Chapter 258 The most popular little wizard on the field
"Oops, the situation is not good!"
Bagman's urgent voice spread throughout the audience from the commentary box.
"I temporarily searched for the fire dragon information in my hand and discovered a very important problem - unlike the fragility of other fire dragon eyes, the eyes of Australian opal eyes actually have a high level of magic resistance..."
"Mr. Krum's response to the fire dragon's use of the eye disease spell is not bad, but he was unlucky and encountered the Australian Oval Eye, an alien species among fire dragons..."
While Bagman was speaking, the Australian Opal Eye's dragon claw had already slammed down on Krum.
Krum was worthy of being a top professional Quidditch seeker. He reacted very quickly and immediately erected an iron armor spell to block himself.
However, the fire dragon's weight alone was not something that could be stopped by a mere armor spell. The transparent barrier in front of Krum was trampled to pieces almost instantly.
Krum used the iron armor spell to delay the dragon's claws for a moment. He rolled on the ground in embarrassment and dodged the Australian Oval Eye's claws... However, he was no longer able to dodge the fire dragon's other claws. A giant claw.
There was a gasp in the entire auditorium, and many Klum fans screamed in terror. Some of them even climbed over the fence in front of the auditorium, trying to rush to the arena to rescue their idol. .
"Oh, no! Mr. Krum can't dodge the fire dragon's claws this time..." Bagman's voice involuntarily amplified, with an unprecedented nervousness in his tone, "Is he going to be stepped on by the fire dragon? Yet?"
At this moment, the falling movement of Australia's giant claws stopped abruptly.
A flowing figure with silver hair and a black and red cloak was reflected in Krum's frightened hole.
"Oh! Look, our safety officer took action, and the warriors on the field were saved." Bagman shouted excitedly.
Then, he suddenly rubbed his eyes in disbelief, "Wait, am I right? He...he...our security officer stopped the fire dragon's attack with his bare hands?"
The audience had the same reaction as Bagman. They opened their eyes wide and watched Dracula standing in front of Krum on the field of the Four-wizard Tournament. He raised his hand casually, as if he had caught a ball lightly. A feather blocked the fire dragon's huge claws above its head.
Compared with the fire dragon, Dracula's tall figure among wizards seems so small.
However, such a small figure made it difficult for a giant like the fire dragon to move forward. He could only stand on the ground with his feet crooked and staggering, and his angry expression became a bit naive.
This kind of picture gave people a strong contrast, but all the viewers present did not expect that an even greater contrast was yet to come——
Dracula seemed to be tired of raising his hands, so he casually shook the hand that was blocking the claws of the fire dragon...
It was such an easy throw, but the fire dragon felt like it was hit hard.
The huge body seemed to have been kicked hard, flying high into the sky, directly pulling the chains binding the four legs straight.
Then, it fell heavily to the ground, splashing dust all over the sky.
The earth was still shaking and roaring, and the Australian Oval Eyes were still wailing in pain, but the arena of the Four-wizard Tournament fell into an eerie silence.
Everyone stared blankly in the direction of Dracula, feeling extremely unreal...
Such a strong and terrifying fire dragon was slapped away by the security officer?
On the playing field, Dracula casually dusted himself off and turned to look at Krum.
"Mr. Krum, do you know what mistake you made?" he said with a chuckle.
Krum raised his head blankly, his eyes still full of shock.
"You failed to adapt in time," Dracula pointed out Krum's problem.
"Actually, the innocent eyes of the Australian Oval Eyes are quite obvious. The first moment you saw them, you should have realized that the eye disease spell may not have the expected effect on them, but you still ignored the subsequent response."
"Battles never rely on a single magic spell to be foolproof..."
Dracula's reminder was over, and then, as if he had driven away a small insect, he straightened his clothes, turned around and left the field leisurely.
The narrator, Ludo Bagman, didn't finally recover from his horror until he watched Dracula leave.
"Aha, this... we can see that the configuration of the Four-wizard Tournament is quite high." He laughed twice awkwardly, and said with a trembling tone, "It turns out that our security officers are fully protected. The Warriors' safety capabilities, with him here, the probability of problems in the game will be greatly reduced!"
The audience finally came to their senses and applauded enthusiastically. Many people clapped their palms red.
The scene just now was so exciting!
A small human being was able to block a huge dragon with his bare hands, and even slapped the dragon away...
They have never seen this scene before!
On the field, several nurses from the Hogwarts Infirmary quickly ran up to Krum carrying a stretcher and asked if he had any injuries.
Klum held the half-broken golden egg and refused to go to the infirmary for examination, but chose to stay in the audience to continue watching the rest of the game.
The dragon trainers from the Romanian Fire Dragon Sanctuary hurried forward to check whether the Australian Oval Eye had been harmed, and worked together to drag it off the field, and then brought the fire dragon that the warriors would face in the next game to the field.
"Ahem... Now let's ask the judges to rate Mr. Krum."
Bagman suddenly remembered his business, and then continued to preside over the process of the game: "This is the first warrior to cause a safety officer to be dismissed. What score will the judges give him?"
Mr. Crouch had a somewhat impatient expression on his face and took the lead in raising the scoreboard with the number "5" written on it;
Bagman thought for a while, maybe because he and Krum were both professional Quidditch players, and gave him a 7 points;
Dumbledore, Ms. Maxim, and Professor Hicks also raised their signs one after another, indicating 7 points, 6 points, and 7 points respectively.
When the audience's eyes turned to the last judge, Durmstrang's principal Karkaroff, they were shocked to see that the principal shamelessly gave Krum a 9...
In the end, Krum scored 41 points and temporarily ranked third.
"Shady! Absolutely shady!" Fred and George once again raised their loudspeakers and shouted at Karkaroff.
"Why! Why did Cedric, who managed to get the complete golden egg, only get 6 points, while Krum, who only got the broken golden egg and let Professor Dracula come to the rescue, got 9 points? "
Many young wizards in Hogwarts were also shouting and protesting, complaining for the warriors of their own school.
As for those fans who want to support Krum regardless of right or wrong, they have already been condemned by other young wizards at Hogwarts and are drowned in the angry emotions of Hogwarts students.
"I, Karkaroff, have absolutely no bias towards Victor!"
Karkaroff is still quibbling: "Although there were some minor flaws in Viktor's game, his courage to face the dragon is something that no other warrior has, so I think he deserves this score." !”
"Uu——"
The whole audience booed.
It's a pity that Karkaroff didn't care about the audience's evaluation at all. Instead, he sat proudly on the judges' bench and urged Bagman to start the next game.
"Okay, there was a little hiccup, but it's not a big problem." Bagman sighed, and immediately returned to his energetic state, "Let's see... the next one is John from Yinfamouni. Mr. Kowalski!"
"The fire dragon he is facing is the Chinese Fireball Dragon. It is often called the 'dragon lion' by Eastern wizards. It is a very strange-looking variety of fire dragons..."
During Bagman's introduction, John had already walked into the arena and looked at the fire dragon whose body was covered with smooth scarlet scales.
As Bagman said, the shape of the Chinese Fireball Dragon is indeed rather weird. It has a lion's nose on its face. There is a circle of golden tassel-like spikes around this nose, and its eyes are protruding, like two big light bulbs.
"Okay, after the first three rounds of competition, we have seen different ways of dealing with the fire dragon by different warriors, and their performances were all very exciting..." Bagman said, "Next, let us witness Mr. Kowalski What will happen..."
Bagman's voice suddenly paused.
The audience was a little confused by the narrator's behavior in mid-sentence, but when they looked at John's movements, all their actions stopped invariably like Bagman.
Some of the audience present had their eyes widened and looked at John blankly; some had their mouths twitching, not knowing what to say or how to react; some even covered their eyes, completely speechless. The way you see it.
Amid the strange looks from the audience and the commentator, Dracula curiously cast his eyes on John on the field.
The next moment, Dracula's expression almost became tense——
He saw that John was swaying his hands, twisting his thighs and hips, swaying his waist, and doing a dance that he didn't know what to call... Well, maybe it could be called a dance...
"What is he doing? Dancing samba?" In the audience, Ron looked at John's movements in confusion and asked Hermione next to him.
"I don't think Samba is like this..." Hermione, who was well-informed, was also confused and said hesitantly, "Maybe this is a ceremony before the start of the America Wizarding Competition?"
At the judges' table, Dumbledore also had a cheerful smile on his face.
"Lally, John dances the tango well." He said to Professor Hicks with a smile.
"This is not tango, Albus..." Professor Hicks's already dark face turned even darker, "You clearly know what he is doing!"
On the other side of the auditorium, Rolf Scamander in the Hufflepuff crowd couldn't help but cover his eyes.
"Your grandfather secretly turned on a small stove for him?" Dracula's voice suddenly rang in his ears.
Luofu opened his eyes and saw Professor Dracula, who had been flying above the arena, appearing in the audience at some point, with a dumbfounded expression on his face.
"Ah, Professor Dracula, you have guessed this..." He looked around and lowered his voice and said, "John actually learned magical beast knowledge from his grandfather for several years. This time Harry put the content of the competition After telling me, he directly contacted my grandfather with my double-sided mirror..."
"As soon as my grandfather heard that John was going to deal with the fire dragon, he was very happy and immediately taught him a 'dance' over the mirror... Well, it's what John is dancing now."
Dracula burst out laughing.
He couldn't help but want to laugh when he thought of Newt standing behind the small two-way mirror, twisting his waist and swinging his arms while dancing.
"Your grandpa is so talented that he actually came up with the idea of using dance to deal with the fire dragon... Hahahahaha..." At the end of the sentence, Dracula finally couldn't help laughing loudly.
"Next time I ask him to dance for me, I really want to know how the ninety-year-old guy twists his waist..."
"My grandpa's health is much better, let alone the low-difficulty dance like the fire dragon..." Luo Fu said with a slight blush, "Even the mating dance of the rhino-horned beast and the hand-raising dance of the manticore, he can do it. I can jump!”
"Didn't your grandma ever stop him from doing this weird 'dance'?" Dracula asked curiously.
"Originally, my grandma was not willing," Luo Fu coughed dryly, "but the more he danced, the better he became, so later on, even my grandma joined in..."
"As expected of Newt, he really deserves it..." Dracula silently gave a thumbs up.
At this moment, a little witch with messy dirty blond hair came over and inserted herself between Dracula and Rolf.
"Good afternoon, Professor Dracula." She greeted in an erratic tone.
"Good afternoon, Miss Lovegood." Dracula chuckled, "Are you here to see Love?"
"Yeah!" Luna nodded, and then took out two hats from somewhere.
Perhaps the quantifier "top" should not be used for these two hats, but "only" -
Both hats are in the shape of a lion's head, as big as a real lion's head. When Luna holds it in her hand, she makes a very realistic lion roar from time to time.
"Luna, what are you..." Luof glanced at the hat in Luna's hand, feeling a bit of an ominous premonition in his heart.
"Rolf, the next game is Harry's, let's cheer for him together!" Luna said happily, "Look, these two hats can both reflect the Gryffindor house where Harry is. , and just enough to cover up the shouts of others with the lion’s roar!”
She smiled and put the lion's head hat into Rolf's hand.
Rolf looked at Professor Dracula with a desperate expression, hoping that he could say something, but...
"A very good idea, Miss Lovegood." Dracula said happily, "You will definitely become the most popular little wizard on the field today!"
