The Rise of Malfoy at Hogwarts

v4 Chapter 18: Eventful night

   As the afternoon passed, a kind of excitement filled the camp like a cloud that could be touched.

   At dusk, even the quiet summer air seemed to be tremblingly looking forward to it.

When the night shrouded thousands of eagerly waiting wizards like a curtain, the last trace of disguise disappeared: the Ministry of Magic seemed to succumb to the inevitable trend, no longer opposing people, and letting those who apparently used magic. Signs popped up everywhere.

   Every few steps, phantom vendors descend from the sky, holding trays and pushing carts, which are full of strange things.

There are luminous rose-shaped badges-green for Ireland and red for Bulgaria-and they can scream out the names of the players; there are green high hats decorated with shamrocks dancing in the wind; there are Bulgarian ribbons, printed There are roaring lions; there are the national flags of the two countries, waving their respective national anthems; there are small models of firebolts that can really fly; there are statues of famous players for collection, and those small statues can walk around in the palm of your hand. Go, triumphantly.

   Schelling didn't buy anything, but Gareth, who had already returned to the camp, bought a panoramic telescope worth ten gallons for everyone. It can replay the game screen and quickly flash the analysis of the game.

   Ludovic Bagman came to visit the camp, the purpose is to collect bets for his own betting game, Gareth bet ten Kalong buy the Irish team to win.

   Schelling also wanted to place a bet, but he was afraid of being escaped by Bagman's money like the Wesley twins in the original book. So he deliberately pointed out Bagman's implausibility to Gareth. Although Bagman had an angry face, he didn't dare to play Xie Lin. Although Schelling was young, no one in the Ministry of Magic knew that there was someone behind him, otherwise how could Wesengama break the tradition and canonize him as the youngest Sir Merlin.

   After a heated discussion, Bagman agreed to make an unbreakable oath with him.

   Schelling bet Ireland to win with seven hundred gallons, but Victor Krum would catch the Golden Snitch. According to the pre-agreed 4 times odds, if he wins, he will get 2,800 gallons. Seven hundred gallons can be regarded as a big bet. If the bet is higher, it is estimated that Bagman will not be able to pay it. According to Schelling’s estimation, 2,800 gallons are almost close to Bagman’s four-month salary, and Taxes and daily expenses are not included...

   (Note: The salary of the striker is 700 gallons. As an important force of the Ministry of Magic, this salary should be similar to that of the lesser director-level figures in the Ministry, such as the Sports Department)

   At this time, there was a deep and deep gong sound from somewhere in the distance of the forest. Thousands of red, green and green lanterns bloomed on the trees, illuminating the road to the stadium, and the entrance to the stadium began.

   The process of the game is the same as that described in the original book, so I won’t mention it here.

After the game, Schelling saw Bagman's face pale, and it is estimated that he was not easy to lose. But because of his unbreakable oath, Bagman did not dare to fool Schelling with the dwarf gold coins. After all, those who violate the unbreakable oath will Death, of course, even if he dared to do this, the dwarf gold coin could not hide from Schelling's magical eye.

   Back to the camp, Gareth was about to ask them to go back to the house and rest, and go back to the manor the next morning.

Xie Lin said: "Don't rush back to the room," he looked at a few people, took out a few bottles of magic recovery potions and invigorating potions from his luggage, and then slowly said: "Everyone, according to my information, maybe not tonight. It will be calm-I suggest that everyone stay in the hall. We can chat to pass the time. If anyone is really too sleepy, try the boosting potion I personally prepared. It is absolutely effective. Uncle Gareth, Mr. Morgarten, As men, we are more responsible for protecting the safety of women. I think we have to prepare magic wands and be vigilant and awake at all times. What do you think?"

   Gareth, as the lord of the clan, is also the person who raised eyebrows, and immediately understood, "Xie Lin, what you said would not be..."

  "That is to say, some unwilling lonely clowns, who are so idle that they come out to brush their sense of existence-rest assured, as long as we are cautious enough, nothing will happen, and it is estimated that their goal will not be us.

Gareth cast a meaningful look at Schelling, "I really can’t see you more and more. The bet with Ludo this morning, my instinct tells me that you are sure of winning, and now you seem to know some even I have not been able to confirm."

"Uncle Gareth, I don't believe that you have no sound at all, you just couldn't confirm it-besides, as a member of the Malfoy family, my father has been busy every day and made a lot of noise. How could I not notice any abnormality?"

   A few people drank Schelling's invigorating potion, and they suddenly came to their spirits. Sitting on the sofa in the hall, they began to chat enthusiastically about the highlights of the game.

Schelling put on the robes of the supreme wizard, the cloak of the night star, the crown of Ravenclaw, the duel gloves, checked the dagger and wand in the pocket, and stood at the entrance of the tent with vigor, looking into the distance People still cheering and singing.

   Slowly, the voice in the camp changed and the singing stopped. Xie Lin heard the sound of screams and the sound of people running in a panic. He turned his head and greeted several people in the tent. They were all fully armed and calmly followed Xie Lin out of the tent because they were mentally prepared.

As for the two house elves, they were ordered to stay at the camp to prevent someone from taking advantage of the fire. At the same time, the mobs recognized that this was a camp of a pure-blood family, because the house elves can only be owned by the ancient family, which is almost a status symbol. .

   Leaning on the flames of several bonfires that were still burning, Schelling saw people running towards the woods, as if escaping from something moving towards them on the camp. The thing gleamed weirdly and made a gun-like sound. The loud sneers, wild laughs, and drunken screams all moved towards them.

   Then, a bright green light flashed, illuminating everything around him.

   A group of wizards huddled together tightly. Everyone pointed their wand upwards, pushed forward together, and moved slowly across the field.

   Xie Lin squinted his eyes and looked carefully. These people have hoods on their heads and masks on their faces. Above them, four struggling figures floated in the air, twisted into various weird shapes, as if the masked wizards on the ground were puppet manipulators, and the few above them were marionettes. Controlled by the invisible rope rising from the wand into the air, two of them were very small, and that was the family of the camp manager Mr. Roberts.

   Several officials of the Ministry of Magic tried to rush to stop them, but the scattered attacks did not have an effective impact on the already huge group of masked wizards at this moment. Schelling even saw the red-haired Mr. Wesley and his three sons rushing to help.

   The colored lights that illuminate the way to the stadium have now been extinguished. There were some dark figures staggering in the woods, children were crying, and nervous shouts and voices echoed in the cold night sky around them.

   "Come with me, I know where it is safe!" Mr. Mogaton took the lead, leading everyone to the woods, looking for a safe location, avoiding these crazy villains.

   Not long after, someone in the middle of the forest shot a dark mark into the sky. Ministry officials hurried there, and the masked wizard group saw the dark mark and scattered, as if nothing had happened.

   Just when everyone thought the matter had subsided and they could safely return to the camp, a stun curse suddenly flashed, and Mr. Gareth was knocked out in an instant. Six masked men in black walked out of the hiding place and surrounded Schelling's group fiercely. It was obvious that the visitors were not good. Judging from the body shape, it can be seen that the other party is five men and one woman, and the figure of one man and one woman faintly gives Schelling a familiar feeling.

   At this time, the Ministry of Magic officials have all gone to the woods, and some fans of good deeds have also gathered in the woods to inquire about the news, and others have returned to the camp. There is no other person in this remote corner.

   Xie Lin and others drew out their wands to prepare for the battle, but Xie Lin did not have much confidence because of the safety of the three young ladies behind him. There is only Mogaton who understands Apparition. It is quite dangerous to change his shape while being surrounded by enemies. Besides, it is impossible for them to drop Gareth, who is unconscious, into the hands of these unidentified people. .

Schelling took the lead in breaking Shen Jing and said: "Do you have any misunderstandings? Every one of us is a pure-blood wizard, and you have no grievances with you. Your current behavior is to simultaneously complain to the Malfoy family and Greengrass. Does the family declare war?" Schelling wisely raised the flags of the two families, intending to scare the enemy back.

"Don't get me wrong, we are not in the same group as the Death Eaters who are so idle." A man in black said first: "Our purpose here is to invite Miss Shafik to follow us. One trip. If it's convenient for a few of you, we will owe a favor to the Malfoy family and the Greengrass family."

   According to Schelling’s magical eyes, the magical powers of the six people in front of them are full of violent black aura, very similar to the original petty dwarf Peter. He frowned, probably guessing the identity of this group in his heart.

  He slowly said, "Are you the shadow of the dragon?"

"You must be the famous Master Malfoy, right?" said the man in black. "Hey, you don't even know our organization. Then you should know the strength of our organization? If you want to fight us, even if it is The Malfoy family, I'm afraid we have to weigh it too!"

   It seems that Peter Pettigrew's goal was to help them capture Meredith. (Author: Has anyone guessed it?)

   But why is she? Shafik is just a declining ancient family. It is only a good idea to say that it is a pure-blooded family. In fact, she is the only one left in the whole family, and many of the Shafik family's properties have been divided among other families. The only valuables in the entire family are the dilapidated ancestral house and a house elf.

   Although Schelling thinks he is not a good person, his original intention of pursuing power is to protect the people around him. In any case, he can't let Meredith suffer any harm!

   But Schelling was unwilling to drag the entire Greengrass family into the water, let alone endanger the safety of the other two girls. After thinking about it, he had a plan in mind. "You can take her away, but there is one condition, I must follow."

   "Impossible! Boy, if you want to be a hero, you must first measure your own strength. Most babies like you will die young." The black-clothed man said coldly.

   "Boss, don't talk nonsense with them, be careful to attract others!" Another tall black man said in a deep voice.

The man in black who was the first to speak was obviously the person in charge of the operation. Whether he was in shape or in his voice, Schelling felt familiar~lightnovelpub.net~ It seems that he had never beaten this person before. Deal less.

   The opponent made a quick decision-the leader made a gesture, and the six were about to do it immediately!

   It is a pity that they seriously underestimated Schelling's strength.

   As soon as they came out, they attacked Gareth unconsciously first, and now the main defense is Mr. Mogaton. They had also heard of Schelling's name, but there was at least two levels of difference between a junior student and their adult wizard, so they didn't take it too seriously.

A strong light burst out of Xie Lin's body, like a human-shaped flash bomb-it is a flash curse. In this pitch-black environment, the effect of the flash curse is particularly powerful. Except for the three girls who had a tacit understanding, the others were all caught up for a while. The state of blindness who couldn't open his eyes, including Mogaton.

   "Damn it!" the leader hurriedly shouted. "First deal with that kid, he knows how to cast spells silently without a rod!"

   Although the opponent was blinded, he didn't slash his neck. Instead, he relied on his instinct to attack the direction of Schelling and others in his memory. The colorful spells flew in all directions for a while, but there was little accuracy.

   Schelling concentrated his mind and summoned Aquila with his mind. Aquila let out a scream, transformed into six clones, and grabbed the six masks with sharp claws.

At the same time when the mind was summoned, Xie Lin used his heart and three uses, his left hand wand cast a whirlwind curse, a tornado whirled up from the ground, and rolled two masked men into the sky. They roared and shot the curse all the way. , But it was of no use; Xie Lin's right hand made a flick, and the wand of the third masked man suddenly reached Xie Lin's hand and was folded in two.

  The form is reversed.

   Three of the six masked men lost their combat capability in just an instant.
