Chapter 510 Competition Between Principals
Hagrid's eyes became blurred after seeing the dragon. He even forgot that there were two people around him. He just stared at the dragon and unconsciously took two steps forward, as if he wanted to get closer.
"Stand there, Hagrid!" A wizard near the fence shouted. The short red hair and strong dark muscles were obviously Charlie.
"This tree can spray fire forty feet away. You'd better stay away!"
"Oh, it's beautiful." Hagrid said softly, and his tone was exactly the same as when he coaxed Fluffy, a three-headed dog, when he was a child.
After a few minutes, the dragon breeders finally used a stun spell to calm the irritable dragon.
Hagrid took two steps forward again.
"How is it, Hagrid." Charlie came over panting, "It's really hard to get them here. Fortunately, there are not many of them. Otherwise, I'm afraid that even twenty people would not be enough."
"Oh, yes..." Hagrid said absent-mindedly, his eyes kept glancing behind Charlie.
Charlie naturally understood what he was thinking. Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly noticed Maxim and Lockneil next to him.
"I didn't expect you to bring them here, Hagrid." Charlie said, frowning, "It stands to reason that warriors shouldn't know what they are facing... She will definitely tell her students, right."
"Ah, I just think they should be willing to come and broaden their horizons." Hagrid said, his eyes still fixed on the Hungarian tree peak.
Charlie shook his head.
Now that they are here and have seen everything they should see, it will be useless to ask them to go back now.
However, in order to ensure the fairness of the game, Charlie thinks he has to do something... For example, go outside the Forbidden Forest tomorrow, and then let Kyle see him accidentally.
There is no need to say anything, just let Kyle see him... He should be able to guess that the question is a fire dragon.
In this way, he is not breaking the rules.
Thinking of this, Charlie no longer entangled whether they should come, but stepped forward to say hello.
"Professor Lockneil, I'm so glad to see you here." Charlie stretched out his hand and said with a smile.
"Me too, young Mr. Weasley." Professor Lockneil shook his hand.
"Do you know each other?" Hagrid was a little surprised. He was just about to introduce each other to the two.
"Of course I know each other." Charlie explained: "A year ago in the Fire Dragon Sanctuary, Professor Lockneil helped us a lot."
A year ago... Fire Dragon Sanctuary...
After hearing these two key information, Hagrid immediately thought of something and asked: "Could it be that fire dragon melee?"
"Yes." Lockneil sighed: "Dozens of different kinds of fire dragons fighting... That was really a wonderful memory."
"Oh..." Hagrid groaned with regret. When he looked at Lockneil again, his eyes became sour.
"You really should have invited me too, Charlie." Hagrid couldn't help complaining.
"This is not something I can decide, Hagrid." Charlie shrugged, "The decision on the list is in the hands of the Romanian Ministry of Magic, we are just responsible for the reception."
"Okay." Hagrid sighed.
At this time, he suddenly noticed that there was a large box in the shadow not far away.
"Is there a dragon in there too?" He couldn't help but ask, "Why do you seal the box?"
"That..." Charlie looked back, then looked at Maxim and Lockneil next to him, then shook his head and said:
"Don't ask, Hagrid, I can't tell you, but I can guarantee that there is no dragon there... After all, these big guys won't stay still."
"But what about the missing one? What should we do?" Hagrid looked around and asked the question that Kyle wanted to know most, "There are only two dragons here, but there are three warriors. One for each person is not enough, right?"
"I don't know about that." Charlie said, "The task we received is to escort two dragons and this box... well, special props to Hogwarts, and we don't know anything about the others.
As for there are only two dragons... they probably want to draw lots, whoever is lucky can skip the dragon and win directly.
But if you ask me, the person who reaches the Hungarian tree peak will not have a good time. It is the most dangerous one even among the dragons."
Maxim subconsciously glanced at the black dragon, lowered his head, and didn't know what he was thinking.
"By the way, Hagrid." Charlie continued, "How is Kyle these days?"
"Fine..." Hagrid said, "He's preparing for the Triwizard Tournament and looks good."
"That's good." Charlie looked at the enclosure where the dragons were kept. "Although I guessed that Kyle might become a warrior when I was on vacation, I was still surprised when I really received the news.
Mom was also very happy, but I didn't dare to tell her what the first project was, otherwise she would definitely become nervous again. It's good like this now.
"Forget it, let's not talk about this... Hagrid, do you want to get closer to take a look, but be careful not to wake them up."
"Oh, can I?" Hagrid's eyes lit up.
Although he asked this, his body had already uncontrollably come to the side of the unconscious Hungarian tree peak, looking at it carefully, with an expression of almost reverence in his eyes.
In the woods not far away, Kyle and Connor were ready to leave.
Hagrid would probably stay here for a long time. At least he would not want to go back until the sun rose. They were not going to stay here all night.
Kyle and Connor turned around and prepared to return to the castle along the path they had come from.
When they came to the edge of the Forbidden Forest, they suddenly saw a dark shadow rushing towards them.
Kyle turned sideways in time and did not bump into the man.
"It's Karkaroff." Connor whispered beside him, "I saw his goatee."
"Maybe he received some news." Kyle said, "Although the project of the Triwizard Tournament is confidential, it can always be revealed... I think this part should be for the competition between the three headmasters."
The two returned to the castle, and Kyle took a look at the Marauder's Map.
Fortunately, Filch was still patrolling on the fifth floor. He opened a crack in the door, and he and Connor flashed into the castle, and returned to the Hufflepuff common room along the entrance hall.
There was no one in the common room.
Connor took off her invisibility cloak and said worriedly, "I can't believe that the first project is actually a fire dragon. Isn't this a bit too dangerous?"
"It should be said that one of the levels is a fire dragon." Kyle lifted the Disillusionment Curse, "As far as I know, there are three levels in the first project, representing three colleges. The fire dragon is probably a level set by Hogwarts."
"I dare say that the two principals must have told the content to the warriors of their school."
Connor frowned, "Did Principal Dumbledore tell you any news... As you said just now, the principals of the school can always help the warriors find out what the competition items are,"
"This, not yet." Kyle shook his head.
He hasn't even seen Dumbledore recently, let alone get any news about the Triwizard Tournament from him.
In terms of helping the warriors cheat, Dumbledore is obviously not as good as Maxim and Karkaroff.
