John and Michael have been monitoring it quite closely these days.
John is responsible for monitoring his activities at Hogwarts, while Michael is responsible for monitoring his activities outside school.
For nearly half a month, Bagman has not shown any clues.
This moment made John a little frustrated.
But tonight, Bagman, who was not supposed to be in Hogwarts, suddenly sneaked back and mysteriously told John that he wanted to show him something important.
This is undoubtedly the 'abnormal behavior' that John has been looking for.
"John, stop being dazed!"
Seeing John's delay in responding, Bagman urged anxiously, "Come with me quickly, this matter is really important to you, and it is not convenient for others to find out!"
"Oh - of course, we can leave now."
John smiled and pondered.
After hearing this, Bagman was overjoyed and took John out of the castle.
John did not resist, with a smile still on his face, but he quietly grasped the nun's wand in his right hand.
He was going to use himself as bait to catch the big fish Bagman.
If Bagman was really planning to lead him into a trap and do evil things to him, then John would have full confidence in capturing Bagman while ensuring his own safety.
After all, this is Hogwarts.
He only needed to make some big noise, and the professors in the castle, including Dumbledore, would quickly rush to support him.
The two of them kept walking in the darkness, heading straight towards the Forbidden Forest.
The twinkling lights of Hogwarts Castle are gradually fading away, and finally disappear completely.
At this moment, John heard a series of deafening screams...
"Aha! We're here!"
Bagman shouted excitedly.
He led John to quicken his pace.
And when they turned around a small forest, the scene that appeared in front of them made the muscles on John's face twitch involuntarily.
dragon!
Six very ferocious-looking fire dragons were locked in a field surrounded by thick wooden boards, standing on their hind legs and roaring.
Their necks are raised high, and their mouths are as high as fifty feet from the ground.
Along with their huffing breaths, balls of flames spurted out from their open fanged mouths and shot into the dark night sky.
One of them, a silver-blue dragon with a pair of long sharp horns, was angry and roaring at the wizard on the field.
A green dragon with smooth scales was twisting and stamping its feet desperately.
A red dragon, with a ring of weird-looking thin sharp horns around its face, was spraying mushroom-shaped fire clouds into the air.
There is also a black dragon swaying its spiked tail.
The last two dragons are fighting each other.
Their body shapes and sizes vary greatly.
The small fire dragon was very aggressive and was constantly provoking the big dragon.
The big dragon was relatively gentle. Faced with the bites and provocations of the little dragon, it just shook its huge body gently and was able to throw the opponent away.
There are at least sixty wizards on the site, and every seven or eight wizards are responsible for dealing with one dragon.
They tugged at the chains and waved their wands.
Various magic spells were continuously sprayed on the fire dragons, but most of them were bounced away by their anti-magic scales and skin. Only a few magic spells could have some effect.
Amid the roars and wails of the fire dragons, the entire battle became more and more intense.
John estimated that it would take a long time for this group of dragon trainers to subdue all these violent fire dragons.
"What terrifying creatures!" Bagman exclaimed, "These guys were all just shipped from all over the world today. Obviously before they arrived, they were all injected with super powerful potions of weakness and hypnosis.
.But now they are still so...violent!"
John stared at the fire dragon not far away and said calmly:
"Is this what you want to show me?"
"Yes, because they are what you need to face in your first project."
Bagman explained, "There are six fire dragons in total, namely Swedish Brachysaurus, Welsh Green Dragon, XX Fireball Dragon, Hungarian Horntail Dragon, Norwegian Crestorosaurus and XXX Ironbelly Dragon.
At that time, you will draw lots to select your respective fire dragons, then go around them and steal the golden dragon eggs they guard.
This is a very difficult task, because they are all female dragons that have the habit of brooding and hatching eggs, and anyone who wants to steal their eggs will be attacked crazily by them."
Having said this, Bagman suddenly paused, put on a flattering face and said:
"John, this is very important news, and it will be of great help to you in the next game. I took a lot of risks to bring you to see it, so you see...can you reduce some of my
debt?"
John glanced at Bagman.
Obviously, Bagman was not bribed by the goblins to lure him out of the castle and attack him.
But simply because of the high debt, I wanted to please him and tried to pay off the debt.
This made John a little disappointed.
Taking a deep breath, John frowned and shook his head:
"Unfortunately, not possible."
Bagman said with some dissatisfaction:
"Why?"
"Because even if you don't come and tell me," John said calmly, "someone else will tell me about it."
Bagman still wanted to argue, but he was stuck before he could say anything.
Because John pointed into the darkness, and looking in the direction he pointed, Bagman could clearly see two figures moving quietly around the fire dragon enclosure through the light of flames spit out by the fire dragons.
They are none other than Hagrid and Madame Maxime.
A little further away from them, Karkaroff was still walking slowly in the darkness.
Bagman's eyes slowly widened.
Maxim and Karkaroff knew about the fire dragon and would definitely tell Fleur and Krum.
There is no doubt about this.
Similarly, Hagrid will definitely inform John, Harry and others.
This also means that his behavior of coming to inform John is indeed of little value to John.
Bagman looked a little confused and seemed to be a little bit shocked.
Seeing this, John smiled slightly, and Yang pretended to be helpless and sighed:
"Forget it, since you also have good intentions, I will reduce your debt by one thousand galleons."
"Really...really?" Bagman was a little confused. It took him a while to react and said ecstatically, "Thank you! Thank you, John! Don't worry, I'm also one of the referees. I will definitely do it when the time comes."
High marks for you!
Also, I will definitely be able to pay off the remaining debt by next year at the latest.
I also hope you won’t reveal to the outside world that I owe money..."
Listening to Bagman's chatter, John waved his hand perfunctorily.
He doesn't care about those so-called scores.
As for what Bagman said about repaying the money next year, he thought it was all nonsense.
The reason why Bagman was forgiven the debt of one thousand galleons was entirely to show favor to Bagman.
This is actually similar to Moody’s ‘big stick, sweet date’ tactic.
Initially, Bagman was put under pressure with a huge debt, and then further attacked, deepening the pressure and causing him to feel a strong sense of disappointment and even despair.
Finally, extend some small favors.
This was enough to draw Bagman into his camp.
And this will be of great help to John in investigating the 'Nail' matter.
After continuing to chat with Bagman for a while, John returned to Hogwarts Castle with Bagman's gratitude and went straight to the library.
The fire dragon is an extremely dangerous creature.
In addition, the fairies were still watching them secretly.
John must formulate a complete battle plan to ensure his and Michelle's safety.
