In the small room behind the main guest seat.

The space here is not as cramped as imagined, and it is also dozens of square meters. There are portraits of wizards hanging on the walls on both sides, and the fire is burning in the fireplace in the middle.

Several warriors sat around the fireplace, and the atmosphere was a little dull.

Krum leaned against the back of the chair, staring at the command seal on the back of his hand, wondering what he was thinking.

After Sakura came in, she greeted Fleur and Cassandra, and sat next to Fleur. The two whispered to each other, and their relationship was quite harmonious.

A girl like Sakura who is kind-hearted, cheerful, and has no bad intentions, basically no one would dislike her, not to mention that Fleur and Sakura had a good relationship when they were in Beauxbatons.

The only thing that made Fleur a little uncomfortable was that Wayne told her that her current strength was not Sakura's opponent.

But she would definitely not be hostile to Sakura because of this and argue with Wayne.

When she wins the championship, then let Wayne coax her.

Thinking of this, Fleur's mouth curled up. Seeing this scene, even Sakura sincerely felt that Fleur was really beautiful.

At this time, Cedric walked in, his face still flushed with excitement.

Seeing the situation in the room, his smile faded a little.

Because of his relationship with Wayne, Fleur, Sakura, and Cassandra all greeted him kindly.

Now the others were embarrassed to pretend to be cold, and nodded more or less.

Cedric did not sit down either, staring at the fire with his hands behind his back, thinking about how to win glory for Hufflepuff and win the Holy Grail War.

In fact, he was quite sure that he would become a warrior, but it was not until this moment that he really felt the huge pressure.

Every smiling face at the Hufflepuff table just now was both his motivation and his burden.

Just as he was thinking, the door was pushed open again.

"What's wrong?" Fleur turned around and saw Harry walking in with a blank face: "Are you here to call us back to the hall?"

After saying that, Harry did not respond, and Fleur frowned in a daze.

But she did not say anything unpleasant, after all, this was also Wayne's friend, and the famous Harry Potter.

There was a flurry of footsteps from behind, and Ludo Bagman walked into the room and grabbed Harry's arm.

"It's incredible." He shook his head, still unbelievable, raised his head, and said loudly:

"Allow me to introduce - although it's incredible, Harry Potter - the eighth contestant of the Holy Grail War."

Krum straightened up, his face became even gloomier.

Cedric showed the same blank expression as Harry.

Vladimir thought he had misheard and scratched his ears.

"Is this a new joke?" Cassandra frowned and crossed her arms. "Not to mention the seven warriorsAll have been selected. Just looking at his age, he is not qualified to register, right? "

"He is not a student of the Institute of Magic. He can't even cross that line."

"Yes, this is indeed hard to accept." Bagman raised Harry's arm, like controlling a puppet: "But the Holy Grail chose him. Look, three command spells, exactly the same as yours."

No one doubted that Bagman was joking now, and looked at Harry with all kinds of ambiguous eyes.

Cedric was even more at a loss.

"There are two contestants from Hogwarts?" Vladimir's voice was like thunder: "This is too unfair, they must have cheated, I don't agree!"

"That's right." Buso of Vagado also chimed in: "Does the organizer have such privileges? The rules I have seen are not like this. "

The door was pushed open again, and this time a large group of people came in.

Dumbledore, Crouch, the headmasters of the other six schools, Professor McGonagall, and Snape.

Along with them came the buzz of thousands of people in the hall. Wayne walked in at the end and closed the door to block out the noise.

"Madame Maxime, Wayne." Fleur immediately walked up, "What's going on? Why does Hogwarts have one more warrior?"

"That's what I want to ask." Madam Maxime said loudly, "Dumbledore, we need a reasonable explanation."

"Yes, Dumbledore, if there are two warriors, Hogwarts' chances of winning the championship will be greatly increased. You must let one of them withdraw from the competition. "Fontana said coldly.

The headmasters were all on the same side at this time, and an explanation was necessary.

Dumbledore did not respond to anyone, but looked down at Harry.

"Did you secretly sign up for the Holy Grail?" Dumbledore asked calmly.

Professor McGonagall, who was closest to her, couldn't help but cover her ears, almost deafening her.

Harry had never seen Dumbledore so irritable, and shook his head desperately: "It's not me, sir, I didn't sign up, I never had such an idea."

Okay, Harry admitted that he had imagined the scene if he became a warrior.

But that was also in a dream, what does it have to do with reality.

"Albus, I believe this was not done by Mr. Potter." Professor McGonagall protected Harry, "He can't cross that age line, I believe we all agree on this!"

"Indeed. "Crouch nodded: "Even if ten Potters came, it would be impossible to break Dumbledore's spell."

Harry: "......."

Although they were all defending him, why did it hurt so much to hear?

"Maybe he asked someone else for help?" Snape said sinisterly. He knew that this was all Dumbledore's plan, but he didn't care about it. As long as there was a chance to disgust Harry, he would never let it go.

Professor McGonagall glared at the old bat who was speaking for outsiders.When she retorted, Crouch, who got a signal from Wayne, said first: "Snape, I'll give you a chance now. If you can help any student register successfully, I will immediately resign from the position of Director of the International Magical Cooperation Department."

"Do you think this is the Goblet of Fire? Can someone else register instead?"

"It is precisely because of the higher level of security of the Holy Grail that we chose it."

"But who could have thought that something like this would happen?"

"Then let this matter go?" Fontana said in a muffled voice, "I request a new selection, or one more warrior from each other school."

"Impossible." Crouch rejected it flatly: "Now the Holy Grail has fallen into silence, and the warriors who signed the contract must complete the competition. Even if your school selects a few more warriors, it is impossible to obtain the blessing of the Command Spell."

"What will be the consequences if you don't participate?" Principal Koga of the Magic Institute suddenly asked.

"It's more serious than violating the covenant of the Goblet of Fire." Dumbledore said lightly, "The magic backfired, and he became a Squib from now on."

Harry's face changed instantly and he shook his head frantically.

Participate! Must participate!

Whoever wants him to become a Squib and stay away from the wizarding world, he will fight to the death!

"Ahem, I think Hogwarts is at a disadvantage in this matter."

Wayne, who had comforted Fleur, suddenly spoke up, and everyone present cast strange eyes at him.

Do you want to listen to what you are saying?

There are two warriors in Hogwarts, and you are the ones who are at a disadvantage?

Even Dumbledore's eyes flashed.

He knew that some words were not suitable for him to say, so he spent some money to invite Wayne here

But this is too outrageous.

"Because Hogwarts carries a higher risk." Wayne came to Harry's side, patted his shoulder to comfort him.

"You all know that the reason why the Triwizard Tournament was discontinued was because the competition was too dangerous."

"This is also the original intention of setting the age limit. Senior students have higher magic levels and tolerance."

Wayne pointed at Harry: "If it was ours, why would we choose a fourth-year student?"

"Harry didn't even master animal transfiguration, and he barely passed the potions class every time. His grades in spells were mediocre. Except for Defense Against the Dark Arts, there was almost nothing to praise."

"And once something happens to Harry, with his special identity, it will inevitably cause an uproar in the wizarding world." (To read the exciting novels, go to Faloo Novel Network!)

Puff! Puff! Puff!

Harry only felt that several arrows hit his heart in succession, and looked at Wayne with a dull look.

Thank you for explaining it for me!

"It's well-reasoned and convincing." Madam Maxime nodded subconsciously.

If she had the ability to add another warrior to Beauxbatons, she would choose a senior student.

"This is a conspiracy!" An angry voice came, Moody pushed the door open roughly and walked into the room:

"What good does it do for Potter to become a warrior? It's obvious that someone wants to kill him!"

"What will happen if there are casualties in the game? The savior Harry Potter died in an accident, which must be the work of some Death Eaters!"

After saying that, his magic eye stared at Karkaroff, and his one eye looked at Snape.

Snape cursed the old man in his heart for acting too much, and turned his head sideways.

"Why are you looking at me!" Karkaroff was like a cat with its fur standing on end: "Moody, I want to protest to the International Confederation of Wizards. You British are going too far!"

Moody sneered: "Did I mention the name? Why do you have to identify yourself with it?"

"Oh, sorry, I forgot. Don't look at some people who look like decent people now. Only they know what shady things they did in the past."

"Moody I (*!%"

Karkaroff cursed directly, and Moody did not show any weakness and cursed back at him. []

The principals frowned and quietly moved away from the two women who were greeting each other's family tree rude guy.

The room was quiet again until Professor McGonagall asked both of them to leave.

"It's over now, no one can change it." Dumbledore said softly.

"Potter, you must participate in the competition, but winning is not what you need to consider, surviving is the most important thing."

"As compensation, even if the two warriors of Hogwarts become the final winners, the Goblet of Fire and the Holy Grail will be handed over to the next school for safekeeping, and will become the organizer of the next one."

"Everyone, do you have any opinions?"

Several principals gathered together to communicate Fleur shrugged, "I don't care. If you want to win the championship, you have to beat the other six contestants. One more won't make any difference. Sakura, you think so too, right?"

"Yeah." Sakura replied softly. She was the one who didn't care the most from the beginning.

Cassandra snorted softly, "No matter how many people there are, I will be the final winner."

Cedric looked at Harry with a complicated expression and shook his head.

Vladimir had fallen asleep. He had just drunk too much vodka and couldn't hold on. Buso thought about it and didn't object.

Only Krum didn't speak, still that With a gloomy face, his headmaster was kicked out, so what was the use of expressing his opinion?

"Dumbledore, we have another request."

Finally, Madam Maxime and the others came up with a result.

"Before the last level begins, Potter and Cedric must deduct ten points as a punishment for Hogwarts."

Dumbledore did not agree immediately, but asked: "Mr. Diggory, I have no right to make the decision for you, so what do you think?"

After a long silence, Cedric nodded: "I agree."

"Thank you for your cooperation." Dumbledore bowed slightly, CedricDerek dodged quickly: "I will prepare corresponding compensation for you."

Seeing that the conditions were agreed, the faces of the other principals also looked much better.

At this point, they had no better way, so they used this fourth-year student to fight for some rights for their warriors.

Anyway, they didn't think Harry could have any impact on the final championship situation.

"Thank you very much for your understanding." Dumbledore smiled and said: "Hogwarts will definitely guarantee fairness and justice."

Wayne glanced at him.

Old bitch... Hogwarts guarantees fairness and justice, but your personal behavior has nothing to do with the school, right?

Several principals ignored him. With such a big problem, what fairness and justice can we talk about? Their minds also became crooked.

If you are unkind, don't blame me for being unjust...

So what if Hogwarts has a large number of people? They are ready to provide some small help to their warriors.

"Battie, are you going to give instructions to our warriors?"

"Okay." Crouch took a few steps forward and came to the stove. The warriors all looked at him, and Harry became nervous.

"The first project is to test your courage." Crouch said, "So we are not going to tell you what the content is. The courage to face the unknown is an important quality of wizards."

"On-the-spot performance and knowledge reserves are also very important. This is a great test of a wizard's comprehensive quality."

"The first project will be carried out on November 24th. The only thing you can rely on is the wand in your hand. As for the subsequent projects, you will get clues after completing the first project."

"That's all, right, Albus?" Crouch looked at Dumbledore.

"Yes." Dumbledore nodded: "Please prepare well and make good use of this time. If you need help, you can ask the professors for help. They will be very happy to see you."

The people in the room went out, and the students in the hall were taken back to the dormitory by the prefects. Fleur took Wayne's arm and the two walked out of the castle.

Dumbledore invited several headmasters to have a nightcap, but they all refused. They were not in the mood.

"Harry, why don't you leave?" Dumbledore looked at the boy who was still standing there in confusion.

"Principal, I think I know who is hurting me." Harry lowered his head and said softly.

Dumbledore's heart skipped a beat, "Who is it?"

Harry stretched his head out to look, and found no one, so he shrank back again, and said excitedly:

"Professor Moody, it must be him!"

"Then what is your evidence?"

"I have no evidence!" Harry waved his arms: "But it is definitely not wrong!"

"You have to believe me, I have been tricked by the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor for three years! Even Professor Lupin took me to see him before Sirius proved his innocence!"

DumbledoreBlidore looked at the child with pity. Thinking of Harry's experience in the past few years, he also understood his feelings.

"But Alastor just spoke for you. You can trust him."

"No! I can't!" Harry became more excited:

"I have too much experience in this kind of thing! Lockhart deceived me like this back then. I trusted him so much, but he actually helped Voldemort!"

"I have discovered that all Defense Against the Dark Arts professors are bad!"

Dumbledore: ".......".
