The Alchemist of Harry Potter

Chapter 887 Traditional Skills

"It seems that Albert has hit the mark."

In the room, Yanila, who was playing wizard chess with Furong, looked sideways at the tall figure outside the window, and said softly to the person playing chess in front of her: "Mrs. Maxim will really try her best to help you figure out the content of the first project What is it?"

"You don't sleep at night and come to play wizard chess with me just to tell me these nonsense?" Fleur frowned deeply, and her eyes fell on the well-dressed Madam Maxim, very puzzled by Hogg Watts' hunting ground guard, what attracts their headmaster? Is it because of himself that Mrs. Maxim agreed to the invitation?
"Of course not, I'm just here to ask you some information."

"What information?"

"Information about Albert?" After meeting Isobel in Hogsmeade, Yanila suddenly realized how little she knew about Albert.

"I don't know much about him than you do. I really don't understand why you like him, just because he is handsome?" Fleur really couldn't understand Yanila's obsession with Albert.

She admitted that Albert was handsome, talented, and famous, but Yanila herself was not inferior to Albert, or even more generous.

"You have a really ordinary eye for seeing people." Yanila sneered.

"No matter how ordinary, it's better than you staring at other people's men." Fu Rong retorted.

Furong was a little depressed, but she had to admit that Yanila's family had a good vision, but some behaviors were really criticized.

"Tell me, what do you want?" Yanila asked.

"I haven't thought about it yet. I'll talk about it when the time comes. But, I don't think you can catch him." Furong didn't hide her gloating, and began to recall: "I remember the first time I saw him and knew his name. In the letter, he said that he met a very interesting friend in the UK, and asked me if I want to get to know him, and I can try to become a pen pal with him and keep in touch with him by letter.”

At that time, Fu Rong was really surprised. After all, his father's friends were all about the same age, and she was baffled by the fact that he wanted to introduce her to him.

"Later, the first time I saw each other was after the International Wizards Chess tournament, when Albert Anderson had just won the international championship, and I didn't know that the friend named Anderson mentioned by my father was about the same age as me.

"However, my cousin Louise knows him and also likes him. It is said that they are pen pals and often communicate by letter. As for how they met, maybe it was introduced by my uncle. Who knows?"

"Then, not long ago, I saw him again at a relative's wedding. At that time, Anderson took the woman named Isobel to the wedding." Furong thought for a while and added: "At the wedding , he hangs out with a group of well-known wizards, they seem to know each other, and they have a good relationship."

"Oh, by the way, last summer, I met him again. At that time, he was with his girlfriend. I heard that he seemed to be engaged." Fu Rong's face was full of unconcealable gloating: "At that time they brought The engagement ring, Cousin Louise, has had a long time to grieve over it."

"Engaged?" Yanila's expression froze and she asked in disbelief, "He just came of age this year, right?"

"I'm sure they're engaged. There's no need for them to lie." Fleur looked at the wonderful expression on Yanila's face, and was quite satisfied with the damage this heavy news had done to Yanila.

"So, you are hopeless, maybe there are a dozen other girls like you who have a crush on him in front of you, coveting him." Furong made no secret of her ridicule, and planned to use this to hit Yanila.

It took Yanila a while to recover, and after noticing the mockery on Fleur's face, she said calmly, "I'm not vying for his wife's position."

"Yeah, you just want to be his lover." Fu Rong sneered, "I really don't understand what your family is thinking."

"This is not something you should consider. Madam Maxim should be back soon. I think she will tell you what the first project is. Think about how to pass the first project of the Triwizard Tournament." Ya Nila moved the chess pieces and mercilessly checked Furong to death, ending the game that lasted for half an hour.

Not long after Yanila got up to go back to rest, Madam Maxim came back and came to chat with Fleur about the first project.

"Sit down," Madam Maxim said straight to the point, "I just figured out the first item of the Triwizard Tournament."

At this moment, Fu Rong felt very uncomfortable. She once thought that Mrs. Maxim would not help her cheat, but Albert was obviously right. Cheating was completely normal in the Triwizard Tournament.

Fleur quietly waited for Madam Maxim to say the content of the first project.

"Warriors need to face the fire dragon. I just saw a group of dragon trainers bring four fire dragons in the woods." Mrs. Maxim directly pointed out the danger to Fleur.

"Warriors need to fight dragons?"

Fleur stared blankly at Madam Maxim, and remembered again that she dismissed Albert's words in the bar, thinking that the other party could not subdue a fire dragon.

However, can he defeat a fire dragon?

Obviously not.

"Of course not. You need to pass by the fire dragon to get the golden egg that the organizer put in the fire dragon's lair. Only the warrior who gets the golden egg can pass the first project." Madam Maxim comforted softly, " Don't worry, you don't need to defeat the fire dragon, you just need to find a chance to steal the golden egg, and I will help you find a way."

"It's not easy."

Fu Rong's heart has never been so tense and anxious as it is now, and she even suspects that she will be burned to ashes by the dragon flames before she gets close to the fire dragon's lair.

"Fire dragons have weaknesses, as long as we target them..."

"You mean eyes? But I don't think it's a good idea to provoke a dragon." Fleur remembered Albert's weakness in talking about fire dragons, and immediately realized what Madam Maxim wanted to say, but she didn't want to use eye disease Curse, even if it succeeds, she still needs to face a raging fire dragon.

"No, I'm not talking about the Eye Sickness Curse, that's quite reckless." Mrs. Maxim had been thinking about how to deal with the fire dragon just now, "I think you should use your strengths."

"Play to my strengths?"

"You are very good at charm magic, aren't you?" Madame Maxime said.

"But, does charm magic work on fire dragons?" Fu Rong expressed her doubts.

"No, I mean hypnosis. I know a very powerful hypnosis magic. Your talent and wand are very suitable for this kind of magic. As long as you use it, it will definitely make the fire dragon fall into a hypnotic state. Then you can take advantage of the fire dragon When you are drowsy, steal the golden egg quietly. It is quite stupid to confront the fire dragon head-on. As we all know, at least eight dragon tamers are needed to subdue a dragon." Madam Maxim is very clear about the purpose of the first project. The key is how to get the golden egg, not subdue a fire dragon, which tests the bravery and wisdom of the warriors.

In fact, in the past, it was really possible to become a uniform fire dragon. It is not for nothing that the Triwizard Tournament was criticized for being extremely dangerous.

"We will start training tonight. As for the eye sickness spell you mentioned, we will keep it as a backup plan. To be honest, we don't have much advantage. Karkaroff should sneak away to check the content of the first project tonight. I Doubt that he will let his warriors use the Eye Sickness Curse to deal with the dragon." Madam Maxim did not have any expectations for Karkaroff's integrity, "As for Harry Potter and Albert Anderson, they should also know about the first project Content, they all have a good relationship with Hagrid, I think Hagrid will definitely let them know about the dragon."

Fu Rong was silent again, because she remembered what Albert said in the bar: All the players are cheating, and the whole game is like a joke.

Isn't that the case now?

Mrs. Maxim had misunderstood Hagrid. Hagrid really hadn't told Albert and Harry about the dragon.In fact, Hagrid did think about doing that, but Mrs. Maxime's romantic date and the excitement of seeing the dragon made Hagrid forget everything else.

No way, without Little Barty's instigation and exhortation, the excited Hagrid would easily forget the others. Maybe, when he thinks about it tomorrow, he will tell Harry and Albert, but who knows what tomorrow will be What about the situation?

As for Barty Jr., he had completely given up on helping Harry win the championship, and naturally he didn't have so much time to deal with Harry's stupidity, especially after Dumbledore had some doubts about him, any move would be unwise.What's more, with the help of Black and Lupine, Harry should not die easily. If Harry really died in the Triwizard Tournament, it might be a good thing for the Dark Lord, at least it means that the so-called savior is not qualified to stand In front of the Dark Lord.

Harry Potter naturally didn't know about it. Because of Albert's relationship, he had already known about the fire dragon in advance, and he had already made complete preparations. It can be said that he had the most confidence in himself besides Albert. warriors.

However, something happened the next day that made Albert feel extremely weird. Someone came to tell him that the first project needed to face the fire dragon.

"It seems that you already knew?"

Yanila noticed Albert's calm expression, and knew that Albert must know about the fire dragon, but Yanila still came to tell Albert that it is natural to do the thing of gaining favor. As for where he knew, it is natural It was Fleur who told her, and Albert knew about it anyway.

"Aren't you worried that Beauxbaton's students will regard you as a traitor?" Albert asked with a strange expression.

He naturally knew where Beauxbaton's news came from, but hearing a student of Beauxbaton tell him himself still made him feel inexplicably weird.

I think that gamekeeper named Hagrid will probably tell you, don't you get along very well?
"Then you still come to tell me about this?" Albert asked with a smile.

"I just feel that that guy is very unreliable. Maybe he was too excited because he was going on a date with Mrs. Maxim, and maybe he forgot about it."

Albert was silent, because Hagrid hadn't told them about the fire dragon so far. At least Yanila was right. Hagrid was too excited to date Madame Maxime and forgot about it.

Of course, it may also be too excited to see the fire dragon.

Who knows?

I guess I forgot.

Anyway, Hagrid has always been unreliable in Albert's impression.

If Albert is more dissatisfied, the task of "figuring out the content of the first project of the Triwizard Tournament" may fail.

However, the most embarrassing thing about this incident was not with Albert, but shortly after Yanila left, Albert told Hermione the news, and Hermione told Harry the news, haha Li didn't expect that the news about the fire dragon came from a student of Beauxbatons.

Although they had already heard about the fire dragon from Albert, all three were puzzled by Hagrid's defection.

"I think Hagrid is probably fascinated by Mrs. Maxime, the headmaster of Beauxbatons." Hermione finally came to this conclusion.

Maybe, when Hagrid recovered from his great excitement, he'd tell them about the dragon.

"Maybe, he won't remember until the 24th." Ron also felt the inexplicable irony of this incident.

"I suddenly found that Albert's words are really sharp and correct," said Harry. In fact, he doesn't care much about the game now, just like what Albert said: Everyone is cheating, and the whole game is like a game. A joke, what a warrior's glory, that's a complete joke.

"It turns out that, except for Dumbledore, no one else has such a noble character. Look at what happened on the Quidditch Cup this year." Ron sarcastically sarcastically. The outcome of the Tournament is no longer important, what matters is Harry's safety.

As for the fire dragon, after they consolidated their foundation again with the help of Sirius and Remus, they met Hagrid on the way back to school. It should be said that Hagrid seemed to be waiting for them on purpose.

"Harry, I have something important to tell you." Hagrid said mysteriously.

"We already know about the fire dragon." Hermione comforted.

"You already know." Hagrid was surprised.

"Albert told us. Just this morning, a student of Beauxbatons told Albert the news, and Albert told Harry."

All three of them noticed the embarrassed expression on Hagrid's face, because he didn't tell them the news about Albert and Harry himself or in a letter, but got the news from Beauxbatons.

"You don't have to worry about Hagrid." Hermione comforted her intimately: "You forgot something, Albert can do divination, he knew about the fire dragon a long time ago, so Harry has been training against the fire dragon .”

"Oh, come on Harry, as for Albert, I never thought he needed to be worried." Hagrid said awkwardly.

"You shouldn't have said that just now." After they walked away, Ron looked at Hermione reproachfully: "He even forgot about Harry and Albert."

"He didn't do it on purpose, you probably don't understand that feeling!"

"I don't understand, but what do you think will happen if Harry faces the fire dragon without knowing it?" Ron now understands a little bit, why cheating can become a tradition in the Triwizard Tournament.

If it was only on the day of the competition that they knew that they needed to face the fire dragon, Albert would probably be the only one who could calmly face the fire dragon. It would be great for others to not be frightened, let alone figure out a way to deal with the dangerous fire dragon in a short time .

What tests a warrior's ability in magic, superiority, courage, theory, reasoning ability, and ability to overcome danger are all bullshit. Even if a 30-year-old wizard is thrown in front of a fire dragon, he will not be frightened and his legs will tremble. It's not bad to lose your life.
