The Hogwarts Quidditch field is once again bustling after being idle for several months.
All the students in the school came and sat on the chairs crowded together. Everyone's face was full of excitement.
Except for Slytherin, the young wizards from other colleges waved the three flags of badger, lion, and eagle, and shouted loudly to cheer for their own warriors.
Beauxbatons didn't have many students, but a flag with two crossed golden wands embroidered on it and three stars rising from the top was very conspicuous among the crowd.
Durmstrang was also not to be outdone. The silk banner was flying in the wind. Its pattern was a double-headed eagle and a deer head, with Cyrillic text.
The audience cheered for a long time, but the warrior was still nowhere to be seen. They could only see fifteen huge magic curtains floating in the mid-air of the arena.
Those curtains were showing advertisements like the Quidditch World Cup, but they were advertisements for small shops such as Honeydukes and Zoko's Joke Shop.
There is no way, the only audience for the Triwizard Tournament is the thousands of teachers and students from Hogwarts, Durmstrang and Beauxbatons...it's really too few.
And the vast majority of this pitifully small audience are poor students with little money and many things to do, and their purchasing power is really limited.
Firebolt comes to place an advertisement, but it’s not enough to pay for advertising!
Therefore, it is a secret pleasure to be sponsored by some small shops in Hogsmeade and Knockturn Alley.
"Hello everyone, I am Ludo Bagman, the host of this Triwizard Tournament."
Ludo was still wearing the uniform of the Hornets. He stood in the center of the field, and his voice was like thunder, resounding throughout the Quidditch field.
As a retired player, Ludo can be considered an excellent commentator. How good is he?
He explained that in the past few years, there has only been one live broadcast accident!
Well...it was the Quidditch World Cup final!
Therefore, many students couldn't help but booed when they heard the voice of the mourning star again.
Fortunately, Ludo was used to the big world and didn't care about the boos. Instead, he raised his arms with great enjoyment and said loudly:
"Welcome! Welcome to watch the 126th Triwizard Tournament!"
"Yes, in the past seven hundred years, 125 tournaments have been held, of which Hogwarts won 63 times, Beauxbatons ranked second with 62 times!
As for Durmstrang, it’s a pity...it’s still zero now. I don’t know if our generation will be lucky enough to witness zero breakthrough in seven hundred years. That will be a big step for Durmstrang!”
The students all burst into laughter. Only Principal Karkaroff, who was sitting on the podium, turned ugly.
The commentator exposes his shortcomings like this, doesn't he know whether to slap someone in the face or not? What a lack of quality!
Durmstrang may have been weaker in the past few years...in the past few hundred years, but with Krum this year, it will definitely be different!
Krum will definitely achieve the transformation from 0 to 1, Karkaroff firmly believes in this!
"Okay, enough gossip, the first event of this Triwizard Tournament is set in the dangerous Forbidden Forest and will last for two days and one night.
Only warriors who complete the task or abstain can leave the game early."
While Ludo was speaking, the advertisement on the magic curtain disappeared, and fifteen warriors appeared.
Everyone occupies a magic curtain!
"It seems that the warriors have already taken their positions and entered the Forbidden Forest. They are scattered separately and have a certain distance from each other.
Let's see what the warriors do next - oh, Scamander, what is he doing?!"
Ludo's words caused all the students to focus on the magic curtain in the middle.
Originally, one could still see the life-size image of Luof, but his face grew bigger and bigger, and soon occupied the entire curtain. Then, the entire curtain turned black.
The Quidditch field was in an uproar.
inside the forbidden forest,
Luo Fu flew in mid-air, stretched out his hand to hold a magic item with wings, and started to play with it gently.
It is only the size of a walnut, golden, with a pair of small silver wings, and a glass eye on it.
This magic item looks a lot like the Golden Snitch, but Rove knows that it is a monitor similar to a camera, which can transmit the activities of each warrior to the audience in real-time.
Of course, when privacy needs to be protected, the warrior only needs a simple magic to turn it off and the screen to disappear temporarily.
If this thing is made smaller, it can be used as a pinhole camera, and it will not be interfered by magic magnetism like electrical appliances... It can be compared to a small Rita.
Luo Fu played with it for a while, and was ready to take one back and study it after the game was over.
Of course, this is purely academic research, not to spy on anyone. After all, he is not a pervert like Rita.
Rove put down the monitor and landed back on the ground. He raised his wand, pointed the tip of the wand at his temple, and pulled out a small wisp of silver-white substance.
He waved his wand quickly, and the silver-white substance gradually formed a three-dimensional map in mid-air, just like turning a sand table.
This map was exactly the same as what Roff saw in the tent. It clearly marked the mountains, rivers, and the locations of the dozen magical creatures involved in the first project.
Luofu looked at the map and thought quietly.
Warriors need to find ghost grass, dragon crystal and golden eggs.
Ludo did not explain where to find these three things, but Rolf knew:
Ghost grass lives in swamps; dragon crystal is a gemstone formed after sudden cooling of magma from volcanic lava...it is near the volcano!
Luo Fe looked at the map and saw that there was only one volcano and one swamp on it, so the goal was self-evident.
As for the golden eggs, of course they are in the nest of a dozen dangerous magical creatures!
"Oh, Mr. Scamander pulled out his memory - it was a map produced by the Ministry of Magic - and he actually presented it in the form of memory." Ludo said with a face full of shock:
"The location on the map that Luo Fei touched is exactly where the ghost grass and dragon crystal are.
Merlin, look at this outrageous guy. It only took him one minute to crack the level carefully designed by the Ministry of Magic.
But the other warriors are still like headless flies!"
Ludo was indeed shocked. This game lasted for two days and one night. In addition to the dangerous magical creatures, the map area was also too large.
It would take a long time for the warriors to explore and find the volcanoes and swamps.
But Rolf found the target within a minute, making the Ministry of Magic and the other warriors... look stupid!
After hearing Ludo's explanation, all the students in the audience clapped, cheered, cheered, whistled, and whispered excitedly.
"What is that? There is something in the grass behind Scamander!" Ludo shouted:
"Is he going to be the first to be attacked by magical creatures?!"
All the students stared at the curtain and saw a three-meter-tall magical creature suddenly emerge from the grass:
It looks like a bear, with bluish hair and a hard carapace covering its forelimbs and back neck.
Luofu heard a thunderous roar coming from behind him. He turned around suddenly, looked at the magical creature, and whispered:
