Harry Potter and the Old Ones

After Dumbledore negotiated with Madam Maxime for a while, he let Madam Maxime and the other Beauxbatons students into Hogwarts Castle, letting them go in first to warm up.

As the host, the other students of Hogwarts had to stand outside and wait for the Durmstrang students to arrive.

Nico Flamel's greeting and Hermione's roar just now made Tiera the center of attention——

After Nico Flamel's crystal ball, wig, white dress and metal brace reorganized his body and left, whispers came from the Gryffindor array, centered on Tiera.

"You actually know Nico Flamel!"

"Who is Nick Flamel?"

"Idiot, Nico Flamel is the greatest alchemist in the world! Now he has lived for more than 600 years and refined the Philosopher's Stone!"

"What? So awesome? Tiera, you actually know Nico Flamel?"

"Nicholas Flamel! You actually know Nichollemme?"

"Why didn't you tell us you knew Nick Flamel?"

"When did you meet Nick Flamel?"

…

It wasn't until Professor McGonagall shouted "Quiet" three times that the whispers in the Gryffindor square gradually disappeared.

They stood there and waited for a while, until they were shivering slightly from the cold. At this moment——

"Did you hear anything?" Ron asked suddenly.

A loud, strange sound drifted toward them from the darkness: a muffled rumbling and sucking sound, like a giant vacuum cleaner moving along the riverbed...

"In the lake!" Li Qiaodan shouted, pointing to the lake, "Look at that lake!"

Standing on the slope of the lawn overlooking the field, they could clearly see the calm, dark water—

But the water surface suddenly became no longer calm. There was a commotion under the water in the middle of the lake, huge splashes rose on the surface, and the waves crashed against the wet shore, and then——

Right in the middle of the lake, a large whirlpool appeared, as if a huge plug was suddenly pulled out from the bottom of the lake...

A long black rod-like thing slowly rose from the whirlpool...

"It's a mast!" said Harry.

Slowly, magnificently, the big ship rose out of the water, gleaming in the moonlight.

It had an eerie, skeletal appearance, as if it were the remains of a newly recovered shipwreck, and the portholes shone with a dim, foggy light that looked like ghostly eyes.

Finally, with a faint splashing sound, the big boat emerged completely, bumped on the undulating water, and began to sail towards the lake shore.

A moment later, they heard a splash as an anchor was thrown into the shallow water, and then another snap as a plank was set on the shore of the lake.

The people on the boat were disembarking, and Harry and the others could see the silhouettes of people passing by the light in the portholes.

Tiera noticed that most of them looked similar to Crabbe and Goyle——

However, when they came closer and walked along the lawn into the light cast by the foyer, Tiera realized that the reason why they looked so big was because they were all wearing a kind of fur cloak with shaggy and tangled fur.

But the man who led them towards the castle was wearing a different kind of fur: silver-white, soft and smooth, much like his hair.

"Dumbledore!" the leading man shouted enthusiastically as he walked up the slope. "My dear old fellow, how are you?"

"Excellent, thank you, Professor Karkaroff." Dumbledore replied.

Karloff's voice was mellow and sweet.

As he stepped into the light coming from the castle's front entrance, they saw that he was tall and thin like Dumbledore, but his white hair was short and his goatee was tipped in ringlets.

"Dear old man, Hogwarts." He looked up at the castle, said with a smile, and came up to shake Dumbledore's hand.

His teeth were very yellow, and although he was smiling, there was no smile in his eyes, which were still cold and sharp. "It's so good to be here, so good... Victor, come here and warm yourself up." ...You don't mind, Dumbledore? Viktor has a bit of a cold..."

Karkaroff motioned for one of his students to come forward.

When the boy walked by, Ron began to tremble with excitement, looking like he was desperately holding back his screams——

"I can't believe it!" said Ron in a shocked tone. "It's Krum, Harry! Viktor Krum!"

At this time, other Durmstrang students and faculty also lined up and stepped off the big boat one by one.

Standing at the forefront of all the students was an old woman with a straight back. Her silver-white hair was meticulously coiled on her head. Her skin was like dry tree bark, but her head was slightly raised. Looking at everyone in Hogwarts with a proud and unyielding expression——

Especially when she saw Dumbledore and Professor McGonagall, she snorted softly, and then quickly looked away.

And Dumbledore——

Tiera noticed that when the old woman appeared, Dumbledore visibly stiffened, and an embarrassed look flashed across his face, but he still put on a smile and stepped forward and said -

"Miss Rosier." Dumbledore said with a fake smile, "I didn't expect your arrival at all."

"Neither did I." Madam Rosier lowered her nostrils a little, nodded at Dumbledore, and then passed directly over Viktor Krum, Karkaroff and Dumbledore towards the inside of the castle Went in.

"snort!"

"snort!"

When Mrs. Rosier passed by Professor McGonagall, the two of them snorted disdainfully at the same time, then turned their heads and seemed to no longer look at each other.

Following Mrs. Rosier were two young and beautiful witches——

Like Mrs. Rosier, they were both dressed quite thinly.

Two little witches——

Approximately sixteen or seventeen years old, they all have white hair, but the shorter one has dark blue eyes. Although he is well-dressed, he looks a bit timid, and his fingers are constantly curling his hair. tip.

And the other one——

Ze Zhang was very tall, almost as tall as Viktor Krum. He raised his head proudly, his bright silver hair was neatly tied up like Mrs. Rozier, with a ribbon on the top of his head. Wearing a gorgeous crown like a crescent moon, she was wearing a light blue backless dress, holding a large thick book with a red cover in her left hand, and holding a weird metal scepter in her right hand.

Tiera and Dumbledore's eyes were simultaneously attracted by this witch dressed like a princess.

Dumbledore looked at the witch with some confusion, while Tiera's eyes——

Then she was attracted by the big red book in her hand——

Tiela has an impression of that book, Tiela has read that book!

In other words, Tiera has read a copy of that book——

"Red Priest's Tome"

Tiera learned about the "martyr" ritual from this book during the summer vacation of her second grade. A copy of this book is still in Tiera's library.

I didn’t expect to see the real thing here.

Presumably this game will be more interesting than the original——
