The Strongest Badger at Hogwarts
Chapter 77: Year-end dinner
"Have you heard? Harry and the others went to the hallway on the fourth floor to the right last night, the one where Dumbledore said he would be seriously injured and killed!"
"Huh? Then aren't they..."
"That's not true, they are still alive now. But it is said that there is a treasure hidden in the innermost room of the corridor! Harry and the others went in to stop the dark wizard from stealing that thing!"
"Then did he succeed?"
"Of course! He is the savior! I heard the youngest son of the Weasley family say that they beat the black wizard into flying ash!"
……
Listening to the discussion of the surrounding students, Link's face was very strange.
He couldn't think that Dumbledore was so obsessed with his plan.
Even if the big villain Quirrell in the original plot is dead, he has to force another ‘Black Wizard’ so that Harry and the others can smoothly carry out the ‘Boys and Girls Rush Forward’ show.
shook his head speechlessly, and Link walked into the auditorium with the group.
The auditorium at this moment has changed from the usual simplicity to the magnificent appearance.
There are countless candles floating in the air, reflecting the transparent magic ceiling above the auditorium, beautifully.
Of course, the most eye-catching thing is the massive blue Ravenclaw flags in the auditorium. Together, they almost turn the auditorium into a blue ocean.
This is a reward for the final winner of the Academy Cup.
Ravenclaw Academy relied on its own excellent strength, in the case of Gryffindor and Slytherin attacking each other and losing each other, directly at the end of the semester, a wave of overtakes took the first place in the academy points.
The second place is Hufflepuff. Thanks to Cedric's hard work, the Quidditch champion can add a lot of points to Hufflepuff.
Slytherin and Gryffindor are ranked third and fourth respectively.
The Hufflepuffs were very happy about this. Although they did not win the Academy Cup, they finally did not have to finish.
This is enough to satisfy all Hufflepuffs.
To be honest, although the Slytherin Academy has been taken away from the Academy Cup, which they have won for 6 consecutive years, they are still in a good state.
After all, there is Gryffindor at the bottom of them.
It is Gryffindor that is really uncomfortable.
This group of proud lions not only lost to the poisonous snakes and eagles, but also to the little badgers, which they could not accept anyway.
As for Ravenclaw.
Then needless to say.
At this moment, they all jumped on the table excitedly and danced.
Just looking at their excited appearance, Link sighed.
because he knows it very well.
Dumbledore would not sit back and watch Gryffindor bottom up like this.
Since his old man forced the plot to arrange for Harry and the others to explore, it is only natural to give Gryffindor extra points at the last moment as in the original book.
Shaking his head, Link sat down with Cedric and others.
At this moment, the originally lively auditorium suddenly fell into silence.
Link instinctively looked behind him, and saw Harry and Hermione, the three of them slowly coming from the hall.
They looked a little embarrassed, and Hermione was about to get to the ground in shame.
After they were seated, the entire auditorium returned to normal.
And then, Dumbledore also arrived.
He went straight to the podium from the back door of the auditorium, and watched the students below for a long time, until they were all quiet, then he said:
"Another year has passed. Before I can enjoy the food, I must trouble everyone to listen to an old man's cliché..."
On the podium, Dumbledore was talking endlessly.
Hufflepuffs around Link are all talking.
Because this is not Dumbledore's style, he has never been like this before.
Most of the other colleges have such scenes, only Ravenclaw listened to it with gusto.
This is normal, they are waiting for Dumbledore to announce that they are the champions of the Academy Cup!
Dumbledore did not let them wait too long. A few minutes later, Dumbledore cast his gaze on the Ravenclaw flags in the auditorium, and then smiled and said:
"Regarding the Academy Cup, Ravenclaw is currently ranked first with a high score of 493. But before we truly announce the winner, we still have a few things to take into account."
As soon as he said this, Ravenclaw's excited expression instantly froze.
and Dumbledore smiled at Harry and they said:
"Everyone knows it? Harry and his classmates last night protected the Philosopher's Stone that my best friend had deposited with me. And to reward them, I decided here, Ron Weasley, 50 points. Hermione Ge Ranger, 50 points. Harry Potter, 70 points. In the end, Neville Longbottom, your courage earned you 10 points!"
There was a strange silence in the auditorium.
Everyone sat on their seats as if they had been cast a petrification curse.
But soon, a deafening cheer rang from Gryffindor's long table.
Every Gryffindor cheered to their heart's content, and in the end, they even began to shout Harry Potter's name in unison.
Because, after Dumbledore gave so many extra points, Gryffindor's score has instantly changed from bottom to first!
"Then, I think the decoration here needs to be changed."
Dumbledore waved his finger with a smile, and then all the flags in the auditorium changed colors, and the giant eagle pattern on it was directly replaced by a lion.
Under the mutual reflection of those candlelights and flags~lightnovelpub.net~ the entire auditorium has become a sea of golden red.
"It's not fair!"
Many people are protesting loudly on the long table at Ravenclaw.
There are also many Slytherins who do the same thing. In dealing with Gryffindor, the snake and the eagle are very rare to stand together.
It's a pity that Dumbledore didn't seem to pay attention to them, so he announced the start of the dinner.
There was a huge amount of delicious food on the long table in front of everyone.
The Hufflepuffs beside Link immediately began to dry their meals with a smile.
For the little badgers, they hadn't counted on the Academy Cup or something from the beginning, and they had no interest in the disputes that occurred in the auditorium now.
Instead of getting involved in this mess, it's better to be a happy meal!
Link did not join the team of dry meals like his classmates. He stared at Dumbledore, who had slowly returned to the seat of faculty and staff, but he was quite moved.
He knew very well that Dumbledore did this to cultivate Harry's self-confidence and Harry's love for Hogwarts.
It’s just that this approach is also provoking contradictions between the various colleges.
Slytherin won't say anything, they were mortal enemies with Gryffindor from the beginning anyway.
But Ravenclaw is different.
Know that they were in a neutral position like Hufflepuff at first.
And in terms of real strength, they are no worse than Slytherin.
Is it really good to do this?
Link sighed heavily, and at this moment, Dumbledore in the faculty seat seemed to have noticed Link's gaze. He turned his head and smiled meaningfully at Link.
