Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
"Of course I have many ways to knock down a dragon or steal the golden egg right under the dragon's nose, and a wise Ravenclaw can come up with at least two dozen identical solutions in a minute. β
"But none of your plans work for me, I'm just a fourth-year wizard, not Merlin's reincarnation. Silver said with a sad face, "I need a foolproof plan, using Transfiguration is too risky, I can't guarantee that the dragon will be interested in the animals I conjure." It's definitely not a matter of thinking about using a spell to attack the dragon directly, and it's not for nothing that I have a spell that can penetrate the dragon's skin and knock down the fire dragon, but which dragon do you think will wait quietly for me to finish reciting that long spell without the dragon's breath to greet me?. β
"That's your problem anyway, little Jack, it's impossible to do things without taking risks, if you can't find a breakthrough in the spell, why don't you think about the ancient magic text?"

"Jack, now the Warriors are going to go down there...... You're ready, this is your first project. Professor Flitwick hurried to the auditorium and stopped Silver as he was eating.
"Professor, I'm in such a hurry, I haven't finished eating yet?"
"Because the other contestants looked like they couldn't eat, the jury decided to start the game a little earlier, go quickly, Jack, and eat slowly when you have more time than you have. β
Professor Flitwick led him around the edge of the Forbidden Forest to a tent.
"I'll just send you here, you'll go in with the other warriors, and someone will come and tell you about the precautions of the game. Professor Flitwick winked at him, "I think you're prepared." β
"Don't worry, Professor, I've put a lot of thought into today's game. β
Silver walked into the tent, he was the last to arrive, and the other warriors were all sitting on their stools, their faces pale. Fleur Delacour sat on a low wooden stool in the corner. She was not at all as calm and composed, and she looked sickly. Victor Krum said nothing, his face gloomy. Harry Potter also stood to the side dumbfounded, his face tense.
"Alright, we're all here. Bagman, dressed in an old Hornets uniform, said cheerfully, "I'm going to pass this bag to each of you in turn," he held up a purple silk bag and shook it at them. I have one more thing to tell you...... Ah, right...... Your mission is to pick up golden eggs!"
"Ladies first. He said, handing the bag to Fleur Delacour.
She put a trembling hand into the sack and pulled out a small, delicate model of a dragonβa Welsh green dragon with a number tied around its neck: two.
Krum pulled out a bright red Chinese fireball with the number three tied around his neck.
Silver drew a silver-blue Swedish short-nosed dragon with the number one tied around its neck.
Harry Potter slowly reached into his silk pocket and pulled out the last Hungarian tree bee, Number Four.
"Alright, you've all got it!" said Bagman, "you've all drawn the dragon you're going to face, and the number around its neck is the order in which you went to fight the dragon, understand? Mr. Silver, you're the first, and you walk into that field as soon as you hear the whistle, you know? So...... Harry...... Can I say a few words to you? Come outside?"
"Hmm...... Good. Harry Potter said with a blank look on his face. He stood up and went outside the tent with Bagman.
But Silver didn't have time to care about what was going on between Harry Potter and Bagmanβthe whistle sounded a moment later.
"Oh, I'm the first, good luck with me, I'll try to get off to a good start. Silver said to Fleur and Krum. They barely managed to squeeze out a smile in response.
"Hello fellow viewers, I'm sure you all already know who I am, but for the sake of those who still don't, I'd like to introduce myself - I'm Ludo Bagman, Director of Physical Education at the Ministry of Magic, and I'm excited to be back at Hogwarts to cover the Triwizard Tournament in an unprecedented spectacle. And the first event of our warriors' game is to steal the golden egg in front of a fiery dragon!" Bagman's voice was clearly transmitted to every corner of the field through guΓ² amplification magic.
"Let's take a look, this fire dragon on the field is a relatively rare Swedish short-nosed dragon, this big silver-blue guy looks very beautiful - and of course it is also very dangerous. It can breathe dazzling blue flames from its nostrils, and this blue flame is very powerful, even among fire dragons, the Swedish short-nosed dragon is in the top three in terms of fire power, and compared to its dragon breath, the Swedish short-nosed dragon is slightly inferior in hand-to-hand combat - but this is only relative to the fire dragon, I don't think any wizard would think that he can knock down a fire dragon with his fists. β
The audience burst into laughter.
"Alright, our number one warrior is in place, please give him a round of applause! The first warrior to challenge the fire dragon is Jack Silver from Hogwarts Ravenclaw House. He's waving to everyone, and he looks confident, let's see how Silver will face a fiery dragon?"
"Oh, look, Silver is starting to cast spells, hey, he's turning a rock into a Scottish Shepherd, is he going to get this dog to attract the attention of the Swedish short-nosed dragon? But this shepherd dog alone is not enough, the Swedish short-nosed dragon can easily spew flames a hundred feet away - oh, Silver still has movements, he has conjured a lot of paper birds, is Mr. Silver planning to put on a summoning transformation show?"
"Look, the Swedish short-nosed dragon didn't pay attention to the paper birds, and the fire dragon was quite intelligent, but it had already set its sights on the Scottish shepherd who was strikingly towards it, and it flew towards the dog. At this time, Mr. Silver was still unhurried and commanded the paper birds to fly towards the dragon's nest. β
"The Scottish Shepherd looked good, it had dodged the deadly dragon's breath several times, oh oh, the fire dragon was furious, this time it couldn't dodge, oh my God! it hit the bull's-eye, now it was Silver's turn! The fire dragon had already pounced on him! and Silver seemed to be frightened, he stood still and did not move. Off-site dragon trainers, please be ready to help!The Swedish short-nosed dragon spewed hot blue flames at Silver!Oh my God, Mr. Silver is gone.Where did he go?"
There was a lot of noise in the audience.
Bagman's surprised voice rang out again: "Oh my God, he actually appeared in the dragon's lair! Who can tell me what is going on, why did Silver teleport into the dragon's lair? Is it an apparition? No way, the ancient enchantment of Hogwarts ensures that no wizard can apparilate in school, but how did Silver do it? He bent down and picked up the golden egg, and he succeeded! Applaud Silver for his success! What a beautiful tactic, he took the golden egg from under the dragon's nose without any damage!"
