Chapter Seventy-Eight: Buckbeak
Eight o'clock in the evening, outside Hagrid's residence.
Rosie, emerging from the shadows, looked at the Hippogriff tethered to a tree, and remembered what Hagrid had just said.
"Hippogriffs are a proud race, and if you want to be recognized by Buckbeak, the first thing you need to do is not to be timid and not let it think that you look down on it."
Then bow to it and look into its eyes. If it bows to you as well, then you can try to pet its feathers......"
Rosie slowly approached, and Buckbeak, who had been kneeling on the ground, suddenly got up and looked at her with an alarming gaze.
"Good evening! Buckbeak. ”
Rosie subconsciously bowed, but then reacted again.
What am I doing, what a fool! They all said that it was a bowing salute.
Laughing at himself in embarrassment, Rossi straightened up and took two steps closer to Buckbeak, then slowly bowed and saluted.
That should be fine, right?
The ocean-blue eyes met its round eyes, and Rosie tried her best not to blink.
It's a bit like the rumored Boiling Eagle, but it doesn't take that long.
After about a minute, Buckbeak bent his neck and bowed to Rossi as well.
It worked!
Rejoicing, Rossi stepped forward again to its side, raising his hand to rub his hand lightly against the soft feathers around its neck.
This touch happened to touch the hemp rope that was strangled around its neck to restrict its movement.
Hagrid, although he loves magical beasts, is not gentle at all.
Rosie grunted, reaching out to untie the rope.
Feeling the restriction on his neck disappear, Buckbeak immediately got up and shook the dust off his body.
Then, it rubbed its head against Rossi's arm affectionately, and then crouched down again.
"If Buckbeak asks you to sit on it, don't say no, or you'll lose the chance to be friends with it."
Thinking of Hagrid's words, Rosie had no choice but to bite the bullet and ride on its back.
Don't have riding skills!
Rosie prayed to herself.
No sooner had she sat down than Buckbeak flapped his wings and ran forward.
As it ran, Rosie felt her body rise and fall, as if it might fall at any moment, and she reached out to hug its neck.
The sound of the horse's hooves of tapping and tapping died away, and Buckbeak flapped his wings and flew into the air.
The scenery on both sides quickly receded, and a fierce wind blew in front of you.
This made Rossi suddenly feel an unrestrained pleasure in his heart.
"Haha! Buckbeak, fly a little higher! She screamed excitedly.
Hearing this, Buckbeak, who had not soared for a long time, let out a long roar and flapped his wings and flew upwards with all his might. In the blink of an eye, he actually got into the dark clouds.
The damp sensation seeped into Rosie's skin, but at the moment, her brain was in a state of excitement, and she didn't feel cold at all, but cheered with high emotions.
After a moment of weaving through the clouds, Buckbeak swooped down through the clouds.
Rossi hugged its neck with one hand, and wiped its face with the other, wiping the moisture off it.
At that moment, a bolt of lightning suddenly pierced the sky.
With this light that illuminated the entire heavens and the earth, Rossi suddenly saw countless cloak-like black shadows flying in his direction.
Dementors? They're coming at me?!!
Rosie was shocked, and it was then that she realized that they had moved away from Hogwarts:
"Buckbeak, get out of the way!"
However, she didn't need to be reminded at all, Buckbeak, who had just noticed the anomaly, swung his wings forward at the same time, and his body suddenly stopped in midair.
Immediately after, it flipped around and flew straight in the direction it had come from.
Thundered!
Accompanied by the earth-shattering thunder, raindrops fell overhead.
Rosie subconsciously looked up, only to catch another flash of lightning, and happened to see a Dementor coming out of the ethereal clouds.
These monsters just targeted me?
Rossi suddenly had a guess in his heart.
The rain became more and more intense, and in the blink of an eye, Rossi's clothes were already soaked.
Faced with the encirclement and interception of the Dementors, Buckbeak tried his best to dodge and escape.
However, as time passed, its speed slowed down significantly due to excessive physical exertion.
Through the frequent flashes of thunder and lightning, Rossi could clearly see that the Dementors were approaching at a rapid pace.
At this time, there were still hundreds of meters away from the edge of the Forbidden Forest at Hogwarts, and with Buckbeak's physical strength at this time, I am afraid that there would be no way to send her to the Forbidden Forest before the Dementors caught up.
Not to mention that the Forbidden Forest is also wide, and the Dementors dare not enter Hogwarts Castle, but they may not dare to enter the Forbidden Forest.
No, they must be able to enter the Forbidden Forest.
Recalling the original plot, Rosie secretly made a decision in her heart that she couldn't go on like this!
Stroking Buckbeak's feathers, which were soaked in sweat or rain, Rosie asked in a calm and clear voice:
"Buckbeak, would you like to be my companion and travel this world with me?"
As if sensing something, Buckbeak screamed in a high-pitched voice, as if in response to Rossi's question.
Rosie drew out the pet system and pressed the contract button on Buckbeak under him.
"Ding, the other party's favorability meets the minimum standard of the contract, and the contract is successful."
"Congratulations to player Rosie for getting his new pet: Hippogriff, you'll be its lifelong companion, please be kind!"
As the system prompt sounded, the three-dimensional pattern of Buckbeak suddenly appeared in the pet system.
Click on the pattern details, and the information about Buckbeak will be displayed immediately:
Buckbeak (Hippogriff), Level: 41, HP: 8800/8800, HP: 18/100, Hunger: 21/100, Loyalty: 100 (Loyalty below 30 will have a chance to break the contract......
Due to the time constraints, Rosie only glanced at its information and immediately put it into the pet system.
Quietly, Buckbeak under him disappeared suddenly.
Under the influence of gravity, Rossi slammed to the ground.
The Dementors behind him immediately leaned in after him, and in an instant they were around Rossi.
In such a dangerous situation, Rosie did not panic at all and grabbed forward with her right hand, and the broomstick in the inventory was caught in her hand.
The Dementor, who was about to fly to the same level as himself, opened his mouth, and Rossi swung his right hand down with force. As the whole person floated up, her left hand held the silver alchemy pocket watch that fluttered in front of her as she fell rapidly.
In the next second, Rosie, who was surrounded by countless Dementors in mid-air, pressed the mechanism hard.
A silvery-white glow burst violently from her clenched pocket watch.
On this dark and rainy night, this light seems to illuminate the whole world.
……
In the Headmaster's office at Hogwarts, Dumbledore, who was communicating with Snape about something, stood up sharply and looked out the window in disbelief.
