Daily Life at Hogwarts Chapter 887: Item 1
On the day of the game, the students at Hogwarts still had to attend classes. To be precise, it was half a day, and classes were suspended at noon. However, Fred, George and Lee Jordan complained about it. Their reason was that The Triwizard Tournament puts a lot of pressure on the Warriors and should give them a relaxed environment for the first event.
Okay, that sounds like a good idea, but Albert knew they didn't want to go to a spell class when they said it.
After all, having to go to a game in the afternoon and have a class is a disappointment.
As soon as he entered the hall, Albert was surrounded by a large group of students, and everyone sent their blessings.
Sanna took a group of girls to show Albert the big banner they had made. It showed Albert holding a wand and seemed to be confronting something. Next to him was a roaring Gryffindor lion. It was accompanied by a line of magical words that kept flashing: Gryffindor must win, Albert must win.
However, Gryffindor Wins was changed by Albert to Hogwarts Wins.
Fred and George even took advantage of this opportunity to start a bet. Albert's odds of scoring first were the lowest, only 10%. It seemed to tell others that Albert would definitely win. Of course, the focus of the bet was not on Albert, but on Harry, and the odds of betting on the bottom of Harry were high.
Compared to Albert, who is popular with everyone, Harry's situation is even worse. He is not liked by everyone, and most people don't like him. Coupled with a series of pranks a while ago, now There are many students who gloat over this, and many even say to Harry with a handkerchief: "We have prepared a lot of tissues to cry for you".
"Shouldn't you just play like this?" Shanna looked at Albert's outfit, frowned deeply, and said, "They didn't give you special clothes for the competition?"
Several people around looked at each other, unable to understand what Shanna was saying.
"Quidditch players all have special robes and protective gear, not to mention the dangerous Triwizard Tournament, but to have no protective gear for the warriors, is it too disrespectful to the warriors' lives? No wonder so many warriors have died in the races of the past."
"No?"
Others who didn't think there was a problem at first frowned after hearing what Shanna said, because what Shanna said really made sense.
After all, the warriors need to face dangerous challenges, and it is obviously necessary to prepare clothes and armor.
"Let me ask you a question."
Lee Jordan enthusiastically offered to help Albert because he also felt Shanna had a point.
Albert's safety is clearly more important than the Triwizard trophy.
It didn't take long for Lee Jordan to return with what he had heard from Professor McGonagall: No.
Hogwarts really has nothing for warriors.
As for that, other schools don't seem to have either?
After a long period of embarrassment and silence, everyone suddenly felt that this Triwizard Tournament was deeply unreliable.
This atmosphere did not last long,
Everyone's attention is drawn to a large package.
The long-eared owls carrying the packages put the package on Albert's desk, and another owl threw a letter in front of Albert.
Albert opened the envelope and found that it was a letter from Mr. McDoug: The package contained a set of combat uniforms specially prepared for him. According to Mr. McDoug, this combat uniform came from Fengya Wizard's Clothing Store .
Something like a star agency, and as an advertising fee, after they recycle the suit, they will send him a brand new suit.
As the most well-known figure in the UK right now, Fengya Wizards Clothing Store does not suffer from this, and of course another reason is that the Wild Smith family has a wide range of friends.
"Wow, I was talking about protective clothing just now, but someone has brought it to you now." Fred and George looked at each other. They didn't expect that someone would bring something to Albert as soon as they finished talking about this. to send over.
"Do you want to take it apart now?"
Lee Jordan would love to see the style of the entire outfit, after all, it was specially designed for Albert by Fengya Wizard's Clothing Store, which must be a good thing.
"Wait until noon to change."
Albert didn't care too much, and didn't want to cause a commotion here.
"Are you familiar with the owner of Fengya Wizard's Clothing Store?" Arya couldn't help asking.
"I'm not familiar with it. It was sent by a friend. It was only borrowed from me temporarily and will be recycled." Albert explained as he handed the envelope to George.
"This should be considered a win-win situation. With Albert's current reputation, it is a free advertisement for Fengya Wizard's clothing store." Shanna calmly analyzed.
In the morning spell class, Professor Flitwick did not disappoint everyone, but helped them, or Albert, to review the spells they had learned in the past five years, and showed everyone his understanding and application of spells.
Everyone can see that Professor Flitwick is giving Albert a temporary lecture. Although it is a little late, it can provide Albert with some new ideas.
However, they didn't know that Albert, who didn't like to put himself in danger, had already figured out how to clear the first project.
The last few hours seem to have been stolen.
A minute ago, they seemed to be sitting in the classroom for a Charms class, and soon they were sitting in the hall for lunch.
Albert didn't eat too much. Anyway, there must be a celebration feast after the game. After a simple padding, he returned to the dormitory to change his clothes.
"Wow, this outfit is really cool."
Fred, George, and Lee Jordan stared at Albert as he came out of the dressing room, expressions of admiration that could not be concealed.
Inside the package is a complete set of clothes, from underwear, shirts, trousers, gloves, boots, socks, cloaks, just shorts underwear, after wearing it, it feels a bit like wearing a leather armor, the body joints are all There is protection, but it will not affect activities at all, and it is actually the same as ordinary clothes, or even more comfortable. The most handsome is probably the red cloak with the lines of a griffin outlined with gold thread.
"What is this made of, it looks so handsome." Fred, George and Lee Jordan all stroked the red cape on Albert's body curiously.
"It seems to be made of dragon skin."
Well, in fact, the whole suit is basically made of dragon skin except for the underwear and socks.
"Gosh, how much does this cost." Both Fred and George stared, the only time they saw an item made of dragon skin was their Aunt Muriel's handbag.
"Fengya Wizard's Clothing Store is really generous." Lee Jordan raised his eyebrows slightly and estimated, "I think this whole set on you may cost several thousand Galleons."
"Thousands of Galleons." Both Fred and George almost stuttered.
"Don't be silly. After the game, they will recycle this set for display." Albert looked at his clothes against the full-length mirror. He was very suspicious of ordinary spells hitting him, maybe will have no effect.
Suddenly there was a knock on the door, and Shanna's voice came from outside, "Albert, how are you? Professor McGonagall told you to hurry up, she's waiting for you in the hall."
"Okay," Albert put his wand back in the wand case, opened the door and walked out.
"You, you..."
Sanna was stunned when she saw Albert's outfit, and stammered, "This suit suits you."
"Isn't it cool? It's made of dragon skin, and a whole set may cost thousands of Galleons." Fred said enviously.
"How many thousand Galleons?"
Sanna's eyes widened in shock and she murmured, "I remember that Fengya Wizard's Clothing Store planned to give you a set of advertising fees afterwards?"
"Who knows!"
Albert left the common room amid the smirks of the girls. When he came to the hall, he saw Professor McGonagall and Harry Potter waiting for him in the hall. Potter did not change his clothes and was still Wearing normal robes.
Harry's eyes were glued to Albert's body after meeting Albert.
"Where did you get your clothes," Harry couldn't help asking.
"Fengya brand wizard clothing store sent it for me to try, it should be to let me help with an advertisement. After the Triwizard Tournament is over, this suit has to be returned." Albert explained.
"Isn't this a dragon skin?"
In the end, Harry couldn't help but reach out and touch it, his eyes fell on his clothes again, and he suddenly felt very insecure.
After seeing Albert armed to his teeth from head to toe, Harry suddenly regretted not getting himself such a suit.
Professor McGonagall was speechless when she saw it, but Albert's actions were actually understandable, and Albert was the most correct, just like when Lee Jordan asked her if Hogwarts had prepared for the Warriors Professor McGonagall was actually embarrassed when he participated in the protective gear and clothing used in the Triwizard Tournament, because no one at Hogwarts was aware of it at all, and he directly asked the warriors to take the wand to the competition.
"Looks like you're ready." Professor McGonagall put his hand on Albert's shoulder and said, "To be honest, I've never worried about you. Still, I'd say stay safe."
"I will." Albert looked at the crooked wizard hat and wanted to laugh. Professor McGonagall was obviously not as calm as he seemed.
"Don't be nervous, keep your head calm, and use your abilities to the fullest." Professor McGonagall said to Harry and Albert: "If the situation is not good, the wizarding meeting arranged by the school will come forward to control the situation."
"My words may be a bit ugly, but I have to remind you Potter, don't rely on others for your safety. If you are in danger, you should put your own safety first. As for the competition or For other things, let them go to hell!" Albert reminded, "You should protect your own safety first, and then the outcome of the game."
Professor McGonagall's face was a little stiff, but she had to admit that Albert was right, she actually thought so, but as a professor, she obviously couldn't say that.
"I'm ready," Harry muttered. He understood that it was Albert's reminder, after all, there was a guy hiding in the shadows who wanted to target him.
Professor McGonagall led the two around the edge of the Forbidden Forest and walked towards the big tent not far away.
"Harry, Albert, you are finally here!"
Bagman, wearing an old Hornets jersey, hurried towards the two and greeted them warmly: "Where did you get this suit from, it's so cool, maybe I should give Barty some advice. Let him prepare a similar outfit for all the warriors."
"Prepared by Fengya Wizard's Clothing Store." Albert shrugged. "They want me to wear it to the Triwizard Tournament."
"Those guys have great brains, I remember they advertised at the World Cup a while ago, and now they're all paying attention to you." Bagman put his hand on Harry's shoulder: "Relax. Just a little Harry, don't be nervous, just go in, it's like being in your own house!"
After Harry entered the tent, he felt bad all of a sudden, because Fleur and Krum both changed into costumes suitable for fighting the fire dragon, and he was the only one who was still wearing his usual robes. Harry now regrets not giving himself Buying a set of clothes like Albert's looks really handsome, maybe it can attract...
Bagman's voice interrupted Harry's thoughts, and he motioned for everyone to gather around him.
"Your mission is to pick up the golden eggs."
Bagman handed a purple silk sack to them, and happily announced in the tone of Santa Claus pulling a present from the sack: "When the audience is full, you need to pick out your A small model of the thing you are facing, they are the keepers of the golden eggs, and you need to confront them, overcome them, and get the golden eggs from their lair."
"Do you understand?"
No one responded, but Bagman was not embarrassed and signaled that everyone could find a place to sit first and wait for the official start of the game.
Albert pulled out his wand and waved, and the low wooden stool in the corner turned into a comfortable couch, "Sit down Harry, the Ministry of Magic is too stingy to prepare comfortable chairs for everyone. , by the way, do you want chocolate?"
To be honest, Albert even suspected that he was on the wrong side of the field. The space inside the tent was about the size of a classroom, but it was empty. There were only a few low wooden stools, and there was no comfort for the warriors at all. A resting place, so that Albert has the illusion that the Triwizard Tournament is very unreliable.
He took a bar of chocolate from his pocket, unwrapped it, put it in his mouth, and handed one to Harry.
"No, thanks." Harry refused with a stiff face.
"I mentioned this to Barty and thought that the warriors should have some comfortable places to rest, but he seems to be too busy and forgot to remind Dumbledore." Bagman answered with a smile. Passing the chocolate handed by Albert, he waved to Harry, "Sit here Harry, don't stand there stupidly."
Albert took out a few more pieces of chocolate from his pocket and asked casually, "Do you want chocolate? Eat something, maybe you won't be nervous."
Furong looked up at Albert, shook her head and refused. Krum obviously didn't want to eat anything given by strangers. He was calmer than Furong, but his expression was a little gloomy.
The waiting was undoubtedly the most torturous. The warriors waited for about half an hour before Bagman got up from the sofa and muttered that it was almost done.
"Okay, everyone, come here." Bagman handed the bag to Fleur Delacour and said with a smile, "Ladies first."
Clearly aware of her upcoming challenge, Fleur showed no surprise when she reached for a small, lifelike model of a Welsh green dragon from her cloth bag.
"Ms. Delacour, you are the second contestant to enter."
Bagman glanced at the number on the model's neck and handed the bag to Krum. The international Quidditch superstar pulled out the bright red Chinese fireball, apparently knowing that he was What will be faced, without even blinking his eyes, he returned to the chair again.
"Mr. Krum, you're the third player to enter the field." Bagman stretched his cloth bag toward Albert.
Albert put his hand into his pocket and fished one at random, and found it to be a silver-blue Swedish short-nosed dragon. The result was the same as in the novel, except that Albert replaced Diggory.
"Mr. Anderson ~IndoMTL.com~ You were the first player to enter the field, and you walked into the field when you heard the whistle," admonished Bagman.
"Looks like my luck is not bad." Albert smiled and looked at the model of the Swedish short-nosed dragon.
Harry still "draws" the Hungarian Horntail, the last warrior to enter.
If you are facing an unknown monster, the later you enter the game, the better, because you have more time to develop tactics.
However, when everyone knows what they have to face, the later the game, the more disadvantageous, because waiting will only make the Warriors feel restless for no reason, and other than that, there is no advantage.
A short while later, the whistle blew, and Albert stepped out of the tent, through a gap in the field fence, with deafening cheers ringing in his ears.
Albert didn't care about the cheering crowd or the sound of the panel task being triggered in his ears, but narrowed his eyes and looked at the silver-blue Swedish short-nosed dragon on the opposite side.
