Chapter 124: Fire Dragon Alice
August 31, 1982, fine.
The sky is clear and the sun is scorching.
Diagon Alley is a bustling scene of people coming and going, and all kinds of magic props are displayed on the exhibition stands, and behind the floor-to-ceiling windows, they shimmer eye-catching, as if calling people...... The money bag!
Arthur took his wife's hand and absentmindedly took his children to pick out the books needed for the new semester at the Blotted bookstore.
Unexpectedly, within two minutes of reading, his lovely family members were hooked by Girod Lockhart, who suddenly walked out of the back hall of the bookstore, threw away the books, and gathered into the frenzy of the crowd.
Arthur knew Giraud as a beautiful man and a famous explorer, but he didn't stop there, but his family was obviously not as good as he was, and they could resist the double temptation of beauty and adventure!
Seeing the slightly eyes of his wife and children, he couldn't help but look straight to the side. I muttered over and over again in my heart: "Look at other people's daughters, look at other people's daughters......"
Following Arthur's gaze, I saw Luna standing in front of the magazine area, holding a copy of "Singing and Singing" magazine.
Luna really deserves Arthur's boasting, because she's serious about reading books! This may not be a big deal in normal times, but who comes to the bookstore to read books?
But now, in the case that everyone in the bookstore is thinking outside the books, her quiet reading of books is commendable!
But the next moment Arthur was not envious, because Luna turned his head to look out of the bookstore; Arthur didn't have to take any breath as his wife and children looked away from Girond and turned their heads out of the bookstore.
Arthur didn't think much of it, though, as he turned his head to look out of the bookstore.
"Boom~Boom~Boom!"
At this moment, a dense and continuous explosion suddenly appeared in the sky above the entire Diagon Alley. In the midst of people's horrified eyes, Gringotts, which had stood in Diagon Alley for a thousand years, suddenly split in two from the center, and half of it collapsed!
"Roar~!"
Before the people could recover from the continuous roar, a deafening roar suddenly followed, and its sound was continuous, like spring thunder, echoing in the nine heavens!
Immediately after, the stones flew, the sky shook, and a fiery red western dragon broke free from the ruins, soaring into the sky in an instant, and the roar resounded through the sky in an instant!
Combined with the huge and hideous body of the fire dragon, it is like an ancient beast god descending into the world! The power is so strong that it overwhelming the people in Diagon Alley!
"Oh my God, isn't this the fire dragon that guards Gringotts? Why did you go crazy all of a sudden?! ”
"This is the legend that one of the strongest western dragons in the European wizarding world, after being tamed by the ancestors of Gringotts, it was used to protect its most fundamental place - the Gringotts Vault, the fire dragon Alice, who has survived for more than 600 years!"
"Legend has it that the fire dragon Alice is one of the oldest dragons in the wizarding world, because it has existed for too long, so the accumulated magic power is also very large, and its strength is comparable to the strongest in the wizarding world - Dumbledore!"
Contrary to the exclamations of others, as the long-standing patriarch of the Weasley clan, Arthur obviously knew more.
For example, the strength of the fire dragon Alice is actually not as good as Dumbledore, but it is only one step behind!
For example, Alice's exact age is five hundred and ninety-one years, not yet more than six hundred!
For example, Alice has had examples of madness in history! That time, sixteen goblins died in Gringotts, and thirty-seven innocent wizards shopped in Diagon Alley!
In other words, if Alice the fire dragon goes crazy, there will be at least thirty of them going to see Merlin en masse!
And he, his relatives, may be one of them!
At this moment, Arthur's mind was racing, he wiped the non-existent sweat on his forehead, and turned his head to run away with his family!
The world is big, and life is the biggest! If you don't run now, when?
However, at this moment, Luna's words made him stop and subconsciously look at the sky.
"There's someone up there, it's Brother Gogo!"
After all, it's a wizard, even if the fire dragon can see vaguely, but we have magic! Arthur immediately cast a clairvoyance-like spell on his eyes, and the next moment his jaw was dislocated.
"Oh, Merlin is on top! You're really a man above Merlin! And it's an acquaintance, the mysterious young man who disappeared after telling himself to prove his strength! I said why he disappeared, so he came here! ”
At this moment, Arthur felt that 10,000 Norwegian spineback dragons flew in his heart......
But......
"This is a dragon slayer, a dragon slayer that hasn't been seen in two hundred years! Once successful, you will be awarded the Dragon Slayer of the Order of the First Class of the Order of the Merlin Regiment! Is it going to be today?! ”
Arthur shouted in his heart, his face flushed even more. For a wizard, the temptation of the Merlin Medal is like the temptation of a marquis to worship a military general!
Famous in history, admired by all generations, let the world know that you have been here, and who wouldn't want to get this honor?!
If it weren't for his low strength, lack of strong body, and mediocre skills in driving a broomstick, he would have gone to the wild to find a dragon to slaughter and win the title of "Dragon Slayer Warrior"!
However, the truth is always too far from the fantasy......
One of the rules of dragon slaying: No magic is allowed, but non-offensive magic items can be used.
Dragon Slaying Rule 2: Must be an adult dragon!
In Harry Potter: Goblet of Fire, Harry was framed by Barty Crouch Jr., posing as Moody the Mad-Eye, when he was registered for the Triwizard Tournament, and his name was thrown into the Goblet of Fire, making him selected.
And because there is an age limit for signing up for the Triwizard Tournament, Harry is obviously not old enough, so he is considered to have signed up by improper means, and was once ridiculed by almost all the students at Hogwarts School.
However, in this case, when Harry successfully escaped from the fire dragon in the first event of the Triwizard Tournament and obtained the golden egg protected by the fire dragon, his situation changed drastically in an instant - from everyone shouting and beating to immediately becoming admired by everyone!
The reason for this is because Harry escaped from a newly grown fire dragon without using any magic!
Just by getting rid of it, Harry went from a low point in his life to the adoration of all the students of the three major schools of magic!
It can be seen from this that the word "dragon slayer warrior" represents what a supreme glory and deep worship in the wizarding world!
And now, in Diagon Alley, the most prosperous wizarding world, there has been a scene of dragon slaying that has not appeared for two hundred years, and at this time, suddenly, in the eyes of every Diagon Alley wizard...... Present!
The witnesses of glory will enjoy the common glory together with the recipients of glory!
Above the sky, a roar shook the sky. Qin Shao's hands were like pliers, firmly holding a bone spur on the back of the fire dragon, and let the fire dragon Alice roll and struggle, but to no avail.
Riding a fire dragon in the sky, Qin Shao thought in his heart: "Although it is very face-saving to stand on the head of a western dragon, I am not Yin Zhiping's 'dragon knight', I can't afford to enjoy this face!" ”
Since there was a Yin Zhiping in the East, the teenagers have become completely loveless for the profession of "Dragon Knight". Qin Shao, as a standard oriental otaku, is also deeply affected by this phenomenon. So much so that when he saw a dragon now, the first thing he thought of was - xiaolongbao!
Xiaolongbao can't be used as a mount, only eaten. Therefore, Alice the fire dragon cannot be used as a mount, and can only eat.
Well, then eat it!
Compared with steamed buns, dragon meat is a great tonic, and it is not a loss to eat it!
Thinking of this, Qin Shao's arms suddenly exerted force, only to hear a "click", and the hideous bone spur that Qin Shao held was suddenly broken from the flesh and blood on the back of the fire dragon!
Artificially bred pseudo-dragons are powerful, but compared to real dragons, the gap is vastly different!
Now Qin Shao's strength is not afraid of a real Western dragon, let alone the "pseudo-dragon" in front of him who has been worn out of his sharpness and dignity!
The bone spurs snapped and stirred in the flesh and blood, and the fire dragon suddenly roared in the sky, rolling in mid-air. While venting its anger, it is more expected to get rid of the person on its back who makes it painful!
A little bump and tumbling is just a drizzle for the warrior. Qin Shao got up with martial arts, and the most basic kung fu in the field of martial arts, such as horse steps and jack pendants, was naturally perfected. How Ren Huolong struggled, he didn't understand!
Not only that, in the rolling of the fire dragon, Qin Shao was not to be outdone. The palms of the hands slapped again and again, and palm shadows emanated from them, accurately falling on the row of bone spurs on the back of the fire dragon, causing a series of explosions.
"Boom...... Rumble...... Boom ......"
In an instant, the back of the fire dragon was as lively as the New Year, with blood flowers scattered and flesh and blood flying! In a blur of flesh and blood, the roar in the fire dragon's mouth turned into a wail, and the scorching flames continued to erupt from the mouth, but the flames would not bend, even though the power was unparalleled, but it could not touch the person on the back!
This also illustrates a point from the side: being big is not necessarily a good thing!
Qin Shao jumped up, landed steadily on the head of the fire dragon, and laughed loudly: "Take off your minions, I see how majestic you are!" Haha, Fire Dragon Dragon~ Come to the bowl! ”
As if he understood Qin Shao's words, a hint of determination flashed in the human nature of the fire dragon's eyes. Then the wings flapped, and they flew high into the air, and when they reached the top, they suddenly closed their wings and roared in the sky!
"Roar~!"
Without wings to resist the wind, the fire dragon soaring in the sky suddenly fell straight down! In the fall, he twisted his body and turned his back to the ground!
Previously, the height of the fire dragon from the ground was 200 meters, and it continued to climb in the process of flying, reaching a height of 1,000 meters! If it weren't for the magic barrier, I'm afraid it would be even higher!
Now the wings are closed, and the huge body and weight are accelerating under the action of the earth's gravity, falling from a height of 1,000 meters. If it falls to the ground this time, the power will be no less than a large aerial bomb! This will be a catastrophe for the physically weak wizards watching the battle below!
In this regard, Qin Shao just smiled contemptuously and said coldly: "Do you think that with the determination to die together, you can pull the enemy to Huangquan with you?" Here I would like to give you a word of advice: do not compete with a martial artist to skydive, do not compare with a magician to set off fireworks. Because, that's what they do best! ”
