A certain Hogwarts rune professor

Chapter 400 Projection Technology

Harry, Ron, and Hermione stayed on through the game, begging, as Professor McGonagall kept urging them to go to the makeshift tent for medical treatment.

"I'm fine, Professor McGonagall." Harry said, at this time he took the essence of dill from Hermione, applied it on his wound, and the bleeding stopped quickly.

Professor McGonagall pursed his lips and stared at him for a long time. Taking advantage of this time, Harry hurriedly lowered his head and cast a healing spell for himself-this was one of the spells he had learned, and Professor Haip hinted at some of them. It will be used as the entrance standard for the new school year - he felt his wound itching, he couldn't help reaching out to touch it, Professor McGonagall's stern eyes looked over again, he had to put his hand down, Ron beside him laughed Voice.

"Okay, after the game, you guys...you're going to Madam Pomfrey's for an examination." Professor McGonagall said, she glanced at Ron and Hermione, except for the dirty and dusty body and face Yes, she doesn't look injured at all.

Harry made sure that Professor McGonagall left, when Harry found that his wound had tightened.

"I've never found such a useful spell," said Harry in amazement.

"Oh, this spell can only heal some small wounds. If you plan to become a healer in the future, you will find that there are too many things to learn." Hermione said, stuffing the vial of white essence into her pocket.

"Who wants to be a therapist?" muttered Ron, noticing Harry and Hermione were looking at him: "I mean, you have a lot of weird cases every day... I should have told you Well, Bill had a brazilian penpal at school who sent him a hexed hat because he couldn't pay for the trip... Anyway, his ears were more wrinkled than a house-elf, Mum had to take him to the hospital ... I was five or six, but St Mungo's made a huge impression on me."

He frowned, a disgusted look on his face.

"...a wizard with an extra arm on his chest, a witch who hopped and walked around as if he were a kangaroo—strange, there are no kangaroos in England! I remember one unlucky one whose chest was poked by some animal , the wound has been bleeding, and when the therapist cleaned him, the smell was so bad..."

Both Harry and Hermione felt a little uncomfortable.

When the game was over, Professor McGonagall looked over with a majestic gaze. Before the three of them could react, she appeared next to them as if she had used apparition, and they immediately walked to the temporary tent in a safe manner.

"Potter," Harry turned his head, and heard Professor McGonagall say to them, "And Weasley, Granger...you did a great job!" She pursed her lips and said in a surprisingly gentle voice: "Go to the tent, Madam Pomfrey is waiting for you... Maybe you can come back before the judges score."

When passing by the stands, the crowd enthusiastically shouted their names, and a huge arm hung from the platform. It was Hagrid, who said excitedly: "You have succeeded! Great, you are facing the most ferocious Hungarian Horntail -"

Harry, Ron and Hermione smiled and took turns high-fiving Hagrid. Ron said lightly on his feet, "Oh...it's actually not that difficult..."

At the temporary wooden gate, Sirius jumped up excitedly and hugged them.

"You guys are the best team I've ever seen!"

……

At the same time, a heated discussion was going on in the referee's seat on the high platform, and the seven judges exchanged opinions on the performance of the six teams.

"Is the Swedish Brachysaurus a bit too weak?" Karkaroff questioned.

"It's not—" Bagman retorted, "You saw it! Its flames melted the chains specially made by the dragon farm, and it is the strongest among several dragons... Felix, you are the security officer, stand You can see it most clearly from high places, tell me!"

He looked at Felix. As the last line of defense, although Felix did not have the power to score, he was also pulled over under the name of "providing details that others cannot see."

"Actually, except for the Hungarian Horntail, the other five Charmanders are pretty much the same," Felix scratched his chin, and said, "If you have to compare, the Swedish Short-nosed Dragon is relatively strong among them, at least its flame temperature is extremely high ...what I saw was that everyone on the team was doing a great job at what they were doing."

"Cedric Diggory's weather magic made the fire dragon irritable and irrational, which can be seen from the fact that it broke free from the shackles and chose to disperse the rain clouds instead of attacking the warriors... Roger · The timing of Davis’ launch is also very clever, his Disillusionment Spell is not outstanding, in order to avoid being discovered, he didn’t make any moves in the early stage, but his role in the team is very important—”

Felix smiled and said, "He belongs to the horn of saving the field and launching a general attack."

"If the fire dragon attacks Digory madly, Davis must stand up decisively to stop it, and the actual scene is also commendable. He urged the black thorn when the fire dragon just flew off the ground...excellent growth spell...As for Collins Foley, she doesn't move much, but you should be able to see her patience, courage and trust in her teammates throughout the game. She squatted at least under the feet of the Swedish Brachysaurus 2 minutes, if there is a slight accident in the middle, she may not be able to run out."

All the judges present were not lacking in vision, and Felix was just telling the truth.

They quickly finished their discussion and were about to score. Felix suddenly said: "The purpose of the competition is to select the best young wizards from different schools, let them compete on the same stage, participate in the training, and hope that they will be the best in the difficult task. Demonstrates the courage that wizards admire... Several judges, I suggest that each judge should comment a few words when giving a specific score, and let the warriors know their own strengths and weaknesses..."

The judges looked at each other.

"Will it be too late?" Bagman said a little blankly: "We didn't arrange this process... But, it's not impossible..."

"As the headmaster, I certainly hope to see the warriors gain something this year." Dumbledore said with a smile.

Fudge looked at the other judges with a hesitant expression: "What do you think?"

"This idea is very good." Mrs. Maxim said, she didn't think there was anything wrong with it, but welcomed it very much.

"I also agree with this proposal. Students in Ouagadu should know their own shortcomings, and they should not make the same mistake twice." The principal of Ouagadu, the skinny witch, said that she sat cross-legged on a flying carpet, like It's like stepping out of a comic book.

In fact, the British Ministry of Magic had banned the introduction and sale of flying carpets, but she was only using it for herself, and she was a foreigner, so Fudge pretended not to see it.

"Your speech is very wise, Ms. Nagy." Felix bowed slightly.

Several judges agreed one after another, and they sat back in the referee's seat, ready to score.Felix walked away from the dais and smiled at Karkaroff - he didn't look very happy.

"Ahem! Be quiet—" Bagman said loudly, and the crowd in the stands gradually fell silent, "Next is the judges' scoring. In order for the warriors to remember more than one score, each judge will give some pertinent comments. "

"But please allow me to review the whole game first. Many people may not have time to see the whole picture. After all, there are too many wonderful pictures, and the eyes can't keep up...I will describe the dragon eggs in the order in which they were obtained."

"The first team I'm going to say is the Braves from Hogwarts, Cedric Diggory, Roger Davies and Collins Foley, they picked up the dragon egg in the shortest time, and Defeated the fire dragon, and did not suffer any injuries;

The second team to get the egg was the Warriors of Waggadu. Nona Raibert used a wonderful cheetah transformation to bring the dragon egg out. Of course, their strategy was a bit aggressive, resulting in one team member being trapped by the fire dragon , The safety officer intervenes in the game, which may become a deduction item.Nevertheless, they also dedicated a wonderful game for us.

The third team that got the dragon egg was also from Hogwarts. They were the youngest and still in the fourth grade, but they performed very well. They were the only two teams that got the dragon egg and escaped from the fire dragon;
The fourth team to get the dragon egg was Durmstrang, although they only managed to grab some fragments;
The fifth team to get the dragon egg was Beauxbaton. Miss Delacour was so courageous that she threw the dragon egg to her teammates at the last moment, but she got into trouble and had to rely on the protection of the security guard;

The last team is Ilvermorny, well, although they didn't get the dragon egg, it's a matter of strategy, and their compound magic is still very eye-catching..."

Bagman briefly introduced the performances of the six teams, allowing the audience to revisit it in their minds, and they talked a lot.At this time, the warriors in the audience came back one after another. After waiting for a while, he said loudly: "Then, please judge the first team!"

Harry squinted his eyes and looked at the judging table. The first judge, Mrs. Maxime, raised her wand, and a long ribbon-like thing emerged from the tip of the wand, twisting to form a number "10".

Mrs. Maxim commented: "The Hogwarts group has fully demonstrated the qualities that warriors must possess—courage, wisdom, loyalty, and trust. In this one item alone, their performance is impeccable, and I give it [-] points. "

Her fair speech won her a round of applause.

"Maybe they will get full marks." Ron slapped his hands and said, the sixth judge still gave ten points, "I hope we won't be too far behind, logically speaking, our performance is not too bad, right? "

Harry nodded sharply, while watching the last of the judges, Karkaroff slowly raised his wand, the silver ribbon twisting to form the number "7".

Everyone on the field was a little absent-minded and couldn't believe their eyes.They were all ready to meet the first full-scoring team, but now it was all in vain. The number seven was so dazzling.

"Karkaroff..." On the high platform, Bagman looked at him hesitantly.

Karkaroff said in his characteristic smooth, oily voice: "You see courage, I see recklessness, they didn't need to stun the dragon, that would be potentially dangerous..."

But before he finished speaking, someone in the crowd shouted, "Nonsense!" Seamus shouted loudly, Karkaroff looked over with his cold gaze, but Seamus bravely looked at him and shouted loudly Said: "Everyone understands what's going on, it was the best choice at the time!"

A voice of approval echoed him.

"I stand by my opinion," Karkaroff said.

"Okay," Bagman snorted twice, "each judge has the right to score independently... Calculated in this way, the total score of the Hogwarts team is 67 points, temporarily ranking first, I believe It will be difficult for latecomers to catch up, but it's hard to say... let's continue..."

……

In the end, Harry and the others scored 61 points, ranking second—Ludo Bagman enthusiastically praised the youngest warriors and gave them full marks without hesitation.The Warriors of Ouagadu scored 53 points and ranked third; Durmstrang scored 50 points and ranked fourth; Beauxbaton scored 48 points and ranked fifth; Ilphmorny scored 23 points.

What is more controversial is the ranking of Durmstrang and Beauxbatons. No one expected that when the judges gave six and seven points, Karkaroff shamelessly raised ten points, causing an uproar .

You know, even though Bagman gave Harry [-] points for this group, it was still in a situation of [-] points. Although it was abrupt, it was not a big problem. It only showed that Bagman especially favored young and controversial warriors. However, what Karkaroff did was blatantly cheating.

After scoring, the warriors and judges regrouped in the makeshift tent to wait to receive information on the second project.Felix was about to leave, but Bagman stopped him enthusiastically, "Don't leave in a hurry, Felix, I have something to discuss with you..."

The sound of footsteps outside continued to pass by, and the discussion was endless. Harry sat aside, dazed in boredom—he escaped from under the dragon's feet, and he was lazy now.

"...that eccentric old mallet, he gave the warriors in his school ten, ten! Ha, don't you need to pay for the broken dragon egg?"

"If I were him, I would be too ashamed to see anyone!"

Intense conversation sounded outside, Harry raised his head, blinked twice, he recognized the two voices, Seamus Finnigan and Dean Thomas.He didn't know if his two roommates were trying to fight, because Karkaroff only gave their group a six.

In the tent, Karkaroff's face was blue, but he endured the strange eyes and remained silent.

Felix smacked his lips: "Although it's normal for the headmaster to favor his own warriors, it's rare to be 'preferred' to such an extent...Maybe the scoring rules should be made more transparent."

"We will seriously consider it." Bagman immediately said cooperatively.

Ten minutes later, the footsteps outside became sparse. The Minister of Magic, Cornelius Fudge, stood up and touched his stomach. The gemstone ring on his thick finger was polished and shiny.He said enthusiastically: "I would like to congratulate all the warriors and congratulate you on successfully passing the first test. I noticed that some teams did not perform well, but there are still opportunities later... I will introduce the second project. Batty is here, but he took a long vacation, probably because he was too tired, busy with two big projects in a row, I had to reject the meeting with the Austrian Minister of Magic..."

No one is interested in his boring work log, but he still talks for a full 10 minutes, from the weird mouth quirk of the Austrian Minister of Magic, to the cauldron and teapot of the president of the Extraordinary Apothecary Society-he seems to want to add a little bit to his speech. Jokes, but obviously powerless.

"Kingsley!" he shouted.

A tall, dark-skinned man came in from outside the tent, holding two golden eggs, one in each hand.

"The second project will be held on the morning of February 2 next year. Before that, you can take a good rest." Fudge said: "The golden egg in your hand is the clue to the second project, see the gap Can they be opened, you guys need to decipher the messages left behind, I'm honestly not sure if I'll be there when the second project is underway, maybe by then Barty's in shape, but I might come along for the ride , being with the best group of wizards in the world, I feel younger..."

With a wave of his hand, Kingsley flew the two golden eggs towards the champions of Durmstrang and Ilvermorny.

When Krum and Byers took the golden egg, both of them looked a little ashamed.Among the six teams, only they failed to protect the dragon eggs.

"Ludo, I'll leave the rest to you." Fudge said to Bagman, and he nodded towards everyone, "Sorry, there are too many things in the ministry, I'm leaving first."

When everyone else left, Ludo Bagman finally had time to communicate with Felix alone. He pulled a chair and sat next to Felix's armchair.

"There are two things related to you." He couldn't wait to say: "The first thing involves a unique magic of yours. I want to ask about its effect, and it may be used in the second project... The second It's about your Future World company."

Felix was stunned, and looked at him with searching eyes: "Have you looked for Remus? He is in charge of the company's affairs now."

"I've looked for it," Bagman said with a bit of embarrassment, "but he said he can't make the decision, so I can only beg you..."

"Do you want me to donate a sum of money?"

"Oh, no, of course not. I heard that Remus is organizing people to develop projection technology? You know, Batty is on leave, and now the burden is on me alone. In order to make the game better, I have to do something brave innovation. That’s part of courage, don’t you think?”

Felix thought quickly.

He knows about the projection technology, and he arranged it. Inspired by the panoramic telescope of the Quidditch World Cup, this gadget uses a very interesting magic that can temporarily store images.

Felix's request to the future world research team is to imitate the function of a TV and make something similar.He mentioned some concepts of signal towers and extensions, and he has a magic radio as a reference. The progress is not slow, but he hasn't had time to ask about the specific step.

"Don't rush to say no," Bagman couldn't help saying, seeing Felix lost in thought, "this would be an excellent advertisement, and the Ministry promised to pay a rent, of course...it's impossible to buy it, I have a limited budget."

"If it's a normal business transaction, I can't think of a reason for Remus' refusal." Felix said slowly.

"Ahem, he thinks I have a big mouth and keeps the progress of the research secret..." Bagman turned his head away in embarrassment.

"Okay, let me ask for you."

"The first thing...?" Bagman elaborated.

After thinking for a moment——

"I think this kind of game is interesting enough." Felix folded his arms and said with bright eyes.
