Hogwarts: The Cat Wizard of the Moving Castle.

Fool?!

Before Harry could think about it, he was plunged into darkness.

Invisibly, a feeling of falling came over me, and in the darkness, a ray of light appeared.

When he opened his eyes again, what came into view was a heavy, gray sky. A breeze carrying grass stems passed through his sight.

He suddenly turned over and looked around, only to find that he was now on a small mound of earth. In the distance, there was a dense forest.

Seems to be in the forest? Harry was a little confused, and then his eyes fell on something at his feet.

That's the only thing besides yourself that shouldn't be in the wild.

The cards are made of metal, and the back of the cards has intricate patterns, just like the stained glass windows in a church, with different areas divided by straight lines and supplemented by pictures made up of different colors.

The picture shows a person holding a scepter, standing on the edge of a cliff, looking upward and taking steps forward.

【The Fool】

"Major Arcana, Number Zero, The Fool."

He recognized this card. Although he had only taken a few divination classes at Hogwarts, he had already learned the basics of divination before he came to Hogwarts, and occasionally used the crystal pendant for divination.

Just at this moment, in the sky, wind and clouds surged and lightning flashed.

A majestic and huge voice seemed to echo throughout the entire world.

"First event: Elimination Tournament - Fool's Journey."

"Except for No. 0 [The Fool], the rest of the tarot cards are scattered around the arena.

"Eligibility rules: Get a unique Major Arcana card, then take it to Rubeus Hagrid's Hut and leave the current world."

"There are fifty-six Minor Arcana cards in total, which can be transformed into aids for the warriors in this competition."

"In this competition, we don't care about the process, we only care about the result."

Harry looked around and processed the news. Since there was Hagrid's hut, this must be the Forbidden Forest.

At the same time, he also remembered that when the warriors from Beauxbatons and Durmstrang first arrived here, the professor took them to visit the entire school.

Then Hogwarts is also within the scope of the competition.

The rules mention "this world". In other words, this is a small world that is a one-to-one replica of Hogwarts?

Isn't this a bit exaggerated? !

Just as I was thinking about it, Mu En's voice continued from high in the sky.

“In order to help some warriors obtain a more direct path to victory, five special ways to obtain the Major Arcana cards are now provided.”

[Queen——Fifteen warriors received tarot cards because of your command and guidance]

[The Emperor will personally eliminate fifteen warriors. Elimination criteria: surrender, death in the arena. Please note: death in the arena does not mean real death. Warriors, please participate in the fight with the determination to die.]

[Pope - Fifteen warriors have voluntarily surrendered and withdrawn from the competition because of your advice.]

[Moderation - Survive five violent encounters without using any props.]

[World - Break through the fire dragon's defense, enter the exhibition hall, and conduct a preliminary analysis of the world's core.]

Harry listened to these five rules carefully, and the corners of his mouth twitched.

Pope card. Persuade fifteen people to withdraw from the game voluntarily.

Is it really possible?

On the contrary, emperor and moderation suit him better.

There is one last world, breaking through the fire dragon's defense.

Just as he was thinking about it, a deafening roar came from above the high school.

A gigantic fire dragon suddenly descended from the thick clouds, roaring and declaring its power to the world.

"Not Norbert!" Harry's eyes narrowed, and he habitually wanted to adjust his glasses to observe the dragon.

However - there was no response!

"When?" Harry was stunned for a moment, then he reacted and realized that the alchemy array had been blocked.

But when did Uncle Mu En block the alchemical array on his glasses?

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but slightly activate the alchemy array on his body.

A burning sensation came from his left hand.

It seems that the alchemical array on his body was not shielded, and all the power outside of himself was eliminated.

At the same time, the fire dragon in the sky seemed to have finished its demonstration and flew away into the distance.

Everyone's eyes are focused on it, and it also points out the route for all warriors to obtain the [World].

Harry retracted his gaze and picked up the card again, and noticed a triangular arrow on the card.

"This is?"

He turned around, and sure enough, the arrow on the card began to move as well.

"Maps are used to indicate directions, but they indicate nothing."

"Will there be other targets later? For example, if someone gets too close to me, will they be shown on the map?"

Obviously, this Fool card will be useful later.

He put the cards away and began to explore his surroundings.

Soon, he found the tallest tree around and began to climb upwards. In the blink of an eye, he reached a high place and his sight passed over the low treetops.

I also saw Hogwarts Castle standing in the distance.

In the distance, heavy clouds covered the castle. Suddenly, a bolt of lightning struck the top of the tall tower. Three or two seconds later, thunder exploded beside his ears.

Instead, it looks like the evil castle in the story.

"It looks like something is wrong inside the castle."

His mind began to spin, analyzing the message in the tarot cards.

XVI, number sixteen, tower.

Card: Lightning strikes the tower, and people fall from the tower

"If that's the way you look at it, then there's a card on the tallest tower in Hogwarts?"

"That's the principal's office?!"

Thinking of this, Harry jumped down from the towering tree and walked towards the castle.

As an iconic building, it is obviously a safe choice to walk towards that direction.

After walking more than ten meters, a strange thing suddenly appeared in front of his eyes.

"This is."

At this moment, what appeared before his eyes was a brass two-finger ring.

Outside the arena.

At this moment, in the center of the duel arena, there were no overwhelming dark clouds like in the arena.

The ninety warriors who had gathered here before had long since disappeared, and in their place was a huge Hogwarts sandbox, which, except for the absence of Hogsmeade, included all the surrounding terrain and buildings, including the Black Lake, the Expo Hall, the castle, and the Forbidden Forest.

And on the sand table, dark shadows were moving around - they were the warriors of the Triwizard Tournament.

In other words, as long as you use some small props like telescopes, you can use this sand table to roughly observe the movements of the warriors you are following.

Rather than just watching someone's broadcast.

"This way no one will scold the director, right?" Mu En thought.

At this moment, at the top of the duel arena, the picture of Harry was being played on the square screen that most of the audience was paying attention to.

"As we have seen, Harry Potter found a wild wand, and in fact, there were many such wands, potions and other items scattered throughout the arena.

They may not be that powerful and useful, but finding the wand at this stage obviously puts you ahead of many warriors."

As he was explaining, the scene in front of Jordan suddenly changed.

"Oh, next let's focus our attention on another place, the edge of the Forbidden Forest. Perhaps we can see the first conflict of this competition there!"

On the screen in the center of the stadium, the picture shifted to the edge of the forbidden forest mentioned by Jordan after a two-second delay.

At the edge of the Forbidden Forest, Draco stood quietly, tapping his fingers lightly on his chin.

“There are no rules at all.”

Just as I was thinking about it, footsteps were heard, and a figure in red clothes appeared not far away in the dense forest.

"Damn it." He suddenly quickened his pace and hid behind a tree.

However, he was still one step late.

"Come out!" the man from Beauxbatons roared, "I'll give you three seconds."

After Mu En's adjustments, real-time language translation can be achieved throughout the entire stadium.

"Tsk." Draco shook his head and emerged from behind the tree.

He was still confident in his ability to escape, considering that no one had a wand. What the hell was that?

At this moment, the Durmstrang student standing in front of him was holding a lizard shaft? !

The dried lizard had completely turned into a long strip, dry and hard. The man opposite was holding the tail of the dried lizard, facing him.

"Are you kidding?" Draco stared at him.

"You ignorant fellow." The man grinned, "This is the magic wand."

As he said this, he aimed at Draco and swung the lizard stem fiercely: "Petrify all—"

"Damn it!" When Draco saw the flash of lightning, he realized something was wrong and dodged to the side.

Is it really a magic wand?!

Although the speed of this spell lightning is not fast, its power is much smaller than normal.

But a curse is a curse, and he has no ability to fight against it now.

"Wait!" Draco quickly turned over and stood up, spreading his hands forward: "I can give you information about the cards!"

"Cards?" The man from Durmstrang stopped chanting a spell.

"Yes, the Tarot cards, I saw them." Draco said, "Let me go and I'll give you the news."

The man raised the corner of his mouth, thought for a moment, and nodded with satisfaction.

"it is good."

Draco stared into his pupils, took small steps back, and spoke slowly.

"It's a big card, I don't know what number it is, it's on the antler of a deer. It's running towards my three o'clock position. If you want it, you have to hurry, otherwise it may be taken by someone else."

The man looked at Draco, nodded after a moment, put away the dried lizard, and waved his hand as if to drive away a wild dog.

"get out."

Draco breathed a sigh of relief and quickly stepped back.

How the hell does he know where the damn cards are? He's just making it up.

If this guy really finds a card in the direction I gave, maybe I can complete one-fifteenth of the Queen's mission.

Also, does this count as completing one-fifth of the "Moderation" mission? Surviving five violent encounters without using any items counts as one.

And that lizard.

"Everything exploded—"

"Damn it!"

Draco dodged the attack by leaping to the side.

"Why are you attacking me again?"

"Because I also want to complete the mission of [Emperor] while I'm here." The man grinned: "Perhaps, the name of this mission is [Tyrant]?"

"I'm sorry, but please be one-fifteenth of me."

As he spoke, a series of spells began to be cast towards Draco.

“Damn it, damn it!” He kept running and jumping, and suddenly jumped behind a tree: “Thunder explosion——”

The next moment, Draco felt a violent explosion on his back.

"Damn."

He suddenly fell to the ground, feeling his internal organs churning.

"That is?"

In a daze, he saw a silver card appear in the tree hole in front of him.

【03 Scepter】

"Just surrender yourself." The man walked slowly, speaking briskly, "I have never killed anyone before. Although I know you won't really die, I still can't bring myself to do it."

Then he saw the little Hogwarts dwarf in front of him staggering to his feet.

"Perhaps it's best for you to lie down and give up resistance?" The man chuckled and waved the lizard shaft again.

"Thunderbolt explosion——"

Lightning shot out from the lizard's mouth, but the next moment, a black curtain suddenly blocked it.

"You had a lot of fun fighting just now, didn't you?"

As he spoke, Draco's figure began to rise gradually, and the robes on his body began to split downwards, three of them stuck into the soil, and the rest were scattered around, waving wildly.

"Do you know that there is a saying that goes - the goddess of luck is with Malfoy."

As he spoke, he placed his hand gently on his chest.

And what he held in his hand was a magic wand!

Outside the court, Jordan's roar resounded throughout the arena.

“The first person to hold the Wand Card appeared, and it was Draco Malfoy, the champion from Hogwarts.

Fourteen Wands cards mean that in the entire game, there can only be fourteen warriors at the same time, holding their own perfect wands! ! "

At the same time, he no longer kept the audience in suspense, but quickly introduced the unique features of the other three Minor Arcana cards.

Holy Grail: Potions, ranging from the most common all-purpose wound medicines such as Dittany and Bezoar to the most advanced potions such as Felicis.

Sword: A powerful spell.

Star Coins: Get a hint about the Major Arcana.

The four cards will not be consumed, but are limited to one use per person.

That is to say, if during a battle, one side seizes the cards owned by the other side, it can use the power of these cards again.

The battle on Draco's side was extremely fast. After two confrontations, in the blink of an eye, Draco used a long snake of his robe to bite the guy, and then the robe changed, directly tied him up and lifted him up.

"I'm different from you." Draco said, "I haven't killed anyone either. But I feel like I'll have to do this one day sooner or later. If I can, maybe this is the right time to try."

Thinking of this, he controlled the robe and suddenly strangled the other person.

After a moment, the man began to turn into stars before his eyes.

Only when the man completely disappeared did Draco fall to the ground again, his face pale.

Although it was very subtle, he clearly heard the click on the other person's neck, as well as the red face and bloodshot eyes.

"Really. I don't feel any discomfort at all."

Draco took deep breaths to control his trembling hands.

Sure enough, the previous combat experiences and actually killing a person were completely different feelings.

Moreover, this time it was a 'fake killing' in this damn competition.

I don't know what will happen if one day I really kill someone.

As I was thinking, suddenly, an inexplicably familiar voice appeared in my ears.

"sizzle"

Is that a snake?

On your own head!

He looked up suddenly, but saw that there was no trace of a snake around him.

However, the location where the sound is coming from is changing.

"sizzle"

No, that's not right, no snake will behave like this all the time.

As he was thinking, he looked through the gap between the treetops and saw a crow flying over his head.

It was at this time that the sound was farthest away from him.

Bird, imitating the sound of a snake?

And, after this sound, a green snake suddenly appeared not far from his feet, staring at him fiercely.

"Hey Scarhead"

A bead of sweat fell on Draco's forehead.

Snakes are definitely one of the most secretive and dangerous predators in the world.

"You won't let these guys launch indiscriminate attacks, will you?"
