章節 71: Chapter 70: The Main Plot Returns

"Dragon eggs?!" Harley blurted out.

Hagrid was stunned for a moment, then smiled very happily, "Harley, do you know about them?!"

Harley nodded, "It's really a dragon egg! I've only seen similar patterns in books before."

Ted felt a little envious of Harley. The Potter + Black family's book collection is a huge treasure trove.

Think about how the four Marauders made the Marauder's Map and completed the Animagus transformation when they were students. This is inseparable from the strong heritage of the two families.

Now, Harley is at your fingertips~

Hagrid looked as if he had met a close friend. He was as happy as a kid weighing three to four hundred pounds, with a wide smile on his face.

"Yes, dragon egg! It's guaranteed to be genuine! This is a Norwegian Ridgeback dragon egg, very precious~" There was joy and pride in his voice.

Maybe it's his nature; he is particularly fond of, or obsessed with, those huge and ferocious beasts!

"Hatching dragon eggs artificially is not easy. I have to turn it over every three hours and prepare a lot of related books!" He pointed to a pile of books on the table at one side.

This is a book about raising dragons that Hagrid borrowed from the library. He just doesn't know how reliable it is.

"Fire Dragon, from Birth to Being Made into a Prop"

"Raising Fire Dragons for Recreation and Profit"

"From Fire Dragon Egg to Being Burnt to Death"

"Guide to Raising a Fire Dragon"

Well, it doesn't look very reliable. Anyway, Ted didn't think it was a serious recipe to feed the young dragon whiskey with chicken blood.

Speaking of which, I still have a dragon egg! Furthermore, Azeroth produces red dragon eggs, which are much more advanced than fire dragons.

How to incubate is a problem, and the origin cannot be explained clearly...

Everyone looked at the dragon eggs placed in the charcoal fire of the stove, and they were a little surprised.

Ron asked in a daze, "Hagrid, is it illegal to raise a dragon?"

Hagrid's face fell at this sentence, "Uh~ It's not that, um, we are different..."

Hermione asked another question, "Does Dumbledore know?"

"Ah…" Hagrid opened his mouth and lost his voice completely.

Ted didn't think it was a big deal at first glance. Hagrid couldn't be kind enough to ask him and others to share his secrets and joys, but in the end, he and others were given a heavy blow.

He waved his hand and said, "Those things will be discussed later. At least there is no need to think about it until the dragon grows too big to be kept in the house."

He looked at Hagrid, who was visibly relieved.

That's right, that's true. Hagrid is very naive in this regard and has a very optimistic feeling. I will worry about tomorrow. Today I will hatch the eggs first~

Ted put the conversation away, and everyone stopped thinking about the illegality of raising dragons and began to admire the dragon eggs.

After all, they are all little wizards, and they don't care about laws and the like at all. Instead, there are living dragon eggs in front of them. This is really fun!

This is the dragon egg written in the book. Who has seen it before? This thing is something that even money can't buy in the market.

"Hey, by the way, Hagrid, where did your dragon egg come from?" Harley suddenly asked.

Not only is it illegal to raise dragons, but it is also illegal to buy and sell dragon eggs. Especially the Norwegian Ridgeback dragon eggs, which were probably smuggled from the wizarding world of other countries.

"Hmm~" Hagrid scratched his head a little embarrassedly, "I won it playing cards~"

He grinned, "That guy still wants to beat me? Haha, naive! Humph~"

"You won it by playing cards?" No one expected that the origin of this was so legendary?

Hagrid told everyone with great interest how he met the smuggler who hid his head and tail at the Pig's Head Bar in Hogsmeade Village, and how the other party was worried that he couldn't get rid of the dragon egg, and finally played cards with him. Drinking wine, discussing the topic of magical animals, and finally losing the dragon egg to himself...

"Haha, this guy is worried that I can't cope with it. I told him that Fluffy, who has three heads, is also docile in my hands. I only need to play some music for it, and it will sleep honestly!"

Hermione discovered the key keenly, "Fluffy with three heads?"

"It's that three-headed dog!" Harley immediately thought of the three-headed dog that left a deep impression on her—the big three-headed dog that sprayed saliva all over her body.

"Is that three-headed dog yours?" Ron asked.

He finally understood why Hagrid would take the risk of raising a dragon. After all, he already had a three-headed dog the size of a room, so a dragon was nothing, right?

Jerry swallowed hard. When he saw it for the first time, he was really shocked by the three-headed dog that had its tail all over the floor. I'm just worried that this dog is nosy~

That three-headed dog is so fierce; its head is as big as a normal round table, and it can probably eat half a fan of ribs in one bite.

Although many of the little wizards opened the door on the third floor, no one dared to try to open the secret door guarded by the three-headed dog.

The whining sound of the three heads alone is louder than that of a tractor. Let alone the little wizard, not even Professor Quirrell and the crippled Voldemort were stumped?

Harley and the others, who were naughty and curious, thought about it for a week or two and there was nothing they could do, so they gave up.

If Hagrid hadn't mentioned it today, he would have completely forgotten about this dog.

Hagrid was obviously panicked at this time, "No, Fluffy was not raised by me. I didn't..."

When he saw everyone staring at him, he sighed again and gave up, "Okay, it's me! I bought Fluffy from a Greek smuggler. He was less than a month old at the time and was older than my hands aren't much bigger."

"That smuggler obviously didn't know how to take care of it. It was almost tortured to death. I can't watch it die like this?!" Hagrid glanced at Hermione as he said that he wanted to prove Fluffy's origins. So, he added: "Dumbledore knows about Fluffy. It was Dumbledore's idea to help guard the door... Oh!" He covered his mouth suddenly, feeling that he had missed something.

No matter what Hagrid wanted to hide, Harley was extremely excited - the questions he had been having for half a year were finally revealed.

She quickly urged, "What on earth is Dumbledore hiding that requires a three-headed dog to guard it?"

Hagrid leaned back as if there was some dangerous beast in front of him, "No! No! I don't know, I didn't..."

"Say it, Hagrid! You know it!"

"I have no idea!"

"Say it!"

"I can't say!"

"Look, you still know!"

"Oh, my God, don't force me. I can't, I promised not to say anything." Hagrid was obviously tricked—from never admitting to not being able to say, which is equivalent to admitting.

Ted supported from the side: "But you have already mentioned the weakness of the three-headed Fluffy."

"I didn't!" Hagrid still insisted.

"Didn't you tell the person who lost your dragon egg?"

"Ah..." Hagrid made a sound from his throat and was speechless again.

Hermione continued to hit the target: "Yes, let's play music, right?"

"No, don't..." Hagrid's voice was so full of pity that Neville couldn't bear to look at it and had to turn his face away.

Harley continued to insert the knife: "Even if you don't say it, we can play music to make it fall asleep, and then open the door to see it ourselves."

"No! No! You can't! That's the secret between Dumbledore and Nicolas Flamel... Oh!" Hagrid covered his mouth again, and this time he really didn't speak.

No matter how Ted and Harley teased him, he covered his mouth and said nothing.

This trick works. After all, if you don't speak, you won't leak anything. But what's the use of this. After all, the key information has been revealed.

"Nicholas Flamel? I have a vague impression of this name. Where have I seen it?" Hermione frowned and thought hard. It's just that Nicholas Flamel was born hundreds of years ago after all, and books in the past hundred years have rarely mentioned it, so she couldn't think of it for a while. It's not like Ted has a memory palace to "retrieve".

Ron was very smart and looked at Ted: "Ted must know!"

The homework was copied out of experience.

Ted shrugged: "Nicholas Flamel, one of the greatest alchemists, created the only magic stone so far, also called the Philosopher's Stone. It is one of the materials for making elixirs of life. It can convert base metals into gold."

"He and Dumbledore also studied twelve new uses of dragon's blood, which are recorded on Dumbledore's chocolate frog card."

"Ah!" Hermione suddenly realized, and then patted his thigh hard, "Why didn't I think of it?"

Ted touched his thigh and said, "Please pat your own leg next time!"

Ron swallowed and asked with some difficulty: "Can you turn stone into gold? Oh my God! Did Dumbledore hide this thing under the three-headed dog?!"

His mind is now filled with the Midas touch, and his CPU is overloaded.

Everyone was still discussing the magic stone when they left, and they were very greedy.

Hagrid was already paralyzed, looking lifeless.

After all, Dumbledore's secret was revealed to the group of six by himself, and he failed to live up to Dumbledore's expectations.

Hagrid: Let's go. Let's go quickly. I'm tired…

I have to say that Dumbledore chose the right person when he chose Hagrid to keep the secret.

This is so tight-lipped!

Professor Quirrell + Voldemort, as well as Neville and Harley, don't we all know this one after another?

Ginger is still spicy when it's old~

Speaking of giving dragon eggs, this is really a good idea. I don't know who came up with it, Quirrell or Voldemort. Kill two birds with one stone!

First, by extracting the three-headed dog's weakness from Hagrid's mouth, you can break through the first, most difficult level.

Second, Hagrid was too busy hatching eggs and raising dragons as a gamekeeper to patrol the Forbidden Forest, which made it easier for Quirrell to attack the unicorns.

Ted strengthened his belief: I will not step into the Forbidden Forest this whole year!

If he met Voldemort, he would be dead!

As a result, the system sang the opposite:

"Ding~Trigger the task:

[Adventure in the Forbidden Forest (Red)]

The wealth of Hogwarts is half in the castle and half in the Forbidden Forest. There are so many unknown secrets and treasures there. Studying here for seven years is a must without exploring the Forbidden Forest.

There are tens of millions of magical animals, and the Forbidden Forest accounts for half of them~"
