Chapter 503 Dissuade
"Paul Carter, I'm from Malta." A white and thin boy stretched out his hand to Zhao Mai, "I'm glad to know you, Senior Mike."
"Good luck." Zhao Mai smiled and shook hands with him. Paul was not someone else, but the student who rushed into the teleportation array during the last round. Zhao Mai remembered that he suffered a huge pain at that time, and he seemed to have never seen this person in Atlantis.
So he looked at Dumbledore in the crowd, and the professor shook his head slightly, saying that he was unaware of it. It is said that Professor Dumbledore was fighting with the Ministry of Magic, hoping to join the Ministry of Magic referees who went to Atlanta. This position did come to him at the beginning, and he pushed it to principal Dippet. Later, due to physical reasons, Principal Dippet transferred this function to Witt Foggs as an action to support his campaign for Minister of Magic and to increase his popularity. It is conceivable how troublesome it would be to Dumbledore to take the position back.
So he failed and stood among the students and teachers to see everyone off again. Because of Dumbledore's action, Principal Dippet felt embarrassed, and the relationship between the two began to become tense. Principal Dippet was indignant, "Oh, you recommended me, I am very grateful. But as soon as I gave up the quota, you started to fight back. What does this mean?'
"This time I'm going to see the wizards from other countries. I'm really nervous!" Jie Bao from India is a person who can't rest. His brown face always has a smile, but he can't see any nervousness. He has a lot of ornaments around his neck. According to his introduction, these gods with different looks are here to bless him. "I will definitely win glory for the country!"
That's right. Malta and India are now both British colonies, and they are not wrong to regard themselves as Commonwealth people. The only awkward thing is Zhao Mai, a mysterious man from China who broke the tranquility of Hogwarts and gave the British Magic Department a headache.
Witt Foggs wore a long windbreaker and held a black cane with an ivory handle in his hand, believing that his wand was hidden inside. He was a proud pure-blooded wizard with light golden hair combed back meticulously, and a pair of light blue eyes on the bridge of the hooked nose always shone with the brilliance trying to see through other people's thoughts. He had no good feelings for the three contestants, but he would not do anything out of the public. He and a young reporter from the Daily Prophet, named Faraver, were entourages of the three contestants. The young reporter held a pencil and a notebook in his hand, but had not asked questions or interviews, and seemed not to care about his work. This was undoubtedly a strange team.
The phone vibrated and looked down. The message displayed was "Atlantis sent an invitation to receive the station and took four passengers from Hogwarts to Atlantis. The fee is expected to be 2 gold coins. Are you grabbing the order?" This time I went to Atlantis this time, it was not garbled, which was considered good news. In order to avoid further twists and turns, Zhao Mai ignored the order and put the phone back in his pocket.
The teleported light column lit up, and this time Paul Carter was inside the light column, so no one tried to rush in. Zhao Mai only had a few experiences being teleported, and after his strength grew, it seemed that it became increasingly difficult to teleport him. Recently, when he passed by the star gate, he felt obvious resistance, as if he resisted it with all his strength, the transmission process would be forcibly terminated. In particular, the star gate is transmitted by dismantling particles and then combining them. If Zhao Mai had not "nodded and agreed", let alone "The Che", he himself could not be teleported by him.
He was still worried that he would not be teleported, but found that he had arrived at the destination. In other words, Atlantis' teleportation mechanism is different from Star Gate, and it seems to be more "polite" and "harmless". Zhao Mai did not feel the impact of teleportation on himself, so what should be changed should be the overall spatial coordinates around him.
Everyone stopped on a circular platform half a basketball court, and they were stepping on a layer of hard glass. A large number of magic runes could be seen through the glass. Many characters were seen for the first time, and they completed the teleportation and gradually faded.
Below the platform is a long stone road, with a thin decorative painting spliced with mosaics in the middle, depicting the long-lasting war and glorious victory of "gods and men" and "sea monsters". At the end of the stone road is a brilliant city. The pointed spindle-shaped houses at both ends are of different sizes, completely unaffected by gravity. They are all floating in the air, changing positions constantly, with speeds of fast and slow, crisscrossing, looking messy, but they do not collide with each other at all. They generally move around a blue tower with a lower circle and pointed upper point, and the blue tower penetrates straight into the sky, nearly two thousand meters high.
Zhao Mai estimated that the thickest bottom of the tower must be as big as thirty football fields, and the thinnest top is only the tip of the needle. Continue to look upward, a transparent force field wraps the entire Atlantis, and the dark sea water is outside.
"The motto of Atlantis is: Magic is a double-edged sword. If you are not careful, it will pierce the bubble of our survival." The person who spoke was a lamp god, that is, the skin was completely blue, his lower body was hidden in the clouds and mist, floating and moving forward in the air, and he could realize his three wishes. "My name is Solam, the teacher of Atlantis. Welcome everyone from Hogwarts. Please follow me to the competition venue, and teleportation will be carried out here soon."
"Thank you." Witt Foggs raised his cane slightly, saying that he was paying homage. The blue Solam shook all over his body, and in a burst of lightning, another Solam was separated. The solam left the place, and the other Solam made a call and walked on the stone road leading to the city first.
Everyone followed him and looked around with curious eyes. Zhao Mai connected with the local natural force and found that it was quite harmonious. The natural force flowed in a very free state, not the rigid and artificially trimmed state like Hogwarts. The whole city was like living, exchanging energy and matter with the way of breathing and the marine environment that wrapped it.
Zhao Mai was about to explore the natural force, but Mr. Foggs leaned over. "Mac, do you have any expectations for this game?"
"Hmm? I think everyone who participated is going to win the final victory. This was already thought of when everyone put their name into the Goblet of Fire."
"Give up when you are sick, I can compensate you. As for the player who substitutes you, it is Faraver." Foggs's words were beyond Zhao Mai's expectations. He added: "This is for the sake of Hogwarts, and it is also very beneficial to you."
"This is impossible." Zhao Mai shook his head: "You made the wrong idea."
"Think about it. I know this competition will be very dangerous, and the final reward is not worth your risk. It's really better to agree." Foggs said: "You can go to Atlantis during this period and learn the magic here, which is much more interesting than participating in the competition. This competition ended up being a face-to-face battle. If it weren't for this, I wouldn't have done such persuasion."
Zhao Mai thought about it, then shook his head: "I understand that what you are telling the truth, but I still want to participate in the competition."
