Cyrus pretended to be suspicious and annoyed, and continued to ask:

"So you've never- never attacked anyone?"

"No," said the old spider resentfully, "I have this instinct, but out of respect for Hagrid, I have never hurt a person. The body of the murdered girl was found in a bathroom. And I've never seen anywhere in the castle except the cupboard I grew up in. We spiders love darkness and silence......"

"But at the time...... Do you know what killed the girl? Harry said, "Because whatever it was, and now it's back and attacking people—"

Suddenly, there was a clattering sound, and countless long legs were moving in a scurry; Huge black shadows dangled around them.

"The guy who lives in the castle," said Aragog, "is an ancient creature that we spiders fear the most." I remember vividly that when I felt the beast moving around the school, I begged Hagrid to let me go. ”

"What is it?" Harry asked urgently, and the truth was in sight.

The clattering and clattering became louder, and the squirming sounded louder, and the spiders seemed to be surrounding, and they became very frightened and impatient.

"We don't say it!" Aragog said violently, "We don't name it!" I didn't even tell Hagrid the name of that terrible creature, though he asked me, many times. ”

Harry didn't want to ask about it anymore, especially as the spiders were gathering from all sides, and Ron seemed to be on the verge of fainting, his face whiter than the powder on the wall, and he pinched Harry hard, revealing a look of fear and begging.

Aragog didn't seem to want to speak. It slowly retreated into its hemispherical web.

"It looks like we can't ask anything, but at least we got a little bit of information." Cyrus said, staring at the spider.

The spiders seemed to be unable to restrain themselves, moving slowly, inch by inch, towards them.

"Then let's go." Harry also realized that something was wrong, and shouted desperately at Aragog as he heard the rustling of leaves behind him.

Ron seemed to hear of redemption.

"Let's go?" Cyrus said slowly, "I don't think it's going to let us go like this......"

"You're right, I don't think you're leaving—" Aragog's white eyes were still moving, he couldn't see anything, but he could still perceive it. As it gets older, it has lost much control over the colony.

A Hagrid is enough, and if you blindly prevent the spider swarm from eating these self-inflicted humans, it is likely that the spider swarm will revolt against it.

"But—but—"

"My sons and daughters obeyed my orders and did no harm to Hagrid. But fresh human flesh comes to my door automatically, and I can't stop them from enjoying it. Farewell, Hagrid's friend......"

Cyrus turned, and a few paces away, high above him, spiders formed a solid, towering wall of copper, large claws clattering, and many pairs of eyes gleaming on those ugly black heads......

Harry felt like he was drowning at the bottom of the sea, suffocated by the countless spiders. Not to mention Ron, who was stupid and motionless, but even if he was fine, he probably wouldn't be able to help, and that wand wouldn't do anything.

Harry tried to draw his wand and fight the spiders to the death, but was held back by Cyrus.

"Let me come, you find a chance to take Ron away."

"But ......"

Leave "Mr. Riddle" here alone?

Harry looked at the spiders who couldn't see their heads at a glance and immediately shook his head, "We can't leave you behind!" ”

Even Ron, who was so frightened that he didn't have any strength at all, nodded, he was more worried about his sister, what would Ginny do if Cyrus died here? He used Ginny's body.

"Don't worry, the eight-eyed giant spider can't kill me yet, you will find a chance to leave first, and I don't have to worry about you when I escape." Cyrus now wants to separate Harry and Ron, otherwise how can he perform a ritual that looks a little evil?

The eight-eyed spider wanted to eat them, so why wouldn't he want to trade the life of the eight-eyed spider for his own rebirth?

"But?"

"Worried I'm no match for them?" Cyrus easily knocked a spider the size of a car away, and when Harry nodded, he smiled and said, "Don't worry, I was deliberately caught by them in the first place, otherwise how would I find their nest?" ”

Harry and Ron were still hesitant.

"Alright, trust me! Ginny is my friend too, and I'd rather you two die than get her hurt!" ”

"Okay!"

Harry agreed, but he didn't know how to get out of here. There were so many of them that even as Cyrus kept knocking the approaching spiders away, they still surrounded the surrounding area.

At this moment, a high-pitched and long voice suddenly sounded, and a dazzling light illuminated the entire recess.

Mr. Weasley's car rumbled down the slope, its headlights blaring, and its horn screaming, knocking the spiders aside; Several spiders were knocked to the ground on their backs, and countless long legs danced in the air. With a screeching sound, the car came to a halt in front of Harry and Ron, and the door slammed open.

"Get up there!" Cyrus emptied the spiders around the car and pushed them into the car.

Harry and Ron struggled to adjust their positions.

"Take this dog with you!" Cyrus shouted as he grabbed what looked like a wilted hound and threw it into the back seat. The door slammed shut.

Ron didn't touch the accelerator, but the car didn't need him to do anything; The engine roared, and they set off.

But it was impossible for the spiders to watch their mouths of food escape, they blocked the way, and many of the eight-eyed spiders looked bigger than cars, and stopped in front of them like a hairy hill.

Harry and Ron in the car turned pale, not knowing what to do.

At this moment, a violent red light suddenly lit up outside the glass, and then a loud bang was heard, and the huge spider in front of them was blown to pieces, and the entire road was emptied.

Harry and Ron, who were in the car, hurriedly turned around and saw Cyrus standing in the midst of the spider swarm, pointing his wand at the exit. They don't understand until now just how good this once-known "Mr. Riddle" really is.

Without any obstacles, the car sped up the slope and off the hollow.
