I'm a priest at Hogwarts

Orlando didn't speak, just looked up at the sky, and another moment passed.

Over the Forbidden Forest, a huge object, much larger than a broomstick, or a hundred broomsticks, was rapidly passing through the dark blue sky, flying towards the castle, gradually getting bigger and bigger. .

"Ah, if I'm not mistaken, the Beauxbatons representative has arrived!"

Without Dumbledore's reminder, Orlando, who has "Eagle Eyes", had already discovered this flying behemoth.This is a huge pink-blue carriage, it is as big as a house, and it is pulled into the sky by twelve golden horses with wings. They are all silver-maned horses, and each horse is about the same size as an elephant. .

The giant carriage passed over the treetops of the Forbidden Forest, flying lower and lower, landing at an extremely fast speed.

Orlando, who sensed something was wrong, deployed a dozen thunder shields in front of him without thinking. His wandless speed of casting spells stunned Dumbledore, who was standing by him, and didn't react for a long time.

There was an earth-shaking loud noise, which made the students scream. They saw those horse hooves hitting the ground with a thud, each one as big as a vegetable plate.In the blink of an eye, the carriage also landed on the ground. The huge body continued to slide forward under the action of inertia, heading straight to meet the team.Twelve golden silver-maned horses straightened their front hooves and tried to stop the car, but they still hit the thunder shield and stopped.

Fortunately, there was a distance of buffer, and these silver-maned horses were not injured, but the sudden impact made them a little dizzy.They shook their huge heads, and their big fiery red eyes rolled around, as if they didn't understand how the people in front of them stopped them.

"It's really amazing magic, Orlando. I have to say you always amaze people every time you do it!"

"You flatter me, Professor."

At this moment the carriage stopped, and Orlando noticed that there was a coat of arms printed on the door - two golden crossed wands, with three stars emerging from each.

Just as he was wondering what this coat of arms meant, the door opened, and a boy wearing a light blue robe jumped out of the carriage, bent down, groped for something on the floor of the carriage, and then opened a golden spiral staircase.

He jumped back respectfully, and then a shiny black high-heeled shoe was stretched out of the carriage-the shoe was as big as a child's sleigh-and a woman appeared behind him, very large. , twice that of normal people.

"Dear Madame Maxime," he said, "welcome to Hogwarts."

"Dumbledore," Madame Maxime said in a low voice, "I hope you are well."

"Very well, thank you," said Dumbledore.

"Your student?" Looking at Orlando, who was wearing the Wizengamot youth representative dress, Mrs. Maxim asked slightly moved.

"Yes, Orlando Bloom, maybe you've heard his name."

"Oh my God! I know that he, Thunder Star, is the youngest youth representative of the Wizengamot, and is known as the No. 1 Orlando of the younger generation, right?"

"Thank you, ma'am. It's an honor to meet you." Orlando imitated Dumbledore and gave her a kiss on the hand.

"What a terrible life! These are my students." Madame Maxime said, waving carelessly behind her with a huge hand.

Her huge body blocked Orlando's sight, and it wasn't until she turned sideways that Orlando noticed that about a dozen or so male and female students had gotten off the carriage and were standing behind Madame Maxime.

Judging from their appearance, they were all around eighteen or nineteen years old, and their bodies were all trembling slightly.This is not surprising, after all, they came from a hot place, wearing only thin and delicate silk dresses, and no one wore a cloak.

They came over, and everyone stared at Orlando curiously. The boy in front of them had just instantly sent out more than a dozen thunder shields to block the carriage. They could see clearly in the carriage.A few bold girls smiled and nodded at Orlando, but they were ignored by him. He was a principled man, and his girlfriend was watching from the team behind him.

"Is Karkaroff here?" Madame Maxime asked.

"He will be here any minute," said Dumbledore. "Would you rather wait here to greet him, or would you rather go in first and warm yourself up?"

"It's better to warm up," said Madame Maxime, "but my horses——"

"Our Care of Magical Creatures teacher will be more than happy to take care of them," said Dumbledore. "He'll be back after a little mess, and there's something wrong with something else in his - well - he's got to look after it."

Orlando covered his mouth and snickered.

"My horses require - well - strength to look after them," said Madam Maxime, seeming to doubt whether the Care of Magical Creatures teacher at Hogwarts was up to the job. "They have very fiery tempers. …..”

"I assure you, Hagrid is fully qualified for this job." Dumbledore said with a smile.

"Very well," said Madame Maxime, bowing slightly, "can you tell this Hagrid that these horses only drink single malt whiskey?"

"I'll take care of it," said Dumbledore, also bowing.

Orlando stepped back out of the way and stood at the front of the Gryffindor line.

"Come," Madame Maxime said solemnly to her students.So the Hogwarts crowd stepped aside to allow her and her students to walk up the stone steps.

"How big do you think Durmstrang's horse will be?" Seamus Finnigan leaned over and asked in Orlando's ear.

"I don't know, I hope it's not too high." Orlando shrugged. He didn't want to be a human shield.

At this moment, Harry stretched his neck and looked over Seamus' head and said: "Ah, if they are bigger than these horses, I'm afraid even Hagrid can't handle them. I mean if he doesn't get bitten by those blast-ended skrewts. No. Do you know what happened to them?"

"Probably ran away," Ron said hopefully.

"Oh, don't say that," Hermione shuddered and said, "Just think about it, these guys are crawling around on the field..."

Orlando was already impatient to wait, and Dumbledore didn't ask him to come over anyway, so he just chatted among the crowd.

In early winter, there is a large temperature difference between day and night in the British Isles. After nightfall, the temperature plummets. Many students are already shivering slightly from the cold.

Seeing that Hermione was a little cold, Orlando was about to take off his coat and put it on her, but she stopped him.In front of so many people, she was too thin-skinned to accept it.Besides, Orlando is the student representative today, so he can't be allowed to wear a shirt to welcome distinguished guests.

Most people looked up at the sky longingly.There was silence all around for a moment, except for the snorting and stamping of Madame Maxime's giant horse.Just then a loud, strange sound drifted toward them from the darkness: a muffled rumbling and sucking sound, like a giant vacuum cleaner moving along the river bed.

Orlando took a closer look, and saw huge splashes on the calm black lake surface, and waves crashing on the wet lake shore.Then, right in the center of the lake, a large whirlpool appeared, as if a huge plug was suddenly pulled out from the bottom of the lake.A long black pole-like thing slowly rose from the whirlpool, followed by the sails, rigging, and finally the entire hull.

The big ship sailed quickly towards the lake shore. At Dumbledore's signal, Orlando walked over and stood side by side with him.

A moment later, there was a "plop" sound, and an iron anchor was thrown into the shallow water, and then there was another "plop" sound, and a wooden plank was put on the lake shore.

This is a large ship with extraordinary majesty and shining in the moonlight. It has a simple shape and is slightly outdated.It was immediately obvious that it was an alchemical product, and it gave people an ancient feeling, like the remains of a sunken ship that had just been salvaged. The portholes shone with a dim, foggy light, making them look like the eyes of a ghost.
