Chapter 522 Less "painting big cakes"!
·

At eight o'clock in the morning, the students came to the gate of the castle to assemble on time.
They were led by the deans of their respective colleges and went to the hunting grounds in the distance.
There stands a huge triangular tent in the hunting ground, which is the starting point of the first project.
The first-year freshmen were at the back of the queue, looking at a group of seniors in front of Wuyang Wuyang, they showed envious expressions.
"Except for Krum, I will not let go of any other Durmstrang!"
"If I really meet Krum, as long as he signs for me, I will let him go."
Kong Nuo was walking on one side of the team. In addition to the excited discussion of the students, there was also the interpretation of Dumbledore's mission.
"Konno, I have to trouble you this time... The return of the old Barty Crouch has caused some confusion at the Ministry of Magic."
"The wizard who was supposed to help make the Portkey failed to complete the task in time, so..."
"This is extra work. You didn't pay me what I want, so I can choose to refuse!" Kong Nuo said indifferently.
"Actually, there are other plans. For example, let the school board wholesale a batch of broomsticks. Probably enough to satisfy everyone."
"Students use broomsticks to enter the Forbidden Forest. I am responsible for destroying those broomsticks to disrupt their order of entry."
Grindelwald, who was listening in, began to learn and use it, "Tsk...you seem to be quite disdainful!"
Kong Nuo immediately said: "You don't care about Beauxbaton's students, what are you doing next to the principal?"
"Eavesdropping on secrets, right? In public, Beauxbatons and Hogwarts are rivals!"
"Ahem..." Dumbledore interjected with a light cough, "Konno, I know that you helped the students start a trick before, and you can move magical animals from the Forbidden Forest to the hunting ground."
"I saw this with my own eyes, so I think you can help me. As for the reward... this is the concentrated dragon blood, which is a derivative of my previous research."
"I think that you are no longer interested in ordinary materials, and the preparation of this dragon blood concentrate is very complicated, and it may be used as a reward for the mission."
"The overall value is actually inferior to that of Phoenix Tears, but the painstaking efforts it can represent cannot be given to you by Phoenix Tears."
There must be an element of modesty in Dumbledore's words, after all, he is the discoverer of "Twelve Uses of Dragon's Blood".
He has a very comprehensive understanding of dragon blood, a magical material, and understands how to dig out its functions and effects, and maximize them.
And the super-doubled material of dragon blood concentrate is also produced based on this theoretical basis.
"Okay!" Kong Nuo took the magnificent ruby-like glass bottle, the liquid inside was radiant, with an indescribable beauty.
He blinked, activated the instant "observation" ability, and swept across the bottle.
As expected, the original various functions of Dragon Blood have been greatly enhanced, and in terms of versatility, it can be regarded as reaching the level of Phoenix Tears.
If it is added to the elixir, it can also increase some medicinal properties, and at the same time make the taste better, adding a wild flavor from the fire dragon.
"Is this the only one?" Kong Nuo asked with burning eyes.
"During the Triwizard Tournament, there may be many things that have to trouble you." Dumbledore shook his head, "If you think the reward is appropriate, I can make a few more."
"You are much more kind than Grindelwald! Grindelwald only knows how to draw big cakes, and you are so stupid!" Kong Nuo complained.
"Then I'll go and prepare first, anyway, it's a piece of cake... But my concession is only limited to this Triwizard Tournament!"
"Of course, I have troubled you!" Dumbledore nodded, watching Kong Nuo suddenly disappear into the air.
"Aren't you afraid that he will sit on the ground and raise the price?" Grindelwald asked suddenly.
"Gellert, I know him well..." Dumbledore shook his head, "What he cares about is not how precious the dragon's blood concentrate is, but how much I paid for it."
"That's why I chose the dragon's blood concentrate...I hope to let him see my sincerity. Obviously, I still did it this time."
"This way of getting along is pretty good!" Grindelwald commented, "I understand a little now why you always want to hand over your burden to him."
"After getting along for this period of time, I gradually feel that this is a very good decision... Have you communicated this with him?"
"I've mentioned it many times!" Dumbledore sighed slightly, "Even the principal's letter of appointment is ready."
"It's a pity that he is more open to power than all of us... He has always been extremely resolute in his rejection."
"Perhaps because of the unfair treatment he has encountered, he has no interest in the so-called 'expectation' and 'future planning'."
Grindelwald suddenly thought of an interesting thing, and couldn't help laughing, "Expectations and future plans? I mentioned to him about the establishment of the Wuzi Party."
"He only has one comment on what I do, which is called 'painting big cakes'. He hates other people painting big cakes for him the most!"
"Yes!" Dumbledore also smiled, "He also said similar things to me!"

In addition to one side of the original triangular tent, there is also a built triangular stand.
Those first-year freshmen who cannot participate in the Triwizard Tournament will watch the game through a magic projector.
As soon as Conno appeared outside the triangular tent, he heard Ludo Bagman just finished explaining the basic rules.
"So where's the Portkey?" At this moment, Karkaroff's voice suddenly sounded, with meanness and sarcasm in his voice.
"Randomly sent to the Forbidden Forest, then there should be a lot of portkeys prepared. But why... I didn't see any portkeys here?"
"Could it be that you guys weren't ready at all? It's been more than a month! You don't even have broomsticks!"
"Is it because your Ministry of Magic is engaged in internal strife, so there is no time to prepare? I want to complain to the International Federation of Wizards!"
Maxim also spoke at this time, but she said to Karkaroff, "What are you worrying about? I believe Dumbledore will come up with a solution!"
Karkaroff was not to be outdone, "You're the only one who believes this kind of thing! It's been a long time since he showed up in school, anyway, I..."
Kong Nuo directly opened the curtain of the tent, and said to Karkarov: "If you have any complaints, you can complain, and you'd better retire! Anyway, you Durmstrang have never won the trophy of the Triwizard Tournament !"
