Chapter 487 Party A: Dumbledore

The next morning, the Hogwarts Express left the station as scheduled.

Tom announced good news to Hermione.

"Professor Flitwick and McGonagall have decided to help us apply for the right to use the Time-Turner for another semester!"

For projects like this that have already been approved, the chances of re-applying will be higher, so Tom and Hermione's holding on to the Time-Turner for another semester is already a sure thing.

The train will take eight hours to London. During this period, Tom and Hermione prefer to play wizard chess to pass the time. If they are tired from playing wizard chess, they can also play small games such as crackling and exploding cards to relax.

Just as Hermione's chess pieces were closing in, almost encircling Tom's main force and eating them in one bite, there was a strange noise from outside the car window, and a big golden-red bird appeared gracefully in front of the car with a letter. Outside the carriage, it followed the train and flew up and down.

It's Phoenix Fox!

Tom hastily opened the window and invited in the incredible messenger. Fox put a letter in front of Tom, holding his head proudly. On the envelope is Dumbledore's unique cursive script.

"Dumbledore is really cautious... actually let the phoenix deliver the letter." Tom lamented Dumbledore's extravagance.

Dumbledore chose to ask Phoenix to deliver the letter, firstly to ensure speed, and secondly to ensure safety. Of course, the cooperation of Fox is indispensable.

Tom took the opportunity to push the wizard chess board aside, opened the envelope and read.

In the first half of the letter, Dumbledore and Tom communicated, telling him that the plan had started and the "actor" had been arranged. The second half is a bit magical. Dumbledore told Tom that the next school year will usher in the Triwizard Tournament. He gave Tom a detailed introduction to the origin, purpose and process of the Triwizard Tournament, and attached the Triwizard Tournament project he conceived with the letter.

Dumbledore wrote in the letter: [The Sorcerer's Stone Guardian level you planned before was very exciting, so this time I hope you can make persistent efforts and put forward some suggestions for improvement]

"What was written in Dumbledore's letter?" Hermione's curiosity was aroused. She wanted to know what kind of letter Dumbledore sent with a phoenix.

"There will be a grand event at Hogwarts next year, and Dumbledore would like to get some advice from me." Tom looked at the letter in his hand while looking for an excuse to respond to Hermione.

Since Tom mastered the power of dementors, Tom's status in Dumbledore's heart has been raised a lot. Coupled with his previous conversation with Dumbledore, Dumbledore completely put Tom on the same level as him.

Now Tom is not only a student of Hogwarts, but also the spokesperson of an important force in the magic world. Dumbledore needs to work hand in hand with Tom if he wants to destroy Voldemort. After all, it was Tom who came up with the plan...

However, asking Tom to conceive the project of the Triwizard Tournament is indeed somewhat unexpected. Tom suspects that Dumbledore is trying to fish, but he has no proof.

"Festival?" Hermione was drawn to the word, hoping to get a word out of Tom. Hermione didn't quite understand either, Tom seemed to be getting better all of a sudden, and even Professor Dumbledore wanted to get advice from him. This feeling is like studying together and suddenly getting a perfect score in the exam is as shocking as it is.

"Are you sure you want to know? If you know in advance, there will be no surprise." Tom doesn't like spoilers. In his opinion, spoilers are like playing a game and learning the content of the next version from the ghost in advance. It can satisfy himself Curiosity, but excessive spoilers will also overdraw my interest in the game.

"Just a little bit!" Hermione couldn't suppress her inner curiosity at all, and her thirst for knowledge was rolling in her heart, like a naughty kitten licking the soft flesh around her waist frantically.

"Okay, let me reveal a little bit... Next semester, there will be students from other magic schools coming to Hogwarts!"

"Really?"

"Sure, sure and sure."

"Which schools are those?"

"Guess what schools do you want?"

"Let me think about it...Wagadou in Africa, and Castro Buche in Brazil! It is said that the wizards in Waggadu are very good at casting spells without a stick, and they are also good at transforming into Animagus. Castor in the rainforest Robusch is a school with a long history like Hogwarts, if these two schools come, I will definitely look forward to it!"

Tom: ...

Then you may be disappointed.

Seeing that Tom hadn't replied to the letter for a long time, Fox on the side let out a cry of dissatisfaction, which made Tom concentrate on replying to the email.

The rules of the Triwizard Tournament are not complicated. Each of the three participating schools will select a warrior, and the three warriors will compete in three magic items. They will be graded according to the quality of each item they complete. The one with the highest overall score of the three items Warriors win. They will test the warrior's magical talent, courage, reasoning ability and ability to overcome danger from all aspects.

Dumbledore's conception of the Triwizard Tournament project is actually not much different from the original world line project. The first item is the fire dragon, and the warriors must try their best to get a golden egg from the fire dragon, and there is a hint of the second item in the egg. The second project takes place in the Black Lake at Hogwarts, where the warriors fish out the person they hold dear from the bottom of the Black Lake. As for the third project, it’s still a maze, but this time there are some guardian levels of the Sorcerer’s Stone in the maze—potion puzzles, moving stone sculptures and the like.

From Tom's point of view, there seems to be no major problem, but the participation of the audience is too low!

The first event was okay, the audience could at least watch the whole thing - in fact, it wasn't all that bad, the audience couldn't see anything after Harry flew off the field on the broom. The second and third projects are even more outrageous: one is underwater and one is in a maze. Can the audience really see the game? !

Do you want everyone to stay outside the castle for two hours? Then Tom would rather have a barbecue in the lounge by the fireplace.

These projects must be greatly changed! Obviously it was Party B, but Tom showed the momentum of Party A. He decided to take the initiative to modify the plan.

Tom sucked the quill pen and thought for a moment~lightnovelpub.net~he got an idea. He moved the wizard chess board to the side, and began to write at his desk.

About half an hour later, Tom wrote three new projects. He sealed the parchment and handed it to Fox.

Fox: Pop!

The phoenix actually slapped him with its wings! It refused to accept the letter.

Tom:?

Try again, snap again.

Tom frowned, feeling that things were not simple. He thought for a while, and then suddenly realized: This bird is asking for a bribe!

He took out two pieces of basilisk jerky from his bag, and Fox swallowed them in one gulp. Satisfied, Fox took Tom's letter and flew away in a flutter.
