Harry Potter and the Temple of Tales

"Cedric, how did you know?"

As for the first item being a dragon, Louis already knew from the beginning. There is no doubt that the content of the Triwizard Tournament is extremely dangerous for any underage wizard who has not received professional training, and their first

The problem encountered was fighting a real fire dragon.

What surprised him was not the content of the game, but that it was Cedric who came to tell them the content of the game.

"Well, I heard what Hagrid said." Cedric's tone was hesitant, "There are fire dragons transported from Romania in the Forbidden Forest. As contestants, you really shouldn't know so early, but

Since Krum and Delacour already know about it, this is not something that is hidden."

On the surface, the Triwizard Tournament looks quite fair. The Goblet of Fire is used to select the warriors who best represent each school. All processes are handled by the Ministry of Magic. Before the start of the competition, the official will not reveal any content of the competition. But in fact,

, there are very few people who can truly abide by this rule.

Both Madame Maxime and Karkaroff want their students to win, so they will do everything possible to gain an advantage as much as possible.

This also resulted in the Hogwarts Warriors becoming the most disadvantaged team before the first project started. Except for being familiar with it at home, they knew nothing about the rest.

(Because Dumbledore, the old man, does not take advantage of his students like the principals of the other two schools, it may be that he is not interested in the winner of this competition.)

Of course, Barty Crouch Jr., who is in charge of the competition, will not let this happen. He must ensure that Harry can pass the competition smoothly and win the championship at the last moment.

"Thank you, Cedric." Harry didn't think there was anything wrong with Cedric coming to tell him. Instead, it was because people from Hogwarts should help their own people.

"Anyway, you must be prepared." Cedric said, "Facing the fire dragon, even an adult wizard cannot 100% guarantee that he will be able to pass through safely."

Harry nodded, while Louis was thinking about Cedric's intention. He said that the argument he heard from Hagrid was not true.

It is indeed possible that Hagrid had access to the progress of the project, but based on his relationship with Harry, why did he not tell Harry secretly but instead revealed it to Cedric of Hufflepuff?

Moreover, Cedric's relationship with Harry was not good enough to reveal the secret to him. Could it be that he felt that fellow Hogwarts people needed help?

.....

"You're wrong, Harry, the Flying Curse is not how you wave a wand."

"Concentrate and imagine what you want to summon."

"Something is coming! It's not flying away!"

In the next few weeks, Louis could always hear Hermione's furious roars in the common room, as well as the rapid collision of objects, and he didn't even know how many ceramic vases were broken.

But Harry's progress was not fast. Colin and Ginny were always there to comfort him. The Flying Curse was a magic that only fifth-year students could master. It was indeed a bit difficult for Harry, who was in fourth grade.

Harry drooped his head, looking dejected, but Louis was sitting on the sofa with his legs crossed, with a Marauder's Map spread out on top.

In the past few days, there has been no substantial progress in finding Barty Crouch Jr. This cunning Death Eater has not revealed any clues, and several key targets on the Marauder's Map have always behaved honestly.

Where they should be.

Ron still did not reconcile with them. When he saw Harry and Louis, he always deliberately took a detour. He would only pretend not to see them when Hermione was present.

The most embarrassing thing was Harry, because they were in the same dormitory and could not see each other without looking up, and Ron's sulky character made him very unhappy. Whenever Ron was mentioned, he always got angry in front of Louis and Hermione.

If Ron stubbornly believed that Harry threw his name into the Goblet of Fire, then there really was no room for discussion between them.

"Harry, you have to hurry up, the first project will start next week." Hermione said with some worry, "And you can't even master the Flying Charm well now."

"I know Hermione, but I can't concentrate very well right now." Harry looked a little irritated, "You know, a big and ferocious dragon keeps appearing in my mind..."

"You're just too anxious, Harry." Ginny advised from the side, but thinking back, anyone who encountered an adult fire dragon would probably have anxiety.

"Maybe I can learn from Louis, how to overcome the fear of dragons." Harry spread his hands. The most relaxed person in the entire common room was probably Louis, who was wandering leisurely.

Hermione was about to say something when the door to the common room opened, and a first-year student stumbled in. His face was flushed, as if he had just run a thousand-meter run.

"Are they Harry Potter and Louis Wiggins?" He said in a breathless tone, "Mr. Bagman and Mr. Crouch are waiting for you. They are in the classroom on the third floor. They let you go, like Olivier

Mr. De and a woman are also here."

"Okay, thank you. We understand." Harry nodded friendly.

"Mr. Ollivander? What is he here for?"

"It should be a wand check before the game starts." Louis tapped the Marauder's Map, muttered silently: "The prank is over." and put it away.

"In order to ensure fairness, the Triwizard Tournament will inspect each contestant's wand and make sure there is no problem before they can participate in the competition."

Louis explained, of course, he excused this argument by saying that he had read the records of the Triwizard Tournament in the library.

I followed Harry to a smaller classroom on the third floor. Most of the desks and chairs had been moved to the back, leaving an open space. However, there were two tables side by side, covered with velvet.

cloth.

"Ah, you are finally here, very good, very good." Mr. Bagman seemed very happy, and he enthusiastically led Harry and Louis to the back.

"Don't be nervous, it's just a wand test, a routine matter."

Louis found that Fleur and Victor were already sitting behind the table. Compared to the cold stares from the Nordic people, Fleur seemed more friendly. She also smiled at Louis and nodded, completely forgetting the extremely humiliating incident a few weeks ago.

of a battle.

"Of course, before all this starts, we need to take a photo. The Ministry of Magic has invited the most influential reporter in the press, a professional editor of the Daily Prophet, Rita Skeeter."

Under Bagman's welcome, there was a man sitting in the corner with huge strange eyes, curly hair, a big chin, thick nail polish, and a crocodile in his hand.

Woman with leather bag.

Her eyes were burning with the fire of gossip, and she stared at the boy with the lightning scar with interest.

Louis couldn't imagine what terrible consequences would happen if he was targeted by this woman.
