Connor's Hogwarts

Chapter 251 When the monster card game is in progress

September to October is special for Hogwarts students, because there are no school-level activities during these two months.

In fact, there are not many school-level activities at Hogwarts. Normally, apart from Quidditch competitions and various festival school banquets, students can only rely on club activities to pass the time.

After all, the duty of a student is to study. As a magic school, Hogwarts is a place for learning. Of course, too many entertainment activities cannot be held.

But this year, this fine style of study was broken by an evil society.

"Pokemon Card Battle Finals Preliminary Tournament! It's in full swing!"

After the first round of auditions, each grade has selected its top eight players, and a total of 56 contestants from seven grades have advanced to the preliminary round.

In the first week of October, the top fourteen of the school will be selected from these 56 students, and now, the preliminary round is in full swing!
September NO.30, Monday.

What's going on right now is the quarterfinals competition for the first grade. The time is after dinner time, and the venue is the castle auditorium.

To conduct an open card duel competition, a professional team is naturally needed to maintain the competition, but the organizer of the monster card duel competition is still a "mystery" (although everyone knows that Connor did it, but there is no evidence), and None of the students claim to be the organizer of the competition, and they are maintaining the competition...others...

"Number one! Never act on your own will!"

"Second! Never miss a single bad thing!"

"Third! The referee is absolutely fair and beautiful! The referee robot Captain Dragonfly! Join!"

Four strange dolls in four colors of red, blue, yellow and green, plus an original dragonfly captain with normal colors came to the school auditorium. Five strange "robots" that looked the same except for the colors surprised the little wizards.

"What is this?! Is someone hiding in this iron shell?"

"I don't know, but it doesn't look like it. Is this a magic puppet?"

"You don't care what that is, of course it's important to watch the game now!"

There weren't many people in the auditorium, because today was only a competition for first-year young wizards, and most of the people who came were first- and second-year young wizards. Most of the seniors looked down on this kind of "low-end game".

The original Captain Dragonfly is today's host. He just finished his handsome opening speech with a dragonfly microphone, and now he is introducing the situation of tonight's game.

"One person guards the ring, one person attacks the ring! It is hosted by the captain of the red dragonfly, and it is the Gryffindor ring! The ring guard: Parvati Patil! The challenger is Padma Patty from Ravenclaw Er! This is a duel between sisters, and this match must be very exciting!"

"Presided over by Captain Green Dragonfly, it's the Slytherin ring! Ring guard: Draco Malfoy! The challenger is Ron Weasley from Gryffindor! Oh! The burning passion in the boy's eyes seems to be Set me on fire! This game is really exciting!"

"..." The little wizards were made uncomfortable by such a second-school robot, but many of them felt that something in their bodies was about to awaken.

There are also two groups of matchups:
Eden Lake (S) VS Hannah Abbott (H)

Justin Finch (H) vs William Stark (R)

In the first round of the competition, four of these eight people will be decided. In the preliminary stage, the members of the academy will not compete, and then the four will face off again. In the end, the two winners will advance to the top fourteen.

"Malfoy! Stop my title of King of Ferret Mountain! I, Ron Weasley, will definitely knock you down here today!"

"Hahahaha! Is it up to you? Weasley's family? You probably haven't even seen a few gold cards!" Malfoy sneered, and he turned over the cards in his hand, shining brightly Jin Guangguang blinded everyone: "Did you see my deck? All gold and no silver! Tell me how to lose! Hahahahaha!"

Ron's eyes are full of firmness. Since he was a child, he has used a bronze medal to fight back against the wealthy twins. His strength is in leapfrog killing!A mere Malfoy, let labor and capital suffer! , Ron roared: "Come to fight! I'm not afraid of you!"

The monster card matchup in the first grade, full of the atmosphere of the second grade, is starting hotly!
However, what most of the little wizards don't know is that their games are being broadcast live around the world.
In September, Laike Chess took a big step forward in its global dominance strategy—a total of 28 newly opened Laike Chess stores in Europe and along the Mediterranean coast officially opened for business!

This also means that Lake arcade rooms are blooming everywhere, as well as the official operation of Lake-Transnational Floo Network System.

This incident can be regarded as a small earthquake in the magic world, affecting the lives of many people, and even changing the worldview of many wizards.

The world is so big, but many people are unwilling to believe that the world is so big. Now, he has opened the window to see the world in front of this group of wizards. Connor doesn't know what the consequences will be, and he doesn't care.

The current main task of the Lake family is to vigorously promote the [Monster Cup].

All Lake experience store branches have been promoting the Pokemon Cup competition to be held next year since they opened. This will be a global competition, and you can sign up for the competition without any conditions!
As long as you are a member of the wizarding world, whether you are a squib, a goblin, or some magical animal, as long as you can play monster cards, you can go to the nearest Lake experience store to sign up for the competition.

The Lake family also provided generous rewards for winning the competition. For example, the overall champion who wins the Monster Cup will get 2333 Galleons, and the regional champion of the experience store will get 233 Galleons... and so on...

The generous rewards have attracted the attention of many wizards, and even many wizards who don't care about the world have turned their attention to the little monster cards.

At this time, in the lobby and arcade hall on the first floor of all Lake chess and card experience stores, there is a screen broadcasting the Hogwarts first-year monster card showdown in real time. This is a real, live broadcast on the entire network.

Although there are only chessboards and no players on the camera, wizards from all over the world are still curious about this form of "broadcast".

"Is this the format of the monster card game? It's interesting."

"But the game that's being televised is really not interesting."

"It's just a competition for first-year students, don't ask too much."

"You can still watch the sixth and seventh grade competitions on weekends. Now emmm can be regarded as a pastime."

"Don't worry, look at that chessboard, it's very interesting, yes, it's the one with gold cards on one side"

Bored wizards drank wine, ate snacks, and watched the live broadcast in the store. They were very happy. After this wave, Lake Experience Store gained another batch of loyal customers.

Half an hour later, the first round ended, and another half an hour later, the second round ended, and the winners were Ron and Ivan.

Then the third round will start, and the victor will get 2 game points.

Connor set up a very magical competition system, because 3 and 7 are very beautiful and mysterious numbers, and the competition system also revolves around these two numbers.

Three rounds of competitions are held every night, seven days a week. After the top fourteen are determined, on Monday next week, the two first-grade contestants will become the challengers, and the other six grades will send a contestant to challenge. There will be three battles between the hosts and the score calculation: the winner gets 2 points, the tie gets 1 point each, the loser gets 0 points, and on Tuesday it will be the turn of the second graders to defend the ring, and so on
Then in the end, every player in the top fourteen will have to fight 3 games, 3 games, plus 1 match against the same level, a total of 7 games.

In the end, the 7 players with the highest points will advance again. After the top seven, three battles will be held every day, and then the point system will be implemented. The person with the higher points won will get more points. After two weeks, the three with the highest total points will advance to the final stage. finals.
This game system can well mobilize the audience's sense of anticipation for the game. After all, the game with suspense is more fascinating. No one knows who the champion is until the end. The British, no, human beings, like gambling the most.
Connor is not interested in the result of the game, he only cares about how many Galleons he can earn in the future
"The monster card competition is really fun!" said Ron, who finally defeated Eden and ascended the throne on the first day of the competition.
