Chapter 171: The First Project
The night was as lonely as water, the deep black sky was like a satin velvet curtain, a lonely moon hung high in the sky, and the cold moonlight was smeared on the forbidden forest, becoming more and more lonely and gloomy.
Augustus walked alone on the forest path, his slender figure reflected in the silver moon, as if there was only one person left between heaven and earth. Beauxbatons's huge carriage was also brightly lit, and the yellow light was uncertain, and the entire Forbidden Forest seemed even more difficult to fathom at this moment.
Augustus knocked on the door of Hagrid's hut, and Harry had been waiting for a long time in the small room.
"You're finally here, Mr. Augustus," Hagrid greeted in surprise, and Harry smiled as well.
Augustus had a question on his face, "I don't know if there is anything important at such a late hour?" ”
"yes," Harry nodded, "what the hell is going on?" ”
Hagrid smiled a little mysteriously, "It's important to show you something. ”
Hagrid's expression was very excited. There was a sprig of flowers stuck in the buttonhole of his clothes, like a very large artichoke. It seems like he doesn't put the oil on his head anymore, but he must have spent a lot of time combing his hair.
"Harry has an invisibility cloak to hide, and Mr. Augustus you should have a way to cover himself, right?" Hagrid looked at Augustus with trust, and saw Augustus nodding with an honest smile on his face, "So, you come with me, we don't bring tooth and tooth, it won't like it......"
With that, he opened the door to the hut and strode into the darkness. Harry and Augustus both looked at each other, and then they followed. In the night, the two figures gradually disappeared into the moonlight.
They had already walked far around the edge of the Forbidden Forest, and the castle and lake were out of sight. Augustus heard some noises not far away. There were several men shouting loudly in front...... Then there was a deafening, shrill roar......
This voice? Augustus looked thoughtful in his eyes, it seemed that he should be, but what was the reason for bringing them here at this time? Could it be that Hagrid gambled from strangers again, ready to show off in front of them?
The three of them walked around a bush and stopped. The next moment, what greeted his eyes was no different from what Augustus had expected, but in terms of quantity, he was obviously miscalculated.
Dragon.
Four fierce adult dragons were locked in a thick-planked field, standing on their hind legs, roaring and snorting—flames erupting from their open, fanged mouths into the dark night sky, their necks held high and their beaks fifty feet above the ground.
There are at least thirty wizards on the grounds, and every seven or eight are responsible for dealing with a fire dragon. They tugged at the chains, desperately trying to subdue the four dragons, which connected the dragon's legs to the dragon's neck, with a large thick belt.
Four-of-a-kind? In this way, Hagrid called him and Harry at this time, it turned out that it was for this matter, but in this way, it was obviously unfair to the players of the other two schools. Augustus frowned, with his pride, it was obvious that this kind of pre-match cheating would not be allowed, but after all, Hagrid was also well-intentioned, so he could not be blamed.
"It's beautiful!" Hagrid said softly.
Augustus took one last look at the four fiery dragons of different shapes before turning back.
Early the next morning, the rumor that the first project of the Triwizard Tournament was a fire dragon spread among the three schools, and I don't know who the source of the rumor is, but obviously, many people believe that this rumor is mostly true, after all, the danger of the Triwizard Tournament has always been obvious to all, in this case, even if it is really to challenge the fire dragon, I am afraid it is not just an exaggeration.
"Mr. Augustus, although the rumors may not be credible, however, there is no wind and no waves, I am afraid that this rumor is still worth scrutinizing, if it is really a fire dragon, I venture to say that I still need to be more prepared." Loki had a little worry on his face, they naturally firmly believed in Augustus's strength, but, after all, it was a dragon, to deal with a fire dragon with complete strength, even if it was an adult wizard, there were no more than ten people, it was just a delivery, the spell was just an itch for the fire dragon, dragon skin, born with strong magic resistance, it is no exaggeration to say that even if it is the three unforgivable spells, it is difficult to break through the fire dragon's innate defense system.
Lillian's crimson pupils revealed a smile, "Instead of worrying about Mr. Augustus here, you should think about the other three warriors, if even Mr. Augustus is helpless, the three of them will have nothing to do." ”
Augustus smiled slightly, "It's not a good habit to despise your opponent. In fact, about dragons, although they are born with strong magic resistance, but their weaknesses are also obvious, in the eye area, the defense is very weak, if the angle is better, a simple eye disease spell can destroy their eyesight, not to mention, in the magic resistance of arcane spells, almost all demonic beasts are completely defenseless, and against fire dragons, arcane magic is also very effective. ”
Loki nodded, "It seems that Mr. Augustus has already made a decision, so here, I wish you a victory." ”
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, it's the day of the game.
The atmosphere at school was very tense and exciting. Classes were suspended at noon, allowing the whole school to have time to go to the field below to circle the dragon.
Along Augustus' journey, countless Hogwarts students, and even students from both other schools, wished him good luck, and he walked into the Great Hall with a smile on his face.
Snape hurried towards him from the Great Hall. Many people looked at them.
"Augustus, now the warriors are going to the field below, you and I go with me, and when we are ready in the break room, we will go and finish the first project." Snape calmly said to Augustus, and to the disciples in front of him, as if he had already won the battle.
Augustus nodded politely and followed Snape towards the Forbidden Forest.
The two of them walked around the edge of the Forbidden Forest towards where the fire dragon was. As they approached the bush where they could see the grounds, a tent had been erected to block the dragons, and the entrance to the tent was facing them.
"Alright, I can only take you here, Mr. Bagman is inside, and he will tell you the rest of the steps. Then, the rest of the time is up to you. Warriors of Slytherin? Snape's dark gaze suddenly revealed a hint of ambition that Augustus had never seen before.
Augustus smiled gracefully, "As you wish, Professor." ”
