My Wife's Name is Luna at Hogwarts
Chapter 231 Death Eaters Arrive
……
Mr. Weasley led the way. Everyone held the shopping in their hands and walked quickly into the woods along the path illuminated by lanterns. They walked in the woods for twenty minutes, talking and laughing loudly, and finally Coming out of the other side of the woods...
When they came out, they found themselves in the shadow of a huge stadium.Only part of the magnificent golden wall surrounding the arena can be seen here, and it would not be a problem to fit ten cathedrals inside the arena.
"It can accommodate [-] spectators." Mr. Weasley said with some pride. "For this purpose, five hundred staff from the Ministry of Magic have been busy for a whole year.
Every inch of this place has been cast with a Muggle-repelling spell. During this year, whenever a Muggle approaches this place, they will suddenly remember their urgent matters and walk away in a hurry. May God bless them. "
As he spoke, he led everyone towards the nearest entrance, where many shouting wizards were already gathered.
"First class tickets!" The Ministry of Magic wizard at the entrance looked at their tickets and said, "Top box! Go all the way upstairs, Arthur, to the top."
…………
The stairs leading to the stadium were covered with purple-red carpets. They went up the stairs with the crowd, and slowly the crowds entered the stands on the left and right sides respectively.
Mr. Weasley led the group of them straight up, and finally reached the top of the stairs and came to a small box, located at the highest point of the stadium, facing the golden goal post.
There are about twenty purple and gilded chairs, divided into two rows.Everyone lined up with Mr. Weasley and sat in the front row, looking down...
One hundred thousand wizards were seen taking their seats one after another. Those seats were arranged in a staircase shape around the oval stadium.
Everything here was shrouded in a mysterious golden light, which seemed to come from the stadium itself. From their commanding position, the field looked as smooth as velvet.
There was no one in the box yet, so Harry took out the panoramic telescope Rhine bought for him and started to adjust it. He looked at the crowd on the other side of the stadium.
Hermione was eagerly leafing through her fringed velvet-covered competition manual.
"There will be a performance by the team mascot before the game." She read aloud.
"Oh! That might be good?" Klein became interested and smiled.
……
As they talked, in the next half hour, the box they were in gradually filled up with people. Mr. Weasley kept shaking hands with people. Those people looked like wizards with high status.
Everyone was stunned when Cornelius Fudge greeted Rhine like an old friend.
Fudge held Rhine's hand like an old friend, talked to him, and introduced him to the wizard sitting next to him.
"Rhine, as you all know, is the boy who killed Voldemort twice," he shouted to the Bulgarian Minister of Magic.
As soon as the Bulgarian Minister of Magic saw Rhine, he immediately pointed at him excitedly and muttered a series of words loudly.
Fudge said to Klein tiredly. "I'm not very good at languages, Rhine, you should be able to understand what he's saying."
Klein smiled and shook his head, "He was telling us that our British Ministry of Magic is really powerful!"
Fudge was visibly excited, "Really? That would be great."
After a while, when Lucius passed by the Minister of Magic, he stretched out his hand and said, "Hello, Fudge, uh... and Rhine."
He saw Klein with a complicated expression, as if he had a lot to say.
"Hello, hello!" said Fudge, smiling as he also introduced him to the Bulgarian Minister of Magic.
Then Ludo walked into the box and asked, "Is everyone ready?" he said, his round face shining, "Minister, may I start?"
"Start as you say, Ludo." Fudge said nonchalantly.
Ludo drew his wand, pointed at his throat and said, "Resonant!"
Then his words resounded like thunder throughout the packed stadium.His voice echoed above them and carried loudly to every corner of the stands.
"Ladies and gentlemen! Welcome! Welcome to watch the 422nd Quidditch World Cup!"
The audience then burst into cheers and applause. Tens of thousands of flags were waved at the same time, accompanied by the chaotic national anthem. The scene was really lively.The huge blackboard opposite them showed the words [Bulgaria: 0, Ireland: 0].
"Okay, without further ado, please allow me to introduce...the mascot of the Bulgarian national team!" Ludo said, and a neat bright red square formation on the right side of the stands burst into loud cheers.
Then I saw a hundred Veela sliding towards the arena. Their skin was as bright as the moon, and their hair was flying in the wind. At the same time, the music started playing, the Veela began to dance, and people's minds went blank. I just feel an extreme joy. Nothing in the world matters anymore, as long as I can keep looking at the Veela!
But the dance always ends, and the stadium is filled with angry roars, and people don't want the Veela to leave.
Then Ludo's voice rang like a bell, "Now, please don't get excited, please raise your wand in the air and welcome the mascot of the Irish national team!"
Then, with a whooshing sound, a huge green and gold thing flew into the stadium, like a big comet.It flew around the stadium before splitting into two smaller comets, heading toward one set of goal posts.
An arched rainbow suddenly appeared across the entire field, connecting the two big shining balls.The crowd erupted in oohs and aahs, as if they were watching a fireworks display.
At this time, the rainbow disappeared, and the big shining balls connected and blended with each other to form a huge, shining clover, which rose high into the air and began to hover above the sky.Something crackled down from above, like golden raindrops.
"It's the Leprechaun!" said Mr. Weasley to cheers.While people were cheering, they were still scrambling for money, or getting under the seats to pick up gold coins.
"Here you go!" Ron happily put a handful of gold coins into Klein's hand, "to pay back your panoramic telescope."
Klein's mouth twitched as he looked at it, and he tore open the gold coin handed over by Ron. Sure enough, there was a large piece of chocolate inside.
Under Ron's dull gaze, Klein pushed the gold coin chocolate in front of Luna. Luna ate it with a "ouch".
Soon, the giant clover disappeared, and the leprechauns slowly fell to the opposite side of the Veela on the field, sitting down with their legs crossed, preparing to watch the game.
"And now, ladies and gentlemen, please give me a warm welcome, the Bulgarian Quidditch National Team!"
Then, figures in red clothes riding on broomsticks flew into the arena from an entrance below. They flew so fast that they could hardly be seen clearly.
"Now, please welcome the Irish Quidditch national team!" Ludo's voice shouted loudly again!
Then seven blurry green figures flew towards the arena, their broomsticks all had Firebolts printed on them.
"Finally, there is our referee today, the well-supported President of the International Quidditch Federation who flew all the way from Egypt!!"
Then, a short and thin wizard wearing a pure golden robe matching the color of the stadium strode onto the field. The top of his head was on full display, but his big beard was comparable to Dumbledore's beard.
As he blew his whistle, the game began. The speed of the players was simply unbelievable. The chasers kept passing the Quaffle to other players so fast that the naked eye could not keep up.
The two sides attack and defend each other, and the game becomes more and more intense and cruel.The Bulgarian batsmen worked hard, hammering bludgers towards the Irish Chasers and trying to prevent some of their best attacks.
Soon the Golden Snitch appeared, and the Hundred Thousand Wizards held their breaths and watched the two Seekers following their fall, squinting their eyes to look for the Golden Snitch, but neither party caught it.
After another 15 intense minutes, the Irish team scored ten more goals in succession. After they now led 130:10, the game began to become unscrupulous. The Bulgarian players continued to use foul actions to step on the line to score.
There were angry shouts from the Irish audience, and the game reached its most ferocious intensity.The batsmen on both sides showed no mercy.
Finally, after a dangerous dive, Krum fell to the ground, with spots of nosebleeds shining on his bright red robe.
He rose lightly into the air, raised his fist high, and a golden light appeared between his fingers. He caught the golden snitch. The Bulgarian team added 150 points and the game ended.
But the final scores flashed on the scoreboard: Bulgaria: 160, Ireland: 170!They still couldn't win.
Slowly, the chatter from the Irish supporters grew louder and louder, and finally broke out into countless shouts of joy.
"The Irish team won! Klum caught the Golden Snitch, but the Irish team won - God, I don't think anyone expected it to end like this!"
"Why did he go to catch the Golden Snitch at this time?" Hermione asked loudly in confusion even though she was jumping up and down and cheering. "He ended the game when the Irish team was 160 points ahead. How stupid he was!"
Klein smiled faintly, "Because he knows that if he continues, the score will only get bigger and bigger. He will gamble in the future whether he catches the snitch first or the Irish team scores first."
………………
In the stadium, Krum's face became very gloomy. He refused to let the doctor clean his wounds and wipe away the blood. His teammates also gathered around him, shaking their heads and looking dejected.
Nearby, Ireland's players danced with joy, their mascot showering them with gold coins, flags waving around the stadium and the Irish national anthem blaring from all directions.
The Veela returned to their original beautiful appearance, but each one looked downcast and frowning.
……
"Let us applaud warmly and welcome the Bulgarian players who are proud to be defeated to the stage!" Ludo shouted.
The seven defeated Bulgarians went upstairs to the box.The audience below applauded and cheered to show their appreciation.
One by one, the Bulgarian team members walked between the two rows of seats in the box and took turns shaking hands with their ministers and Fudge.
The Irish players took the stage next, and the audience burst into thunderous applause.
Finally, the Irish team left the box and rode their brooms around the field.
Soon, people began to leave the stadium and return to the camp, and the gruff singing of the leprechauns came from the night sky. They kept flying back and forth above their heads, waving the lanterns in their hands, and laughing.
Finally, we finally arrived at the tent, but no one wanted to sleep, so everyone started arguing about the game just now.
.........
Suddenly, something changed. Just for a moment, the originally noisy crowd began to scream in fear, and the sound in the camp changed.
The singing stopped, screams and the sounds of people running in panic appeared everywhere, and everyone ran towards the woods, as if to escape something moving towards them in the camp.
The thing shone strangely and made a sound like a gun. Loud jeers, wild laughter, and drunken shouts also moved towards them.
Then, a bright green light flashed, illuminating everything in the night sky.
A group of wizards huddled tightly together, each pointing their wands upward, pushing forward together, moving slowly around the field, their heads covered with hoods and their faces covered with masks.
Above their heads, four struggling figures bound by the miserable green light emitted by their wands floated in the air. They were twisted into various weird shapes, as if these masked wizards on the ground were puppets. People, then there was just a "snap" sound, and the four people exploded into countless irregular pieces of meat.
More black-robed hooded wizards joined their advancing team, laughing loudly and pointing at the broken bodies on the ground. As the procession continued to grow, the tents were collapsed.Their wands continuously shoot lasers of various colors, burning everything, killing everything, and destroying everything. They have a name that makes all wizards fearful. They are called Death Eaters.
"We want to help the ministry maintain order!" Mr. Weasley's voice drowned out the noise, while rolling up his sleeves, "You go into the woods quickly, walk together, hide and don't spread out, wait for something to happen I'll come find you after we solve the problem!" Staff from the Ministry of Magic also rushed to the scene of the accident from all directions.
The colorful lights that had illuminated the path to the stadium were now extinguished, and some dark figures stumbled through the woods. Children were crying, and nervous shouts and voices echoed in the cold night air around them.Everyone was pushed around by the crowd, but they couldn't see the faces of the people around them clearly.
