Chapter 339: Unexpected Smoothness

Before that, Mrs. Maxim had always felt that this Liu was a tricky and tricky, indiscriminate, and mixed wages in school.

Half a semester has passed, and he has not taken a single class seriously, let alone taught anything to the students.

Although the students are very fond of this professor.

Because most of them are always able to solve problems in class – in a variety of ways, they rarely write homework.

Sometimes, Madame Maxime even suspected that Liu was actually a Muggle. Sneaking into the school of magic had a different plan, as he rarely cast a spell for a few months.

But now that you think about it, the ancient land of the Ming Dynasty was indeed pregnant with a splendid magical civilization, and they had countless sages and brilliant genius wizards, could it be that this was indeed a novel way of teaching?

Is she lonely and unheard?

Madame Maxim fell into deep thought. In deep contemplation.

It's a good thing that Owen can't hear her, otherwise he would have yelled - Professor, don't hypnotize yourself, okay?

That dog thing, it's just mixing wages!

If you don't fire him quickly, what are you waiting for?

Waiting for students to become immortals on the magic avenue of self-epiphany?

Don't be funny!

Just then, the giants who had left initially returned.

As soon as she arrived, the giants immediately made a way to make a difference.

"Human, Roppus Titan is allowed to see you, come with me, with gifts."

The giantess was dressed in a much more ornate garment than the giant, a large robe that resembled a whole piece of linen, with all kinds of colored images on it, and the earth was painted with flowers and trees in the mountains.

But it is such a piece of clothing, but it is especially precious in the world of giants.

Because it represents the flame of civilization.

Owen and the others followed the giant to the ruined town over there.

Beyond the ruins, they did not stop, but kept walking towards the mountain ahead, in the distance.

The giantess was slow, obviously deliberate, and she was controlling her distance from a group of wizards.

About ten minutes later.

They came to a lakeside.

In the snow-capped mountains in the distance, after the snow melts, countless streams converge into rivers, and the great rivers continue to flow, eventually forming this lake.

On both sides of the lake, bonfires and tents are raised.

The bright green tents were new, very tall, fifty feet high, and had apparently been given to the giants recently.

Sirius's face turned unpleasant, as it might mean that the Death Eaters were ahead of them.

"Humans, what are you here for?"

In the open-air tent, on a huge rock, lay a tall male giant, who looked more than thirty feet tall, lying on the stone like a mountain.

His English is very pure, with the tone of the old rice flag, it is hard to believe that the giant can speak English so well.

Of course, this is not the most noticeable, it is his forehead that is even more noticeable.

The giant's eyes were closed, but there was a large eye on his forehead.

There seemed to be a flash of thunder in his blue and white pupils, and at this time, he was staring at the group of wizards.

Hagrid held up the present, and the Eternal Flame burned.

Owen could notice a hint of fear in the peeking eyes around him.

They all seem to know this flame, and even more so the power of this flame.

"We've brought gifts and a message from Dumbledore, hoping to be allies with you!" Hagrid said.

"Dumbledore?" The giant's face was embarrassed, and then he looked back at an old giantess sitting beside him.

It was a gray-haired, drooping twin peaks—and a sagging giantess.

- The point is that the area is so large that it's hard not to notice.

"Albus Dumbledore?" The giantess had a hideous wound on her face, and a huge hole in her cheek through which you could even see her yellowed teeth.

One of her eyes was white, apparently blind, and the other was also full of exhaustion, and when she spoke, she was forced, "I know him, he was against killing the last of the British giants, and helping us leave, he is my friend, and the clan will ally with you." ”

"Huh?"

Things went a little surprisingly well.

Owen suddenly realized.

It turns out that the current giants are the same British giants that they were back then, so it's no wonder that Dumbledore is confident that they agreed to form an alliance and knew about their existence.

"But—"

Well—it's a big gasp, too, and Owen has a look on his face.

But the old giantess didn't notice, "The other tribes won't heed our call, and I can only do my best to contact as many of my kind as I can."

And - the life of the giants is very difficult, if you can provide a batch of necessities every year to meet our needs, I think your purpose will be easily achieved. ”

"That's fine." Sirius said, looking up at the giantess earnestly.

"Good." The giantess nodded, then motioned for them to leave the Eternal Flame behind and leave.

The next time we talk, I guess we'll have to wait until they find supplies.

Realistic enough.

Sirius and Hagrid looked at each other, then left the blue flame behind and retreated.

As he left, Owen glanced at the giantess deliberately.

In her, he felt the shadow of a Muggle politician.

Calm, smart, and simple words have won enough benefits for their own clan, and they are saying that their own clan can rule the entire giant clan.

Why is she so confident?

Owen's gaze fell on the cyclops again.

Is that him?

Cyclops - Possessing the initial power of the Crucible of Life, a 'deformed', 'atavistic' giant, this creature is indeed gifted in some ways.

Relying on cyclops to unify the giant clan is not a difficult task.

Outside.

The four of them camped on the other side of the lake and began to discuss the next issues.

"It went much smoother than expected." The godfather of the dog seemed very happy, after all, the more quickly he could solve the matter here, the faster he could go back to London.

He didn't want to be in that stupid Muggle family anymore.

If it weren't for Dumbledore's request, he would have disowned Harry from the family.

"Smooth - stains, if they can appear in this story, then it will definitely not go well." Owen whispered, something must have happened, this place is weird, to be honest, like a prison.

That's right, prison.

Huge open-air prison.

If it's just to expel the giants, there is no need for the wizard to make such trouble, find an island to drive the giants up, isn't it over?

Besides, this city in the sky, its area seems to be far larger than the one that just rode on Bakar's back, and looked at it from a distance.

It's clear that an infinite stretch spell has been cast here.

But this brings us to the problem that the wireless stretching spell can only magnify the size of the isolated space of the box, the house, and the house, and it cannot change the scale of the known universe.

Wizards are not allowed to chant incantations on the Earth, praying that the incantation will change the Earth's land area so that humans can have more space to live.

Therefore, this city in the sky should be in a confined space, and the sun and clouds in the sky may be fake.

"It did go well." Madame Maxim said.

"Then I'll go back and prepare." As he spoke, Sirius pulled out a prayer wheel.

A golden one, with intricate ciphertext carved on the surface, and the middle bone seems to be a prayer wheel made of some kind of bone.

It looks like a miniature version of the one in the Room of Requirement. (Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them appears in Part III.) )

Owen had learned from Dumbledore about the origin of Hogwarts' massive prayer wheel.

He said it was given to him by a wizard friend of Daming.

It is a replica of Shangri-La, another Daming magic school located in Kunlun, the treasure of the town, the legendary artifact.

The legendary Shangri-La, an alchemical creation from a thousand years ago, is composed of three huge bells at the top, middle and bottom, representing longitude, dimension and height respectively.

As long as it is oriented, it can theoretically take the wizard anywhere in the world.

As for this one in Sirius's hands - presumably an imitation of an imitation.

"Look at him, Hagrid. Don't let him get into trouble. As soon as he left, Sirius was still relieved of Owen.

He said solemnly to the other two.

Then wave the warp cylinder.

The portkey activates instantly.

His figure suddenly twisted, as if it had been sucked into by something, and then disappeared in place.

After Sirius left.

Hagrid pulled out the tent from the package behind him.

They set up luxurious tents by the lakeside with the Black family imprint.

The next thing is to wait.

Wait for the return of the Dog Godfather.

Owen sat on the edge of the lake, watching Shylock treading water by the lake, and he contorted a fishing rod and fished straight to the hook.

Let's see if there's anything to gain today.

Time passed minute by minute, and Owen didn't expect Sirius to come back today, how could it be so simple to prepare supplies, what to prepare for the giant, how much would it take? It will be an astronomical amount.

Even if you empty Hogwarts, you won't be able to make up that much.

Anyway, Owen couldn't figure out where Dumbledore was going to find so much food.

Towards noon, the three of them began to cook, and the aroma of the food heated by the flame attracted the side eyes of many giants, but most of them just looked at it drooling, maybe it was the order of the English giantess, maybe it was the little food in Owen's hand, it was not enough for them to stuff their teeth.

In short, they didn't come forward to fight.

This is very different from the giant in the public image.

Sure enough, this group of giants from England is no longer the same as the giant tribe in the wasteland.

Owen is not clear whether this change is good or bad.

But no one was fighting him for food, which undoubtedly allowed him to cast Avada a few times less today.

Halfway through the meal.

The tall giants had largely stopped paying attention to them.

But the children of the giants. The little giants of a dozen feet were still watching curiously.

Then, just as Owen was about to make a second bowl, a relatively diminutive giant, about sixteen or seventeen feet tall, approached them quietly from the other side of the lake.

It was a round-faced, head-topped with curly, bushy windtail hair.

On the top of the head, the edge of a large ear with bulging flesh can be seen, and the head grows directly over the shoulder, with almost no neck in between.

He first walked through a dense wood, then over the boulders on the riverbank, and approached them step by step.

"Go away!" Hagrid got up and chased away the short, somewhat unusual-looking giant.

However, it was obviously useless, even if his arms were waving fast, but the giant was not afraid of him at all, and did not seem to have any intention of retreating.

Instead, he kept his head out and looked over to Owen.

"He's dressed." Madame Maxim said lightly.

"So what?" Hagrid hadn't reacted yet.

"I mean, look at the giant around him, how can he wear such 'decent' clothes, he should have been in contact with humans, or his parents had contact with humans."

Madame Maxim added, "Look at the hides on him. ”

The giant wore a dirty, brown smock that looked as if it had been coarsely sewn from animal skin, and the back was very broad.

A large tree is depicted on the chest, which clearly carries some kind of religious or parental expectation in it.

"I don't think his parents are simple."

Madame Maxim's words made Hagrid think about it, and it was a good thing that they had met a giant who had come into contact with wizards.

Anyway, if you have come into contact with wizards, these giants are always smarter, and maybe they can increase their own negotiation space and fight for a greater voice.

Then Hagrid came to his senses, first provoking the goofy-looking giant with food, and then asking them to take him to his parents.

And after four or five minutes of smoke in his throat and Rory chattering, the fool was still unmoved.

Doesn't seem to understand what he's saying.

Then, under the smiling gaze of Hagrid and Madame Maxim, the stupid big man suddenly took out a large handful of flowers from behind his back.

Then he crouched down and placed all the petals in front of Owen with both hands.

"Poof!" Madame Maxim couldn't help but laugh.

"He's probably thinking of you like a girl."

"Hahaha!"

Hagrid let out a hearty laugh as well.

It's not some kind of sneer, it's some kind of smile that only comes out when you encounter something interesting.

However, compared to the shock of the two professors, Owen's performance was much calmer.

It's not that he says he can be confessed three or four times a week.

Even if the entire Hogwarts wizards knew that Miss Granger had become his girlfriend, the 'daily clock-in' behavior was not over.

Anyway, those girls hold the 'punch in' once a day, and they don't lose money, what if they make it?

And—listen to Justin and Hannah, during the three months he was in a coma, there was nothing but a constant stream of girls visiting.

There were quite a few boys - some even shed tears on the spot.

Owen got goosebumps as he listened.

So, he's immune to this kind of thing for a long time.

Owen held out his hand, and the petals hovered in his hand as if they were inspired.

Then he waved his hand, and the petals were like wind, blowing through the body of the stupid giant in front of him, and falling into the grass beach in the distance.

The next second.

Countless flowers of all kinds grew out of the soil. The grass beach was transformed into a garden in an instant.

"What do you say you're picking these flowers and plants for?"

"Isn't the life of the flower a life?"

With that, Owen smiled slightly, and the soles of his feet slammed on the ground, and countless ice crystals sprouted from under his feet.

In an instant, the white mist filled the air, and the fool giant was frozen in place.

"Keep your eyes open and repent of your sins, idiot!" With that, Owen overlooked his head arrogantly, and his long silver hair swept over his ears, covering the last trace of emerald green gaze.

For this kind of blue-barrel, at Hogwarts, his method of dealing with it is generally to freeze people in place, that is, to cool them down, but also to bind them for a day or two as a punishment, and to increase the memory of the group of stupid people who are using their energy in the wrong place.

Owen is back at his fishing spot.

Madame Maxim smiled and waved her wand, dispelling the magic from the giant.

After waking up from freezing, the stupid giant seemed to be frightened.

Crying and screaming, he ran towards the forest.

Hagrid immediately understood that the child was going to his mother.

He immediately followed.

Madame Maxim wanted to stop him, after all, it might be dangerous to go to the forest alone.

But the stupid giant was running too fast, even with Hagrid.

She didn't have time to open.

Then, she wanted to follow, but after seeing Owen, who had already jumped into the lake and had started a fight with the fish, she quickly sat back in her chair.

"Damn, it's early in the morning, don't bite the hook, I'm X, don't bite the hook, right!"

Owen, who jumped into the lake, came out of his head.

He had a live fish in his hand.

The lake drenched his clothes, and his long silver and black hair was all attached to the top of his head, and the broken hair between his forehead was clinging to his cheeks.

And he, with a round hand, went up and gave the stupid freshwater fish a slap.

"Don't bite the hook, right, don't bite the hook?"

"Shylock, come here and give it to me!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the little white cat swam merrily, came to him, and bit the tail of the stupid fish with its mouth open.

Then he happily swam back to the shore.

"Uh-" Madame Maxim, who saw this scene, really couldn't say anything, and the corners of her mouth raised slightly.

This kid - despite his magic, he's still a kid after all.

"Hmm, Professor, what are you stealing fun?" Owen walked over from the lake and bent down to pick up his fishing rod from the ground.

Then with one palm, it was split in half!

– no more fishing.

"No, nothing." Madame Maxim said calmly.

"I saw it all." Owen threw the hook into the lake and walked towards her.

"Aren't you going to look for your mother? Maybe it's on this island! ”

The combination of a human wizard and a giant can only be a wizard and a giantess, as for why, think for yourself!

"No-" Lady Maxim's face suddenly turned ugly at the sound, "she has died in the War of the Giants, there are no people like Dumbledore in France, the wizards forcibly expelled them, and a conflict broke out in the process." ”
