Harry Potter and the Temple of Tales

Lewis curled his lips, this situation is really not a big deal now.

After ending the first round with such a high-profile result, he would even wonder if Krum and Fleur would join forces to deal with him. When the time comes, one of them would stop him in the lake, try their best to interfere, and the other would take the opportunity to save people.

, making a time difference and taking the lead in the first place.

Although this possibility is not high, and the two of them may not bother to use such special means for a thirteen-year-old boy, Louis' strong performance is enough for both schools to take it seriously.

"Harry, come here too!" Li Jordan greeted Harry, who had just come down from the dormitory. He was still holding the golden egg he had snatched from the tree peak in Hungary.

"Open it, Harry, Louis, we've been looking forward to it for a long time." Dean Thomas whistled, "Yesterday you said you had to wait until Louis came before you could open it. Now that you are both here, let's see what's there.

clue."

Harry and Louis were surrounded in the middle. He placed the golden egg on the table, and everyone around him was encouraging Harry to open the golden egg.

"No, Harry..." Louis wanted to stop him, but it was too late. His hand had already been inserted into the groove of the hand and he pulled it open.

An extremely harsh scream that resounded throughout the world came from the egg. The noise as high as 120 decibels filled everyone's eardrums. Everyone involuntarily covered their ears and looked extremely painful.

"Close it quickly!"

Louis was so fast that he closed the open golden egg again with a "snap", the grinding scream disappeared again, and the Gryffindor common room returned to calm.

"What is that? A female ghost?" Fred questioned, "The Ministry of Magic won't let you deal with female ghosts, right?"

"It's impossible. None of the ghosts in Hogwarts have combat capabilities, and within Hogwarts, the ghosts' magic is restricted."

"It feels like someone is being tortured?" Neville shook his body, which seemed to remind him of a very bad memory.

"I think the clue is in this golden egg." Lewis looked at the golden egg and prompted, "That scream is not a sound that is for no reason. Could it be that there is a problem with the conductive medium?"

"What's the meaning?"

"That means we need to solve the puzzle. The Ministry of Magic won't be so stupid as to tell us the content of the game directly." Louis picked up the golden egg and threw it to Harry. The texture of the golden egg in his hand was indeed quite heavy.

"Maybe you could try listening to it in the water."

This is a good suggestion, and one of the privileges of being a warrior is that you can take a bath in the bathroom that only prefects and Quidditch captains are entitled to use.

The next days will be relatively easy, because Mr. Crouch told them that the next competition will not start until about three months later. The warriors have enough time to prepare. Three months later, that is,

The end of January after the New Year.

Lewis's wonderful performance in "The Dragon" won unanimous praise from the professors at Hogwarts, (except, of course, Snape, who was at odds with him.) Professor McGonagall even used him as a role model, requiring at least one class to learn from him.

He praised him four or five times, and the short Flitwick specially selected a period of time to explain ancient magic to the students in detail, although not many people could understand it.

Professor Trelawney was still predicting misfortunes for so and so, but she never found trouble with Louis again. Hagrid also made Louis a teaching assistant for a class because he could conquer fire dragons and take care of some other magical creatures.

No problem, although that class still looked a bit bad.

"Louis, Professor Dumbledore wants you to come over now."

After the History of Magic class, he just walked out of the cold and dark classroom and took a look at Colin.

He couldn't remember how many times he had gone to the principal's office. This time, he seemed to be more familiar with the route. He passed the stone monster statue at the door and walked up the spiral staircase that automatically lifted.

The door to the principal's office was open, and the sound of discussions could be heard inside.

Karkaroff was standing with Dumbledore and Barty Crouch, with a document on the table. As soon as he entered the door, the three pairs of eyes looked directly at Louis, and Karkaroff showed an expression of disgust.

"Ah, Louis, you came just in time. We are discussing the possibility of establishing a project." Dumbledore greeted him and brought him to the desk.

That document seemed to be some kind of agreement, a cooperation agreement between Durmstrang and Hogwarts.

"This is...."

"Igor and I discussed it before," Dumbledore said unhurriedly. "He feels that we need to strengthen cooperation and exchanges between our magic schools, so as to promote the peaceful development of the magic circles in various countries."

"Of course, this Triwizard Tournament is a preview. We will strengthen cooperation in all aspects in the future, including the upcoming summer exchange student program."

"Exchange student?" Louis is no stranger to this term. In the Muggle world, several schools have launched exchange student programs in order to strengthen cooperation and cultural exchanges. Several students exchange schools for study, and during the period of studying at each other's school,

The credits earned can also be converted into credits needed for your own school studies.

"Durmstrang is located in the Nordic area, where the Muggle credit system is implemented. Students in their school will stay in school during the summer vacation, so in order to enable students to graduate quickly, Durmstrang will

Launch summer school for students to study during the summer vacation." Crouch explained the cause and effect of this matter.

Louis still didn't understand the significance of Dumbledore calling him here. Did he want me to participate in the exchange student program?

"You are our perfect choice, Louis." Dumbledore looked at him, "Although Igor is a little reluctant, he can still accept it."

Karkaroff had a gloomy look on his face. He didn't say a word. He originally thought that it wouldn't matter if Dumbledore sent an insignificant student, but Louis, a thirteen-year-old boy who could survive the attack of Quetzalcoatlus, could hardly be said to be better.

Two brushes.

Of course, it would be best if he could stay on his own terms, but those bellicose Nordics probably wouldn't make it easy for him.

"Am I the only one, Professor Dumbledore?"

"Oh, of course not. We have arranged for about five students to participate in the exchange program this time. Except for you, every other college has a quota. Of course, Durmstrang students will join us as next fall students.

Studying at Hogwarts.”

Next year? Louis twitched the corner of his mouth, hoping that the students who came for the exchange could withstand the whipping of the pink toad, and that they would be fine.

"Don't be too busy to refuse." Dumbledore looked at him and took out a big treasure from his arms, "If you agree, this locket will be returned to you as a reward. I think you want it and a big treasure."

Use it."

Lewis paused, and he had to accept this temptation, because what Dumbledore took out was the purified Slytherin's locket.
