Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Fire Dragon
A few days later, Charlie Weasley and his colleagues arrived at Hogwarts in England with eleven dragons. Hagrid helped them find a clearing in the Forbidden Forest.
The creatures in the Forbidden Forest were a little dissatisfied with this, but in the face of the eleven fire dragons, even if they were all domesticated, it was enough for all the creatures to restrain their emotions.
Given that this incident involved two people: Ron and Hagrid, the first Hogwarts and Bubbaston houses knew that the first project might be related to the fire dragon - love really makes people idiots, and Hagrid's already low IQ in front of Madame Maxim directly became negative.
However, this advantage only lasted for a day and a half, less than two days.
Since the other three academies dared to come all the way to participate in the competition, they must have been prepared for all kinds of news infiltration. There is no shortage of students at the level of inquiring about the students. In addition, several principals and faculty members are also extremely concerned about these matters. So with more than a week to go before the competition, eleven warriors from five academies actually knew that the project was going to be related to dragons!
However, most people are just caught up in the entanglement of Harry and the others before. Trying to deal with a dragon is also an impossible task for the vast majority of excellent adult wizards. And if it's a juvenile mage, it's extremely difficult to even want to deal with it! It's Daphany, in fact, she already has a draft. After all, she knows what the real project is about, and she knows how to deal with it. And even if it's different from the original project, if you can't do it yourself, no one will be able to do it.
Compared to Harry, who was really struggling with the project, and Daphany, who was pretending to be struggling, Ron and Draco were more interested in other things, such as the type of dragon.
As the Weasleys' financial situation improved, Ron's clothes were no longer as old as they used to be. As a result, there was no longer the same fierce desire for mutual spraying between him and Draco. It's definitely not friendly, but it's already possible to communicate normally. Especially since the two actually have a common language......
First of all, both of them love Quidditch and are both very adored of Krum.
Secondly, both love dragons. Ron likes it because his brother raised dragons and often knows some interesting anecdotes about dragons. Draco, on the other hand, is purely the love of the essence of the soul.
At this time, the two chatted passionately about the dragon.
There are seven varieties of the eleven dragons brought by Charlie and his colleagues: 2 Hungarian tree bees, 1 Ukrainian iron belly, 1 Chinese fireball dragon, 3 Welsh green dragons (including 1 black dragon from the Hechdiri Islands), 2 Peruvian fangs, and 2 Swedish short-nosed dragons.
"It's interesting that there are two Hungarian tree hornet dragons." Three broomsticks, Draco looked at the pale Harry and Angelina with a strange smile. On the table in front of them spread out the Encyclopedia of Fire Dragons. This book is rare these days, and it was sent to Draco's family.
"The Hungarian wasp is indeed too fierce, whoever draws this will be out of luck!" Daphany said with a grin.
"The Ukrainian iron belly is not easy to deal with, the largest fire dragon!" Ron had a different opinion.
"Although the Ukrainian iron belly is large, its temperament is relatively less irritable among the fire dragons!" Hermione flipped through the pages and said, "The books say that Iron Belly generally eats fish and doesn't attack mammals very much. Therefore, it is the fire dragon that is obviously the largest but the last to be discovered. ”
"Granger is right, the black dragon of the Hesidirid Islands is a little more dangerous than the iron belly. Although the black dragon belongs to the same clan as the green dragon, its personality is much more violent, and its body size is slightly larger! Draco said in Hermione's rare voice, "It's a pity that there is no California Black Ankylosaurus, that thing is the most interesting thing...... "Said and winked at Daphne.
"Those who draw the green dragon will make a lot of money, and this is the easiest thing to deal with. Why don't they all bring the same dragons? Doesn't that seem very unfair? Draco concluded, looking at Ron in a puzzled tone.
"Well, I asked Charlie too," Ron was obviously prepared for the question, "This time it's all adult female fire dragons, and it's also hatching fire dragons." There is only so much in the Dragon Taming Base. ”
"A female dragon in the hatching period?" Draco was a little confused: "That's when the fire dragon is at its fiercest!" ”
Most species of fire dragons are females and larger than males. Although females are not as aggressive as males, this definitely does not include the incubation period. At this time, the female dragon is extremely aggressive, and it is the most dangerous moment for the fire dragon.
"That's true." Daphany nodded knowingly.
"Hmm......" Harry seemed to struggle for a while before he said, "I told Sirius about the dragon, and he gave me an analysis of the content of the project...... "Wonderful book."
"Tell me about it." Angelina asked with interest. Although she has two best friends by her side, the two girls are good at playing Quidditch, but their magic level can only be said to be unusual. On the contrary, the strength of the Weasley twins is still among the best among the students. However, if it is used in Warrior-level projects, it is debatable.
Blake said that since the organizing committee has selected the project, it is believed that it is possible for the students to complete the project. It's more of an idea than a powerful magic that is needed! Harry whispered, "He also told me about a spell that might work for the dragon - the Eye Curse!" ”
"Eye curse? It's a good spell indeed. Daphany touched her chin and said pretendly.
"Eye curse? Is it easy to use? Is this just a little magic? Pansy asked, confused.
"The scale magic resistance on the fire dragon's body is very powerful, and it is difficult to damage ordinary magic, even black magic. It is almost impossible to break the dragon scales at the level of a student. Draco smiled and explained to Pansy, "Only the eyes are weak, the dragon's eyes don't have any protection, so the eye spell is indeed a good solution, but ......"
"An adult fire dragon is more than ten meters long, and it is three or four meters tall when it stands up. The range of the spit is ten meters away. The Eye Curse doesn't have a very long range. Daphne helped Draco finish the rest of the sentence, "Moreover, the fire dragon is dangerous, and the injured fire dragon is even more dangerous!" While it's true that the Eye Disease Curse can hurt a dragon, it can also make a dragon angry. The angry dragon is going to be even more dangerous......"
Angelina's originally energetic face became bitter again when she heard the words.
"Well, I have another way!" A hint of smugness flashed across Harry's face, and although it was quickly depressed, it was still keenly noticed by Daphany.
"Oh? What else can be done? "Angelina is interested again.
"What a coincidence, this method can be used by all three of us!" Harry laughed and said, "Broomstick!" ”
"Broomsticks?" Angelina was stunned for a moment, and she didn't react.
"You mean, riding a broomstick and a fire dragon?" Daphine continued to touch her bare chin, still interested: "It's a good idea! After all, the fire dragon is relatively large and will not be as flexible. If we ride a broomstick, we should be able to wrestle with it. Anyway, our mission can't really be to defeat the fire dragon. ”
"Isn't that right?" Hermione interrupted with a wave of her hand, "Isn't it only allowed to bring wands into the game?" ”
"Yes, only bring a wand in!" Harry nodded affirmatively, "So, we have to master the Flying Charm!" As he spoke, he looked at Daphany and Angelina with a grin: "I can do this magic, but I'm not very proficient." It still needs to be practiced. Well, there's still about a week to go, so it's definitely no problem. As for Angelina-senpai and Daphine......"
"I'm totally fine!" Angelina said very happily.
"I'm fine, but I don't necessarily use this magic. As you know, I still have a lot of means. Daphany said with a smile. Everyone else could understand what she said, and Daphne was much more skilled in magic than they did. Although it may be a little difficult to deal with the fire dragon, since it is not defeated, if other students can do it, Daphany can definitely do it. The students at Hogwarts all had a lot of trust in Daphany's strength.
"Yes, Scarhead!" Draco said angrily, "I didn't expect your head to be so good again!" ”
For Draco's urine, Harry had been used to it for more than three years. And despite his bad mouth, Harry could sense that Draco actually had a good opinion of him. It's just that this stupid kid doesn't know how to show kindness. Harry couldn't help but glance at Daphany as he thought of this. He'd heard from the other pure-blood kids about how Daphne had disciplined Draco as a child, and he wondered if Draco was just the right fit for that.
Draco's words weren't a compliment, but Harry explained, "I can't think of a way to do it, Professor Moody brought me up this morning!" ”
"Moody." Draco smashed his mouth, the expression on his face a little unnatural. Although he was not turned into a stoat as in the original plot, he was also cleaned up a few times. Not only him, but other Slytherin students except Daphine, who had more or less been cleaned up by him, and Draco had been rectified the most.
Daphne saw Draco's reaction, and thought it was funny. Little Barty is really pretending to look like it! For two months, this Xibei cargo was dutiful as a professor of the Defense Against the Dark Arts class. Daphany was skeptical if it was severely schizophrenic.
As for picking up Slytherin, especially Draco. Daphany thought a little more. It's just uncertain if he's just trying to pretend he's not interested in Slytherin, or if he's genuinely unhappy with Draco. Of course, he couldn't have had anything to do with Draco, more of a prejudice against Lucius.
After all, the Malfoys had been following Voldemort in the first place, but they quickly declared that they had nothing to do with Voldemort after his downfall......
