I Was Expelled From Hogwarts?

Chapter 248: A Gift for Mermaids

Nymeria temporarily lives in Rolf's box, which means that his harem... ah, his magical creatures have added a new species.

This is a delightful thing.

You should know that centaurs are proud, independent and repulsive to wizards. It is very difficult to contact them, let alone raise them.

This can be seen from Magorie and Bane, who are the majority of centaurs.

Even Newt, who is strong, has only lived in the centaur tribe for a period of time, but has never raised a centaur.

Rolf kept Nymeria, which filled the gap in the Scamander family's centaur breeding field and made outstanding contributions to the great cause of magical animals.

As long as he wants, he can immediately write a few papers on the experience of raising centaurs and publish them in the top journal in the magic world-Fantastic Beasts Magazine.

It's still the first author, with a high impact factor!

But Rolf doesn't have time to do this now. He is busy with the Triwizard Tournament.

The second project is to be carried out under the Black Lake. In addition to the breathing problem, there is also the problem of insufficient light to be solved.

Rolf has the "laser eyes" of the bird, so there is no need to worry, but Shirley and the others don't.

The water temperature is also a problem. After all, the competition time is at the end of February, and the weather is still cold. If you soak in the lake for a long time, you may get hypothermia.

So Rolf took Shirley, Hermione and Furong to the deep lake in the box and started various drills to ensure that they can adapt to the complex underwater environment, instead of discovering various problems on the day of the competition.

During the special training in the water, the robes will be wet. Rolf also took Shirley, Hermione and Furong to buy swimsuits.

The three girls all chose the most conservative one-piece swimsuit instead of bikinis, which made Rolf a little regretful.

With the arrival of February, the atmosphere of the whole school became more and more enthusiastic. After three months of doing nothing, they were already looking forward to this competition.

The content of the second event was also spreading wildly in the school.

"The warriors have to duel with two dragons!"

A Ravenclaw student said confidently: "Whoever can kill the dragon will pass the competition."

"It can't be that simple. I heard that the warriors have to dive 10,000 meters without equipment and kill a giant sea monster at the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean!" The Gryffindor student retorted.

"No, no... It's obviously a triathlon. You have to start from Hogwarts, swim across the English Channel, cross the Pyrenees to reach Beauxbatons, then cross the Alps, swim across the North Sea, and reach the end point of Durmstrang..."

For a while, countless students with authoritative information suddenly appeared in Hogwarts. Either this person's uncle worked in the Ministry of Magic, or that person's neighbor was a friend of Ludo Bagman.

Everyone's words became more and more outrageous, and even Rolf was secretly amazed after listening. Fortunately, they were not project designers, otherwise, would there be a way out for the warriors?

Soon, February 24th came, and the day of the competition also arrived.

Rolf got up very late in the morning, left the dormitory slowly, and walked towards the auditorium.

When he entered the hall, he found that it was already full of students, and everyone was chattering, excitedly discussing the upcoming game.

Rolf sat down at the Hufflepuff table. He found that Neville was not there, so he asked, "Where is Neville?"

"I don't know." Justin shook his head, "He was taken away by Professor Sprout this morning. It seems that there is a problem with the greenhouse."

Rolf narrowed his eyes. It seems that Neville has become the object of his rescue in the game.

Similarly, Gabrielle, who usually wants to stick to Rolf like an octopus every day, is not in the auditorium.

Just as Rolf was thinking, Justin put breakfast in front of him and said attentively:

"Rolf, this is the snack that I went to the kitchen to find the house elves to make this morning. They are all your favorite foods on weekdays... Eat quickly and replenish your energy. You have to go to the game later."

Susan also came over enthusiastically and rubbed Rolf's shoulders, while McMillan reported the latest situation of other warriors.

Even Hannah took the latest Prophet Daily and read the key news to Rolf.

Rolf was frightened by this scene and asked, "What are you going to do?"

"The war is imminent, just want you to relax." Justin laughed.

Hannah asked cautiously, "Rolf, are you confident that you will be the first this time? I have bet all my pocket money this semester on you."

"..."

Rolf looked at McMillan and Susan again, and they all nodded. Obviously, they also made bets and wanted to take this opportunity to make a small profit.

It's not just Justin and others who want to make money, but also Ron.

He just learned from Ginny that the people who secretly opened the betting were actually twins, and his mind suddenly became active.

"Harry, let's bet on ourselves to win." Ron whispered: "Our odds are both very high. If you win, it will be a small upset, and if I win, it will be a huge upset, and we can make a lot of money."

Harry frowned and said: "That's what I said, but how can we get first place in the second project?"

"Why is it impossible?" Ron said confidently: "We already have Snape's aqualung potion, and the magic taught by the professors is also good.

We are fully prepared this time, of course there is a high probability that we will make a big splash and become the top two."

Seeing that Harry was still hesitant, Ron borrowed five Galleons from him and put them in front of Ginny.

"Ginny, three galleons beat Harry, two galleons beat me and I will win. You can find George and Fred to bet later." Ron said arrogantly.

Ginny looked at the pile of Galleons. She looked at Ron in surprise and asked, "Where did you get so much money?"

"Leave me alone." Ron warned: "By the way, don't tell me my name, just say you did it yourself."

Ginny picked up the Galleons and said in confusion: "Didn't you say you wanted to take revenge on them for the prom? Why are you giving them money now?"

"Whoever gave them money, I'm making money from them." Ron said coldly.

Either he or Harry could win dozens of Galleons according to the odds if he became the first place!

Ron was ready to wait until he won, and then went to George and Fred to get mad at them, these two dog dealers.

Professor McGonagall quickly came to the auditorium. She stood at the door and shouted loudly: "All the warriors of Hogwarts, follow me."

Rolf stood up and walked towards Professor McGonagall, and the Hufflepuff students cheered enthusiastically.

The students of Ravenclaw and Gryffindor are also cheering for the warriors of their respective houses.

Several people followed Professor McGonagall out of the auditorium and outside the castle.

The snow on the ground has melted, replaced by a cold and damp atmosphere. Gray-purple clouds hang low over the castle, and the continuous cold rain makes the lawn slippery and muddy.

However, Rolf, Shirley and Hermione had already drank the potion in advance and were all warm.

Harry and Ron, on the other hand, wrapped their robes tightly, obviously not feeling well due to the cold wind.

They followed Professor McGonagall and soon came to the Black Lake. They saw a tent close to the shore, surrounded by the gray morning mist on the lake.

"Hurry in, Ludo is already waiting inside." Professor McGonagall warned:

"Remember, when you are in danger, give up as soon as possible, don't be too reluctant, you know?"

When Professor McGonagall said this, she looked at Ron emphatically.

In the first event, he was first captured by the Thunderbird, then attacked by the Explosive Scale Dragon, and was thrown on the top of the mountain. He suffered until the end of the game, and finally scored four points.

Professor McGonagall felt that Ron might as well give up as soon as he entered. Anyway, the difference between zero points and four points was not big, and he would suffer less.

But Ron looked confident, he was no longer the person he used to be.

After entering the tent, Rove saw that Durmstrang's students had already arrived.

Most of them were composed and clearly knew the game.

Krum sat by the fire, his face looking serious against the flames, looking very stressed.

The pressure on Klum is indeed great.

Despite his reputation as a Quidditch star, he did not achieve high scores in the first event.

The second event must be ranked first in order to close the gap with the previous warriors, otherwise the expectation of winning the Triwizard Cup championship will be slim!

Ludo looked at Luo Fu and others with a smile on his face, and said gently:

"The Beauxbatons warriors haven't arrived yet. Please wait a moment and relax as if you were at home!"

Ludo suddenly came over, lowered his voice, and whispered: "Are you all ready? Have you brought any gifts for the mermaid?"

Rolf, Shirley and Hermione nodded.

Harry and Ron looked confused and asked at the same time: "What gift?"

Ludo: "..."
