Another Professor Snape? The Way To Trick The Goblet Of Fire!

When they saw the figure walking in from the door, the faces of the two hiding in the dark became strange.

Lucas drew out his wand and wrote down a few absolute rules using the spell text.

When the magic took effect, he said with a smile.

"Professor, it seems that you were a little careless and you actually let someone get your hair."

"Barty Crouch Jr!"

The icy tone conveyed Professor Snape's level of anger.

If it weren't for the fear of scaring the imposter away, it's probable that he would have already rushed forward to strangle the bastard.

"Don't be angry, I guess Crouch Jr. intends to blame Igor Karkaroff, because he probably didn't get his hair."

"So he can only use your identity to invite the other party here. Karkaroff's identity is not a secret, and it is well known that he betrayed Voldemort."

"He must be planning to take advantage of this incident to punish the traitor."

Lucas' reassurance didn't help, no one wants to see someone else behaving like themselves and using their identity.

This incident also reminded Lucas.

Although Polyjuice Potion can only be used for human transformation, elves are still humanoid beings.

He wasn't sure if Polyjuice Potion could make someone look like himself.

Even if it doesn't work, those who use Polyjuice Potion will also be able to detect that something is wrong with Lucas.

"Severus, what did you call me for?"

Karkaroff looked around sneakily, probably because he was afraid of being ambushed or something.

The fake Snape stepped forward, showing off his left arm.

"You can also see it, right? He's coming back soon."

Looking at the Dark Mark that has been gradually darkening the past few weeks, a horrified look appeared on Karkaroff's face.

It was clear he was terrified of the master he betrayed returning.

"Impossible, he, hasn't he already..."

"Don't lie to yourself, Karkaroff, see your left arm, you can't fail to notice that the color of the Dark Mark is gradually getting darker."

"You should understand that this mark will only appear like this if his power starts to recover."

Karkaroff swallowed, the fake Snape in front of him seemed to be his only lifeline.

"Severus, you must have something, right? Or what does Dumbledore have?"

"Heh~!" A familiar sneer came.

Lucas looked strangely at Professor Snape beside him.

"Professor, don't you think that Crouch Jr. is very good at imitating you? His imitation of Mad-Eye is also really good. I feel like he lost his calling by not becoming an actor, his performance is worthy of an Oscar."

"What is an Oscar?"

Lucas forgot that the old bat was addicted to potions and Lily Evans so he didn't care about Muggle affairs.

"It's nothing, it's just an award for actors."

"Hmph~!" The conversation started with a sneer and ended with a cold snort.

The two looked back at the two who were next to the Goblet of Fire.

"Dumbledore? He was thinking about how to arrange one more contestant for Hogwarts at the moment, and he doesn't have much free time to think about it."

"What?" Karkaroff was very surprised.

"He's cheating!"

Seeing his angry expression, the fake Snape said slowly: "Do you still have time to think about this now? But don't worry, at least until the end of the Triwizard Tournament, the Dark Lord will not come back."

Karkaroff let out a long breath.

That's fine as well, as long as he escaped here before Voldemort came back, he shouldn't have any major problems.

"Severus, thank you so much this time."

The two then talked about some of the past for about half an hour. Then Karkaroff just left the great hall.

Not long after he left, Fake Snape walked up to the Goblet of Fire.

"Confundo!"

A blinding light was released from the tip of the wand and the blue-white flame in the Goblet of Fire began to swing from side to side, as if it would go out at any moment.

It didn't take long before the flame suddenly turned red. Then it turned back into blue and White.

Everything was done in an instant. Then Fake Snape retracted his wand and took out two parchments from his pocket.

Watching the parchments disappear into the Goblet of Fire, he showed a crazy smile, then turned and walked out.

Lucas and the real Snape waited for another ten minutes before approaching the Goblet of Fire.

Seeing Lucas move through the age line without a hindrance, there was a flash of surprise in Snape's eyes.

But Lucas just smiled and didn't give an explanation.

In fact, the reason is quite simple.

He has already become a mythical creature, and of course the magic Dumbledore put on for normal wizards had no effect on him.

Circling around the Goblet of Fire twice, Lucas nodded and said, "Sure enough, it's exactly what I guessed."

"Would you be so kind as to explain further?"

Seeing Professor Snape's puzzled eyes, Lucas stared at the Goblet of Fire and said, "The Goblet of Fire is a powerful magical artifact, and it's not easy to deceive it."

"Barty Crouch Jr. is really not weak, he is at least at the level of an elite Auror."

Snape looked at the boy beside him with cold eyes.

"Mr. Grindelwald, I thought you would explain how Crouch Jr. got the Goblet of Fire to choose Mr. Potter."

"I didn't expect you to be praising the strength of the enemy. Why don't I go and just catch him so the two of you can have a good exchange."

"I think Azkaban is a good place, very suitable for the two of you."

Lucas looked beside him helplessly.

"Professor, don't worry."

"It's actually very simple, just make the Goblet of Fire think that there are more than three schools participating in the competition."

Lucas raised his wand as he spoke.

After a while of messing around, the two pieces of parchment that Crouch had thrown just now appeared in his palm.

"Look at the handwriting, he must have taken them from some assignment so they would have our magical signature. He just had to make the Goblet believe that we belong to the extra two schools and as the only names of each extra school we will definitely be selected to participate."

Snape took the two parchments and sure enough, just as Lucas said, it was indeed Lucas' and Harry's handwriting.

"However, his magic power is still a little weaker. I'm afraid that his confusion spell won't last until tomorrow night."

With that said, Lucas took out his wand and his powerful magic was instantly released.

"Confundo!"

His powerful spell suppressed the flames in the cup.

The originally turbulent flame finally became the size of a candle, hiding in the depths of the goblet and shaking slightly.

Professor Snape looked at the boy beside him in surprise.

Quasi-legendary!

He didn't expect his student to grow to such an extent this fast.

He, as the Professor, was already left far behind.

"Mr. Grindelwald really hides himself deeply."

"I wasn't hiding it, it was just a fluke that my magic increased a lot during the summer vacation."

Lucas withdrew his wand, and the blue and white flames were revived, re-emerging from the depth of the cup.

"That's no problem, whether it's Harry or me, we will definitely be selected."

Hearing Lucas mention Harry Potter, Snape sneered and turned around to leave.

By the time Lucas returned to the Slytherin common room, it was not far from midnight.

After taking a shower, he was about to go to bed when the system beeped in his ears.

[Ding, the holiday special platinum prize pool is open for a limited time, and the opening time will last until twelve o'clock at noon, please spend your points to your heart's content.]

Lucas sat up in bed with a jerk.

The system actually opened the special prize pool for Halloween in advance.

"System, turn all my achievement points into draws!"

[Ding, the host has a total of 12151 achievement points. The platinum prize pool requires 200 achievement points for each draw. The host can draw a total of 60 times. Would you like to start?]

"Yes!"

His voice just fell and a dazzling light appeared in front of his eyes.

Lucas closed his eyes slightly, listening to the pleasant sound of receiving prizes coming from his ears.

[Ding, this lottery draw is over, and a total of 31 bronze rewards, 19 silver rewards, 8 gold rewards, and 2 platinum rewards have been obtained.]

"2 platinum rewards? Am I so lucky? Or does Rowena's lucky charm really work?"

Lucas had been to Rowena's library before and he really managed to find an ancient spell—the lucky charm.

It is said to bring good luck and has been long lost to history.

Lucas didn't dare to use it on himself, but seeing that it could be applied to items, he used it on Slytherin's locket.

Taking out the locket to see that the radiance on it is still the same as before.

"It doesn't matter what the reason is, let's see what the reward is first!"

[Ding, this lottery draw is over, and the 31 bronze rewards are as follows: Gold Galleon*11, total 1321; Halloween limited wizard hat*3; Halloween limited costume*2; Horror jack-o-lantern*5; Grindelwald Halloween autographed photo* 2;Duke Bee Halloween limited candy*8]

Seeing the Bronze rewards Lucas nodded in satisfaction.

Very good, it is very stable, and the rewards are still useless! (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻!!!

His gaze then turned to the remaining rewards. Hopefully they can bring him some surprises.
