Chapter 296: A Proof of Courage

Neville had a lukewarm audience, the young wizards had been in the audience for a day, and they just wanted to hurry up and get back to the castle for a warm and hearty dinner.

No one was optimistic about Neville, and George and Fred made a bet that Neville would be eaten by a dragon, and many of them bought, all of whom were Gryffindor students.

The Knicks wanted to buy Neville to win, but the twins told the Knicks that there was no such option and that it was impossible.

on the field.

Neville stood blankly at the entrance, and when he heard the dragon's roar, he fell to the ground in fright.

The audience laughed, and the Knicks heard someone shouting. "Get up, it's impossible to win by playing dead!"

Tifa said unhappily, "Neville is really not angry, can't he come up and use the Flying Charm and win the game cleanly with his armor?"

And that group of people, they don't necessarily perform better than Neville when they go up, how dare they mock Neville."

Neville lay on his stomach for a moment, looking up cautiously when he saw that the dragon was trapped in the distance, and he couldn't hurt him before he stood up and drew his wand tremblingly.

The audience fell silent and looked at Neville. They wanted to know what kind of spell Neville would use.

It's a simple but ingenious spell like Victor Krum. Or like Draco Malfoy, conquer dragons with ancient and powerful spells.

Neville's first flown spell failed, in stark contrast to Harry's success even in his panic.

The crowd in the audience speculated about what Neville's spell was, some thought it was another ancient spell that could kill dragons in one go, and some suggested that it was a flying spell, but it was overturned, how could such a simple spell fail.

The only thing that everyone could agree on was that Neville had definitely failed in casting the spell he had just cast.

Sweating profusely after Neville's failed spell, he knew that if he didn't summon his armor, he would be eaten by the dragon.

Nervous, the second cast also failed.

However, this spell was not a complete failure, Neville did call something, but not the armor that the Knicks were very bad at, but the Sorting Hat.

Neville was a little devastated at the sight of the Sorting Hat next to him, and he turned his head to look at the audience, trying to find Knicks to see if he had actually arrived with armor.

But at such a distance, with a sea of people and Hogwarts students wearing uniforms, it was difficult to find the Knicks.

Nobody could be found, and Neville was even more discouraged.

He thought of giving up, and before the game started, the Knicks told him that they weren't for the championship, there was no need to work hard, and the most important thing was to survive. You can't do anything, and it's okay to give up the game.

He hesitated: Do you want to quit the game now? However, the family was very happy about his participation in the Triwizard Tournament, and from the letters sent by his grandmother, Neville could feel that his grandmother, who had always been serious, was very happy, and praised him for not being ashamed and having the same courage as his parents.

If you give up the competition without trying, grandma will be disappointed.

Neville's assignment to Gryffindor shows that he is not lacking in courage.

At the end of the battle, it was learned that Harry was dead, and everyone lost their fighting spirit. Neville, a poor student who was not good at studying and was always ridiculed, stepped forward and fired a cannon at Voldemort, awakening the resistance of the others.

Neville has the courage to be in such a desperate situation, and he will not back down from the current danger.

Bursting with confidence, Neville noticed the anomaly in his hat and drew the Gryffindor sword.

The Knicks were surprised in the stands. Not only him, but the professors were equally surprised, as were some of the senior Gryffindor students.

They all know the legend of the Gryffindor sword, and many people have seen it, it is in the headmaster's office, but there are almost no people who draw this sword in times of crisis.

Neville did it, and those who knew the legend were jealous.

He's not Harry, he's born with an aura, and no one will be jealous if he can draw a sword. That's a trait he was born with, and if he can't draw his sword, how can he defeat the Dark Lord!

Neville is a poor student, he doesn't study well, he can't fight, and he will make people jealous when he draws his sword. I'm better than you in every way, why can't I pull out

Sword, but you can!

With the sword in hand, Neville gained a little confidence, and he cast the spell again, this time successfully. The armor beside the Knicks flew to Neville's.

Neville looked in the direction the armor was flying in and saw that Nicks and Tifa were waving at him, and he felt more confident. Clumsily put on his armor on the spot, took his shield, and held the Gryffindor sword in his hand, slowly approaching the dragon.

Seeing Neville's outfit, the little wizards became excited, this is going to fight the dragon hand-to-hand!

On the other hand, the professors in the stands were nervous, afraid that Neville would be killed by the dragon.

The dragon spewed a breath of fire at Neville approaching.

Everyone was nervous.

He stopped. Raise your shield to block the flames. One could see the flames being separated from the middle by Neville. Fortunately, this dragon was not the one that Seamus had dealt with, otherwise the flames would have rolled back after filling half of the field, and Neville would have been uncomfortable.

After this breath of flame, the normal iron armor is finished. The flame will heat up the armor, and the person inside will be burned in a large area, and if the flame temperature is high enough, and the armor is too thin, it may even roast the person directly.

Neville's armor is made from a conch shell to keep out heat.

The flames vanished, and Neville peeked out from behind his shield to look at the dragon.

The dragon was watching him, too. The two looked at each other in the air. The cheers in the audience woke them up, and people were shocked that Neville was okay, although the dragon spewed out just ordinary flames, and many spells could be dispelled, but Neville didn't rely on spells, just armor blocked the flames, which was still shocking.

Neville took a tentative step forward.

The dragon spat out the flames again, and this time Neville slowly moved near the dragon against the flames.

His full attention was on the golden egg at the dragon's feet, and all he had to do was take the golden egg, completely forgetting that the dragon could bite, claw, and wag its tail in addition to breathing fire.

The fire-breathing dragon clawed Neville with a claw, knocking his shield off and knocking him away.

The audience exclaimed.

The professors in the stands tried to save people, but Dumbledore stopped them and told them to watch quietly.

Neville in the field flew a distance and rolled a few laps, he was not injured, the tail snail shell has a certain impact resistance, otherwise every time the explosion advances, the tail snail will be injured, and if they don't resist the impact, they will blow themselves up.

Neville got up, saw the dragon spewing flames again, and immediately grabbed his shield. Thanks to Knicks in his heart, if he hadn't tied his shield to his armor, he would have been finished.

After blocking the flames, he found that the sword was missing.

When the fire was over, Neville looked around and saw the sword at the dragon's feet, flickering and flickering, before finally vanishing.

He was a little stunned, and he didn't understand why a good sword was gone.

After thinking about it, Neville gave up searching, and the task was to get the golden egg, and it was the same with or without weapons.
