Chapter Seventy-Three: You Can't Grasp the Matter of Raising Dragons

Of course, Clark knew that Malfoy was not telling the truth, after all, after yesterday, after looking for him, Raven Fokine had been watching him from afar in the sky.

"So you need to get in touch with my dad now and ask him to help communicate with the Ministry of Magic's Department of Magical Beasts?" Now that he had confessed, Malfoy quickly put down his shelf and began to offer to help.

It's a pity that Clark doesn't need this, also as one of the twenty-eight pure-blood wizard families, the Malfoy family has connections in the Ministry of Magic, and the Prewett family naturally has it.

This relationship was not the clear water yamen of his uncle Arthur's Department of Forbidden Muggle Items, but the real authority.

"There's no hurry," he said, waving his hand, turning to Hagrid, "Noble can't do this, we need to raise dragons at Hogwarts, and the first thing is to be safe!" ”

"It's a school, and it's a young wizard, which means that if you don't get it under control, the consequences will be catastrophic. Hagrid, do you want to kill those children? ”

In this last sentence, Clark's tone was serious and scary, contrary to the smiling appearance he had before, and it was the first time that Hermione and Harry, who were sitting on the side, saw it for the first time, and they were so frightened that they didn't dare to come out.

Hagrid staggered to his feet, nearly hitting the roof.

He explained incoherently: "No! No! No! No, I like those kids, I didn't do anything! ”

His small black beetle-like eyes glistened with tears, as if he remembered some bad memory, and his whole person revealed a weakness that did not match his appearance.

Clarke, of course, knew what Hagrid was afraid of.

When he was a student at Hogwarts, he was found out by the young Lord Voldemort for keeping an eight-eyed spider in a closet, and he was blamed for the death of a schoolgirl, causing him to be expelled from the school for opening a secret room and releasing monsters, and breaking his wand.

This incident was a permanent pain in Hagrid's heart, and even though he knew that Aragog, who had not been raised by him, had committed the crime, the death of the schoolgirl still made him feel guilty.

Because of this, he still does not dare to approach the girls' bathroom on the second floor of Hogwarts Castle.

Looking at Hagrid's excited appearance, Clarke's heart was also a little uneasy, he didn't mean to deliberately reveal Hagrid's scars.

However, the matter of dragon taming is no better than the eight-eyed giant spider he raised before, the eight-eyed giant spider likes the dark and likes the dark, and the family concept is strong, more like an otaku, even if it is predatory, they also like to nest in their nests, waiting for the takeaway to be delivered to their door.

Dragons are different, they are large and have active bloodlines, which means that their bodies consume more energy, need more food, and have more desires.

Compared to the eight-eyed spider, the dragon prefers to take the initiative.

If there are no special circumstances, the hunting radius of a giant dragon can reach a staggering fifteen to twenty kilometers.

Coupled with the fact that they have a wide range of recipes, from a hunting dog to a goat, to a bison and a whale cub, all of which can be their food, the dragon is also very harmful.

"One of the rarest species of dragons, Norwegian Ridgeback was unusually aggressive, attacking most species of large land mammals, including humans, of course."

Safety is no trivial matter, and Clark can only talk about it first.

"Although because of the boat mirror ceremony for admission, the young wizards have Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry's ritual protection, and can avoid fatal damage within the campus.

But the fact that a dragon is attacking a student on a campus is big news in itself, and it won't go unpunished because no one has been harmed. ”

"If that happens, whether or not Noble hurts the students, it will be a trial from the Magical Beasts Management Division's Office of Dangerous Animal Control."

Hagrid's massive body shook for a moment, and this kind of official deterrence seemed to be extraordinarily effective for him.

"No, Noble is a good boy, he wouldn't do anything like that." Hagrid tried hard to argue for the little dragon, but he himself didn't believe what he said, and his voice became quieter and quieter.

"Hagrid, I don't think you want Noble to go astray, do you? Once it takes the wrong step, all that awaits it is death! ”

After seeing Hagrid's attitude soften, Clark decided to strike while the iron was hot and threw out his own plan.

"So we also need to find a reliable dragon trainer for Noble, which is also one of the necessary conditions to apply for a dragon breeding license."

He stared at Hagrid and said, "You're not suitable, Hagrid. You're a good hunting ground keeper, but you can't take care of Noble, you don't have experience in dragon taming, and the water is so deep that you can't grasp it. ”

Hagrid's face was filled with disappointment, and he turned his attention to the others present, hoping to gain their support, but the others thought exactly the same as Clark.

The first to speak was Harry, who had just been bitten off half of his palm by Norber, who was really worried about feeding the dragon, and at the same time deeply doubted Hagrid's concept of raising dragons.

"Yes, Hagrid, raising dragons is not an easy job, I think we have to find a professional. Just like we play Quidditch, let the professional do the professional thing. ”

With that, Harry avoided Hagrid's eyes, and as a good friend, he was still a little ashamed of his support for Hagrid.

Malfoy, however, had no such concerns.

"I don't really like this guy," he said, gesturing at Clark, "but I think he has a point." I've also been to the dragon farm in Romania, and to be honest, stupid big man, your conditions are bigger than the gap between ants and dragons. ”

His words were like a critical blow, and Hagrid's mood fell a little lower, like a child who has been robbed of his beloved toy, snot and tears flowing down together.

At this time, Hermione, who was sitting next to Clark, comforted him and said, "Don't be sad, Hagrid, I support you. ”

Anyway, there were already three people who objected, and even if she agreed with Hagrid, it was only three to two, and it had no impact on the overall situation, so why should she rub salt in Hagrid's wounds.

"Maybe your ability is still lacking, but you have a love for magical creatures, I believe that as long as you are given enough time to learn and improve, you will definitely be able to become an excellent dragon trainer."

Hermione's words were very level, not only affirming Hagrid's intentions, but also tactfully pointing out that his ability was not enough and needed to be improved, while also leaving him a little hope.
