Chapter 818: Second Meeting
The Giants lived in a very special position, in fact, Van Lin never understood why the Giants liked to establish their territory on the hills, and, more importantly, the place that the Giant chose was an active volcano, but the volcano had never erupted, at least for as long as the Ministry of Magic was recorded, the volcano had been inhabited by giants, and the unusually rich fluctuations in the volcano also showed the possibility that it was still active all the time.
Maybe it's a habit that has been passed down since ancient times.
This probably goes back to the time of God.
The first to be recorded were the ancient Greeks.
Kiklops, is the giant of Sicily in Greek mythology. It has one eye on its forehead, and its name in Greek means round eye, and it is good at forging. According to Greek mythology, the first generation of cyclops were the children of Ouranos and Gaia, a total of three.
According to the ancient Greek poet and famous sorcerer Hesiod, they were strong, stubborn, and impulsive, and skilled in making and using tools and weapons.
In Hesiod's mythology, the cyclops are the children of Ouranos and Gaia, who are brontes, sterops, and arges, respectively, and are characterized by "one-eyed" eyes, with only one eye in the middle of their forehead. Ouranos feared their power and imprisoned them in the dark abyss. Later, Zeus freed them from the dark abyss in order to fight the Titans. They forged thunderbolts for Zeus, stealth helmets for Hades, tridents for Poseidon, bows and moonlight arrows for Artemis, and bows and sun arrows for Apollo.
This is probably the most detailed description of the Cyclops creature.
With the ability to fight the Titans, in fact, many wizards believe that the Cyclops is just a secondary generation of the Titans.
Just as a wizard can't be born with it, the cyclops control thunder and lightning and fire, which is probably the reason why he is good at forging, and since confirming the existence of gods, Van Lin does not doubt these seemingly ethereal records.
However, the powerful bloodline is lonely, just like those pure-blood wizard families are unable to continue their bloodline innate magic, but the giants are more thorough in this degradation.
The giants are getting closer to the human form, and their power is dying out.
The bloodline has endowed them with unparalleled physical abilities, and never doubt the relationship between giants and fire dragons.
Dragons are powerful, so to speak, but adult giants feed on dragons.
The dragon of ancient times is not comparable to the present, if the dragon is considered a behemoth now, then the ancient dragon stood down and looked up, which can help the human body understand what is called covering the sky and the sun.
However, dragons are no longer dragons, and giants ......
Van Lin was very suspicious of what caused the giant's IQ to perish.
Maybe the world just took away the unbalanced magical abilities, and then, the rest of the way, there were some problems with the continuation of the bloodline.
However, many of the giants' customs have been perfectly preserved.
Surviving in the mountains, fond of fighting, and close to the source of fire, the former giants were able to create lifelong weapons for the gods.
"So, that's why it's so hot here?" Van Lin whispered, in fact, with his magical nature, he didn't like the environment in which giants lived.
The slight smell of sulfur made Van Lin feel very uncomfortable.
However, it is not difficult to understand that winter is always cold, even giants cannot survive the whole winter by relying on their skin alone, without magic, animal skins for giants, it seems that only dragon skins can meet their size, and after that, it is a source of heat.
As a gift from nature, at least so the giants thought, the warmth of the volcanic cave would allow them to survive a harsh winter, and even the next......
Speaking of which, the Luke Giants were not embarrassed by Truns when they handed over the gifts, to be exact, the giants would never refuse such gifts, but the results were not satisfactory.
Trunce's tooth ornaments lacked the giant's love of gifts, so to speak, and he just played with them casually and threw them into the corner of the cave where he lived.
This is not a good performance, as the warlike representative of the giants, Truss seems to lack some patience with Dumbledore's men, unlike the rejoicing Gugo.
The place of today's meeting is in the cave of Guge, that is, the cave in the volcano, and the heat that does not cause it makes Fan Lin leave some sweat rarely.
When Hagrid offered the gift and told Sirius what they were here for, Dumbledore's words.
The good-looking-looking Gogo showed some unexpected interest, he seemed to be interested in what Dumbledore had to say, he roared a few times, and Luke Giant told them that Gogo had heard of Dumbledore's name and knew that he was a great wizard.
It was definitely a surprising situation, a giant who lived in seclusion in the mountains had heard of Dumbledore, and Van Lin was very skeptical that all magical creatures in all of Europe knew Dumbledore's name.
Inside the cave, more and more giants gathered together, all showing interested expressions......
This is definitely a good sign, and the conversation that follows is quite pleasant, and several people are full of hope.
When Hagrid promised to bring another gift tomorrow, definitely better than the alchemy armor in Gugo's hand, Gugo had the brightest smile on his face.
It was definitely the best news that Gugo had ever heard, and things like armor were basically useless to anyone except for the knights of the Holy See or the royal people, and most of them were only for decoration.
Trading something useless for the friendship of some powerful war behemoth is undoubtedly a very good deal than buying and selling.
However, things weren't all smooth sailing, and Hagrid had said that the Death Eaters had been in contact with giants as well, and at this point, it was hard to guarantee that Gugo wouldn't fall to Voldemort's side for more gifts.
If Gogo had heard of Albus Dumbledore's name, he must have heard of Voldemort's name.
The threat of the Dark Lord is clear even to the giants, and in the last time the Dark Lord era, the giants were the weapons of the Death Eaters, but the sudden fall of Voldemort caused the giants to suffer as well, but no one can guarantee whether the giants have learned their lesson.
However, looking at the current situation, there should be no ......
