In Zhang Xiao's senses, something was approaching rapidly.

It was a strange instinct, so he raised his head and opened his eyes, and a faint black dot in the clear night sky suddenly became clear.

Hmm—was Beauxbatons the first to come?

Zhang Xiao squinted her eyes and looked at the carriage being dragged by the winged horse.

But this is quite normal, France is the closest

"Ahh If I'm not mistaken, Beauxbatons' representatives have arrived! ”

Dumbledore's voice rang out in joy, and the young wizards immediately looked around for traces.

This angered Professor McGonagall, who was in charge of order, and she had to let out a loud explosion with her wand.

"Silence! Keep your appearance and formation, and don't look around! ”

But even so, the little wizards couldn't hold back the excitement in their hearts, and still secretly raised their heads to watch.

"There!" A sixth-year student suddenly exclaimed, pointing to the sky above the Forbidden Forest, completely oblivious to McGonagall's commands.

I saw a behemoth, which was rapidly skimming across the deep blue sky, flying towards the castle, gradually getting bigger and bigger.

As the distance approached, its appearance became clearer and clearer, and the little wizards let out a neat exclamation.

It was a huge powder-blue carriage, the size of a house, and twelve winged horses pulled it into the air.

Their long silver manes flutter in the wind, and they're so big they're almost as big as elephants!

The students raised their heads and let out a roar of exclamation.

With a tooth-aching thud, the carriage crashed to the ground.

When the car door opened, the little wizards almost stared out.

They looked up at the woman, who was nearly 3 meters tall, their eyes roaming back and forth over her delicate olive-colored face and huge body.

Ron swallowed and whispered, "Harry. You look at her shoes. ”

Harry's gaze shifted downward, his shiny black heels about the size of a child's sleigh.

Dumbledore began to applaud, and his classmates clapped their hands, many on tiptoe, trying to see the woman more clearly.

Her face relaxed, an elegant smile bloomed, and a glittering hand was stretched out—her fingers were full of rings encrusted with precious opals.

Dumbledore, though also tall, barely bent over when he kissed the hand.

"Ah—dear Madame Maxim, you are still so beautiful." Dumbledore smiled and said, "Welcome to Hogwarts." ”

The two exchanged pleasantries for a while, and Madame Maxim said casually: "Is Karkaroff here?" ”

"Not yet, you know-"

"Shhh

"My students."

The boys and girls, who were standing on the sidelines, immediately stood up and greeted Dumbledore in unison.

Judging from their appearance, they were probably about eighteen or nineteen years old, and the robes on their bodies seemed to be made of delicate silk, bright, and many of them wrapped their faces in scarves.

The students were shivering from the cold, and the silk was not warm at all.

"Would you rather wait here to meet him, or would you rather go in and get warm?" Dumbledore said happily.

"Let's warm up." Madame Maxim said, "But the horses—"

"Our Conservation Magical Creatures teacher will be happy to take care of them." Dumbledore said, "He's the best Fantastic Beasts expert I've ever met, and he'll be able to take care of them perfectly." ”

"Very well—" said Madame Maxime, bowing slightly, "can you tell this Hagrid that these horses only drink pure malt whiskey?" ”

"I'll take care of it." Dumbledore said, bowing as well.

"Come on." Madame Maxim said majestically to her students. The Hogwarts crowd then dodged a passageway for her and her students to walk up the stone steps.

Beauxbatons' arrival was like a signal, and soon there was something strange again above their heads.

Zhang Xiao narrowed his eyes and reached Malfoy beside him: "Look at the moon-"

Malfoy raised his head and cried out in dismay, his voice a little out of tune: "Moon! The moon has fallen! ”

His voice caused many young wizards to raise their heads together.

Then the screams followed, and the moon really fell.

The moon was falling, getting bigger and bigger, and it was soon approaching below.

The little wizards almost couldn't contain their fear and began to run away, screaming in terror to avoid the moon.

Fortunately, Dumbledore's voice rang out again:

"Quiet ——————!"

Only then did the little wizards remember that the headmaster was here, and their panic eased a little.

"Moon Boat, the flying vehicle of the Vagado Academy of Magic."

Moon boat?

The little wizard opened his mouth and looked at the 'moon' that was getting closer and closer, and looked at the bright moonlight it emitted.

I can't help but be fascinated, is this taking off the moon as a boat?

When the 'crooked moon' came to rest gently on the ground, the light around it dimmed.

The little wizards realized that the moon in the sky was still there, untouched.

"What's going on?" Malfoy pointed to the moon boat, and then to the moon in the sky.

Zhang Xiao thought for a while: "Maybe the movement of this ship relies on moonlight?" When it landed, it obscured the moon, so I thought it was plucked? ”

Hey, it seems possible!

Malfoy suddenly thought it was nothing unusual, just a boat like the moon.

But soon his eyes widened in surprise.

Because the light of the moon boat suddenly became stronger again, under this fantastic moonlight, a row of figures suddenly appeared in the open space in front of the moon boat.

They were dressed in orange garments with some patterns.

The shoulders are folded in two places, and a wide black cloth bag is tied around the waist.

The skin is dark, and if it weren't for the light of the moon, there would not even be anyone in sight in this dark place, only a mouthful of white teeth.

A thin old man walked up, and the little wizard noticed that he was not wearing warmer shoes, but something resembling slippers.

Isn't he cold???

"Oh-Dumbledore, my old friend."

The old man hugged Dumbledore with open hands, and greeted him in a voice with a thick accent.

"Long time no see. Master Yowerry. ”

Dumbledore patted him on the back and wanted to say something, but the old man said loudly:

"Wait and say hello Dumbledore, oh shit, it's so cold in England, I've got to take my kids in and warm up first!"

The little wizards let out a low laugh.

Zhang Xiao remembered the news that Brother Hei was almost fainted by heat in China in his previous life, and laughed out loud.

The wizards from Moon Mountain, Uganda, hurried towards the school's auditorium.

Leave the little wizards here to wait.

Almost as soon as the students of Vagadu left, Zhang Xiao moved his ears and turned to look at the Black Lake.

A loud, strange sound wafted towards them from the darkness: a pent-up rumbling and sucking sound, like a giant vacuum cleaner moving along the riverbed......

"In the lake!" Lee Jordan shouted, pointing to the lake: "Look at the lake!" ”

Standing on the slope of the lawn overlooking the site, they could clearly see the calm, black surface of the water, but it was suddenly no longer calm.

There was a commotion in the middle of the lake, and a huge splash rose on the surface of the water, as if boiling water.

Then, right in the middle of the lake, a large whirlpool appeared, as if a huge plug had suddenly been pulled out of the bottom of the lake......

A long, black rod-like thing slowly rose from the whirlpool...... Then Harry saw the sail rigging......

"It's a mast!" He said to Ron and Hermione.

I saw a huge sailboat emerge out of the water so suddenly.

The boat looks very weird, but it is very imposing.

It's like the remains of a shipwreck that has just been salvaged for hundreds of years.

Its surface bears bryophytes that fluoresce.

The portholes shimmered with a dim, foggy glow that looked like ghostly eyes.

Finally, with a faint splashing of water, the big boat came out completely, tossed on the undulating water, and began to sail towards the shore.

A moment later they heard a thud, an iron anchor thrown into the shallow water, and then another snap, and a plank was placed on the shore of the lake.

A row of men in heavy fur cloaks stepped out, they were quite tall, their fur was unkempt and tangled, and they looked like some kind of beast.

But the man who led them to the castle wore a different kind of fur: silvery-white, soft and smooth, much like his hair.

Well. This should be a Karkaroff who is completely disgraced to the principal.

A former Death Eater, somehow mixed up with the Headmaster, ended up dying tragically in a cave.

With the light of the moon boat, Zhang Xiao could see his face clearly.

Karkaroff has a curled goatee (with small curls at the ends), thin cheeks, sunken eyes, bulging cheekbones, and a bit of a hanging brow.

"Dumbledore!" As he walked up the slope, Karkarov enthusiastically shouted: "My dear old fellow, how are you?" ”

His voice was mellow and sweet, and he shook Dumbledore's hand with two hands.

Although there was a smile on his face, there was no smile in his eyes, and he was still cold and sharp.

"Ah, it's good that Hogwarts is here, it's good...... Wickdor, come over and warm up...... You don't mind, Dumbledore? Victor is a bit of a cold......"

Karkaroff motioned for one of his students to step forward.

As the boy walked by, the little wizards seemed to have lost the ability to speak, and could only scream in the air.

"Victor Krum !!"

Ron was going crazy, grabbing his hair and shaking Harry's arm desperately, as if he had seen an idol.

Harry was shaken by her and almost lost his glasses, but Ron was far more excited, almost all the little wizards who went to the World Cup were screaming and whispering.

Well, it's similar to the star-chasing scene in the previous life.

Just when everyone was chasing after Krum, Zhang Xiao once again sensed that something was wrong in advance.

He opened his eyes and stared at the clearing not far away.

There, a small sprout is breaking through the ground.

1. Commuter pass 2. Recommended ticket

A total of 7 schools are to be described, which should be considered a highlight, and it can't be written casually, so it takes more pen and ink~

I've become more diligent these days, asking for a monthly pass!
