106. The Ghosts Join
Qishu.com . The fastest update on the latest chapter of Time at Hogwarts!
The following week perfectly illustrates what McGoth said that night, as the seventh-year seniors of the four houses frantically challenged those who had magic cards for the sake of magic cards, or for the rewards of the finals. Harry and the twins waited for a few of them to Quidditch in the evening, and they used their lunch break to challenge them and lose their cards. And McGoth didn't know who sold him, in the face of more and more skilled seniors, he still couldn't keep his magic cards with a record of three wins, and the three magic cards he himself didn't go to any grade, one was given to Parvati, and then she lost to the Ravenclaw people in seconds, and the last one disappeared without him knowing, if it wasn't for the parchment that suddenly appeared and the name on it, he didn't know what to do, he felt that once he dared to come out at this time and say that the King of Cards Tournament would not be held, There is a good chance that he will die without a body.
Later, McGoth also contacted other makers, only to learn that among the 16 people they were responsible for making magic cards, the only one who could keep the magic cards was Kang in the sixth grade, but it was estimated that it would be difficult for him to make it to the finals.
"Hermione, it's up to you whether the junior of our house can enter the King of Cards tournament, I've inquired about the situation of the other three houses, and currently Ravenclaw has the most magic cards, a total of 18, followed by Hufflepuff, a total of 15, then our house has 11, and finally Slytherin, only 9, but I heard that they are now trying to find a way to challenge the people who hold magic cards in other houses. But I'm very surprised that there is one less one, and I don't know whose hands it is, and there is no news at all. Ron sat across from Hermione, chattering about magic cards. Hermione ignored him with a calm face, not knowing what she was thinking.
"Could it be that the magic cards of the four academies have been won by the seniors?"
"Almost, except for Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff, who each have five in the hands of wizards below the fifth grade, there is only Hermione from our house."
"I'll go, so fierce." McGoth was taken aback by the crazy seniors, just in the past few days, the lower grades are about to be wiped out?
"Well, Hermione, what do you think, do you want to participate in this King of Cards tournament?" Looking at Hermione, who was silent, McGoth was also a little puzzled.
"No, is Hermione going to play in the King of Cards?" Ron looked at the quiet little witch eating in surprise.
Hermione didn't give them a few answers to the question of the King of Cards game from beginning to end, either not speaking, or glaring impatiently, and finally put down the dishes and left.
"Okay, don't ask, I guess she hasn't thought about it yet, and she decided to play because Parvati agreed to her terms, and it's probably just a casual play. But now that she is so mixed up by the senior grades, she is the only one left in the lower grades, and it is a little difficult for her to give up. McGoth shook his head, to be honest, he could have imagined that the senior would be interested in the rewards of the King of Cards, but he never expected that their interest would be so great, and suddenly there was a Hermione, if she lost when the senior broke in, not only did she not lose, but she also became the only junior holder of their house, she was interested in this, but Hermione has always been resistant to magic cards.
Thinking of this, he didn't have the heart to talk to the two little kids here, and caught up with Hermione to probe her attitude, and if she really didn't want to, he had to think of a way.
As a result, after asking Lavender in the break room, he found out that Hermione hadn't returned to the break room, and McGoth thought for less than three seconds before guessing that she should have gone to the library, and it just so happened that he remembered the dozens of books that were given to Mrs. Pince for Christmas and the popular love ethics and sadistic TV series that would be made in the next few years, and it was time to see the effect of those books.
When I got to the library, I found that there were quite a lot of people.,There's no one he imagined to go to the lounge to play wizards.,But it's understandable.,The reward is also more attractive to the seniors.,Especially the seventh-grade seniors who are leaving school this year.,Since the cards of the little wizards have been taken away.,It's not interesting to play that in the lounge stupidly.。
Although the library was large, Hermione's appearance was still very conspicuous, and the thick brown hair betrayed her in an instant, and it was rare to look around that Mrs. Pince was on the road, and she didn't know if those gifts could 'impress' her, but he didn't care, even if she was not satisfied with the gifts, at most she would be kicked out.
McGoth sat down across from Hermione, who glanced at him and returned her gaze to the large, thick book. He didn't bother her, he casually pulled out a copy of the modern history of magic from a stack of books next to her and read it silently. Except for the sound of turning the page, none of them spoke, quietly rippling in the ocean of knowledge.
"Magos." After some time, Hermione was the first to break the silence. Magos looked up and waited silently for her next.
"I don't want to go to the King of Cards."
"Then don't go." McGoth smiled.
"But ......"
Seeing Hermione biting her lip and looking tangled, McGoth wanted to laugh.
"What do you think, you are you, they are them, why do you care what they think, Ron's words are just talking, don't take this seriously, it's just a game, if you want to participate, you can participate, if you don't want to participate, then don't participate, what a big deal." He paused, "Besides, I don't know them well anyway." Moreover, who said that if you win, the seniors will never lose to the little wizard again......"
Hermione's tangled expression disappeared as she listened, smiled happily, and lowered her head to continue reading the book.
"Don't look at it, go back to the break room and give me the cards first." With that, he closed the large book in front of Hermione. Hermione grimaced, got up and put the book back on the shelf.
"By the way, why haven't I seen Mrs. Pins all the time, this is really rare, she didn't come out to guard against you like a thief?" Out of the library, Magos asked curiously.
"She seems to be busy, and when I came, she told me to pay attention to the books and I don't know where to go." Hermione shook her head to indicate that she didn't know. McGoth touched his chin that hadn't grown hair yet, thinking a little, and it seemed that maybe his gift had done a trick.
Back in the common room, Ron and the others showed pity after hearing that Hermione was going to lose the card to McGoss, and the angry McGoth kicked him alone, which was looking down on him in front of him.
"Wait and see me make it to the King of Cards." The grandeur of Magos was booed by them in unison, and his face was full of disdain.
"If Hermione says that, we'll believe it, but you're ......," Parvati's disgusted look said it all. Everyone else nodded approvingly.
After their deliberate publicity, the fact that Magos got Hermione's magic card basically knew about the King of Cards, but unexpectedly the person who came over at noon the next day to take his magic card was not a wizard from the academy, but a group of ghosts. McGoth could not have imagined that the news of the King of Cards tournament had touched these ghosts, who were usually inconspicuous.
When the ghosts drifted into the Gryffindor first-year common room, the temperature inside plummeted by several degrees. Magos, the others looked dumbfounded at the group of ghosts floating in front of them.
After inquiry, I learned that this group of ghosts is also the idea of the portrait in the champion reward, although this group of old fritters has been immortal, but the heart of the limelight still exists, and the reward of this King of Cards tournament is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity in their opinion.
Don't say anything, since there are 'people' who come to challenge, McGoth will fight, and as a result, the level of this group of ghosts who float over with confidence is not even as good as that of the first-year wizards.
McGoth was still a little speculative about being a wizard, and these ghosts didn't know how many years they had existed, and it would be a shame if they lost the first game. As a result he thought too much about the Ravenclaw ghost Helena. Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff's ghost, the fat monk, two Muggles who were supposed to join forces, fought to the death in the amazed eyes of all the little wizards, and McGoth played a few single cards, and these two magical ghosts threw away all the big cards in their hands, and McGoth won the game without much effort.
In the second game, after some negotiations, the ghosts of Gryffindor were dispatched, and Nicol, who was almost dead, and a Ravenclaw ghost that McGoth didn't know. This time, they learned to be obedient, knowing that they couldn't fight to the death by their own people, and were ready to work together to win this magic card first. However, the cards were too good to be helped, and under a deck of cards from McGoth's super-smooth, the two ghosts were unwilling to lose.
A group of ghosts thought they could easily get a magic card, but they didn't expect a first-year wizard to be able to solve them easily, and they were stupidly overwhelmed, and in the end, Helena said that she still joined forces with the fat friar. It's just that this group of ghosts who have never touched this game are McGoss's opponents, and in McGoss's words, this is a group of experience-givers. With their selfless help, Magos easily managed to get five kills in a row.
The ghosts quickly depressed when they saw that they couldn't play McGoss, and the temperature in the lounge was lower, and it was almost like reliving the cold winter, Harry and they quickly took out a few decks of playing cards and gave them them, telling them that they could improve as long as they played more. The ghosts drifted away with a few decks of cards.
It was only after the ghosts left that the little wizards in the lounge let out a sigh, and then they all ran away from the public rest where the temperature was close to freezing.
"They're all ghosts, why are they still interested in this?" Harry Ron and they couldn't figure out why these ghosts were suddenly interested in the games they had organized.
"Maybe for a while. When they lose a few more times, I guess they won't be interested. ”
