Chapter 817：

The centaur swung the rope made of vines, threw it in a circle towards the guy, and successfully wrapped it around his neck and arms.

It's a pity that the centaurs have forgotten that in the face of absolute power, the wisdom of catching wild beasts has no effect.

I saw the guy in armor, motionless as a mountain, even though the centaur's hooves were digging a hole in the ground, it didn't help.

He moved his hands, and the rope, together with the restrained centaur, flew into the pool under the waterfall where the unicorns lived.

Then he made a savage charge, grabbed a black-haired centaur and rushed him all the way, knocking the centaur lineup to pieces.

After taking care of the centaur, the guy looked up to the sky and roared.

The sound startled the birds in the forest.

Hagrid didn't understand what it meant, but John did.

"Who else-!"

John silently looked at the guy, with skin and armor like dragon scales.

The pattern like daffodils made John recognize the origin of this guy.

Star Spirit Guards.

Xiaolong.

John covered his face in discomfort.

He knew that Xiao Long's personality was exactly the same as Malfoy's, and sooner or later he would cause big disturbances in Hogwarts.

I just didn’t expect that Xiaolong would become a public enemy of the entire Forbidden Forest just a short time ago.

John also understood why Hagrid's expression was complicated.

​​Probably he recognized this guy’s identity.

As the Creator, John can only say that not all Star Spirit Guards have this virtue.

Only Xiaolong is so unruly.

"Okay, I'll solve this problem."

John looked at the mud and weeds on Hagrid’s body, and he probably had experienced being thrown out.

Walking out of the peeping woods, John walked towards Xiaolong with a dark face.

Initially, the little dragon was arrogantly trying to see which blind guy it was, but when it saw that it was its creator, it immediately retracted into a star spirit and ran over.

"Biliba bang."

John glanced at the embarrassing environment and looked at the little guy with difficulty in speaking.

"How can you become a public enemy if you are asked to protect magic?"

Sighing, John picked up the little dragon and said to the group of beaten centaurs: "If there is nothing serious for you, I will take it away to talk."

When the centaurs who originally wanted to settle accounts with Xiaolong saw John, they suddenly lost their temper.

Said that Xiaolong can be let go today.

John felt that he needed to find a fixed place for Xiaolong to stay, otherwise the entire Forbidden Forest would suffer.

After a period of time in the Forbidden Forest, the scales on the little dragon's body tended to be black.

This allows the dragon to hide better in the dark.

The Star Spirit Guardian is constantly changing with the environment. According to the environment of the Forbidden Forest, Xiaolong has been greatly improved.

From Hagrid, John also knew what happened after Xiaolong came to the Forbidden Forest.

Originally, Hagrid took the punished students to patrol the Forbidden Forest on a daily basis, but Xiaolong taunted him and teased the students, making them think they had encountered some monster.

And he completely attracted hatred, slapping his golden butt, making the students in solitary confinement itch with hatred.

In just two months since school started, Hogwarts has issued a reward for the golden man in the Forbidden Forest.

Astoria also knew about this, and she was embarrassed to reveal Xiaolong's identity.

Listening to Hagrid talk about the serious crime he committed, Xiaolong put his hands on his hips, not only not ashamed, but also very proud.

The air of arrogance made John feel like he was holding a Malfoy.

"There are still some animals that have been plucked in the Forbidden Forest." Hagrid said, "Last time, they were kicked away by Weiwei."

When this matter was mentioned, the little dragon's original air of dignity suddenly disappeared. It jumped on its feet and chattered.

The general meaning is that he did not lose, but Weiwei wore the necklace so that he could not notice it.

The necklace Wei Wei is wearing was given by John. It can only be said that Xiaolong is asking for trouble.

Since it came to the Forbidden Forest, it has basically messed with everyone, whether humans or ghosts.

If John hadn't arrived in time, Xiaolong would have been organized into a team to defeat him.

Even Slughorn began to consider whether to expel the dragon after hearing about his deeds.

When John heard this, he had no choice but to say earnestly to Xiaolong: "Your duty is to protect this place. I know you are boring, but I can introduce you to an interesting friend."

"Interesting?" Hagrid shouted, "He's the only bad guy I've ever seen who can rival Peeves."

"Ahem, Xiaolong is actually still young."

John didn't know why, but he suddenly felt like a parent.

Xiaolong, this naughty kid, is causing hatred everywhere because he is too bored.

In the past, he had a group of protoss brothers and sisters chasing and playing with him, but now he is the only protoss in the Forbidden Forest and can only find other magical animals to play with.

Because the power is too great and there is a language barrier.

This made every friendly play by Xiaolong end up being chased.

John needs to find him a rough-skinned friend, or someone who can teach him how to really play.

…

Peeves, who was thinking about how to play a prank, found a black line stopping in front of him.

He suspected that this was some student's revenge. He looked around and found no student, so he touched it out of curiosity, and the black thread instantly wrapped around his hand.

A force came from his arm and dragged him away alive.

Peeves yelled, and the students thought he was playing another prank.

After all, in Hogwarts, no one can hurt Peeves.

The body was dragged to a door. John opened the door and looked at Peeves with a frightened face.

"Long time no see, Peeves." John had a smile on his face, which reminded Peeves of the things he had done to offend John before.

Shivering, Peeves quickly flew up, took off his hat and said very respectfully: "Oh, dear Mr. Wick, is there anything I can do for you?"

He was just being polite. After all, the great Witch King didn't need Peeves' help.

But this time, he thought wrong.

"I really need one thing from you." John's smile became even brighter, "I think you don't mind having another prank partner."

Xiaolong walked into Hogwarts with steps that he didn't recognize his relatives.

Peeves was shocked when he saw this.

"Just from meeting him, I can confirm that this is a unique and annoying person."

Peeves's eyes shone, he came over, took off his hat and saluted: "Please allow Peeves to pay respects to the nuisance."

Xiaolong waved his hands and put his hands on his hips.

With such an attitude, Peeves has only seen the top one on the most hated list.

It's a pity that Malfoy is not a ghost and can't play pranks with him.

However, the appearance of Xiaolong made Peeves see that in the future, those students would definitely be in bad luck.

John found a new friend for Xiao Long. Although he was a little naughty, Peeves would not do anything to harm Hogwarts.

The individual competition was about to begin in the afternoon, and John went to the arena to watch.

…

Chapter 826 Individual competition, separation

In the afternoon, magic knowledge reserve competition, individual competition.

Each school sends a player to participate in the battle.

This is a crucial game that tests one's knowledge reserve ability.

Wagadu sent Tub, who can turn into an elephant, and Hogwarts sent Astoria to fight.

This game is of great importance. The total score plus the team competition score will determine the real winner of this magic knowledge reserve competition.

In addition to bonus rewards, the image broadcast throughout the magical world can greatly increase the students' popularity.

This is much more lively than the previous Triwizard Tournament.

Professor McGonagall is still the examiner of this competition.

The excellent Professor McGonagall has a trustworthy and impartial heart. She will not favor her students, nor will she deliberately make things difficult for other students.

Starting from the first question, it was very intense.

Nine out of ten sparks hit the target. In the end, Wagadu grabbed the right to answer the question and got five points.

Wagadu, who was originally number one, once again left his opponent behind.

Other students are also gearing up.

But Astoria chose other tactics.

She did not answer the question as actively as other students at the beginning.

Instead, listen carefully to the question.

After forty questions passed, the Defense Against the Dark Arts question appeared, and Astoria knew that the opportunity had come.

Since all the students in the front were competing for questions, almost every student used forty sparks.

This greatly reduces the accuracy of students with poor physical strength.

Astoria, on the other hand, was almost at full health, and she began to use monopoly-style answers to the following questions.

​And her answers were almost correct.

Hogwarts, which originally did not participate in answering the previous questions, fell behind to the last place.

As Astoria exerted her strength, she caught up at the last place and reached second place with the momentum of a dark horse.

Wagadu, who ranked first, also discovered this problem. After failing to answer several questions in a row, he regained his accuracy and answered the questions in a targeted manner.

The scores of the two were constantly chasing each other, and by the last ten questions, Astoria's original advantage was gone.

After reacting, the students rushed to answer the last ten questions.

"Ding."

A student from Ban Ade got the right to answer the question, but what was embarrassing was that he answered it wrong.

The right to answer the question was up for grabs again, and this time it was won by the Tarot Magic Vocational and Technical School.

Li Erya decisively gave the answer, bringing the score to third place.

The last nine questions.

The difficulty also becomes greater.

Even if you hit it, you may not be able to answer it.

Some questions can even be answered by professors.

John raised his eyebrows. It seemed that Slughorn really put a lot of thought into this.

But after thinking about it for himself, it seemed that there was a high probability that the people in the Alchemy Department could answer these questions.

It shouldn’t be that difficult, right?
