The answer to this puzzle is actually quite simple.

After a brief moment of confusion, Harry, Harry, and their companions arrived at the answer— the Veela.

Veela lose their beautiful appearance when they fly.

Its face will elongate into a pointed bird head with a sharp beak.

A pair of long, scale-covered wings will sprout from its shoulders.

When they are on the ground, they are undoubtedly the center of attention, a dazzling sight.

After arriving at their initial conclusions, the three of them immediately returned to the ground.

A man carrying a broom entered the Great Hall.

Harry discovered that

His earmuffs were back to normal.

The Fire Dragon Toy in his arms also started moving again.

It was shifting its little bottom, trying to find a more comfortable position.

Upon entering the Great Hall, the three sat down at the Ravenclaw table, and a flood of questions arose.

A protective spell was cast to prevent the sound from spreading.

The three began their discussion.

The riddle makes no mention of a fire dragon.

Harry and the others all knew that the Second Task would involve riding dragons.

Moreover, if the obstacle in the competition is the Veela.

What's so scary about them just because they're good-looking and can throw fireballs in their bird-head form?

Finally, what exactly is the treasure in the riddle?

Ron guessed, "It might be your best friend, like me."

Ginny glared at Ron and said, "The riddle is about the 'most beloved' 'treasure'."

They definitely don't count as friends.

What else could it be but me?

Harry quickly changed the subject, "Alright, let's think about what's so scary about the Veela."

They were actually made to be obstacles in the second stage.

The first challenge, you should know, is a fire dragon.

"Danger? I don't see anything wrong with it," Ron said, drawing out his words with exaggerated emphasis. "They say Veela have amazing beauty..."

Their skin glowed with a soft, moonlit light, and their hair flowed behind them even without wind.

Their charm can drive men crazy and infatuated.

Ginny stroked Harry's cheek tenderly and complained, "This isn't fair!"

Is that Phoebe a woman, or Half-Veela?

I seriously doubt that her relatives will give her preferential treatment because of this.

"Yes! That's it!" Harry said excitedly, grasping Ginny's hand.

"Hey! I'm still here!" Ron rolled his eyes.

"Is it not allowed?" Ginny glanced at Ron, then looked at Harry. "Do you want to touch it? How's this pressure?"

Harry took Ginny's hand again. "That's not what I meant."

Fair!

Right!

It's all about fairness!

Our competition involves riding dragons.

If we don't receive the buff from group magic in this match.

Logically speaking, dragons are far more powerful than Champion.

Veela's beauty only drives men crazy.

Phoebe is a witch and Half-Veela.

It's impossible for the referee panel to have made such a huge mistake.

This, taken together, illustrates one point: the Veela, acting as obstacles in the competition, were not affecting the Champion, but rather the dragons.

"A fire dragon? Isn't Veela's beauty only attractive to men?" Ron stroked his chin in confusion.

Ginny understood immediately, looked at Harry with admiration, and said, "Us!"

The riddle is about us.

A group of Veela gathered together, their charm might create a fusion.

Or perhaps it was the effect of some kind of magic from Durmstrang.

After all, Veela is the mascot of the Bulgaria National Team.

It also attracts creatures other than males.

What we Champion should do is eliminate Veela's influence on the fire dragon.

Arrive at the final location and retrieve your treasure.

There may be many obstacles in this process.

Champion may fall from the sky multiple times.

The clothes imbued with multiple protective spells likely existed for this purpose.

"Durmstrang?" Ron repeated, puzzled. "What does this have to do with Durmstrang?"

Durmstrang mainly recruits students from Scandinavia.

Harry, who had taken Muggle geography classes, asked, "Scandinavia?"

As far as I know, Scandinavia refers to Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Finland, and Iceland, as well as their associated territories: the Faroe Islands, Greenland, the Åland Islands, and Svalbard Islands.

But I remember Durmstrang also recruited Germany students.

Germany isn't in Scandinavia; it's in Central Europe.

"That was only in modern times; the former Prussia region of Germany could barely be considered part of Central and Scandinavia," Ron replied.

Then he looked at Ginny and asked, "So you're saying Durmstrang also accepts Bulgaria students?"

Ginny looked speechless. "Aren't you a fan of Krum?"

The full name of the Bulgaria National Team is the Bulgaria National Quidditch Team.

Only Bulgaria sorcerers can join.

The Bulgaria National Team also wore bright red robes.

It's exactly the same as Durmstrang's school uniform.

"So, Krum has the advantage in this Krum."

No wonder he found out about the competition so quickly.

"Their international mascot," Ron exclaimed.

Harry waved his hand. "You can't say that."

Although Ilvas was not seen flying high in the sky on a broomstick.

But he may not have failed to solve the puzzle.

And Phoebe.

She doesn't need to care about these things at all.

She's Ryan's girlfriend.

She is not simply Half-Veela.

Although I have never seen Veela, I can tell from the descriptions in the book.

Phoebe Delacour's charm is almost comparable to that of a group of Veela.

Her half-sister, Gabrielle, was quite ordinary compared to Phoebe.

I think she must have learned some useful magic from Ryan.

To amplify her charm and expand her goals.

For example, in the first match, I noticed that Phoebe's charm even affected the Opaleye she was facing.

The Second Task, I estimate, happened while we were busy clearing away interference for the fire dragon beneath us.

Those Opaleye, so captivated by Phoebe that they're practically obsessed with Phoebe, will likely help Phoebe find her lost treasure very soon.

"What's the big deal?"

After all, it's Ryan.

I always thought Harry would definitely come in second place in this competition.

However, I'm more curious about what Dracula's treasure will be.

If it's Ryan.

"If he's unwilling, this match probably can't continue," Ron said calmly.

"Not necessarily. Harry is the best," Ginny said, sticking out her neck.

However, after she finished speaking, she felt a strange sense of secret joy.

Ron's stance is so wavering.

Perhaps Ron's feelings for Harry in that aspect weren't as deep as she imagined.

So Ginny changed her mind again, "Second place is fine."

The Triwizard Tournament has now been broadcast live.

Whether you win the championship or not is not important.

The important thing is to break out of character.

The winner is the one who performs the best in the competition.

Phoebe's magical abilities are too profound.

The audience couldn't understand it at all.

She might be able to gain attention because of her beauty.

But later on...

When everyone realized that Phoebe won as soon as she stepped onto the stage without doing anything.

A panel of judges who understand the text might give her a high score.

But the audience won't.

In the end, Harry will still be the winner!
