Chapter 251
While Joshua was surprised by Burns' remarks, he really began to worry about the third item of the Fire Dragon Contest.
The civilization has been in the European magic world for a long time, and it is not the simple beauty pageants and competitions that have attracted the interest and attention of almost all European wizards and wizards in the world.
Violence has been one of the most effective means for people to vent their emotions since ancient times. Of course, it is not necessary to do it yourself. Watching intense violence can also satisfy people's psychology of seeking excitement.
The continuous secretion of adrenaline makes people's senses constantly magnified. Under this experience, people with a little unsteady will will be addicted to it.
The Fire Dragon Tournament is a game that brings intense sensory stimulation to the comfortable and calm European magic world.
Fire Dragon Fight, literally, is the most primitive physical battle between fire dragons. Of course, due to the participation of contestants who are fire dragon breeders, it also adds a little bit of magic.
In the previous years, the Fire Dragon Contest did not have the first two events of today. The wizards gathered together as if they were watching a boxing match, watching two wizards fight with two fire dragons.
Later, due to the high casualty rate and more and more wizards saying that it was too barbaric and bloody, the Fire Dragon Contest was reformed and the current competition system came into being.
However, the Fire Dragon Contest must have fire dragon battles to be called the Contest, so this event has been retained from beginning to end, because the people in the competition committee know why the venue that can accommodate 10 people is full of seats.
Joshua prided himself on being a bit capable, but in the hands of two giants and an experienced wizard, how much he could take advantage of without using many blind box items and props.
"Ms. Burns, do you really want me to withdraw from the competition?" Joshua said with childlike worry, "Then what will the newspapers say about me, coward?"
Burns looked at Dumbledore who stood in front of him and frowned, because he took his chance to speak.
"You have exceeded all of our expectations. As long as you agree, I will tell Akelia that our young British talent will be unable to continue playing due to some injuries in the previous game. "
Dumbledore said softly, you must know that the reason why the Fire Dragon Contest is hailed as the game with the highest casualties is that there are too many variables in the battle between fire dragons, even Dumbledore, the White Demon King, cannot do it. There is nothing wrong with it, now that Joshua has fulfilled his expectations, now he does not want to put himself, an excellent student, in any danger.
When Joshua was still hesitating and didn't give an answer, an abrupt voice appeared here just in time.
"I firmly disagree with his withdrawal from the game!"
Old Batty walked over with steady strides, and looking at his gloomy cheeks to a certain extent, he knew that he was in a bad mood right now.
Joshua looked at Tonks at the side, she wasn't picking her nose anymore, but was playing with her hair idly.
"Crouch" Dumbledore was not surprised by the appearance of Old Barty, but his persistent attitude made Dumbledore a little embarrassed.
"I, Barty Crouch, am the director of the Department of International Magical Cooperation and the person in charge of the British Ministry of Magic's hosting of the Fire Dragon Tournament. You have no right to make decisions for me!"
Old Batty roared in an orderly manner, and he was not too rude, but more of using his current identity to pressure Dumbledore.
Combined with his very characteristic mustache, coupled with his suppressed anger and unbearable appearance, it makes Joshua easily think of a failed art student called "scumbag".
"Director Crouch, do you know how much harm your decision will cause a 13-year-old underage wizard to suffer in the future!"
Burns was unusually strong. In the past, she seldom refuted old Batty, but now she had a fierce conflict with old Batty on one matter.
"I am the person in charge of this competition. I said that he cannot withdraw from the competition no matter what. If you insist on doing this, you should think about the consequences yourself!"
Old Batty's tough attitude was beyond everyone's expectations, and Dumbledore looked surprised, let alone Burns and Joshua.
Joshua couldn't figure out what it was that made Batty so stubborn to let Joshua continue the game.
"You!" Burns' body was trembling, and it seemed that she was very angry.
As the mediator acting in the middle, Dumbledore went out to mediate in the middle.
"I think we should find a place to have a good talk?"
No matter how tough old Batty was, he still wanted to give Dumbledore face, so he agreed to Dumbledore's invitation, but since old Batty's stubborn temper as always, the result has hardly changed.
After the three left, only Joshua, who was still in a daze, and Tonks, who was playing with his hair, were left here.
"I'm almost annoyed by the chattering." Tonks rolled his eyes, and his hair turned green in an instant
Joshua ignored her, and now Joshua urgently needs to know what's going on.
He quickly used the [Magic Communication Shell] to contact Dicky who was docking with Old Batty.
Then, under Tonks' inattentive eyes behind him, he roughly understood something.
It turned out to be the undercover Flynn they handed over to Old Barty in the Fire Dragon Sanctuary, Grindelwald.
Old Batty's people found out more content. Although they still couldn't learn more detailed plans, old Batty already knew that Grindelwald's goal was the Holy Grail of Merlin.
The Merlin Holy Grail will only appear when the champion of the Fire Dragon Tournament is produced. If Grindelwald wants to get it, he must wait for the result of the game. won the championship.
At this moment, Joshua is in the limelight. In order to ensure the smooth implementation of the plan, they are bound to attack Joshua. Old Batty's plan is to use Joshua as a bait. If he can use this to catch Grindelwald, His reputation is bound to surpass Fudge's in the British wizarding world.
In this way, he can take advantage of the opportunity to become the Minister of Magic of the United Kingdom.
Of course, the rest are all Joshua's guesses. Although there is no evidence, Joshua believes that Batty the Old is someone who can do such a thing.
As it is, if Joshua withdraws, he loses a very attractive bait.
Old Batty's radical idea does not consider other people's feelings at all. No wonder he sent an Auror to monitor Joshua. Now it seems that even the monitoring may be fake. His real purpose is to kill the enemy. Timely notifications when hooked.
There are so few subscriptions recently, alas.
