Hogwart’s Certain Professor Of Magic

The champions stood up one after another, and left the scene amidst the warm applause and the blessings of their loved ones. Mrs. Granger stubbornly held Hermione's hand with tears in her eyes. "My dear, she will be fine." Mr. Granger said while hugging his wife.

"I know, I just..." Mrs. Granger was speechless.

Mr. Granger said to Hermione with red eyes, "Your mother is a little excited...because of the video of the second task... I waited at the Leaky Cauldron door for an afternoon, only to find a strangely dressed wizard. , He brought me in... Anyway, we want you to know, Hermione, we are proud of you."

Hermione's eyes are also moist. Harry and Ron not knowing what to do stood aside, Sirius and Bill draped their shoulders one to the other. Sirius patted Harry's back hard and almost pushed him back. Sirius said to the Grangers: "There are two men in the team!"

"Yes, yes, we will take care of it. Her." Harry and Ron said hurriedly.

As we walked through the hall and walked down the steps, Hermione's mood was still a little depressed. Harry and Ron looked at each other. Ron complained, "Hermione, you should tell your parents some magic circle Common sense, don’t they know that you are the strongest of the three?"

"Oh," Hermione smiled, "In their impression, I just went to school in a different place , It’s like... Well, how do you say? Study the scholar of mysticism? I can’t use magic outside of school after all... Maybe the books I bring back every summer vacation also deepen this impression."

They cautiously Walking on the dim ground, a dozen champions pulled out a long line, followed by some people on both sides.

"Who are they?" Harry looked aside.

"Ministry of Magic people are mostly Auror." Ron said, seeing Harry's puzzled gaze, he shrugged, "There must be someone staring at each layer in the maze, just in case. Professor Haip can’t be too busy alone... Percy told me, I have to admit that he has been very busy recently."

Pukwudgie, with a short bow, waved to the champion of Ifamoni.

Hermione became nervous: "We didn't think about dealing with Pukwudgie. They won't appear in the maze?"

Harry did not speak, just stared at the silhouette of Pukwudgie, and he also Not sure. These little things used to live in the forest. Surely they can like a fish back in water in a maze? He vaguely remembered that Pukwudgie's bows and arrows were poisoned...

"Have you brought an antidote, Hermione?" he asked.

"I brought it, I have prepared a lot of things...but to be honest, if we are really caught by a sneak attack, we may not be able to use it." Hermione touched her beaded bag and said.

The rest of the time they remained silent and walked along the edge of the Forbidden Forest. The road became more and more familiar. Before turning a bend, Harry glanced behind him one last time. The steps were full of densely packed light spots. It was the light of wand, and the people in the auditorium also came out, because they were too far apart and he couldn't hear any sound.

But Harry can fully imagine how excited they are. Seamus and Dean may be enthusiastically discussing what is in the maze. They have been doing this for months; Ginny may be with Luna, but He really couldn't guess what they would talk about, maybe it was some kind of magical creature that hasn't been discovered yet? As for Neville, he asked Hermione some time ago for an incantion list, and he will definitely shine in next year's duel class... And Malfoy, he may be gnashing teeth!

The last thought made Harry feel a little excited, "Oh, my goodness!" Hermione groaned in his ear.

Harry followed her gaze, fiercely shocked in his heart. In front of him was a square-tower building not much smaller than Hogwarts Castle. He could only see three strong corners, stacked with black stones to form straight upward prisms, and the gaps between them were filled with airtight thorns and hedges. full. The building at least has hundreds of feet high, and Harry secretly estimated how many floors the maze would have.

Stopped ahead, Bagman waited for the people to gather and took them to the huge building. They walked through the sparse forest to a clearing where a huge silver tent stood. Light was shining slightly in the darkness.

Harry was in a daze for a while. It seemed that when he returned to the first task, they had to work together to deal with a Dragon... But that seemed to be a matter of the previous life.

"Okay," Bagman said happily, "You should be familiar with this place. We built a maze castle on the original field for competition. The school has prepared two places, but I think The familiar environment will make you feel at home..."

Everyone stared at him.

Bagman looked at everyone happily, as if he wanted to get a compliment or two. In the awkward silence, he had to give up this idea. "Then, uh, let me read the rules. You need to break through the maze. There are 7th Layer. The area gets smaller as you go up. There are no traps on the top floor, only one trophy."

"Forbidden Use dark magic, and it is forbidden to use strong incantation on people..."

He said for ten minutes, Harry was a little irritable to hear these things, they have analyzed these things many times, and finally, Bagman said Focus.

"Next, I will introduce the order of entering the maze. According to the rules," Bagman glanced at Harry. "The two teams of Hogwarts will get average points, but since they are ranked first and second, There is no need for this. Just enter according to the scores—"

At this time, the curtain of the tent was lifted from the outside.

"Bagman, the trophy is already set."

"Thank you, Yaxley. This should have been my job, but you have seen it too, I am unable to attend to other things ......"

Yaxley bared his teeth and squeezed a blunt smile from between his teeth, "You're welcome." The man disappeared into the tent.

"Okay, the trophy is already placed. Next, I will introduce the guards in the maze. They are all from the Ministry of Magic. Well, except for Felix, the guards will not show up easily, even if you pass out. It’s the same for now."

The champions looked at each other in blank dismay. "In case the unconscious champion was discovered by the wandering rare beast -" one of the Beauxbatons' Champions, the girl named Jacqueline Bourgeva asked. Several champions nodded, they had the same question.

"Ah, this is the role of a guard," Bagman smiled. "They will watch from the sidelines. Unless you really encounter the mortal danger, you will not take action. If unconscious people are lucky, When he meets his partner, he can continue to play..."

The curtain of the tent opened again. Kingsley and Felix walked in together.

"The audience door is already seated, Ludo. After 5 points, the champion can be arranged to enter the venue, and the staff will take them in through different entrances." Kingsley said calmly.

"Excellent," Bagman said happily, "I can't wait to host the game."

"Wait, a different entrance?" Byer of the Ifamoni team Si asked.

"There are four entrances in total. Which one enters is random. The only restriction is that the same team must be separated." Felix took the words and said mildly.

"Yes, that's it." Bagman echoed, "Then—" He looked around.

"Can I say a few words?" Felix asked softly.

"Oh, what—of course." Bagman said.

Felix stood in front of the champion, looking over everyone, "You have made unimaginable efforts during this year, and you have also gained tremendous gains, strength, friendship, courage, and cooperation. , Trust...Although the third task is extremely difficult, I believe that you can successfully overcome the difficulties. You only need to mobilize your wisdom, trust your companions, and most importantly-even in the worst situation, don't give up hope. "

"Today is just an important node in your life, not the end-time is on your side."
