Chapter 298: Gluttony
The little wizards were crazy, and today's game was exciting, except for the time when Malfoy practiced spells.
They cheered for Neville's feat, Slay the Dragon, the first few warriors used skill to complete the task, only Neville had a dragon in front of him and slaughtered it to complete the task.
However, Neville's score is not very high, ranking in the ranks, because although the method he uses meets the requirements of the project "brave", he does not use a charm, but kills the dragon like a warrior.
The process is beautiful and makes people's blood boil. But there is no way to get a high score. By the way, Harry was only above Neville, and at the bottom was Malfoy.
The Knicks left the audience with Tifa and Luna. Neville was found at the exit, his armor had been removed, and his original school uniform was covered in blood. Madam Pomfrey was potioning him.
"Neville, are you alright?" Nicks asked.
Neville turned his head to see the Knicks and the group, and said happily, "Did you see that? I succeeded, I really succeeded!!"
"Yes, yes, you made it! But aren't we going to admit defeat when we're negotiating? Why did you rush up and slay the dragon?" Nicks asked.
"Well, I don't want to disappoint Grandma, and I don't want your preparations to be useless. Thinking about admitting defeat after a few fights, I didn't expect to be able to slay the dragon." Neville was puzzled, shouldn't the friends congratulate him on completing the task? Why question him?
Knicks sighed, "Neville, completing the first project means continuing to do it, the first project is close to survival, what are you going to do with the second project?"
Neville was stunned, thinking about making his family proud of him and repaying the trust of the Knicks, not thinking about what success would be. Recalling the process of slaying the dragon, Neville shuddered, what next? Will the second project kill him, is it too late to quit now?
Neville's expression contorted, and he cried, "Nyx, what to do? I don't want to continue."
Pomfrey poured Neville another cup of potion, and Neville stopped crying and fell asleep. Madam Pomfrey turned to Nyx and said, "Alright, he's got an internal injury and needs to recuperate for a few days, so let's talk about what you want to discuss when he's better."
Nicks sighed as he watched Neville being taken away by Madam Pomfrey.
Tifa said worriedly, "Brother, Neville won't die, will he?"
"No, don't worry."
Reassuring his sister, the Knicks saw Snape emerge from the arena with the scales made of the whelk shell in his hand.
He said, "Professor, I made that armor, can you give it back to me?"
"I can't." Snape's answer was resolute, non-stop, and there was no intention of returning things to the Knicks.
Behind him, the fake Moody said, "Don't worry, it's the referees who want to see it and will give it back to you." After saying that, he took out the flask and took a sip.
The Knicks smirked, thinking to himself, it doesn't matter if the referees look at it, I'm afraid that if you're interested and send it to Voldemort, it will be a big deal.
"Got it, Professor."
That's when some wizards come out with dragons that Neville had slain. The Knicks recognized them as the staff who had changed dragons several times.
With the cooperation of several people, the dragon's corpse slowly floated out of the arena. The dragon corpse had a huge wound in its neck, and the dragon's blood kept flowing out, dripping on the ground and making a rattle, and then it merged into pieces and ignited a flame.
The two wizards in the back appeared more relaxed, carrying severed dragon claws and dragon tails.
Knicks' eyes lit up. The whole dragon may not be able to be bought, but the dragon claws and tail should be fine.
The problem is that he doesn't know the staff. If you want to buy dragon claws and dragon tails, you need to find a middleman, and the anxious Knicks look at Snape and fake Moody, who haven't gone far yet.
Snape didn't want the student to drink potions, and he would definitely not help him, so he had to find a fake Moody.
Barty Crouch Jr. should be able to help, and it is estimated that he will borrow the Knicks to buy dragon entrainment and send the materials to Voldemort.
Nicks shouted in a heartbeat, "Professor Moody, can you do me a favor?"
Hear the Knicks
Shouting fake Moody and Snape stopped at the same time.
"What's the matter?" Fake Moody's tone is gentle, and he tries to be amiable.
The Knicks wondered in his heart, did Barty Crouch Jr. forget Moody's character? Moody's words and deeds should be vigilant and should not be amiable.
Seeing that the staff was about to leave, the Knicks didn't care about the fake Moody's personality, and said quickly, "Professor, I want to buy some materials for the dragon. Is there anything you can do?"
Several staff members stopped.
Moody: "You should go to Ludo Bagman, as far as I know, he'll find someone to dispose of the dragon's corpse and sell it to the Diagon Alley store."
Snape's face was gloomy, "Nick Lestrange, I remember Potions class didn't teach you how to deal with dragons. But I can tell you right now, dragon blood can burn your skin if it's not handled well, and dragon meat can poison you if it's not handled well. It's best not to hit the corpse."
"Thank you, Professor, for explaining. Don't worry, I'm not going to mess around."
Snape didn't say anything and turned to leave. He knew that the Knicks would not give up, and thought of finding an excuse to confiscate the materials that the Knicks bought.
When Professor Snape walked away, the staff with Dragonclaw and Dragontail asked Knicks, "How many gold Galleons can you give?"
"Are you going to leave today?" Nicks didn't answer, he didn't know how much an untreated dragon was, it was hard to bid, but the processed dragon's blood on the market was expensive and sold by the ounce. I want to drag it out and find someone to inquire about the market.
"No, we'll take care of it and leave in a few days." The staff replied.
Knicks were delighted: "That's great. Do you know Charlie Weasley? We can trade through him."
Several staff members looked at each other, they didn't want Charlie to be involved in the transaction, and one more person would have to give out an extra share of the gold gallons.
"How about we trade now?"
The Knicks are also a little entangled, it may be cheaper to buy now, but it is more likely that these wizards lied to him and sold at a higher price, and he didn't want to gamble.
"I need a few days to raise gold Galleons."
"Well, we're just outside the castle, come to me when you're ready. You'd better hurry, these things won't stay in our hands for long. Once you sell it to the shops in Diagon Alley, you're going to have to pay a lot of money for it." The staff reminded.
The dragon's corpse won't stay in their hands for long, and someone will dispose of it in a few days. Until then, they can secretly sell a portion of it, and the money will go into their pockets. When someone comes to deal with it, it will be difficult for them to sell it secretly, and the money from the sale will not have anything to do with them.
The Knicks nodded in agreement. Look at the sky and take Tifa and Luna to the castle for dinner.
