Chapter 279: After the Game and Changes (Asking for Subscriptions, Asking for Collections, Asking for Tickets)
When Ryan walked into the tent, most of the people had arrived. Harry stood there and greeted Ryan, "You were so good at that, Ryan. ”
"The same goes for you. Ryan smiled at Harry and said, "Very clever, and the fastest one." ”
Just as the two men were blowing each other, the curtain of the tent was lifted, and a mummy-like man wrapped in a white bandage slowly moved in in a wheelchair. At this time, the whole tent fell silent all at once.
"Is this Krum?" Harry whispered to Ryan in a surprised tone.
"It should be. Ryan nodded slowly. "I heard from Madam Pomfrey during my medical check-up that Krum's whole body was scorched by dragon fire. When I first went out to check the score, I saw St. Mungo's healer coming, and the dragon fire may not be so easy to treat. ”
Finding that the atmosphere in the tent was starting to be wrong, Bagman hurriedly said: "The wounds on Krum's body have been examined by the professional therapists of St. Mungo's Bioinjury Department and confirmed that they can be fully recovered within a week, so please don't worry about safety, the Ministry of Magic has invested enough strength in the safety and security of the participants in this competition, and it can ensure that everyone can pass the competition smoothly." ”
Bagman's speech was indeed passionate and engaging enough. It's a pity that the krum in the wheelchair who was tied up like a rice dumpling made his speech less convincing. When he finished, all the contestants just smiled politely in response.
Bagman was aware of this as well, so he began to give a direct account of the next task: "Although everyone has been ranked in this game, it is important to remember that there are three games. So you don't have to pay too much attention to the results of the first game. ”
After a brief summary of the previous game, Bagman finally moved on to the next game: "Okay, I only have a few words to say. The second project will start at half past nine in the morning on February 24 next year, and until then, you can rest for a long time - you look down at the golden eggs in your hands and you will see that they can be opened...... See the seam there? Now open it. ”
"What? Open the golden egg? This is - the content of the game has changed. Ryan suddenly became excited, and it seemed that the butterfly effect he had brought had worked in all aspects.
At this time, everyone had already begun to open the golden egg, even Krum stretched out his tightly wrapped palm to break the seam, and Ryan quickly put away his thoughts at this time and began to break his golden egg.
It was not a hassle to break the golden egg, and after the golden egg was opened, a transparent crystal pillar that slightly emitted a milky white light was revealed.
"Alright, you guys hold this crystal pillar now. Bagman shouted. Everyone did as they were told, and soon the light of the crystal pillar converged, and then the color changed to a faint gold.
"Very well, these crystal pillars are kept by you, and they will be used in the game when the time comes, please don't lose them. Now, give me the golden egg. ”
The six golden eggs that had become empty were handed out one by one, and Bagman carefully took them and put them away in a wooden box with grooves behind him - Ryan was curious about what the next match would be, because of the change in the plot, he couldn't guess this at all, after all, there were so many triwizard tournaments in history that they couldn't be screened.
When all the golden eggs were placed in the box, Bagman locked the box in front of everyone and then had two staff members take the box away. He then motioned for Ryan and the others to leave, and when he took them to the tent, Bagman mysteriously told them that the contents would be revealed when the time came for the competition.
"You'll need to say that then. Once out of the tent, the contestants dispersed, and Ryan whispered Bagman's last words and walked towards the castle with Harry and a large group of classmates.
"Ryan, please wait a minute. Halfway through them, a shout came from behind them, and Ryan turned his head to see that it was Charlie chasing after him.
"You guys go back first, I think Charlie may have something to do with me. After seeing off his classmates, Ryan stood where he was, and soon Charlie ran in front of him.
"Thank you so much just now. Charlie gasped and said. "Sasha is now saved, and we just found out she's much better behaved than before. Now, when it comes to physical examination, as long as we say it, she will cooperate directly. She was a big problem when I was in Romania, and she burned this scar on my arm. ”
"It's nothing, after all, I caused this after all. So I'll have to make up for it. Ryan felt that the dragon had suddenly become well-behaved because the dragon was a very aggressive creature that would only submit to those who defeated them head-on. And Ryan just subdued it, which made it learn to respect wizards again.
Just like the dragon in the basement of Gringotts, after being subdued, it will naturally reflexively produce fear. It's just that the dragon in Gringotts is subservient to Jingle Piece, and this dragon is subservient to the man with the wand.
"That's right, here's for you. After expressing his gratitude, Charlie pulled out a large crystal bottle containing a full pint of red liquid. Ryan could feel the energy contained in the liquid.
"This, this is too precious for me to accept. Ryan declined. He recognized it as dragon's blood, and the jar in front of him was estimated to cost around 300 Galleons. After all, this is the blood of a real dragon, and its value is much higher than those dragon creatures in Diagon Alley.
Yes, the dragon skin gloves and dragon liver sold in Diagon Alley are not from the fire dragon, otherwise the dragon liver would definitely not be cheap to seventeen sicos an ounce. True dragon products are very expensive, for example, Ryan bought a tube of true dragon blood a few years ago, and it turned out that it cost ten Galleons for less than twenty milliliters. What made him even more depressed was that after cultivating the dragon grass, he could indeed spew dragon flames, but there was not a drop of dragon blood. This completely bankrupted Ryan's plan to grow dragon's blood on the farm.
Seeing Ryan's resignation, Charlie immediately understood that Ryan was wrong, so he hurriedly added: "This is not a personal gift from me, it was asked to give it to you by the director of our dragon farm." We know that a vial of alchemy that can save a dragon is very expensive, but we don't have much cash, so we can only take this payment. By the way, just now our field manager asked me to ask you if you still have that medicine, and if so, we are willing to pay for some good things. ”
"Rich. Ryan thought to himself. Because the only ingredient needed for this potion is sunlight crystals, and Ryan has a lot of land in both worlds that is rich in this thing. But he also knows that this kind of business has to be tricky, and the price is too high to be appropriate.
After thinking for a while, Ryan took out two test tubes from his arms that were exactly the same as just now and handed them to Charlie, and then said, "This thing is expensive and troublesome to make, and you can make one or two in a month, so I want 200 Galleons for one." But if you're a friend, I'll make a hard-earned profit, and you can take 150 Galleons. These two are samples for you, if you use them and think they are good, you can come to me to buy them. By the way, this potion can also be used by people, and theoretically a person can replenish all his vitality by drinking one-third of it. The only problem is that it can only replenish vitality, not treat it. ”
"It's- thank you so much. Charlie took the test tube with some embarrassment and said, "Many times the potion doesn't have time to work after the dragon is injured, and with this you can buy enough time to heal." ”
After a brief exchange of pleasantries, the two said goodbye, Charlie hurried to the dragon trainer's tent, and Ryan walked back to the castle happily humming a song.
