Evank resisted the impulse to pull out his wand. The giants feared magic and liked to feel the magical power of magic, but they hated the wizards pointing them with their wands and using magic on them, which would make things worse.
Until now, he finally understood why Dumbledore must have sent people to come and win over these giants.
Imagine a terrible enemy like a mountain appearing on the battlefield, which brings shock and dominance...
If these giants all rely on Voldemort, his dark forces will multiply several times, and few wizards are giant opponents.
In the face of such giants, most people do not even have the courage to fight.
undefinedThey have come to the lake, and Ai Wen looks around and sees more and more giants gathered around.
He didn't know what the other three people felt, but his heart beat so badly.
Although Avon has seen many dark creatures, none of them can give people an intuitive visual stimulus like the giant.
In ancient times, the giants were invincible to defeat the behemoths. Humans once built high walls to try to resist the giants.
Fortunately, the number of giants has become very small, and the dark ages are gone forever.
Otherwise, one day, humans will recall the fear that was once dominated by them, and the humiliation that was imprisoned in the cage.
"Let's give a gift to Gugo and pay tribute!" Hagrid shouted, using English.
Most of the giants couldn't understand what he was saying, and made a rude scream, but a few giants dressed in some clothes clearly understood that they turned their heads to the opposite hilltop and made a loud noise. ....
"They went to inform the leader, we just waited here." Sirius whispered.
Ai Wen took the opportunity to look around, and before they came in, the giants separated and piled up around the lake.
A bunch of giants from Avon seem to be cooking food. They don't know where to get a huge stone pot, which is as big as Voldemort's resurrection. It is cooking meat and some grass-rooted things.
This should be a giant family, with a slightly thin female giant and three strong male giants. They also have two children. At first glance, the young giants are young. Of course, these two guys already have three. Ai Wen is so high!
They hid behind their parents and curiously looked at the four people who entered the camp, and their eyes finally fell on Ai Wen.
Ai Wen smiled at them and responded that he was indeed a rude roar.
At this moment, the giants who left initially ran back, and they rushed into the crowd.
"Human, Gu Ge wants to see you, with a gift to follow me!" A very old giant said that he was covered in brown robes, relatively neat, like a normal wizard, but worn for a long time, It was a style decades ago.
This set of clothes seems to have been changed with a magnifying spell, and certainly no one will be tailored to the size of the giant.
They walked up the hill opposite the old giant, and the giants around the lake seemed to be afraid of it and didn't keep up.
The small path built beside the cliff went straight up and they walked carefully on it.
This road was built according to the size of the giant, and it was very wide for them.
"My name is Herbert!" said the old giant. The voice of the rumble came from above the head. "I have been to Poland in the past, and I have been married and have children for a long time. I like that country." Of course, it was more than 80 years ago, and after a terrible war, I fled back!"
The old giant said as he walked, his pronunciation was not very pure, but he could barely understand it.
Then he turned his head and looked at Hagrid and Mrs. Maxim with a dim look.
"Do you both seem to have the blood of a giant?"
"My mother is Fried Wafa." Hagrid said, looking at him with concern. "She, she is still alive?"
"You are the son of Friedwafa?!" The old giant seemed to be a little surprised. He looked at Hagrid carefully. "She is still alive, but she is not very good. The giants who lived in human society like us are Alternative, in the tribe is a very low status, other giants are not willing to believe us, they think we are not trustworthy."
"My mother is still alive, where is she now?" Hagrid raised his voice and looked a little excited.
"You will see her, the son of Friedwafa! She returned to have two more children, one is dead, the other is a deformity like you, it is too short!" Herbert said. Looking at Mrs. Maxim, "So what about you?"
"My father is dead, on the battlefield!" she said simply.
"Yeah, most of the giants' endings are like this, dead in battle!" Herbert turned his head again. "We have killed too many people in the past, but the living people are not willing to learn lessons and continue to fight. Humans What are you doing here?"
"We brought a gift and a message from Dumbledore, hoping to be an ally with you!" said Sirius.
He patted Hagrid's back and motioned him to calm down.
They did not expect that they would encounter such an old giant who is easy to communicate.
The other side's thinking is very clear, not at all like a giant, but a human who grows taller.
"Albus Dumbledore?!" said the old giant. "I have heard the name of this wizard. He once opposed the killing of the last giants in Britain and helped them to leave. He is our friend. I think Kaku Sis will be interested in his words."
Ai Wen, Sirius, Hagrid, and Mrs. Maxim look at each other and things will be so smooth. !
"But don't you have too much hope. The giant needs war, not peace..." Herbert continued. "Dumbledore's concept has few supporters here. Giants like me are already different, and few giants are willing to communicate with humans. Of course, you can bring gifts, they are very happy."
Then he stopped talking and led Ai Wen and they went to the top of the mountain.
The top of the cliff is a large platform, and at the end is a cave that can't be seen.
When Avon climbed up, the platform was already full of giants. Compared with the giants below, they were taller and bigger, and they all wore simple clothes made of animal skin. Many giants still had weapons in their hands. .
In the middle is a huge stone bed, very simple, but very spacious, lying on top of two giants.
One of them is a male giant, very large, thirty-five feet long, and very ugly. It looks like a three-headed male elephant. The bare skin is like a rhinoceros. He keeps roaring and let the giant next to him give him. Feeding, your hands are busy with other things.
Needless to say, he must be the giant Gugokakus.
In his arms, there is a female giant lying down, no clothes on her body...
The female giant is about twenty feet tall and is lying on Kakus, shaking constantly, eating like him.
She should be his wife, and the surrounding giants seem to be accustomed to this, and did not feel anything bad.
The picture in front of you is particularly shocking, and they are trying to stay calm.
The surrounding giants made noisy shouts, but Mrs. Hagrid and Maxim raised the gifts high, staring at Gu Ge, and ignoring the others, and the other giants gradually calmed down.
The four of them walked over and walked to the huge stone bed, and Kakus turned his head to look at them.
undefinedHis expression was ugly and embarrassing, his eyes were fierce, and his body was covered with precious metal products.
Hagrid took a nap and put the gift in front of him.
Kakus's eyes directly crossed the goats and looked at the quietly burning Gublai Fairy with great interest.
His wife also stopped and looked at it, whispering a few words in Kakus.
Then, Kakus snarled a few times, all of which Evan couldn't understand.
"Guo asks you, what is this flame?" Herbert, who took them to the top of the mountain, walked over and said.
Mrs. Maxim explained to him in detail the ancient Bulai fairy fire and the preciousness of the flame that was burning forever.
Herbert translated these words into the past, and the surrounding giants heard what he said, and there was a commotion on the platform.
The giants seemed very happy, excited to see the ancient Bulai fairy fire, Kakus also nodded with satisfaction.
"This is a gift from Albus Dumbledore to the giant Gugo, to pay tribute!" Hagrid said.
After understanding what he meant, Kakus nodded again, and he snarled a few words with a terrible voice.
"Gugo said he took the gift!" Herbert said.
"Albus Dumbledore swears, the messenger will bring him a gift tomorrow, please Gugo talk to him." Hagrid said.
Herbert translated the past, Kakus did not care about them, turned around and continued to force the female giant in the arms...
The four men looked at each other and knew that it was time to leave. They bowed again and followed Herbert back.
The creatures of the giants, especially the giants who have not lived in human society, still maintain a rather primitive wildness, have no patience to communicate with you, must be gradual, and it is enough to leave a good impression on them.
Since the gift was received, it means that Kakus has agreed to talk to them.
Ai Wen, they followed the old giant down the platform and returned to the lake below.
When no one was there, Evans gave Herbert a well-made pocket watch and he looked very happy.
This thing has no meaning to other giants, but Herbert's giant who has been to human society knows the importance of time.
"You will come back tomorrow morning, I will be here waiting for you," Herbert said. "Kakus is different from his father, the last giant Gu Ge. He is too keen on fighting, but likes women, treasures and humans. Items made. If your gift can continue to satisfy him, I think he will agree with your request for alliance, what are your specific requirements?"
"Dumbledore agrees to give you a living allowance every year to meet your various needs, but I hope that you will not participate in the human war." Sirius said, looking up at Herbert.
"It turns out that this is very difficult. The giants like war. This is our nature." Herbert said, there seems to be some concern. "And not everyone in the tribe obeys the leadership of Kakus, there are many powerful The giant is free..."
"You mean a tall horse?" Sirius said, "We heard his name before we came."
"He is the most powerful warrior in the tribe, and there are many people who support him." Herbert lowered his voice. "I heard the giants living on the mountain say that Gao Gao has already quarreled with Kakus many times. Blatantly violated his orders."
"Hey, we have some gifts for him to express our respect. Can you help us to convey it?"
"I can give it a try!" Herbert said, cautiously looking around from the week. "But don't have too much hope. High horses are not the same as Kakus. He is the purest giant and doubts about human wizards. Very hostile, he thinks that we should rob human wealth, instead of relying on what kind of exchange or charity as it is now..."
Ai Wen took out the gift to Gao Gaoma, and Herbert hid them in his robes.
"I want to see my mother." Hagrid suddenly said, looking at Herbert, "Where is she now?"
"Follow me, I just want to go, she is not qualified to live by the lake on the side of the mountain!" said the old giant.
They walked along the hillside in the other direction, where there was a thick jungle.
The whole jungle is obviously marked by the life of giants. Many trees have been uprooted and thrown on the ground.
"They sometimes have too much energy, nowhere else to vent, just come here to play the tree!" Herbert pointed to the big tree that fell to the ground and said, "I have also been young, knowing the crazy impulse that is difficult to contain. But I am much luckier than them. I was living in Poland. There are many things around me that can distract me. I also met my wife, a human woman. She used to be my trophy, and we finally fell in love. And gave birth to two children..."
"Where are they now?" asked Ai Wen.
"I don't know, after I fled Poland, I never saw them again, and they didn't come to me." Herbert said sadly. "In fact, you are the first human beings who have been looking for over the years." The giants have many descendants outside, but you are the only ones. I think Friedwafa will be happy. She has also seen it outside, but it has not been good in the past few years."
They walked silently in the woods for more than twenty minutes, farther and farther away from the giant's lake camp.
Then, Avon suddenly saw a huge, smooth mound appearing in front of him.
The mound was almost as high as Hagrid, and the trees around it were uprooted.
It is located on a small open space, surrounded by piles of trunks and branches like fences or roadblocks, in front of several people.
But right away, Ai Wen realized that it was not a mound, but a giant who was sleeping.
He looks only sixteen feet tall and his body is slowly undulating with deep, snoring breath.
"This guy is Glopp, another child of Friedwafa." The old giant said, watching the giant lying on the ground, looking down at Hagrid, "in terms of age, he should be your mother. A friend of a different father's brother
