Chapter 48 - Chapter 188 The grand Quidditch event, the Death Eaters attack

The twins Weasley brought Harry to the Burrow, and the Weasleys were already ready to go, waiting at the door.

Ginny saw Harry and waved to him excitedly. Ronald stood bleary-eyed and greeted Harry as well.

Harry also waved to them in response.

Seeing Harry beckoning, Ginny just thought he was responding to her, and her eyes narrowed with laughter.

"Okay kids, hurry up and catch up, it's time for us to go - time."

After seeing Harry, Arthur Weasley greeted the family and Harry to the forest not far away.

In the forest, Arthur's colleague Amos Diggory waits here with his son Cedric.

They're going with the Weasleys.

Passing through the small forest, they came to a small hill, and on one of the highest hills stood a broken boot.

The shoe was a door key to the site of the Quidditch World Cup match.

"Everyone, grab your shoes, we'll be leaving soon," Arthur said.

"What is this?" Harry asked suspiciously.

At the same time as he asked the question, the movements of his hands did not stop, and according to Arthur's instructions, he grabbed the boots.

Ronald yawned beside him and said in a lazy tone: "The door key, it can transport us to the designated place... ah!

Before the words fell, the boots began to rotate with them, and finally flew directly.

Ronald finally woke up under the influence of centrifugal force, and Harry experienced the thrill of a spiral ascending into the sky.

After a while, they landed on the edge of a coast.

This is the kind of fault coast without sandy beaches, with straight coastlines and steep sea cliffs.

Harry and the others climbed up from the ground in embarrassment, climbed a hillside, and arrived at their destination.

There are tents scattered all over the hillside.

Wizards from different countries gather here for this four-yearly grand event.

Not far away is the stadium where the Quidditch World Cup matches are played.

Since the International Statute of Secrecy came into effect, the Quidditch World Cup has been described as a "nightmare" for organizers.

Because keeping out of the sight of Muggles and accommodating a large number of wizards from all over the world is not an easy task.

Therefore, organizing a Quidditch World Cup has become the most difficult and thankless task recognized by the Ministry of Magic of various countries.

The task of hosting the Quidditch World Cup this time falls on the head of the British Ministry of Magic, and more than 500 staff members of the British Ministry of Magic have been busy for a whole year.

They dug a big hole in this coastal barren mountain and built a stadium that could accommodate 100,000 people.

The scene in front of him made Harry a little dazed.

The flags of different countries were hung in front of the tents, and the faces of the wizards from all countries were full of smiles.

A wizard who has just arrived, waving his wand, is setting up a tent.

Some set up a set of tables and chairs in front of the tent and drank morning tea leisurely.

Some wizards perform some very ornamental little magic, attracting the attention of the little wizards.

If Zicomo saw this scene, he would definitely despise the Ministry of Magic for not making money. Anyone who sets up a stall here and sells some British specialties and local specialties can make a lot of money.

"Come on, kids."

Arthur beckoned Harry and they followed in his footsteps and came to an unremarkable tent.

As an employee of the Ministry of Magic, he had already arrived ahead of time to set up the tent.

"Welcome to our sweet home."

Arthur pulled up the tent curtain, and the Weasleys filed in.

Harry walked in at the end, surprised by the space inside the tent. This was also the first time he had seen a tent that had cast the Traceless Stretching Charm.

"I love magic," Harry sighed.

After packing up, Harry and the Weasleys rested in the tent. The Quidditch World Cup doesn't start until the evening.

The time soon came to the evening, and spectators from all over the world began to enter the arena.

Said to be a gymnasium capable of accommodating 100,000 spectators, in fact, a large pit was dug in the mountain, surrounded by layers of iron shelves, and only the VIP seats were sheltered from the wind and rain.

If it rains, ordinary spectators can only watch the game in the wind and rain.

But it's not a big deal for these spectators, after all, even the rain and snow can't dampen their enthusiasm.

Although the temporarily built gymnasium is relatively simple, its actual completion is very high, not to mention the fact that it can accommodate 100,000 people is a very spectacular thing.

Harry followed behind Arthur, looking at the lively arena and sighing: "It's a pity that Zicomo didn't come and missed such a spectacular scene.

"I'm sure the boss won't like this noisy environment. What's more, the boss is traveling to the ancient country of the East, maybe what he sees is even more spectacular than the one in front of him."

George patted Harry on the shoulder and said, "Don't be emotional, just follow."

The position Arthur chose was the top of the entire stadium, where the view was wide and the whole stadium could be seen.

Ronald and Arthur walked in front, and through the gaps in these iron frames could vaguely see the bottom layer below.

Ronald asked his father, "Merlin's beard! Dad, how tall is this here?"

"You'll be the first to know if it rains, so to speak."

It was not his father Arthur who answered Ronald, but the Malfoys passing by on the lower floor.

"And my father and I could sit in the minister's box, protected from the wind and rain. It was an invitation from Cornelius Fudge himself.95

Draco followed Lucius and said in a showy tone.

Lucius turned back and reminded: "Don't show off, Draco. It's no use telling these people. 35

Draco nodded, actually he didn't want to show off, but he couldn't help but want to show his superiority in front of Harry.

Harry didn't want to pay any attention to the Malfoys and turned away.

However, Lucius hooked Harry's feet with the scepter in his hand, and said meaningfully: "I hope you can have fun in time, while you are still angry. 99

Having said that, Lucius let go of Harry and turned to leave.

Harry ignored Lucius' unreasonable remarks and turned back to the wonderful game of the Quidditch World Cup.

The game is the 422nd Quidditch World Cup final, the two sides participating are Ireland and Bulgaria.

··

The Irish team wears a green shirt with their names rusted on their backs with silver thread. They all ride Firebolts, and the Leprechauns are their team mascots.

However, no one paid too much attention to them, the audience's eyes were focused on the Bulgarian team.

Because they not only have star player Viktor Klum, but their team's mascot is a magical animal like Veela.

As soon as Veela appeared, she stunned all the men present.

Their skin is as bright and soft as the moon, and their hair is scattered behind their heads without wind, and their magical charm attracts men to go crazy for them.

Harry and the others were also attracted by the Veela, and if it wasn't for Ginny's pull, he might have jumped over the railing at this time.

Fortunately, the mascot's playing time was short, and the Veela just walked around the field and left.

Otherwise, Ronald, who was not stopped, might have jumped off at this time.

When Ronald woke up, he found that he had stepped over the railing with one leg and nearly jumped off the top of the gym.

0...

The Quidditch match was fantastic and ended with Krum catching the Snitch.

But it was the Irish team that won.

Yes, Quidditch matches are so weird. Regardless of the score, the game normally ends by catching the Snitch.

Seekers who catch the Snitch can score 150 points and end the game.

Before Krum caught the Snitch, however, the Irish had won points against Bulgaria with a 10-point bludger.

But that didn't stop everyone from cheering for Krum.

It was late at night after the game, but everyone was still awake, Harry and the Weasley family were cheering for the two teams tonight.

As an adult, Arthur was relatively calm, and did not participate in it, but watched the group of children with a smile on his face.

Suddenly, Arthur heard the cheering outside turn into a panicked cry.

He went outside the tent to check the situation and found that people were running away.

Arthur noticed that something was wrong, turned back to the tent and greeted: "Okay, don't make trouble. There seems to be an accident outside, we have to get out of here and leave quickly.

Everyone ignored their luggage and ran out of the tent one after another.

As soon as Harry stepped out of the tent, he heard a panicked shout: "Run! It's Death Eaters!

Looking up, I saw a group of people wearing pointed hats, cloaks and horror masks, holding torches in one hand and waving wands in the other, setting fires everywhere and causing chaos.

If Zicomo saw them, he would be amused.

Because they are too similar to the FFF regiment in terms of dress and behavior.

Speaking of the Ministry of Magic is also incompetent, or Fudge is incompetent enough.

There are more than 500 people in the Ministry of Magic, holding such a big event, not even a security staff is arranged.

Let these dozens of Death Eaters make trouble here unscrupulously.

These wizards are also used to being at ease, not even a single one who stood up to organize a confrontation with the Death Eaters, they all fled in a panic.
