Harry Potter and the Secret Treasures

512. Chapter 509 Long-lost Hogwarts Castle

    "You know, at the end of the last semester, Dumbledore took me to Beauxbatons. He was in midway with Beauxbatons' and now Madam Maxime took the time to return to the UK to discuss the matter."Ivan explained, “I also knew that Hogwarts was about to host the Triwizard Tournament, which is a traditional project of three famous magic schools in Europe…”

    "Wait a minute, I think of it!"Hermione suddenly said, “I saw in the book An Appraisal of Magical Education in Europe that the Triwizard Tournament was founded more than 700 years ago and is a friendship between the three largest magic schools in Europe. competition. The three schools are: Hogwarts, Beauxbatons and Durmstrang. Each school chooses a champion, and then three champions compare three magic items. The Triwizard Tournament is held every five years, and three schools take turns to host it. Everyone agrees that this is a great way to build friendships between young wizards in different countries. ”

    “Hold every five years?!”Ron said with amazement, "But I never knew that Bill, Charlie and Percy had definitely not seen such a game, nor did they go to the other two magic schools."

    “Because the Triwizard Tournament has been interrupted for centuries, I can’t believe they will recover…”Hermione said.

    Next, everyone started discussing the various details of the Triwizard Tournament.

    The sudden excitement and joy dilute the unhappiness that Malfoy brought, and even Ron's mood became better.

    Needless to say, both Harry and Ron want to be Hogwarts' Champion.

    Only Hermione alone thought that this might be dangerous.

    The train continued to travel north, and the rain became bigger and bigger.

    The sky was dark and the windows were covered with water, so the lanterns were lit during the day.

    It was awkward, the trolley for the meal was pushed down the aisle, and Ivan and Harry bought a lot of cakes and snacks.

    In the afternoon, people began to flow into this compartment.

    Most of them are looking at Ivan's, and everyone knows what Ivan is doing at the Quiddich World Cup.

    For a while, the small compartment was crowded with people and black.

    Among them are Ivan's knowledge, and some don't know him. Almost all young wizards come here.

    They endlessly discussed with Ivan the magic he cast and the attack on the World Cup. Hermione didn't seem to feel anything, and began to read "The Standard Book of Spells and try to learn a summoning spell."

    By the time Ivan finally sent Colin away, the train was almost ready for Hogwarts.

    They just put the school uniform on, the door opened, and the thunder of the air came.

    The young wizards got off the train and lowered their heads in the downpour, squinting.

    The rain was so fast and fierce, as if a bucket of cold water was pouring on each of them.

    "Hagrid!"Harry saw a huge figure on the platform and shouted.

    Behind Harry, Ivan, Ron, and Hermione also rushed to say hello.

    Hello , everyone !Hagrid replied in a harsh voice, "If we are not drowned, see you at the party!"

    By convention, new first years are ferried by Hagrid from the lake into the Hogwarts castle.

    Ivan watched Hagrid gather some very small children to the side and lead them to the dark lake.

    Because in the first grade, he and Harry and Ron were flying in the car, and all had not experienced this tradition.

    "Oh, I can't imagine flying over the lake in such a weather."Hermione trembled and said excitedly.

    They walked a little bit with the flow of people and walked through the dark platform.

    Outside the station, a hundred horseless carriages are waiting for everyone.

    Ivan, Harry, Ron, Hermione, and Neville quickly climbed one of them and felt relieved.

    The door slammed shut. After a while, with a violent bump, the long horse-drawn team followed the path leading to Hogwarts Castle, splashing all the way.

    The carriage passes through the gates with winged boar sculptures on both sides and follows the spacious driveway.

    The carriage swayed violently because of the wind.

    Ten minutes later, the huge outline of Hogwarts Castle appeared in the night, and many of the lit windows shimmered behind the thick rain curtains.

    Their carriage stopped at the stone steps in front of the two oak gates, and at that moment, a flash of lightning broke through the sky.

    The people in the front carriage had hurriedly climbed the stone steps and ran into the castle.

    Ivan, Harry, Ron, Hermione, and Neville jumped out of the carriage and ran on the stone steps in three steps.

    They did not lift their heads until they entered the cave-like hall.

    There is a torch in the hall, the marble staircase is extraordinary, everything is so familiar and warm.

    "Christ!Ron said, shaking his head and sprinkling the water drops everywhere. "If this is the next time, the lake will have a lot of water." I became a chicken…Ah

    A red balloon filled with water fell from the ceiling and exploded on top of Ron's head.

    Ron was soaked and drenched, and Barry muttered, and stumbled and fell to Harry next to him.

    Be carefulIvan hurriedly said that he had pulled Hermione.

    Hermione slipped and the whole man was kneeling on Ivan.

    At the same time, the second water bomb fell again, almost hit Hermione, exploding at the feet of two people.

    The people around them screamed and pushed each other, and they wanted to leave this right and wrong.

    Ivan looked up and saw twenty feet above their heads, floating with Peeves who loved pranks.

    He was short, wearing a hat with a bell, tied with an orange bow tie and holding a water polo in his hand.

    He made a face to Ivan, aiming at him as a target, and the muscles of the naughty wide face were tight.

    I haven't waited until he dropped the balloon inside his hand, and Ivan pulled out the wand at the fastest speed.

    The balloon filled with water did not fall, but floated beside Peeves.

    With a bang, the balloon exploded, and the icy lake was all spattered on the ass, without a trace.

    Followed by the water balloons beside Peeves, they exploded one after another.

    Lingshui wets Peeves, the only ghost in Hogwarts that can touch the entity.

    "Damn Ivan little devil!"Peeves screamed and disappeared deep into the corridor.

    Behind them, the young wizards whispered and slammed Ivan.

    Ivan was very famous before in Hogwarts, but since the Quiddich World Cup incident, this reputation has clearly risen to a higher level.

    Everyone seems to have extra expectations and admiration for all of his performances. This trend has made Ivan the most powerful young wizard of Hogwarts, recognized as the first person.
