The growth history of Hogwarts poisonous magizoologist

"The competition will officially begin at the end of the banquet. I now invite everyone to eat and drink as much as you would at home!"

After Dumbledore welcomed the guests, he added a word about the start time of the Triwizard Tournament.As he finished speaking, the plates in front of everyone were piled with food as usual.

The house elves in the kitchen seemed to have tried their best. Even Rolf had seen such a sumptuous dish for the first time.These delicacies were placed in front of them in a variety of ways, and he even found many dishes that suited the guests' tastes.

"It seems that the house elves at Hogwarts are not only good at making 'British' delicacies, they are also involved in dishes from other countries."

After talking, Luofu tried it and felt that it was actually not much different from Da Ying's 'cuisine'.But for now, he seems to have no better choice.

However, at this moment, there seemed to be a commotion from Gryffindor.It turned out that Fleur had taken off the scarf she was using to cover her face in order to get the plate of French fish soup in front of Harry.

Because of her Veela blood, many boys, including Ron, once again had the same reaction as seeing Veela at the World Cup.He just stared at her blankly, opened his mouth to answer, but only made some strange little sounds, as if his throat was stuck.

On the contrary, Harry and Neville looked very calm. As for Rolf, after taking a look at Fleur and the soup in her hand, he said something that only Luna could hear clearly.

“Nice French tuna.”

After making this comment, Luofu returned his attention to the food in front of him.If he found a good one, he would signal Luna to try it too.

Because the two of them have a lot in common when it comes to food, and they like to eat similar flavors.While the two were sharing the food with each other, the two empty seats at the faculty table were also filled.

Ludo Bagman, who had just arrived, sat on the other side of Professor Karkaroff, and sitting next to Mrs. Maxim was no longer Old Crouch, but Pierce Thicknesse.

After Crouch Sr.'s collapse and death, he took over Crouch Sr.'s original position as Director of the Department of Enforcement of Magical Laws at the Ministry of Magic until the Minister of Magic appointed a successor to take over the job.

For now, he still has to come and take charge of the Triwizard Tournament as the Director of the International Cooperation Department of the Ministry of Magic.Not long after they sat down, the sumptuous dinner was taken away and replaced with exquisite desserts.

These desserts also include many types from other countries, which Luna, who has lived in the UK for a long time, has never seen before.On the other hand, it was Rolf. For some reason, he could name all the desserts and had tasted quite a few.

When the desserts were finally removed, Dumbledore stood up again.And as he moved, a feeling of excitement and nervousness seemed to permeate the auditorium.

Basically unchanged and calm like Luo Fu, he couldn't help but start to look forward to it.Because unlike others, he knew what Dumbledore was going to announce next.

"The moment has finally arrived," Dumbledore said, smiling at the upturned faces. "The Triwizard Tournament is about to begin. I want to explain a few words first, and then bring the box in... "

"First of all, I want to explain our activity procedures this school year. Because of the Triwizard Tournament, it will be a little different from previous years. But before that, please allow me to introduce two guests, because there are still some people who don't know me. them."

"This one is Mr. Piers Thicknesse. After the unfortunate incident of Mr. Barty Crouch, he is currently temporarily holding the post of Director of the International Cooperation Department of the Ministry of Magic."

Following Dumbledore's introduction, sparse applause broke out in the auditorium.Pierce also stood up following Dumbledore's introduction and nodded slightly.

"And this one is Mr. Ludo Bagman, Director of the Sports Department of the Ministry of Magic. His contribution to the success of the recent Quidditch World Cup is not small."

The applause in the auditorium was much louder for Bagman than for Crouch, perhaps because of his reputation as a batsman, or perhaps just because he looked much more approachable.Of course, it may also be because he organized the Quidditch World Cup.

But all in all, there is no doubt that Bagman is more popular than Pierce.Of course, even in the original work, he is more popular than the old Crouch.

But to a certain extent, Pierce is no less successful, as can be seen from Dumbledore's subsequent introduction to them.

"Mr. Bagman and Mr. Piers have worked tirelessly over the past few months to arrange the Triwizard Tournament," Dumbledore continued. "They will join me, Professor Karkaroff and Maxim Together with my wife, we will form a panel of judges to judge the efforts of the warriors.”

Yes, Crouch's work and achievements were directly placed on his head.After all, it is impossible for a dead person and a scapegoat to come back to life and compete with him.What's more, even if he survives, he will still have to face trial by the Ministry of Magic.

But no one cares about this now, because when Dumbledore said the word warrior, everyone's attention was focused on him and began to look forward to his next words.

At that moment, the entire auditorium fell silent, and Dumbledore noticed it all.He smiled slightly and said, "Mr. Filch, please bring up the box."

Then the administrator of Hogwarts suddenly appeared in everyone's sight from an unnoticed corner.He walked towards Dumbledore, holding in his hand a large wooden box inlaid with jewels. The box looked very old.

Everyone was staring at Filch and the box in his hand. He was receiving much more attention at this moment than he had received in the past year.

"Mr. Pierce and Mr. Bagman have carefully reviewed the specific events for this year's Warriors competition, and they have made many necessary arrangements for each event."

As Dumbledore spoke, Filch carefully placed the box on the table in front of him.

"There are three projects, taking place at different times throughout the school year, that will test the warriors in many different ways...test their talents in magic...test their courage and their wisdom... ...and, of course, their ability to overcome danger."

"at last..."
