Chapter 119 118
The atmosphere at Hogwarts has become like a pot of mixed stew after Harry was elected "Warrior".
There are two most breaking news—the "savior" was deliberately created, and the other is even more terrifying. The person whose name cannot be said is actually not dead, and he is back.
Not all the little badgers believed Harry's words, but it was impossible not to be affected.
In fact, those children from the ordinary world whose parents are ordinary people don’t know what the Dark Lord is and how terrifying he is, and even those children living in the magical world don’t know that period of time full of cruel struggles. They don't have any intuitive memory, and most of their fear of the Dark Lord is infected by their parents and other elders.
To use an analogy, the perception of the Dark Lord by children born in the Muggle world is like saying that there is a perverted serial killer in other countries. Unfortunately, they are studying in this perverted country now, and this The pervert who disappeared for a long time is about to appear again.
For those pure-blood or mixed-race children, it seems that the horror stories they heard before are about to come true, fearful but lacking in reality.
It can only be said that human beings are amazing. Painful memories will be preserved for a long time, but at the same time it is extremely easy to indulge in the comfort of the moment.
For children, the Dark Lord is far away, but Dumbledore and Harry are close by.
So when Harry used the art of language to fully explore Dumbledore's cruel calculations under the aura of love, power, justice and justice, the children's reactions were more emotional than the return of the Dark Lord, who was reluctant to believe because of psychological conflicts.
Because the old dragon ha is really too deceitful, after fully affirming Dumbledore's achievements, through a reasonable combination of reality, he put himself in the hands of the most trusted person without knowing it. position.
The magic world is sparsely populated and the fertility is not strong. The strong fertility of Wesley's family can be called a miracle.
If it weren't for the fact that many little wizards from purely ordinary families join here every year, it would be hard to say how many students there would be at Hogwarts.
For this part of young wizards, Dumbledore is a high-ranking headmaster, and Dumbledore always wears strange-colored robes in front of the students, and he looks a little surprised and crazy, even if he hears about it. It is also difficult for his great deeds to respect Dumbledore as deeply as some young wizards from Dumbledore's loyal families.After all, Dumbledore was protecting the magical world, and they didn't feel too deeply about it.
After tossing and turning, many people felt that Harry's statement was actually very reasonable.
Sacrificing the interests of a small number of people for the interests of the majority is a natural decision for the superior.But who wants to be abandoned and sacrificed?Even if it is voluntary, at least let others know!
Silently, a group of young wizards began to examine the environment they were in.
If what Harry said was true, then they had really been in close contact with that terrifying big devil for so long that even Dumbledore was helpless!
After fear comes anger.
Even a little wizard who is not fully mature can think.
Speaking of which, the little wizards in the magical world are actually much simpler than those in the ordinary world. They have been living in a small closed environment, with only one or two poor newspapers and magazines and a magic radio station. In the world of this kind of news explosion, those children who are under the impact of various ideas all day long, their eyes are almost black and white, and they are extremely easy to go to extremes.
When Harry's words were spread secretly through the little badgers who had a wide range of friends, countless versions of evolution were produced in an instant.
Know that no one is liked by everyone like money.
Dumbledore was, and so was Harry.
As a result, Hogwarts completely ignored the existence of representatives from the other two schools, and disputes and conflicts occurred every moment due to the spread of gossip.
What's even more frightening is that it has become an open secret that the guy who can't even say his name is dead, the only difference is whether he wants to believe it or not.
In this way, Old Longha easily turned Hogwarts, which was originally a hidden vortex like a black lake, into a hurricane.
Many little wizards who were originally dissatisfied with Harry's selection and who were also loyal to Dumbledore were angry with Harry like a volcanic eruption. Let Hogwarts change another warrior.
Unfortunately, no success so far.
Harry had been dragged into his cave early on by Regulus in the name of emergency pre-match training with his big tail flicking.
Being dragged down later, Hermione's life during this period was very sad.
After all, she belongs to Gryffindor, and the most Gryffindors are Dumbledore's loyalists. These angry little lions couldn't find a chance to target Harry, so they turned their finger on Harry's "best friend" Hermione's body.
Hermione had expected it a long time ago. Compared with the little girl whose heart was broken after a few words, Hermione has been completely trained to become a female man, and she is constantly moving forward on the road to become an invincible female man.
Hermione has already resigned to the old Long Ha's coldness and willfulness, and she has long since given up hope that Harry will have the virtue of "considering others".In Harry's eyes, everyone can be a game on his whim. If he likes him, he will caress him. It just happened to activate some kind of whim that made him appear to be a little more advanced game, no matter how advanced the doll is, it is still a doll.
Hermione actually underestimated the status of her and Draco in Old Longha's heart. At first, Old Longha really planned to raise them as cubs (although he didn't ask for their opinions), but later, due to some The status of these two cubs has gradually declined after being stimulated by people's intrusion and showing their true nature.In a way, a wily fellow had succeeded.
Even so, Hermione still has respect for Harry. Yes, Hermione resented Harry when the sincere friendship she paid at the beginning was not reciprocated, but later when she learned more and more from Harry The more knowledge she has, the more power she has mastered, and when she is far away from her classmates and even her seniors, she suddenly understands.
Even if one day she could become close friends with Draco, she and Harry couldn't be friends—she couldn't understand Harry, couldn't understand each other, how could they be friends.
In any case, she should thank Harry for what he taught her, for making her grow up, for letting her see the wider world.
Hermione had already lost interest in responding to some extreme provocations. She hoped that she would have endless knowledge to explore, and she had no time to quarrel with others.
After several provocations and various pranks that failed to get a response, some little guys who couldn't bear it finally moved their wands and fists.
Hermione was impatient and wanted to solve it all at once, but what she didn't expect was that Neville, who had always been timid, stood in front of her.
"If you think Potter cheated, then you who also used Potter's suggestion to sign up didn't cheat?!
The fact that the Goblet of Fire chose Porter means that he is stronger than all of you!
What right do you have to impose your will on others because of jealousy? What right do you have to attack others because of jealousy!
If you think Potter is accusing Professor Dumbledore, why don't you go to Professor Dumbledore for confirmation and refute Potter openly!
A group of boys bullying an innocent girl together, is this what you call justice? ! "
Everyone was shocked.
Neville, who usually stutters even when speaking, is brave enough to reprimand loudly to a group of fellow students who are full of violent impulses all by himself, and he is very logical!
Bang bang bang bang
There was a sudden burst of applause.
A platinum dragon smirked and clapped its hands lightly.
"Well said, Mr. Longbottom, with my regards."
Hermione, recovering from the shock of Neville's 'transformation', took a deep breath and gave Draco a 'you're boring' look.
The "noble and glamorous" platinum dragon holds his breath, this stupid lioness!
"What the hell is going on here!"
The hurried footsteps brought a voice that made the troublesome little lions tremble collectively. Professor McGonagall's face had already started to turn black. This was the first time these days!
In the eyes of representatives of Beauxbatons and Durmstrang, the image of Hogwarts has probably been completely destroyed.
It has to be said that even the impartial and serious Professor McGonagall could not help feeling dissatisfied with Harry who continued to spread rumors after embarrassing Dumbledore in public.
After dealing with the problem in front of him, Professor McGonagall rushed into the principal's office: "Mr. Principal, I think you must talk to Mr. Potter as soon as possible, and then quickly resolve all kinds of rumors in the school. Things can't continue like this down!"
Dumbledore smiled wryly, "Minerva, calm down. Leaving aside Harry's prejudice against me, you and I both know that that person has indeed returned. Originally, I didn't want to make this news public at this time, but, I After thinking about it, maybe this is not a bad time, people have been comfortable for too long, they have almost forgotten the horror of that person, we need to make them vigilant."
"Yes, be vigilant, but it's not a riot." Professor McGonagall has completely lost his patience, "The Triwizard Tournament has not yet started, and the students in the school have already started fighting themselves. Do you want this situation to continue? Is it? They are a group of impulsive children. I can't imagine how much harm it will do to these children if they get out of control. You must come forward! Only you can calm them down!"
"Okay, okay, I'll go back and have a good talk with Harry." Dumbledore compromised.
In fact, the old man no longer had any hope for Harry. If Harry was a magic weapon to win in his heart, now he has become an arrow in the back, and he will stab him at some point.
The invitation letter from Dumbledore's phoenix, Harry went with great embarrassment.
The room was full of silverware, so Harry found a place to sit comfortably.
Dumbledore poured two cups of tea in silence.
Harry held out his hand rudely, and a cup of tea flew steadily into his hand.
Dumbledore quietly watched Harry's every move.
After a while, the old man said, "Harry, are you really Harry?"
"Of course I am Harry, but unfortunately, I am not the Harry you expected." Old Longha tilted his head innocently.
Dumbledore sighed.
"It was my fault, from the beginning until now."
"No matter how smart people are, there are always unexpected things, and this is not a big deal."
"Yeah," Dumbledore nodded. At this moment, with a kind of weakness belonging to his real age, he was too confident. Even though he found out that Harry was wrong and examined it suspiciously, he still failed in the end. It is estimated that Harry's gap beyond his expectations is actually so big.At first Dumbledore once doubted whether Harry and Tom were related, but now, the old man who has lived in the magical magical world for more than 100 years finally has a more reliable guess, "The soul is really a wonderful thing, just Like fate."
Harry smiled, "He is indeed the greatest wizard in modern times."
Dumbledore shook his head resignedly, "I'm old and make mistakes all the time, greatness is just a kind of irony to me, I don't like this title, just like you hate the responsibility you try to impose on you. "
"No one can force me to do what I don't want to do," Harry's slender body radiated a powerful coercion, "I actually quite like this small place, and the reason why I hate you is very simple, you are too much trouble , has been disturbing my enjoyment of life." After knowing it, Harry was straightforward and cold, "Compared with other little guys, you are indeed good, but unfortunately, I don't like your overly self-righteous personality. , Nico is much better than you."
"Nico?" Dumbledore didn't care about Harry's malice, "Nico Flamel?"
"Ah, he's an interesting guy, and his wife is very nice." Harry wondered when he would go for another meal.
Dumbledore laughed suddenly, so much that he had to take off his glasses to wipe away the tears from his laughter.
"It's so funny to discover my own stupidity, please forgive my gaffe."
"The guy who dared to slice his own soul is even stupider, you don't need to be too inferior." Harry shrugged, "Honestly, since you thought he was a bad embryo from the very beginning, why didn't you kill him earlier, when he was still young When you were a bug, why did you have to make such a big detour and blind so many subordinates in vain. Are you too lonely? Or are you afraid that if there is no Dark Lord, everyone will forget you as a white wizard."
In view of the bullying and the showdown just now, Lao Longha is currently in a good mood, so this is purely a serious curiosity.
Dumbledore was embarrassed, he could sense that Harry meant it, but Dumbledore really wasn't that mean, and he wasn't that cruel.
The three views of people in the two worlds cannot overlap.
The old man sighed: "He... used to be my student..."
Harry raised his eyebrows, "Not because of empathy? You think that idiot is very similar to your ex-boyfriend."
Old Longha's tone was very flat, but Dumbledore almost knocked over the tea in his hand like being struck by lightning.
The old man froze in amazement, with trembling lips, he didn't know how to react to this guy who lightly revealed the deepest secret buried in his heart.
"Ah, I'm sorry, I thought you wizards should be used to spells like Legilimency. For me, the hearts of all people in this world are exposed. I'm sorry if I poked your sore spot. "
What can Dumbledore say, say it's okay?
Harry couldn't finish it: "I said, it's almost 100 years, even wizards, your lifespan is coming to an end. According to the novels and comics written by Muggles in your mouth, you are called a cheap and good-looking scum Man, your ex-boyfriend is really unkind, but since you are such a scumbag, he still has a crush on you. You guys are also called scumbags. It's mutual attack, how should this be called..."
Harry really thought about it seriously.
Dumbledore's old face had turned purple like his clothes, and the eyes of the bumbling portraits of previous principals on the wall of the principal's office had turned green.
This gossip is too explosive!
"Forget it, I didn't expect it." Harry gave up simply, patted his buttocks and stood up, comfortingly said to Dumbledore who had already petrified, "Don't worry, I have stayed here for several years, and the food is good , and raised several lovely children. Even if I pay the rent, I will help you solve the troubles before I leave. So you should think more about your own problems, and don't use the excuse of saving the world to anesthetize all day long. Make your own cannon fodder."
Seeing Harry staggeringly disappearing at the door of the principal's office, Dumbledore, who was in his [-]s, desperately suppressed his magic power that was about to erupt.
The portraits of previous headmasters cannot tell what they have seen and heard in the headmaster's office, but this will not delay their mutual discussion, but give Dumbledore some face, this matter can be discussed later.
Despite the huge stimulation, Dumbledore still felt some comfort in Harry's promise, but if he knew what Harry did when he bid farewell to the last world, maybe he really couldn't bear it. Maybe he rushed to Nurmengard for comfort.
The public explanation that Professor McGonagall expected from Dumbledore did not happen. He just called several of the most influential students representing different opinion groups to the headmaster's office and had a one-on-one conversation. The restless atmosphere of Mars calmed down below the cordon, and the surface calm was restored.
The time for the first match is not far away. Before the match, the players are required to check their wands.
The job was taken up by Mr. Ollivander, the monopoly of the English wand business.At the same time, the popular reporter Miss Rita Skeeter was sent by the Ministry of Magic and the "Daily Prophet" to make a special report on the Triwizard Tournament.
Ollivander was amazed at the condition of Harry's wand, "It's like it's never been used, it's incredible!"
Harry shrugged since he hadn't used it in the first place.
Contrary to everyone's expectations, Miss Rita Skeeter, who likes to use words to attract people's attention the most, reported this time so well-behaved that it didn't look like her handwriting.
She briefly mentioned Harry's entry, as if it was extremely natural for a contestant at such a young age, and didn't even mention the strange atmosphere that Hogwarts hadn't completely disappeared, as if those were all hallucinations, and she turned a blind eye to them.
Obviously, some kind of imaginable change has taken place in this lady reporter who always thinks highly of herself.
Dumbledore seemed pleased with this.
It was the kids who were purposely yelling at Harry around Rita Skeeter in hopes of seeing a public enemy on the paper, disappointed.
Anyway, here comes the first game of the Triwizard Tournament.
The students, as spectators, were brought to a wide empty court ahead of time.
Given that Harry is also the only "warrior" at Hogwarts, those ready-made banners mocking Harry were finally suppressed by the collective honor and did not appear on the sidelines of the arena.
Many people were worried about Harry, they already knew that the first competition event was extremely thrilling - it was a dragon, as long as he got involved with dragons, injuries would be the least likely.
In fact, the warriors from the other two schools already knew the competition items. After all, cheating is also a tradition, not to mention that Mrs. Maxim also used a "beauty trick".Hagrid wanted to reveal it to Harry, but he couldn't find a chance until the game started, but Harry didn't care.
Knowing that the requirement of the competition is to get a dragon egg as completely as possible through a dragon, Harry felt quite complicated.
Fleur, who was ahead of him, drew a Welsh green dragon with the number two marked on its neck.
Krum drew a bright red Chinese fireball dragon number three.
So what Harry got was the remaining Swedish Brachysaurus marked with a number one because of blue.
Harry, who used to be a dragon as a race and still believes that his soul race is still a dragon, looked at this group of biological models also called dragons, and the corner of his mouth twitched involuntarily.
The director of the Sports Department, who looks sunny and strong but sneaky, has been trying to get close to Harry.
A hopeless gambler.
One smile from Harry made him shy away like hell.
As the first player to play, Harry looked as relaxed as if he was picking up a ball in the garden.
This made the other two warriors, who were in extreme tension, look sideways, but unfortunately they had to stay in the tent until Harry finished the game.
Walking out of the tent, cheers erupted from the auditorium. Harry looked up and saw a group of little badgers screaming frantically and Slytherins applauding calmly. Come on, Harry tilted his head, took a look at Hermione and Neville beside her, turned his eyes, and saw the platinum dragon with a very ugly face.
Harry was suddenly happy.
Even the thing called "Dragon" in front of him is no longer so unpleasant.
Harry moved, and in the tense atmosphere where everyone was holding their breath, he walked towards the "monster" like a walk, without even pulling out his wand.
The hill-like silver-blue "giant dragon" spewed hot sparks from its nose, and the reptile's vertical pupils contracted nervously. Out of the instinct of a wild beast, it felt that the "little guy" in front of it was very dangerous.
Harry leisurely walked to a place about ten meters away from the Swedish Brachysaurus, stopped, and raised his head.
The midday sun made everyone miss the golden flash in Harry's eyes. The extremely abrupt, silver-blue huge body retreated a large distance in a very short time, and the heavy body raised a large area. Dust, if it didn't dare, it would even want to fly away immediately, the farther the better, as for the egg, what is it? !
In the dusty environment, Harry walked slowly over, patting the "dragon eggs" one by one like picking watermelons. When the eggs of the little dragons that were about to hatch seemed to start to tremble, Harry finally had enough of playing. That golden egg, signaled the referee, he got it.
The scene was quiet, and no one knew what method Harry used to scare one of the most dangerous beasts in the wizarding world like that.
Only Regulus shrugged slightly.
In fact, Harry just directly invaded the brain of the so-called Swedish short-nosed dragon, allowing it to see the phantom of his real body, and then politely said excuse me.
Although they are both called fish, you can understand why the little dragon runs so fast by referring to the difference between a whale and a goldfish.
The problem is, Regulus understands, Hermione and Drake understand, Lucius has been numb from the blow, Dumbledore can probably guess although he doesn't know why, and the other referees are at a loss.
Can anyone tell them how this is done?
What spell was used?Or potions?
Karkaroff and Madame Maxime turned their eyes to Dumbledore, but Ludo Bagman couldn't hide the surprise on his face.
With a clear cough, the director of the Sports Department, who hadn't entered the commentary duty at all, finally remembered his duty, "Now, please referees to score."
The body is unscathed, and the golden egg is unscathed.
Just looking at the result is perfect, but what about the process?
Dumbledore gave [-] very bachelorly, Lucius Malfoy also gave [-] grandly, Ludo Bagman followed closely behind.
Although Mrs. Maxim was very puzzled and dissatisfied with this inexplicable process, she gave it a fair eight.
When it was the last one's turn, Karkaroff frowned and seemed to be struggling, and finally he reluctantly hit a six.
This made those Hogwarts students who didn't like Harry very dissatisfied and booed everywhere.
Harry didn't care much, he patted the dust off his body, saluted the audience politely, and retreated with a golden egg in his arms.
With Harry as a comparison, the two players who appeared later were much more normal. Although the results were not satisfactory, at least everyone understood.
Even though Karkaroff had given him only a passing grade, and blatantly favored Krum, Harry's overall score was far ahead.
Visible toughness is more effective than exhaustive excuses.
Cedric, after watching the first event, was completely convinced by the conversation Harry had had with him before signing up.
The little badgers surrounded Harry, eager to know how he did all that.
Harry narrowed his eyes happily, parted his lips, and put up a finger in front of that horrifying smile. He looked like a perverted doll in a horror movie, but he still had a kind of morbid beauty.
"Shh, it's a secret."
