Chapter 331 Helga: Such a Perfect Doll Will Cost at Least 3,000 Galleons

"How can this be?!"

"Why do you set the age of seventeen as the threshold?"

Astoria and Daphne protested together. When the Triwizard Tournament is held next year, there is no way they will be seventeen years old! Then this competition will have nothing to do with them? They are now in the third grade and can't wait for the next Triwizard Cup.

Rice can't accept the setting that the warriors must be seventeen years old.

If this condition is blocked, his and Rowena's students will not be able to participate in the tournament. It's a small matter for students to not get experience, but it's a big deal to be robbed of the championship by the other two schools.

Rice has been studying at Hogwarts for several years, and he is still clear about the level of the sixth and seventh grade students in the school-most of them can't even beat Daphne, who is in the second grade, and the only one who is more outstanding has graduated.

In other words, Rice looks down on the current senior students of Hogwarts.

Although Beauxbatons and Durmstrang are likely to be of the same character, once they are not taught by them, variables will arise.

He couldn't accept the Triwizard Cup being taken away by the other two schools in front of him. If this happened, Helga would be ashamed. How could the two of them face Rowena underground?

"The Ministry of Magic and the three participating schools also have their concerns. They are worried that the difficulty of the project is too high and will cause casualties among the participating students, so they set the age limit to over seventeen years old." Mr. Henry explained for the three people, but this statement obviously could not convince Rice.

Thousands of years ago was different from now. Death often came to them. On the issue of life and death, Rice's threshold is much higher than that of modern wizards, and the concerns of the Ministry of Magic and the school cannot be a factor to convince him.

"This rule is not good. The age should be relaxed." Rice glanced at Mr. Henry, hoping that he could play a role in this regard.

He added: "And a school can only send one warrior, which is a bit petty."

When Rice said this, his whole mind was opened: Yes, why should we stick to the old rules of the Triwizard Tournament? There may not be only one warrior, and the school may not be the "three strongest".

"Since you want to hold a competition, why not make it big, let all the famous magic schools in the world participate, and have more students participate, so that everyone can take a good look at the young talents in the current magic world - of course, this is just my personal idea." Rice shared his idea with Mr. Henry, who was stunned.

Is this too big? But obviously Lord Slytherin has his own ideas, and he can't refute it in person.

After thinking for a while, Mr. Henry could only tell Rice that he couldn't say much about this matter, so he could only try his best to lobby.

Rice sighed. If it was really held like the original Triwizard Tournament, it would be an exhibition match after all, and it was meaningless. It didn't matter whether Daphne and the others participated or not. It would just be a waste of time.

Daphne and Astoria didn't hear the second half of the conversation between their father and Rice. They were all immersed in the scene described by Rice.

In front of all the teachers and students in the school, defeating the elites selected by magic schools around the world, this kind of thing is very cool just thinking about it.

While Les and Henry were discussing the Triwizard Tournament that might be held next school year, Helga was talking business with officials from the Ministry of Magic in the classroom.

"How long can the automatic combat doll you mentioned last?"

"If it is regularly maintained and serviced, it can be used for hundreds of years." Hufflepuff replied very confidently.

In fact, if she were to tell the truth, she felt that her doll could last for a thousand years, but the group of wizards in front of her would definitely not believe it, so she was a little modest.

However, the number of a hundred years was also shocking enough.

This is a hundred years, and it can be used for a century! Literally, a doll is passed down for three generations, and the doll will still be there after the grandson is gone.

The officials of the Ministry of Magic sitting in the audience looked at each other, subconsciously wondering if Professor White was bragging.

Helga knew from the expressions of the crowd that they doubted what she said, so she waved her hand and said generously that if the doll was sold, she would guarantee and replace it within fifty years without human damage.

Officials: ...

This is a bit impolite to say, but you don't look like you can live to fifty years later.

But since she dared to say so, she should be very confident in the quality of the doll.

The officials didn't really care whether Professor White's doll could really be used for hundreds of years, as long as the doll didn't cause large-scale quality problems before they retired.

"You just said that the dolls shown in the previous class were not the limit of your doll making? Can you make dolls with more complex functions and more powerful power?" Another middle-aged witch with a square chin asked curiously.

"Yes, the dolls I made in class just now are just teaching tools I made casually. If I make them seriously, I will definitely make better dolls."

"How about the combat effectiveness of the dolls?" In the eyes of the middle-aged witch, the combat effectiveness of the dolls shown in the class just now is already strong enough. If the combat effectiveness of the official version can continue to increase, it will be amazing.

"I think their combat capabilities will not be inferior to Aurors."

Helga's words caused an uproar in the audience.

Aurors are the top fighting force of the Ministry of Magic and an important means of maintaining peace. Every Auror is a precious asset of the Ministry of Magic. As a result, this professor actually said that the puppets she made can have fighting power comparable to Aurors? !

"This answer is amazing - do you mean that you can make a fighting puppet that can be used for more than a century and has fighting power comparable to Aurors? This kind of puppet can fight automatically without human manipulation?" The middle-aged witch repeated the performance parameters of the puppet described by Helga in an incredible tone.

"Of course." Helga said calmly.

In her eyes, there is actually no difference between modern Aurors and ordinary wizards. It's just that the former has more combat experience and may be able to resist one more spell from her.

Many wizards present fell into silence.

They had to consider a question: Is the old man in front of them talking nonsense? But judging from her performance in class, it doesn't seem so unrealistic.

"Well, how much does such a puppet cost?" In the end, Lucius Malfoy stood up and broke the silence of everyone.

Helga saw the clue from everyone's reaction, so she answered without hesitation: "Three thousand Galleons, this is the starting price."
