I can enter Hogwarts in the last days

Chapter 348 The Third Game of the Goblet of Fire
"I don't want to judge whether Regan is right or wrong, but what I want to tell you is the balance between rights and systems."

Having said this, Dumbledore paused deliberately for a short moment, leaving Percy a few seconds to think, and then continued:

"Everyone has his weaknesses, and no one can be impartial or selfless, so the issue of balance becomes particularly important..."

In the following time, in this small tree hole space, Dumbledore and Percy talked about many topics about power, from the Ministry of Magic to the Wizengamot, from the constitutional monarchy to the democratic republic.

In short, Dumbledore's powerful knowledge refreshed Percy's understanding of power.

After half an hour.

"Domination...control, institutional balance structure..." Percy muttered to himself.

It was obvious that Percy had entered a state of cognitive reshaping at this moment.

Seeing Percy's eyes getting clearer and clearer, Dumbledore also felt relieved from the bottom of his heart.

After a long time, a voice broke the peace here.

"Thank you for your teaching, Headmaster Dumbledore."

"No need to thank you, this is the responsibility of the principal." Dumbledore's tone was also full of joy, and he also expressed his point of view at the end:
"To be honest, I don't object to your pursuit of power."

"Of course, I know that very well."

Percy is not a stupid person. Whether he is a prefect, student council president, or Newt's 12 O's, it all shows one thing. Percy's intelligence is beyond that of most people.

Here, after Dumbledore saw Percy's inner transformation, he also lamented that with more patience, he might have been able to change many tragedies.

Obviously, many times, many things just require a little more patience.

……

November 1993, 5, sunny.

At 08:30 in the evening, Ian slowly came downstairs, walked through the foyer corridor, and walked along the stone steps.

The breeze of midsummer night not only brings a bit of coolness, but also washes away the hustle and bustle of the whole day.

At this moment, the sky outside had already turned completely dark, and the Hogwarts Castle shrouded in darkness gave people a mysterious and solemn feeling.

Stepping on the lawn, bathing in the oncoming breeze, Ian felt much lighter.

Not far away, the Quidditch pitch used to be very different from before.

Instead, there are brick walls of different heights. These brick walls are intricate and zigzag, extending in all directions, forming a maze that looks extremely complex.

Obviously, the area enclosed by these brick walls is the venue set up for tomorrow's third game.

"It doesn't seem to have changed, but it still feels different."

Ian looked at the maze in front of him and lamented that the third game of the Goblet of Fire was the same as the previous one.

But upon closer inspection, there are quite a few differences. First of all, the terrain is different from the towering and huge maze in the original work. The highest area of ​​the brick wall building the maze this time is only two or three meters.

This allows all viewers in the stands to clearly see the performance of the warriors in the maze.

There have also been huge changes in the rules. Although you are still looking for the Goblet of Fire in the maze, the difference is that after you get the Goblet of Fire, you need to protect the Goblet of Fire from being taken away within the specified time.

So it's not so much a maze treasure hunt as it is a free-for-all.

I have to say that this move was quite beautiful, and it directly killed all of Percy's early advantages.As long as Krum and Fleur join forces, Percy will basically have no chance of winning the championship.

Percy's overall strength is very strong, but his strength is limited. Whether he is facing off against Crom or Fleur one on one, Percy can definitely win.

But facing two people joining forces?To be honest, after the two of them join forces, they can fight even against ordinary Aurors.

First of all, in terms of age, 16-17 years old is just in the peak period of wizards. In terms of ability, there is no doubt about the ability of the warriors who represent the two schools.

"There's a spy out there... I don't know how angry Professor McGonagall will be."

Ian vaguely guessed that there was obviously a mole in the British Ministry of Magic.

The five judges set the rules by scoring. Durmstrang and Beauxbatons will inevitably choose the rules that are beneficial to themselves. They will be discarded in the five votes, which means that the remaining Professor McGonagall, Barty Crouch Sr., Ludo Bagman, one of these three people must have fallen to the opposite side.

Only in the case of 3:2 can we formulate a rules plan for the third game that is so unfavorable to Hogwarts and aimed at Percy.

Ian didn't have any dissatisfaction with this. No matter how you put it, he didn't cheat or cheat. Everything was within the rules, and even calculations were recognized.

……

Silent night, the next morning.

All the little wizards arrived at the auditorium early, and after breakfast they rushed to the Quidditch pitch non-stop.

Although the game starts at 9 a.m., no one will go there until 9 o'clock. You must know that there will be no waiting for people at a good viewing position.

Of course, there is another way, which is to use your own skills to customize a stand for yourself in the stands.

Ian was like this at the moment. He and Hermione entered the stadium at 8:45, then waved their magic wands and used the transformation spell to add two luxurious seats to the flagpole at the top based on the stands next to them.

Then he picked up Hermione beside him, released the magic nebula under the gaze of everyone, and the two of them floated into the air to the exclusive seats they had built.

"Ian, you shouldn't be like this." After sitting down, Hermione said calmly with a red face.

Although she and Ian had done many intimate things, this was the first time that she was held up and flew up under the watchful eyes of all the teachers and students in the school.

The reason why he remained calm was entirely due to the intimidation brought by the countless Quidditch telescopes in the stands.

"No? I don't want you and them to squeeze for space down there."

After Ian finished speaking, he glanced at Hermione's chest. He didn't know whether it was because of the accelerated growth of the time turner, or whether it was because of the thin summer clothes that accentuated her figure.

In short, the once flat plank road has now transformed into bulging hills.

Although the hills are not uplifted very much, the advantage is that the overall area is wide. It belongs to the type with a very solid foundation and immeasurable potential.

Ian lowered his head and glanced at his palms, and after comparing them quietly... he suddenly felt that if things continued like this, it might be difficult to cover the sky with one hand in the future.

Just as he was thinking, the venue burst into warm applause and cheers.

The three warriors stood outside the maze wall in order.

Perhaps because they are afraid of being ugly, the entry order this time is still based on the previous points. People with higher scores will have the opportunity to enter the venue first.

However, Ian feels that this is simply a wall that is both functional and upright. It is more than two meters high and less than 30 centimeters thick. What isolation effect can it play?I'm afraid it's not like a thunderbolt explosion can penetrate a row.

Early entry?It's just for good looks. Even if Percy found the Goblet of Fire in advance, it would only be a wedding dress for others.
