v4 Chapter 75: Buckbeak

He was preparing for this project a long time ago. He believes that the "gift" he has carefully prepared will definitely surprise the warriors. So when the volunteers were brought to the edge of the Forbidden Forest, Tom raised his hand and gestured to Professor Flitwick.

"Is something wrong, Yodel?"

"I need to go to Hagrid's cottage."

Professor Flitwick was a little puzzled, but he did not embarrass his students. He waved his hand: "Go back quickly, don't waste too much time."

So Tom got a little free time.

He ran quickly to the edge of Hagrid's hut. At this point Hagrid had changed into a brown suit and stood at the door of the hut with a serious look on his face.

"Can I borrow Buckbeak?" Tom said his intentions before Hagrid could speak.

"First Evolution"

"Well, of course you can, but you want to—"

Before Hagrid could finish his question, Tom disappeared. He ran quickly to Hagrid's pumpkin patch and found Buckbeak dozing in the field.

After Buckbeak was acquitted, he stayed with Hagrid all the time, and was offered food and drink by Hagrid. In return, he guards the pumpkin fields and chicken coops for Hagrid, killing animals that conspire against pumpkins and hens.

Buckbeak was startled by Tom's arrival, and he raised his head and scrutinized the familiar man with his big orange eyes.

Tom bowed to it first, and when he got an answer he came to Buckbeak and untied its bridle.

Although one person and one beast have known each other last year, the hippogriff is a very hypocritical creature. The last bow is now overdue! If you want to strike up a conversation, you have to go through the process all over again.

"Join me in the Triwizard Tournament!" Tom said expectantly, stroking Buckbeak's feathers.

Under the influence of the exquisite ball, Buckbeak understood Tom's words.

Although he didn't quite understand what the Triwizard Tournament was, Buckbeak saw that Tom wanted to take him away from this melon field and go out for a walk.

That's not a bad thing, Buckbeak thought. So it raised its wings and agreed to Tom's proposal.

When Tom led Buckbeak back to the volunteer team, most of them changed their faces.

"What is this?" A girl from Beauxbatons couldn't help but ask.

"Hippogriff."

"I know, but why can you compete with it?!"

Tom held Buckbeak's bridle and kept a safe distance from the group of volunteers, lest they get too close to Buckbeak and anger the proud creature.

"Why not? There is no such thing as a ban on carrying a mount in the rules of the game, right?" Tom replied with a smile.

other people:……

It seems that there is really no prohibition!

The eyes everyone looked at Tom was a lot more complicated: How could this person be able to live so well? !

Before everyone has digested the news they just learned, you started to do things?

"Is this really okay?" Madame Maxime looked at the hippogriff who was obviously not easy to mess with, her face was not very good-looking.

"There's really nothing in the rules that prohibits volunteers from doing this." Ludo Bagman shrugged and felt that Tom's actions were not illegal.

Then, together with other professors, volunteers were taken to various corners of the forbidden forest.

...

Most of the students were unaware of what happened outside the forbidden forest.

As usual, they got up, washed, and went to the auditorium with their friends for breakfast. It was only after the auditorium that I gradually learned the news: the volunteers had already set off for the Forbidden Forest.

Everyone got excited all of a sudden.

"I just said that the game will be held in the Forbidden Forest!"

"Why? It's too dangerous!" There are also sensible little wizards who are quite critical of this location, but most students don't care about it.

"The Triwizard Tournament is inherently dangerous."

"Isn't the Ministry of Magic well prepared?"

"I don't think it's a big deal in the Forbidden Forest. I went in there when I was in first grade..."

The students noticed a problem: the game is held in the forbidden forest, so how do you watch the game? Follow the deans into the forbidden forest? This kind of guess makes everyone nervous, because if the guess is true, everyone will enter the forbidden forest!

The little wizards were chatting, but Cedric's face, surrounded by his classmates, became stiff.

What is the forbidden forest? Didn't it say that the first project was a fire dragon?

Whether it is Professor Karkaroff, Madame Maxime or Professor Sprout, after giving the warriors of their school "through questions", they have all helped them analyze the content of the first project.

The final conclusion was that they were going to spend some time with the dragons on the Quidditch pitch. The location of the game was set at the Quidditch pitch, which they speculated, because it was the best place to watch the game and to facilitate rescues.

But the current information conflicts with his own speculation! This is very troublesome!

Cedric was in a turmoil, and what was even more uncomfortable was that his friends were still talking beside him, making it difficult for him to concentrate.

"...Today, someone saw Yodel in the volunteer team. I'm so envious!"

The words floated into Cedric's ears and instantly woke him up.

That person also joined the ranks of volunteers! The flames of the World Cup finals left a deep impression on Cedric. In his mind, Tom's strength is unfathomable.

Is it possible to get Tom's help? Cedric figured it out.

"Digory, now the warriors are all gathering at Hagrid's hut... You must be ready to complete the first project." Professor Sprout turned to Cedric as his brain was racing. Came over, in a hurry.

The exchange between the two attracted the attention of many people.

"Okay." Cedric stood up, accidentally knocked over the cup in his hand, and let out a thud.

"Good luck."

"come on!"

"You will win!"

The classmates on the side cheered Cedric on. Cedric tried his best to squeeze a smile, saying that he would definitely live up to everyone's expectations. It's just that this smile is as stiff as it was carved.

Cedric left the auditorium with Professor Sprout. It was obvious that Professor Sprout was also nervous. She and Cedric came to the lawn outside the castle, where the weather had turned cold, and there was even hoarfrost on the lawn.

"Okay, don't be nervous," Professor Sprout put his hand on Cedric's shoulder, "It's good to play normally, I believe in your strength... Don't worry about safety, the Ministry of Magic has made some arrangements, if the situation It's not good, don't be stingy with using these backhands..."

Cedric simply hummed, indicating that he knew.

"One more thing, after the game starts, you can try your luck near the beating willow." After making the necessary instructions, Professor Sprout said such a sentence.

Cedric cast a bewildered look, but his dean walked silently without saying a word.

Cedric gradually understood what the Dean meant.
