Hogwarts Kryptonian

Chapter 168 Warrior

In a blink of an eye, the time came to night. The dinner ended in a strange calm and excitement.

Lu Yunkai ate very calmly, but Daphne next to him looked like a steamed crab, with her face flushed.

She regretted why she chose to eat with her back to the wall today just to watch the fun.

As a result, she found that at least one-third of the people in the entire auditorium were staring at her...well, okay, actually staring at Lu Yunkai next to her.

This matter...can't really blame others, she has to blame herself.

Lu Yunkai originally didn't want to sell the potion to Malfoy, and the matter was over, but she felt that it was stupid to not make money without making money, so she took two bottles of potion from Lu Yunkai and went to Pansy.

I heard that Daphne spent a lot of effort and even used some methods that may be "inconvenient to describe" to help her grind the potion from Lu Yunkai. Without saying anything, Panxi directly agreed to use three thousand gold to add it. Long bought these two bottles of potion from Daphne.

Of course, it's the mode of issuing an IOU and paying it back later...

Then Malfoy, with the support of his girlfriend, took the potion and tried to sign up.

success.

Two people in a row successfully registered using the same method! ! The news suddenly gained wings and flew throughout Hogwarts.

It's just that the cost of this potion also flew all over the school.

Three thousand gold galleons! !

The winner of this series will only be given a thousand...

But wait a minute, who enters this competition for the prize money! That's an honor! ! Is there any eternal glory? !

Ever since, Daphne suddenly received a lot of "inquiries".

She accepted the order and then resold it...

She sold seventeen sets of potions in one afternoon.

A total of fifty-one thousand gold galleons! Lu Yunkai even said that Daphne only needed to give him one thousand gold galleons for materials, and the other fifty thousand would be regarded as her "commission from hard sales"...

Daphne swore that in all her years of living, she never thought that one day she would be able to earn so much money easily!

But only now did she realize the shame.

She wished the dinner party would be over quickly so she could hide back in her dormitory.

And finally as she wished, after finishing dinner, Dumbledore stood up and came to the podium.

The original buzz in the hall disappeared instantly, and the eyes cast on Lu Yunkai finally looked at the white-bearded elder.

However.

"I hope everyone is full. After all, for some students, today's dinner is not cheap."

Following Dumbledore's first words, almost everyone in the hall instinctively looked at Lu Yunkai.

Daphne's head was buried directly under the table.

Lu Yunkai, on the other hand, had a smile on his face and looked like he was not afraid of boiling water.

"The Ministry of Magic's original intention is to ensure that students participating in the competition are safe, and the age of seventeen is just the most common way to judge your level of learning magic. If a student's ability exceeds his grade, They are also eager to prove themselves, so we can't completely block their ideas of proving themselves." Dumbledore smiled and glanced at Bagman, who was smiling on the rostrum, and still expressionless. The upright Crouch said, "We actually believe that the Goblet of Fire will make the most appropriate choice for the players who are suitable to participate in the Triwizard Tournament. Otherwise, it would be better for each of our schools to select, nominate, and then compete."

Bagman nodded, Crouch was dumbfounded.

I don't have any idea of ​​proving myself, I just think it's fun to crack your magic. Lu Yunkai complained silently in his heart.

"Now, let the Goblet of Fire make its judgment." Dumbledore smiled and took out his wand, then waved it in the direction of the foyer outside the auditorium.

The stone platform with the Goblet of Fire on it flew into the auditorium and landed in front of everyone.

That age circle with blue light is still there.

Dumbledore lifted the spell he had set and came to the Goblet of Fire.

"I estimate that the Goblet of Fire will announce its decision soon. At that time, I hope that the students selected by it can come to the front. On the one hand, I can introduce it to you, and on the other hand, I will also receive some information about it later. The most basic training for the game..." Dumbledore said while waving the wand in his hand again.

The brightly lit auditorium suddenly became a lot darker.

All the candles that were purely for lighting were extinguished with his wave, leaving only the candles with some degree of decorative effect placed in the pumpkin lanterns still flickering with flames.

After the surroundings became dark, the flames of the Goblet of Fire became more dazzling and brighter.

Then, it’s all about waiting. Everyone in the auditorium was staring at the ugly wooden cup.

I don’t know how long I waited.

finally.

There was a pop.

As the flames of the Goblet of Fire suddenly dimmed, a small flame flew out of the cup. Then, as if time had gone back, the flames slowly spread outwards. In the middle, a piece of burnt parchment paper Strips show traces.

And as the flames of the paper flying into the air were completely extinguished, the fire in the Goblet of Fire returned to its original bright blue-white color.

Standing next to the Goblet of Fire, Dumbledore reached out and grabbed the parchment, glanced at it, and then showed it to the hall.

"Durmstrang's Champion... Viktor Krum."

Instantly, applause and cheers echoed throughout the auditorium.

Not a surprising result at all.

Even Lu Yunkai, who was applauding, had a smile on his face.

Durmstrang only threw in the names of ten people today, and they all thought they were accompanying him...

The applause lasted for a long time, and he stood up with a smile on his face, clapped his hands to the classmates beside him, and walked to the front desk. Before he could leave the table, the bright Goblet of Fire dimmed again. .

Another piece of parchment flew out.

"Champion of Beauxbatons, Fleur Delacour."

Dumbledore took the note and read it again.

This time, the applause was still warm, but the atmosphere was different.

Unlike Klum's natural smile just now, Fleur was obviously stunned when she heard her name again, and then she actually shouted out excitedly.

The younger sister sitting next to her also hugged her excitedly.

The sisters did not even care that the veil fell from their faces.

Sitting not far away from her, there were several Beauxbatons students who probably felt that they were likely to be selected, and their expressions were obviously very bad...

This time the Goblet of Fire seemed to wait a little too long, just like it took Fleur a long time to calm down.

Then like Krum, she came to the front desk.

Krum also greeted the excited Fleur in a gentlemanly manner, and the two shook hands in a friendly manner.

Then, the auditorium fell silent.

Everyone is waiting for the last and most important thing, the birth of the Hogwarts Warriors who will play at home today.

However.

It does take a long time.

So much so that Minister Bagman frowned and was about to stand up.

Finally, the flames dimmed.

A dark red flame that looked like magma from hell flew out of the Goblet of Fire wrapped in something.

Dumbledore caught it, unfolded it, and was slightly stunned.

Almost everyone present was stunned when they saw Dumbledore's expression.

"...The warrior of Hogwarts, Lu Yunkai."

Dumbledore unfolded the note in his hand.

The whole place was quiet.

There wasn't any applause.

Almost everyone looked over at once.

Then they saw a guy standing there, looking like a stone sculpture.

Lu Yunkai was dumbfounded.

No, I just cracked the age circle magic for fun, please don’t tease me, okay? ? After all, you are also the Goblet of Fire, an ancient magical artifact that has been passed down for hundreds of thousands of years! Are you pretending to be blind, or are you really blind? Am I worthy of being a Hogwarts warrior? ? I don’t even deserve the key! !

"Lu Yunkai, come to the front."

Dumbledore also seemed to see Lu Yunkai's look of being frightened by the choice of the Goblet of Fire, and gave him a reminder.

"But Professor..." Lu Yunkai stood up, but still looked like he had not recovered.

"Yesterday I reminded you to be careful before signing up. Since you threw your name into the Goblet of Fire..."

"But what I wrote on it was...Harry's name!!" Lu Yunkai said with a bitter smile, "How could there be a note with my name on it!"

Quiet.

All the students' eyes suddenly turned to Harry Potter who was sitting there watching the excitement.

"...Yunkai, why did you write my name?" Harry was completely confused.

"I'm just having fun!! And I think that as a warrior who represents the students of Hogwarts... I'm afraid there is no one in the entire Hogwarts who is more worthy of the title of warrior than Harry, who destroyed the mysterious man, right? Lu Yunkai said with a depressed look.

What he said made sense, and it was also in line with Lu Yunkai's habit of giving Harry a high look. Even Harry himself couldn't say there was anything unreasonable about it.

But that's not the problem.

"Since your name appears in the Goblet of Fire and the contract has been successfully concluded, you must participate in the Triwizard Tournament. And in fact, even if you don't write anything on the note you threw into the Goblet of Fire, the Goblet of Fire will know who he is. Report your name.”

Sitting on the rostrum, the man who Lu Yunkai thought was mute and who had never made a sound finally spoke.

Barty Crouch.

The meaning is obvious. You tried to deceive the Goblet of Fire and failed. Now that you signed up and were selected, it's you.

It's too late to regret.

The atmosphere in the entire hall instantly became weird.

"Come to the front..." Before Dumbledore could finish his words, suddenly, the Goblet of Fire dimmed again.

Then, a note flew out from inside.

"Haha!! There are people! Let me tell you! The Goblet of Fire must have felt angry that I was making a joke about it and wanted to scare me, so it made a non-existent note..." Lu Yunkai said quickly.

However.

"...and a champion chosen by the Goblet of Fire...Harry Potter."

Dumbledore unfolded the note in his hand with a solemn expression.
