Hogwarts Advanced Guide

Chapter 268 Harry Potter Warrior
"Then let's wait quietly for the final result." Madam Maxime put down the teacup. The black tea at Hogwarts made her uncomfortable, and the milk was too little, not as sweet as Beauxbatons.

Halloween seems to take much longer than usual, maybe because there are banquets for two consecutive days, maybe because the dishes here are really not suitable for the taste, the students of Beauxbatons seem to have a little loss of appetite, and put down their knives and forks early.

People in the auditorium kept looking up, with anxious expressions on every face.Everyone fidgeted, standing up every now and then to see if Dumbledore had finished eating.

One thing that made Hera feel gratified: Thanks to the strict management style, Beauxbaton's students did not show such a shameful scene. Those students who were impatient were basically young wizards of Hogwarts.This further illustrates how Hogwarts' 'pleasure education' was not very successful in some ways.

Finally, the golden plate returned to its original spotless state, and the voice in the auditorium suddenly became much louder.Randomly, Dumbledore stood up, and the auditorium suddenly became silent again.Karkaroff and Madame Maxime looked as tense and expectant as everyone else.Ludo Bagman was all smiles, winking at the students from various schools, while Crouch was a little uninterested, almost bored.

Hera's condition was similar to that of Ludo Bagman. He probably had guesses about the candidates from several schools. From a professor's point of view, it was not difficult to see that those students were obviously outstanding.

Krum of Durmstrang, despite his gloomy appearance, is definitely the strongest, especially when Durmstrang is teaching the Dark Arts.

Fleur Delacour of Beauxbatons, through extracurricular tutoring, Hera knew early on that her level was far higher than children of the same age, and it could even be said that even graduated wizards might not necessarily be as good as her.

Hogwarts, Gryffindor and Slytherin have to say that there are not very bright students. Ravenclaw still has a few decent students, but they are only good, but Cedric Diggory of Hufflepuff is really an excellent person. Hera thinks he is a strong competitor.

"Well, the Goblet of Fire is about to make a decision," said Dumbledore. "I think it will take another minute. Listen, when the names of the champions are announced, I want them to go to the top of the hall, then walk along the staff table, and into the adjoining room—" he pointed to the door behind the staff desk, "—where they will get their initial instructions."

He took out his wand and swung it broadly.Immediately, except for those candles in the jack-o-lantern, all the other candles were extinguished, and the auditorium suddenly fell into a semi-dark state.The Goblet of Fire now emits a dazzling light, brighter than anything in the entire auditorium. The blue-white flames bursting out sparks are almost dazzling. Hera watched and tried her best to look a little excited.
No way, knowing the answer to the mystery early is also a kind of torture to some extent - he has to wait for Dumbledore to announce the result.

The flame in the Goblet of Fire suddenly turned red again, crackling sparks burst out.Then, a flame shot into the air, and a piece of charred parchment flew out of it-everyone in the auditorium held their breath.

Dumbledore took the parchment and held it far away so that he could read the words on it by the light of the flames.The flames were now blue and white again.

"Who will it be? I'm so excited!!!" Penello held Hera's palm tightly, making him a little painful.

"The champion of Durmstrang," he said in clear force, "Viktor Krum."

"It's not surprising at all!" There was such a voice from the student desk, yes, it's not surprising at all, Krum should be a well-deserved warrior in any school.

He looks brave.

Krum got up from the Slytherin table and walked towards Dumbledore listlessly and sullenly. He turned to the right, walked along the staff table, and entered the next room through the door.

The applause and chatter died down, and now everyone's attention was once again on the Goblet of Fire.Hera also had to work hard to keep her eyes wide open, so as not to look too different from everyone in the auditorium.

The champion of Beauxbatons is Fleur Delacour, and the champion of Hogwarts is Cedric Diggory.Everything did not go beyond Hera's expectation.

Just when the uproar finally subsided, Dumbledore loudly said cheerfully: "Well, now our three warriors have been chosen. I know I can fully rely on all of you, including Beauxbatons and Durmstrang's other classmates—"

At this moment, Dumbledore suddenly stopped talking, and everyone could see what attracted his attention.

Hera finally cheered up, and finally reached the highlight of tonight.

The flames in the goblet turned red again.Sparks crackled and splashed out.A long tongue of flame suddenly jumped into the air, and another piece of parchment was lifted out of it.

Dumbledore stretched out a slender hand as if subconsciously, and grabbed the parchment.He held it far away, staring at the name written on it.There was a long silence, with Dumbledore staring at the note in his hand, and everyone in the Great Hall staring at Dumbledore.Then Dumbledore cleared his throat and read aloud—

"Harry Potter!"

Hera smiled secretly in his heart, seeing Harry's bewildered expression, he really couldn't help but want to laugh, he had to pinch his thigh tightly.

Harry sat there, aware that everyone in the Great Hall had turned their heads to look at him.

He was stunned, but the others in the auditorium were not stunned, a buzzing sound began to fill the auditorium, as if countless angry bees were chirping.Some students even stood up to get a better view of Harry, who froze in his seat as if frozen.

But this time, Hera was very clear in her heart that Harry really didn't do anything, and the only one to blame was Harry Potter, the unlucky guy who was favored by Voldemort.

Professor McGonagall stood up at the guest table and walked quickly past Bagman and Karkaroff. She whispered eagerly in Dumbledore's ear, and Dumbledore listened attentively, frowning slightly.

Madam Maxim also leaned over to ask Hera's opinion.

"What is the situation? Hogwarts will have two warriors? Is this the prerogative of the organizer?"

"I don't think he did it voluntarily, but where there is Harry Potter, there will definitely be trouble. This is my experience."
