Chapter 462: Hagrid's Troubles
The birth of the 'Dragon Thieves' was the record of hunting one hundred and thirteen dragons, which made this group of thieves who came and went without a trace and became famous under the bounty of one billion gold Galleons from the Ministry of Magic of various European countries. After a series of hunting and killing all kinds of magical creatures, the huge bounty could only be increased.
Today, when the dragon is listed as a key protected object, Rubeus. Hagrid himself can't win a dragon egg by making a bet with a goblin in a bar. With the appearance of Li She's group of zombies and drought, the will of the world has also adjusted the original world trajectory. The will of the world is like a ruthless program, in order to keep the whole world trajectory running, Rubeus. Hagrid was still in the Axe Breaker Bar, making a bet with a goblin, but he came back with a Hippogriff.
With the Dragons and Thieves hunting down magical creatures, all of the now even ordinary Hippogriffs have become protected magical creatures. The Ministry of Magic prohibits the domestication of private wizards.
Rupert. Hagrid, a large man with giant blood, happily carried the eagle-headed horse-winged beast the size of an adult hound back to his humble house.
Rubeus with the blood of a giant. Hagrid, naturally easy to approach those magical creatures, but the nervous Rubeus. Hagrid was indeed not a competent nanny, and in the spirit of pampering the young Hippogriff, Rubeus. Hagrid fed the hoggydog-sized eagle-headed horse winged beast according to his own appetite. In less than a week, the eagle had grown to the size of a calf, with a giant eagle's head, wings, hook-like front paws, and hind body, including legs and tail. The eyes are orange and the coat color is the same as that of a normal horse.
But trouble ensued, and as a carnivore, the Hippogriff's demand for fresh meat continued to grow every day. Increasing day by day. In the beginning, Rubeus. Hagrid was also able to capture rabbits, ferrets, and other critters from the dark forest and feed them on the Hippogriff. For some reason, the Hippogriff followed Rubeus. After living for a while, Hagrid, a half-breed giant, grew to the size of an adult horse in a month. Ten pounds of fresh meat per meal is no longer enough to feed this little guy. And Rubeus. Hagrid's frequent hunting in the Dark Forest also caused dissatisfaction among the Centaurs, the natives of the Dark Forest.
In the middle of the night. Ares arrived at Rubeus with twenty centaur warriors. Outside the fence in front of Hagrid's house. He collided with Hagrid, who had returned with more than twenty hares. "Rubeus. Hagrid! Won't Dumbledore pay you a salary? ”
Hagrid scratched his messy hair and smiled proudly, "Of course there is a salary!" "For a wizard who was expelled halfway, being able to earn fifty gold galleons a month is enough to support himself. All Rubeus. Hagrid was grateful to Dumbledore, the greatest white wizard of the century.
Hagrid, who was straight, didn't understand why these centaur friends from the dark forest had come to the door. Hagrid's words darkened Ares' face! "If you have an income of fifty gold galleons a month, why do you hunt so many animals in the dark forest every day?" Ares exclaimed.
The other party's words made Hagrid have an apologetic expression on his face, for the centaur clan, relying on the income from the resale of unicorn horns and tails. It's just enough to exchange for some daily necessities. As for the food needed for ordinary life, it is still obtained through the most primitive hunting. Female centaur warriors gather wild fruits, mushrooms, and mushrooms, while male centaur warriors hunt small mammals in the forest with bows and arrows on their backs. But since Hagrid had kept the eagle in his home, he had to hunt hundreds of hares in the dark forest every day to fill the little one's belly. It's the equivalent of fighting the centaurs for food.
The Hippogriff in the house seemed to smell Hagrid, shook its basin-sized eagle head, and let out a cheerful chirping 'Hoohoo...'
As humanoid magical creatures, the centaurs have human intelligence and magical instincts, and Ares and the centaur warriors looked at Hagrid's house.
Ares sniffed the scent. Squinting his eyes, he said, "It turned out to be a winged beast with a hippoise!" Looks like these rabbits are for it, right? Hum! Wouldn't you be worried that such a ferocious carnivore would hurt the students of Hogwarts? ”
"Well, I'm not going to go to this Ares, please don't tell anyone else," the stupid Rubeus. Hagrid hurriedly waved his hand.
"Humph! I hope you remember what you said today! And also. If this Hippogriff hunts in the dark forest, we centaur warriors don't mind shooting it!! With that, Ares led his people to turn and leave.
After hunting one hundred and thirteen dragons, the 'Dragon Thieves' still hunted other magical creatures everywhere, which made the Ministry of Magic of various countries like a great enemy, and various laws to protect magical creatures were introduced one after another. If you let others know that you have raised a Hippogriff in your home, not only will the little one be taken away by the Aurors of the Ministry of Magic, but you will also lose your job as the key keeper of Hogwarts. Those noble school directors must have used this as a reason to put pressure on Dumbledore, and the three-star Hippogriff did have a certain attack power. Even if you're an adult wizard, if you're not careful. It will also suffer in front of it. Hook-like claws that not only capture prey, but also tear through human chests.
Hagrid shook his head helplessly, and walked into his humble hut with the hare in his hand. The pair of three-meter-long winged wings flapped and stood upright on their hind legs, probably because the food was too good, and the eagle-headed winged beast was about as tall as Hagrid. Why do magical creatures living in the wild have such powerful attack power? That's because in the world of the jungle, if you want to get food, you have to fight, the weak can only starve, and only the ferocious fight can survive. Therefore, many wild carnivorous magical creatures often live a hungry and full life, and can fight fiercely for a bite of food.
And this eagle-headed horse, which was kept by Hagrid at home, has a winged beast and is good, and he has enough food for three meals a day. Even flying is saved. Naturally, under Hagrid's careful feeding, the body is even larger.
Hagrid touched the head of the eagle-headed horse, and the little guy was raised by Hagrid, so he was naturally very close to Hagrid, and rubbed Hagrid's chest with the huge eagle head on his face, "Little one! After eating this meal. I'm going to have to find another way! I don't know how much fresh meat I can buy for fifty gold galleons! Hagrid smiled helplessly. Picked up a hare, shook it in front of the eagle-headed horse-winged beast like a dog, and threw it high, and the eagle-headed horse-winged beast's powerful hind legs kicked it, and the eagle's beak grabbed the whole hare, and swallowed it with fur and skin. In the blink of an eye, more than 20 hares were eaten cleanly.
Harry Potter, the boy who never died, was in Hogwarts. No matter where he goes, he will be concerned, and the identity of the prophesied savior has made Harry Potter most respected here, except for Snape, a cold Potions professor and a group of nobles led by Darka, Harry Potter can be said to be quite good here. Since his parents left more than 100,000 gold galleons, it was enough to cover his expenses for seven years at Hogwarts. I don't know how many times better the food is better than in my aunt's house.
In the course of the revised world trajectory, Harry. Porter, Ron. Weasley, Hermione. The three of Granger formed a small group. According to the development of the world's trajectory, the three of them are in the process of exploring the secret room. The creepy three-headed dog was found. To enter the secret room, you must pass through the guard of this three-headed dog. So Harry. The three of Potter thought of Rubeus. Hagrid, a half-blood giant who knows the habits of magical creatures very well.
"Hagrid Hagrid, are you there?" Ron's voice rang out outside the fence.
Hagrid, who was teasing the Hippogriff, was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly replied, "Come on, don't come in!" If you stay outside, I'll come out right away!! ”
Hagrid frantically pushed open a little crack in the door and squeezed it out, then quickly closed the wooden door, afraid that the three children would see the Hippogriff in the house.
Looking at Hagrid's sneaky appearance, Hermione, a genius girl from the Muggle world. Grin grinning, "Hagrid, we're visiting you, don't you invite us in for a while?" That's not good."
Hagrid scratched his head. His eyes dodged, and he wanted to cover up and said, "Hehe, it's inconvenient today, if there's anything to do, just talk about it here!" ”
At that moment, the Hippogriff, which had eaten more than twenty hares and was still half-full, cried again, and a horse-like cry came out of the room. Three-meter-long wings fluttered, knocking over the furniture in the house. For a moment, there was a 'crackling' sound in the room.
Hagrid was so nervous that he opened the door and shouted into the house, "Little one! Don't make a fuss, I'll get you something to eat later, oh damn it! That's the curtains!! Can't eat it."
Curious Harry. The three of Potter took advantage of Hagrid's stunned efforts to reach the crack in the door. Seeing magical creatures up close for the first time made the three little ones gasp, "Oh... This is a Hippogriff!! I've seen it in "Introduction to Modern Magical Creatures"!! Hagrid: It's a carnivorous creature! The danger rating is up to three stars! With dragons hunted in large numbers, even the Hippogriff's Rarity Level has now been raised to Level 5!! "As a female schoolboy, Hermione. Granger opened his mouth to tell the general situation of the magical creature in front of him.
Since it was Harry. The Potters found that Hagrid could only welcome the three little ones into the room.
'Gollum' Ron. Weasley swallowed, as a pure-blood wizard family, he also has a father who works in the Ministry of Magic, so he naturally knows that in the entire wizarding world, the Ministry of Magic of various countries strictly prohibits individuals from raising magical creatures.
"Hagrid, if you're denounced, you're in for a miserable situation! My dad once said that now anyone who raises magical creatures with a rarity level of four or higher without permission will be fined! A fine of 100,000 gold Galleons, and if you can't pay it, you'll be imprisoned in Aztaban!! "Ron. Weasley couldn't help but remind.
"It can't be so serious, right? Hagrid, the Hippogriff, where did you get it? After all, Hagrid had 'rescued' himself from his aunt's house and brought him a birthday cake. Harry. Potter still cares deeply about this giant friend.
All three of them stared at Hagrid, and if they had obtained it by illegal means, then it would be a big deal. The honest Hagrid scratched his head and grumbled angrily, "Damn goblins! Most of the time they lost to me on purpose! This Hippogriff I won from a bet I made with a goblin at the Broken Axe Bar! When I first arrived, the little guy was only so old that he could only work for a few days, and my house couldn't fit it. Hagrid stretched out his big hand and gestured to the newborn appearance of the little family.
Harry. The three of Potter couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, since it was won by a bet, as long as it was not poached through illegal means, with the emergence of the 'Dragon Thieves', the Ministry of Magic of various countries has cracked down on the poaching of magical creatures, and once caught, it will be sentenced to at least ten years in prison.
Now that the three little ones had found out, Hagrid told the centaurs about the complaints. The three warm-hearted little ones helped to figure out a way for Hagrid.
"Hagrid, you can't afford to earn fifty gold galleons a month, and you can't afford to support this 'little guy'! As it grows every day, the amount of food it eats will definitely increase, and one day it will be exposed! "Hermione. Granger said, holding his chin.
"Yes, if someone finds out, you'll be miserable! It's better to send it away! Isn't there a dark forest next to our school? Send it inside, "Harry. Potter said, pointing in the direction of the Dark Forest.
Hagrid shook his head, "No, that's not going to work!" That guy Ares said that if the little guy hunted for food in the dark forest, their centaurs would shoot him!! ”
Ron. Weasley suddenly said angrily, "Why? Could it be that the Dark Forest belongs to their centaur clan? ”
As a gifted girl, Hermione. Granger explained; "The centaurs, as humanoid magical creatures, are actually similar to humans in terms of lifestyle, they are omnivorous, they are a group with a strong sense of territory, and this dark forest is equivalent to their territory! As a race that is associated with unicorns, they live a hard life on weekdays, and they sell their horns or tails in exchange for some biological necessities! If you put this carnivorous 'little one' in the dark forest! Bound to compete with the centaurs for food! The centaurs will definitely hunt it in order to protect the small herbivorous mammals!! ”
"Yes, it definitely won't work if it is sent to the dark forest, if only there could be some magical creature farm that can receive the 'little one'!!" Hagrid sighed.
The word farm makes Ron. Weasley's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly proposed, "Farms? That's right! My brother Charlie is working in a magical creature farm in Romania after graduating, so let's see if we can get it there? ”
This news for Rubeus. For Hagrid, it's the most wonderful thing to do, as he can find a home for the little one without worrying about being found out by someone else who is keeping a magical creature and losing his job.
Harry. The Potter trio was indeed eager to help Rubeus. Hagrid contacts Ron's brother. Charlie, who is far away in Romania, also agreed to the request after communicating with the person in charge of the farm. (To be continued......)
