From 776 BC to 388 BC, Iphitus, the founder of the ancient Olympic Games and the ruler of the Peloponnese, worked hard to integrate religion and sports competition. He not only innovated religious ceremonies, but also organized large-scale sports competitions and decided to hold them every four years. Only three countries participated in the first ancient Olympic Games - Peloponnese, Isli, and Sparta. (Author's note: This is still a three, plus four years, it is still a seven.)
This kind of Olympic Games was originally a supreme event held by ancient Greek Muggles in the name of the worshiped main god Zeus. In the hearts of ancient Greek Muggles, Zeus was the "father of mankind and gods." Therefore, the ancient Greek Olympic Games were not only sports competitions, but also mixed with some cultural, economic, and political activities. Taken as a whole, the Olympic movement is seen as a symbol of male strength. They display the infinite physical ability, skills and beauty of human beings.
This undoubtedly also impressed the competitive desire of the local Greek wizards.
In addition to the duel competition venue that is currently under construction after passing through the corridor, looking up you can only see part of the magnificent golden wall surrounding the arena. In this area belonging to the wizards, you can also see the ancient ancient buildings that were previously built for other competitions. Arena - Unlike ancient Roman games between Muggles and wizards, which were full of pure bloody violence, Greek wizards, like their Muggle counterparts, obviously pay more attention to showing more specific uses of magic, some similar to the phantom transfer continuous fixed-point competition. Ancient events such as speed races, levitation spell weightlifting competitions, and throwing alchemical objects into Greek fire inspired the educator side of Allen.
And as Milt Sakakis said, in addition to them, players from many countries and their families also came to the scene in advance to see the configuration of the tea soup duel venue. There are even several magic schools that organize tours here.
Of course, not all colleges come here because there are students participating in the duel competition. Those like Wagadu also come here for the potion championship. Although the winner of this competition has basically been determined, and even the competition itself was held to please Harris, this does not prevent Allen, who wants to win this honor, from at least sending an avatar to deal with the competition, and showing Let’s have a live demonstration and explanation of the real magic potion formula.
Durmstrang's wizards have taken off their heavy cloaks. They are wearing uniforms and stand out like an army. The luxurious jewelry Karkaroff is wearing sparkles in the dazzling sunlight. , he walked at the front with his head held high, proudly explaining to the students that this kind of duel field itself was the inspiration that Principal Alan Harris got from Durstrang.
Madame Maxime, because of her tall stature, her figure made her stand out among the tourists. She seemed to be very afraid of the heat. She held a silk fan in her hand and kept fanning it. She also wore a large sunshade gauze hat on her head. Behind her were several witches in Beauxbatons uniforms - and even a half-giant professor from Hogwarts' Care of Magical Creatures class.
The stairs leading to the arena are ancient and huge stone steps. The top is not smooth, but it can ensure that the audience walks steadily.
The Harrises climbed up the stairs and went directly to the top-most box, which was located at the highest point of the arena. There were dozens of blue and bronze chairs painted with wave patterns, divided into two rows. Obviously, as the hosts, Greece has thoroughly investigated Harris's preferences - specifically Alan Harris's.
Overlooking the entire arena, you will find that it is an oval-shaped building with a large flat area in the center as a duel area. The arena appears as flat and smooth as velvet, while the surrounding stands are arranged in a ladder-like manner, with no permanent The roof of sex. But in fact, when there is a thunderstorm, because there are also gathering places for the Muggle community nearby, the wizard will activate the magic device and raise a transparent protective cover high in the sky to cover the entire arena, without making any rough changes. The weather itself left Muggles scratching their heads.
"As far as the overall building is concerned, this place has basically been completed. In fact, because of the magic bonus, the construction speed is very fast." Stefanos Miltsakakis ignored the others and led Allen and the others Entering the duel venue, he seemed a little embarrassed about the incomplete state. He stretched out his arm and pointed at the wizards who were waving their wands to carve magic patterns in the auditorium and the venue and explained the reason, "After all, this is our first time to hold a duel. A duel competition of this scale is different from the traditional one-on-one... With the addition of the power of your spell, Principal Alan Harris... cough... we have started additional emergency reinforcement work." Milt Sakakis coughed dryly A voice changed the line, "Out of a responsible attitude towards the personal safety of the audience, our staff at the Greek Ministry of Magic treat every spell cast with the utmost caution, not just once, but repeatedly cast with full coverage by multiple people. Don’t miss any corner... so there is some delay, but now is the last time to cast the defensive spell, and there will be no problem in completing it before the start of the game.”
"That's a commendable attitude. It made me see the rigor of the wizards in my hometown..." Owen nodded, understanding that this was the other party's explanation and compliment. Milt Sakakis deliberately made it clear by letting slip, It was Allen who had recently burned down a Muggle city, which frightened them Greek wizards... and began to arrange some extra defensive measures in the already built duel venue.
The staff are still busy preparing for the duel. Everything here is shrouded in a mysterious golden light, which seems to come from the duel arena itself. Almost at eye level with them, there was a huge blackboard, with golden words flashing on it, as if an invisible giant hand was writing words on the blackboard and then erasing them. Those flashing words are advertisements for the spectators in the stadium. Umbrella never misses promoting itself in this way, especially when its reputation has been damaged recently, it also invested in advertising fees.
In fact, the venue itself here, except for the larger auditorium, can be seen that the Greek Ministry of Magic basically copied the setting of the melee duel arena in Hogwarts' Floating City. There are a variety of obstacles available for contestants in the venue. Diverse - and the defense measures repeatedly reinforced by Greece are actually not as sophisticated as those of Hogwarts. They are basically completed by relying on constant piles regardless of cost, and a circle of stone walls being added below the auditorium has The wizard is using ancient magic script to carve runes. The constant effects above are similar to the All Curses Curse, which are some common universal counter-spells. It seems that this is an additional measure arranged to prevent Allen from making a big fuss.
"The seats here are very sufficient and fully meet the requirements of the organizing committee. We have carefully designed them to ensure that the seats are spacious and comfortable enough. UU Readingｗww.uukanshu.net Even if a giant comes here, there will be a place suitable for him." Milt Sarkar Mr. Keith said with pride, "Since the Ministry of Magic received the task of holding the dueling competition here, we have also hired some wizards who participated in the construction of your school's dueling venue. Not counting the internal decoration and layout magic, the chief engineer At the end of the day... we have been busy like Muggles repairing things for more than three months... Of course, it is a pity. If it can rise into the air like the Hogwarts floating layer, it will be even more spectacular. No need to bother casting Muggle-Repelling Charms on every inch."
"As for the issue of floating cities, I think Greece, as an ancient magical country, should have its own floating city sooner." Allen was so clear about the other party's thoughts and hints that he was a little bored. He turned his head and glanced at the girl who was fighting Wednesday. Mother, "Luna, you and Helena, please rest here for a while."
Miltsakakis received the promise with a smile on his face and compliments. He also understood that he probably annoyed the young man along the way - although this in itself was somewhat the effect he wanted to achieve.
The light-blond girl did not take her attention away from her hanging daughter. She just nodded to show that she would take care of the safety issues in this private room, and the venue below, which could be seen clearly at a glance, was not a problem for the two of them. How far away a person is, enough time to cope with the possible arrival of death.
