Today is the day Durmstrang and Beauxbatons came to Hogwarts. Hogwarts has been filled with anticipatory joy since the morning. At 5:30 in the afternoon, the get out of class bell rang half an hour earlier, and the little wizards quickly ran back to the lounges of their respective colleges, put away their schoolbags and textbooks, put on their school robes, and then happily ran to the hall to gather.
It is not only the students who are excited, but also the teachers of the school. This is the first time in a hundred years that Hogwarts has been visited by teachers and students from other wizarding schools, and there is no room for sloppiness. The professors swept the castle thoroughly, polishing every piece of armor to a lustrous finish. Those dirty and dilapidated classrooms have also been properly dealt with. If they can be cleaned up, they will be cleaned up. If they cannot be cleaned up, the door will be sealed. Even the oil paintings in the castle were not spared. Those dirty oil paintings were all refreshed and turned into a brand-new state.
For the arrival of the other two schools, Hogwarts has shown a very high degree of importance. The deans of the four major colleges organized their college teams in the foyer ahead of time before taking the students to the lawn in front of the castle gate.
"Weasley, straighten your hat!"
"Padma, take that strange thing off your head."
"Hannah, my dear, can you change places with Susan?"
"When the teachers and students from the other two schools arrive, I hope you will keep quiet and don't embarrass me or Slytherin..."
After lining up the phalanx, the deans nervously ordered the students in their academies to dress up properly, and even Snape personally arranged for the Slytherin team to be more orderly.
Professor Flitwick walked back and forth twice, frowning, "Where's Tom Yodel? Has anyone seen him?"
He turned twice, but he didn't see Tom, and he didn't know where the guy went.
Flitwick's blood pressure began to rise: Why did Tom disappear at this critical moment? Did you eat a bad stomach?
Professor Flitwick was so impatient, not because Ravenclaw Academy would have no cards without Tom, but because he was worried that he would rush over and disrupt everyone's formation at a critical moment.
Fortunately, within a few minutes, Tom appeared at the entrance of the castle hall with a slender staff in his hand.
"Great, Yodel!" Professor Flitwick breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Tom appear, but the next second he was caught by the staff in Tom's hand.
"Yordle, what are you doing with this thing?" Professor Flitwick screamed, "Put it away!"
"Don't be nervous, Filius, that's what I asked him to bring, and maybe I'll have him perform a show for the guests later." Dumbledore appeared behind Professor Flitwick at some point, his eyes on Tom He swiped over the wand in his hand, and the corner of his mouth twitched—the wand maker actually did such a work, which is really unbelievable.
Everyone has a time when they are young and frivolous, Dumbledore sighed in his heart. While sighing in his heart, Dumbledore was not idle, and directly greeted Tom to come forward and stand in the front row of the phalanx.
The conversation between Dumbledore and Professor Flitwick attracted the attention of countless little wizards, but due to the power of the two, no one dared to talk to each other. after all.
It was already evening, and the sun was sinking in the west, leaving behind a red light all over the sky, reflecting on the water surface of the Black Lake, making the entire lake seem to be on fire.
Such a splendid beauty, but Tom had no luck.
"How long do we have to wait?" Tom's patience disappeared after the third mosquito was killed.
"Five minutes to six." Harry, who was standing diagonally behind him, glanced at his watch and told Tom the time.
"Ah..." Tom sighed and continued to fight against mosquitoes.
Standing in the field by the lake is to provide a buffet for mosquitoes. Under the harassment of mosquitoes, the little wizards around were also a little impatient, and the voice of discussion gradually sounded in the team.
"How do you think they will come? By train?"
"Maybe it's a broomstick?"
"Apparition and Portkey are also very likely."
Listening to their conversation, Tom rolled his eyes: Hogwarts cannot Apparate, and the two schools are collective actions, so "public transportation" must be used. Tom looked into the sky, thinking that if nothing else happened, Beauxbatons should have come in a carriage, and Durmstrang in the ghost ship.
When everyone gets together, they can't help showing off.
Isn't he standing here now to show off to Hogwarts?
Just as everyone was thinking about it, Dumbledore glanced at Tom and said loudly: "The representative of Beauxbatons has come!"
Tom was refreshed and clenched the staff in his hand. Just as he was about to refill his wand, Dumbledore quietly slipped a small stick into his hand.
Tom looked down, and I made a big slot. From the appearance, this wand looks a lot like the legendary elder wand!
The elder wand is one of the three deathly holy weapons in the magic world. It is a wand that can make the master invincible. It can display great mana during a duel, and the holder can easily cast powerful magic. .
Dumbledore winked at Tom I'm just borrowing it from you for a while, remember to return it to me later. "
Tom: ...
As for? In order to save face for Hogwarts, you actually took out the Elder Wand? ! However, with Dumbledore's character, it is not very unexpected to do such a thing, which is unexpected but reasonable.
He looked at the wand in his hand, and this was the first time he had come close to this legendary wand.
[Elder Wand (Halloween): 15 inches, elder, Thestral tail feathers
Fit: 1%
According to legend, it was made by the **** of death. It is one of the three holy weapons. It can greatly strengthen the power of magic spells, but it must be approved by the magic wand before it can be fully mastered.
Owner: Dumbledore]
This wand was extremely slender, with bumps one after another on the surface. It was cold in his hand, and Tom could clearly feel the wand's resistance.
Tom shook his head and handed the wand back.
"It won't fit on the staff."
This time it was Dumbledore's turn to fall silent, and Tom's answer was very unexpected.
Who would have thought that someone would refuse to use the legendary Elder Wand for such a bizarre reason?
Tom's reason for refusing to use the elder wand is also very simple. The grooves on his wand are made according to his own wand measuring wand. . Pushing it in will turn the groove into the shape of the Elder Wand, preventing the original wand from fitting perfectly. As for the oddly low degree of fit, it's not a priority.
