own business. Bagua said.
"Whatever, it's just a competition between a bunch of brats... I think Mr. Crouch should give us a few days off after the competition..."
Qiqi fell into the water. Without saying a word, she punched the horse-shaped water monster on the head. When she found that there was no force, she suddenly thought of a clever way to deal with the horse-shaped water monster.
The water plants on the body of the Equus are very strong. They are not the real water plants that it randomly wraps around its body, but the camouflage tissue that grows on their bodies, similar to the feathers of birds, but they look very much like large cattails. This layer The camouflage tissue is thick enough to withstand most physical attacks and magical effects.
Qiqi felt that these water plants grew on the horse-shaped water monster, so since the attack was not effective, it would be better to use a hair-plucking attack.
Because the resistance under water is much higher than that of air, hitting and attacking is often half the result, but the pulling force has not been reduced. With the huge power of the magic prosthetic limb, she clamped her legs hard and grabbed a wide "water plant" with both hands. ", with a fierce pull, the horse-shaped water monster only felt a sharp pain on the top of his head, and a "water plant" three to four meters long and one palm wide had been pulled out.
Qiqi clearly felt the horse-shaped water monster tremble, and the speed of its swinging body slowed down a lot. She was so happy that she grabbed another wide "waterweed" with both hands, and made a posture to pull the weeds.
The horse-shaped water monster is not without intelligence. Its series of actions after Qiqi rode on its neck have consumed a lot of its physical strength. Qiqi's "pulling weeds" tactic made it feel deeply threatened. It found that Qiqi would continue to pull out the weeds. , was immediately frightened, and quickly stopped resisting, hovering in the water, wailing "wuwu" in his mouth, seeming to beg Qiqi for mercy.
"Aha! It seems I have a mount in the water!" Qiqi was delighted and patted the horse-shaped water monster's head. She still grabbed the "water plant" on its head with both hands, as if training a horse. Same, commanding the horse-shaped water monster to swim with her.
Just like what Brother Hai said, the horse-shaped water monster became very docile and took Qiqi to swim under the water. Its speed was much faster than that of the mermaid, and it could easily push aside aquatic plants and debris. Qiqi saw clearly the situation under the water.
Qiqi: I have tamed a horse-shaped water monster, and I am riding it to continue my search!
Hagrid: What? Have you tamed a kelpie? A Muggle? ...Um, I mean an ordinary person? Did you meet a baby water monster... blah blah blah...
Yuxi was suddenly embarrassed. She didn't expect that Qiqi could kill one so quickly, and she was still rescued by Zhuobi. Just when she felt a little sour, a third horse-shaped water monster appeared. It was not as big as the previous one. It was big, but it was enough to tear Yu Qian into pieces. It seemed that the Ministry of Magic had set its sights on this area of water. Not only did it want Bai Lin to never return, but it also wanted to catch all the reinforcements who came to help him.
Without Zhuo Bi's help this time, Yu Qi swam faster and escaped, while her mind was racing, looking for a solution. Although she was a wizard, she would definitely be able to place spells, but where could she get a horse-shaped halter? ? Do you think those things are common utensils such as nail clippers and flashlights?
But she was extremely smart, and she suddenly thought that in the first game, Krum used the Eye Spell to blind the fire dragon guarding the golden egg, thus easily winning. You must know that fire dragons have strong magic resistance, and ordinary black and white magic is not very effective against them, but the eye disease spell is obviously an accident.
Yuxi looked back and saw that the horse-shaped water monster was staring at him with its big black eyes. It was obvious that the horse-shaped water monster also relied on vision to find prey. Yuxi quickly recalled Krum's spell. She wanted to help Bai Lin and see how other warriors dealt with the fire dragon, so she watched it very seriously, and it actually made her think of it.
"Ken Zong Ke Kick Dance Tusquez!" Thanks to Yuxi's amazing memory, a black magic energy shot straight out from the tip of the wand, followed by the horse-shaped water monster who screamed in agony. His eyes went dark and he suddenly lost his target.
