Chapter 615 Sound in the Dark

Charlie didn't believe Maxim's words at all, but there was nothing he could do. The news had been leaked, so he couldn't use the Forgetting Curse on Maxim.

"It would be very difficult if Mr. Bagman and Mr. Crouch knew that I had leaked the question!" Charlie said with a sigh, he didn't want to be scolded.

More importantly, this is extremely unfair to other warriors!

"Relax, Charlie, as long as we don't tell, no one will know!" Hagrid comforted Charlie, and then rubbed his hands excitedly, his eyes gleaming as he stared at the fire dragon here.

"What are you going to do for the warriors then - fight the fire dragon? There are exactly four dragons here, and everyone can get one!"

Hagrid spoke briskly, with a hint of excitement mixed in his words, as if what the warriors were facing in the competition was not a dangerous and deadly fire dragon, but a cute little pet.

"Impossible, unless they want to kill those warriors!" Charlie shrugged, "I think the Ministry of Magic probably hopes that the warriors will pass by the fire dragon..."

"Even this is dangerous enough. If the situation goes bad, we will come to the rescue at any time, chant the extinguishing spell on the fire dragon, and knock it out to ensure the safety of the warriors!" Charlie's face was very serious. The game was very important to them. It is also a test for these dragon trainers.

"Then how will the warriors choose the dragon? Do they choose independently?" Maxim didn't have the intuition of a voyeur at all. Charlie's words made her look a little worried, and she couldn't help but ask.

"You'd better stop asking. We don't know the specific situation, but I think it's impossible for them to make a choice. It should be drawn by lots!" Charlie shook his head and guessed.

"Drawing lots? By luck?" Maxim's brows frowned, and she continued. "I still think it's a bit unreasonable. After all, there is a less dangerous dragon here. If a warrior draws it, wouldn't it be easy to pass the level?"

Although Maxim hopes that Furong can meet Noble during the competition and pass the level easily, but in the draw of lots, the probability of 1 in 4 is too low!

"You are wrong, Ms. Maxim, safety does not mean easy to deal with!" Charlie shrugged and retorted. "Norbert is smarter than ordinary dragons and will not be easily fooled. This means that the warriors cannot use some small tricks to deceive it!"

Maxim nodded. She understood what Charlie meant, and when she looked at Norbert, she no longer had the same enthusiasm as before.

It is unrealistic for the warriors to confront the fire dragon head-on. During the competition, they must use some means to distract the fire dragon in order to pass the level. However, this is not possible with Noble. The opponent is too smart.

"Okay, stop talking about this, can we go see Norbert now? Charlie?" Hagrid urged, he couldn't wait any longer.

Charlie hesitated and felt very embarrassed, but he reluctantly agreed under Hagrid's constant pestering.

According to Hagrid, he can't stop a mother from seeing her baby dragon...

Along the way, Charlie also shared with Hagrid Noble's experiences in Romania over the years.

"Norbert surprised us when he first came. He is the most alert dragon we have ever seen! He is just a little afraid of wizards. He must have been frightened by someone..."

"Fortunately, this is not a bad thing. At least it knows how to obey orders. The Romanian magic troupe is very fond of it and has booked Noble early. In a few years, he will go there to perform some stunts! "

"You have to know that there are only a few magic troupes with a dragon, not to mention that Norbert can do things that other dragons can't do. They will definitely become popular all over the world in the future!"

Charlie was talking eloquently, and Hagrid beside him was also happy about Noble's bright future.

Ivan, who was following a few people, was very speechless.

What a great fire dragon. Will he join a magic troupe to perform acrobatics in the future?

But it's better than being skinned and cramped and turned into magic material...

When Ivan thought about it, he felt that what Charlie said made sense. It was indeed a bright future for Noble.

On the other side, Hagrid, accompanied by Charlie, had arrived at Norbert's side and woke up the dozing fire dragon.

Looking at this scene, Ivan couldn't help but feel a little worried. He very much doubted whether Nott still knew Hagrid after such a long time. It would be no joke if the fire dragon suddenly went crazy at such a close distance.

Fortunately, what Ivan was worried about did not happen. After waking up, Norbert quickly recognized his "Dragon Mother". This behemoth, which was fifty feet tall, used two palm-sized weapons to His tongue licked Hagrid's face, almost knocking Hagrid to the ground.

Hagrid didn't care at all and gave Norbert a heavy hug.

"Oh, I'm so glad you haven't forgotten me yet!" Hagrid shed tears and was quite moved, but he didn't notice that Maxim looked at him in an increasingly weird way.

This happy time did not last long. Charlie started chasing people away after ten minutes. They, the dragon trainers, had been busy all night and were really tired. They were already sleepy.

Ivan and Harry also followed Hagrid out of the venue, all the way back to the castle.

When he arrived at the door of the Gryffindor lounge, Ivan stopped, touched his empty stomach, and looked at Harry. "Go back by yourself, Harry. I didn't eat at night and I'm a little hungry. I'm going to the kitchen to find something to eat..."

Harry nodded absently, obviously still worried about the fire dragon.

Ivan ignored him and after explaining, he parted ways with Harry and walked toward the kitchen.

It was already close to two o'clock in the middle of the night, and there was no one in the castle. Ivan was not worried about anyone bumping into him, so Ivan did not continue to maintain the illusion spell. Anyway, he was not here to do bad things this time.

But when he went downstairs and passed the entrance hall, Ivan's footsteps stopped again, and he suddenly turned his head to look at the dark corridor on the right.

Dong Dong...

There was a slight sound, like someone tapping something on the floor.

If it weren't for the silence around here and the close distance, I might not be able to hear clearly at all.

Perhaps noticing Ivan's presence, the sound of tapping on the floor stopped, and the surrounding area returned to its original calm, but it was obviously too late at this time. The moment he heard the sound, Ivan had already drawn out his wand and pointed it at that direction.

A brilliant white light shot out from the tip of the wand and escaped into the darkness of the hallway.

The magic did not hit, but with the help of the reflection of the magic light, Ivan vaguely saw a ferocious, scarred face flashing in the aisle.
