The Grey Wizard of Hogwarts

Time moves forward slowly, not shifted by human will.

Whether it is Anton, Dumbledore, Grindelwald, etc. who are immersed in the research of "human goblin Animagus transfiguration", or Voldemort, who is undergoing rapid changes in the American Magic Association, they all have to put down what they are doing. .

Because, the time for the fourth level of the Top 100 Tournament has arrived.

Yes.

Voldemort once again came to the scene of the Top 100 Tournament.

People suddenly remembered the young version of Tom Riddle being bombarded by Anton's Killing Curse, and the horrible plasma magic effect went straight into outer space.

And now, a middle-aged version of Tom Riddle reappears.

Perhaps this is nothing to top elders such as Dumbledore, but to every ordinary wizard and informed Muggle, the shock produced by this is absolutely terrifying.

Yes, people learned about the Dark Lord Voldemort's ascension to the top of the Magic Congress from the newspapers.

But to see the Dark Lord on the magic mirror, or even at the game site, that kind of intuitive feeling, strong horror, and absolute excitement.

How can he not be killed?

Obviously, no one has an answer for them.

Even Anton, who always liked to share his knowledge, would not spread any knowledge about Horcrux magic, let alone Dumbledore and Grindelwald.

After all, the Horcrux, for the old wizard Fiennes, is a technology that needs to be upgraded after death that can be used for reference to continue living. For Anton, it is just a light wave of the wand.

But there are few people who can do it.

I am afraid that the vast majority of wizards who attempt to enter the world of Horcrux magic will inevitably start from the perspective of killing.

Immortality is destined to be a domain that only exists in top wizards.

If ordinary people can't play it, it will only cause disaster.

"Ladies and gentlemen!"

"Welcome back to our Top 100 Tournament!"

Lockhart excitedly yelled at the magic mirror. Today he is wearing a huge wizard hat in the shape of a fire dragon. In order to match the shape of this 'Black Dragon of the Heshidia Islands', he specially selected a set of black wizard hats. The gown is embroidered with the patterns of countless flame mountains with dark red needles and threads.

It is said that the flower peacock, who has a jumping mind and never knows how to write death, has registered with the American Magic Association to apply for a clothing factory, and plans to operate with the goblins at Gringotts.

I'm not afraid that Lao Deng will kill him.

"You don't need oars to row a boat, you rely on waves all your life", maybe this sentence can be used to describe Lockhart perfectly.

"Compared to the previous three knockout rounds, this one is now a qualifying round."

"The current players are all the top 100 warriors of the Top 100 Tournament. Each of them will receive their honor, but our competition must continue after all!"

"I believe that everyone who pays attention to the event information has learned the rules of this competition from the "Wizard Event News" in advance."

"Warriors need to submit their areas of expertise to the event committee. After drawing a number plate to determine the lineup, the Warriors can choose each other's areas of expertise to compete."

"Two out of three games."

"The tie goes to overtime."

Lockhart flipped over the reminder card in his hand, "For example, our contestant, Hermione Granger from Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Witchcraft and Wizardry, her registered areas of expertise include 'spells, transfiguration, history of magic, ancient runes, Arithmancy and Astronomy '6 term."

"Then let's take a look at this contestant, Curtis Franco from the Waggadu School of Magic. She has signed up for three fields of expertise including 'spells, ancient runes, and divination'."

"Then, after these two warriors have a 'magic duel', the loser has the right to choose one of the 'spells and ancient runes' in the second match in the overlapping fields that they are both good at. challenge."

"And if they only signed up for one basic item 'Magic Duel' and no other fields of expertise, they have to accept the loser's second challenge in all their fields of expertise."

"I think such an event will be exciting enough!"

"Let every warrior show his best side!"

"Seek more possibilities!"

"Maybe we will see the emergence of little wizards who can overwhelm all warriors with only the basic items of 'Magic Duel'. Maybe we will see the emergence of little wizards who show abilities far beyond ordinary wizards in 'Potion Science'. Maybe we We will see more exciting pictures.”

"The fourth stage of the competition is expected to be held for 8 days, and there will be a total of 7 rounds of such pairwise competitions."

"And a ranking match in the same group."

"We will decide the qualifying position on the last day according to the number of games won."

"At the same time, the winners of the top 10 will be qualified for the finals!"

"Then, today we will start the first round of the fourth round of qualifying competition. Let our warriors come to the stage to draw opponents."

"The number of participants this time is 98!"

The venue for this competition was held at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Witchcraft and Wizardry. Less than a hundred contestants and hundreds of spectators sat together in the auditorium that had been cast with the Untraceable Stretch Curse, waiting for the result of the draw.

The schoolmates huddled close to the water and watched curiously. Percy and Ginny in the crowd looked at the group of winners full of disappointment. Unwilling, they began to pray for Ron again.

In the past, this elder brother/brother whom everyone looked down on has now become their hope. Maybe, Ron can create a miracle again? After all, it was said that Anton had taught him a lot.

Everyone is waiting for the good show to start, and Anton is also watching a good show with a new face.

This time Dumbledore obviously couldn't tolerate Voldemort's arrival like last time. If Bella and Tom's loyal Death Eaters hadn't taken the opportunity to sneak into every corner of the arena, I'm afraid Dumbledore would definitely not be able to bear it. Draws out his wand and banishes Tom on the spot.

Voldemort had clearly caught Dumbledore's weakness.

Yes, he should have recognized such a thing long ago.

Why didn't the great Professor Dumbledore let him stay in the school as a professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts?

Putting aside so many high-sounding words, I am afraid that the most instinctive reaction to protect the things I care about in my heart is the root, right?

As the saying goes, one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers, Dumbledore is willing to let a person with top wizard potential and ambition stay together in the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry that he cares about very much?

aha~

Looking at the crazy and patient Professor Dumbledore, Tom Riddle was extremely proud at the moment.

This extremely indifferent professor doesn't care about other people's life or death, doesn't care about the Ministry of Magic, doesn't care so much, but he cares so much about this Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry that has been guarding for more than a hundred years!

What an interesting topic...

Dumbledore has feelings for this place, and Tom also has feelings for Hogwarts. He left the dirty Muggle orphanage and started the best time of his life, why not here.

The professor Horace Slughorn who loved him the most promised to pave the way for him in the Ministry of Magic. Isn't it better than a professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts?

Of course not, he just wanted to stay in this place, in the place he once considered home.

But yo, he's not like Dumbledore.

What he couldn't get to Voldemort, really didn't mind destroying it!

Hey hey hey...

This time, the offense and defense are different~

It's just that, in the referee team sitting on the stage at this time, there are not only Dumbledore, Voldemort and Anton watching the fun, but also Gellert Grindelwald.

Lao Fu took advantage of Lao Deng's weakness.

Lao Ge can see it.

He just beckoned Lockhart to come over and gave some instructions.

After a while, countless media reporters rushed over, frantically taking pictures of Voldemort.

They never dared to do such a thing in the past!

Just kidding, taking that kind of dazzling camera to take pictures of the Dark Lord is simply courting death!

But ah...

Here's where it gets interesting.

At this moment, Lao Fu was not only not angry, but smiled more and more gently, enduring the disgust and resistance in his heart, enduring the hand that was about to pull out his wand, and the laughing 'Dumbledore' was full.

"Your Excellency, Chairman Riddle, do you have any suggestions or opinions for the referee team who participated in this competition?"

At this time, the one who dared to come up for an interview was Lockhart, who was always desperate.

As if he was stuffing his head into a tiger's mouth, he squeezed desperately towards Voldemort, so that the reporter could photograph him, Voldemort, Dumbledore, Grindelwald and Anton beside him.

Oh huh~

This photo, he can show off for a lifetime!

Voldemort looked at this guy with a bright smile, and for some reason remembered the standard smirk of his apprentice Anton, and finally found the source, so he couldn't help being happy with the smile that also appeared on his face.

Besides... Your Excellency Chairman Riddle... Oh Ho Ho Ho, what a wonderful title.

"Your Excellency Speaker Riddle, can you speak?"

"Of course~" The smile on Lao Fu's face became more and more gentle.

He really started to expound some of his views. As a top wizard, after such a long time and era in the wizarding world, he often thinks about the future of the entire wizarding community at a very high level. In fact, he has too many words To speak.

He is so serious.

It's just that the more seriously he talked, those reporters began to slap their noses on their faces.

"May I ask Speaker Riddle, did you come here this time to deliberately target Professor Albus Dumbledore?"

"Excuse me, Speaker Riddle, everyone wants to know, did Principal Dumbledore bring you out of the orphanage?"

"I would like to ask Speaker Riddle, it is said that Dean Anthony Weiss (Azkaban Academy) regards Barty Crouch Jr. as an invisible reward for this game. What do you think of this issue?"

"Excuse me, Speaker Riddle..."

Those questions became sharper and sharper one by one, until the smile on Voldemort's face became a little stiff.

If it weren't for the sensible Lockhart who asked some very comfortable topics from time to time~www.NovelMTL.com~, he might not be able to bear it.

But in the end, they all endured it.

Smile, is so gentle.

So stiff.

Quack quack...

Anton secretly gave Grindelwald a thumbs up. Grindelwald raised his eyebrows slightly at him, and took a sip from his teacup in awe.

Dumbledore curled his lips aside, but his face was no longer tense, with an inexplicable strangeness.

he always feels...

Gellert's move is not only disgusting Tom, but also seems to be mocking himself?

Anton who was having fun, Gellert who was playing tricks, and Tom who came to disgust him, none of them were good!
