A Professor of Magic at Hogwarts Chapter 398: Projection technology
Harry, Ron, and Hermione stayed on through the game, begging, as Professor McGonagall kept urging them to go to the makeshift tent for treatment.
"I'm fine, Professor McGonagall." Harry said, at this time he took the white essence from Hermione and applied it on his wound, and the bleeding stopped quickly.
Professor McGonagall pursed his lips and stared at him for a long time. Taking advantage of this time, Harry hurriedly lowered his head and cast a healing spell for himself—this was one of the spells he had learned, Professor Hemp hinted Some of their spells will be used as the entrance standard for the new school year - he felt his wound itching, he couldn't help reaching out to touch it, Professor McGonagall's stern eyes looked over again, he had to put his hand down, Ron beside him Laughed out loud.
"Okay, after the game, you...you're going to Madam Pomfrey's for an examination." Professor McGonagall said, she glanced at Ron and Hermione, except for the dirty body and face, It was dusty and didn't look injured in the slightest.
Professor McGonagall did not leave until Harry reassured him again and again. At this time, Harry found that his wound had tightened.
"I've never found such a useful spell," said Harry in amazement.
"Oh, this spell can only heal some small wounds. If you plan to become a healer in the future, you will find that there are too many things to learn." Hermione said as she stuffed the vial of white essence into her pocket.
"Who wants to be a therapist?" Ron muttered, noticing that both Ron and Hermione were looking at him: "I mean, you have to deal with a lot of weird cases every day... I should Told you guys that Bill had a brazilian pen pal in school who sent him a hexed hat because he couldn't pay for the trip... Anyway, his ears are more wrinkled than a house-elf Worse yet, Mom had to take him to the hospital...I was only five or six years old, but St. Mungo's made a huge impression on me.”
He frowned, with a look of disgust on his face.
"...a wizard with an extra arm on his chest, a witch who just hopped around as if she were a kangaroo - weird, there are no kangaroos in England! I remember one getting his chest punctured by some animal The unlucky guy, the wound has been bleeding, and when the therapist cleaned him, it smelled so bad..."
Harry and Hermione both felt a little uncomfortable.
When the game was over, Professor McGonagall immediately looked over with a majestic gaze. Before the three of them could react, she appeared next to them as if using apparition, so they immediately went to the temporary tent safely. Walk.
"Potter," Harry turned his head, and heard Professor McGonagall say to them, "And Weasley, Granger...you did a great job!" The voice said: "Go to the tent, Madam Pomfrey is waiting for you... Maybe you can come back before the judges score."
When passing by the stands, the crowd enthusiastically shouted their names, and a huge arm hung from the platform. It was Hagrid, who said excitedly: "You have succeeded! Great, you are facing the fiercest Hungarian Horntail—"
Harry, Ron and Hermione smiled and took turns to high-five Hagrid. Ron said lightly on his feet, "Oh...it's actually not that difficult..."
At the temporary wooden gate, Sirius jumped up excitedly and hugged them.
"You guys are the best team I've ever seen!"
…
At the same time, a heated discussion was going on in the referee's seat on the high platform. The seven judges exchanged opinions on the performance of the six teams.
"Is the Swedish Brachysaurus a bit too weak?" Karkaroff questioned.
"It's not—" Bagman retorted, "You saw it! Its flames melted the chains specially made by the dragon farm, and it is the strongest of the dragons... Felix, you are the security officer , you can see it most clearly from a high place, tell me!"
He looked at Felix. As the last line of defense, although Felix did not have the power to score, he was also pulled over, in the name of "providing details that others cannot see."
"Actually, except for the Hungarian Horntail, the other five dragons are almost the same," Felix scratched his chin, and said, "If you have to compare, the Swedish Short-nosed Dragon is relatively strong among them, at least its flame The temperature is extremely high... What I saw is that everyone in the team has completed their respective tasks excellently."
"Cedric Diggory's weather magic made the fire dragon become irritable and irrational, which can be seen from the fact that it broke free from the shackles and chose to disperse the rain clouds instead of attacking the warriors... The timing of Roger Davis's launch is also very clever, his illusion spell is not outstanding, in order to avoid being discovered, there is no action in the early stage, but his role in the team is very important—"
Felix smiled and said, "He belongs to the horn of saving the field and launching a general attack."
"If the fire dragon attacks Digory madly, Davis must stand up decisively to stop it, and the actual scene is also commendable. He activated the black thorn just when the fire dragon just flew off the ground...excellent growth spell ... As for Collins Foley, she didn't do much action, but you should have seen her patience, courage and trust in her teammates throughout the game, she was under the feet of the Swedish short-snout dragon After squatting for at least two minutes, if there is a slight accident in the middle, she may not be able to run out."
The judges present were not lacking in vision, but Felix was just telling the truth.
They quickly finished their discussion and were about to score. Felix suddenly said: "The purpose of the competition is to select the best young wizards from different schools, let them compete on the same stage, participate in the training, and hope that they will be able to participate in the competition in the future." Demonstrate the courage that wizards admire in difficult tasks... Several judges, I suggest that each judge should comment a few words when giving specific scores, and let the warriors know their own strengths and weaknesses..."
The judges looked at each other.
"Will it be too late?" Bagman said a little blankly: "We didn't arrange this process... But, it's not impossible..."
"As the principal, I certainly hope to see the warriors gain something this year." Dumbledore said with a smile.
Fuji looked at the other judges with hesitation: "What do you think?"
"This idea is very good." Mrs. Maxim said, she didn't think there was anything wrong with it, but welcomed it very much.
"I also agree with this proposal. The students of Ouagadu should know their own shortcomings, and they cannot make the same mistake twice." Said the principal of Ouagadu, the skinny witch, sitting cross-legged on a flying carpet It looks like it stepped out of a comic book.
In fact, the British Ministry of Magic has banned the production and sale of flying carpets, but she is only used by herself, and she is a foreigner, so Fudge pretends not to see it.
"Your speech is very wise, Ms. Nagy." Felix bowed slightly.
Several judges agreed one after another, and they sat back in the referee's seat, ready to score. Felix walked away from the dais and smiled at Karkaroff - he didn't look very happy.
"Ahem! Be quiet—" Bagman said loudly, and the crowd in the stands gradually fell silent. ratings."
"But please allow me to review the whole game first. Many people may not have time to get a glimpse of the whole picture. After all, there are too many wonderful pictures, and the eyes can't keep up...I will describe the dragon eggs in the order in which they were obtained."
"The first team I'm going to say is the brave men from Hogwarts, Cedric Diggory, Roger Davies and Collins Foley, who picked up the dragon in the shortest possible time Egg, and defeated the fire dragon, and did not suffer any injuries;
The second team to get the dragon egg was the warriors of Waggadu. Nona Leibert used a wonderful cheetah transformation to bring out the dragon egg. Of course, their strategy was a bit aggressive, which resulted in one team member being killed The fire dragon is trapped and the security guard intervenes in the game, which may become a deduction item. Nevertheless, they also dedicated a wonderful game for us.
The third team that got the dragon egg was also from Hogwarts. They were the youngest, still in the fourth grade, but they performed very well. They were the only two teams that got the dragon egg and escaped from the fire dragon team;
The fourth team to get the dragon egg was Durmstrang, although they only grabbed some fragments;
The fifth team to get the dragon egg was Beauxbaton. Ms. Delacour was so brave that she threw the dragon egg to her teammate at the last moment, but she got into trouble and had to rely on the protection of the security guard;
The last team is Ilvermorny, well, although they didn't get the dragon egg, it's a matter of strategy, and their compound magic is still very eye-catching..."
Bagman briefly introduced the performance of the six teams, allowing the audience to revisit it in their minds, and they talked a lot. At this time, the warriors in the audience came back one after another, and after waiting for a while, he said loudly: "Then, the judges, please rate the first team!"
Harry squinted his eyes and looked at the judging table. The first judge, Mrs. Maxim, raised her wand, and a long ribbon-like thing emerged from the tip of the wand, twisting and forming a number "10." ".
Ms. Maxim commented: "The Hogwarts group has fully demonstrated the qualities that warriors must possess—courage, wisdom, loyalty, and trust. In this one item alone, their performance is impeccable. I give Out of ten."
Her fair speech won her a round of applause.
"Maybe they will get full marks." Ron clapped his hands and said, the sixth judge still gave ten points, "I hope we won't be too far behind, logically speaking, our performance is not too bad, Right?"
Harry nodded sharply, while watching the last of the judges, Karkaroff raised his wand slowly, the silver ribbon twisting to form the number "7".
Everyone on the field was a little absent-minded and couldn't believe their eyes. They were all ready to meet the first full-scoring team, but now it was all in vain. The number seven was so dazzling.
"Karkaroff..." On the high platform, Bagman looked at him hesitantly.
In his characteristic smooth, greasy voice, Karkaroff said: "You see courage, I see recklessness, they don't need to stun the dragon at all, it will bring potential danger ..."
But before he finished speaking, someone in the crowd shouted, "Nonsense!" Seamus shouted loudly, and Karkaroff looked over with his cold eyes, but Seamus looked at him bravely and said, He shouted loudly: "Everyone understands what's going on, that was the best choice at the time!"
A voice of approval echoed him.
"I stand by my opinion," Karkaroff said.
"Okay," Bagman snorted twice, "every judge has the right to score independently... In this way, the total score of the Hogwarts team is 67 points, temporarily ranking first , I believe it will be difficult for latecomers to catch up, but it's hard to say... let's continue..."
…
In the end, Harry and the others scored 61 points, ranking second—Ludo Bagman enthusiastically praised the youngest warriors and gave them full marks without hesitation. The Warriors of Ouagadu scored 53 points and ranked third; Durmstrang scored 50 points and ranked fourth; Beauxbaton scored 48 points and ranked fifth; Ilphmorny scored 23 points.
What is more controversial is the ranking of Durmstrang and Beauxbatons. No one expected that when the judges gave six and seven points, Karkaroff shamelessly raised ten points, causing There was an uproar.
You must know that although Bagman gave Harry this group ten points, it was also in a situation of nine points. Although it was abrupt, it was not a big problem. Warriors, but what Karkaroff did was blatantly cheating.
After scoring, the warriors and judges regrouped in the makeshift tent to wait to receive information on the second project. Felix was about to leave, but Bagman stopped him enthusiastically, "Don't leave in a hurry, Felix, I have something to discuss with you..."
The sound of footsteps outside kept passing by, and there were endless discussions. Harry sat on the side, dazed in boredom—he escaped from under the dragon's feet, and he was lazy now.
"...that eccentric old mallet, he gave the warriors of his school ten, ten! Ha, don't you need to pay for the broken dragon eggs?"
"If I were him, I would be too ashamed to see anyone!"
Intense conversation sounded outside, Harry raised his head, blinked his eyes twice, he recognized the two voices, they were Seamus Finnigan and Dean Thomas. He didn't know if his two roommates were trying to fight, because Karkaroff only gave their group a six.
In the tent, Karkaroff's face was blue, but he endured the strange eyes and remained silent.
Felix smacked his lips: "Although it's normal for the headmaster to favor his own warriors, it's rare to be so 'preferred' to this extent...Maybe the scoring rules should be made more transparent."
"We will seriously consider it." Bagman immediately said cooperatively.
Ten minutes later, the footsteps outside became sparse. The Minister of Magic, Cornelius Fudge, stood up and touched his stomach. The gemstone ring on his thick finger was polished and shiny. He said enthusiastically: "I would like to congratulate all the warriors and congratulate you on successfully passing the first test. I noticed that some teams did not perform well, but there are still opportunities later... I will introduce the second project. Batty came, but he took a long vacation, maybe he was too tired, busy with two big projects in a row, I had to reject the meeting with the Austrian Minister of Magic..."
No one is interested in his boring work diary, but he still talks for ten minutes, from the weird oral habit of the Austrian Minister of Magic, to the cauldron teapot of the president of the Extraordinary Apothecary Association-he seems to want to say something in his speech A little joke is added, but it's obviously not enough.
"Kingsley!" he shouted.
A tall, dark-skinned man came in from outside the tent, holding two golden eggs, one in each hand.
"The second project will be held on the morning of February 24 next year. Before that, you can take a good rest." Fudge said: "The golden egg in your hand is the clue to the second project. Got to the gap? They can be opened, you guys need to decipher the message left behind, honestly I'm not sure if I'll be there when the second project is underway, maybe by then Barty's in shape, but I might as well Come here to join in the fun, being with the best wizards in the world, I feel younger..."
He waved his hand, and Kingsley controlled the two golden eggs to fly towards the warriors of Durmstrang and Ilvermorny.
When Krum and Byers took the golden egg, both of them looked a little ashamed. Among the six teams, only they failed to protect the dragon eggs.
"Ludo, I'll leave the rest to you." Fudge said to Bagman, and he nodded towards everyone, "Sorry, there are too many things in the ministry, I'll go first."
When everyone else left, Ludo Bagman finally had time to communicate with Felix alone. He pulled a chair and sat next to Felix's single sofa.
"There are two things related to you." He couldn't wait to say: "The first thing involves a unique magic of yours. I want to ask about its effect, and it may be used in the second project... ...the second thing, about your 'Future World' company."
Felix was stunned, and looked at him with searching eyes: "Have you looked for Remus? He is in charge of the company's affairs now."
"I've looked for it," Bagman said with a bit of embarrassment, "but he said he can't make the decision, so I can only beg you..."
"Do you want me to donate some money?"
"Oh, no, of course not, I heard that Remus is organizing people to develop projection technology? You know, Batty is on leave, and now the burden is on me alone. In order to make the game better, we must Do something brave and innovative. That's part of courage, don't you think?"
Felix thought quickly.
He knows about the projection technology, and he arranged it. Inspired by the panoramic telescope of the Quidditch World Cup, this gadget uses a very interesting magic that can temporarily store images.
Felix's request to the future world research team is to imitate the function of a TV and make something similar. He mentioned some concepts of signal towers and extensions ~IndoMTL.com~ and there is a magic radio as a reference. The progress is not slow, but he has not had time to ask in detail about the specific step.
"Don't rush to say no," Bagman couldn't help saying, seeing Felix lost in thought, "This would be an excellent advertisement, and the ministry promised to pay a rent. Buy it, I have a limited budget."
"If it's a normal business transaction, I can't figure out why Remus refused." Felix said slowly.
"Ahem, he thinks I have a big mouth and keeps the progress of the research secret..." Bagman turned his head away in embarrassment.
"Okay, let me ask for you."
"The first thing...?" Bagman explained in detail.
After a moment of thinking——
"I think this kind of game is interesting enough." Felix folded his arms and said with bright eyes.
