After the two principals exchanged a few words, Professor McGonagall led the Beauxbatons teachers and students to the interior of the castle.
A long time passed, but still no movement.
The little wizards looked up at the sky eagerly. There was silence all around for a while, and there was nothing in the sky.
As time went by, the temperature gradually dropped, and many little wizards were already shivering in the cold wind.
Suddenly, a curtain of light fell from the sky and shone on the little wizards. They were suddenly surprised to find that they had become much warmer.
"Professor Dumbledore, I think the students should be allowed into the castle to warm themselves up."
"In this kind of weather, it's not good for your body to freeze."
Dudley took back his wand and broke away from the group at the same time, walking to Dumbledore in two or three steps.
"Durmstrang was late, and for a long time. There is no need for the students to suffer here. They were the ones who broke the rules first."
Although he could always cast this warmth spell with his ability, he didn't want to pay for Durmstrang.
Being late is a bad thing no matter where you are.
Dumbledore thought for a moment and then agreed: "Pomona, please take the students in first."
'Mr Dursley is still so gentle. '
Dudley's actions just now undoubtedly won everyone's favor again.
If there was a favorability system, numbers like +1+1 would be flashing in front of his eyes.
The students entered the castle one after another, and only Dumbledore, Snape, Flitwick and a few students headed by Dudley were left on the lawn outside the castle.
Well. Only the prefects and the disciplinary team remained.
After a while, a strange sound floated in the darkness. It seemed to be a suppressed rumble mixed with a sucking sound, somewhat similar to a vacuum cleaner? !
This voice does not come from heaven
Lake. The sound comes from the Black Lake
Durmstrang did not take the air route, but chose the water route.
I saw that the calm black water surface became no longer calm. There was a commotion under the water in the center of the lake. Huge splashes rose on the water surface, and the waves crashed against the wet lake shore. In the middle of the lake, there appeared a big whirlpool
A black mast slowly rose from under the whirlpool.
"This way of appearing is a bit like the vortex in Heroes of Might and Magic III."
"The principles should be different."
Dudley looked at the gradually rising mast and thought that the vortex in Heroes of Might and Magic III had a certain chance of losing members of the ship.
That is to say, if the big octopus under the black lake has a good temper, the other one with a bad temper will be torn apart for you.
The Black Lake at Hogwarts is home to a giant octopus. No one knows how many years it has lived. Rumor has it that it is the mutated version of Godric Gryffindor.
Soon, a very magnificent ship slowly emerged from the water, shining brightly in the moonlight.
As the anchor was thrown into the shallow water, the huge cabin door slowly opened.
Big guys wearing special fur cloaks who could compete with Goyle and Crabbe walked out one by one.
"Dumbledore!" the man walking at the front shouted enthusiastically to Dumbledore as he walked up the slope: "My dear old fellow, how are you?"
"Very well, Professor Karkaroff." Dumbledore's answer was very plain.
Igor Karkaroff, headmaster of Durmstrang.
When Karkaroff found that except for Dumbledore, there were only a few people around to receive them, the smile on his face began to stiffen, and he immediately looked unhappy, as if he had changed into another face. Fortunately, because of Dumbledore, it didn't happen immediately.
What? You said he was late first.
Sorry, Karkaroff doesn't care about this. His original plan was to be late on purpose to give Hogwarts a blow.
Although his attitude toward Dumbledore had changed 180 degrees, he didn't say anything more.
This made Dudley look regretful. He originally wanted to find an excuse to let the other party know the importance of punctuality.
"It's been a long time since I've been here. It's great that Hogwarts is still so spectacular." Karkaroff looked up at the castle. Although his face was still smiling, there was no smile in his eyes, which were full of indifference and coldness.
"Victor, come here and warm yourself up. Do you mind, Dumbledore? Viktor has a little cold."
Karkaroff called a student behind him to come forward and bring him to Dumbledore.
With his small crew cut, striking aquiline nose and two thick, black eyebrows, his appearance is very easy to identify - Viktor Krum, Durmstrang's star student, Bulgarian national quidditch Team Seeker.
Karkaroff's intention is very obvious, which is to show off his outstanding students in front of Dumbledore.
Look, my student is the star Seeker in the Quidditch World Cup.
Dumbledore still had a smile on his face, and it didn't change at all.
In fact, to Dumbledore, no matter how good Viktor Krum is, he is just a Quidditch player. What has Dumbledore not seen in all these years? I have seen one of the pink humanoid toads.
Besides, the students at Hogwarts are not much worse than Viktor.
"I know you, I've seen you play."
Before Karkaroff could continue to show off, Viktor took the initiative to speak, and he said to Harry, who was standing next to Dumbledore, with excitement on his face.
"The winner of this Wizarding World Series is the famous Harry Potter. If I hadn't been busy participating in the Quidditch World Cup, I think I would have participated in that competition."
The charm of Wizard Cards is that almost all young people like them.
The other students at Durmstrang School also looked at Harry with admiration.
Many of them also participated in this competition, but unfortunately they did not even pass the preliminaries.
"uh-huh."
The sound of throat clearing caused Viktor to shift his gaze and his eyes lit up again: "By the way, there is also the runner-up, Mr. Draco Malfoy."
Draco nodded with a smile, enjoying the admiring looks of the Durmstrang students.
"Oh, Mr. Neville Longbottom, the semi-finalist, is here too. I can't believe you are all Hogwarts students. I thought there were one or two from Beauxbatons."
As he spoke, Viktor's eyes moved away again and fell on Ron. As the person who loved Quidditch the most among the discipline team, he admired Viktor very much and even regarded him as his idol and effort. The goal.
Just when Ron was excitedly preparing to enjoy his idol's praise, Viktor's eyes moved away from him without stopping for a moment, and then his body paused slightly, and then he was even more excited than when he saw Harry.
"You are the inventor of the Wizarding Card, Mr. Dursley!"
