Chapter 264 meet again(1/2)
After Michelle left, John also took out the telescope given to him by Bagman.
John was no stranger to this thing.
He, Harry and others bought it when they were watching the Quidditch World Cup.
This thing has a lot of built-in magic. It can not only zoom in and out of the screen you see, but also display part of the game information on the screen, and it can also record.
And when Bagman gave this thing to John, it was obviously not possible that he was afraid that John would be bored and intended to let him watch Quidditch game videos for entertainment.
John put the telescope in front of his eyes, and sure enough, the live broadcast of the Triwizard Tournament outside was displayed in front of him.
The perspective displayed in the magic telescope was perfect, and John was almost overlooking the entire stadium and stands.
John estimated that Bagman replaced the telescope lens with a double-sided mirror, and then he brought the other double-sided mirror to the arena to create such a live broadcast effect.
In the picture, the huge circular stands are crowded with people.
Almost everyone was shouting excitedly.
In the center of the arena, a huge fire dragon with a black jade ridge on its back was pacing.
It looked very aggressive and violent. It kept roaring and spitting out terrifying flames.
Michelle was slowly walking towards the fire dragon under everyone's gaze. As she walked, she was waving hello to the audience.
That kind of strolling around with a smile on his face doesn't look like he's here to participate in a competition at all, but more like he's on a spring outing.
This is in sharp contrast to the four warriors before.
It also made many people in the arena laugh.
But their laughter didn't last long before disappearing.
Because the Norwegian Crested Dragon in the center of the arena has already launched an attack.
It flapped its wings and flew straight towards Michelle with a roar.
Michelle's movements were not slow either. She flicked her wand, and the stones under her feet seemed to come to life and began to lift her and move quickly to the side.
"boom--"
The Norwegian Crestorus bit down hard on the place where Michelle was standing, biting a stone there into pieces.
Michelle easily dodged the blow, and with the support of the stone, she raised the wand while widening the distance from the Norwegian Crested Dragon.
At the same time, the Norwegian Cryptosaurus, which spat out the gravel in its mouth, charged at Michelle again.
This dangerous scene caused a series of exclamations from the stands.
John, who was watching the live broadcast alone in the tent, sat up straight unconsciously.
The next step is to see if Michelle can hit the fire dragon's eyes with the [Eye Spell].
This is the most critical step.
Based on John's understanding of Michelle, this would not be difficult for Michelle at all.
However, Michelle has not launched an attack on the Norwegian crested dragon for a long time.
A flash of confusion flashed across Michelle's face.
Immediately afterwards, Michelle actually stopped the high-speed moving rocks under her feet, put down her wand at the same time, and stood there, looking straight at the roaring Norwegian Crested Dragon.
"Michelle! What are you doing!"
John groaned subconsciously.
Many people in the stands also screamed.
Snape had even drawn his wand and was about to jump off the stand.
However, the next moment, when the Norwegian Crestorus had opened its bloody mouth and bit her, Michelle was heard shouting with some uncertainty:
"Norbert?"
The movement of the Norwegian Cryptosaurus stopped.
Its teeth were less than two meters away from Michelle. As long as it arched forward slightly, it could easily bite Michelle to death.
But it didn't do that.
After standing there for a while, it closed its mouth and brought the huge dragon head in front of Michelle, its nose twitching as if it was distinguishing the smell.
"Ha-is it really you, Norbert?!"
Michelle shouted excitedly, and immediately hugged the head of the Norwegian Cristosaurus.
Being hugged like this, Norbert the Norwegian Ridgeback finally recognized Michelle's identity.
Its body suddenly softened and it lay on the ground. Its big head arched and arched in Michelle's arms, and it kept mumbling, as if it was telling its mother its sorrow and sorrow.
Just like the grievance.
Michelle responded with "um um ah ah", as if she really understood.
There was silence in the stands.
Everyone was a little overwhelmed by this sudden turn of events.
After several seconds, cheers like a mountain roar and a tsunami swept the entire arena again.
"It's... what a surprise! Michelle Shafik subdued the ferocious Norwegian Crested Dragon effortlessly!" Bagman shouted, "Although I don't know how she did it.
, but it’s really outstanding!
But should she go get the dragon egg now? Why is she still chatting with that dragon?"
Bagman's comments made the commotion in the stands even louder.
John also breathed a sigh of relief.
He recognized it.
The Norwegian Crested Dragon should be Norbert who was hatched by them and Hagrid and later given to Charlie.
Noble has been very close to Michelle since he was a child, so it is understandable that he would have such a reaction.
John also recalled the previous conversation with Charlie at Wes's house.
When Charlie was asked about Noble, he clearly said, 'If you are lucky, you may all see her this year.'
Thinking about it now, Charlie should have known about this a long time ago.
John searched through the camera, and sure enough he saw Charlie among the team of dragon trainers on the edge of the field.
At the same time, under Bagman's repeated urging, Michelle, who was chatting with Norbert, finally reluctantly picked up the golden egg.
Norbert followed her step by step, still looking aggrieved.
In the end, not even Charlie and the other dragon trainers were able to pull it open, so they had no choice but to ask Michelle to help take Norbert away from the arena.
After people sent Michelle off with shouts and applause, a dispute broke out on the referee's bench.
Thanks to the good viewing angle Bagman chose for him, John could clearly see Karkaroff blushing and yelling at Crouch:
"Cheating! This is definitely cheating! That girl and the fire dragon have known each other for a long time! I even suspect that she raised the Norwegian Crested Dragon!"
Maxim also echoed with a cold face:
"The Ministry of Magic and Hogwarts should give us an explanation!"
Crouch's expression was indifferent, his eyes slowly swept across the faces of Karkaroff and Maxim, and he said disdainfully:
"Whatever you say. If you think this game is unfair, you can abandon the game at any time, as long as you can bear the price of violating the ancient contract of the Goblet of Fire."
Karkaroff and Maxim were furious.
They clenched their fists and were about to explode.
This is what Bagman said in a hurry:
"That's not the case! We are all companions, so it's really not like this! Let's score quickly, don't keep everyone waiting!"
After speaking, he took the lead in raising his wand and sprayed a number nine composed of golden light into the air.
Crouch followed closely behind, also giving nine points.
Dumbledore smiled and gave it ten points.
Maxim and Karkaroff looked at each other, their faces full of anger.
Finally, they seemed to have reached some consensus silently, and they all raised their wands.
Karkaroff - one point!
Maxim - four points!
"Oh! These two shameless old men! This is obviously partiality!"
Ron in the stands cursed directly.
There are not many people who have the same view as him.
For a moment, the entire stand was filled with curses against Karkarov and Maxim.
To be continued...
