A Professor of Magic at Hogwarts Chapter 394: Security Officer
At noon, Hogwarts students gathered in Clock Square, led by Professor Flitwick, and walked towards the playing field.
"Minerva took the warriors to the temporary tent first." Flitwick said excitedly.
Felix walked side by side with him, walking unhurriedly in front, while the students behind him were chattering and discussing excitedly, a wizard shouted: "I heard the cry of a dragon last night—"
He turned his head, and there were people behind him, like a black winding river. They walked out of the castle, across the long covered bridge, and down the ramp.
When passing by the Black Lake along the way, Durmstrang's students came down from the boat in cloaks to join the team. When they passed near Hagrid's cabin, the huge carriage door opened, and seven or eight dressed men appeared from the golden steps. The Beauxbatons in their blue sateen uniforms, and the Ilvermorny students who poured out of the makeshift Quidditch pitch, stood by the Forbidden Forest waiting for their wizards and wizards of Ouagadu.
The uniforms of these four schools add vitality to the monotonous black tide, like colorful fish swimming in the water.
A group of people walked along the edge of the Forbidden Forest for about 20 minutes. The castle and the lake were gone. An impenetrable forbidden forest.
He heard the sound of hooves. "Is it a centaur?" Felix squinted his eyes and looked at the dense Forbidden Forest. A strange-looking horse's head poked out. It was a Thestral. When he looked over, it disappeared immediately after.
After bypassing another piece of protruding woodland, the eyes suddenly opened up. It was a temporary circular stand with tall wooden piles stacked with crude plank roads, undulating along the terrain. This should be the grandstand, which surrounds the field in a large circle.
On the west side, there is a huge silver tent, and Felix caught a glimpse of Ludo Bagman walking in hastily.
"Everyone go to the stands in order, don't be crowded." Flitwick stood on a wooden step and said to the crowd that kept approaching. Felix said sorry in a low voice, and turned to walk towards the tent.
As soon as he arrived at the door, he could smell the solemn and oppressive atmosphere, and Ludo Bagman's cheerful voice seemed so out of place.
"Well, it's actually very simple. You have to pick out the models inside. Yes, you should know that there are different types of fire dragons. You have to choose on behalf of your team—women first."
When Felix went in, he saw Bagman standing among the Warriors with a big smile. cloth bag.
He was surrounded by the captains of the six teams - Victor Graves, Fleur, Krum, Cedric, Nona Raibert and Harry. Of the six, Harry was the shortest, and especially when he stood next to the tall witch in Waggadu, he looked like a lost child. But today he has to face the threat of the fire dragon together with his companions.
Other team members scattered in the tent, staring at their captain, the sound of breathing seemed to disappear in this tent.
With trembling hands, Fu Rong took out a small, lifelike model of a Welsh green dragon from the bag, her face turned pale for a moment.
Felix's face turned black, it was the fire dragon magic lamp of the "future world"! Is the Ministry of Magic just that lazy?
"Ah, good luck for you, ma'am," Bagman said. At this time, he heard a deep voice in his ears, "Can't you make a model yourself..."
He turned around and saw Felix with a bad expression on his face, he faltered and said, "Felix...well, it was suggested by a young man in the ministry to offset the pressure brought by the real fire dragon with a cute magic lamp , Let the warriors calm down..."
He patted the green dragon model in Fu Rong's hand. It moved immediately, baring its teeth and claws, which scared her so much that she threw it in Bagman's face, and he picked it up from the ground in embarrassment and handed it to Fleur, saying, "Oh, it doesn't look good."
Judging from the expressions of everyone in the tent, the performance was simply terrible.
Fleur returned to her teammates with a cold face, and murmured to arrange the final tactics in French. Felix glanced at them hurriedly, and the two warriors kept shaking their bodies without listening to a word go in.
Wagadu came in second, and Nona drew the fire dragon with pearl-shaped curved scales neatly. It was the Australian Opaleye who was recognized as the 'most beautiful fire dragon', but she was not interested in watching the first one again. Second Eye, eagerly discussing the details of this fire dragon with his teammates.
"It's not very aggressive, it likes to eat sheep...its flame is like magma, very sticky..."
Graves got the Hebrides black dragon, which can reach thirty feet in length as an adult, and the females can be even larger.
Afterwards, Krum took out a bright red Chinese fireball. He lowered his hands and leaned against the pillars in the tent, staring at a hole in the tent above his head. His teammates came over and whispered: "Wei Kedor..."
He said with a calm face: "Proceed as originally planned." The two teammates nodded silently.
Cedric got the blue Swedish short-nosed dragon. He had a happy face and walked quickly to Roger Davis and Collins to show them. The three originally dignified faces had different degrees. This is one of the more suitable tactical choices in their judgment.
There was Harry at the end, with a very bad expression on his face, he knew what the rest was - a black Hungarian Horntail, the largest and most vicious looking.
The night before, he, Ron and Hermione went to see it secretly under the cloak of invisibility, and he believed that everyone else did the same. It was no secret that the day Charlie's dragon trainer team came, at least in Hagrid's date-- He prefers to call it an untimely meeting - Madame Maxime took Beauxbaton's warriors with him openly.
Amid Bagman's expectant expression, Harry numbly took out the last charmander model, lowered his head and stared at the naive Hungarian Horntail model in his hand, the little charmander spread its wings, showing its small fangs, as if He was laughing, and he looked somewhat similar to the Bagman in front of him.
But Harry will not be confused, he has seen the real Hungarian Horntail, the tail that should have been full of sharp thorns is now very smooth - the place of the sharp thorns has become a bronze spot , He subconsciously glanced at Professor Haipu, and felt that the design of the "Future World" company was a bit outrageous.
Why didn't I see this before? he wondered.
Harry got together with Ron and Hermione, and he said quickly, "We have to change our strategy."
…
"Okay, you've got it!" said Bagman, "You've all got the dragon you're going to face, and I'm going to leave you for a while now, because I'm going to give a commentary to the audience. Someone else will bring you in, and you will get out when you hear the whistle. Do you understand?"
Others were a little silent, and Cedric asked a question: "What is our task? And the order of the game?"
"Mission?" Bagman froze for a moment, "Oh, uh...didn't I say?" He glanced at the others in a daze, and everyone in the tent turned their cannibalistic eyes on him , he took out his handkerchief to wipe the sweat on his forehead, "Well, it was my negligence, I should have made it clear from the beginning... That's it, go through the fire dragon to get the dragon egg, and escape smoothly at the same time. As for the order of the game ...There is no order, all of you, play together."
The three of Harry looked at each other, and when they looked up to see Cedric looking at his two teammates meaningfully, they felt confident, at least they practiced this strategy in classroom seven .
He looked at Professor Haipu beside him, who was staring at the carvings in the tent, without any other reaction.
"Why play together? What if you are affected by other teams?" a girl from Beauxbatons screamed.
"This is also one of the tests," Bagman said cautiously: "You must learn to see six directions with your eyes and listen to all directions. There will be a distance between each fire dragon. In theory... you have enough Space, you will understand in due time. So... Harry... can I have a few words with you alone? Come outside?"
Harry looked at him puzzled, they left for a while, and Harry returned with a gloomy expression.
"What's going on?" Ron asked.
"I don't know ~IndoMTL.com~ he seems to want to help me." Harry said rather puzzled, "but I refused, we have prepared so much..."
At this moment, Felix was the only adult left in the tent, and the others looked at him curiously, thinking that this person would leave with Bagman.
"Let me introduce myself first, Felix Heppe, the runes professor at Hogwarts." He said calmly, "You don't need to remember my name, you just need to remember my responsibilities— —I am one of the security officers, of course, the last line of defense.”
"During your competition, the dragon trainers from the dragon farm and the staff of the Ministry of Magic are scattered around. Hovering overhead, it will only intervene when it is most dangerous—when you have no time to call for help."
"Good luck, then."
Felix walked out of the tent, and there was a lot of people outside.
