Chapter 327: Low IQ Negotiator

"Dumb - Lido!"

When Hagrid put down the Ghublay Flame and said what he meant, the lazy and arrogant-looking giant Gougo's eyes lit up and he repeated the name.

Gugo didn't know English, but the name was a memorable name for him. Because the territory they are in now is what Dumbledore won for them back then.

For the remnants of the Giants, Dumbledore was an unforgettable man.

The giant Gogo looked at Hagrid and Madame Maxime, barely noticing Maca, who was also standing nearby. Then he shouted something in the crudely-sounding Giant's language.

Not long after, two big guys who looked a little old walked out of the huge crowd behind Maca, and they passed by Maca's group with heavy steps, standing on the left and right of the giant Gugo.

"Dumbledore, for Marcus Gugo, gifts?" One of the older giants asked in less proficient English.

Hagrid replied, and then introduced them to the torch that burned with the Ghublay Immortal Fire. And when the two old giants almost understood, they turned their heads and explained to their gurg.

At this time, in fact, the giants behind Maca had already come up behind him, and when they heard the two old giants explain the "eternal fire" clearly, almost the entire tribe became excited.

Even the giant Goccachus seemed pleased, and he sat up, grabbed the torch that Hagrid had planted on the ground, and held out his finger.

The blue-white flame was lifted by his fingers like a ribbon, but in the next moment, it regrouped back to the top of the torch.

As a result, even though Kakus let out a burst of joyful laughter, the thunderous sound immediately exploded in the ears of Maca and the other three, and even a slight vibration was felt under their feet.

Because the laughter was so loud that Maca couldn't help but grin.

Fire has always been a favorite thing of the Giants, and although they learned how to make fire from the wizards who hired them to fight in war as early as the Middle Ages, until then, their flames had been given by nature.

In their hearts, the importance of the flame is almost the same as that of their ancestors.

And when they learned to make fire, the flame gradually evolved into a kind of belief and obsession of theirs. The eternal flame that Hagrid sent was undoubtedly the most sacred gift.

What a beautiful thing that will not be extinguished! Although this flame is not the slightest bit of temperature to speak of.

Taking advantage of the laughter of the giant Gokakus, Hagrid wasted no time in speaking. Of course, he was mainly speaking to the two older giants......

"Albus Dumbledore said that tomorrow, the Messenger will bring another gift, and ask Gugo to speak with the Messenger."

With that, Hagrid, Madame Maxim, and Maca bowed, and planned to retreat first according to the original plan.

There's no way, that's all you have to do with the giants. Giants are very patient creatures, and if they talk too much, they will find it difficult to listen to you, and they will simply kill you.

It's their nature to say this, and even if Dumbledore comes in person, it won't change much.

However, the three of them thought that the gift was a smooth gesture, but there was an unexpected defection.

"Wait!"

Before they could take a few steps back, the old giant behind him stopped them with a word at the words of Kakusgugo.

When the three of them heard this, they had to take a beating and stood in place.

At this moment, Kakusgugo reluctantly looked at the torch in his hand, and then reinserted it on the ground in front of them under the puzzled gaze of Maca and the others.

"Kakusgugo said we had to say no."

The old giant who said this also stared at the torch with a reluctant look.

"Why?" Hagrid asked, surprised.

This time, without Kakus saying anything first, the old giant immediately replied, "The other wizards have given Gugo more, better gifts...... Reject Dumbledore! ”

As he spoke, he drew a circle on his chest to signal that they had received "so many" gifts. But after that, he reluctantly stared at the torch on the ground again.

While it did seem a little funny, Hagrid and Madame Maxime didn't laugh at all.

"Voldemort again?"

Maca thought of the almost inevitable answer in an instant.

To say that giants are all tendons and dead brains is absolutely true. Maca was certain that they were not denied low-hanging fruit gifts because of their loyalty to the agreement.

The reason for Kakus's refusal was most likely due to the fact that the messenger sent by Voldemort explicitly mentioned the phrase "accepting a gift is equivalent to rejecting Dumbledore's gift".

This would have been difficult for wizards and even Muggles to explain, but in the giant's completely unturned mind, it would only turn out like this.

Now, if Marcus doesn't accept Dumbledore's gift, he can't make any representations. Because in the idea of giants, a gift is equivalent to a hire.

This simple and crude equation is actually taught to medieval wizards with a lot of painstaking work.

"What should I do?"

Hagrid's understanding of giants is still relatively deep, especially after Dumbledore's reminder, he understands that the difficulty of communicating with giants is actually far beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

When he looked back at Madame Maxime and Marca, the giants around him were already a little impatient.

"I don't know what to do...... Is this a breakdown of negotiations? No, that's not the beginning yet! Madame Maxim frowned and said, "Why don't we leave with the fairy fire first?" ”

Almost moments before Maxim spoke, Hagrid suddenly felt a tightness in his legs, and then he found the whole world turned upside down.

He barely turned his head to look, and finally realized the reason—it was the giant who had been standing beside Kakus from the beginning, and was angrily lifting him upside down by his legs.

Even a man as big as Hagrid is as weak as a child next to a real giant.

"Oh whoa—"

The giant roared furiously at Hagrid, and then tried to throw him out, and Madame Maxim had already drawn her newly purchased wand.

In this moment of extraordinary urgency, Maca slapped Madame Maxim's hand, and then took a decisive step and raised the torch that had been planted in the ground again.

"Maca McLean!"

His shout had already been spelled with amplification, and the loud sound immediately exploded in the ears of every giant.

Of course, the reason why he only reported his name was that he didn't want to say anything specific.

After all, Hagrid was now in someone's hands, and he was about to be thrown out. In this instant, he didn't have time to say anything, and even if he did, most of the giants couldn't understand it, did he?

Maca did this just to get the giant's attention first.

In fact, he did succeed, and when his name rang in the giant's ears, the other party subconsciously stopped his movements and looked down at him.

Seeing that her act of stopping was effective, Maca said aloud: "Maca McLean, pay your respects to Kakusgugo. ”

This sentence is almost exactly the same as Hagrid's previous statement, the only difference is that he changed Dumbledore's name to himself, and that's it.

This is undoubtedly a stupid approach in terms of the concept of stealing. But to deal with these "stupid big guys" in front of you, this stupid sentence is enough to produce miraculous effects.

"Oh-"

When the two old giants beside Kakus heard this, their eyes lit up, as if they had heard some wise words, and they told Kakus Gugo beautifully.

You don't have to wait for Kakus to speak, you don't even have to look at Kakus's expression. When Maca saw the eyes of the two old giants light up, he knew that his "stupid plan" had completely succeeded.

If you want to say that the young giants are "stupid", then these two old giants can be said to be relatively not "stupid to the end".

Even a race with a low IQ like a giant, once it gets older and has more experience, it will actually become a little smarter.

This was something that came to mind more than once when Maca recalled the reluctance of the two old giants before her, who refused according to Kakus's decision.

Among the giants, Gugo's decisions must be obeyed, and unless other giants challenge them, they must still be listened to.

And the two old giants, although they obeyed, did not seem to be completely sure of Kakus's decision, which was enough to prove Maca's conjecture.

"Marga, Ryan, good!"

When the giant Gokakus himself changed the name of Maca, he immediately pulled the torch from the ground again and played with it.

"Marca McLean, tomorrow, bring gifts, talk to Kakusgugo."

Although it has gone through a lot of twists and turns that make people roll their eyes, today's goal has finally been achieved.

When the giant carrying Hagrid tossed him away, and looked enviously at the torch, Maca immediately finished speaking to the old giant, and then pulled Hagrid and Madame Maxime, who had not yet recovered, out of the valley.

……

"Maka, you're really there! That's how the giants were fooled! ”

The three of them returned to the back of the ridge, and Hagrid rubbed his old waist, which was almost broken, and praised the witty Maca with great excitement.

Even Madame Maxim, who has always paid attention to maintaining elegance, couldn't help but praise her at this time.

"Don't rejoice too soon, tomorrow is the real trouble!"

When the two took turns talking happily, Maca poured a basin of cold water on them.
