My Wife's Name is Luna at Hogwarts
Chapter 238 Goblet of Fire
……
After all the students entered the auditorium and took their seats at the tables in their respective houses, the faculty came in and they filed over to the guest of honor seat and sat down.
Walking last were Professor Dumbledore, Professor Karkaroff and Madam Maxime.The Beauxbatons students stood up quickly as soon as they saw their principal appear.Several Hogwarts students couldn't help but laugh.But the Beauxbatons students did not appear embarrassed at all, and it was not until Madam Maxime sat down on Dumbledore's left that they sat down again.
Dumbledore kept standing, and the auditorium gradually became quiet, "Good evening, ladies and gentlemen, and the most important distinguished guests!"
Dumbledore looked at the foreign students with a smile, "It is with great joy that I welcome you to Hogwarts. I believe that you will feel comfortable and happy here. The competition will officially begin at the end of the banquet. . But now, I invite everyone to eat and drink as much as you would at home!"
After saying that, he sat down, and Karkaroff immediately leaned forward and talked to him.
The plates in front of the little wizards were piled with food as usual. They were richer dishes than ever before. There were even some foreign dishes, presumably to cater to the tastes of the guests.
"What is this?" Luna asked, pointing to a large plate of what looked like a seafood chowder next to a large steak. Klein's mouth twitched, "I don't know, it doesn't look very delicious anyway."
Luna nodded, "Yeah, Luna feels the same way!"
"French fish soup is our French dish." At this moment, a voice said from the side, "Sorry to excuse you, don't you want to eat this fish soup?"
This is a Beauxbatons girl. She has a pair of big blue eyes and waterfall-like silver hair that hangs down to her waist.
"Yes, if you want to eat, just bring it." Rhine smiled and pushed the plate to the girl.
"Thank you, I'm Fleur Delacour." The girl said her name, and without waiting for Rhine and Luna to introduce themselves, she carefully carried the plate and returned to her seat.
……
Soon, the second dish came. Today there were many sweets that they had never seen before, which made Luna very happy. She was carefully looking at a strange, white blancmange, and then She brought it in front of her and ate it carefully.
……
When everyone had finished eating and the golden plates were wiped clean, Dumbledore stood up again. A mixture of excitement and nervousness seemed to permeate the auditorium.
"The moment has finally arrived!" Dumbledore smiled at the upturned faces. "The Triwizard Tournament is about to begin. Next, I will explain our activity procedures for this school year.
But first, please allow me to introduce two guests, because there are still some people who don’t know them. This is Mr. Crouch, Director of the International Cooperation Department of the Ministry of Magic! "
Then there was sparse applause in the auditorium, "This is Mr. Ludo, Director of the Sports Department of the Ministry of Magic."
The applause given to Ludo was much louder than that given to Crouch, perhaps because his commentary at the Quidditch World Cup was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
"Mr. Ludo and Mr. Crouch have worked tirelessly over the past few months to arrange the Triwizard Tournament." Dumbledore continued, "They will work with me, Professor Karkaroff and Mark Together with Ms. Sim, we formed a panel of judges to judge the efforts of the warriors.”
As soon as they heard the word [Warrior], the students seemed to be more attentive. Dumbledore noticed that they suddenly became silent. He smiled slightly and said loudly, "Okay, Filch, please bring up the box."
Folch walked towards Dumbledore, holding a large wooden box inlaid with jewels in his hand. The box looked very old.
The students watched with rapt attention and talked enthusiastically. George and Fred simply stood on the chairs in order to see more clearly.
After Filch carefully placed the box on the table in front of him, Dumbledore continued, "Mr. Crouch and Mr. Ludo have carefully reviewed the specific events for the Warriors competition this year. They have also given each A project made many necessary arrangements. There were three projects in total, taking place at different times throughout the school year. They would test the warriors' magical abilities, their courage, and their reasoning abilities in many different aspects. Of course , this specific process is somewhat dangerous, but we will ensure your safety."
The auditorium was still silent, as if everyone had stopped breathing and listened carefully, for fear of missing a word.
"You already know that there will be three warriors participating in the competition." Dumbledore continued to say calmly, "They each represent a participating school. We will rate them based on the quality of their completion of each competition event. After the three events are completed, , the warrior with the highest score will win the Triwizard Cup, and the person responsible for selecting the warriors is the most fair selector, which is the Goblet of Fire."
Having said this, Dumbledore pulled out his wand and tapped the lid of the box three times, and the lid was slowly opened.
Dumbledore reached inside and pulled out a huge wooden goblet.The cup itself was unremarkable at all, but it was filled with dancing blue-white flames.
Dumbledore closed the box and placed the cup on the lid so that everyone in the auditorium could see it clearly.
"Every student who wants to run for a warrior must write his name and school name on a piece of parchment and throw it into this goblet. Those who are willing to become a warrior can register within twenty-four hours. Tomorrow night, which is Halloween night, the Goblet will choose the names of the three students it thinks best represent the three schools. Tonight, the Goblet will be placed in the foyer for all students who are willing to participate in the election. Get exposed to it.”
Finally, Dumbledore said quietly, "In order to avoid the temptation of students who are not old enough, after the goblet is placed in the hall, I will draw an age line around it. No one under the age of seventeen can cross this line." Age line.
I would like to remind every student who wants to participate in the election to note that this competition is not a child's play. Do not participate rashly. Once the warrior is selected by the Goblet of Fire, he must persist in the competition to the end.Whoever throws his name into the cup actually forms a magical contract that must be observed. Once he becomes a warrior, he is not allowed to change his mind.
So please think twice before you put your name in the cup and make sure you really want to compete. Well, I think it's time for everyone to go to bed.Good night to all. "
"Age line!" Fred's eyes sparkled, "It's easy to handle. You can definitely be fooled by age-enhancing drugs, right? George? As long as you put your name into the cup, it can't tell who is under 17. age."
……
The next day is Saturday. Generally speaking, students go to have breakfast very late. However, today they got up much earlier than usual on weekends.
There were more than 20 people gathered in the foyer early, some of them were still eating bread, and they were all looking at the Goblet of Fire carefully.The cup was placed in the center of the foyer, on the stool that had once held the Sorting Hat. A thin gold line had been drawn on the floor, a circle with a radius of ten feet, surrounding the cup.
Soon one of them burst into laughter.It was Fred and George. They both looked extremely excited. "It's done right now!" Fred drank the age-enhancing agent and whispered in a proud tone.
"Are you ready?" George was shaking with excitement.
"Then, come on! I'll go in first." Frey took out a piece of parchment from his pocket and walked straight to the edge of the age line. Then, under the gaze of every pair of eyes in the hall, he sighed deeply. Take a breath and cross that line.
For a moment, everyone thought Fred had succeeded, but then they heard a hissing sound and he was thrown out of the golden coil. He fell painfully on the cold stone ground ten feet away, and then he fell to the cold stone ground ten feet away. There was a loud crack and a long white beard sprouted from his chin.
The people in the foyer roared with laughter...
"I warned you!" said a deep voice, and everyone turned their heads and saw Professor Dumbledore walking out of the auditorium.
He looked at Fred with a twinkle in his eye, "I suggest you go to Madam Pomfrey. She is already taking care of Miss Fawcett of Ravenclaw and Mr. Summers of Hufflepuff. The two of them are also determined to increase their years."
Rhine smiled and said to Dumbledore, "Professor, if I have the ability to cross the line you set, can I participate in the Triwizard Tournament?"
Dumbledore looked at Rhine meaningfully and smiled, "Of course, if you go beyond the magic I set, it proves that you are more powerful than most adult wizards, and the dangers in the competition will not matter to you. ."
With Dumbledore's permission, Klein expanded the epic realm and walked in against the age line drawn by Dumbledore. The realm and age line collided extremely fiercely, and sparks of various colors flew five meters around Klein. It bloomed outside, and all the little wizards looked at this scene in a daze.
After all, it was just a line drawn casually by Dumbledore. Although Rhine had a difficult time walking, he finally put his name into the Goblet of Fire.
……
In the evening, the decoration of the auditorium changed again, because it was Halloween. A large group of live bats flew around the enchanted ceiling. At the same time, there were hundreds of little pumpkin carvings, squinting from every corner. With everyone.
When Rhine and others entered the candlelit auditorium, it was almost full of people, and the Goblet of Fire had been moved. It was now standing on the table in front of Dumbledore.
The dinner seemed to last much longer than usual, perhaps because no one was in the mood to eat. Everyone kept looking at the Goblet of Fire, with anxious expressions on every face, wanting to know who was chosen. Warrior now.
Finally, when everyone finished eating hastily, the voices in the auditorium suddenly became quiet. Then, Dumbledore stood up and said, "Okay, the Goblet of Fire is about to make a decision. I estimate it will take another minute. Listen. "Now, after the names of the warriors are announced, I want them to walk to the front of the auditorium, walk along the staff table, and enter the room next door." He pointed to the door behind the staff table and continued, " Warriors will receive initial guidance there."
Then he took out his wand and waved it widely. Immediately, except for the candles in the jack-o'-lantern, all the other candles were extinguished, and the auditorium suddenly fell into a state of semi-darkness.
However, the Goblet of Fire emitted a dazzling light, brighter than anything in the entire auditorium. The blue-white flames bursting with sparks were simply dazzling. Everyone watched intently, and the flames in the goblet suddenly turned red again. , crackling sparks burst out.
Then, a tongue of fire jumped into the air, and a piece of burnt parchment flew out from it. Everyone in the auditorium held their breath.
Dumbledore caught the parchment and held it far away so that he could see the words on it clearly in the light of the flames. Then he said loudly, "Krum, Champion of Durmstrang."
Then applause and cheers swept the entire auditorium, and Krum stood up from the table and slouched through the door into the next room.
The applause and chatter died down, and now everyone's attention was once again focused on the goblet. After a few seconds, the flames turned red again, and a second piece of parchment jumped out of the goblet, propelled by the flames. .
"Champion of Beauxbatons, Fleur!" Dumbledore shouted again.
It was she, amidst the applause of everyone, the girl who asked Rhine and Luna for fish soup, stood up gracefully, and walked lightly from the Ravenclaw table to the compartment.
Then the auditorium fell silent again. At this time, the Goblet of Fire turned red again, tongues of fire rose high into the air, and Dumbledore pulled out the third piece of parchment from the tip of the tongues of fire.
"Hogwarts Champion, Rhine!" he said loudly, looking at Rhine with a smile.
The cheers in the auditorium were simply deafening. Students from Ravenclaw, the Illuminati, and the Shadow Cult were all screaming and cheering. Although Neville was a little disappointed because he could not participate, since Lord Rhine represented Hogwart Here are your words.He was also convinced.
Ludo and Crouch both looked at Dumbledore with strange expressions. Dumbledore smiled and explained to them, "Don't worry, you two. Although Rhine is not old enough, he has gone through the magic I set. In the competition, projects pose no threat to him."
Ludo immediately shook his head, "No! Of course we are not worried about him, the main thing is...Dumbledore, do you really want him to be a brave man?"
Crouch also echoed, "This is so bullying..."
Seeing Karkaroff and Maxim listening to them in confusion, Crouch twitched the corner of his mouth and did not explain. Anyway, winning is the honor of their country. If you bully others, you can bully others.
