Chapter 189: The Giant Tribe

When you are able to use magic, everything becomes simpler.

McNeil continued to use the Detection Charm, searching for suspicious places nearby, and Ike was responsible for using the Levitation Charm on the two of them, deliberately strengthening the power of the Detection Charm, and only in this way could the Detection Charm be used to the fullest.

From France, the two followed the Alps, through northern Italy, southern Germany, to Austria, near Switzerland.

Even with magic, it's not an easy journey.

"Maybe we should have come to Austria in the first place." In the vast snowy mountains, McNeil took a sip of hot water from the kettle, and suddenly felt much warmer.

It's not that he's cold, a thermostat can solve it, but in this kind of ice and snow, it always makes people feel a little cold.

"It's something no one could have imagined, but we didn't get nothing along the way." Ike was also wearing a thin robe, a large hood covering his face, and a pair of glasses, which Dumbledore had given him a small gift during the summer vacation of his first year.

"Yes, who would have thought that there were still living members of the Rozier family and the Rohr family." McNeil sighed, "Since Evan died, I thought they were wiped out. ”

"It was a pleasant surprise."

"yes." Ike echoed, he didn't expect that the people in those two families would hide in Germany and hide in the mountains and forests. If it weren't for the protective magic they had set up around their residence, they wouldn't have been able to find this group of guys.

However, Rozier and the Rohr family suffered a catastrophe during the First Wizarding War, and even if they escaped, not many people did. However, even so, after learning of the resurrection of Comrade Lao Fu, the group decided to return to England and return to Lao Fu's command.

Ike had a hard time understanding why they were doing this, except for a few white-haired old men, there were only a few people left in the two families who were about the same age as him, and at most they were about to reach adulthood. Coupled with years of isolation, these people are not in such a good state, and they are a little nervous.

After thinking about it, Ike was relieved, after all, there are few normal people who can follow Comrade Lao Fu.

McNeil recognized the white-haired old guys, who had fought the Ministry of Magic together decades earlier, and were ecstatic to meet after a long absence. After that, it's time to exchange information that you like to see.

After the night, the two families returned west to London, while Ike and McNeill headed east to Austria.

After all, they have lived in the mountains for decades, and they know the traces of giants.

"If the clues they gave are correct, they should be around here." McNeil put away the kettle, looked at the surrounding scenery that looked like a mold, and said.

"I don't think it matters with or without their help, we basically walked the entire Alps." Ike said calmly.

McNeill was a little embarrassed, but then he covered it up. He coughed lightly and said, "Let's go, find those guys earlier, and go back early." ”

After having a goal, people's mood is also different, and even the speed of search is much faster. At this time, more than half a month has passed since the two of them set off, and they are eager to end it early.

After three or four days of searching, the two finally found the big guys.

In the inaccessible mountains, over the ridge, several tall figures of more than twenty feet were just below. They gathered together, some walking slowly, some sitting on the ground, around a small campfire in the middle. Every now and then, giants come back, carrying all sorts of prey and trees, and they look well organized.

"Tomorrow we will go down again and meet their Gugo." McNeil looked at the sky and said, "Take a shower tonight and get some rest." ”

"Gugo?" Ike asked, "What's that?" ”

"The leader of the giants, their name is Gugo, the ugliest and tallest of the bunch." McNeil led Ike to hide behind a huge rock, and said as he pulled out the tent, "Pretty good." ”

The two entered the tent, went back to their respective houses and slept peacefully, and the next morning, they went down the mountain in good spirits and walked to the tribe of giants.

McNeill was at the front, and he had found the location of Gugo yesterday in the mountains, by the lake in the innermost part of the valley. Along the way, he completely ignored the other giants in the valley and walked straight towards the lake with a very large box held aloft.

Ike followed, and when the two of them came to Gugo, McNeil respectfully placed the box on the snow next to the tall and ugly giant, bowed, and shouted, "A gift from the Dark Lord to the giant Gugo as a respect!" ”

Gu Ge had already spotted the two of them, straightened his waist a little when he saw this, opened his mouth, and said something that Ike didn't understand. Not long after, two slightly shorter giants came.

"What is this?" A giant stumbled and spoke, very loudly and with a very pronounced accent.

"A music box made by a goblin that can make great music." McNeil said.

The giant muttered a few words to Gu Ge and asked, "Gu Ge wants to ask, what else can it do besides make a sound?" ”

"It makes you sleep better." McNeill replied.

Gogo was obviously not very happy with McNeil's answer, but it was a magical item anyway, so he accepted it.

Seeing this, McNeil once again raised his voice, "The Dark Lord hopes that when the Messenger brings another gift tomorrow, Gugo will be able to talk to the Messenger about something. ”

Gugo agreed. The giant replied, and McNeil and Ike bowed like Gogo again, and walked backwards for a long time before turning to leave.

Back in the tent, Ike asked, "Why don't we ask today?" ”

"Today's gift didn't satisfy Gugo." McNeil frowned, "I'll admit, I underestimated that guy, and I'll have to take out something more precious tomorrow." ”

"The big sword made by the goblins should be a good choice."

"You should have delivered this today." Ike said calmly, "I don't think those giants know how to appreciate music. ”

Hearing this, McNeill's face showed a hint of embarrassment, smiled, and did not answer.

"I'll go out and get acquainted with my surroundings." So saying, he went out of the tent.

This time, I came back almost at night.

After dinner and a night's rest, the next morning, the two entered the Giant Tribe again.

When McNeil handed the broadsword to Gogo, it was obvious that he was very satisfied this time, grabbing the hilt and swinging it a few times.

"Gugo is pleased with your gift, and he agrees to talk to you." Or yesterday's giant translated.

McNeil was delighted and immediately said, "The Dark Lord wants Gogo to lead your clan back to England, and he promises to give you and your people a huge piece of land, as long as you can help him occupy the Ministry of Magic and defeat Dumbledore." ”

The giant translated McNeill's words to Gugo, who reacted violently. He shouted and roared, and threatened McNeil with his broadsword.

"Gogo doesn't agree, Gogo knows Dumbledore, he's against killing the last giant of England, he's a good guy," the giant translated, "Gogo also knows that the Dark Lord is an evil and cruel wizard, and Gogo doesn't agree with your proposal." ”

"It's time for you to leave, you're not welcome here!"

McNeil's face was ugly, but looking at the fierce appearance of Gugo in front of him, he still bowed and pulled Ike away.

Along the way, McNeil was obviously suppressing the anger, and as soon as he entered the tent, he kicked the small coffee table next to the sofa.

"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it! He cursed, "We've got to think of something else!" ”

McNeill scratched his head and walked around the living room like a fly without a head. It took a while before it stopped.

Touching his chin, he seemed to remember something, and said, "No, you can't just give up!" ”

"Of course you can't just give up." Ike said calmly, "The teacher's task must be completed. ”

"I know." McNeil replied casually, sat down on the couch, thought about it again, and then said, "It looks like this Gugo won't agree, but what if we change to another Gugo?" ”

"Another Gugo?" Ike asked, with a puzzled look on his face.

"Yes, another Gugo." McNeil clapped his hands, he thought his idea was brilliant, "Giants are not peaceful guys, they will always clash for various reasons, and it is very common for them to compete for the position of leader. ”

"Then you need to find someone who wants to be the leader." "He's going to have to be strong enough to beat Gugo now." ”

"More importantly, he wants to agree to our proposal."

"Yes, yes, that's it." McNeill stood up, took two or three steps to the door, and raised his hand to lift the curtain.

"You wait here, I'll go check in the tribe, and it should be fine at night."

That being said, when McNeill returned in the evening, McNeil's face was ugly, and it was clearly not going well. He went out again early the next morning, and when he returned in the evening there was still no progress.

Two more days passed, and when McNeil came back with another frown, Ike was used to it, and just asked casually, "How was today?" ”

"Good, I've found the giant who can become the new Gugo."

"Then why do you look like this?" Ike said, "You're going to be able to kill flies on your brow." ”

"I saw Dumbledore's men, Hagrid and the Headmistress of Beauxbatons!" McNeil said, "Damn, how did they get here!" ”

"They didn't expect to come, but I didn't expect it to come so soon." Ike also frowned, touched his chin, and looked thoughtful.

"It's troublesome, little master, you should know." McNeil said, "We've fallen apart with the old Gugo, and I've only just started talking to the new giant called the tall horse......

"So you have to hurry, I guess we don't have much time, just a day or two, and the day after tomorrow at the latest is called Gao ......"

"High horses."

“…… Yes, Gao Gaoma, at the latest, he must become the new Gugo. With that, Acke paused and asked, "Are you sure that the man named Gao Gao will agree to our proposal?" ”

"I don't know, but it shouldn't be a problem." McNeil scratched his hair, looking irritated, "At least he's a little interested in my proposal, after I gave him a pair of bracers made of goblins." ”

Hearing this, Ike had a strange expression: "Didn't you bring a whole set of armor, right?" Give a portion at once? ”

"Yes, that's right, otherwise there would be so much to give to these stupid, dirty guys." McNeil's face was full of disdain, "Tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, I'll continue to deliver something to that guy named Gao Gao Ma to make sure he kills the current Gugo." ”

"But after he becomes the new Gugo, he will probably have to follow up with gifts, these damned, insatiable bunch."

McNeil scolded and scolded, and went straight back to the house after eating dinner with a stomach full of anger. The next morning, he went away again, to find the giant called the tall horse.

This time, instead of staying in the tent, Ike used a phantom spell on himself and quietly climbed up the mountainside to spy on the giant tribe.

After waiting for a while, as McNeill said, Hagrid and Maxim had already arrived. In the same way, they brought gifts to Gugo, and after talking for a while before leaving, they found a cave halfway up the opposite side of the mountain and went into it.

In the evening, McNeill came back with a much better face and a smile again.

"The tall horse has promised that he will kill Kakus tomorrow night." McNeil said, "By the way, Kakus is the name of Gugo now. ”

"Is he sure?" Ike asked, "Kakus has the great sword we gave him." ”

"No problem, because I gave the tall horse a big axe." McNeil smiled and gestured to the size of the axe, and Ike laughed too, and he saw that the axe, more than three meters long, was very large.

"Then we're waiting for the action of the tall horses tomorrow night? Today I had a sneak peek, and Hagrid and Maxime had sent gifts to Kakus and seemed to have a good conversation. ”

"It's okay, Kakus will be finished tomorrow night anyway." McNeill's face was relaxed, "Gao Gao Ma has agreed, after becoming Gugo, he will not agree to any of Hagrid's proposals, he will only talk to us." ”

"Provided, of course, that we continue to give him gifts...... Damn, giants are insatiable! ”

"The most important thing is to do the things that the teacher explains, and it doesn't matter what the gift is." Ike said, "Besides, that set of elf armor and weapons is the Malfoy family's collection, right?" ”

"That's right." McNeil's expression was relaxed and a little proud, "There are a lot of good things in their family, and this armor is nothing at all!" ”

"For now, we just have to wait......"
