Chapter 169: Showing the Horse's Feet

"Ludo and Percy arrived at Hogwarts an hour early that night, and I received them in the headmaster's office."

"Then I asked them to wait in a room next to the auditorium, and I took the students out to greet the VIPs."

"During this time, Ludo was away for about ten minutes."

"After the VIPs entered, I sent the house-elves to guide them to their seats, and the banquet officially began."

Dumbledore gave a detailed account of Ludo's whereabouts that night, and Carnot nodded as he listened.

"He's very suspicious, but I still don't understand why he made the first round so complicated."

"I have a guess." Dumbledore reminded, "Do you remember what you saw when Scrimger was an undulating ground demon? ”

When Dumbledore said this, Kano also understood: "Fear? ”

"Chances are, if the Triwizard Tournament is so thrilling that it even kills a couple of warriors, then he's going to gather a lot of fear." Dumbledore analyzed, "In this way, as soon as Tom is resurrected, he can immediately offer these non-directed fears, so that his master can quickly recover." ”

Kano nodded, Voldemort had disappeared from the public eye for more than ten years, and although he had jumped a few times in between, he was covered up by the previous Ministry of Magic under the pretext of being an "imitator".

Except for a few who already knew that Voldemort was about to return, who would be afraid of him?

If Crouch Jr. can gather a lot of fear, it will be tantamount to a relief for Voldemort.

"Focused monitoring." Dumbledore concluded, "I'll keep an eye on my own people in the Sports Department. ”

Kano opened his mouth, but still held back the complaint in his heart.

How many dark chess pieces did you have in the Ministry of Magic?

Harry, Ron, and Hermione are in the library battling tome after tome. Kano had also told Harry about the rules yesterday afternoon, and now they were looking for available magic.

In the first grade, Chani Colemay, in the second grade, he searched the life of Voldemort, and in the third year, he sent letters around collecting the past of the marauders.

Harry was now familiar with the paperwork, and he was thinking that he would ask Moody for a note from the forbidden section.

Hermione was also extremely efficient, she found all the books she usually used for "pastime", about fighting fire dragons, and copied them into a small book.

Ron tiptoed around the shelves to get the books they needed, and shoved the used books back into their places under Mrs. Pince's stern gaze.

He also wrote a letter to a distant Weasley relative who had married to the Nordic side, asking how her in-laws slaughtered dragons.

That's right, the family is a descendant of Beowulf, lives on the Scandinavian side and has a dragon farm.

Sirius, for his part, sent Harry several Black family heirloom spells, characterized by limited power but fast spell casting, enough to delay the dragon's pursuit.

He himself was in Hogsmeade, and he was in a hurry.

The trio synthesized all the information they could find, and quickly came up with a few useful spells.

"Where are we going to practice these spells?" Ron asked.

Harry led them to a classroom filled with all sorts of oddities.

"Yesterday Kano finished talking to me about the rules and brought me here." Harry pointed to the things in the room, "These are all prepared by Professor Moody, enough for me to practice any kind of magic." ”

"Why didn't Kano just teach you the magic you needed?" Ron scratched his head and said, "Does he want his girlfriend to win the championship?" It's not like his style. ”

Hermione gave Ron a blank look: "Kano won't do this, he should want to see Harry's strength, after all, Harry will have to face the mysterious man in the future." ”

Harry nodded, "Just think of it as an assessment, I also want to know what level of my strength is." ”

The time soon came to the day of the competition, and the open space in front of the Forbidden Forest was already half-surrounded by the spectator seats, and the four fire dragons were entrenched in their nests, each with several dragon eggs and a golden egg under them.

There was an entrance passage in the middle of the auditorium, and at the entrance of the passage was a tent where the warriors waited for admission.

Sirius, with a pale face, accompanied Harry to the tent door.

"Harry, you've been weird from start to finish, and if your life is in danger, you will quit immediately, and no one will laugh at you."

Harry was nervous, but he wasn't about to back down. So he just grinned hard, said goodbye to Sirius, and got into the tent.

Kano and Gabrielle also led Fleur to the tent, and Fleur was dressed in a neat outfit today, and her long silver hair was tied in a high ponytail.

Of course, she was also uneasy, but she smiled at Gabrielle, kissed Kano, and then turned and slipped into the tent.

The trio outside the tent went to the auditorium together, and on the way, they saw Qiu Zhang tearfully accompanying Cedric to the tent.

"Karkarov, an old bastard, can come up with such a dangerous project."

Sirius glared at Karkaroff viciously in the audience, grinding his teeth like a real black dog, looking like he was about to pounce on him and bite him to death at the slightest disagreement.

"These Death Eaters deserve to die in Azkaban, and this bastard Crouch is still making a judicial deal with him, huh! Scum! ”

Kano ignored Sirius, he was simply worried about Harry.

I'm also worried about Fleur, but as a member of the school board, I planted a seed in each of the four dragon's nests yesterday.

In the event of danger, these tenacious vines will grow instantly, and in a matter of seconds, they can tie up the frenzied dragon.

Otherwise, Kano would not be able to sit still now.

The four warriors in the tent looked at each other, and Harry's lips moved twice, but he couldn't say anything.

Ludo, it should be said that maybe Ludo's guy jumped into the tent excitedly and began to talk about the rules that the four of them already knew.

Cedric had been informed by Harry, and Professor Sprout had later called Cedric over to give him a lecture.

"Okay, I think you all understand the rules of today's game." Ludo clapped his hands, "It's a little complicated, but it's going to be exciting." ”

The four of them couldn't help but glare at this guy, we're going to fight hard, this guy is still thinking about exciting things.

This time there is no need to draw dragon seeds, everyone will face four different dragons, and it is no problem to start with any of them, and it is absolutely fair in terms of difficulty.

Ludo took out four small balls, and the Warriors each took one to determine the order of appearance.

"Oh, ladies first?" Ludo looked around.

Fleur looked at the "No. 1" in the ball and smiled reluctantly.

"Okay, then Mr. Diggory is second, Mr. Krum is third, and Mr. Potter is last." Ludo announced, "Ladies Delacour, please, come with me." ”

There was a whistle outside, and Ludo walked out briskly, and Fleur took a deep breath and walked out firmly.

The remaining three pricked up their ears and listened to the sounds outside.
