Chapter 491 It’s raining, the game should be over (second update)

In order to maintain order at the Quidditch World Cup, almost all the high-ranking officials and staff of the Ministry of Magic were dispatched, and some had not slept for several days.

Along the way, he also saw Amelia Bones, Director of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement, Barty Crouch, Director of the Department of International Magical Cooperation, and his friend Amy, Deputy Director, etc.

Basically, the high-ranking officials of the Ministry of Magic were all there, including Malfoy and those Death Eaters who were fence-sitters.

"It's good that they are all here, and it's just right to catch them all in one fell swoop."

At the same time, Voldemort, disguised as George's thought body, also brought those Death Eaters who were once in prison to the swamp outside the competition venue.

"Master, shall we go in directly next?"

Bellatrix drew out the wand in her hand, and there was no fear in her eyes, but excitement instead.

George glanced at it, and except for Peter Pettigrew, the expressions of the other Death Eaters were similar to Bellatrix.

Because Bellatrix's group of Death Eaters had been using black magic to kill people for a long time, their minds had long been affected by black magic and distorted.

Later, he was imprisoned in Azkaban and tortured by Dementors every day. He was basically in a half-crazy state, not much worse than Voldemort after he divided the Horcruxes.

"No, it's not the right time now. Let's go out when the game starts and everyone is on the field.

Remember, you are not allowed to kill anyone without my order, otherwise this will be the end."

He pointed at Pettigrew, and a green light shot at Pettigrew, who looked incredulous, and killed him on the spot.

Although everyone was half crazy, their fear of Voldemort was engraved in their bones. Seeing that he killed Pettigrew casually, they nodded in fear.

Killing the chicken to scare the monkey, he wanted these Death Eaters to obey him, so he had to scare them from time to time. Pettigrew, a timid fence-sitter, could be used as a chicken.

After thinking all night yesterday, he had further improved his plan. If he acted according to the plan, there would be basically no problem.

But the premise is to restrain these half-crazy Death Eaters and not let them go crazy and kill indiscriminately.

At 1:30 pm, 100,000 wizards from all over the world walked out of the tents, lined up to enter the competition venue, sat in their seats, and began to cheer.

At 2 pm, on the commentary platform, Ludo Bagman, director of the Department of Magical Sports and Sports, put his wand to his throat and cast a sound amplification spell.

"Loud voice!"

His voice spread throughout the stadium.

"Ladies and gentlemen... Welcome! Welcome to the 422nd Quidditch World Cup!"

The audience burst into warm cheers and applause upon hearing the words.

At the same time, thousands of different flags were waving in the air, accompanied by the messy national anthems of various countries.

On the huge magic blackboard erected in the air, the last line GG (Bibi Multi-Flavor Beans - every bite is an adventure!) was erased.

Now it shows: England: 0, Ireland: 0.

"Okay, enough chit-chat, please allow me to introduce... the mascot of the Irish national team!"

At this time, the green square on the left immediately cheered, and then a huge golden and green thing flew into the stadium.

The golden and green thing exploded in the air, turning into beautiful fireworks of various colors, and then turned into a huge shamrock, the symbol of Ireland.

Finally, countless gold coins fell from the sky and landed in the audience.

If you look closely, you will find that there are many bearded little people in the shamrock carrying baskets and scattering gold coins. They are the famous Irish mascot leprechauns.

Although the gold coins of these leprechauns cannot be used as real gold galleons, it does not prevent everyone from scrambling for them.

After all, there are still many children who don't know and think they are all real gold galleons.

"Now!"

Ludo Bagman's voice sounded like a bell.

"Please raise your wands to the air... Welcome the mascot of the England national team!"

A group of red birds with long tail feathers flew into the stadium, circled the stadium, stayed in the air, and began to sing.

Their singing was so beautiful that all wizards could not help but be intoxicated by it and stopped quarreling over gold coins.

These birds are called red parrots. Their singing is beautiful and can soothe people. They are the mascots of the England national team.

Each country's Quidditch team has its own mascot. Ireland's is a leprechaun, Bulgaria's is a veela, Brazil's is Kurupila, Norway's is the Selma Lake Monster, and so on.

When the red parrots finished singing and left the field, the Quidditch players of both sides also rode on their broomsticks.

The Irish team all wore green jerseys, while the English team all wore red jerseys.

Seeing the players come on the field, the atmosphere on the scene was ignited again, and everyone shouted crazily for the team they supported and the players they loved.

Among them, George's voice was the loudest.

In order to respond to the audience's call, the wizard in charge of magic projection at the Ministry of Magic also gave George a close-up shot.

"Next, we welcome our referee, Hassan Mustafa, the well-respected president of the International Quidditch Federation, who has flown all the way from Egypt!"

A short, thin wizard wearing a pure golden robe that matched the color of the stadium strode onto the field.

He held a large wooden box under one arm and his broom under the other.

"No game allowed."

After solemnly reiterating the rules of the game to the players of both teams, he kicked the big wooden box open and released four magic balls.

A bright red Quaffle, two black Bludgers, and a very small winged Golden Snitch, which disappeared from everyone's sight as soon as it appeared.

The speed of the Golden Snitch here was obviously much faster than that in the school game, but because the Golden Snitch was made of metal, George always knew the location of the Golden Snitch.

However, he did not immediately catch the Golden Snitch to end the game, because the Thought Body had just entered from the periphery with the Death Eaters.

"Troy scored again, 10:0, Ireland is leading!"

Less than 20 minutes into the game, the Irish team had already scored ten points.

No wonder, in terms of real level, the English team could not even enter the top ten, how could it beat the strongest Irish team.

The promotion was all thanks to George's ability to catch the Golden Snitch at the last minute, and this time was no exception.

"It's raining, the game should end!"

George, who had not moved, watched the light rain falling from the sky, and flew towards the hiding place of the Golden Snitch on his broomstick at an accelerated speed.

Voldemort, disguised as a thought body, had entered the venue and completed the first step of the plan. It was time to end the game and start the second step of the plan.
