Harry Potter and the Secret Treasure

In the recent review of the manuscript of the "Hogwarts Magic News", Ivan has seen related descriptions.

The location of the camp that Sirius had planned was the best, it was the closest to the competition venue, and there were all pure-blood wizard families and noble wizards nearby.

It is said that athletes from both sides of the competition also lived there.

Of course, that price is much more expensive than ordinary ones, and it will cost a lot of Galleons.

Chapter 453 Ludo Bagman

Sirius didn't explain, so Ivan naturally wouldn't talk too much.

He shares the same opinion as Sirius, the camping environment is secondary, and the most important thing is for everyone to be together.

He was still thinking about the reasoning he had just drawn, wishing he could decipher the "Book of Abraham" as soon as possible.

Everyone was in high spirits, laughing and laughing as they walked through the desolate swamp, barely visible through the thick fog.

After walking forward for about 10 minutes, a door gradually appeared in front of me, and then a small stone house.

Behind the stone house, there are hundreds of tents with strange shapes.

They followed the gentle slope of a large field that reached out to a dark wood on the horizon.

A man stood by the door, looking over the tents.

Judging from his expression, he was probably the only real Muggle in this large area.

It is just said, Mr. Roberts, the administrator of this site.

As soon as he heard their footsteps, he turned to look at them.

Mr. Weasley walked over to talk to him about renting a tent, and Harry hurried after him.

Since Mr. Weasley couldn't tell Muggle money apart, he was struggling to find it among the large rolls of notes.

And he also called the pound a colorful little piece of paper, which aroused suspicion from the Muggles on the opposite side.

"It's strange that you're not the only one who can't figure out the amount of money," he said in a low voice, looking carefully at Mr. Weasley and Harry standing behind him. "Just 10 minutes ago, someone Two people will pay me a lot of big gold coins."

Mr. Weasley said nothing, but looked at him uneasily.

"There have never been so many people!" He said in doubt, looking at the foggy camp again, "There has never been so many people from my colleagues here, hundreds of people have reserved tents, and people keep coming..."

Judging from his tone, it was like the beginning of a horror movie.

Perhaps for him, this matter was indeed very terrifying.

In places I am familiar with, strange and strange people keep pouring in for no reason, while my memory is constantly being reset.

"It's strange, isn't it?!" he continued, "Look, since a few days ago, there are people from everywhere. Countless foreigners, not only foreigners, but also many strange people .I just saw a guy walking around in a pleated skirt and a South American cape, which is clearly not normal."

Mr. Weasley's uneasy expression became more and more obvious, and he was already touching his wand.

"I have a feeling that they all know each other, like a party!" He lowered his voice, "Inside..."

At this moment, a wizard wearing bloomers suddenly fell from the sky and landed by the door of the stone house.

"Forget it all!" he snapped, pointing his wand at the Muggle.

Immediately, his eyes loosened and his brows loosened.

His face showed a dazed, indifferent expression, which is the state of memory when it is modified.

"Here's a plan of the camp," he said calmly to Mr. Weasley, "and your change."

"Thank you very much," said Mr. Weasley.

Several people entered the camp, accompanied by wizards in bloomers.

He looked very tired, his chin was unshaven and livid, and there were livid shadows under his eyes.

"Too bad, Arthur!" he kept muttering. "That Muggle got me into so much trouble, and to keep him happy I had to do the Oblivion Charm dozens of times a day. Besides, a A lot of uneasy wizards and troubles await me."

"Are you the only one busy?!" Mr. Weasley said in surprise, "Where are the others?!"

"Forget it, Ludo Bagman is not helping. It's supposed to be their department, but he's just walking around talking about Bludgers and Quaffles at the top of his voice, with no regard for Muggles , keep safe." He sighed heavily, "God, I wish this was over, it's been torture. See you later, Arthur!"

After he finished speaking, he apparated from the spot and disappeared!

"I thought Mr. Bagman was Head of the Department of Magical Sports," said Ginny, startled. "He should know you can't talk about Bludgers around Muggles, right?"

"Yes, dear!" Mr. Weasley said with a smile, "Ludo has always been a little sloppy about safety issues, but you can't find a more passionate person to be the leader of the Sports Division. You You know, he used to play Quidditch for Great Britain, he's the best batsman ever for the Wimbourne Hornets."

In the wizarding world, Ludo Bagman is a very well-known man and very popular.

However, Sirius sneered when he heard Mr. Weasley's words.

"Be careful with this man, Ivan!" He leaned over and whispered, "Bagman's past is not as glorious as the rumors say, he was once accused of providing confidential information for the Death Eaters. However, it is undeniable that he is a full-fledged Stupid, I doubt he knew what he was doing at the time, but be careful, there is nothing wrong."

Ivan nodded, Sirius' guess was right, Ludo Bagman is a real idiot.

Listening to Mr. Weasley and Bagman's introduction, everyone walked hard on the misty camp.

They passed between two long rows of tents, most of which looked like nothing special.

Evidently their owners had taken great pains to make them as Muggle tents as possible.

But some accidentally overdid it, adding chimneys, bell ropes or weathervanes to the superfluity, making it nondescript.

Occasionally, there are a few tents, which can be seen to be enchanted.

For example, in the middle of the camp, there is a tent that is particularly conspicuous.

It uses a lot of striped silk so extravagantly that it looks like a small palace, with a few live peacocks tied at the entrance.

Moving forward, they saw another tent set up in the shape of a four-story building, with several turrets beside it.

Further there, there is a garden in front of the tent door, which has birdbaths, sundials, fountains and so on.

"It's always like this, some people can't help but want to show off." Sirius said, "When you get into the innermost camp, near the camp belonging to the pure-blood wizard family, you will find out what real luxury is. "

Judging from his expression, he was clearly disgusted by this, as if recalling some unpleasant experience.

Judging by the looks of Harry and Ron, they seemed to want to go and see them.

They were very curious about the tents that Sirius had mentioned.

But the thought of meeting Malfoy there, watching him show off his high-end tent and laughing at them there, everyone lost interest immediately.

Chapter 454 Eleven Schools of Magic

Soon, everyone came to the camping place that Mr. Weasley had reserved.

In a clearing by the woods at the end of the camp, there was a small sign that said: Weasley.

"It's a nice place!" said Mr. Weasley cheerfully. "The grounds are just beyond the forest. It couldn't be nearer."

Ivan looked at the dense forest and felt that this place was really good.

The scenery is pleasant, and if there is any disturbance in the camp, they can escape to the woods for the first time.

Although Aiwen didn't expect any riots to happen, it's never a bad thing to take precautions.

"Okay, let's start setting up the tent!" Mr. Weasley said excitedly, "No magic is allowed, and since so many of us have come to Muggle territory, we must use our own hands to set up the tent! Since Those Muggles can do it, it's not that hard, is it?!"

He took out two gray tents and various tools from his backpack.

"Come on, kids..." He wiped his forehead with a handkerchief.

"Wait a minute, Arthur, is there enough space for these two tents?" Sirius said, looking carefully at the tents on the ground.

"By the time Charlie, Bill and Percy come over, there will be twelve of us!" Mr. Weasley frowned. "This is borrowed from Perkins in the office. To be honest, it's not very suitable. It will be a bit crowded, if you add a few more beds..."

"There is no need for an extra bed. I have a tent there, which has a lot of space!" Sirius said, "A few days ago, I ordered Kreacher to send it over, and now I can use it directly."

"Well then!" said Mr. Weasley, "that's a good idea, otherwise we'd all be crammed together. There are two open spaces here, and we can build a smaller tent for the girls!"

"Ivan, Harry, Ron, can I trouble the three of you to move the tent with me?" Sirius asked.

The three of them nodded hurriedly and followed Sirius into the camp.

At this time, the sun had just risen, and the mist gradually dispersed.

In the camp, they saw tents in all directions, and they couldn't see the end at a glance.

The four of them walked slowly among the tents, looking around with interest.

"My God, I never thought that there are so many wizards in the world!" Harry said with emotion.

Before this, he had never seriously thought about what wizards in other countries would be like.

"It's the first time I've seen so many wizards!" Ron sighed, "This is simply beyond imagination!"

"If you can work in an organization like the International Magic Cooperation Department of the Ministry of Magic or the International Federation of Wizards after graduation, like Percy, you will have frequent contact with wizards from abroad!" Sirius explained with a smile, "Depending on where you are Different countries have different traditions and magic used by wizards. For example, in Africa, curses, witchcraft, astronomy and disguise are more prevalent. They seldom use wands when casting spells, but more Get used to using your fingers or arms."

"Using fingers instead of wands?!" said Ron in surprise. "Just like house-elves."

Aiwen remembered the African black wizard he saw in the tavern on the edge of the Albanian forest before.

He does not have a wand with him, but carries a wicked doll with him, which is always hung on his wrist.

Aiwen guessed that the weird puppet was made of human skin and was specially used to cast curses.

"Sirius, you went to Beauxbatons with Ivan during the summer vacation, which is also a magic school like Hogwarts!" Harry asked suddenly, "Can you tell us about other magic schools? ?”

Ron also concentrated, and he also wanted to know about other magic schools.

Ivan has seen related descriptions in magic books before, but most of them are vague.

Magic schools are top secrets in the magic circles of various countries, and wizards who are not from their own countries are rarely able to collect relevant information.

"As we all know, the cultural and educational traditions of the magic world in each country are different. There are many ancient schools of wizards, and they are still using more traditional ways to pass on, rather than through magic schools." Sirius said, " But in general, there are currently eleven famous magic schools known in the world."

"There are as many as eleven?!" Harry exclaimed, "I only know Hogwarts!"

"Hogwarts is one of the three most famous wizarding schools in Europe, and the remaining two are Beauxbatons in France and Durmstrang in Germany!" Sirius continued, "You should have heard about it before. Ivan said about Beauxbatons. As for Durmstrang, it is a magic school that only admits students of pure blood. It has a long history, but its attitude towards black magic is relatively conniving. In the past, many dark wizards were Graduated from there."

Ivan knew that the black mage Grindelwald had once studied there.

As the first Dark Lord, Grindelwald even surpassed Voldemort in his heyday.

Considering the environment of Muggle society at that time, the huge wars all over the world provided a suitable soil for the development of black magic. Grindelwald and his minions almost controlled the whole of Europe.

He's plotting a terrible plot, and he's almost on the verge of success.

But unfortunately, he met Dumbledore.

When Grindelwald was at its peak, Dumbledore defeated him alone and saved the European magic world.

Coincidentally, shortly after that, the protracted war in the Muggle world came to an abrupt end.

Germany was defeated and paid a heavy price!

Since then, the world has entered into peace and a new international order has been re-established.

"What about the other eight magic schools outside of Europe?"

"There are three in the United States, including two in North America, including a magic school that only accepts witches, which is the only magic school in the world that is full of female wizards, and the remaining one is in Brazil!" Sirius said.

"I know that. Bill used to have a pen pal who went to school in Brazil!" said Ron. Said he couldn't go, and the pen-pal got mad and sent him a spelled hat that wrinkled his ears."

Thinking of that image, Harry laughed.

To be honest, he was very surprised when he heard Sirius say that there was only one magic school in the world.

Looking at the tents in the camp, he thought how stupid he was.

It never occurred to him that Hogwarts wasn't the only school of wizardry.

Chapter 455 Magic School and Customs

"The three magic schools in America are mainly the inheritance of the three schools in Europe. When I was in school, Hogwarts had an exchange student program every year. Students above the sixth grade can sign up and be reviewed by the school board." Sirius said, "However, I don't know when it will start, but the United States and Brazil have suspended this exchange project!"

This is really a pity, if possible, Ivan would like to exchange out to see it.

He had already read most of the magic books in the Hogwarts library, so it didn't make much sense to continue to stay.

Compared with studying senior courses step by step and improving his strength, Aiwen wants to take a look at the magic world in the United States and grow up in actual combat.

He had heard before that the three magic schools in America integrated the mysterious magic of the ancient Mayans, Aztecs and Incas respectively.

The wizards there unearthed a lot of things from the ancient ruins, and based on this to study magic, there are many unique spells that are not found in Europe.
