Chapter 242 Malfoy: Invincible is so lonely
(Thanks to andychoi for your rewards and support)
Another semester is coming to an end. When other wizard apprentices are trapped in the exam, contestants like Malfoy who have "final exam immunity" meet with parents invited to watch the final battle in the lounge. Malfoy thinks that the greatest value of participating in this bird feather competition lies in this. His grades have been falling all the way in the past two years, and he really doesn't want to hand over the transcript to his father who requires "noble" in everything.
Of course, Malfoy is not a real waste house. He is not interested in studying, and is addicted to video games. He is very clear about the importance of power when he ran out of Yanan. So he will also accompany Astoria to perform some magic exercises that may not be useful in Yanan, but are very useful in the wizarding world: such as obstacle spell, a magic that can prevent opponents from moving forward or slow them down; such as clearing spell, a magic that can quickly clear solid obstacles; such as direction spell, a magic that can point the wand to the north.
Since his mother Narcissa was also present, his father Lucius was very easy to deal with. Malfoy casually kept his ideas on the basis of the Death Eater. Lucius, who always pointed at his new thoughts, fooled him. Time spent greeting him with his father and all the powerful people until the end of the last exam, which meant that the fifth trial of the Triumph Championship was about to begin. Malfoy carried the Lake Shield brought back from Yanan, which could withstand magic attacks, and carried the Moonlight Sword that was relatively suitable for use in a narrow environment, and followed the large army to the field beside the Forbidden Forest.
Given Slytherin's eternal arrogance, Malfoy and others were the last to arrive at the stadium, the stands were already filled with spectators, the entire stadium was filled with their yelling excitement and the rumble of their feet on the floor.
The last trial consisted of ten mazes, each of which Hogwarts, Boothbaton and Demstrong sent a team to enter. The young magicians would set up many traps and evil curses to fight on the principle of not harming their lives.
"Astoria, you should never walk in this dark and creepy passage, probably nothing good is wrong... Yanan's experience tells me this." I don't know if it is because the semester is about to end and he is going to be captured by Leeds to fight monsters. At this moment, all the replays of Malfoy in his mind are the creepy passages in Yanan that make him creepy.
"I wish you a championship in advance, Mr. Malfoy, Miss Greengrass." Fauge, the Minister of Magic, who came up and down from the steps to the ground, smiled.
"Thank you for your congratulations, Mr. Foggy," Malfoy neither felt nervous nor felt that he would be overturned. He smiled and responded to this sentence as if it was a little early. "... After the award ceremony, Professor Leeds has made arrangements for the championship prize. Please prepare for Mr. Foggy."
"Please rest assured, we will definitely cooperate with Professor Leeds' arrangements." Fudge said very terriblely, but he immediately turned and lowered his voice, "... Speaking of which, where is Professor Leeds now? I have a lot of things to ask him."
The first place bonus has been arranged, but what about the second, third, fourth and fifth prizes? If Leeds let go, the Ministry of Magic will do it well, and Fauci will do it well for his own vault.
"?" Malfoy turned around in confusion. Sure enough, the position of Leeds on the referee's seat was only sitting at a vampire loli licking blood-red popsicles. The doorman wearing a green cheongsam was also next to him, but the cold maid was also gone.
"Who knows... Anyway, he doesn't do anything at the last moment of the Triumph Championship, I think he's changed his sex life." Malfoy rolled his eyes and said.
"Cough." Fudge coughed dryly. When he didn't hear this, he would never provoke Leeds without provoking him. "The inspector who inspected outside the maze has already taken his seat. I'm going to speak- see you later, Mr. Malfoy."
Malfoy also heard this pun: "See you later, Mr. Foggy."
After Connelly Foggy ran onto the stage, he pointed his wand at his throat and shouted "The sound is loud". His voice immediately amplified and resounded throughout the audience.
"Gentlemen, ladies, the last round of this cup is about to begin! Let me tell you the rules of this round. Hogwarts, Boothbaton and Demstrong respectively sent a team to enter each maze, and three groups competed with each other. Those who remained conscious after the end of the one-hour time limit will score 25 points; each knockdown of a group of opponents will score 25 points; when reaching the end point within the time limit, get 25 points, and when reaching the end point to obtain the marker, get 25 points - in other words, if you want to score 100 points, you must knock the opponent down, otherwise you will get 50 points at most."
"For the safety of the contestants, all traps and evil curses in the maze are non-fatal, and we also prohibit the players from causing casualties when competing! If there is an abnormal situation, please fire the illumination magic into the sky, and the staff will immediately perform rescue!" What Fauci was most worried about was a safety accident and let them take the blame for the Ministry of Magic. "Due to time constraints, we have completed the lottery process in advance. Now, the contestants are invited to reach the corresponding maze. Please note that each maze has three entrances, so don't go wrong."
Malfoy pulled Astoria, who was so nervous that his palms were sweating, and walked to the corresponding maze entrance, but - what about their opponents?
"...The students in this group were injured accidentally during training and had no choice but to abstain from the right." Kakarov stood up and explained, and immediately sat back with a bad look.
"It's really a pity that they are suffering from an acute illness and are unable to participate in the competition." Maxim also stood up and expressed his opinion. He sat down immediately as soon as he finished speaking, and his expression was not very good-looking.
The scene was very awkward.
Except for purebred Muggles like Hermione's parents who are confused about this, everyone else knows what's going on.
——You're scared.
He dared not to cut three adult dragons in the first trial and harshly slashed his competitors in the second trial. It was that simple.
Kakarov and Maxim hoped that their students would participate in the competition. It would be impossible for them to defeat Malfoy, but if they were lucky and were not caught by Malfoy for an hour in the maze, Malfoy only had 50 points. Krum or Fleur, who were assigned to the other group, gave him a 100 point and turned around and won the championship! The score difference between the top few places is not that much!
The problem is, those two groups of students don’t want to fight for Krum and Furong! They are humans, but they are not humans?
"Well, it's really regrettable news..." Fuji coughed dryly. This was the core reason why he congratulated Malfoy in advance, "Then--"
(Beep--!!!) When Foggy blew his whistle hard, the contestants ran into the maze, leaving only the lonely Malfoy and Astoria.
"In such a narrow passage, I was thinking of charging and cutting hard on the shield. It was useless to prepare the Lake Shield..." Malfoy shook his head and walked in slowly.
"Hehe~ Draco? Are we going to find the finish line?" Astoria had no reason to be nervous.
Chapter completed!
