The Day of the Draw at Hogwarts

After Dumbledore announced the start of the game, three small balls floated in front of the three warriors.

These are three door keys that will randomly transport the warriors to a certain location in the Forbidden Forest.

The warriors must start with a magic wand and rely on picking up all the equipment to complete the recovery of the fragments. Every move they make will be broadcast on the three screens on the field. As for the guarantee previously promised by the Ministry of Magic, it was the special portkey in front of them. The warriors could return to the Quidditch field by touching the portkey. This kind of return will theoretically not deduct points, but it will indeed greatly interfere with the progress of the collection.

Under everyone's expectant eyes, the three of them grasped the door keys in front of them and disappeared. Simultaneous broadcasting also started on the big screen. Lee Jordan of Gryffindor House was pulled out, and this time he will serve as the commentator for the Triwizard Tournament. At the same time, Durmstrang and Beauxbatons also found a student each. The three of them stood in the commentary box, each with a microphone with an amplifying spell in front of them.

Cedric regained his footing. He was in the center of the arena just now, but now he was in a dense forest.

"Where is this..." Cedric was a little confused. He knew that he wanted to go near the Whomping Willow, but the prerequisite for going to a place is that you have to know how to get there!

Unfortunately, Cedric doesn't know how to get to the Whomping Willow. But as luck would have it, there was a spell that could help him.

"Show me the way!" Cedric took out his wand and cast a spell. The wand in his hand turned and pointed southeast.

The tip of the stick points to the direction of the Whomping Willow.

Just as Cedric was about to leave, he shrugged the tip of his nose: Why does it smell so bad?

Wait, this smell... Cedric's expression changed, and he vaguely thought of something.

At this moment, the woods behind him trembled, the smell in the air became stronger and more pungent, and then a tall figure appeared in Cedric's field of vision.

Tall body, gray-white skin, small head like a chocolate bean, and holding a huge wooden stick in his hand...

It's a troll! To be more precise, they are mountain monsters active in the forest.

Cedric felt his hair tingle for a while. The magician was most afraid of encountering such a thick-skinned guy at close range. The troll's skin is somewhat similar to a weakened version of the fire dragon skin, with a certain amount of magic resistance. It's really difficult for ordinary wizards to break through its defense. If it weren't for its slowness, the troll would definitely be a top wizard hunter. They met on a narrow road and directly taught the wizard how to be a human being, letting the wizard understand a truth: beyond seven steps, the wizard cannot defeat the troll, and within seven steps, the wizard not only cannot defeat it, but also cannot escape.

"Obstacles!" he yelled, cast a barrier spell, and ran away.

The troll roared angrily and tried to hunt the pretty boy in front of him, but was stopped by the obstacle spell for a few seconds. Cedric disappeared into the dense forest in the blink of an eye.

Cedric's encounter made the little wizards scream in surprise, especially when the troll appeared. Many people even felt that they could smell the stench of the troll.

"Come on, let's bet on who can find the first fragment and who will be teleported back first - do you want a fake wand?" Fred and George were not idle, like two bludgers. Weaving in and out of the crowd.

Compared with Cedric's "mountain" from the start, Fleur and Krum were luckier. Their "spawn point" didn't have any monsters, just an endless dense forest.

However, Fleur managed to provoke an Acromantula after passing through several bushes, and it took a lot of effort to defeat it - she was very lucky, this spider came out to look for food alone. If she had encountered a swarm of Acromantulas, she would have used the Portkey by now.

Fleur's fighting process did not attract the attention of other students. At this time, everyone was caught by the screen that broadcast Krum.

Compared to Cedric, who was playing hide-and-seek with the troll in the forest, Krum was very lucky. He didn't encounter any obstacles along the way. He even found a treasure chest from which he obtained a side armor with an attached armor. Cursed shield. With such smooth sailing, Krum finally came to the bottom of the Whomping Willow tree in a roundabout way.

If Cedric knew what happened to Klum, he would definitely shed tears of happiness: There are so many differences between people! Why don't I have such good luck?

But as honey to me and arsenic to him, Cedric's good fortune was pure misfortune to Krum.

This starts from dozens of minutes ago...

Professor Sprout placed Tom next to the Whomping Willow and left. She had other volunteers to arrange, and according to Dumbledore's instructions, she also had to lay a few traps along the way. So she missed the little surprise Tom had prepared.

After Professor Sprout left, Tom first opened the prop gift bag he received. He wanted to know what good things were stuffed in his gift bag.

He untied the gift bag and tipped it down. A roll of parchment, a glove and a small ball fell out.

The parchment was a map of the neighborhood, with several points marked on it. Tom estimated that it was the location of the alchemy tool or the magic ring fragment. The gloves are even more outrageous. They are curse-proof gloves made by myself...

It looked like Dumbledore had bought it from the Ministry of Magic.

As for the ball, it's even more interesting - it's a dung egg! After being thrown out, it will emit an amazing stench, successfully dissuading the pursuers.

It looks like Dumbledore is a loyal customer of Fred and George! Tom threw the powerful fecal egg aside and turned around to unpack the daily necessities.

There wasn't much inside, just a tent and a bunch of food.

"It looks delicious." Tom smelled the sandwich in the food bag and felt that it should taste good.

After opening the gift bag, Tom took out the big treasure he had been working on for several months: the alchemical armor.

[Alchemy Armor (Four Stars): Made of magic silver, coated with gold powder on the surface, it comes with extension spells, iron armor spells, floating spells and other spells, which can closely fit the body and reflect most spells]

In addition to the armor, he also took out his staff, but this time he did not inlay it. He just put the fragment of his magic ring on the end of the staff - if he doesn't reveal the good stuff, how can he attract the warrior to take the bait?

"Come on, stand still." Tom approached Buckbeak who was looking for mouse holes on the ground.

Buckbeak:?

"I'll wear something nice for you~"

"No!" Buckbeak refused.

It is a noble hippogriff, how can it let its beautiful feathers be covered?

Seeing Buckbeak's lack of interest, Tom didn't force himself and put on the alchemy armor himself.

After the armor was put on, it automatically began to shrink, and finally fit together with Tom's body, shrouding his entire body in golden armor.

Under the sunlight, Tom seemed to turn into the sun.

Buckbeak:!

If it's this kind of thing, it doesn't seem impossible?

Buckbeak's attitude softened.

When Tom saw this, he smiled slightly - he had long expected that the Hippogriff would like this tune, so when making his own armor, he also prepared a similar horse armor for Buckbeak.

As for the size, it doesn't matter. Magic can make the horse armor automatically change into a model suitable for Buckbeak.

Soon, Buckbeak also became golden, and his whole body was covered in golden armor.

Tom rode up, transformed into a heavily armored knight, and patrolled around the Whomping Willow.

So when Krum came to the Whomping Willow, what he saw was a knight in golden armor armed to the teeth. Even the knight's face was covered by a visor, making it difficult to see his face. The armor on the knight's body has gorgeous and dazzling patterns, which reflect dazzling golden light in the sun. The mount under the knight's crotch is also covered in golden armor. The sun's rays shone on the man and the horse, making them look like golden sculptures.

Krum: ...

It seemed like I saw something I couldn't afford to mess with. It's not very clear at first glance.

Slipping away...wait! As the world's top seeker, Krum's eyes are as sharp as an eagle's eye. So he immediately saw the inconspicuous fragment at the end of the weapon in the knight's hand.

"Magic Ring Fragments!" Krum's eyes suddenly became sharp.

Crum knew that fragmentation was the key to this game. Not long after entering the venue, I encountered a group of people. I was really lucky. But looking at the golden sculpture, Krum couldn't tell whether his luck was good or bad.

He looked at Tom under the tree in the distance and began to analyze.

Krum felt that the purpose of the game was not to tease people, but to test the abilities of the warriors. Therefore, Hogwarts will not put some enemies that are completely impossible to defeat, which means that the big guy in front of it should have weaknesses.

"Can't you attack with magic?" Krum touched his chin. The knight really didn't look like he was good at magic. At this time, Krum's eyes fell on the wand and shield in his hand.

Since the armor made by Tom completely covered the face and torso, Krum didn't realize that it was Tom Yoder, whom he had cared about before - he thought it was a golem made by the organizers of the competition. This caused fundamental problems with his analysis.

I... think I can give it a try? Krum's heartbeat began to accelerate, and fresh blood was pumped into his brain, making him gradually warm up.

If you can defeat this golem, the benefits you get should not only be the fragment, but also other props with special functions...

Klum is already thinking about the benefits of success.

Unlike Krum, who was excited, Durmstrang's students were generally anxious.

"This big guy looks very strong at first glance. Why doesn't Viktor avoid it?"

"Because he wants to deal with that big guy. He is worthy of being our Durmstrang warrior."

"I'm not very optimistic, but he is Viktor Krum! Maybe he can create miracles..."

Even Krum's classmates have a pessimistic attitude towards him.

As a professional Quidditch commentator, Lee Jordan would never turn off the power at this critical moment. He grabbed the microphone and said, "It can be seen that Krum really wants to try to challenge this knight in shining armor, but I highly doubt him." Whether it can be successful - it is said that the Ministry of Magic has provided comprehensive protection measures, I think we will see it soon."

The narrator of Beauxbatons is a little witch, and her attitude is much more tactful: "Obviously, player Krum is facing a very severe challenge. I just discovered that the knight in shining armor is not riding an ordinary horse. But a hippogriff..."

Unlike the neutral attitude of Beauxbatons' commentary, Lee Jordan's words are very biased - this is also the characteristic of his commentary. During the previous Quidditch match, he was the one who could openly support Gryffindor in front of the entire school's teachers and students.

Lee Jordan's words angered Durmstrang's commentator, who cleared his throat: "I need to remind you that Krum is a great seeker, and this challenge is nothing to him - —”

"But this is not a Quidditch match. I want to tell you a hot fact. Krum's Bulgarian team lost to... this summer with a score of 160 to 170..."

"Aren't you worried about your students?" While the two commentators were arguing, Mrs. Maxim glanced at Karkaroff sitting next to her. "The man under the tree, I guess is Tom Yoder. I don’t know where he got such a set of armor.”

Madame Maxime recognized Buckbeak on Tom's crotch. After analyzing it together with the information about the Hippogriff, she knew the true face of the person under the armor.

Karkaroff looked blank: "I believe in my warrior."

This sentence only received a blank stare.

Mrs. Maxim wanted to say: It’s useless for you to believe in Krum. Chamberlain still believes that he can bring peace! But she swallowed the words back in her stomach after all.

Anyway, it’s not Fleur who’s going to be in trouble now, let’s watch the show!

All eyes were focused on Krum's screen. Even though Cedric next to him was entangled by a troll again and Fleur opened a treasure chest, the audience couldn't take their eyes away.

When Krum saw Tom, Tom saw him. When he saw that instead of running away, Krum wanted to attack him, Tom sneered.

Let you try my new armor!

He pinched Buckbeak, turned the horse's head, and rushed towards Krum.

Buckbeak cooperated very well, walking as fast as flying, stepping out of the shadow with four legs, and at the same time stretched out his two wings, raising his momentum to the peak in an instant.

Krum:!

When Tom stood by the tree in a daze, he didn't feel anything was wrong - it was just a statue. As a result, after he started to move, Krum discovered that the charging cavalry and the stagnant cavalry were completely different species!

As a pure infantryman, facing the charge of the knights, he felt the pressure of a mountain falling apart.

Krum subconsciously raised his shield and cast an armor spell in front of him.

When Buckbeak's speed reached its peak, Tom swung his staff and hit the shield in Krum's hand with a stick.

Boom!

Krum flew up.
