Bab 274: Chapter 274: The duel is about to begin
Knockturn Alley, Arya Manor.
In the hall room, Arya, Violet, and Nagini, three beauties with different temperaments, gathered together.
"We have these materials now, but they are far from what's on the list."
After reading the list, Arya looked a little dignified.
They couldn't even satisfy the 1% above with their current inventory. This was the result of her deliberate collection following Alvin's instructions.
At this time, Nagini, who had been silent all the time, said. "Master said you can do your best. If England is not enough, go to France, and if France is not enough, go to German."
Hearing Nagini's words, Arya thought for a moment, then nodded.
Now she controls most of the underground power in the magical community in England. When she expands upwards, she will touch the bottom line of some pure-blood families and the Ministry of Magic.
This opportunity to expand to several other countries is also a good way.
However, before expanding, she still has to help Alvin collect as enough materials as possible.
On Sunday, because of tonight's task, the students in the Great Hall did not leave after dinner.
At this time, the Great Hall was restored to the layout of the dueling club, but the dueling platform in the middle became more gorgeous and eye-catching.
Fred and George were crowded around the long table in Gryffindor.
"It's the last hour! The students who didn't make a bet quickly made a bet."
George shouted excitedly, shaking a bag full of Galleon in his hand, bewitching the little wizards around.
Fred, on the side, was even busier, and little wizards constantly made bets.
At this time, a little wizard from Hufflepuff saw the odds between Harry and Cedric, and his eyes widened.
"Weasley, did you write it backward? Why is Cedric 3 to 1 and Harry 1.3 to 1."
Hearing his words, several Hufflepuffs behind him also came over to see what was going on.
Fred waved his hand impatiently. "No, the odds above are specially calculated by experts, and we didn't make a mistake. Would you bet?"
His words also angered a group of Hufflepuff's little wizards. Your House to look down on us?
Now it's said that Cedric's sixth grade can't beat Harry's fourth grade?
"Bet! Let's bet!"
A little fat man pushed through the crowd and gave a handful of Galleons to Fred, "15 Galleons, all for Cedric!"
"Mondo, are you crazy? This is your one-year pocket money!"
His companions looked at him in amazement, not knowing what he was doing.
The fat Mundo shouted to his friends and the Hufflepuffs. "Idiot, Weasley and the others look down on Cedric. Let's bet more and let them regret!"
"But..." a junior Hufflepuff hesitated, "If Cedric loses, we're going to eat dirt..."
Mundo really disagreed. "What are you afraid of? Don't you still believe in Cedric's strength? Weasleys and the others look down on us Hufflepuffs so much!"
The more he talked, the more excited he was, and he also infected other Hufflepuffs.
"That's it. How could Cedric lose!"
"There are no pants left for Weasley if they lose!"
Fred received bets from dozens of Hufflepuff wizards in just a few minutes, and the amount was not small.
And the student named Mundo winked at the twins and quietly disappeared into the crowd.
Alvin watched the whole scene at the long table behind them.
After seeing the last interaction between Mondo and Fred, he almost spits the tea in his mouth.
Good guy, he called it good guy!
At first, he thought the fat boy was complaining about Cedric, but he didn't expect that Fred would arrange for him.
Who said Hufflepuffs is honest?
"The professor is here!"
I don't know who shouted, and everyone around the twins dispersed.
Several Headmasters/Headmistresses and all the professors entered the Great Hall and took their seats.
The twins also hurriedly put away the 'tools for committing crimes', and when they saw that Professor McGonagall didn't look at them, they were relieved.
Because there is no job for Alvin today, he did not sit on the referee's bench but sat next to Hermione and others.
Hermione looked around, but it was strange that she didn't see Fleur.
"They're still doing the final wand check to prevent cheating."
Alvin saw her doubts and explained with a smile.
Ten minutes before eight o'clock, Fleur and several other Champions entered the Great Hall through the side door and stood under the duel stage.
There were still nervous expressions on their faces. Although the first match was broadcast live, it was the first time they competed in front of many wizards like this.
Alvin smiled and made a cheering gesture to Fleur, and the little witch responded with a big smile.
Cassandra stood beside Fleur, observing their interaction and feeling sour.
And Alvin also saw Cassandra. He waved to Cassandra and said, 'Come on' with his mouth.
Cassandra didn't expect Alvin to cheer her on. She was a little embarrassed, but she nodded politely to Alvin, her face a little hot.
At this time, Dumbledore also stood up.
"Welcome, everyone. Give applause for our Champions!"
The little wizard in the audience gave a warm applause.
When the applause died out, Dumbledore continued. "Next, our Champions will have a fierce duel, and I have some rules to announce."
"First, losing the ability to resist or falling off the dueling platform is considered a failure, and the winner cannot continue to attack."
"Second, Champions are not allowed to use any magical objects and potions. I think you all know this one."
"The third and most important point." Dumbledore's voice suddenly became serious, "You Champions must never use the three Unforgivable Curses."
He did not mention the issue of Dark Arts, which Karkaroff requested. The advantage of their school lies in Dark Arts. Dumbledore thought about it and agreed.
Several Champions also nodded, indicating that they understood.
Immediately, Snape also boarded the duel stage. He is today's duel referee.
Harry and Cedric looked at each other and walked up from both sides of the dueling platform, standing opposite each other.
