Study Days at Hogwarts

  Chapter 889 Fighting the Dragon

  Bring away, subdue, and take the golden egg.

  This is Albert's plan in advance.

   is very simple.

   But the simpler the plan, the less error-prone.

  The Swedish Short-nosed Dragon was led away from the nest first, not for the convenience of stealing the golden eggs, but to prevent the dragon from accidentally destroying the nest of dragon eggs later.

   After entering the field, Albert was not in a hurry to find trouble with Fire Dragon. Before doing anything, he looked up and looked around to figure out the surrounding environment. This temporary magically built venue is slightly smaller than the Quidditch pitch, and there are many solid rocks around the venue, which should be shelters prepared by the organizers for the warriors to avoid the dragon's breath.

   If there were no such shelters, the fire dragon would just pounce on it and breathe out, and all the warriors would be out of luck.

   "Let us welcome the first warrior to appear: Mr. Albert Anderson!"

   In the stands, Bagman explained loudly, "Mr. Anderson has won many international awards in recent years, and he is currently the most promising Triwizard Cup warrior. Let us see how he responds."

  Albert! albert! albert...

   There was a burst of cheers from the stands, and people were shouting Albert's name.

Albert ignored Bagman's words, let alone the audience in the stands, and walked straight forward. He walked to a large pile of stones not far ahead for the warriors to avoid breathing, raised his wand and waved it lightly. After a while, the one-person tall rock was divided into several neat pieces by the cutting spell, and he began to concentrate on deforming one of the stones.

   A few seconds later, a male lion jumped down from the stone pile,

  As Albert waved his wand again, another eagle appeared above the stone.

"Very exciting, very powerful transfiguration. I think everyone should be able to guess Mr. Anderson's tactics. Do you think he can succeed?" Bagman almost lost his eyes when he saw the stones being transformed into lions and eagles. It protruded out, and he knew exactly how difficult it was to deform like this.

Taking advantage of his free time, Albert secretly glanced at the new missions he had just triggered. There are three in total: In addition to the expected "Picking up the Golden Egg", the second mission is "Fire Dragon Conqueror". Subdue a dragon, the rewards are rich, and the last task is to become a "dragon slayer".

  Let me slay a dragon?

Albert raised his head, glanced at the Swedish short-nosed dragon crouching in front of him, and considered the pros and cons of killing the guy in front of him. Items made of Swedish short-nosed dragon skin are sought after by people, so his eyes could not help but fall on the dragon slayer On the rich rewards of the task.

  In addition to a lot of experience, skill points, reputation and the title of dragon slayer, you can also get a whole set of fire dragon suit.

  Honestly, this is a great temptation, and it's far easier to "accidentally" kill a dragon than to subdue it.

   However, the repercussions of killing a dragon in a Triwizard Tournament might not be good. After all, the task of the dragon slayer can be saved for later, there is no need to rush for a while.

The Swedish short-nosed dragon snorted, as if feeling the malice emanating from the human being in front of him, the wings that had been half folded could not help but move, and those cold vertical pupils stared at Albert in front of him, as if Thinking about **** the human in front of him.

  The Swedish short-nosed dragon moved, and the malice on Albert's body made it inexplicably irritated. It was the feeling of being targeted by a predator. As a top predator, the Swedish Brachysaurus has never felt so bad. It shook its mouth, as if it was brewing something. After a while, it opened its mouth and sprayed a dazzling blue flame towards the humans in front of it.

   "Oh, my God, I dare say it's definitely over fifty feet." Bagman exclaimed.

  The audience in the stands couldn't help screaming, and many girls closed their eyes in panic, unable to bear to look at Albert who was about to be swallowed by the Swedish short-nosed dragon's breath.

  The screaming in the stands stopped suddenly, because everyone found that the blue breath that was attacking Albert was actually extinguished without warning when it approached Albert.

  Yes, the breath of the Swedish short-nosed dragon went out, as if someone had played a joke on Albert.

"Oh my god, it was too dangerous just now." Bagman shouted: "It's unbelievable that Mr. Anderson could easily extinguish the fire dragon's breath with one person's strength. You must know that at least three tamers are needed." Only the dragons can do it at the same time."

  Swedish short-nosed dragon snorted, spewed out a small cloud of blue flames, and slightly twisted its head, but the vertical pupil still stared at Albert, and it opened its mouth again.

   Albert looked at the fire dragon in front of him, and muttered, "Is it because the hatred is too big?"

In fact, Albert is now standing outside the theoretical breathing range of the Swedish short-nosed dragon. Under normal circumstances, the range of the dragon's breath is about 20 feet, but I don't know what happened. The breath of this Swedish short-nosed dragon range far beyond its limits.

  The original plan should be to let the lion attract the firepower, but now it seems that wearing a dragon skin to fight a fire dragon is like a warrior using the taunt skill, which directly attracts all the firepower.

In fact, Albert guessed wrong. The Swedish short-nosed dragon stared at him not because of the dragon suit on his body, but because of the malice that Albert inadvertently exuded just now, the desire to kill the creature in front of him. The malice of the Swedish short-nosed dragon completely annoyed it.

  However, Albert didn't panic. He had already made various preparations. How to deal with the dragon's breath and how to deal with the current situation naturally had a way.

  However, the dragon trainers who had been standing by were feeling a little bad, because the time accumulated before the Swedish short-nosed dragon exhaled was much longer than other times.

   This is not a good sign.

  That means that the next breath will be extremely dangerous, and the extinguishing spell may not be effective. This is the judgment of the dragon trainers after spending time with the fire dragon day and night.

   They exchanged glances with each other. If Albert couldn't hold on, they immediately rushed forward and used the extinguishing spell on the fire dragon. Even if Albert lost the qualification to continue the game, he couldn't just be burned to death by the fire dragon.

  Not only the dragon trainer felt that way, but even Albert frowned, because the fire dragon didn't breathe out immediately, and it seemed to be really... accumulating strength.

Feeling that his life was threatened, Albert gave up using the extinguishing spell, but started chanting spells and waving his wand. At the moment when the fire dragon's breath struck, the big rocks that Albert had crushed before began to gather in front of him, A solid stone barrier was formed directly, and the fire dragon's breath blasted on the stone barrier, making the stone barrier become hot and red, but it still couldn't hurt Albert who was hiding behind the barrier.

  At this moment, not only the audience in the stands, but even the professors were sweating coldly for Albert.

Because the dragon's breath did not stop immediately this time, it was even more terrifying and longer than before. If only the extinguishing spell was used, it might not be able to completely extinguish this long breath. The breath of the Swedish short-nosed dragon might take Albert The whole person was reduced to ashes.

"careful."

  I don't know who screamed.

  I saw that the Swedish short-nosed dragon had already flown out of the lair, and rushed directly towards Albert. Its tail slammed on the hot stone barrier, smashing the stone barrier directly, and the gravel splashed.

   "My God."

  The audience in the stands stood up one after another, watching this scene in shock.

Roar!

   A deafening lion roar suddenly sounded, and a male lion rushed out from nowhere, attracting the fire dragon's attention.

  The active provocation of the male lion annoyed the Swedish Short-nosed Dragon. It felt offended. The so-called king of beasts was just a prey in the eyes of the fire dragon. Now the prey dared to take the initiative to attack itself?

  The fire dragon gathered its strength and spewed flames at the lion, but the cunning prey quickly retreated into the stone pile, avoiding the breath.

The Swedish short-nosed dragon was extremely irritated, especially that it was its prey that provoked it. Draw aside the lion that roared at it.

  The poor male lion was directly injured and fell limp on the ground. He didn't look like the king of all beasts, but he had already completed his task very well: attracting the fire dragon's attention.

  When the Swedish short-nosed dragon roared excitedly after finishing its prey, countless hot stones hit it, directly turning its roar into a painful wail.

Albert was still standing there unscathed, even the flame breath of the fire dragon and the bursting of the stone barrier could not hurt him. A small number of Slytherin students who saw this scene sighed. They seemed to wish that Albert He was burned to ashes by the breath just now, or crushed to death by gravel.

"Oh my God, the Swedish Short-nosed Dragon can't do anything to Mr. Anderson at all. He is still as calm and calm as ever, without any harm at all." Bagman shouted excitedly, "Look, it's our warrior's turn this time What is he doing now?"

   Not only Bagman was puzzled, but even other audience members were also puzzled. The tip of Albert's wand was spewing out a chain-like smoke, and it was directly enveloping the Swedish Short-nosed Dragon.

The fire dragon roared anxiously, shook its head, and even spewed flames to try to disperse the smoke that enveloped itself, but the previous breath seemed to have consumed a lot of its strength, and the current breath seemed weak and had little effect. Because the smoke was still coming out of Albert's wand continuously.

  Finally, the Swedish short-nosed dragon became more and more anxious, and directly set his sights on the culprit of all this. It wanted to kill the human being who made it feel dangerous.

  Before the action of the Swedish short-nosed dragon, the eagle that was soaring in the sky suddenly swooped down, and its claws grabbed the dragon's eyes.

  When the Swedish short-nosed dragon sideways avoided the sneak attack, all the attention was attracted by the eagle.

Albert swung his wand suddenly, and the smoke surrounding the Swedish Short-Snouted Dragon suddenly turned into chains. With his left hand swung down suddenly, all the chains sank into the ground, and the smoke that was about to spread its wings to chase the eagle The Swedish Brachysaurus was firmly trapped.

  The sudden change startled the Swedish Short-nosed Dragon. It flapped its wings desperately, only to find that the chains wrapped around its body completely bound it to the ground.

  Even if he tried his best to break the chains on his body, he still couldn't fly. As Albert raised his wand, drawing an elegant arc in the air like a conductor, more and more chains of smoke were wrapped around the Swedish Short-nosed Dragon.

A terrible roar sounded on the field, and the Swedish short-nosed dragon once again gathered strength, and suddenly spewed out a large amount of dragon breath, almost all the chains connected to the ground were evaporated, and when it was about to flap its wings to fly, some stones followed Ai Bo Te waved his palm and slammed heavily on the body of the Swedish Short-nosed Dragon. Amidst the painful roar, it lost the only chance to break free.

  More chains sprang out from the ground, completely entangled the feet of the Swedish short-nosed dragon, and more chains tightly entangled the Swedish short-nosed dragon and bound it to the ground.

   "My God, it's unbelievable. I hope Mr. Anderson can be gentle with our little cutie, after all, it looks pathetic enough." Bagman said in a light-hearted tone.

  With Albert's wand waving, the earth seemed to become a shackle, binding the fire dragon firmly to the ground. The haughty head of the Swedish short-nosed dragon was also slammed to the ground by the lion, and the mouth of the fire dragon was immediately bound by the shackles formed by the earth, and the whole body could not move.

  The scarred lion stepped on the fire dragon's head, raised his head and let out a deafening roar. This is probably the most glorious moment in the life of the king of beasts.

   "Okay, look, Mr. Anderson subdued a fire dragon with such ease, it's unbelievable." Bagman shouted excitedly. He dared to say that it would be difficult to see such a wonderful picture again in his life.

Just before everyone could react, an eagle descended from the sky and placed the golden egg in its claws on Albert's open palm. When everyone's attention was attracted by Albert's fight with the fire dragon At that time, the eagle did not know when it brought the golden egg from the nest for Albert.

   Albert held up the golden egg in his hand, announcing his victory to everyone.

"My God, our warriors subdued the ferocious dragon and got the golden egg easily in just a few minutes. I dare say that the most powerful dragon tamers can't do this. Let us do it for you." The warmest applause and best wishes for Mr. Anderson's unprecedented feat." Bagman roared loudly.

  Albert! albert! albert!

  In the auditorium, the Hogwarts students desperately waved their red hats and shouted Albert's name, and the red waves rose and fell with waves of sound.

Albert put down the golden egg and thanked everyone for their support, followed by screams, applause, and applause, the sound was deafening. At that moment, it seemed to be back to the supporters cheering after the Irish team won the Quidditch World Cup final The scene of shouting.

  Of course, not everyone has a smile on their faces, and a few students in Slytherin House who hate Albert have very ugly faces.

  The more successful Albert is, the more shame it will be for them.

  Madam Maxim of Beauxbaton's expression was a little stiff, but it soon turned into a helpless sigh deep in her heart.

  Durmstrang's headmaster, Karkaroff, had a dark expression on his face. He obviously realized that Albert's great success was a huge threat to Krum.

   Krum is almost impossible to catch up with Albert in points, unless...

  In order to let Durmstrang win, Karkaroff had some bad thoughts in his mind.
