Chapter 176 The Fourth Warrior

"It seems that everyone is looking forward to it."

Professor Dumbledore stood up with a smile, and the food on the long table disappeared with this movement.

He walked to the Goblet of Fire:

"Let me see...it may take another minute. After the warriors are selected, all warriors please come to the front and go to the side hall in front of the auditorium."

Professor Dumbledore pointed to the side.

"There you will receive instruction regarding the Triwizard Tournament."

Time passed by, and under everyone's expectant eyes, the blue-white flame of the Goblet of Fire suddenly turned red, sparks constantly bursting out, and suddenly a tongue of fire sprang up, bringing out a piece of burnt parchment.

Professor Dumbledore grabbed the parchment, looked at it in his hand, and then looked at the Slytherin table with a smile:

"Durmstrang's Champion - Viktor Krum!"

Applause and cheers rang out, and Cologne clapped and looked at Cedric. Cedric smiled and clapped like everyone around him, and didn't seem to be worried at all about having such a competitor.

Krum stood up with a calm expression and walked past Professor Dumbledore and the teacher's chair towards the side hall.

After a few seconds, the flame of the Goblet of Fire turned red again, and a piece of burnt parchment flew out of the flames.

"The Champions of Beauxbatons——"

Professor Dumbledore glanced at the parchment and then said:

"Fleur Curadle!"

There was also warm applause, but Beauxbatons students seemed to be more emotional, and several students who were not selected couldn't help wiping away tears.

But there was no moment of mourning for the students who were not selected. What came immediately was...

"Next up are the Hogwarts Warriors!"

Hufflepuffs all looked at the Goblet of Fire expectantly. The flame turned red again. A small piece of parchment was grabbed by Professor Dumbledore and put into his hand for inspection.

When Professor Dumbledore looked at the Hufflepuff table with a smile, everyone knew it.

"The Champions of Hogwarts——"

Professor Dumbledore amplified his voice:

"Cedric Diggory!"

"oh--!"

Cheers and applause erupted, and Adam even joined in the fun by taking out his wand and spraying a bunch of petals and ribbons from the top of the wand, but he controlled the direction so that Cedric would not walk into the side hall with his head full of flowers.

"Okay, now our three warriors have been selected. The next thing everyone has to do is cheer for the warriors from their respective schools. I hope they will..."

Professor Dumbledore's speech was interrupted by the sound of rising flames behind him. He turned his head, and red flames came into view, and a piece of charred parchment flew out.

Catching it almost subconsciously, Professor Dumbledore glanced at it and his eyes widened.

His eyes quickly glanced around the teacher's chair, the long table below and the side hall. Professor Dumbledore cleared his throat under everyone's gaze:

"Harry Potter!"

Professor Dumbledore asked Harry to go to the side hall without expression, and then announced that the dinner was over and everyone could leave.

The originally noisy and lively dinner ended in a strange atmosphere. Professor Dumbledore and the others entered the side hall one by one, while everyone else returned to the common room.

"Harry Potter must have cheated!"

Ernie said confidently.

"But how did he do it? The age line was drawn by Professor Dumbledore himself. No one can..."

A Hufflepuff said this and glanced at Adam.

Wait, there seems to be someone here who can cheat the age line.

It’s not that everyone doubts that Adam will sign up Harry. As we all know, Cedric is also Adam’s good friend, but since Adam can cheat the age line, maybe Harry can too...

Back in the common room, everyone asked Adam how he hid the age line. Maybe Harry used the same method. Adam did not say how he hid the age line, but guessed:

"In Harry Potter's case, it was probably a confusion spell."

Under everyone's gaze, Adam sat on the sofa and spoke:

"I don't know if you have noticed that the parchment with Harry Potter's name written on it does not have a corresponding school."

"You mean, he used a confusion spell to fool the Goblet of Fire into thinking a fourth school had joined the competition?"

Senior Sister Vivian has graduated. The person who spoke was another female prefect, Diana. She twisted her fingers around her long golden hair and frowned:

"This makes sense. Only Harry Potter signed up for the fourth school. The Goblet of Fire had no choice... but does he really have the ability to do it?"

"The Goblet of Fire shouldn't be so easily deceived, right? Otherwise Professor Dumbledore wouldn't use it to select warriors, not to mention the Confusion Curse is not that simple a spell..."

After returning to the dormitory, Eugene questioned Adam's guess.

"My words may be a bit blunt, but Potter doesn't look like someone who would learn to this extent."

"So, the person who signed up Harry Potter may not be Harry."

Adam paused before continuing:

"Even, not necessarily a student."

"That fake Professor Moody? Is he here for Potter?"

Colon suddenly remembered the problematic Professor Moody that everyone had discussed before.

"Ah, Potter, Potter again!"

Bernard finished the remaining homework and stretched:

"Why does it seem like all the guys with evil intentions come to school because of him?"

Although I don’t know exactly what happened in the first year, those inexplicable extra points at the end really make people think about it. Professor Quirrell is most likely the mastermind behind the scenes, and the mastermind behind the scenes has been there several times in Quidditch matches before. For Harry Potter.

I heard that the second-year idiot Professor Lockhart also liked to pester Harry Potter every day to gain popularity, and the guy who secretly opened the Chamber of Secrets also put the blame on his head.

There was nothing wrong with the third-year Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, but I heard that Sirius escaped from prison just for Harry Potter, and even broke into the Gryffindor common room for him.

Now in the fourth year, come again?

"Is that Potter some kind of princess who is imprisoned in a castle, and waves of people come to rescue her?"

Colon summed it up for Bernard after recalling it.

"But it doesn't seem to be a bad thing for Potter this time?"

Uther was leaning on the folded quilt and reading a book. He raised his head and recalled:

"I saw his expression at that time, which was quite surprising."

"He'll soon run out of surprises."

Adam shook his head.

"Indeed, you can tell by looking at everyone's expressions at that time... The people in Durmstrang and Beauxbatons will think that Hogwarts is cheating, and the people in Hogwarts will think that he is cheating - after all, this is very Gryffin A lot, isn't it? The lions must be cheering for his feat, but the others won't like it."

Bernard took out a book from the cabinet, borrowed it from Professor Moody,

"Even some Gryffindors can't do it. He is so popular, how can he not make people jealous? But the contract of the Goblet of Fire prevents him from quitting to prove his innocence. Poor man... I say, Just give him some truth serum."

"That's true, but I'm not just referring to other people's criticisms... Remember what Professor Dumbledore said, right? The Triwizard Tournament is not a child's play, people have died before... I hope he is prepared."

Adam shook his head, picked up Xiao Ke and Si Bi and got into bed:

"Good night everyone~"
