Chapter 283 Preparation
Chapter 283 Preparation
The snail shell becomes very soft, has no ductility, and the thickness is different. The better part is that it can be shaped at will.
Nix was making armor for the first time, and the snail shells were difficult to handle, making it very difficult.Fortunately, in order for Neville to understand how to wear it, he designed the armor into a combination of modules, which makes it easier to make.
Tifa and Luna teach Neville how to cast the Coming Charm.
When Neville was practicing alone, Tifa complained to Nix: "The Slytherins don't know where the confidence comes from, they laugh at no one in Ravenclaw for the Triwizard Tournament, as if they did. I If Malfoy fails the first level, he will die."
"Do me a favor and cut them all," Nix said.
Tifa cut open the softened snail shell and continued, "And the Hufflepuffs, they're so arrogant, it's as if Cedric has won."
"Indeed, I am also more optimistic about Cedric. If there is a bet, I will press Cedric to win."
"Gambling! I almost forgot. Brother, George and Fred asked me to be a joint banker. Should I agree to them?"
"It depends on whether you want to make money or not. If you want to make money, you can agree. If you don't want to, you can't."
"Would you bet?" Tifa asked.
"Maybe."
"Wouldn't it be better to bet with you?"
"I don't mind, but just don't regret it."
Tifa looked at Nix lost in thought.Regret, does it mean that my brother may also be wrong?But my brother has never missed it since he was a child.
Nix molded the snail shells into another solution that neutralized the softener and made the snail shells hard again.
When returning to the castle, Nix saw Viktor Krum exercising by the lake, followed by a group of girls who wanted to sign autographs, and a few boys not far away were also ready to move.
There was no Filch at the gate of the castle, and during the time Beauxbatons and Durmstrang students were at school, she did not intend to stand at the gate fishing and damage the image of Hogwarts.
There were not many people eating dinner in the auditorium, and Nix saw Harry and Hermione.Sitting down beside them, he asked, "What's the matter? You look listless."
Harry said, "Nix, do you still have any potions?"
"you want?"
"Yes, powerful potions, nothing like Filch's. Can it be made before the match?" Harry asked.
Nix explained: "Harry, you can't become powerful by drinking a potion once. You see Seamus, he took three times. The same goes for Filch."
"But I know Lupine only drank it twice, and the Ravenclaw ghost, she only took the potion once. They're both strong."
Nix shook his head: "I want to remind you that they are very strong themselves. Besides, Lupine is a werewolf, Mrs. Gray is a ghost, and you are just a little wizard who cannot bear the potions they use."
Hermione asked, "Then how are you going to help Neville? He drank the potion twice, and he doesn't seem to have any special abilities other than planting trees."
"There is no way to make him stronger with potions in a short time, so I made him a set of armor."
Harry reminded: "The first item can only use wands, not armor."
"Flying curse, summon armor, and then challenge..." Nix stopped in time, he almost said the dragon.
Hermione sensed that Nix had a problem: "You know the first challenge?"
"I don't know. Although I was there at the time, Barty Crouch didn't say the content of the challenge, only that he wanted to test the Warriors."
Hermione: "Then why are you so sure that armor can help Neville?"
Nix smiled: "The armor made of snail shells is hard, not afraid of flames, and reflects magic spells. As long as the opponent does not know the black magic of Fiendfyre, they will kill randomly."
"Do you have any extra shells? How about making me a set?" Harry asked.
"No, look at Neville's figure."
Neville on one side kept eating, paying no attention to what they were talking about.
Harry and Hermione sighed, not sure if Neville was unlucky or lucky.
Tifa asked, "Why didn't I see Ron, I still want to see his disappointed face."
"I haven't seen him in a day." Harry was a little downcast.
Seamus entered the auditorium, his expression was not right, and he saw Harry walking quickly.
"Great, you're all here."
"What's wrong?" Harry asked.
"I just ran into Malfoy, he provoked me, so I fought back a little. You know I was never afraid of him, I wanted to do it at the time, but unfortunately Professor Snape is not far away ..." Seamus spoke at length.
"What are you going to say?" Nix asked.
"Well, he said he wanted to make me look good in the game."
"It's fine if you call back." Several people didn't understand what Seamus meant.
"Well, he said that the game will kill people." Seamus said.
"It's normal, half of the warriors who participated in the Triwizard Tournament died." Hermione said: "I really don't know what you think, Dumbledore has emphasized countless times that the competition is very dangerous, don't participate under the age of 17, is it only Nick?" Did S listen alone?"
"I've listened to it too, and I don't want to participate." Neville was almost done eating.
"You shut up," Hermione yelled, seeing Tifa blushing.
Tifa was very guilty, she didn't expect Neville to be selected, and she complained in her heart that Ludo Bagman was too bad, and she told him not to be selected, but instead she was selected.For Neville, she doubled her spare time. I don't know if Professor McGonagall will teach her a lesson for abusing the Time-Turner.
Seamus was silent for a while, then made up his mind and said, "Harry, let's join hands and get Malfoy out first."
Hermione said angrily: "Haven't you figured it out yet? The competition is very dangerous, it's not about playing around!"
Seamus stared at Harry, awaiting his answer.He wants to be a champion, and seeing Harry in the spotlight every year, it's impossible not to be jealous.
Harry thought about it for a while, and it would not be a disadvantage to team up with Seamus. Seamus was not as good as him in magic spells, but his fire control was very powerful, and the two of them could beat most people together.
When he was about to agree, Neville spoke first: "Bring me one, and I will join hands with you."
"No, you'll be slow." Seamus refused.
"Let me think about it." Harry didn't agree immediately after hearing the words.During the day, Hermione analyzed the situation for him, and the person who suggested him to join forces was Neville, so he decided to write to Sirius Black to ask.
Neville left with Nix after the meal.He worried: "Nix, will I die?"
"Don't worry, as long as you learn the Flying Curse, passing the test is not a problem. If you don't compete for the championship, your life is not in danger." Nix said in relief.
Just out of the auditorium, the two saw Snape standing on the stairs. "Nix Lestrange, come to my office."
