Daily Life at Hogwarts Chapter 888: Fight the Dragon
Leave, subdue, and take the golden egg.
This is Albert's plan in advance.
It's easy.
But the simpler the plan, the less error-prone it is.
Leave the Swedish Short-nosed Dragon from its lair first, not for the convenience of stealing the golden eggs, but to prevent the dragon from accidentally ruining a nest of dragon eggs later.
After entering the venue, Albert did not rush to find the trouble of the fire dragon. Before starting, he looked up and looked around to make sense of his surroundings. This temporary magic venue is slightly smaller than the Quidditch pitch. There are many solid rocks around the venue, which should be shelters prepared by the organizers for the warriors to avoid the dragon's breath.
Without these shields, all the warriors would be in bad luck as long as the fire dragon pounced directly and breathed down.
"Let's welcome our first Warrior: Mr. Albert Anderson!"
In the stands, Bagman explained loudly, "Mr. Anderson has won many international awards in recent years, and is currently the most promising warrior in the top three cups. Let's see how he responds."
Albert! Albert! Albert...
There was a burst of cheers in the stands as people shouted Albert's name.
Albert ignored Bagman's words, let alone the audience in the stands, and walked straight forward, walking to a large pile of stones not far in front of the warriors that were used to hide the warrior's breath, and raised his wand With a slight wave, the man-high rock was divided into neat pieces by the cutting spell, and he began to concentrate on deforming one of the stones.
Seconds later, a male lion jumped off the pile of stones,
As Albert waved his wand again, another eagle appeared above the stone.
"Very exciting, very powerful Transfiguration, I think everyone should be able to guess Mr. Anderson's tactics, do you think he can succeed?" Bagman saw that the stone was turned into a lion and an eagle. His eyes almost bulged out, and he knew how difficult it was to deform like this.
Albert took advantage of his free time to sneak a glance at the new task he just triggered. There are three in total: in addition to the expected "picking up golden eggs", the second task is "Fire Dragon Conqueror" , let him subdue a dragon, the reward is rich, and the last task is to become a "dragon slayer".
Let me slay a dragon?
Albert raised his head and glanced at the Swedish short-nosed dragon crouching in front of him, considering the pros and cons of killing the guy in front of him. Items made of Swedish short-nosed dragon skin were sought after, and his eyes couldn't help falling on On the rich rewards of the Dragon Slayer quest.
In addition to a lot of experience, skill points, reputation, and the title of Dragon Slayer, you can also get a full set of dragon suits.
Honestly, this is a great temptation, it's far easier to "accidentally" kill a dragon than to subdue a dragon.
However, the impact of killing a dragon in a Triwizard Tournament may not be great. After all, the quest of the dragon slayer can be saved for later, so there is no need to rush it for a while.
The Swedish short-nosed dragon snorted, as if feeling the maliciousness that was constantly radiating from the human in front of him. The half-folded wings couldn't help but move, and the pair of cold vertical pupils stared at Eber in front of him. Special, seems to be thinking about **** the human in front of him.
The Swedish short-nosed dragon moved, and the malice on Albert made it inexplicably irritable, which was the feeling of being targeted by a predator. As a top predator, the Swedish short-nosed dragon has never felt so bad. It shook its mouth and seemed to be brewing something. After a while, it opened its mouth and spewed a dazzling blue flame towards the human in front.
"Oh my god, I'd say it's definitely over fifty feet." Bagman exclaimed.
The audience in the stands couldn't help screaming, and many girls closed their eyes in fear, unable to bear to see Albert, who was about to be swallowed by the breath of the Swedish short-nosed dragon.
The screams in the stands suddenly came to an abrupt end, because everyone found that the blue breath that was heading towards Albert went out without warning when it approached Albert.
Yes, the Swedish short-nosed dragon's breath went out, as if someone had made a joke with Albert.
"Oh my God, it was too dangerous just now." Bagman shouted: "It's unbelievable that Mr. Anderson could easily extinguish the dragon's breath with one person. It takes at least three All the above dragon trainers can do it at the same time."
The Swedish short-nosed dragon snorted, exhaled a small cloud of blue flames, and twisted its head slightly, but the vertical pupil was still fixed on Albert, and it opened its mouth again.
Albert looked at the fire dragon in front of him and muttered: "Is it really because the hatred is too much?"
Actually, Albert is now standing outside the theoretical breath range of the Swedish short-nosed dragon. Under normal circumstances, the range of the dragon's breath is about twenty feet, but I don't know what happened. The range of a dragon's breath is far beyond its limits.
The original plan should have been to let the lion attract firepower, but now it seems that wearing a dragon skin to fight a fire dragon is like a warrior's taunting skills, which directly attracts all the firepower.
Actually, Albert guessed wrong, the Swedish short-nosed dragon stared at him, not because of the fire dragon suit on him, but because of the malice that Albert had unintentionally exuded just now, the desire to kill The maliciousness of the Swedish short-nosed dragon in front of him completely irritated it.
However, Albert is not panicking. He has already made various preparatory plans. How to deal with the dragon's breath and how to deal with the current situation, there are naturally ways.
However, the dragon trainers who were on standby felt a little bad, because the time accumulated before the Swedish short-nosed dragon breathed was much longer than other times.
This is not a good sign.
That means that the next breath will be extremely dangerous, and the extinguishing spell may not be effective. This is the judgment of the dragon trainers after getting along with the fire dragon day and night.
They exchanged glances. If Albert couldn't hold it, they would immediately embrace and use the extinguishing spell on the fire dragon. Even if Albert was disqualified from continuing the competition, he could not be left alive by the fire dragon. burn.
Not only did the dragon trainer feel that way, but even Albert frowned, because the fire dragon didn't breathe right away, it looked like it was really... gathering strength.
Feeling that his life was threatened, Albert gave up using the extinguishing spell, but began to chant the spell and wave his wand. At the moment when the fire dragon's breath hit, the large stone that had been shattered by Albert began to pierce his body. Converging in front of him, a solid stone barrier was directly formed. The breath of the fire dragon slammed on the stone barrier, making the stone barrier start to become hot and red, but still could not hurt Albert who was hiding behind the barrier.
At this moment, not only the audience in the stands, but even the professors were sweating for Albert.
Because this time the dragon's breath did not stop immediately, it was even scarier and longer than before. If you just use the extinguishing spell, you may not be able to completely extinguish this long breath. The breath of the Swedish short-nosed dragon may take advantage of the trend. Albert was reduced to ashes.
"Be careful."
Someone screamed.
I saw that the Swedish short-nosed dragon had already flown out of the lair and rushed towards Albert. Its tail slammed **** the hot stone barrier, directly smashing the stone barrier, and the gravel splashed.
"My God."
The audience in the stands stood up one after another, watching this scene in shock.
Roar!
A deafening roar of a lion suddenly sounded, and a male lion jumped out of nowhere, attracting the attention of the fire dragon.
The male lion's active provocation annoyed the Swedish short-nosed dragon. It felt offended. In the eyes of the fire dragon, the so-called king of beasts was just a prey. Now the prey dares to take the initiative to attack him?
The dragon built up its strength and spewed flames at the lion, but the cunning prey quickly retreated into the pile of stones, dodging its breath.
The Swedish short-nosed dragon was extremely irritable, especially when it was provoked by its prey, which made it intolerable. It spread its wings, leaped to the stone in front of the lion, stretched out its claws and swiped it hard. The lion that had dared to roar just now drew aside.
The poor male lion was directly hit hard and collapsed to the ground. It doesn't look like the king of beasts, but it has done its job well: attracting the attention of the fire dragon.
When the Swedish Brachysaurus roared excitedly after it had killed its prey, countless hot stones fell on it, turning its roar into a painful howl.
Albert was still standing unharmed. Even the flame breath of the fire dragon and the blasting of the stone barrier could not hurt him. A small number of Slytherin students who saw this scene sighed for it. They seemed to want to Albert was burned to ashes by his breath, or crushed to death by gravel.
"God, the Swedish short-nosed dragon can't help Mr. Anderson in the slightest. He is still as calm and calm as always, and has not been hurt at all." Bagman shouted excitedly, "Look, this time it's your turn. Our warrior shot, what is he doing?"
Not just Bagman, but the rest of the audience, Albert's wand tip is spewing out a chain of smoke, shrouding the Swedish short-nosed dragon.
The fire dragon roared anxiously, shook its head, and even spewed flames to try to disperse the smoke that was shrouded in it, but the previous breath seemed to consume a lot of its strength, and the current breath looked weak, and there was no How much effect, because the smoke is still coming out of Albert's wand continuously.
Finally, the Swedish short-nosed dragon became more and more agitated, and set its sights directly on the culprit of all this. It wanted to kill the human who made it feel dangerous.
Before the action of the Swedish short-nosed dragon, the eagle, which was flying in the sky, swooped down suddenly and caught the fire dragon's eyes with its claws.
When the Swedish short-nosed dragon turned its head sideways to avoid a sneak attack, all attention was drawn to the eagle.
Albert waved his wand suddenly, and the smoke that originally surrounded the Swedish short-nosed dragon suddenly turned into chains. With his left hand slammed down, the chains all submerged into the ground, and he was about to spread his wings to chase after him. The eagle's Swedish short-nosed dragon was firmly trapped.
The sudden change shocked the Swedish short-nosed dragon. It flapped its wings desperately, only to find that the chain wrapped around its body completely bound it to the ground.
Even if she tried to break the chains on her body, she still couldn't fly. As Albert raised his wand and made an elegant arc in the air like a conductor, more and more chains of smoke were wrapped around the Swedish short-nosed dragon.
A terrifying roar sounded on the field, and the Swedish short-nosed dragon once again gathered its strength and suddenly spewed a large amount of dragon breath. Almost all the chains connected to the ground were evaporated. When it was about to flap its wings and fly, some stones followed. With Albert waving his palm, he slammed heavily on the Swedish short-nosed dragon, and in the painful roar, it lost its only chance to break free.
More chains sprang from the ground, completely entangling the Swedish short-nosed dragon's feet, and more chains entangled the Swedish short-nosed dragon firmly and bound it to the ground.
"Gosh, it's unbelievable, I wish Mr. Anderson would be gentle with our little cutie, after all she looks pathetic enough," Bagman said in a lighthearted tone.
With Albert's waving wand, the earth turned into a shackle, binding the fire dragon firmly to the ground. The arrogant head of the Swedish short-nosed dragon was also pressed to the ground by the lion with a bang, and the fire dragon's mouth was immediately bound by the shackles of the earth, and the whole body could not move.
The bruised male lion stepped on the fire dragon's head and raised his head to let out a deafening roar. This was probably the most glorious moment in the life of the king of beasts.
"Okay, look, Mr. Anderson subdued a fire dragon with such ease, it's unbelievable." Bagman shouted excitedly. He dared to say that it would be difficult to see such a wonderful picture again in his life.
Just before everyone could react, an eagle descended from the sky and placed the golden egg on Albert's claws on Albert's open palm. When he was attracted, the eagle did not know when he brought the golden egg from the nest for Albert.
Albert held up the golden egg in his hand to announce his victory to the crowd.
"My God, it only took a few minutes for our warriors to subdue the vicious dragon and easily get the golden egg. I dare say that the most powerful dragon trainers can't do this. Let's give the warmest applause and best wishes to Mr. Anderson's unprecedented feat." Bagman shouted loudly.
Albert! Albert! Albert!
In the auditorium ~IndoMTL.com~ Hogwarts students waved their red hats desperately and hissed Albert's name, red waves rising and falling with the sound.
Albert put down his golden egg and thanked everyone for their support. The screams, applause, and cheers that followed were deafening. At that moment, it was as if he was back after the Irish team won the Quidditch World Cup final. The crowd cheered and shouted.
Of course, not everyone had a smile on their faces, and the few students in Slytherin who hated Albert were very ugly.
The more successful Albert is, the more humiliating it is for them.
The expression of Mrs. Maxime of Beauxbatons was a little stiff, but it soon turned into a helpless sigh deep in her heart.
The expression on Durmstrang's headmaster Karkaroff's face was as black as the bottom of the pot, and he also clearly realized that Albert's great success was a huge threat to Krum.
It's almost impossible for Krum to catch up to Albert in points unless...
For Durmstrang to win, Karkaroff has some bad thoughts in his mind.
