Chapter 989: 971： It's a business

"It should be here."

Albert looked up at the coffee shop's sign, and then looked down at the watch on his wrist. After confirming that there was no danger around him, he took a suitcase and pushed the door into the Muggle shop in front of him. His eyes swept over the customers in the coffee shop. , landed on the middle-aged man who was drinking coffee in the corner. He raised his foot and walked towards him, greeting him in fluent French.

"I hope I didn't make you wait too long."

"I've been waiting for half an hour."

"I'm sorry for the delay on the way."

If the shopkeeper at the counter understood French, he would have exposed this **** who had only been here for five minutes, but unfortunately he doesn't understand French.

The seemingly ordinary conversation is actually a pair of passwords.

After all, both of them have drunk compound potions, so naturally they can't recognize each other's identity, so they can only use the password to connect to each other.

This ordinary conversation is like meeting two friends, and no one will doubt their identities.

After the conversation, the two exchanged business cards with each other, smiled and shook hands, and then paid the money and left under the stunned eyes of the boss.

"The coffee here sucks," Bud whispered.

"Maybe, you should order a cup of hot cocoa." Albert teased with a smile.

"I tried it, but the boss told me that hot cocoa is not sold here." Bud looked helpless.

"He didn't kick you out?"

Albert's face twitched slightly, not knowing what expression he should show.

"Are you really going to go to the competition?"

The two turned a corner and walked towards the outskirts of the city.

Albert heard something in the other party's words, raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, "Is there any problem?"

"The first two days, I got some bad news." Bud lowered his voice and said, "Your situation doesn't seem to be very good. I am worried that there will be changes during the game. Although there will be many Aurors around, if they If you want to be unfavorable to you, some are…”

"Don't worry, I just received news that someone is planning to come over to watch the game." Albert said meaningfully: "The principal and the group of people around him, so I don't think anyone from the other side will appear. The problem. After all, he himself still has a strong deterrent effect. Moreover, I also secretly placed people on their side. Even if there is any plan, I can know it at the first time, at most, it may be during the game. Kind of messy."

"He didn't stay at school and came to watch the game?" After hearing the news, Bud did not breathe a sigh of relief, but frowned.

"Is something wrong?" Albert asked suspiciously.

"I'm worried that he will pull you into the water." Bud reminded, "that guy is being watched every move now, and... In short, you have to pay attention to yourself, although that guy is a good person, sometimes in order to achieve certain For the purpose, he doesn't mind sacrifice, I think you should know something that his club often says."

"Some things are worth dying for." Albert murmured softly.

Bud was very helpless. He asked Albert to participate in the International Wizarding Duel Tournament, nothing more than to let the other party gain some reputation.

Reputation is actually quite useful to Albert, especially as a Muggle wizard. If Smith's surname is used externally...that's obviously impossible...so Albert needs to use countless halos to shut up other people, and he It just so happens to have that ability.

Who knew that Voldemort suddenly returned and was eyeing Albert.

After the news of the appearance of the Dark Mark in France spread, although Bard didn't get much news, he wanted to know that it had something to do with Albert. Who told him to just go to Nikolai Village to visit Nicole Lemay, Bud even suspected that the Dark Mark was put by Albert, and only he could come up with this kind of trickery.

"Okay, I'll take you to a temporary residence first, and give up the game when necessary." Bud continued to exhort, "Your safety is more important than anything else, you have to promise me."

"I will." Albert reassured with a smile, "I never do anything I'm not sure about."

Bud's safe house, located outside Madrid, is large but looks quite old.

At first, Bud took a lot of thought to buy the place, and used the Faithful Charm on the house to turn it into a safe house.

As for the use, I know everything.

I know that there are not many people here, and usually no one will come.

After entering the house, several people were stunned by the scene inside, it looked like a haunted house, and the roof was damaged due to disrepair.

"How long have you been here?"

Albert blankly used his wand to ditch the cobwebs at the top of his head and turned his head to ask Bud.

"About thirty years." Bud said embarrassedly, "You know, it's normal for some things to become like this without maintenance, and you don't live here anyway."

"I wouldn't be surprised if a ghost suddenly appeared here," Katrina grumbled.

Isobel stared at the well-preserved portraits of handsome men and women on the walls of the hall, and looked at the old man in front of her thoughtfully. She seemed to have guessed the purpose of this place.

"Need Kara clean up?" the house-elf asked sharply.

"No, you have other tasks." Albert scanned the portrait and asked the old man in front of him, "Will these pictures be placed here?"

"You don't live inside anyway, so there shouldn't be any problems in this regard." Bud coughed lightly and changed the subject, "No need, just let them stay here."

Bud seemed to change the subject and started talking to Albert about the registration method and precautions for the International Wizarding Duel Competition.

"Are you going to continue betting?" Albert asked suddenly.

"That's not a good idea."

Bud didn't want to bet very much, because he didn't want to put any pressure on Albert, so as not to cause him to be tied at a critical moment and unable to leave the first time when he was in danger.

"I saw my duel championship trophy in the crystal ball," Albert hinted.

"This should be considered cheating!"

Katrina understood the conversation between the two and couldn't help but say with wide eyes.

"It's called investing in yourself," Albert corrected.

"No wonder you are so rich." Katrina glanced at Isobel secretly, she thought Isobel probably knew these things.

"If you want to invest in me, I don't mind." Albert said with a smile, "If you have money, everyone will make it together."

Gu </span> "Forget it." Katrina shook her head.

"Then let's invest ten Galleons in you." Isobel glanced at his sister, reported a number casually, took out a handful of Galleons from his pocket and handed it to Albert.

"Of course there's no problem." Albert looked at Bud, who obviously didn't care, and said with a smile, "You see a share, you see a share, but if you lose money, don't blame me."

Bud didn't mind even more. Even if he gave the sisters some pocket money, it wasn't much anyway. It was the most important thing for everyone to be happy.

Before leaving, Bud did not forget to remind: "In short, pay attention to safety, this is more important than anything else."

"Your relationship is really good." Katrina was surprised by the relationship between the two, and if she didn't know, she thought Bud was Albert's grandfather.

After Albert settled down temporarily, he went to the registration office of the Spanish Ministry of Magic to sign up for the International Wizarding Duel Competition. The registration process was almost the same as what Bud said. There is a special area for players to register, in order to cope with wizards from all over the world. , Next to the wizard who was in charge of registration, there was a witch who was in charge of translation. Albert found that the other party was an acquaintance.

"Long time no see, Lady Diana?" Albert greeted the witch with a smile.

"Are you really planning to participate in the International Wizarding Duel Competition?" Diana asked Albert as she looked up and down and raised her eyebrows slightly.

"Yes, I'm going to try it." Albert nodded.

"You know each other?"

Another wizard looked at Albert and raised his eyebrows slightly.

"I know." Diana said.

"I suggest you persuade him to give up the competition." The wizard reminded in a low voice, "You should be aware of the cruelty of the duel competition, lest your friend be injured."

Unlike the previous dueling competitions, today's dueling competitions are more dangerous, and throwing black magic at each other is a common thing.

Moreover, Albert is young and obviously does not know the dangers of the world. Some guys will even do some extreme things in order to get the prize money of the championship.

"It's useless, and don't underestimate that guy." Diana obviously didn't think she could convince Albert. She is also very aware of Albert's strength, because some unscrupulous old guy plans to buy this and win the final championship.

I've only seen this kind of **** operation not long ago.

If you are not sure, the other party will obviously not do that.

Moreover, as far as she knew, the person in front of him was the champion of the Triwizard Tournament. Not long ago, he defeated a fire dragon by himself, which was far more ruthless than most players.

Diana patiently informed Albert about the rules of the International Wizarding Duel Competition, and reminded him not to use the Unforgivable Curse, not to try to kill an opponent, especially after the opponent surrendered, lost the ability to continue fighting, or after the referee pronounced the verdict. Continue to attack or you will be disqualified.

In the end, Albert also signed a magic contract to prove that he took the initiative to participate in the competition, and if he died accidentally, it had nothing to do with the competition.

As for the inability to use black magic, it naturally does not exist, and there will be black wizards to participate in each session.

That's right, the dark wizard.

This is also the reason why the wizard just wanted him not to participate, because Albert does look like a fledgling rookie, and if he participates, he can only serve as cannon fodder.

It is worth mentioning that the Spanish Ministry of Magic did not build a large stadium like the British Ministry of Magic, but borrowed the Muggle venue, and the duel competition was held on a large football field on the outskirts of Muggles, which could accommodate tens of thousands of people. audience.

Wizards would use spells to expel Muggles on a large scale around football fields, and by the way, they would use enchantments to cover the entire field to ensure that Muggles would not notice the abnormality of the field.

Of course, in order to avoid attracting Muggle attention, the International Wizarding Tournament will be played at night.

After being informed of the venue of the duel competition, Albert, with the help of Diana, bought three-day tickets for three days. He felt like watching the Quidditch World Cup, and the tickets for the duel competition were very expensive. It cost a few hundred Galleons in total!

However, Albert didn't care about Garen's problem, anyway, Bud had already asked someone to help make a bet.

As long as someone dares to open a bet, he dares to bet, who made Albert predict that he will win the world trophy!

It's just that there aren't many opportunities for this.

With the lessons learned from the last time, if you do it again, 80% of the time will be blacklisted by the gambling game.

…

Returning to the makeshift home, Albert told the McDoug sisters about the duel competition.

"Why do they choose to use Muggle buildings, are they really not worried about causing any trouble?" Katrina asked in confusion.

"Because it's cheap, and you can make a lot of money, it costs money and time to set up a stage yourself. Why do you think the Spanish Ministry of Magic is serious about running the duel competition and offering high prize money to the champion?"

The duel between two powerful wizards is very rare in the magical world, so many people are willing to pay to watch the game, especially the last day of the game, not only the price of the tickets is terrifyingly expensive, but also hard to get a ticket, there is no way, Who makes watching a wizard duel more exciting than watching a Quidditch match.

Albert was able to buy it entirely because he was a player, and the tournament party provided convenience for the players.

The duel competition lasted for three days in total and implemented a one-round elimination system.

It is said that there will be hundreds of wizards participating, and each person needs to play three games on the first day to select the top 64.

Then, proceed to the next round of screening.

The huge amount of championship prize money makes every duel competition quite tragic, and it also attracts a large number of audiences. The most funny thing is that the Spanish Ministry of Magic actually allows dark wizards to participate, and these dark wizards are also one of the highlights of the duel competition.

Of course, the participating dark wizards can't make trouble on the playing field, otherwise the Aurors will send them to **** at any time.

Although many wizards have protested against this, in order to make the game more attractive, in order to fill their wallets, the regulations that dark wizards are allowed to participate in the competition have never been deleted. After all, dark wizards are also a big selling point. Especially when a powerful wizard defeats the dark wizard, the scene is always very lively. The most important thing is that there are actually very few cases of the dark wizard winning the duel championship, because in regular competitions, some of their conspiracy methods cannot Use, once you lose and attack others, the Auror who maintains the order has the right to kill them on the spot. This kind of thing has happened before, but it happened a few times, and there are many dark wizards who have died. No black wizard dares to do this. Done.

There is no way, the life of the dark wizard is also life. Most of the people who will come to participate in the competition are seeking money.

There are really people with abnormal brains, and the Aurors who are in charge of patrols around them will give them a good look, and they also offer a reward for the head of the other party. This is an open secret.

As for where did the Aurors come from?

The number of Aurors in Spain is not enough, so naturally they can borrow them from other countries. Some Aurors in France and Germany are willing to accept the invitation to come and help.

As long as you are willing to come and help, there is a lot of extra income.

Who wouldn't want to?
