Chapter Eighty-One: Ravenclaw Doesn't Speak of Martial Virtues
Neville never dreamed that he would be the first student to get up close and personal with the Hippogriff.
He stared at the group of monsters, and couldn't help but shudder, and the boy wanted to step forward, but his legs didn't obey him, and he couldn't move at all.
Seeing Neville look like this, Hagrid sighed in disappointment, did his first lesson fail like this?
Rove glanced at Neville, then at Hagrid, and took the initiative to step forward and say, "Professor Hagrid, I'll try." ”
"Oh, that's great, Rove." Hagrid exclaimed, "I mean, of course...... Mr. Scamander. ”
Rove walked slowly towards the restless group of Hippogriffs, who looked ugly at first glance, but on closer inspection, they were actually intriguing players.
In particular, the upper body has gorgeous feathers, and the lower body has silky and shiny fur...... It adds a bit of mixed beauty.
Rove picked a suit and finally walked over to a winged beast with leopard prints all over his body, and he asked:
"Hagrid, what's this guy's name?"
"This little guy's name is Poluk." Hagrid undid one of the chains, dragging Poluk away from his companion and removing its leather collar.
Poluk pressed towards Rove, glaring at the boy with his long, dark golden eyes, and it suddenly let out a scream, sharp and piercing.
All the students held their breath, and it seemed that in the next second, Rove would be splattered with blood, and his body would be in a different place.
Rove didn't retreat, but stared at the other party's sharp eyes, and there was a sudden "ding" in his brain.
[Domesticated Hippogriff Detected Triggers Side Quest 1:]
Complete Poluk's maiden ride and reward Magic:
【Hippogriff's Eyes】
[Ultra-wide field of vision, allowing you to easily see ten times the visual distance of humans]
Complete 100% Polluk Taming and reward Magic:
【Iron Tooth Copper Tooth】
[Catalyzed by magic, your teeth can be as strong as the beak of a hippony, easily tearing apart the fur and flesh of an animal]
Hurriedly glancing at the task, Rove was speechless, what the hell is this virgin riding?
Is it the kind of riding he had in mind?
Rove was furious, and quickly focused on Poluk again.
If you want to conquer a Hippogriff, you must first start with the eyes, make eye contact with it, and then bow politely.
If it also bows, then you can boldly stroke it...... It sounds weird, but it's so straightforward and brutal.
Rove and Poluk looked at each other for about thirty seconds, he didn't blink, his eyes were almost dry, and then he bent slightly, and then he bent down on his front knees, and his body sank, obviously bowing.
All the students applauded.
"Well done, Rove!" Hagrid was ecstatic, "You can touch it now!" Let's touch it! Don't keep Poluk waiting! ”
Rove walked towards the monster and reached out to it, touching its supple back several times.
"Hello, Poluk...... You're so pretty, standard stunner. ”
Poluk walked around Rove, and finally lowered his head and took the initiative to rub the boy.
"Hagrid, can I ride it?" Rove asked, turning his head.
This is Hagrid's precious daughter, and if you want to ride Poluk, you have to discuss it with him.
"Oh, of course, if Poluk ...... If you don't resist. Be careful not to pull off its feathers, it doesn't like you to do it......"
Rove gently touched Poluk's, and then he floated lightly and landed on the dorsal crest of the Hippogriff.
The boy clamped his legs and drove the sturdy hippogriff forward, then spread its wings and flew towards the sky.
It climbed as hard as it could, until it pierced the dark clouds.
At this moment, the rain dissipated, a sea of golden clouds, and the sun fell like a feather, which was gorgeous and moving.
And the position that has just been pierced is like a bed of silk being pierced by a knife, piercing a slightly inclined opening.
The Hippogriff glides through the sea of clouds, and it quickly plunges downward, and finally falls to the ground like a leaf, only to rush forward like a steed for a moment.
A man and a beast swept over the black lake, and the lake water stirred up waves under the flapping of its wings.
The Hippogriff let out an excited cry, a long, loud roar that trembled across the Black Lagoon and echoed over Hogwarts.
Many of the students heard this, and as they sat in the classroom, they couldn't help but glance out the window, and then they saw Scamander riding a mirghur riding in a circle in the sky, soaring in the wind.
"That's cool!" George couldn't help but exclaim.
"Professor McGonagall, can you change that?" Fred asked, raising his hand.
Professor McGonagall stood at the window, looking away, stunned, and after a long time came back to her senses, and said leisurely:
"Okay, all of you, you're in the fifth grade, and you still have a year to go. W. LS Exam ...... By the time you reach sixth grade, you'll be relieved and work harder. ”
North Tower,
Professor Trelawney, who was in a divination class, saw the bird outside the window, and suddenly stroked her heart with her shining hand, and exclaimed:
"Omen...... A great omen! Big murderer! ”
Rove spared Hogwarts and then flew back to the paddock, by which time the students had already made eye contact with the Hippogriff.
They also want to ride Hagrid's baby daughter!
It looks so exciting!
After Rove landed, he exchanged ideas with Hagrid, and soon found Neville again.
He hid behind the crowd and sat alone curled up under a tree, his chubby face the color of rancid milk.
"Neville, why are you sitting here?" Rove sat aside and asked, "Why don't you look at the Hippogriff?" ”
Neville whispered like a frightened animal, "I...... I'm scared. ”
"Everyone was scared for the first time." Rove comforted: "Just now many people have retreated, but you are standing where you are, have you forgotten?" ”
"That's because you're standing next to me." Neville lowered his head in pain, and he forced tears to his eyes:
"They dare to go over now, but I still don't. I thought that if I kept learning from you, it would change, but after two years, it's still like this...... I've always been the weakest and most cowardly.
So I couldn't go to Gryffindor House, which my grandmother wanted me to go to, because I lacked the courage to ......"
"Who says you don't have the courage?" Rove interrupted, "There are too many heroic cowards in this world, but you can admit cowardice like you...... It takes a bit of courage. ”
Rove put his hand on Neville's shoulder and said seriously:
"It's not that you don't have courage, you just don't have confidence!"
"Neville, do you remember when you said you wanted to avenge your parents?" The boy lowered his voice and said:
"Peter can escape, and your enemies may one day escape from Azkaban.
They are much more terrifying than the Hippogriffs, and you don't dare to look them in the eye when the time comes? ”
Neville fell silent.
"Go, come with me, go and make eye contact with the Hippogriff." Rove urged: "There are so many classmates around you, including Hagrid, and me, no one can hurt you, believe in everyone, and believe in yourself." ”
Neville nodded tremblingly, visibly trying to muster up courage, and followed Rove to a hippony-bodied winged beast.
Neville's eyes widened and he wanted to turn his head slowly, but he gritted his teeth and persevered.
"Bend over." Rove reminded.
Neville bent down, and the Hippogriff quickly bent slightly, and then it leaned over like a shadow and licked the warm tears from Neville's face.
Neville exclaimed...... But for some reason, in the blink of an eye, his sobs turned into laughter.
"Look, it's not dangerous at all." Rove smiled: "Fuck Gryffindor, later the orthodoxy of courage is in Hufflepuff!" ”
At this point, Shirley had become the second student after Rove to successfully ride on the back of a hippogriff.
The ponytail girl drove the horse, she looked at Rove condescendingly, and said with a smile: "Rove, do you want to compare?" ”
"Than what?" Rove asked, looking up.
"You ride your Porut...... Fly to the castle gate before the two of us. Shirley blinked, "The loser sings a song to the winner." ”
"Okay, you're going to lose, I'm invincible."
Rove was about to go to Porut, and Shirley had already announced:
"Game on!"
The ponytail girl smoothed the feathers for her mount, and then the eagle-headed winged beast spread its wings and flew high.
“……”
Rove secretly scolded the Ravenclaw girl for not speaking of martial virtues, and then hurriedly rode up to Porut and chased after her.

(This disease was really torturous at night, coughing and wiping snot all night, and I used a roll of paper directly last night...... But I haven't had a fever for two days, so I should be getting better...... Right? )
