Hogwarts: The frog cub brings back the Dragon Slayer Crystal at the beginning

A week or so passed quickly as the atmosphere gradually became tense, and the three schools became increasingly tense.

Lorne also returned to Hogwarts from the wooden house early, preparing to have a rich breakfast in the auditorium.

When he and Hermione arrived at the Great Hall, they found that it was already filled with expectant wizards.

"It's only six o'clock in the morning... This is the first time I've seen such a diligent scene."

Hermione looked around and said with some emotion.

Since today's game will start in the morning, Dumbledore also specifically mentioned this matter at the party last night.

"Let's go. After breakfast, we should go to the edge of the Black Lake to prepare for the competition."

Lorne yawned and said softly.

These warriors also have to go to the competition venue in advance, because Bagman also wants to explain the specific process of this game to them.

Now it is approaching March, and there is still roaring outside. The biting cold wind hit the colorfully patterned glass violently.

The owls also flew from the skylight into the auditorium with messy feathers, bringing back their letters and daily newspapers to each little host.

"Good morning Harry."

Lorne touched the white owl standing on his arm, raised a smile at the corner of his mouth and said hello to Harry.

At this time, Harry was lying on the table, looking nervously with a pair of emerald green eyes. There was a small bottle in his hand.

The bottle contained some strange-looking herbs, as if the tentacles of an octopus were rolled into a ball, and it looked like something indescribable.

Lorne once wrote in the"Illustrated Book of Aquatic Plants" He had seen this kind of plant, which was a gillyweed that only grew in the Mediterranean.

After seeing this herb, he instantly understood Harry's intention.

After all, with this herb, he didn't need to use any magic spells. and a potion to survive in the water for an hour or so

"Ah - good morning Lorne."

Harry came back to his senses after hearing the call, quickly raised his head and responded.

His expression looked a little nervous at this time, and his face was slightly distorted.

"Haven't you already done this exercise several times - take it easy, Harry."

After seeing the face of his friend, Ron, who was sitting next to him and was eating steak, comforted him.

Harry nodded absently.

He had indeed practiced several times in the Black Lake, and he was very familiar with the water. He has adapted to the environment, but before the game, he still can't help but feel nervous.

Not only him, but the four warriors from Durmstrang and Beauxbatons also look a little unnatural.

"I don’t know what you are going to look for at the bottom of the lake in this competition, and you have to look for it for an hour."

Ron said with some envy and curiosity.

If he hadn't been eliminated when facing the Fire Dragon in the second game, he would have been able to enter the third game now to look for that thing.

"There is a warning in the mermaid's song - they will take away the treasure you are most reluctant to part with."

"Could it be the Firebolt that Sirius gave me?"

Harry thought for a moment and said slowly.

In his impression, it seemed that he was such a precious thing. After all, this was the first gift given to him by his godfather.

In a sense , it’s indeed a treasure

"Firebolts will break if they get wet..."

Lorne shook his head and chuckled.

"I don’t have any treasures. Does Angelina count?"

Fred on the side searched carefully and said

"If you say that, I will be sad."

As soon as Fred finished speaking, he saw George walking over with a black sticky hair and yawning.

"You didn't call me when you got up in the morning. You were not like this before."

After hearing his brother's complaints, Fred couldn't help but sneer.

"Aren't you afraid of delaying your sleep?"

"Come on, I see you want to have a secret date with Angelina in the morning."

George said speechlessly.

He saw with his own eyes that Fred opened the door and walked out at four o'clock. At that time, the auditorium had not opened yet.

Apart from going on a date with Angelina, he really couldn't think of anything else. What could make Fred get up so early?

"By the way, Professor McGonagall asked us to go to her office, Ron and the boss lady"

"Professor McGonagall?"

Hermione repeated in a low voice with some surprise.

"What did he ask us to do?"

Ron also asked in a daze.

"I don’t know...but she looked very serious and asked the three of us to go together."

George scratched his head and replied incomprehensively.

"That's it...then I'll go there first."

Hermione nodded, then put the last piece of pumpkin pie on the fork into her mouth and said to Lorne

"Well, we'll see you at the competition venue in a moment."

Lorne nodded slightly and said.

It seems that Dumbledore is already collecting treasures to be put into the Black Lake.

The most precious treasure for every warrior is undoubtedly the person closest to them.

And what he corresponds to , there is no doubt that she is Miss Granger.

When the time arrived at around eight o'clock, the deans of the four colleges and the three principals arrived in the auditorium and organized all the wizards to go to the black lake outside.

Warriors They followed Bagman on another path.

Today's weather was a little gloomy, and gusts of cold wind blew across the cold field.

The black lake, which had been forced to thaw by magic, was blown into ripples in circles, far away. Durmstrang's big boat disappeared without knowing when.

When Lorne and the others arrived at their site, they could just see that the other side of the lake was already filled with rows of little wizards. It seemed that The seats were packed, their reflections reflected in the lake below

"Okay, please wait here for a moment! Bagman said to them.

Then he walked over to the referee's table and pointed his wand at his throat, just like he did at the World Cup.

"Loud voice!"

As a mantra sounded, his voice suddenly sounded like thunder.

"Listen up, everyone, our warriors are already in place - as soon as I blow the whistle, the third project is about to begin!"
