Chapter 107: Hermione, Do You Want to Be a Warrior?
After the dinner, Dumbledore stood up again.
Without him speaking, the auditorium fell silent. Excitement and nervousness permeated the crowd.
Everyone knows that the main event is coming. Dumbledore is about to reveal the selection method for the Warriors.
The selection method expected by the top students is the same; The selection of the expectations of the scumbags is different.
The former hopes to fight for results; Latter...... Fight for dad, fight for connections, fight for chaos, or fight for appearance...... As long as it's not a spell exam, it's okay.
There are also some people who can't fight anything, like Ron...... Hope for the draw!
It's just a matter of luck.
Wait a minute...... It can't be a Sorting Hat, right?
The students at Hogwarts remembered the broken hat.
Dumbledore didn't ask everyone to wait, and ordered, "Bring the box." ”
Filch immediately ran towards a hut.
"Over the past few months, Mr. Bagman and Mr. Crouch have worked tirelessly to arrange the Triwizard Tournament." Dumbledore exclaimed.
The twins scoffed. Crouch they don't know, but Ludo is a gambler and a lot of debt.
This old liar.
Dumbledore continued, "Together with me, Professor Karkaroff, and Madame Maxime, they will form a panel of judges to judge the efforts of the Warriors. ”
Filch trotted over, he was a little agitated and out of breath. That funny look made everyone laugh.
Dumbledore took the wooden box and placed it gently on the table in front of him.
"Mr. Bagman and Mr. Crouch have been warriors and have developed three interesting projects.
Before the game, no warrior will know about the game!
And these programs, which take place at different times throughout the school year, will test the Warriors in many different ways.
Put their magical talents, guts, reasoning skills to the test – and, of course, their ability to overcome danger! ”
At the hearing of the last sentence, the auditorium fell silent, and it seemed as if everyone had stopped breathing.
"You already know that there will be three warriors in the competition, selected from three schools." Dumbledore said calmly.
"We rate each person based on the quality of the project they complete, and for the sake of fairness, we remove the highest score and remove the lowest score."
Karkaroff pouted, seemingly dissatisfied with the stipulation.
Yes, when Dumbledore proposed this rule, he vehemently objected.
But the strange thing is that the more he opposes, the more everyone agrees.
Can you disagree? If you are so opposed, doesn't it mean that you will give low marks to others and high marks to your own students?
There is really no quality at all!
Sitting in the chair, William, looking at Karkaroff, couldn't help but laugh.
This is what he proposed, to guard against Karkarov's shamelessness.
Rita doesn't think highly of him. Maxim's evaluation is also very appropriate: bully the soft and fear the hard!
This kind of person who has no discipline still has to be guarded against.
Dumbledore pulled out his wand and tapped the lid of the wooden box three times.
The lid slowly creaked open. He reached in and pulled out a rough-cut wooden goblet.
The cup itself is not at all inconspicuous, but there is a blue-white flame dancing inside.
"The one in charge of selecting the warriors is an impartial selector, the Goblet of Fire."
Everyone stared at the cup curiously, feeling that it was unremarkable.
What everyone doesn't know is that there are two dragons living in it, and one of them is destroyed...... Venice.
The two of them were bound to the Holy Grail by Merlin's magic, as a core for energy.
They could not escape, and their power was completely suppressed, almost becoming one with the Holy Grail.
"Every student who wants to run for the Warriors must write their name and school on parchment and throw it into this goblet."
Dumbledore said.
"Tomorrow night, Halloween night, Goblet will choose the names of the students it thinks best represent the three schools."
"Ahh He smiled and said:
"Lest the younger ones fall short of temptation," said Dumbledore, "I'm going to draw an age line around the goblet when it's in the foyer."
No one under the age of 17 can cross this line.
I'll make sure ...... No underage wizard can be a warrior! ”
The students immediately burst into an uproar and loudly discussed the selection method.
It seems that the Goblet of Fire can pick out every school...... The strongest wizard!!
At the Slytherin table, a group of Durmstrang students exchanged heads and muttered to each other.
"We're not here in vain, the students at Hogwarts are all fans of Krum...... Also chasing stars, this bunch of waste! A wizard named Poliaco looked at Krum with jealousy.
"yes, I just asked that idiot named Malfoy about Hogwarts changing a Defence Against the Dark Arts professor every year." Another person said.
"Our school can negotiate black magic, as long as it can be selected...... Must-win, hehe. ”
"That's right, brothers, we're going to work hard...... Come to Hogwarts and let them know how good we are! ”
At the Slytherin table, a few Durmstrang students whispered.
"Heh~ I saw a few Slytherin students praising Krum, and I thought that Hogwarts students were like this?"
Judy Crouch, who was not far away, clasped her hands to her chest and sneered.
"Let's beat the best one!"
Poliacco touched his scalp and asked, "Who can fight best at Hogwarts?!" ”
"Of course it's Stark, is it me?" Judy rolled her eyes.
"Age Boundaries!"
At the Gryffindor table, Fred Weasley's eyes were also sparkling.
"That's easy to do, you should be able to be deceived by age inteners, right? As long as your name goes into that cup, you can laugh happily - it can't tell who is over seventeen and who is not! ”
Ron leaned over and asked eagerly, "Is it really possible?" Which of you two is going to give it a try tomorrow. ”
He wanted to be a warrior and was going crazy.
That girl named Fleur is so beautiful. As long as he can become a warrior and win the championship, he will confess!
George patted Ron on the shoulder and said seriously, "Since you are so anxious, it will be up to you to test whether the age booster works tomorrow!" ”
"No...... I don't ......," Ron immediately shrank in fear.
No, Dumbledore said there was an age line. What if there is danger?
"Little brother, you can't refuse." Fred smiled.
"According to the agreement, you are our contracted medicine man, otherwise you will pay those Galleons yourself, right?"
“……”
The students all stood up and walked towards the break room.
William left with a group of girls, and the other people who watched were envious, jealous and hateful.
"Fleur, are you going back to the carriage?" Hermione asked.
"Yes, Madame Maxim demanded that all the students must go back." Fleur glanced at the guest of honor table and said with some regret, "I still want to go to your dormitory." ”
Gabrielle also leaned into Anne's ear, asking...... Will she be able to blend into Gryffindor's women's dormitory.
She wanted to sleep with Anne in the Gryffindor girls' dormitory.
Anne rolled her eyes and said in a low voice, "I'm afraid it won't work tonight, I'll ask Hermione where she put the Cloak of Invisibility."
I'll steal it tomorrow, and then you come over in it. ”
Gabrielle glanced at her sister and nodded vigorously.
William is chatting with Treenne.
"Although Karkaroff would not dare to make a move on you at Hogwarts." William explained. "But be careful."
"It's okay, I really have to do it, I don't know who suffers." Tremier smiled fearlessly.
William sighed inwardly, and found that Professor Barburing said that it was right, that Trenee was indeed suitable to go to the United States to help her.
The men parted at the intersection, and Anne followed behind William and Hermione, staggering and refusing to leave. In the end, he was driven away by Hermione.
In the end, only him and her remained.
The two skillfully turned a few corners, avoided the crowds, and took a leisurely walk in the remote corridor.
"Anne seems to be obedient today." William wondered.
Usually seeing him and Hermione want to be alone, Anne will destroy all kinds of things, like a dogskin plaster, and she can't shake it off.
Hermione raised her eyebrows and smiled, "She wants to steal my invisibility cloak for Gabrielle, she doesn't want to annoy me, that's why she's so obedient." ”
"How do you know?" William's curiosity piqued.
"It's easy." The corners of Hermione's mouth couldn't hide a smug smile.
At dinner, Gabrielle asked what the girls' dormitory looked like and how many people could live there. Will anyone come to the school to check on the bed?
She had just whispered to Anne, and Anne was suddenly so obedient...... She would only do that when she asked me. ”
William was a little impressed.
When we first met, Hermione, who was unfamiliar with the wizarding world, was not yet Annie's opponent. It's not like it's being grabbed yet.
Hermione smiled intoxicatingly, took William's arm, and said with a smug face, "I'm amazing, right?" ”
"Awesome!" William smiled, "Then are you going to give her the Cloak of Invisibility?" ”
"If she can steal it, she can steal it." Hermione snorted, "I'll just pretend I didn't see it." Most...... Remind Fleur. ”
Terrible...... William felt it from the heart this time.
Neither side can be offended, and both sides can eat both.
"Do age-boosters work?" Hermione asked.
"It doesn't work." William shook his head, "Professor Dumbledore has long taken into account that his age line has an effect similar to that of a trace, and the age booster can't hide it. ”
"That's right." Hermione wrapped her arms around William's arm, and the weight of the mass grew heavier.
She leaned on his shoulder and whispered, "Warrior......"
William put his arm around her waist and suddenly asked, "Hermione, do you want to be a warrior?" ”
"Huh?" Hermione looked up in confusion.
"You know, Dumbledore thinks this competition can train some students." William explained.
Hermione pondered William's words.
"Be confident." William tugged at Hermione's face and smiled.
"You've been training professionally with me every night for more than two years.
If there is no age limit, if I don't participate, you are also the strongest wizard in the three schools...... No one is your match. ”
Hermione hid in his arms and whispered, "Is that okay?" ”
William hugged Hermione and said, "With me, something happened at Hogwarts...... None of it. ”
