After hearing Draco's thoughts, everyone couldn't sit still.

Hermione pushed up her glasses, a cold gleam in her eyes.

Unexpectedly, in addition to Bellatrix, the obvious pawn, Voldemort also arranged for Gilderoy Lockhart to infiltrate.

This was something they didn't expect.

She guessed that the headmaster and Professor Snape should have noticed something, but they just didn't remind them. Maybe it could be considered a test?

They were also blinded by the experiences of another world, and they didn't know where their confidence came from, but they actually believed that nothing beyond their expectations would happen.

Look, hasn’t this appeared?

In fact, from the moment the two names appeared in the Goblet of Fire to the time when Hogwarts was responsible for the first project, Hermione felt a sense of irritation, which was caused by things going beyond her expectations.

The few people who had come into contact with Ludo Bagman didn't actually notice anything different about him, and for a moment, everyone felt a little ashamed.

In the final analysis, they didn't notice anything unusual about Ludo Bagman because they didn't take a small figure like him seriously.

They have never experienced setbacks and are really... too arrogant...

Don't underestimate anyone.

Hermione warned herself.

[However, Ludo Bagman and Gilderoy Lockhart are quite similar, and he can be said to be playing his true self.]

Yes, Ron nodded involuntarily. He had met Ludo Bagman before because of Arthur.

He really didn't realize that Bagman was played by someone else.

However, everyone silently warned themselves not to underestimate anyone, not even a loser like Lockhart.

Furong and Dis were relieved when they knew that the first level was related to magical plants. They knew quite a bit about this. It was probably something like the Devil's Snare, right?

The same goes for Krum. Although he is good at attacking spells, he also listens carefully in other courses and has some understanding of magical plants.

He also went to the library to look for relevant books, and he felt quite confident.

But Valery Rozier had a bad feeling.

Although he didn't know why magical plants were used as the first level, he was different from the other naive people, or perhaps they, the saints, all knew it.

They knew that Draco had a lot of strange plants in his hands. Although they had not personally experienced the power of those plants, they looked very dangerous!

Valery hesitated for a long time, but finally told Krum the news.

This made Krum become serious.

As he listened to Valeri's description, he felt that the plants looked very familiar, but he couldn't remember them for a while.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, the day of the first competition has arrived.

In the venue that had been built long ago, the audience seats on both sides were filled with students, parents and some reporters.

These were all invited.

The matter of the Goblet of Fire was a hot topic. Everyone knew that this Goblet of Fire was different from previous ones, and everyone wanted to get first-hand information.

But they can't enter Hogwarts whenever they want now.

Dumbledore invited the other two headmasters to discuss the matter, and they all agreed readily.

What a joke, how could I not agree to such a good thing that would make my family famous?

The parents who received the invitation letters were fine, but some smart ones already had a premonition that a storm was coming.

After asking carefully, I found out that not only wizards but also Muggle parents were invited.

An idea in my mind is about to come out.

However, these have no impact on the warriors who are preparing for the game backstage.

"What a generous gesture." Harry stood at the door of the warriors' tent and looked at the crowds of people outside, with admiration in his eyes.

I heard that Platform 2000 and 3/ has been completely renovated and can accommodate people. There are even three Hogwarts Express cars now.

And that's just the outside.

As we all know, although Hogwarts is big, most of it belongs to the Forbidden Forest and the Black Lake.

But the competition venue is right above the Black Lake. Yes, it is built right above the Black Lake, suspended in mid-air.

It was a bit like the water villas in the Maldives they had visited before.

However, compared to the holiday and leisure feeling of the Maldives water villas, the competition venue is more similar to the ancient Roman Colosseum.

But it is obvious that this place is much bigger, more exquisite and beautiful.

It's a style that fits Hogwarts perfectly.

Connecting the sites is a wide and flat stone arch bridge.

Considering that the competition might take some time, the Black Lake is lined with food stalls set up by elves.

These are all free, Hogwarts doesn't lack this little money. We can't let the guests go back hungry after watching the game, right?

Of course, there are also some potion stalls and magic props stalls made by the students themselves... These are not free, after all, they are the hard work of the students.

The quality is also very good and the price is not high.

The parents took the opportunity to look around before the competition started and actually found a few interesting ones.

Of course, the Weasley twins would not miss the business opportunity, as their joke shop branch is the largest.

Of course, the most interesting thing is the potion shop, which has all kinds of fantastic potions.

What about a potion that makes hair grow like crazy, a potion that makes your nose grow longer when you lie, a potion that lets you transform into a werewolf for an hour...

It's usually a sudden inspiration, and there are only one or two bottles.

Krum also looked up and pursed his lips.

With so many people here, it would be a lie to say he wasn't nervous. Moreover, he only found out yesterday that his parents were also secretly invited.

Or rather, all the warriors' families were invited.

When he saw his parents yesterday, Krum was surprised and touched.

I couldn't help but feel grateful for Hogwarts' thoughtfulness.

The same goes for Furong and the others. Dis is okay. After all, as a boy, even though he is sensitive, he will not lose his composure in public.

Furong could no longer control her emotions. She screamed and threw herself into the arms of her beloved grandmother with tears in her eyes.

Now the Warriors' parents are sitting next to the referee's table in center field.

This also increased the pressure on the warriors. No one wanted to lose face, and everyone wanted their families to see their bravery.

For a moment, the air in the Warriors waiting area was filled with tension.

Draco walked up to Harry and looked out, and at a glance he saw Lucius who was always paying attention to this place and Narcissa who was talking to the saints and nobles.

He greeted Narcissa and Lucius with a bright smile, his eyes and eyebrows showing confidence and ease.

He and Harry returned to the tent and chose a corner where they would not disturb others, where they whispered about all sorts of random topics.

Compared to the tension among the other people in the small corner, it was full of relaxation and warmth.

Fleur and Dis couldn't help but frown. Although they heard that Draco and Harry were very powerful, they were young and had never seen them fight, so they didn't think they could be that powerful.

And seeing that they didn't seem to take the game seriously, I felt inexplicably angry and as if I was being looked down upon.

Maybe it’s because Britain and France are inherently incompatible.

Krum had the same idea as Fleur and the others at first, but Valery hinted at him both explicitly and implicitly. He was not a fool, so he could naturally feel the seriousness in Valery's tone.

Valeri's admiration for Draco and Harry was for the two of them themselves.

Krum saw this clearly.

He glanced at the two people in the corner who were in a sweet atmosphere, then closed his eyes indifferently to conserve his energy.

A sudden and unanimous cheer could be heard outside, which made Furong and the others feel nervous.

"Ms. Fleur Delacour, Mr. Disantar, the two warriors may prepare to enter." Mr. Filch was in charge of logistics today. He walked in and reminded the warriors of Beauxbatons to be ready.

Furong and Dis stood up nervously, took a deep breath, and stood at the door of the tent.

"Let us welcome the warriors of Beauxbatons, Fleur Delacour! Disantar! First up! Bring us a wonderful match!"

The guest host and commentator was one of the people the Saints had planted in the Ministry of Magic, a very enthusiastic young man named Anthony Hope.

It can be said that the Saints have almost invaded the Ministries of Magic of various countries without realizing it.

Now all we need is a legitimate reason.

Narcissa in the family seat lowered her eyes, making it impossible to see her expression.

Furong's grandmother held her son and daughter-in-law's hands tightly, looking a little nervous and excited. The same was true for Dis's parents, who looked at the venue with anticipation.

Furong and Dis walked to the center of the venue to the sound of exciting music, and a round light blue, almost transparent cover flashed by.

This is to prevent accidental injuries to spectators in the stands and also to demarcate the venue.

Some people noticed it, and some people didn't.

Most of the uninformed audience members were paying close attention to what was happening in the venue, especially some Muggle parents. They thought Diagon Alley was magical enough, but they didn't expect that when they came to Hogwarts, they realized how ignorant they were.

Furong and Dis also held their wands tightly and stood ready. When the protective shield was opened, a strange plant quickly broke through the soil and grew to the height of two stories.

The entire room was completely silent, with only the host, Anthony, speaking in an unusually cheerful voice: "The first task is prepared by our Hogwarts. There are three levels in total. You need to get the golden egg at the root of the plant to pass. Come on! Warriors of Beauxbatons!"

Furong and Dis swallowed at the same time and stared at the plants in front of them in amazement.

There was a golden egg shining under the withered yellow leaves, but no one paid attention to the golden egg.

Because on this unusually slender rhizome there was a strange dark green dragon head, and its scarlet eyes were staring at Furong and Dis.

The huge sense of oppression made Furong and Dis a little stiff, but when they saw their parents and relatives looking worried in the family seats, for some reason, they felt a great courage in their bodies again.

Dumbledore nodded with satisfaction from the referee's seat.

Although Madame Maxime could not see the expressions of the two people clearly, the changes in their aura could not be hidden from everyone's eyes.

"Come on!" A Ravenclaw student suddenly shouted. She got along well with her classmates at Beauxbatons.

She believed that the final winner would only be Hogwarts, but at this moment, she was not stingy with a cheer.

"Come on!" "Come on Beauxbatons!"

It was as if a switch was turned on, and everyone in the stands, regardless of school, cheered for the two warriors at the same time.

Furong and Dis were surprised and moved.

They looked determined as they stepped forward in unison, simultaneously applying all the defensive magic they had learned to themselves.

They discovered that the strange plant did not attack them.

This left everyone in the stands a little confused.

Maybe this plant is like the Piranha Plant, devouring enemies at close range?

Just when Furong and Dis were relaxing a little, they stepped into the 50-meter range of the Fire Dragon Grass.

Dis noticed with his sharp eyes that the Fire Dragon Grass had opened its mouth slightly.

He was startled and pulled Furong over without saying anything.

"careful!"

The scorching flames just passed by Furong, and a few strands of her flowing hair were singed by the flames, shortening them by a long distance.

Furong's face turned pale, and before she could thank him, another pillar of fire shot out from the mouth of the Fire Dragon Grass.

Dis and Furong dodged in a panic.

Furong had a flash of inspiration and pulled Dis back quickly, retreating to 50 meters away from the Fire Dragon Grass. Only then did the Fire Dragon Grass calm down.

"It seems that as long as you get within 50 meters of it, it will start attacking." Dis also understood Furong's behavior, and analyzed in a low voice with a cold face that was somewhat androgynous.

"Did you notice? The attack of that...plant on us just now didn't come immediately." Furong thought for a while and analyzed with Dis.

They had just dodged the attacks of the Fire Dragon Grass several times and could only move away in a panic, but were unable to get close to it.

"That's right! Every time it spews fire, it pauses for two seconds!" Dis's eyes lit up, "And did you notice that it will attack the person closest to it first?"

Dis and Furong looked at each other in tacit understanding and had new ideas.

They separated and formed a straight line with the fire dragon grass, with the fire dragon grass in the middle.

The two sides looked at each other from a distance and nodded.

In the stands, everyone was nervous. Clever people saw through the situation and couldn't help but admire the two men.

Sharp little guy.

Furong and Dis rushed forward at the same time. Furong's speed was certainly not as fast as Dis's, but...

When the Fire Dragon Grass attacked Dis, Furong was obviously closer to the Fire Dragon Grass than Dis, and the Fire Dragon Grass's attack target also shifted to Furong.

Furong counted 1, 2 in her mind, then jumped to the side the moment the Fire Dragon Grass opened its mouth.

At this time, Dis also caught up and was closer than Furong.

The two of them took turns in tacit understanding, but the closer they got to the Fire Dragon Grass, the harder it was to avoid the pillars of fire, and they had less time to react.

Although Dis used several springs of water on himself in time, his left arm and shoulder were still burned.

At this moment, he was desperately trying to dodge the pillar of fire that was suddenly hitting his face.

Furong looked at the almost golden egg and Dis who was struggling to play dodgeball with the fire dragon grass, and gritted her teeth.

She exhausted all her strength and rushed towards the golden egg.

The Fire Dragon Grass, sensing the enemy's breath, had already turned around, with the red flame in its mouth ready to go.

1 ...

Furong looked at the golden egg which was only a few centimeters away from her fingertips, and secretly exerted her strength. It’s almost there...it’s almost there!

2 ...

She grabbed the golden egg, her joy at success beyond words.

But she suddenly froze, raised her eyes, and met a dark mouth and dazzling firelight.

"No!" Dis looked at the flames coming down on Furong's head with bloodshot eyes, his tone full of fear and sadness.

He watched helplessly as his companions were consumed by the flames...
