Chapter 88 Prologue 1

"Ministry officials are full of shit in their heads," Moody kept criticizing the Ministry like an angry young man: "We should search for the traces of Death Eaters at this time."

"Those people just want to keep their positions."

Moody was very happy that Weiss agreed with him and had a good impression of Weiss. Although Moody's magic power was not as deep as Weiss, he had rich combat experience and shared a lot of useful combat skills.

"You can't be soft-hearted when dealing with dark wizards. They won't give you a second chance."

Moody has a deep study of dark magic and does not shy away from using it. According to Moody, only by being more cruel, more despicable, and knowing more about dark magic than those dark wizards can they be suppressed.

After the new semester started, the students were most worried about the Defense Against the Dark Arts class. Everyone had heard of the legend of "Mad-Eye" Moody, and was worried that he would cast the Unforgivable Curse on students like he did on Death Eaters.

In fact, what students don't know is that although Moody is strict, he is very measured and will not attack students.

"The previous Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher was too gentle," Moody said in a conversation with Weiss, "We need to make students truly understand the dangers of the dark forces."

He was very satisfied with the battle practice arranged by Weiss before and decided to keep it. Moody's course is much stricter than Professor Lupin's, and the young wizards complained bitterly, especially the Slytherin students.

Most of the criminals arrested by Moody were from Slytherin College, and some of the children's relatives and parents were imprisoned in Azkaban by him. Growing up hearing about his deeds, these children feared and hated him.

"If you grow up like your parents, I will throw you into Azkaban to reunite with them." Moody's words scared several children to tears, which made the students of the other three colleges watch a lot of good shows.

Time passed quickly, and it was already October in a blink of an eye.

On this day, all the teachers and students in the school took a day off to welcome the guests from afar - the students and principals of Durmstrang and Beauxbatons.

Representatives from Beauxbatons and Durmstrang will arrive at Hogwarts today.

Although the average temperature in the UK in October is around 6℃-16℃, it is rainy today. Students hiding under raincoats have begun to complain about the bad weather.

The sound of wings flapping in the air came from the sky, and the sharp-eyed students have seen the huge aerial carriage - it is simply a mobile villa, with a body shining with golden light and decorated with gorgeous patterns.

The carriage is pulled by eight divine rune horses, whose size and strength far exceed those of ordinary horses, giving them strong physical strength and endurance.

The huge aerial carriage slowly landed on the campus of Hogwarts in the light of music and magic.

The door opened and a lady came out.

She is tall, even a head taller than Hagrid, and exudes a majestic temperament, which is really impressive.

This lady is the principal of Beauxbatons, Mrs. Olympe Maxime, and Mrs. Maxime is followed by the students of Beauxbatons.

These students were obviously dressed up carefully, wearing exquisite silk robes, and walked down the carriage gracefully, looking very noble and elegant.

One of the girls attracted the attention of most students. She had long silver hair, deep and clear blue eyes, and a delicate face like a princess in a fairy tale.

This girl was Fleur Delacour, who was particularly eye-catching in the crowd.

The students of Hogwarts cast envious glances, especially the male students, who were attracted by her beauty.

"Wow, the students of Beauxbatons are so beautiful."

When Dumbledore and Madam Maxime were talking, a low roar suddenly came from the sky.

The students of Hogwarts looked up and saw a huge black ship slowly rising from the lake. The scene was extremely spectacular. The black ship docked at the shore, and Igor Karkaroff led the students of Durmstrang wearing fur cloaks and blood-red robes and walked down the ship aggressively.

Victor Krum, the seeker of the Bulgarian national Quidditch team, stood next to Karkaroff, and his appearance immediately caused quite a stir.

"Merlin's beard is Krum!!" Krum showed his skills in the Quidditch World Cup that just ended, and became an idol in the hearts of countless fans.

Now, he came to Hogwarts as a student of Durmstrang, which made the whole campus boil.

"Long time no see, Dumbledore." Karkaroff first hugged Dumbledore, and then proudly introduced Krum to him: "This is the best seeker in the world and a warrior of our school-Victor Krum."

Krum was very humble, not as flamboyant as Karkaroff. He nodded slightly and greeted Dumbledore.

Dumbledore smiled and responded: "It's nice to meet you, Mr. Krum. Your performance is indeed impressive."

Dumbledore welcomed the guests into the hall, and the warmth here made everyone take off their raincoats. The house elves had already prepared a sumptuous dinner, and specially prepared French and Nordic food to welcome the guests.

No mistakes, just go to the 6-9 book bar!

The hall was filled with all kinds of tempting aromas, and the students sat around the long table, tasting food from different countries.

When the banquet was halfway, Dumbledore stood up, knocked on the cup, and motioned everyone to quiet.

"Dear classmates," Dumbledore's voice echoed in the lobby. "Today, we not only ushered in friends from Bossbaton and Demston, but also an important ceremony. "Open the veil of the Flame Cup" "" "

Under the witness of everyone, the three principals of Dumbledore, Mrs. Maxim and Kakarov embarked on the podium together, revealing the black cloth covering the flame cup.

The Flame Cup looks just a cup made of shabby wood. There is nothing special. However, it is the highest honor for students of the entire European magic school.

Dumbledore explained: "This flame cup will choose the warriors of the top three hegemony. Students who are 17 years old can put their names into the Flame Cup. Tomorrow night, the flame cup will be selected from each other. A warrior at the school participates in the next game. "

There was a sudden discussion in the hall, and the students had begun to plan how to sign up for the competition. They discussed excitedly, hoping to seize this great opportunity to make the best.

"In order to avoid voting at low grades," Dumbledore draws a line on the ground. "This is the age limit line. Students under the age of 17 cannot cross this line."

Some low -grade students have begun how to cross Dumbledore's magic.

Dumbledore knows the minds of the students, but he does not intend to interfere. If even a student can solve his magic, then he is not worthy of being called the greatest white wizard.
