Daily Life at Hogwarts Chapter 889: Score and Riot
After Albert successfully subdued the dragon and got the golden egg, the first person to rush into the arena was not a dragon trainer, but a flamboyantly dressed wizard who looked like a reporter , because there was a wizard with a camera next to him.
Albert saw a familiar figure behind the wizard, Mr. Mogg standing at the entrance of the venue waving at him.
"Please stand in front of the fire dragon and let me take a close-up of you."
The wizard grabbed Albert's hand and greeted the photographer next to him, "Take a photo of us first."
Albert withdrew his hand in disgust, barely maintaining a smile on his face, and asked, "Who are you?"
"Almost forgot," the wizard introduced himself. "My name is Mike Dabo, the general manager of Fengya Wizard's Clothing Store. Nice to meet you, Mr. Albert Anderson."
"Hello, Mr. Dabo."
When Albert saw Mog, he vaguely guessed who the flamboyantly dressed wizard was in front of him.
"If you want me to take pictures with you, let the dragon trainer stun the dragon first. I don't want to have my back to a dangerous dragon."
"You're right, it's always right to be cautious." Dabo put his arms around Albert's shoulders and said, "I've discussed it with the dragon trainers just now."
Albert felt uncomfortable all over. He used the excuse of saying hello to Mog, and directly wrenched away Dabo's arm. That guy was not as strong as Albert.
"Well, as I said, you won't suffer." After saying hello to Albert, Mog said to Mike Dabo with a smile, "You can't cut corners with your advertising fees."
"Naturally not," Mike Dubbo said happily.
"Time is limited, we'd better finish the photo as soon as possible without causing trouble for others."
"You're right." Mike Dabo greeted the dragon trainers and led Albert over to take pictures.
Observing the Swedish short-nosed dragon up close, Albert felt that this guy was more dangerous than expected. Its body length was about 20 feet, and it was like a hill. If he could, Albert would never get close. Standing in front of a fire dragon, he would never turn his back to a living fire dragon.
However, a group of dragon trainers are on standby next to him to ensure that the fire dragon does not suddenly wake up and kill him.
Albert stood in front of the fire dragon, with the fallen Swedish short-nosed dragon as the background, a male lion lying on his feet, an eagle squatting on his shoulders, which was reduced by his shrinking spell, holding a golden egg in his hand, With a confident smile facing the camera ahead, the picture freezes in the camera.
"Perfect, I think the girls will go crazy for you."
Mike Dabo said in a pompous tone, "I believe it will work better than advertising at the World Cup."
In Mike Dubbo's opinion, Albert is a living legend, and handsome enough that he has decided to hang the photo he just took in the Fengya Wizards clothing store.
After taking a few pictures in a row, Albert took the golden egg and walked out of the arena with them, no longer bothering the dragon trainers.
Of course, Mike Dabo also gave the dragon trainers a bonus by allowing them to buy custom fire-resistant clothing at a relatively low price at Fengya Wizard's Clothing Store.
Naturally, the dragon trainers have no problem with it, it's only a few minutes anyway, and the Swedish short-nosed dragon has been subdued by Albert.
The judges in the stands didn't even care. They were gathered together and whispered about Albert's performance.
"You've done a great job, and I think Poppy must be very pleased that you didn't need a medical tent." Professor McGonagall walked towards Albert, with a look that could not be concealed on his normally serious face. Smile, "Go, your friends must be waiting."
Albert looked past Professor McGonagall and saw Isobel and Katrina coming towards him.
"He's handsome."
Isobel walked quickly to Albert and embraced him with open arms.
The dragon egg slipped from Albert's fingertips and fell to the ground, he stretched his arms around Isobel and kissed her on the lips.
The surroundings suddenly became very quiet. Fred, George, and Lee Jordan, who hurried over, whistled, and the other girls laughed unnaturally.
The cameraman next to Mike Dabo wanted to capture this scene, but Mog stopped him by raising his hand. He shook his head at Mike Dabo, motioning him not to do that, in Albert's character , If Mike Dabo dares to take his private photos as a collaborator, the two sides will have no talk, and the fragile cooperative relationship will definitely collapse.
Think Albert is just a kid?
Look at the hapless Rita Skeeter, why she didn't even dare to mess with Albert's news, the woman who gave the British Ministry of Magic a headache.
I don't know how long it took, the two separated again, Isobel's face flushed, she whispered: "Don't do such a risky thing in the future, you really surprised me just now." /
"Don't worry, I never do anything I'm not sure about." Albert softly reassured.
"Of course I have confidence in you, but I'm still worried." Isobel knows Albert's character very well and knows that Albert pays great attention to protecting himself, but having confidence and not worrying are two different things.
"Sure enough you are the best."
"You can easily overpower a fire dragon by yourself. You probably don't know that the girls in the stands are crazy about you."
"I dare say this will be talked about for years."
Fred, George, and Lee Jordan greeted Albert and Isobel with excitement and enthusiasm after they separated, and handed back the golden egg that had fallen on the ground. he.
"Okay, you see I'm almost blushing from your praise." Albert joked with a smile.
"I think they're going to rate you, I bet they'll give you full marks."
Sanna, Angelina, and Arya also came over, and if Isobel wasn't here, they would have gone up to give Albert a kiss.
"Let's go back to the stands!"
Albert took the golden egg from George and led Isobel towards the stands, leaving behind a large group of envious girls.
Katrina stared blankly at the backs of the two leaving, and followed them towards the stands.
Albert subdued the dragon, and it didn't take long for the dragon trainer to get it away.
The judges have also negotiated the results, and by the time Albert goes to the stands, the scoring has already begun.
The first referee to score the Warriors was Mrs. Maxime of Beauxbatons, who raised her wand and spewed a silver ribbon from the tip, twisting in mid-air to form a large "10".
Mrs. Maxim already knew Albert's strength for a long time, and she was lucky, but when she saw that Albert had subdued a fire dragon in a few minutes, she chose to give up the needless struggle to lie down It was flat, and I gave Albert a full score.
No way, Guy's series of tricks at the Magic School Potions Championship last time cast a cloud over Beauxbatons, and the reputation of Beauxbatons suddenly got a lot worse.
So, Mrs. Maxime decided to be aggressive, at least no one would say that Beauxbatons had issues like fairness in the game.
As for Guy's case, that's a private matter and the school doesn't know about it.
Madame Maxime didn't know about it?
Of course not, but as long as you have good excuses and make everyone's face a good one.
Whether it was Crouch, Dumbledore, or Bagman who gave Albert a 10.
Then, only Karkaroff remains unrated.
He gave Albert 1 point under the watchful eyes of several judges.
Yes, 1 point.
As for the reason, Karkaroff thought about it.
Albert's dragon suit obviously violates the fairness of the game and is very unfair to other warriors.
After the big "1" appeared, the atmosphere in the venue couldn't help but stagnate, and even the surrounding judges looked at Karkaroff with strange eyes.
Bagman looked at the "1", his face even collapsed, and he opened his mouth. Before he could say anything, he heard a loud boo from the surrounding stands, followed by It was a lot of yelling: words like eating shit, shameless, shameless resounded through the audience.
Karkaroff was about to say his reason for the 1 when he was interrupted by a few flying boots.
I don't know who took the lead in throwing things at the referee bench. More and more students threw garbage, dung bombs, and various things at Karkaroff. The scene was extremely chaotic.
Even the Durmstrang students in the audience raised their hands to cover their faces, not knowing what to say.
They were ashamed of Karkaroff's actions.
Even students from other schools admired Albert's single-handedly subduing a fire dragon, and the whole process only took a few minutes.
Even if Karkaroff was thrown on the field, he couldn't do that.
"Oh, my God." Bagman gave Karkaroff a dissatisfied glance, and said yin and yang, "The audience is obviously **** off by the unfair rating."
Mrs. Maxime looked at Karkaroff with the same complex expression, and she actually guessed that Karkaroff would lower Albert's score.
In fact, this is everyone's tacit understanding, trying to lower the scores of other warriors as much as possible, but this kind of thing is also scored, everyone gave 10 points, what do you mean by 1 point?
If it's just an ordinary warrior, Karkaroff's doing this is not really a big deal. After all, a low score is nothing. At most, it will cause dissatisfaction among the supporters of the Warriors. Just find a reason to prevaricate it. No matter how dissatisfied everyone is, what can they do?
However, this Mr. Anderson is clearly an exception, don't you notice how popular he is?
Mrs. Maxim doubted whether Karkaroff had a problem with his brain and really couldn't understand the situation, so why make his reputation worse?
However, no one went out of his way to correct him, and Karkaroff probably wouldn't listen anyway.
Actually, it wasn't that Karkaroff couldn't listen, but that he didn't think he would kick the steel plate at all, let alone that Albert had a large support group.
Fans are never a rational group, especially a group of girls, they don't listen to Karkaroff's reasons, especially when the other referees give full marks, the girls will not allow their warriors to suffer Such unfair treatment. So, with someone taking the lead, they started throwing things in protest.
With the girls taking the lead in protesting, others joined in, they didn't care what the other judges were feeling, anyway Karkaroff's rudeness annoyed most of the students at Hogwarts, they thought Ai Bert deserves full marks.
Actually, Albert was the fastest to subdue the dragon, and he deserved a full score for clearing the first item unscathed.
"Oh, my God, my God!" Bagman shouted in a loud, high-pitched voice, "please stay calm, let's hear why Mr. Karkaroff rated it like this!"
Bagman's proposal is clearly ill-intentioned.
Karkaroff's face was particularly gloomy, and he said loudly: "The fire dragon suit on Mr. Albert's body obviously violates the principle of fairness in the game and is very unfair to other warriors."
"Fair bullshit, you are the least qualified to say that."
I don't know who shouted, and I saw a curse flying towards the referee bench.
Everyone couldn't help but raise their wands and threw curses at Karkaroff on the bench.
This guy really disgusts them.
Bagman was taken aback by the madness of the students. If he was hit by such a large number of curses, 80% of them would be taken directly to St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Injuries.
Fortunately, Dumbledore waved his wand in time and deployed defensive magic to protect the referee bench, otherwise 80% of the referee bench would be blown away by this wave of curses.
The scene where a lot of curses exploded outside the enchantment was so spectacular that even the enchantment that Dumbledore unfolded gave a lot of cracks.
If there is another wave, I guess it really can't hold up.
"Okay, even the Quidditch World Cup has never had such a riot, how should we clean up the mess now?" Bagman cast a glance at the livid Karkaroff, and turned to Dumbledore. Showing his hands there is nothing he can do.
"Quiet, quiet!"
Dumbledore roared angrily ~IndoMTL.com~ He didn't expect the situation to get out of control. The students at Hogwarts not only threw things at the referee's bench, but in the end they even threw curses directly. At least a hundred people did that just now.
The main thing is that there are too many supporters of Albert. After Fred, George and Lee Jordan secretly took the lead in throwing magic at Karkaroff, the girls were also led to coax and vent their dissatisfaction, By the way, he brought other people who were dissatisfied with Karkaroff along with him.
After all, it used to be frustrating for the Slytherin Quidditch team to do whatever it took to win a game, but now in a school match, there are still people who dare to do it blatantly, and even find one like that Excuse, is this treating them as fools?
However, Dumbledore's roar didn't help, and a second wave of curses followed, blowing the referee's bench away.
As for the other judges, they were taken away by Dumbledore using Apparition.
"Is that scene filmed?"
Rita Skeeter shivered with excitement, "I dare say this has never happened before. The judges of the Triwizard Tournament are questioned and boycotted by all the students. This will definitely become the hottest topic." /
