The young wizards silently digested what Dumbledore had just explained.

As with the first two rounds, the rules for the third round are actually not complicated.

Everyone would be scattered all over New York, with no wands, no props, nothing, and survive for a week in the Muggle-filled city of America's largest city.

During this period, you need to disguise yourself and do not expose yourself.

After seven days, you can buy clues about where the wand is hidden, and each clue is worth $1,000.

Once you've got your wand, you'll be able to head to the Metropolitano Stadium, where you'll be the first to arrive.

The road to the stadium must not be easy to walk, there should be obstacles, and even if you have a wand, you still have to be careful not to expose yourself.

The faces of all the warriors gradually became serious, with a little bitterness.

The difficulty of the third round doesn't sound difficult, but it's actually quite hard.

Wizards and Muggles look the same, but their living circumstances are very different.

Some of the warriors had pretty good faces, and some of them were on the verge of frowning.

These were all children of mixed-race families, and very few were Muggle wizards from their families of origin.

They knew a lot about Muggle society, and at least received a full primary education.

Other than that were the warriors of Vagado, the last magic school to use wands, had been using gestures to cast spells until then.

While the magic effects and cast speed are significantly lower than those of wands, it is clear that gesture magic will take advantage in this case.

As Dumbledore said, there is not always luck in every difficulty, and facing difficulties without fancy is life.

"If there are no problems, we will go to the meeting point on the US side via the door key, so. Is there still anyone who has a problem? ”

A young wizard of Ilvermorny hesitated and raised his arm:

"Mr. Dumbledore, my aunt's house is in New York, can I go to my aunt's house?"

Dumbledore was amused by the question, and he said happily:

"As much as I'm tempted to say it's okay, obviously, it's not allowed."

Fleur Delacour also raised her hand:

"Professor Dumbledore, is the wand hidden in each school? After cracking the clues, everyone can get their own wand? ”

Dumbledore's gaze rested on her face and nodded appreciatively;

"Miss Fleur, I appreciate your acuity, I was going to use this as a small trap.

But since you brought it up——————"

Dumbledore nodded slowly:

"Unfortunately, as you can imagine, everyone's wand is hidden in different places, and if you need to buy them all, you will need a total of 18 clues, which is $18,000.

Yes, because the Alchemy Intercom has been removed, this time the substitutes will also be on the field. ”

The warriors' faces grew paler.

In fact, the vast majority of people think that they will be able to get everyone's wand by buying up to 3 clues.

Looking around at the silent little wizard again, Dumbledore nodded:

"Let's go!"

This is the largest doorkey Zhang Xiao has ever seen, and it is also the strangest.

It's like a roller coaster, with all the little wizards sitting in their seats and locking themselves firmly with safety buckles.

Professor McGonagall and the other Hogwarts professors checked each one by one, her serious voice ringing in everyone's ears:

"The portkeys for intercontinental travel are completely different from what you are used to!

If you don't want to be a mess of rotten meat in the U.S., you'd better just sit down! ”

It wasn't until all the professors had confirmed that the warriors were seated that Professor McGonagall nodded at Dumbledore.

Dumbledore didn't look like an old man in his hundreds, but he was able to get into the front of the car with agility, and he didn't know where to find a windproof glasses.

"Let's go!"

He stretched out his slender fingers and gently stroked the front of the car, and the wordless spell had been activated, as if the body of the car was shining with strong light:

"Mentos!"

In the next second, all the people only felt a huge pulling force around them, and they suddenly left the ground and rushed into the sky.

Zhang Xiao finally knew why she was using this roller coaster-like thing as a portkey.

It was as if they had come to a huge drum washing machine, surrounded by a scene of rapid spinning, and just a little look at it made them dizzy and wanted to vomit.

No, someone had already started to vomit, and the food they had just eaten in the auditorium had been digested by stomach acid and turned into something extremely disgusting.

Zhang Xiao's scalp was numb, and he directly activated the Iron Armor Curse, but fortunately, Dumbledore's strength could still easily face any problem in this situation.

Even at high speed, he still used an extremely subtle cleansing charm.

Zhang Xiao swears that the most exciting roller coaster in the world is definitely not as exciting as this one!

The feeling of being fluctuating, spinning rapidly, and having a big loop every now and then. It's just so sour.

I don't know how long it took for them to suddenly break away from that high-speed spin.

The little wizards who had been closing their eyes and gritting their teeth secretly opened a slit, only to find that they had come to the sky at some point.

Below is a dense light of lights, a huge city!

The roller coaster descended rapidly, and the huge feeling of falling made their scalps tingle, an instinct engraved in human genes.

The ground zoomed in rapidly, and in just a few moments, they swooped down from the air to the ground.

Then he suddenly slowed down less than a few dozen meters above the ground and slowly landed on the ground.

Dumbledore took off his goggles, and the long-awaited tournament personnel rushed up to pour potions on the young wizards who were using the Intercontinental Gatekeys for the first time.

"Welcome to. New York! ”

On the other side, at the final scene of the final round of the game, the audience has already begun to prepare to take their seats.

The New York Mets is the home of the NFL's New York Giants and the New York Jets, and was the only exception in the NFL to share a home stadium before SoFi Field in Los Angeles went into service.

Not only is this palatial and imposing stadium a landmark in New York, but it was also the most expensive stadium in the world, costing a staggering $1.6 billion!

With a capacity of up to 82,500 people, the ultra-luxurious stadium also boasts four 1,210-inch high-definition giant screens, 2,018 televisions to allow spectators to watch the game without any dead spots, and there are fixed drink cup holders for each seat in the auditorium, as well as 1,350 toilets.

Only this time, the screens used to broadcast the game were replaced by magic projections.

They were an exact replica of the Muggle arrangement, and while it was not clear what the screen was intended to be, it was clear that it was perfectly fine.

Now this unprecedented super luxury stadium has been taken over by the International Federation of Wizards, who have used magic and money to make the stadium a place for wizards to party.

As the final round of the Super Cup of Fire, arriving to watch the game has undoubtedly become the most sought-after and hottest thing in the entire wizarding world.

Wizards are crazy about the game, and this madness has also sold tickets to the tournament to unimaginably high prices.

Although a full 60,000 seats were open this time, at least a few thousand tickets were occupied by the top officials of the Ministry of Magic from all over the world, as well as their relatives.

Plus the Wizengamot, the Knights of Merlin, those families who enjoy fame and status in the wizarding world

Now there is a saying in the wizarding world that wants to know what is your status in the wizarding world?

Then go get a ticket for the third round, the better the seat, the higher the status.

And this kind of rumors and celebrity gatherings in turn stimulate some people who are not interested, just like celebrities and some ill-intentioned people like to rub off on the heat.

There is no shortage of such people in the wizarding world.

So the most high-end and elite people in the entire wizarding world gathered here!

In the midst of all the attention, Ludo Bagman once again stood in front of the commentary table and roared in an excited voice:

"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the first Super Goblet of Fire!

I'm Ludo and I'm going to spend a little unforgettable time here with you!

Go and witness which school will get the final trophy. ”

Ludo turned around and looked at the huge screen, the magic projector gradually lit up.

"Now that the warriors have arrived at the starting point, Lord Dumbledore is giving them the final rules presentation.

In a little while, the third round will officially begin!

Until then, we're going to get into everyone's favorite ad breaks. ”

Tens of thousands of spectators booed and laughed on the huge stadium.

Ludo Bagman was unmoved, but calmly pulled out his hand card and read the advertising slogan:

"Halo Company."

"Cornflower family broom – the best choice for your whole family."

"The best travel company - specializing in the production of all types of travel houses, do you want the same travel house as the warriors?"

"Defan Ready-to-Wear Store - Classics Forever, Oriental Warrior Zhang Christmas Ball Dress Replica Shocking Listing!"

As soon as the advertising slogan was read, the entire huge venue erupted in violent screams, and the dress was so impressive.

Countless women were fascinated by the beauty and fabrics that belonged to the East.

It can only be said that the benefits are crazy, and under the temptation of Garon, Tuofan spent a lot of money and hired experts in related fields in the wizarding world, and even Newt was invited.

After several months of hard work, I finally succeeded in making a similar fabric, and the yield was impressive.

"Finally—" Ludo put away his card and announced loudly:

"The logistics of this round of the competition are still handled by the 'elf housekeeping service company', and the spectators can call the elves through the call button, and they can provide a number of services such as eating, phantom shifter to take you to the toilet, etc."

As soon as the words fell, many people had curiously picked up the things next to each seat, pressed the button, and then heard some small voices:

"What do you need?"

"Uh, a butterbeer?"

"Seat B231?"

"Yes."

Immediately after, a freshly baked butterbeer suddenly appeared in the drink holder.

It's so convenient!

Many wizards ate the food that had just appeared, but they thought to themselves that this elf housekeeping service company seemed to be really good.

Do you want. Get your feet wet?

At this moment, Zhang Xiao, who didn't know that his company had inexplicably taken over a lot of business, was putting his wand in the box in front of Dumbledore.

After a while, these boxes with wands will be sent away, this box does not know how it was made, even with the unique fit between Zhang Xiao and the wand, now I feel that the connection is much weaker.

Separated from his wand for the first time, Zhang Xiao actually had a faint sense of amazement in his heart.

Seeing the little wizard in front of him staring directly at the boxes, Dumbledore smiled, and with a slight wave of his hand, the boxes flew up and fell into the bags.

The little wizards' faces were pale, and the look of mourning made many of the staff laugh secretly.

"Alright, now that the wand is collected, it's time for you to choose where you want to go."

Dumbledore stretched out his palm, and inside it was a delicate 20-sided copper dice.

20-sided dice?

"Zhang, as the first place in the first two rounds, you come first." Dumbledore took out 10 cards for $100 and handed them to Zhang Xiao, and then handed over the dice.

Zhang Xiao took the dollar, 100 dollars is better than giving him 50 tickets in 20 denominations, 100 US dollars are rarely used even by the Americans themselves, and it is very eye-catching to take out.

I am not afraid of others robbing, the key is to add a lot of trouble.

Casually tossing the brass dice into the box, the number 6 that appeared, he turned his head to look at Dumbledore.

Then he saw his principal stretch out his hand again:

"One more time."

Zhang Xiao didn't know why, and continued to throw the dice, which was still 6.

In front of Dumbledore, a map of New York appeared, divided into a dense grid of 19 vertical and 19 horizontal lines (as shown in the picture)

Just in an instant, Zhang Xiao understood, it turned out to be like this!

Throw twice to determine the vertical and horizontal, your own throw of 6.6, is to count 6 squares vertically, horizontally count 6 squares.

Sure enough, randomly!

Three men in suits walked over, this was the Auror who followed Zhang Xiao, and they put one hand on Zhang Xiao's shoulder.

Dumbledore nodded at him:

"So. Good luck, Zhang! ”

With the strong squeezing sensation brought by the phantom shift, there was a sound like a car backfire, and their figures quickly stretched and disappeared.

"Next, Hogwarts Warriors, please come to the front!"

At the Mets Stadium, a huge screen suddenly lit up.

Above is the picture of Zhang Xiao, dressed as a Muggle, standing in a small forest blankly.

The noisy venue was silent for a moment, followed by a huge cheer.

Ludo Bagman raised the microphone and roared hoarsely:

"Ladies and gentlemen, the first Super Goblet of Fire, the third round of the decisive round, has officially begun!"
