Hogwarts 1991

Chapter 631 The Golden Tree in the Nurturing Garden

Ludo Bagman's voice rumbled overhead.

But Harry couldn't care less about this guy's explanation.

He was immersed in the almost miraculous scene in front of him——

The giant tree that was originally similar to a eucalyptus suddenly burst like a bubble.It disappeared without a trace, and at the same time as it disappeared, some mysterious light bloomed in it...

Then a very standard tree that people generally recognize exists, falls from the light, grows... as time goes by, it grows taller.

Its trunk is huge and straight, like a road leading to the sky.

The trunk, branches and leaves are lush and complicated, and some kind of illusory and transparent golden light shines above the sky.

Illuminated from top to bottom, from the sky to the Forbidden Forest.

And as the golden tree grew higher and higher, the thick fog on the ground and the black rain in the woods also merged, and they drew each other into complicated circular marks, like some kind of complicated magic circle.

Moving, changing, flowing.

Harry could clearly see the white mist and black water gathering around him, being continuously sucked by the illusory tree roots glowing with golden light under his hand...

The tree grew bigger and bigger until it outstripped anything Harry had ever seen before. (Even those giant scary plants like hills in the second grade... can't compare...)
The golden tree in front of me seems to grow directly to the moon.

The diameter of the trunk cannot see its borders at all,

It was just a wrinkle on the tree trunk that turned into an extremely deep ravine in front of Harry.

It can be seen that the size of the giant tree...

And the canopy that was visible at the beginning, those golden leaves that radiate light, have disappeared from sight now, only the occasional one or two extremely delicate new shoots growing from the trunk, and the golden light shining from above can prove that the scene just now is not fake.

And the tree continues to grow.

In front of this giant tree, the small island stands that were originally suspended in the sky have become extremely small in comparison, just like a bird's nest on a tree.

This is the golden tree, the real tree of the world,

The legend always shines with the light of wisdom, the source of all magic!

Everyone surrendered to the mighty power of this giant tree, not to mention Harry and the other warriors. Even Ludo Bagman, who was still explaining the origin of the World Tree at the beginning, became speechless with the rapid expansion of the World Tree.

No language can describe all these scenes in front of them.

On the stand of the floating island (Gryffindor), McGuffin opened his eyes wide. He looked up... The rapid growth of the world tree almost broke his neck because of it.

Not only him, but the rest of the students in front of him... Ron and Hermione are also the same.

Hermione was even more immersed in it, and seemed about to jump off the stands to find the incredible miracle of touching.

"Hermione! Hermione! Calm down!"

McGuffin suppressed the constant agitation in his body, the self-initiated magic power, and tried his best to pull Hermione aside.

She was in a standing long jump position, and Ron on the side was not much better, half-stretching his body and leaning out of the floating island stand.

It seemed that McGuffin was the only one awake around.

After yelling a few times, there was a loud cracking sound over Ludo Bagman's small island, which woke everyone up.

McGuffin reached out and pulled Hermione and Ron back to their seats.

"Be careful! Suppress your magic...don't be affected by it."

"McGon...McGuffin! Look on your head..." Just as McGuffin kindly persuaded the two of them, Hermione stammered, looking at the sky above his head in great surprise, and said hastily.

The other students also turned their gazes over.

McGuffin had a bad premonition.

He reached out and touched...

It was empty, but McGuffin could feel that the magic power of his body was decreasing, as if he had been secretly eaten by something.

Hermione took out a slap mirror from inside her robes and handed it to McGuffin.

He opened it and took a photo above his head, and sure enough——

A bunch of green seedlings are spreading their branches and leaves vigorously... growing wantonly on his head.

The green light and the golden light shining down from above corresponded continuously.

Shir!
McGuffin hurriedly took back the seedlings of the World Tree.

However, this 'supernatural power' with green light seems to have been deeply enshrined in the hearts of everyone.

The only good news is that the customs here do not mean that green is unlucky. Aren’t Muggles and wizards in Ireland still happy to wear this kind of green hat and use the color of clover as a talisman?

At the same time, Ron recovered slowly. After McGuffin pulled the guy back, he slumped on the seat in a trance, staring blankly at the golden light falling from above.

Many people are like this, these wizards' faces... there is a certain kind of extremely pious expression.

McGuffin looked at the other stands, and the wizard on the opposite side... or everything on those floating islands was dyed with a layer of golden light.

The faces of the wizards are very consistent... an expression of confusion and piety, fear and longing,
After their faces were covered with a layer of golden light, they showed a different kind of inhuman beauty.

Like a golden statue made by God.

After a long time, it seems that the world tree has stopped growing and the magic power here has become stable.

Only then did people get rid of the last bit of infatuation and wake up one after another.

Ludo Bagman finally continued to explain the game, introducing the origin of this world tree,

"It looks like everyone is in shock ... don't be ashamed of yourself being shocked, it's normal."

"As far as I can see...not only you and me...even Mr. Crouch in front of me, but also Professor McGonagall...they were all as shocked by this scene as anyone else."

"And according to some literature just now, all wizards close to the World Tree will fall into a state of abundant magic power, which will make wizards... especially students who cannot fully control their own magic power become blind, lose their minds, and fall into a state of mental and magical restlessness."

During Ludo Bagman's narration, the other students gradually calmed down, and they gradually knew the origin of this world tree...

This huge tree, which is as big as the world, is the closest miracle in the magic shuttle,
It was found by Ms. Hufflepuff, and through the magic of the Big Four... it was kept in the most mysterious secret space in Hogwarts——[Cultivation Garden].

Each Hufflepuff dean takes it as their own responsibility to cultivate a real world tree, and they have been doing this for hundreds of years.

Almost every headmaster and minister of magic knows that in Hogwarts' nurturing garden, there is the remains of the oldest world tree.

"However, with the ebb and flow of world magic as we all know, it has weakened... This closed mysterious space could not even be opened 100 years ago."

"The legend of the World Tree... has gradually become a rumor!"

"However, due to the influence of the huge and terrifying plant world a few years ago, the entrance and exit of the [Cultivation Garden] in the Forbidden Forest has finally been opened."

"And under the hard work of our Professor Sprout and the cultivation of wisdom... this world tree is resurrected and blooms again in the cultivation garden."

"Of course, we are now in this cultivation garden... The white mist a few days ago and the black rain this morning are all part of the magic ritual to open this secret space..."

"Okay, that's the end of the introduction. Our warriors are already in their positions." Ludo Bagman coughed and began to say,
"Let me explain the rules of this competition..."

"It's very simple. Every warrior has to use various methods...from the root of this world tree, climb up...within an hour, the warrior who reaches the highest point...will be the winner of this event."

"You can use any magic, but remember...don't deliberately endanger the lives of other warriors, we referees...everyone can watch from above."

"By the way, the life potion in your hands... can save your life at a critical moment. This is just in case."

Ludo finally shouted loudly to the warriors below, "Okay, are you all ready?"

"As soon as I blow the whistle, the second project will start. I count to three."

"one two Three!"

The sharp whistle echoed in the golden light, cold and still air.

Harry moved his body a bit, raised his wand to cast the flying levitation spell, and flew up directly like McGuffin.

Although he definitely couldn't catch up to Chen Xiaolong who was already sprinting... walking on the flying sword.

But compared to others, that's much better.

When Harry was swaying and floating,
The other warriors have already shown their abilities and went straight up...

Nasser directly turned the wand into a continuously elongated rope, and he just grabbed it directly, like pulling the cable of an elevator, and climbed upward at a constant speed.

And Chiko Morita didn't know how to cast a spell, so he could stand firmly on the tree trunk, just swing his hands and run upwards.

Mobutu turned himself into some kind of orangutan-like, half-human, half-ape monster with long hands, and then grabbed the gap in the tree trunk and rushed up.

Camilla and Furong were sitting on the original black-purple crystal leopard...they also flew up.

The rest of the people also have their own skills to go up.

In comparison, Harry's method is still the lowest.

Just when Harry was very anxious and felt that he was behind.

Snapped!
——Crack!

Several warriors fell directly.

The little wizards who were too late to cast the [Shock Absorbing Curse], a layer of pale golden light attached to their bodies, protected a few people... making them fall down slowly.

But even here, they fell heavily, especially Chen Xiaolong who was the first to fly away.

And they were still firmly trapped in place by this layer of light,

They struggled in it, waving their limbs laboriously and slowly... It seemed as if they were stuck by it.

Harry was stunned for a moment, almost unable to control the flying state,
He didn't know what was in front of him for a while, and what made these warriors fall.

After hesitating for a while, Harry approached the tree trunk, and directly 'picked it up' with both hands and feet.

Relying on the Levitation Flying Charm, Harry pouted his ass like a gecko... in such an unsightly way to move fast.

It's not pretty, but it's solid.

It also gave Harry a sense of security.

that's enough.

Soon, he caught up with Chiko Morita and the others...the warriors who didn't fall...

Harry finally figured out why they fell because of Chen Xiaolong.

And it will look like that.

I also understand why this competition is so easy to realize.

Because Harry saw ahead of him... in some of the furrows in the creases of the tree trunks, some rich amber golden light was flowing slowly,
These translucent and slightly viscous substances... gathered from some wrinkled ports, and rolled down like huge cream balls.

Like ordinary resin dripping down...

Still very dense.

No wonder, no wonder those warriors fell like that...

Harry suddenly realized,

If you fly too fast, or you can't move flexibly... you will definitely bump into it accidentally.

No wonder the professor referees... will use this as the second competition item.

And this should only be the first difficulty on this world tree.

After coming here, Harry can finally see the world that exists on this golden tree.

Far away on the tree trunk, Harry could vaguely see a pale golden amber-shaped river above it, flowing slowly with golden light, and a jungle of tiny vine branches and leaves, as well as those goblins flashing back and forth.

Even at the very end, there is a dense fog, some glowing rainbows, and its faint golden waterfall splashing on it...

Like a dream, an incredible picture curtain slowly opened in front of Harry and the others.

……

When Harry and the others had already started the match, the London Ministry of Magic was in some kind of unprecedented political impasse.

The atmosphere among Dumbledore, Scrimgeour... and representatives of other foreign magic schools was very tense.

"it's out of the question!"

"This document is too insulting to our British wizarding community, even if it is aimed at dealing with the Dark Lord..."

"As the newly appointed Minister of Magic of the United Kingdom...it is absolutely impossible for me to agree!"

--boom!

Scrimgeour hammered the table, he was like a lion...his hair stood on end, his pupils dilated, staring at the representatives in front of him with a devouring gaze.

Agilbert Fonnert took a step forward unhurriedly. As if he had become the representative of these wizards, he spoke, "Mr. Scrimgeour... After the fight yesterday, you should also be able to understand our scruples... That demon is too dangerous, and our help will cost a lot of sacrifice..."

"What's more, you are not yet the Minister of Magic of the United Kingdom, and Mr. Cornelius Fudge is acting as the deputy. Although you are the next Minister of Magic, you can't reach a formal agreement with us before you go through the proper procedures for appointment..."

"You... this guy..." Scrimgeour shouted angrily.

"Connelly, tell me..."

He hurriedly turned his head to look at Fudge, who was sitting on the stool behind him.

But he has already lost his right, Fudge... Apparently, he has no intention of sticking to this hot potato, so he spread his hands out in a non-stick manner, pretending to have no choice but to vaguely agree,
"You guys have discussed it? Anyway, if everyone agrees in the end... I will sign the document..."

Scrimgeour was about to explode.
