After a loud bang, the five people who were originally sitting on the referee's bench appeared out of thin air outside the competition venue. Their faces were ugly, and they were obviously pissed off by the crazy behavior of the students.
"It was so dangerous, I thought I was going to die!"
Bagman beat his chest with lingering fear and glared at the culprit with dissatisfaction. No one expected that Karkaroff's "explanation" directly aroused the dissatisfaction of all the audience, and even caused them to throw curses directly at the referee's seat.
"Dumbledore, this is how Hogwarts treats..." Karkaroff struck preemptively, preparing to put the blame on Dumbledore.
"Okay, Karkaroff."
Mrs. Maxim heard a burst of cheers from the stands and interrupted impatiently: "I really don't understand why you gave Anderson a 1 point. Don't tell me it's because of his Muggle wizard status.
.Now that everything is fine, how are you going to clean up the mess?"
Karkaroff's face instantly darkened, he let out a dissatisfied "hum" and turned around to leave.
"It's really annoying." Bagman looked at Karkaroff's leaving figure with unconcealed disgust on his face: "I really don't understand why the Durmstrang Academy of Magic would find such a guy.
Principal, no wonder Durmstrang’s reputation has always been very bad.”
"Okay Ludo, we should now think about how to solve the problem." Dumbledore said gently.
"How to solve it? As long as Karkarov does not serve as a referee, all problems can be solved." Bagman thinks that Karkarov should be kicked out of the referee team. What's wrong with a guy who can't even be fair and impartial?
Being qualified to be a referee is just to cause trouble for them, "However, I have never seen the students of Hogwarts so united!"
"It can only be said that Mr. Anderson has extraordinary charm." Dumbledore asked Crouch: "Barty, how do you think this matter should be resolved?"
"The game will continue." Barty Crouch came back from his trance and said slowly: "If necessary, Karkaroff can be removed from the referee team."
"I have no objection, but I don't want to have the same experience again." Mrs. Maxim was also very dissatisfied with Karkaroff.
Some things should be done as soon as they are done, but when everyone is furious, you still treat the audience as fools. How stupid do you have to be to do that?
"Let's just take the average!" Bagman suggested: "For the position vacated by Karkaroff, just take the average of the scores of the four judges. I think this is definitely more fair."
"Okay." Barty Crouch did not object. There must be a solution to this matter. Karkaroff felt embarrassed and ran away first, but the subsequent game must continue.
"I have no objection." Madame Maxime agreed.
"Then let's go back and re-grade!" Dumbledore said happily. Although there was a faint smile on his face, there was no smile in his eyes.
Even Dumbledore never thought that when this incident happened like this, even though it was Karkaroff who caused it, it would eventually have a bad impact on Hogwarts.
The four people returned to the referee's bench that was damaged by the explosion. They didn't see Karkarov, so they stopped throwing things at the referee's bench.
After all, everyone only hates Karkaroff.
Dumbledore waved his wand lightly to repair the referee's seat that had been blown away by the spell. After several others took their seats again, Bagman cleared his throat and said: "For some reason, Mr. Karkaroff is no longer serving as the referee for the time being.
For the referee of the Triwizard Tournament, the position vacated by him will be calculated based on the average of the four referees, so..."
Full marks! Full marks! Full marks!
People were shouting from the auditorium, but a few faint noises of Karkaroff eating shit could also be heard.
This result is still satisfactory after all. The most important thing for them is that Karkaroff no longer serves as the referee and the warriors of the Triwizard Tournament can receive fair scores.
"Ahem, the game continues!" Bagman heard the whistle blowing and shouted loudly: "Let us welcome today's second warrior, Miss Fleur Delacour from Beauxbatons!"
In the auditorium, Albert and Isobel sat side by side. The two sipped popcorn and whispered intimately. After hearing Bagman's shout, they both looked at the playing field.
.
"How do you think Miss Delacour will pass the competition?" Isobel took the cup of black tea from Albert's hand, bit the straw and took a sip and asked.
"I don't know, she probably won't fight against the Welsh Green Dragon head-on." Albert looked at Fleur who was observing the surrounding area and guessed: "I think she will probably find a way to steal the golden egg."
"Maybe, she will use the eye disease spell." Katrina couldn't help but interjected.
"The probability of Krum using the Eye Spell is relatively high, which is more in line with Durmstrang's style of behavior." Albert speculated, "Mrs. Maxim should let her use her advantages."
"Advantage?" Katrina asked in a weird tone. "Ogle a dragon?"
Fleur first tried to use the Flying Curse on the golden egg, but it undoubtedly had no effect.
She could only start taking action according to the original plan, using the cover of the surrounding rocks to slowly move closer to the Welsh Green Dragon.
Fortunately for her, the Welsh green dragon seemed unwilling to leave its lair, giving her the opportunity to close the distance so that the spell could hit the fire dragon's eyes and hypnotize it.
The Welsh Green Dragon suddenly stared warily at Fleur, who was getting closer, and blew out a stream of breath at her, causing the beautiful silver-haired girl to give up and move on.
Fleur hesitated for a moment, raised her wand and cast magic on the Welsh Green Dragon.
"Oh, I'm not sure whether this is wise. As we all know, it is difficult for ordinary magic to penetrate the fire dragon's skin. This will only anger it."
Fleur's spell successfully hit the Welsh Green Dragon's eyes, successfully causing it to fall into a semi-hypnotic state.
"Oh my God, Miss Delacour has hypnotized a fire dragon. Look, she is going to succeed!" Bagman shouted excitedly.
Fleur quietly approached the fire dragon's lair, preparing to take the golden egg under the eyes of the Welsh Green Dragon. The Welsh Green Dragon snored and spit out a stream of breath, which frightened Fleur into hiding, but the corner of her skirt was still rubbed by the flames.
It's gone too far.
Fleur had no choice but to retreat behind the rock in embarrassment, and used her wand to conjure water to put out the fire.
Just when she was about to continue getting closer to the lair, the Welsh Green Dragon woke up.
"Oh...it's just a little bit close. What a pity!" Bagman couldn't help but sigh. Fleur had already touched the side of the nest and was almost able to get the golden egg.
"Do you think she'll succeed?"
"Yes, but it's very risky. I don't recommend doing that. It's simply betting your own life." Albert guessed Fleur's plan.
Once the fire dragon wakes up, Fleur will be dead before the dragon tamer has time to react.
However, Furong obviously has no intention of giving up and is preparing to repeat her old trick. However, it is not easy to hypnotize the fire dragon.
As Bagman said, the fire dragon skin can resist most magic. Fleur's many attempts finally annoyed the Welsh Green Dragon. It flapped its wings and flew towards the rock where Fleur was hiding, and stretched out its claws to sweep at her.
.
"Be careful...my God, it was so dangerous just now."
Fleur almost followed the lion's footsteps, but with better luck, she threw herself to the side when the sharp claws swept by, and awkwardly avoided the fatal blow.
However, the fire dragon has opened its mouth, ready to burn the prey that provokes it to ashes, and the dragon trainers on both sides are preparing to rush out.
Fleur, who was lying on the ground, looked at the ferocious fire dragon, raised her wand, pointed it at its eyes and recited a spell.
The fire dragon was hypnotized again.
Furong rolled and crawled towards the fire dragon's lair and picked up the golden egg hidden in the nest of dragon eggs.
"Look, everyone, she has succeeded." Bagman's expression suddenly froze, "Be careful, my God, it has woken up!"
The Welsh Green Dragon glared at Fleur in annoyance, obviously very annoyed with the egg thief in front of it. It opened its mouth and blew out a stream of breath towards Fleur.
Fleur was petrified!
The audience screamed in fear, and some people even closed their eyes in fear.
Just when the breath of the Welsh green dragon was about to burn Hibiscus to death, the dragon's breath suddenly went out.
The dragon tamer, who had been prepared for a long time, rushed into the field as soon as Furong got the golden egg, extinguished the breath that was about to burn Furong to ashes, and used a stun spell on it at the same time, and finally managed to control it.
situation.
Fleur's score was not high. Except for Madame Maxime who gave it 9 points, Dumbledore and Bagman both gave it 8 points, and Crouch gave it 7 points, for a total of 40 points.
"Miss Delacour's tactics were indeed successful, but unfortunately some accidents occurred at the end, which directly affected the final score!" Bagman commented, "If Miss Delacour gets the golden egg and everything goes smoothly,
If you get rid of the fire dragon, your score will be at least 45 points."
"She was lucky that the dragon tamers reacted quickly enough, otherwise she would have turned into a charred corpse." Albert felt that if "Harry Potter" were not a "fairy tale", this Della
Miss Kuhl has probably turned into a charred corpse.
"It seems that I have to be more careful." Albert murmured. Although the probability was low, he did not want to become Digory's scapegoat for no reason.
Barty Crouch Jr.!
You have to be prepared, he will never give the experience package any chance.
"What's wrong?" Isobel asked.
"It's nothing." Albert looked at the busy dragon tamer and said softly, "I just think the Triwizard Tournament is really unreliable. No wonder such a competition is stopped."
"Then why are you still participating?" Katrina asked puzzledly.
"To fulfill someone's wish." Albert said calmly.
"who?"
Albert didn't intend to answer, and Isobel also knew the answer. The two looked at each other, neither of them intending to tell Katrina.
The dragon trainers in the audience spent a lot of time before finally getting rid of the Welsh Green Dragon. Then, they placed the Chinese Fireball's nest and eggs on the field, and then placed the Fire Dragon on the nest.
After the dragon tamers got ready and blew the whistle, Bagman held up the microphone and shouted: "Let us welcome the third warrior today, Viktor...
Krum.”
Klum's appearance was extraordinary, and there was a burst of cheers from the audience, and his fans were cheering for him!
"Both Mr. Anderson and Miss Delacour have brought us unexpected surprises." Bagman shouted happily: "I am looking forward to what surprises Mr. Klum will bring to you!"
Krum behaved quite calmly. After observing the surrounding environment, he raised his wand and quickly approached the fire dragon in full view of the public.
The audience was stunned.
What is Krum trying to do?
Do you plan to confront the Chinese fireball head-on like Albert?
Everyone got the answer quickly.
Krum did choose to fight head-on. He took action while the Chinese Fireball was still crouching in front of the lair. It all happened so fast that the audience didn't even have time to react. The light of the curse accurately hit the fire dragon's eyes.
.
The Chinese Fireball let out a terrifying and earth-shattering roar, which frightened the audience to take a breath.
"Very bold." Bagman shouted loudly, "Krum player completely angered the Chinese Fireball. This is not good news."
Krum was indeed very bold. After injuring the fire dragon's eye, he still used spells on it, trying to lure the fire dragon away from its lair and give himself a chance to take the golden egg.
"You really got it right, but why didn't you use the Eye Spell to deal with the fire dragon?" Katrina asked doubtfully, she didn't think Albert couldn't use the Eye Spell.
"Look at the fire dragon's lair." Albert reminded, "The score for destroying the dragon egg will not be too high."
In the chaos just now, many dragon eggs were trampled to pieces by the rampaging Chinese fireballs.
"You can lure the fire dragon away first, and then use the eye disease spell to attack." Katrina didn't understand why Albert didn't use this method.
"It's harder than you expect to hit a moving target. Once the spell fails to hit, the warrior will be unlucky. The fire dragon won't give you many chances." Albert felt that Katrina's idea was too naive.
If your life is really in danger, how can you think of aiming at the eyes of the fire dragon?
"Mr. Krum rushed forward and showed extraordinary courage - yes, he successfully got the golden egg!" Bagman shouted.
However, Krum created a big trouble, and the out-of-control fire dragon was not easy to deal with.
After Krum got the golden egg, the dragon tamers swarmed forward and began to fight against the rampaging Chinese fireball.
This is much more interesting than the match between Fleur and Krum.
Many people in the audience watched with wide eyes how the dragon tamer subdued the rampaging fire dragon.
A large number of people fight against a fire dragon. This is a rare scene.
The dragon trainers spent a lot of effort to finally subdue the rampaging Chinese fireball and bring it into the competition venue.
"Ahem, let's take a look at player Krum's final score." Bagman coughed slightly, drawing everyone's attention back.
This time, all four judges gave Klum only 7 points.
"Mr. Krum's score was obviously low. It would have been a better choice to lure away the fire dragon and use the Eye Disease Spell, but he did not do so." Bagman gave a reasonable explanation before the audience caused another commotion.
"He shouldn't have destroyed those dragon eggs. Everyone knows that dragon eggs are very precious. If they had not been destroyed, Mr. Krum would definitely have scored more than 45 points."
