Harry Potter and the Secret Treasures

    Ivan couldn't be as calm as Kreshkov, and just rushing to run out of his physical strength.

    He slipped slowly from Buckbeak's back and felt his knees tremble.

    He is now sore in muscles, and even his breathing is generally painful.

    Buckbeak turned his head, and Amber's big eyes didn't understand Ivan looking at his body.

    Ivan gave a wry smile and let Buckbeak leave.

    He walked slowly to the Hagrid hut, and although he was tired, the harvest of this expedition was beyond imagination.

    After seeing the powerful magic, Ivan decided to change his research direction.

    Focus on the ancient magic language and the magic recorded in the Book of Abraham to understand the Magical Theory involved.

    Ivan sat in Hagrid for more than an hour, drinking tea and discussing issues related to Blast-Ended Skrewt feeding.

    He didn't know how the Blast-Ended Skrewt, Fire Crab, and finally Manticore ended in the ruins, but in the midst of such a massive collapse, they should have followed.

    If Hagrid knew about it, it would definitely be a sad cry.

    When the time was nearly five o'clock, Ivan was dragging his tired body back to the castle when the setting sun slowly fell.

    He had just walked into the foyer of the castle and saw a large group of students crowded around a big plaque erected at the foot of the marble staircase.

    WHAT HAPPENEDIvan asked, next to him was Ernie Macmillan of Hufflepuff.

    He squeezed out from the crowd, his eyes sparkling,

    "Only a week!"Ernie said excitedly.

    "What is only a week?"

    "Triwizard Tournament !"Ernie quickly replied, because the excitement of the whole person was slightly trembling, "the School has just posted the notice, beauxbatons and Durmstrang representatives will arrive on October 30 Friday Six o'clock in the evening, the afternoon of the course will be half an hour before the end of the day, Then please send the school bags and textbooks back to the dorm, meet our guests in front of the castle, and then join the Welcome Banquet. ”

    "Oh, is Beauxbatons and Durmstrang coming?!"Ivan is stunned, and the calculation time is almost the same.

    He received a letter from Gabrielle not long ago, she told Ivan that Beauxbatons' students are ready to leave.

    Not surprisingly, her sister Fleur performed very well in the school's internal primaries, very optimistic about Madam Maxime, and Gabrielle became the only Beauxbatson junior to have the opportunity to visit Hogwarts.

    "Ivan, you are here, I haven't seen you all day, what are you doing?!"

    Harry, Ron, and Hermione were eager to squeeze out of the crowd, and they just finished watching the notice.

    “I went to Professor Moody to ask some things about the course.”Ivan simply said.

    "Okay, my go!"Ernie said, "I don't know if Cedric knows about it. I want to tell him…"

    "Cedric?"After Ernie hurried away, Ron said a little stunned.

    "It's Diggory!"Harry said, "He is definitely ready to participate in the hegemony."

    "I remember, the idiot, he wants to be Hogwarts' Champion?"Ron frowned.

    They pushed the crowd and walked toward the auditorium.

    "He's not an idiot. You didn't like him because he beat Gryffindor in the Quiddich game."Hermione said, "I heard that he is a very good student, or a Prefect."

    Listening to her tone, it seems that Prefect itself explains everything.

    Oh yeah?Ron frowned, as if he wanted to refute Hermione.

    But in the end, nothing was said. Since the last time, the two people have been getting along very cautiously.

    In the following week, while Ivan concentrated on magic, there was a noticeable change in the castle.

    Now, no matter where they go, people seem to only talk about one topic: Triwizard Tournament.

    The rumors spread quickly among the students, like the highly contagious bacteria: who would compete for Hogwarts' Champion, what will be the hegemony, and how the students of Beauxbatons and Durmstrang differ from them.

    Ivan is naturally a popular candidate for Hogwarts' Champion, although he does not meet the seventeen-year standard set by Dumbledore.

    But there are still many who think he will find a way to participate and become a champion.

    After a period of heated discussion, this rumor came to an abrupt end.

    Ivan didn't intend to be a champion in the hegemony, and it was circulated from the Gryffindor circle.

    While Ivan felt sorry and gratified, the young wizards also selected the strongest students in their minds.

    Most of the senior wizard, who is 17 years old, seems to think that they have the possibility of becoming a champion.

    At the same time as everyone talked about it, the castle was thoroughly cleaned.

    Many dirty portraits were wiped clean, even though those who were scrubbed were very dissatisfied with it.

    They huddled in the picture frame and muttered in a sullen mood.

    Every time I touched the pink and tender meat that was newly exposed on my face, I felt a painful grin.

    The armor on both sides of the corridor suddenly became twilight and light, and it no longer rang when it was active.

    The concierge, Argus Filch, was guarding the door of the auditorium every day. When he saw that the students had forgotten to clean the shoes, they were fiercely frightened and scared two first-grade girls to commit hysteria.

    Other faculty and staff are also extremely nervous, trying to make everything appear in the most perfect state.

    When the morning of October 30th, when everyone went downstairs for breakfast, they found that the auditorium was decorated overnight.

    There are huge silk banners hanging on the wall, each representing a House of Hogwarts: Gryffindor with a red lion on the red background, Ravenclaw with a bronze eagle on the blue background and Hufflepuff on the yellow background with a black eagle. The green base with a silver python is Slytherin.

    Behind the teacher's desk, the biggest banner is hung.

    Above is the coat of arms of Hogwarts: lions, hawks, lynxes, and snakes are joined together, surrounded by a large letter H.

    Ivan, Harry, Ron, Hermione, Colin, and Ginny looked around and sat down at the Gryffindor's table.

    Beside them, Fred and George are pressing on the voice to discuss what is going on, and they are unusually avoiding everyone.

    Ludo Bagman was hiding from them, and the letters that the twins wrote to him some time ago were sent back intact.

    "This is not very pleasant, I admit."George said to Fred in dismay, "But if he can talk to us indiscriminately, we have to send the letter to him, or put the letter directly into his hand, he can not hide from us forever."

    "Who is hiding from you?"Ron curiously said, walking over and sitting next to them.

    "No one, I hope you can hide from us."Fred said it seemed very unpleasant to be bothered.

    "What is not very pleasant?"Ron asked George.

    "Because you are such a silly brother who is nosy."George replied.
