Chapter 154 The Brave Man and the Dragon

A large group of dragon farm employees walked into the arena. They spent a lot of effort to calm the frightened and shocked Swedish short-nosed dragon and move it away. The leader also cast a tacit look at Sherin.

Then the staff of the Ministry of Magic entered the arena to repair the scene.

After everything was ready, the venue was restored to its original state. A Welsh green dragon trapped in a cage was moved to the venue. After the cage was removed, Bagman blew the whistle again.

The second person to go into battle was Katalin.

She walked out of the tent slowly and stood on the field. The sunlight shone on her body, but it was as if it was reflected by a smooth mirror, reflecting a dazzling cold light, making it difficult to see her figure clearly.

Opposite her, the Welsh green dragon crouched low, guarding its nest of eggs, staring at the girl in front of him with fierce eyes, and occasionally making a low roar similar to a warning.

Katarin opened her lips and said clearly: "Split into pieces!"

She chose the Cutting Spell!

However, unlike the general Cutting Spell, this Cutting Spell with a faint white light not only stirred up airflow in the air, but also made a hissing sound of the air being cut. The spell light accurately hit the body of the fire dragon, and a large amount of crimson blood rain suddenly spurted out from under the neck of the fire dragon.

At the same time, the fire dragon was also knocked away by the impact force attached to the spell!

Katarin took advantage of the situation and did not spare the dragon. She ran forward quickly, muttering a long spell in a low voice, and then swung the magic wand forward again in a complicated style, and a white light shot out from the tip of the wand. At this time, the Welsh Green Dragon had not yet stood up from the posture of falling, let alone making any meaningful resistance. The white light accurately hit the wound on the fire dragon's body, and there was a long crimson water column like a large fountain, and the ground was covered with shocking blood.

Xie Lin frowned. The second spell was not a cutting spell, nor was it combat magic. It was a bloodletting spell in healing magic!

For a wizard with a "natural sword heart", the combination of a cutting spell and a bloodletting spell was indeed tricky!

The Welsh green dragon let out a wail and lay weakly on the ground. The dragon farm employees immediately rushed into the scene and gave the fire dragon first aid. At this time, Katarin walked slowly to the golden egg with an elegant pace and raised it up.

The strength shown by Katarin successfully conquered the hearts of the audience, and they did not hesitate to give her applause that was no less than Xie Lin.

The third person to go into battle was Eleanor.

Compared with the two warriors who appeared earlier, Eleanor's performance was not like a warrior, but more like a priest presiding over a magic ceremony. She walked around the venue, muttering something in her mouth. The Chinese fireball dragon glared at her fiercely, and her head turned as Eleanor walked, and from time to time, small fireballs with thick smoke were sprayed from her nostrils.

As if she had suddenly found a certain position, Eleanor suddenly stood still, pointed her wand at the ground, and shouted: "Sealing Dragon!"

A low and loud muffled sound came from the ground below, and the ground of the entire arena suddenly lit up with crisscrossing red magic patterns - the Chinese Fireball Dragon screamed terribly and earth-shatteringly, and it struggled in pain, as if it was covered and entangled by an invisible net.

The Chinese Fireball Dragon was the most fierce by nature. It kept roaring and roaring. The ground in front of it had been scratched into a big pit by its claws, but it still couldn't break free from the invisible bondage on its body. It wanted to spit out flames, it opened its mouth and revealed its sharp fangs, but it only sprayed saliva all over the ground, and there was not even a tongue of fire.

It was desperate.

It closed its eyes, lay softly on the ground, and gave up struggling.

Xie Lin immediately understood - this is a sealing spell for fire dragons, or all dragon blood, which can seal the natural abilities of dragons, such as strength, fire breathing, etc.

Eleanor walked in front of the Chinese Fireball Dragon, ignoring the dragon's eyes that wanted to eat her alive, and raised the golden egg under the attention of everyone!

Although Eleanor's battle process was far less exciting than the previous two warriors, this magic that could restrain the powerful fire dragon still made the young wizards amazed and applauded.

With the outstanding performance of the three warriors, Harry's performance can only be described as mediocre.

As early as when he knew that the question was the fire dragon, he was already scared, but he still had a glimmer of luck - he was the last one to go into battle, as long as the warriors in front of him dragged on for a little time, he could take advantage of this gap to quickly come up with a solution.

Unexpectedly, every warrior completed the task in less than 5 minutes and got the golden egg!

When the whistle sounded, his mind went blank. What to do? He hadn't figured out a solution yet!

He walked out of the tent with trembling steps, like a walking corpse with a lost soul, looking down at the ground.

The sun shone obliquely on his face, half of which was hidden in the shadow, looking a little mysterious and weird.

The Hungarian Horntail crouched at the other end of the paddock, staring at Harry with its vicious yellow eyes, twisting its spiked tail violently, leaving several meters of pits and bumps on the hard ground.

Harry stood still on the field, thinking for a full 10 minutes, and was booed by the Slytherin students. Of course, these had no effect on him, because at this moment, he could hear nothing but a chaotic noise in his ears.

For some reason, among the noise, he could hear a vague voice whispering in his ears, "Use your strengths..."

Strength? Apart from Quidditch, I have no other strengths? Wait, Quidditch?

Could it be that……

Just when Harry found inspiration, it seemed that the voice whispered in his ear again: "Use a spell to get what you need..."

Harry raised his head, his eyes bursting with energy. He eliminated all distracting thoughts and shouted loudly: "The Firebolt is flying!"

He used the summoning spell to summon the Firebolt from the castle as in the original book, then rode the Firebolt and obtained the golden egg with a slight injury to his shoulder.

Next is the scoring session.

Schelling's performance was undoubtedly the best and most eye-catching in the audience. Dumbledore, Crouch and Bagman all gave 10 out of 10 without hesitation. Although Ms. Maxim hesitated, she still gave 10. It received full marks, but Karkaroff only gave it 4 points!

Harry was also treated this way in the original novel, but Harry, the coward, did not dare to react in any way to this unfair phenomenon. However, Schelling is not Harry, and he is not that easy to bully.

Schelling's face darkened, he walked towards the referee's seat and used a loudspeaker spell to speak loudly: "Dear Principal Karkaroff, I would like to ask you, what mistake did I make in this game that caused you to deduct points?"

The whole audience did not expect this, and the scene suddenly became quiet.

Dumbledore and Snape looked expressionless, but Professor McGonagall looked at Karkaroff with gloating.

Karkaroff's face changed and he said forcefully: "Your performance is too false. You pretended to be a ghost and recited a few spells that no one could understand. I don't know what kind of shameful means..." At this point , as if he was hinting at something, he glanced at Dumbledore with an almost explicit look, and then said: "Let the fire dragon lie down. I have never heard that the fire dragon can be killed." Domesticated!”

Schelling said loudly: "Since our distinguished guest, Mr. Principal from Durmstrang, has doubts about my performance, in order to prove myself and maintain the reputation of Hogwarts, I am here to As a fourth-year Hogwarts student, I formally challenge you to a fair, one-on-one duel. I dare you to come down and fight me!"

The whole audience was shocked.

There has never been such a challenge in the history of the wizarding world.

As we all know, wizards' magic power generally increases with age. As the head of a school, Karkaroff is at the level of an elite Auror, not much worse than McGonagall and Snape. If a fourth grade student wants to challenge an elite Auror, that is equivalent to a challenge across 4 levels!

Schelling was familiar with Karkaroff's character from the original work. He would never dare to challenge him because he didn't know Schelling's true identity, and he couldn't afford to lose. Once he lost, his reputation would be ruined. Having said that, even if he really accepted the challenge, Schelling was not afraid at all. Anyway, with Dumbledore here, he would never be in danger, and his magic power was at the level of an adult wizard. With tactics and magic spells at the bottom of the box, , it is not impossible to leapfrog and counterattack.

As Schelling expected, Karkaroff got scared and changed the score to 10 out of 10 with a livid face.

Schelling's score was 50 points - perfect!

The magic spell Katalin used was too rough, and the strong wind generated during the process of knocking the fire dragon away caused varying degrees of damage to each fire dragon egg. As a result, she scored 45 points.

Eleanor's method did not show the courage and fighting spirit that a warrior should have, and the preparation time was also the longest, so some points were deducted. She scored 45 points, tied for second with Katalin.

Schelling did not comment on this scoring method. This is also how it was scored in the original book. After all, the Triwizard Tournament is a competition that presents ancient beast-fighting warriors, so the viewing pleasure brought by the way the warriors break through is also an important factor in scoring. one. The way Fleur broke through in the original book was obviously the most effective - the fire dragon fell asleep, and the warrior got the golden egg without any danger, without causing any damage to other dragon eggs, but her ranking was the lowest.

This is why Xie Lin had to think hard about the most dazzling way to break through the level two days ago. Not only does he want to win the game, he also wants to win people's hearts!

Harry's score was slightly worse than in the original book because he spent a lot of time thinking on the court, and he ended up with 38 points.

The rankings of the competition results are as follows: Schelling is first, Katalin and Eleanor are tied for second, and Harry is third.

Great, this is exactly what Schelling wanted!

Xie Lin secretly sneered in his heart, this is no longer the little game of house in the original world. It is no longer so easy for Barty to help Harry come back and win.

After announcing the results of the competition, the first event of the Goblet of Fire officially came to an end.

The second event of the competition will be held three months later on February 24. The warriors need to crack the secret of the golden egg during this time, but Schelling already knows the way to crack it, so he becomes again Be free.
