Chapter 30: A Thousand Ways to Eat Dragons

After staring at the dragon egg and chatting for a while, the four of them left, and they still had classes to attend.

With just over two months to go until the end of the term, Harry and Ron still seemed to be stuck in their guessing game, and occasionally Harry would ask Hermione some questions, but for some reason he always had a feeling of fear when he talked to Hermione.

He was probably scared by Hermione.

……

Gryffindor's common room,

The three of Harry were discussing who Nicol Lemay was. But Hermione was almost perfunctory, looking through the thick books she had borrowed from the library for fun. She wanted to know what progress had been made in the wizarding world in the last thousand years.

Harry and Ron were still having a heated discussion.

And Li Yi was reading the thick miniature history book about the last thousand years with Hermione.

At this time, suddenly there was a bouncing sound from the corridor of the fat lady.

"Who is it?" Harry got up and looked cautiously.

Then he saw a familiar man—Neville.

"Neville? What happened to you? Harry asked as he looked at Neville, who was standing stiffly there, as he walked up.

"It's Malfoy, and he cast a leg-locking spell on me. I jumped here step by step from the auditorium......"

"Neville, you should learn to resist!" Harry was a little furious.

"You don't have to say I'm too timid to be in Gryffindor, Malfoy has already said that to me." Neville choked up.

Hermione heard what was going on, and she cast a spell on Neville.

"Thank you...... Hermione, thank you. Neville's face was a little pale, and he could see that he had suffered a great setback, both physically and mentally, along the way.

Harry took out a box of chocolate frogs that Hermione had given him for Christmas, unwrapped it and handed it to Neville, comforting him by the way, "You're better than twelve Malfoy, and the Sorting Hat picked you into Gryffindor, didn't it?" What about Malfoy? He was sorted into Slytherin. ”

Neville unwrapped the chocolate frog and smiled feebly.

"Thank you, Harry...... Do you want to paint? I remember you had a collection of pictures, didn't you? ”

Harry took the card Neville handed him over, and then comforted Neville a few more words.

Hermione also came up to cheer Neville up, and Li Yi felt that she might not be able to give Malfoy a black shot when she would do it, anyway, few of the children nowadays understand what their responsibilities are.

As Neville left, Harry looked at the portrait.

"It's Dumbledore again...... Oh, my God! He gasped.

"What's wrong?" Others asked.

"I've found him, Nicol Lemay. I'll just say I've always been familiar with the name......"

I saw the above sentence "The cooperation with Nicol Lemay in alchemy has been fruitful." ”

Hermione already knew how to find this man.

She went back to her bedroom and found a book much thicker than the one she was reading now—A Brief History of the Development of Alchemy.

Then I flipped to the back pages and pointed to the title on it - "Nicol Lemay, the secret of the wizard of longevity".

Then she began to explain Nicol Lemay: "He is the only known maker of the Philosopher's Stone, capable of turning any metal into pure gold, and can also create an elixir of life, which can make people immortal......

At this moment, the two people who didn't read much in the first place finally understood the preciousness of the Philosopher's Stone.

Li Yi, who was next to him, suddenly felt a move in his heart, and he suddenly became a little interested in the Philosopher's Stone. Perhaps this stone hides the secret he is looking for.

……

Not long after, while eating breakfast, Hedwig suddenly brought a note, which read: It's almost out of the shell.

Ron even wanted to skip class to see the dragon come out of the shell, but the others disagreed. Finally, at lunchtime after the herb class, they ran straight to Hagrid without even eating.

Even for a wizard, it is not uncommon to see a dragon emerge from its shell.

Li Yi wanted to collect some fragments of eggshells, for him, the dragon was a magical creature with relatively high combat power in this wizarding world, which should be able to prove his conjecture more clearly, but before that, he needed to find a way to get a little bit of dragon blood.

Hagrid's house was tightly covered, and when they arrived, Hagrid came out to greet them, and it was a joyous time for a man who loved magical creatures.

A few people entered the room and stood around the table, and at this time the dragon egg had begun to crack a little, and it looked like it was about to burst out.

Then there was a harsh sound like a fingernail scratching a blackboard, and the egg finally cracked.

The little fire dragon came out of its shell, it didn't look very good, it was a little wrinkled, and it was black.

It sneezed and a little spark came out of its nose.

Hagrid reached out and touched the little fire dragon's head, but the little fire dragon bit his hand all of a sudden, but it seemed that its own strong defense was working, and the little fire dragon didn't even bite Hagrid's finger, but only bit off a little white mark.

"Oh, the baby is hungry. Don't cry, mommy will get you something to eat......" Hagrid said, bringing a nearby barrel of brandy and some meat from some unknown animals to the little fire dragon.

As for the original eggshells on the table, they had been taken away directly by Li Yi, anyway, among the few people present, except for him and Hermione, none of them took these eggshells seriously.

The books Hagrid read said that brandy and meat were the best food for the little dragon, and Harry and Ron didn't have the slightest idea of raising dragons, so few people paid attention to eggshells.

It was at this point that Hagrid seemed to have discovered something, and he walked directly to the curtain, and then opened it.

"Hagrid, what's wrong?" Harry was a little surprised by Hagrid's reaction.

"A boy, it seems, is from school, and he seems to have seen Noble."

Noble was Hagrid's name for the dragon.

"What should I do?" Harry and Ron stared at each other anxiously.

At this time, Hermione directly pushed away them in front of the window, and then put a leg-locking charm on Malfoy, who had not yet run far.

The next moment, the two boys and Hagrid saw Malfoy, who was running, fall to the ground.

"What do you say to do?" Hermione put down her wand, and after saying a word to the three of them, she sat directly next to Li Yi and carefully examined the little dragon.

Harry, they were discussing how to solve Malfoy's problem, but they couldn't hear what they were talking about.

"This dragon doesn't look very good, and I don't know if it's good or not......"

"I think it's good, but it may take some special treatment. Like add a little salt or something......"
