Chapter 148: The Triwizard Tournament Begins

Happy days always pass quickly, and time passes little by little in the training where frolicism is better than fighting.

The three-hour combat training time passed in a blink of an eye, and the relationship between Harry and Zhang Qiu had made great progress in the battle. Ron also stepped out of the shadows and re-energized himself on the training ground.

Only Hermione, whose cultivation is still in the middle of the innate stage, makes it a pity.

However, the days ahead are still long, and there are many opportunities for breakthroughs, Hermione also recovered her nature after being depressed for a period of time and continued to move forward on the road of "Xueba".

In the blink of an eye, on October 30, 94, the team of the Bulgarian Durmstrang School of Witchcraft and Wizardry led by Igor Karkaroff and the student representatives of the French Beauxbatons School of Witchcraft and Wizardry led by Olim Maxim also came to Hogwarts as scheduled, and were welcomed by all Hogwarts teachers and students, including Headmaster Dumbledore and Vice Principal Qin Shao.

The next day, the Goblet of Fire selected the Warriors for the Triwizard Tournament: Victor Klum of Durmstran, Fleur Delacour of Beauxbatons, and Cedric Diggory of Hogwarts. Harry was caught in the middle of a conspiracy, and unfortunately was among them.

This tournament also became the first tournament in the history of the Triwizard Tournament to be attended by four warriors, so it attracted the attention of the world!

The best reporter of the Daily Prophet, Rita Skeeter, heard the news.

This female journalist, who is famous for publishing reports from time to time, is known for her keen insight, beautiful writing, and sharp brushstrokes, which make people hate but not love, but are helpless.

This time her target was Harry, and of course the people around Harry. For example, Hermione and Ron in the Iron Triangle, Dean McGonagall, and Headmaster Dumbledore.

It's a lot of material, and if you add her spices, it will be one of the best stories of the year.

She is looking forward to this!

Of course, during the interview, she also ran to Qin Shao's residence from time to time, hoping to get sporadic information about the most mysterious person in history, after all, it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, even if she makes up a good report, there is no factual basis for the report, and the false feeling cannot be concealed!

She had a hunch that as long as she could get Qin Shao's first-hand information, the honor of the greatest journalist of this century would definitely fall on her head!

Maybe even the title of the greatest writer can be easily obtained!

It's just that the difficulty of this interview is really high! She's been here for almost a month, but she hasn't even entered the door!

Think about the people she interviewed, which one of them wasn't trembling and flattering? In the poor is also expressionless to accept her inquiry interview! But when she came to Qin Shao, she was turned away, and she was not even allowed to see her, which is really hateful!

"If you can't fight you, the old lady will ruin you!"

After another round of failure, Rita dropped a beloved shorthand pen in the temporary accommodation assigned to Hogwarts, and said resentfully.

But when she thought of Qin Shao's status, she was like a deflated balloon, and her resentful expression disappeared in an instant, leaving behind a deep powerlessness.

Qin Shao's prestige in the wizarding world is several times higher than that of Dumbledore, the great white wizard, even if it is compared to Merlin, it is only slightly inferior! How could she, a little reporter, be able to bring it down?

When the time comes, if people don't bring it down, don't say it, and then take their lives, it won't be worth it!

That group of crazy divine guards had already killed dozens of wizards who were disrespectful to Qin Shao, and some of them were reported by her. Those wizards died so miserably that they made people cry when they saw them, and only a skeleton was left with that knife, and she didn't want to be one of them!

"Today is November 23rd, and the first event of the Triwizard Tournament will start tomorrow, so I'll report on the tournament! What is the greatest journalist of the century, the old lady doesn't care! Hmph, don't care at all! ”

Rita said reluctantly, unaware that she had been betrayed by her expression.

So, the sun on the 24th is coming in the blink of an eye!

Triwizard Tournament First Event: Kill a 200-year-old dragon without the help of any magic or magic items other than flying methods such as levitation charms and broomsticks!

The winner advances to the next round, and the loser is eliminated!

In order to ensure the absolute fairness of the competition, its dragon species belonged to the same species - Swedish short-nosed dragon, and was later personally inspected by Vice President Qin Shao to confirm that it had the same combat power before it was put into the venue.

At eight o'clock in the morning, the first competition officially began in the Forbidden Forest Training Ground built by Qin Shao himself!

For the needs of the game, the originally empty actual combat training ground was divided into five parts, one for the east, west, one for the north and the south, and the center was used as a viewing platform and a rest ground for the warriors.

Harry and his entourage, dressed in tight-fitting costumes, entered the four dragon's nests from the central auditorium from the east, west, south, and north directions.

Dragons are creatures that exist in many worlds because of their strength. In the world of Harry Potter, although the dragons have a low status and are mostly kept in captivity by people, they are also praised as "invincible creatures" by wizards because of their physical fitness and huge size much higher than wizards!

Of course, the invincibility here is on the premise that wizards don't use magic. If dragons were truly invincible, they wouldn't be kept like animals!

However, this sentence has become history in the current wizarding world. As the first game of the Triwizard Tournament, the word "Dragon Slaying" was put on the bright side as a prop for the project!

As is customary in traditional matches, the first match is often not too difficult, and the same is true for Triwizard Tournaments.

Dragons have a long lifespan, generally surviving for more than five hundred years in the absence of disease. And the two-hundred-year-old dragon is just a teenager in the dragon clan, and according to the world rules of the world that the older he is, the stronger the strength, it is equivalent to the strength of a wizard in his forties.

A wizard in his forties has accumulated mana that is roughly equivalent to the early to mid-stage Jindan. However, counting the actual attack power of the magic of the Harry Potter world, it is a rule that the attack power of its realm is weaker than the attack power of its realm, and the attack power of a hundred-year-old dragon is probably in the early to middle innate period, and the defense power is probably in the late innate stage.

The "Immortality" exercise has been circulating in the wizarding world for more than two years, and most of the old wizards who have exhausted their potential have also cultivated to the acquired to the innate bottleneck. And the young wizards with less potential loss, except for those who can't endure hardship, almost all of the rest have broken through the innate nature.

As the leaders of the three magic schools, Cedric and Harry have the advantage of being close to the water, and their cultivation is in the late stage of congenital development. And although Fleur and Wickdor are not as good as Cedric and Harry, they also have the realm of the middle of the innate stage!

Against a guy like the Swedish short-nosed dragon who even has muscles in his head, even Hibiscus, who has the weakest martial arts cultivation among the four, can win the battle, let alone Harry and the others!

Half an hour later, a panting Fleur leaped from the fallen short-nosed Dragon 2 and waved her bloodied fist into the sky, announcing victory in the first event of the Triwizard Tournament.

At the same time, it also declares that mankind has once again defeated the once unattainable power with its own strength!

And in the invisible place, a conspiracy covering the entire wizarding world is quietly unfolding!

……

In an ordinary house, a small man stooped down beside the main seat, and three people sat on each side of the long table.

One of them had platinum blonde hair, which was very good-looking. There was a woman with curly hair, dressed in black, slightly chubby, and hysterical. And also......

Above the throne, a person was hidden in a wide black robe, unable to see his face or figure, but a voice that could not distinguish between men and women came from it: "Lucius, how is the plan going?" ”

"Back to the messenger, the Triwizard Tournament is going on normally, Harry Potter has successfully advanced, Dumbledore is in a crisis of deposition, and Vice Principal Qin Shao is temporarily acting as Dumbledore's responsibility, and Target Zero has not made any moves."

"Very well, Dumbledore is the biggest threat to my lord, you have a high position in the Ministry of Magic and the school board, you must do whatever it takes to remove Dumbledore from the headmaster's position, and if necessary, activate the hidden pawn!"

Lucius bowed his head and commanded: "Yes, messenger!" ”

"Bellatrice, Sirius hasn't been found?"

The curly-haired woman got up: "Messenger, Sirius has not returned to the family's former home. The Order of the Phoenix headquarters is enchanted and cannot be entered if you are not a member of the Order of the Phoenix. I watched outside for seven days, and I didn't find any sign of Sirius, but I did find Snape and Dumbledore entering together! ”

"Snape has always been a shadow boy that Dumbledore has placed with my master, and going in and out of the Order of the Phoenix headquarters with Dumbledore is nothing. You're going to intensify your search for Sirius, who is hiding in the shadows and has two-thirds of the Lestrange family's power, and is a danger to us. As his sister, you are one of the people who know him best, and the burden of capturing him should be in your hands, and you must not let my lord's plan for return be affected in the slightest! ”

Bellatrice licked her lower lip and said coldly, "Swear to defend the return of my lord!" ”

……

The meeting lasted for two hours before it finally ended, and immediately after the meeting, the crowd began to rise, and at last only the messenger sitting on the throne and the star pettigrew standing beside the throne.

At this time, a "hissing" sound came from outside the door, and then a slender shadow flashed, and a python appeared on the long table at some point, and the cold snake pupils stared at the messenger motionlessly.

"Nagini, I haven't seen you for so many years, have you even forgotten my breath!?"

The humanized eyes of the python Nagini flickered with doubts, and after about ten minutes, it seemed to remember something, and the doubts in the pupils were gone, replaced by the joy of reunion after a long absence.

"Hiss, hiss!"

"Come back, my friend! He is me, I am him! ”

The black-robed man stood up, his figure a head taller than Pettigrew!

"Congratulations, my lord, another help!" Pettigrew shouted.

"My lord, my warrior master! Well, yes, that's good! ”

The voice of the black-robed man came out, but this time it was a beautiful male voice. As the voice came out, a water-colored ripple quickly emerged, circulating above its black robe, and then spreading down the void to the scale armor of the python Nagini.

When the water waves completely covered the surface, there was a soft sound, and one person and one snake disappeared in an instant!

In the empty room, only Pettigrew was left, and there was a helpless wry smile.

"Me too, I have no choice but to do it!"
