Harry Potter: Dark Alchemy - Chapter 463
c357 Rush to Egypt
Little did Wright know that Chang Chu, who was far away in Hogwarts, once again performed amazingly in the Quidditch match. He was the first to catch the Golden Snitch when Ravenclaw was slightly behind, and won the championship. game and became a major contributor to the Yingyuan team.
After all, in Wright’s impression, in the original book, Slytherin won the game that took place one week after the start of school. Although the victory was very close, they still won. And in the next match between Gryffindor and Ravenclaw, Harry drove the Firebolt and beat Ravenclaw to a pulp.
In other words, without the two variables of him and Chang Chu, it is estimated that the Ravenclaw team is about to suffer a tragic second consecutive defeat and become a tragic figure competing with Hufflepuff for the bottom spot.
But now…
Sirius had his memory wiped, and Harry did not receive a Firebolt as a gift for Christmas, nor did he follow Wood’s advice to buy a new broomstick. Even if Harry’s flying talent is very high, without a suitable broomstick, this talent cannot be fully utilized.
If Harry uses the school’s meteor broomstick to compete with Chang Chu’s Chuyue in the next game…
Wright could bet his entire fortune on Ravenclaw, if anyone would bet with him! Although he is not interested in Quidditch or anything like that.
In addition, Wright has more important things to do at the moment, which is to rush to Egypt to attend the long-awaited International Alchemy Conference!
…
Beauxbatons itself has no direct way to Paris.
Moreover, the distance between France and Egypt is separated by a continent, more than a thousand kilometers, and it is not a problem that can be solved by Apparition magic or a portkey.
Therefore, Wright and Fleur chose to use two door keys in succession.
Of course, both Wright and Fleur are capable of apparation magic. (As a sixth grade student at Beauxbatons, Fleur can be guessed that she has already taken the Apparition test. Hogwarts students also practice this course in their sixth grade, but they are required to be seventeen years old. or will turn seventeen)
It’s just that one of them only traveled between England and France, and the furthest they went was Albania (the distance between Austria and Hogwarts is closer than that of Albania); the other only stayed in France, to be precise, mainly only in France. The pink newcomer active in Beauxbatons has no experience of going abroad at all, so it is impossible to talk about using the Apparition magic to go to Egypt.
One of the more important reasons is that such long-distance and unfamiliar apparation is really difficult for a beginner like Furong, and the risk is too high, so it was reasonably ruled out.
Through the relationship between Madame Maxime and Nicoléme, Fleur and Wright successfully applied for a legal portkey to Greece from the French Ministry of Magic, and then received a letter from the Greek Ministry of Magic. Application letter for introduction to obtain the key to Egypt.
Since the distance between the Portkey Office and the Auror Office is quite far, and the personnel exchanges between the two offices are not that close, Wright, who once showed his face in front of a group of French elite Aurors, was not recognized. It actually saved a lot of effort.
Because at that time, no matter what, in front of a group of legitimate law enforcement officers, it was untenable to stand up for Villita who caused a huge disaster. This is why Wright immediately left the house after venting his anger. One of the reasons why the cemetery apparated away.
Of course, Wright has no regrets about this incident, but he just doesn’t want to face those law enforcement officers who did the right thing.
Beauxbatons grounds.
Wright and Fleur stood side by side in front of an old wooden barrel. Opposite them were Madame Maxime, the principal of Beauxbatons, and little Gabrielle.
“Sister…” Gabrielle grabbed Madam Maxime’s trouser legs with her little hands (this was the only way due to the height restriction), and looked at Fleur who was about to leave with tears in her eyes.
Wright was a little bit disgusted. He thought that after getting along with him for half a year, he had already developed a good enough relationship with this cute little silver-haired boy. But from now on, Gabrielle didn’t even look at him directly. , not even a small look.
Is she worthy of the ice crystal horse that Wright made so carefully before?
“Gabriel…” Fleur also looked at Gabrielle with reluctance. This was her first time leaving France, and more importantly, this would be her first time away from Gabrielle for a long time.
While the two sisters looked at each other affectionately, Madame Maxime was silently looking at Wright, Mr. Nicoléme’s disciple.
Although Madame Maxime has a “big frame”, she is actually an out-and-out beauty.
She has a very handsome face, a pair of big, dark, watery eyes, and a strong nose. The dark brown hair was combed obediently on the back of her head and twisted into a shiny hairdo at the base of her neck. She was wrapped in an olive satin dress from head to toe, and there were many luxurious gemstone rings around her neck and fingers.
Wright believed that if Madame Maxime were smaller—not too much, just as tall as Dumbledore—then she would have a legion of suitors.
“Lette Pass,” Madame Maxime said in her low, distinctive voice, “I wish you all the best on your trip.”
“Thank you for your blessing, Ms. Maxim.” Wright put his right hand on his chest, lowered his head, and gave a slight salute.
“Madam, then we are leaving. The time for the portkey is coming soon.” Fleur kissed Gabrielle’s forehead one last time and said to Madame Maxime with a red nose.
Madame Maxime nodded gently.
Wright held Fleur’s wrist, and finally nodded to Madame Maxime and Gabrielle, and then together with Fleur, they held the rough wooden handle of the barrel with their other hand.
It was too late, but it was too late. There seemed to be a hook behind Wright’s belly button, and it jerked forward with irresistible momentum.
Wright couldn’t stand firmly, so he lifted his feet off the ground and flew up.
He could feel Fleur’s wrist still being held in his palm, and her shoulder colliding with his, but other than that, he couldn’t feel anything else.
Wright and Fleur flew forward like a gust of wind, surrounded by a gleaming wormhole scene, and then…
Wright landed forcefully on the ground, grabbing the stumbling Fleur at the same time to prevent her from falling to the ground in an extremely inelegant way.
At this time, they had arrived at the Portkey Exclusive Hall of the Greek Ministry of Magic. The wooden barrel doorkey that had brought them with them had lost its magic power and was falling randomly at their feet.
After a little repair, Wright and Fleur took the letter to the office here. After getting the new door key, they immediately rushed to Egypt.
“At 11:18, from Beauxbatons, France, via the Ministry of Magic in Greece.” Only one voice was heard saying.
