363. Fleur Delacour and the Welsh Green Dragon

Leo Poliaco slammed open the stone door behind him with the golden egg in his arms, and then fainted with a magnificent body full of flames. And not far in front of him was an enraged terrifying fire dragon.

At this time, the spells of the members of the referee also followed, and it was Dumbledore who struck first, and one of his spells directly hit the Swedish short-nosed dragon that was about to turn around and bite Poliaco, although the Swedish short-nosed dragon's magic resistance was not weak, but Dumbledore, who had the cooperation of the Elder's wand, still used only one spell to knock it out directly. (Usually it would take six or seven adult wizards to cast five or six stun spells at the same time to work on the dragon, and it would be impossible to take down the dragon so cleanly.) )

Then came Madame Maxim, the spell in her hand was at least seventeen feet long, and a pale green light instantly flew to the fallen Poliaco, and the flames left by the fire dragon slowly dissipated, leaving a pitch-black figure in place.

There was a burst of chickens and dogs jumping at the scene, and all the staff of the Ministry of Magic rushed into the venue, and the two hosts on the scene also continued to broadcast the progress of the situation.

After a long time, Mrs. Diggory appears in the center of the main screen.

"Our warrior, Mr. Leo Poliaco, is out of danger after being treated by the medical staff of St. Mungo's Hospital for Magic and Magic, and it is believed that he will be able to return to us soon. ”

Mr. Bagman took over and said: "Our game will continue, now we ask the on-site staff to clear the field and prepare for the next match, and the referee will give a rating on the performance of Mr. Leo Poliaco." The maximum score for each person must not exceed 10 points, so please be prepared for the judges. ”

"Durmstrang's champion Leo Poliako was actually remarkable in the first event, his pre-set tactics were excellent, it was a clever idea, and if all went well, it would be an impeccable performance. Unfortunately, however, there were some errors in the execution of the tactics. Mrs. Diggory explained.

"Poliaco's performance was actually good overall, and his early performance was very impressive, which would have made the judges expect a lot from him, but the Dermstrang students in the audience later interfered with the Dragon's judgment, and the judges deducted points at their discretion. In the end, Poliacco's severe injuries before completing the mission would have given him a significant discount on the project. However, given that he can still hold on to the golden egg at the last moment, I believe that the judges will still add points as appropriate. Mr. Bagman analyzed rationally.

The main screen then shifts to the referee's bench, where the other four referees are seated in their raised golden chairs.

The first judge to score was Madame Maxime, who raised her wand, which was almost the same length as the short sword in the hand of a Chinese wizard, above her head, and a long cloud of silver ribbon-like smoke erupted from the wand, twisting in mid-air to form a large 7.

In the audience, the students gave a burst of applause.

"It seems that Madame Maxime gave a high score, which she must have given due to Leo Poliaco's last performance. Mrs. Diggory explained.

Next up was the Ministry of Magic official, Mr. Barty Crouch, who spewed a 5 into the air. This is a very fair score. The audience responded with a round of applause.

Then there was Dumbledore, who sat in the centre, and he also gave a five.

Later, Karkaroff gave an 8 points, and of course everyone could see that this guy was favoring the warriors of his school, which made Field unconsciously think that this guy was very similar to Snape at this point.

"This guy is not afraid of losing face in front of wizards all over the world. Gore muttered in a low voice.

In the end, Mr. Bagman gave a compromise of 6 points.

Leo Poliaco's rating has been completed, and the Swedish short-nosed dragon has been cleared out of the field below, and the second fire dragon is ready.

"The second game is about to begin, with the Warriors from Beauxbatons, Fleur Delacour, taking on the Welsh Green Dragons. Mrs. Diggory went on to explain the situation of the contestants.

"Our first female warrior, Miss Fleur Delacour, is seventeen years and six months old and in the seventh year at Beauxbatons School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. The fire dragon she played against was a Welsh green dragon, and I believe many British wizards at the scene knew about this fire dragon very well, after all, the famous Ilflarkom incident was told to their children by many parents as a story. ”

PS. The Ilforcombe Incident: Occurred in 1932 when a mischievous Welsh green dragon lunged down on a crowded beach filled with Muggles sunbathing. Luckily, a family of wizards was on vacation there, and their bravery prevented the casualties (and the family was subsequently given the title of First Class Wizards of the Order of Merlin) - they immediately cast the largest Oblivion Charm of the century on the inhabitants of Ilfolcombe, and narrowly avoided the catastrophe.

According to information provided by the staff of the Romanian Wild Dragon Sanctuary, this Welsh green dragon weighs 3.15 tons, is 21 feet long, and spreads its wings up to 25 feet. ”

By the time Mrs. Diggory had finished, Bagman announced the start of the game.

"No. 3, a close-up of our beautiful warriors. Five-second close-up. Gore commanded.

The main screen begins to show the figure of Fleur, with a tight face, beautiful long bright silver hair, and a beautiful skirt robe with Beauxbatons, outlining the image of a young and beautiful girl.

Fleur's face was a little solemn, but when he stepped out of the gap in the fence, his steps were still firm.

"Our first female warrior, Miss Fleur Delacour, is a very special presence among all the warriors. According to the information we have obtained, Miss Delacour is a quarter of her grandmother, and her grandmother is a baby. Well, let's look forward to a great performance from our 'Flowers of the Court'.

PS: "Hibiscus's name is Fleur Delacour", which means "floer of the court"

In the footage

On the field, Fleur took a deep breath and flashed behind a rock in one step, the energy not to let the fire dragon find out. But when she was pressed against the rock, she suddenly shivered.

"The cold weather in November in the north of England seemed to have had some effect on Miss Delacour's performance, and Beauxbatons' robes were too light. Mr. Bagman explained.

Fleur froze, and took out her wand and cast a warming charm on herself. Then he cautiously poked out half his head to observe his opponent, the twenty-one-foot-long Welsh green dragon.

At this time, at the other end of the playing field, the Welsh green dragon was looking around vigilantly, and its scales were green all over its body. It's just that some places are darker and some are lighter. If you are now in the middle of the mountains and forests, mixed with dense weeds, then it is really difficult for everyone to distinguish the location of the green dragon, which is the protective color of the Welsh green dragon.

Next to the Welsh green dragon is the shallow pit where the dragon eggs are kept, about five or six earthy brown dragon eggs with green spots on them are scattered inside, and the golden egg in the middle is shining golden, lying quietly in the middle.

"In terms of the environment, it's good for Hibiscus, and the protective colour of the Welsh Green Dragon isn't very useful for a playing field full of rock and sand. Mr. Bagman explained.

"Indeed, the most important thing Fleur needs to do now is to lure the fire dragon away from those dragon eggs first. Let's see what she does. Mrs. Diggory said.

At this point, Fleur withdrew her gaze, then turned to a small rock in the corner, and she raised her wand and gently chanted a spell, which twisted for a moment and then turned into a black and white sheep.

"Oh—beautiful Transfiguration Charm......." Mr. Bagman was about to praise Fleur's spell, but abruptly stopped.

In the field, the sheep conjured by Hibiscus was slowly walking in the direction of the green dragon with mechanical steps.

There were bursts of laughter from the audience, and Fleur's pretty face flushed in the camera.

It's an imperfect Transfiguration Charm, but it's good enough to deal with the situation at hand. The sheep slowly approached the fire dragon, and the originally vigilant fire dragon was attracted by this strange sheep, and it tilted its head to carefully look at the approaching sheep, a little eager to try.

"Clever decision, sheep has always come first in the Welsh Green Dragon's favourite recipe, and it seems that our warriors have accurately captured the Welsh Green Dragon's weakness. Mrs. Diggory praised.

The little sheep slowly walked to a stop thirty feet away from the dragon, and then wandered back and forth, not further.

As the sheep wandered, the green dragon also shook its head to observe the sheep, and after looking for a long time, it found that the sheep had no idea of moving forward, and it slowly leaned down and put its head close to the ground.

"Oh, the green dragon is ready to attack—"

Seeing the green dragon make an attacking action, Fleur hurriedly commanded the sheep to turn around, spread its legs, and began to run away, don't look at the sheep that the sheep has been walking mechanically before, but it is running fast, which makes the green dragon obviously flustered.

Fleur is very smart, and she directs the sheep to scurry between the rocks in a zigzag, which seriously affects the green dragon's judgment. As mentioned earlier, the Welsh Green Dragon is very cautious, and it knows that its pounce is very powerful, and in such a strange field, a strong pounce is likely to cause damage to itself, so it must be careful to deal with it.

After a moment of careful observation, the green dragon still did not resist the temptation of the food, and it sprang to its feet, spreading its wings and pounced on the sheep.

The Welsh green dragon, which was twenty-five feet wide with its wings outstretched, pounced on the sheep no matter how much it dodged. The green dragon pressed it to the ground with only one blow, and the sheep that was pressed to the ground still mechanically pulled its legs, which made the green dragon a little stunned, and at the same time made the students in the stands burst into laughter.

Taking advantage of the time when the green dragon was stunned, Fleur quickly sprang out from behind the rocks and flew towards the shallow pit where the golden eggs were placed.

On the other side, the green dragon opened its long beak, ready to enjoy the food in front of it, but at this moment, the sheep, which was still pulling its legs, slowly stopped moving, and little by little turned into a gray rock.

The green dragon froze visibly, then pulled the stone twice with its front paws, and slowly turned its head to look in the direction of the dragon egg.

On the playing field, everyone held their breath, and only Fleur's wheezing and footsteps could be heard clearly.

Fleur ran fast, constantly weaving through the messy rocks. Suddenly, the atmosphere of the scene suddenly quieted down, and she subconsciously turned her head to look back.

Almost as if they were in their hearts, the warrior and the fire dragon turned their heads at the same time, and Fleur's beautiful blue eyes met the equally beautiful green vertical pupils of the Welsh green dragon.

Fleur's body froze for a moment, and then continued to accelerate violently, completely ignoring whether she made too much noise.

In fact, by nature, the Welsh green dragon is not a short-tempered dragon breed, and unless provoked, they generally avoid humans.

And now Fleur's rush towards the dragon egg naturally angered the originally cautious Welsh green dragon.

The green dragon craned its neck and opened its mouth, letting out its own dragon groan for the first time.

"Uh-" A loud, yin and yang voice came out of its mouth, like a soprano singing voice, and everyone present trembled and got goosebumps.

Fleur's full run was also paused, and she turned around to see the green dragon that had risen up preparing to leap upwards and make a pounce motion. At this moment, Fleur almost instinctively raised her wand and sent a colorful light with a beautiful halo towards the green dragon's head.

Fleur's spell hit the green dragon's huge head accurately, and the green dragon, which was about to jump, shook violently, and then staggered and began to sway from side to side, as if it could fall asleep at any time.

"Pretty Charm Charm - I don't think it will last long, the dragons used in this tournament are all females, and our warriors should take advantage of this opportunity-" Diggory reminded.

After releasing the spell, Fleur did not stop at all, she immediately turned around and ran in the direction of the dragon egg.

Sure enough, as Lady Diggory had said, the Welsh Green Dragon only shook its head a few times, and then came to its senses again. At this time, Fleur had already run to the middle of the dragon eggs, ready to catch the golden egg.

It was too late to pounce, and to do so would destroy all the dragon eggs, the angry Welsh green dragon's long neck leaned forward sharply, and then its slender upper and lower jaws suddenly opened, and a beautiful green dragon breath squirted towards Fleur.

At this time, Fleur had already obtained the golden egg and was running towards the stone gate behind her, when she turned around and saw the green fire rushing towards her in the distance.

"Oh-" "No-" Just when everyone thought that what happened to Leo Poliaco would be repeated, the dragon's breath grew smaller, and at last only a string of flames burned Fleur's dress.

All the spectators breathed a sigh of relief, but Fleur on the field jumped to her feet and screamed, she hurriedly used her wand to conjure water to extinguish the flames, and then began to stroke her beautiful silver hair as she ran towards the stone gate, for which she even threw away the golden egg in her hand.
