Chapter 892 The first project ends
Krum's low score caused dissatisfaction among some Quidditch fans, but the four referees collectively gave it seven points. He is not Albert, and he does not have so many supporters, and Bagman's explanation is fine. .
Krum scrapped the nest of dragon eggs, and dragon eggs are very precious, so it is normal for some points to be deducted.
"Okay, let us welcome the last warrior, the youngest warrior ever, Harry Potter from Hogwarts." Bagman shouted happily.
However, after Harry Potter entered the arena, the auditorium was enveloped in a chaotic noise. Some spectators began to curse Harry with vicious words, and some people threw things towards the arena.
If Albert is the most popular warrior, then Harry is the least popular warrior.
"Oh my God, don't do this," Bagman screamed, trying to stop people from throwing things at Harry.
"When did Potter become so unpopular?" Albert was a little surprised at the savior's bad reputation.
"This matter is mainly related to Slytherin." Lee Jordan said helplessly when he heard Albert's words, "Those guys deliberately aroused everyone's envy and jealousy towards Harry, and they even distributed 'Haha' to everyone for free." Badge of Stinky Poo'. Actually, they also want to discredit you, but you have too many supporters, so you have to give up in the end."
Speaking of the changes in Hogwarts, no one knows better than Lee Jordan, who likes to inquire about gossip news.
"Most people are not idiots who don't know right from wrong." Albert really had a hard time understanding what those people were thinking, "Could it be that they believe what others say?"
"Don't tell me, there are quite a few people like this." Lee Jordan was a little embarrassed when he talked about this matter. He used to be like this, but after becoming friends with Albert, he began to learn to think proactively. He knew very well that most of the students were just jealous of Harry and heckling with everyone.
Many times, it is the Slytherin students who take the lead in making troubles, including throwing things on the field now, which is also a good thing they do.
I don't know whose boots landed at Harry Potter's feet with a "snap", and an inexplicable embarrassment suddenly shrouded the playing field.
"A student of Slytherin?" Albert murmured, "It's indeed their style. If it were me, I would probably hang up the guy with the badge for two days first!"
Katrina looked at Harry Potter holding his wand on the field, frowned and asked, "What is Potter doing, is he casting some kind of magic, it seems to have no effect, is it too nervous that the magic won't work?"
"It didn't fail. What he used just now should be the Flying Curse."
"Flying Curse, how do you know." Several people around cast inquiring gazes at Albert.
"Probably summoning my own broomstick. I have thought about using that tactic." Albert took some popcorn from a paper cup and threw it into his mouth. Of course he would not say that this was his idea for Harry. .
"Then why don't you use it yourself?" Katrina asked curiously, she knew that Albert was also a very good ball seeker.
The reason why Albert gave up using the broomstick was more because he was worried that Sweeping Six Stars would not fly fast enough. If he also has a Firebolt, he certainly wouldn't mind riding a broomstick to easily pass the dragon to get the golden egg.
"Harry Potter got on his broomstick and flew!" Bagman shouted loudly from the referee's seat, "As the youngest warrior, Harry is undoubtedly at a disadvantage compared to other warriors, but he used I use my own clever mind to make up for the shortcomings and give full play to my own advantages."
Just as Bagman was yelling, Harry easily dodged the breath of the Hungarian Horntail amidst everyone's exclamations and screams.
"My God, he flies so well!" cried Bagman. "Did you see that, Mr. Krum?"
Above the playing field, Harry was carrying out his plan step by step, hovering over the Hungarian Horntail, throwing a Stunning Charm at it. The Hungarian Horntail must be lured away from the nest, otherwise he will never have access to the eggs.
The trick is to keep harassing it. The fire dragon has always been very irritable, so he must not be able to bear the provocation and come to chase him, and the opportunity will come.
The Hungarian Horntail was forced too hard, and opened its mouth to breathe towards Harry again, but Harry deftly dodged it again.
The fire dragon roared angrily, spread its wings and chased after Harry, but it didn't know that it had been fooled.
When the Hungarian Horntail left the nest to chase Harry, it was led by Harry riding a Firebolt to slide around the sky. When the time came, Harry suddenly accelerated and dived towards the dragon's nest.
As Harry skims over the nest, he manages to get the golden egg.
"Look!" Bagman hissed, "Look! Our youngest warrior has successfully obtained the golden egg!"
The entire competition field suddenly boiled up, people were shouting, screaming, applauding, and the sound was deafening.
However, Harry, who was dazzled by joy, didn't realize that the Hungarian Horntail had come after him.
Seeing that damned thief dared to steal her eggs, the Hungarian Horntail was extremely angry. The dragon's breath almost burned the oncoming Harry to ashes, and almost ignited the fork of the Firebolt.
This time, Harry paid the price for his negligence. Although he avoided the oncoming breath, he couldn't escape the head-on tail of the Hungarian Horntail.
A long spike from the Hungarian Horntail's tail dug into Harry's shoulder, soaking his robes with blood.
Harry felt a sharp pain in his shoulder, but his legs still held the Firebolt tightly, preventing him from falling. His ears were filled with screams from the audience, and he was in a trance for a moment, then accelerated again, throwing off the Hungarian Horntail who was trying to attack again.
The dragon trainers have rushed over one after another, trying to appease the Horntail's anger.
Harry looked at the Hungarian Horntail that was entangled by the dragon trainers, and couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, and began to descend towards the entrance of the venue.
He still has lingering fears, and the wound on his shoulder is very deep. If the wound was at that time... he was too careless, otherwise he would not have been injured at all.
However, I finally passed the first project and survived successfully.
After Harry landed smoothly to the ground, Professor McGonagall, Hagrid, Sirius and Lupine hurried over to meet him.
"Okay, I have something to say later, Potter now needs to go to the emergency tent to find Madam Pomfrey." Professor McGonagall loudly interrupted what several people were about to say, and led Harry towards the emergency tent.
The first aid tent was near the entrance of the venue. Madam Pomfrey was standing at the entrance of the tent. After discovering that Harry was injured, she pulled him into the tent for treatment.
Madam Pomfrey completely cured Harry's serious injuries in just a few minutes. For a healer, ordinary injuries can be healed easily with magic. Injuries caused by magic.
"You succeeded Harry." Sirius walked into the medical tent and said to Harry, "It would be better if you could be careful in the end."
"Okay Sirius, it would be great if Harry can complete the first project." Lupine didn't have much thought. Harry's safety was more important to him.
"I really got carried away in the end." Harry carefully checked the healing of his wound, and reflected on himself, "I should have been more careful."
"Harry, it's great of you!"
Ron and Hermione hurried into the medical tent, and were relieved to see that Harry was fine.
"Okay, let's go and see your score." Sirius noticed Madam Pomfrey's gaze, smiled and motioned everyone to go to the stage to watch the final score.
"Harry, you had a chance to get full marks." Ron said regretfully, "However, you got injured in the end, so some points will probably be deducted."
"Anyone got full marks?" Harry asked, raising his eyebrows.
"Albert got full marks." Hermione said with admiration, "He easily subdued the fire dragon in just a few minutes."
"Subdued the dragon?" Harry repeated.
"Literally." Sirius comforted, "You don't need to compare with him, that guy is not a student at all, he came to participate in the Triwizard Tournament purely to bully others."
After the group of them returned to the stands, Harry noticed that the people around him were looking at him with complicated eyes. He ignored the others and turned his eyes to the referee's seat, only to find that Karkaroff was no longer there.
Probably sensing Harry's puzzled gaze, Hermione recounted Karkaroff's terrible things and the previous confusion.
Harry couldn't help but widen his eyes. It was hard to imagine that someone would lose their face in order to win. Karkaroff was kicked out of the referee's seat, purely on his own accord.
Harry's final score was 45 points, Bagman gave 10 points, Dumbledore and Crouch gave 9 points, and Madam Maxim gave 8 points.
"I'm glad that the first project has ended successfully." Bagman cleared his throat and said, "Now, please come to the tent, the warriors. I have something to say to the warriors."
"Bagman probably wants to talk about the second project."
Albert glanced at the golden egg in his hand. He remembered that it seemed that this thing had to be submerged in water to hear the secrets hidden in the golden egg clearly.
"Then I'll go back first." Isobel kissed Albert's cheek and said, "Your college will probably hold a celebration banquet, so you'd better not be absent."
"Ask Bit to send the photos to my dormitory." Albert reminded.
Looking at the back of Albert leaving, Isobel turned his head to Katrina and said, "You don't mind walking with me!"
"Is there something wrong?" Katrina raised her eyebrows.
"We sisters haven't had a good chat for a long time." Isobel motioned to Katrina while walking.
Albert didn't know about the topic of the McDougal sisters' chat. When he came to the tent, everyone was already waiting for him in the tent.
"Everyone is here," said Ludo Bagman cheerfully. "I have only a few words to say."
"First of all, you all did a great job!"
"And the second project will start at 9:30 am on February 24 next year." Ludo Bagman took the golden egg in Albert's hand and specially gave some hints to the warriors, "Before that , you can rest for a long time, so we left you a riddle, as long as you solve the clues in the egg, you will know what the second item is and prepare in advance!"
Riddles?
Harry looked at Albert suspiciously. He felt that this man didn't need to solve the puzzle at all. He only needed to look at his crystal ball to easily figure out what the second item was.
After Bagman signaled that they could leave, Krum did not leave immediately, but walked directly to Albert.
"I'm sorry about Karkaroff, but that's his personal opinion and doesn't represent Durmstrang." Krum kicked all the problems on Karkaroff directly, " To be honest, a lot of people don't understand how he became the principal."
"Well, then you don't need to spend any more time understanding the reason. Karkaroff will soon cease to be your principal." Albert said calmly.
Krum was a little dazed, and still didn't understand what he meant.
When Albert walked out of the tent, only Shanna was waiting for him outside.
What about them?
"We are exchanging coins for everyone, and those three guys took this opportunity to make a lot of money." Shanna said with a smile, "You look so handsome in this outfit."
"Thanks, let's go back!"
"Is that golden egg part of the competition?" Shanna noticed the golden egg in Albert's hand and asked curiously.
"Yes, this is a riddle." Albert handed the golden egg to Shanna and said, "It is used to pass the time for the warriors."
"I dare say the riddle can't help you." Shanna made an open gesture.
"At the celebration banquet tonight, a golden egg will definitely be opened, and it will definitely surprise everyone." Albert said meaningfully.
"Surprise, I'm looking forward to it." Shanna waited for the surprise that Albert said at the celebration banquet in the evening.
The inside of the golden egg is empty and there is nothing, but as long as it is opened, there will be a terrifying, shrill scream from inside.
"Is this the surprise you said?" Shanna raised her glass angrily, and lightly touched the glass in Albert's hand.
"Isn't it a surprise?" Albert joked with a smile.
"You already knew?" Shanna raised her eyebrows and asked, "What is that sound, the performance of the ghost band?"
"That should be the singing of the murlocs."
"Murloc singing?" Shanna's eyes widened in disbelief. "I bet no one would hire their singer."
"That's not the point." Albert took a sip of butter beer, looked at Hermione and asked, "Is there something wrong, Hermione?"
"The second object is in the water?" Hermione asked.
"To be precise, it should be in the lake." Albert corrected.
"You are very generous, I dare say she will tell Potter this secret." Shanna reminded.
"Anyway, everyone is cheating. They will figure out the secret of the golden egg sooner or later." Albert didn't care. He actually let Hermione know on purpose. If possible, he didn't want little Barty to get the Marauder's Map .
