Chapter 346: Signal
During his third week at the Dragon Sanctuary, Kyle has grown accustomed to this sometimes hectic, sometimes laid-back life.
What's more, the harvest is quite rewarding.
These days, he had made money for two sets of anti-spell gloves just by selling those broken and defective goods, a full hundred and twenty-five Galleons.
But that's all there is to it......
At the end of the second week, the dragons had one of the fiercest and longest dogfights.
This time, even Kyle couldn't sit idle, and along with Newt and Chris, he rushed to heal three injured fire dragons, more than the previous two combined.
And by the time it was over, there were only the last two fire dragons left in the sky.
A Hungarian Tree Bee, and a Ukrainian Iron Belly...... It's not the one Kyle encountered before, this one is a bit bigger.
They rested for only a day before continuing to fight for the highest cliff.
Most of the people gathered around and waited for the final result.
In terms of size, the Ukrainian iron belly is clearly more dominant...... Charlie said it weighed about seven tons, and it was several laps larger than the Hungarian wasp when it was placed on it, and it looked like an adult dragon with a child.
But Charlie wasn't optimistic about it.
"Although they are all Ukrainian iron bellies and about the same size, they are a little less intelligent than the old Pino.
If it was the last chance it could win when everyone was flying now, but it didn't grasp it, now it's ......"
Charlie shook his head, "Being big means more consumption, and a day of rest is simply not enough, and the Hungarian tree bee obviously knows this, so it launched an attack in advance."
…… It doesn't stand a chance. ”
The truth is the same as Charlie said.
After only three hours, the movements of the Ukrainian iron belly slowed down, swaying, like a target in the sky.
Like a seasoned hunter, the Hungarian Tree Bee took advantage of its speed and quickly gained the upper hand.
Everyone can see that the outcome of this battle is already sealed, and the rest is a matter of time.
"Hogwarts is almost back to school." Feeling a little bored, Professor Rocknier walked up to Kyle and asked in a low voice, "Is it September too?" ”
"September 1st." Kyle said, "There are less than two weeks left. ”
"When school starts, you'll be in the fourth grade."
"Yes." Kyle nodded.
"Interested in transferring to Beauxbatons?" Professor Locknier said suddenly, "If it's you, I guarantee that you will be able to use the best materials when you are in the alchemy class." ”
Kyle looked at Professor Rocknier, his head full of question marks.
No, what are Beauxbatons' habits, persuade people to transfer when they meet?
Their principal Maxim is like this, and so is the professor, what's the matter, could this be the content of their induction training?
"I'm sorry, I don't have that idea right now."
After a moment of silence, Kyle shook his head and said, "And it's going to happen next year. I took the exam, and it is not suitable to transfer at this time. ”
"It's okay, it's okay, I'll just ask, you don't have to care......"
Professor Locknier waved his hand repeatedly, then leaned over to Kyle's side and whispered, "Actually, Lady Maxim asked me to ask...... When I was writing to her the other day, I overheard her about the situation here, and she seemed to want you to transfer to Beauxbatons.
Do you know each other? ”
To be honest, when Maxim asked him to dig into the wall in the letter, he was actually quite confused.
I think it's a bit rude to do this, but for the sake of money, I can't help it.
It's not just defective products that he's buying. And the complete material, as well as the dragon's blood, these are the big heads.
Although he didn't receive much each time, the three times together cost him nearly a thousand Galleons, which must have been reimbursed by the school.
That's why he wrote to Ms. Maxim by reporting the situation, and by the way, he reminded her to hurry up and get the money ready.
Who knew that the money was not sent, but there was an extra task to dig up the foot of the Hogwarts wall......
But either way, he's done.
"Ms. Maxim?"
Kyle thought for a moment and said, "I saw her once in Paris during my vacation last year. ”
"Oh...... It's no wonder. ”
Professor Locknier suddenly said, "I remember that she rarely left France, and it should be impossible to know the young wizards of Hogwarts under normal circumstances." ”
As the two spoke, the battle between the two fire dragons was also coming to an end.
Without any surprises, the Hungarian tree bee won.
It stood on the cliff, roaring, spitting mushroom-shaped clouds of fire into the sky.
There was also a dragon roar one after another...... That's an expression of surrender.
"It's finally over." Charlie rubbed his forehead.
He hadn't had a good rest for more than a month, and his spirit had been tense before, but now he suddenly relaxed, only to feel as if his head had been punched hard, and it was uncomfortable.
I should be able to rest for a few days.
Although he still has a lot to do after that, he is not in a hurry, just take his time......
"Roar!"
Another dragon roar.
Unlike the previous voices expressing submission, this roar was full of anger.
Charlie was startled and snapped back to his senses.
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound......
It was an Australian albumen-eye, and instead of lying on the ground like the other dragons, it flew in the air, angrily spewing dragon flames into the ground.
At the same time, a dazzling red light exploded next to it, leaving a large spherical pattern in midair.
That's a signal peculiar to dragon breeders.
"Damn...... Those cunning hyenas! ”
Charlie hurriedly got on his broom and flew in that direction.
"Someone's paying attention to the dragon eggs."
As if sensing Kyle's confusion, Professor Locknier whispered, "That's a signal unique to the Dragon Sanctuary, red for an unknown intruder, and a ball for a dragon egg." ”
"Are we going to help?" Kyle asked.
"No, someone has already gone." Chris walked over and shook his head.
"That's right." Locknier laughed, "The reserve has long guessed that this will happen, and since two weeks ago, there have been people guarding every nest of dragon eggs.
And there is a special protective magic on the dragon egg, so you can't apparition with it. ”
As he spoke, more and more dragon farmers also rushed to the vicinity of the Australian Protein Eye.
But a few minutes later, two more red lights exploded in the south, followed by two more in the north......
There were seven places in total, and all of them were far away and in different directions.
"So many people, and at the same time...... Looks like they've planned it for a long time. ”
Chris was a little surprised, but his expression didn't change at all.
