Hogwarts on the Tip of the Tongue

who am I? where am I? "

"Have I seen this tree just now?"

"Say good forest path, how can you walk and walk away ?!"

Elena stared blankly at the dense surroundings that looked like before. Except that the ground seemed to be slightly sloping down, the trees were as lush as before, and there was no tendency to leave the Hogwarts Forbidden Forest at all.

That's right, she got lost again.

In the face of this familiar feeling, Elena's heart is without waves, even a little ...

(╯ ‵ □ ′) ╯︵┻━┻

Now, under such a situation of starvation, who can smile? Soul!

At the beginning, she did chase in the direction of the disappearance of the two unicorns.

However, after only a little or two minutes of chasing, Elena instantly realized a problem, and her little short legs wanted to hunt down the group of lively [Scottish one-horned Aries] in the jungle. It was still unrealistic. .

Fortunately, just as she was preparing to return home, she saw a vague forest path.

Recalling the tip from the guard of Ruber Hagrid at Hogwarts Hunting Ground:

"When you walk in the Hogwarts Forbidden Forest, as long as you don't deviate from the path, it is usually difficult to get lost and you will not encounter any danger."

Therefore, Elena decisively gave up the unicorn plan and chose [Plan B]-to follow the instructions of the elders and automatically find the way.

But all the paths taken by people always have a starting point and an ending point.

It's a big deal to go a little bit in both directions. You can always successfully return to the entrance of the Forbidden Forest at Hogwarts. If you are lucky, you will succeed once. If you are unlucky, you will have to try one more time.

However, the premise of doing this is ...

This road must be the road that humans walk out ...

Elena twitched at the corner of her mouth as she looked at the **** and the scattered footprints of the unknown magical animal in front of her.

It was only then that she suddenly realized an important issue-judging only by the frequency of human wizards in the Hogwarts Forbidden Forest, most of the blurred forest paths in the forbidden forest are usually not human activities. The footprint left.

"Don't panic, the problem is not big, just go back the same way."

Elena exhaled calmly, narrowing her eyes slightly, trying to distinguish her footprints on the ground illuminated by the wand, but with her current size and weight, she could not stay in this dense primitive jungle at all. What obvious traces.

After she stopped and made a few laps, she couldn't even tell where she was coming from.

"So hungry → so hungry ↗ so hungry ↘ I am really hungry ↓ ……"

Elena hummed softly, gradually calming down and thinking carefully.

There are a variety of magical animal groups living in the Hogwarts Forbidden Forest, most of which have certain wisdom. As long as they encounter any of these creatures, most of them can find ways to communicate well and let them help lead the way.

In the legendary Yeqi, she may not be able to see it, but in addition to this there are unicorns, giant monsters, eagles, horses and winged beasts that can communicate, and the most ideal of them, of course, still have a complete social system. Horse tribe.

At this moment, Elena suddenly heard a strange sound of a rustling sound on the left side roughly ten feet above the ground, as if some creature touched the sound of the forest branches and leaves, and accompanied it With a clicking sound.

In fact, these sounds are not obvious, most of them are mixed in the wind of the Forbidden Forest.

However, I don't know why, but it sounds particularly abrupt in Elena's ears, like the ripples suddenly blooming on the calm water. She even outlined the other person's body size in the first time.

"Hi, Good Evening."

Before waiting for the opponent to pounce from the sky, Elena turned around and raised her wand and smiled.

"Dear ... Mr. Spider."

This is a giant spider the size of a horse pulling a cart. It has eight long, bizarre, thick hairy legs. The two legs in front are a pair of shiny black claws. A faint click.

There is no doubt that this is a special product of the Hogwarts Forbidden Forest, the eight-eye giant spider tribe.

Facing the wand in close proximity, the spider that had lurked silently to the upper left of Elena, the spider that was about to pounce suddenly froze.

As a magical creature living around Hogwarts Castle, it is well aware of the power of these human wizards-even if this is a human cub, when her wand is aimed at it, it is quite scary and threatening .

The most important thing is that it can vaguely feel the maliciousness hidden in the little thing in front of it.

"Hello, may I know how to get to Hogwarts Castle ..."

Elena ’s eyes were firmly locked on the big furry spider in front of her, without any trace of fear, but all experienced hunters know that turning around to escape when facing unknown creatures in the jungle is always the worst. Options.

When you have a firearm in your hand, calmly locking the opponent is the most correct option.

For the wizard, the magic wand also has the same effect-the powerful impact and lethality will immediately repel all beasts who do not know what to do, and humans walking upright belong to the monsters in the eyes of most animals.

In fact, if the opponent is a creature that has not eaten humans, the result of this confrontation is usually ...

"Hey! No running! All petrochemicals!"

Elena shouted a little anxiously, striding quickly to follow the large spider that ran away, the magic wand in her hand from time to time issued a curse, wanting to leave the eight-eyed giant spider to ask road.

She has lost her unicorn once. If she misses the big spider she encountered before, she does n’t know when she will be lucky enough to meet a living magical animal again. After all, the Hogwarts Forbidden Forest is too much. Big.

Compared with the previous failed chase, this chase process is obviously much easier.

Although the big spider took advantage of its eight long legs, she still effortlessly flicked Elena away, but the gradual surrounding environment became the most striking signpost, guiding Elena to move forward.

As the girl progressed, the ground was gradually sloping downward, and the surrounding trees became more and more sparse. Many trunks showed an unhealthy gray color, as if eroded by some pests, and the branches and leaves were covered with white spiders. network.

After about five or six minutes of chasing, Elena came to the edge of a wide and concave ground.

The trees that were originally in the depression were all cleared. On the ground covered with thick fallen leaves, from time to time crawled a few spiders, stepped on there is a feeling of walking on the thick carpet in the common room, the center of the depression under the stars, It is a terrible sight enough to scare most people.

spider.

Not like the common little spiders that hurriedly crawl away, but each one seemed to be the size of a domestic pig, eight eyes, eight legs, dark, hairy, wielding a black bright claw to make a click The eight-eyed giant spider with a clicking sound.

What a huge ethnic group ...

Elena narrowed her eyes and swept a circle of giant spiders densely packed in the ground, shaking her head in sigh.

Biological invasion, even in the magic world, is indeed a problem that cannot be ignored.

According to the records in "Where Are the Magical Animals", the eight-eyed giant spider is a huge, ferocious spider; the adult spider's legs extend to both sides, and the span can reach 15 feet, a high-risk carnivorous magical creature with certain wisdom .

The most important thing is that the female eight-eye giant spider can lay one hundred eggs at a time, and the hatching time only takes less than three months-the eight-eye giant spider group in the Hogwarts Forbidden Forest lives For nearly fifty years, if it is replaced by a common primitive jungle, it may be that there are only giant spiders in the forest that have been flooded.

The giant spider that escaped from Elena was now a little below the steep slope, next to a foggy hemispherical giant cobweb in the middle of the concave ground. Its companions surrounded it and sent out to each other. A clicking sound seemed to be whispering something.

Along with the giant spider's "complaining" (Elena guessed), one after another eight-eye giant spider turned around, eight fierce black compound eyes looked up and down at the edge of the concave human witch, exuding A more disturbing atmosphere, and the only reason to stop them from rushing is ...

"People! Aragok! People!"

Elena vaguely heard such a sound from the noisy claws not far away.

Obviously, as a magical animal community with a strict hierarchy, it really needs elders to decide in the face of this unexpected situation, and this is exactly in line with Elena's request-she just came to find a guide.

Soon, from the misty and hemispherical cobweb, a giant elephant-sized giant eight-eyed giant spider was drilled. Its body and legs were gray with black, and each of the ugly heads with big claws The eyes are covered with a white cloud.

Undoubtedly, this is the pet [Aragok] that Hagrid keeps. It is a blind man.

"What's going on?" Aragok said, and the two claws moved quickly.

Compared to the ordinary eight-eyed giant spiders, its voice is much clearer and thicker than those of the little spiders.

"People! Aragok! People!"

The spiders gathered around Aragok waved their claws excitedly, making a clicking sound, and at the same time pointed to the silver-haired little witch standing on the edge of the hollow.

"Is it Hagrid?" Aragok shook the claws in confusion, and the eight milky eyes stared blankly.

"No, it's a stranger."

"Then kill him!" Click, the giant eight-eyed giant spider said impatiently.

"Don't bother me with this kind of thing, I'm sleeping ..."

However, before Aragok had finished speaking, the edge of the concave suddenly remembered a crisp sound of a spell.

"Ex ...!"

boom!

Along with the deafening roar, several trees around Elena were lifted up, and the debris flew around. The shock wave formed by the explosion swept through the entire concave floor, causing all eight-eye giant spiders to stop their activities subconsciously The sound of big claws.

"I am Hagrid's friend, don't be afraid, I come with kindness and peace."

Elena looked at the mute effect brought by the curse, and nodded her head with satisfaction-bullying and fear, this is the characteristic of most creatures. Before you reason, show the power properly. This is the best communication. the way.

Click, click click, click click ...

After a brief surprise, a series of spider claws sounded again in the concave. Obviously, this attack alone would not allow those who are not particularly intelligent to understand Elena.

In this case ...

Elena glanced at the hesitating, Aragok who hadn't continued talking for a while, her lips raised.

"; Maxium!"

"; Maxium!"

"; Maxium!"

boom! boom! boom!

Art is always the best way to quell disputes. If it is not enough once, then increase the equivalent more times.

In less than a few seconds, with Elena as the center, almost all of the surrounding trees fell down, and the muddy land was opened by the power of the curse, and the whole concave was filled with a layer of earthy taste.

And just as Elena expected, the spiders around were finally quiet.

Elena would n’t naively think that the eight-eyed giant spider is a kind of magical creature that is harmless and harmless. You can send them out of the forbidden forest only by simple language communication-about this, the original book almost fed Spider's Ron and Harry did a fairly classic wrong demonstration.

"Enough! Human cub! What the **** are you doing!"

Aragok waved his claws angrily, making a low growl.

"As you can see, I'm lost."

Elena spread her hands and said with a smile.

"So I hope that a kind and reliable creature can take me out of the Forbidden Forest and return to Hogwarts Castle for a Halloween dinner-that's all, you know, I'm starving to death now.

"Lost? It's not like Hagrid sent you here ..."

Aragok danced the claws, clicking slowly.

"So actually, can I understand that you are an uninvited guest who voluntarily breaks into our territory ... right? You should know that this piece of land belongs to the eight-eye giant spider group."

Ok? !

Elena narrowed her eyes slightly. Why didn't this old spider react? !

According to common sense, witnessing the destructive power she displayed, Aragok, who has close to human intelligence, should not make unwise choices for a little flesh, unless ...

"Don't you think ... Just making a loud noise can force the Eight-Eyed Giant Spiders to succumb and give up the fresh human flesh that came to the door, or even serve your wizards like slaves?"

Just ... loud noise? !

Elena glanced around the ground almost like a bombing, and her cheeks twitched.

This old guy is not a blind man? !

Can't this degree of curse let it see the reality clearly? !

Thinking this way, Elena's eyes slowly fell on the pale eyes of the old spider ...

Emmmmm ...

Damn it!

Almost forgot, this old spider is blind now!

"Sorry, poor human cub, you can't go anywhere ..."

Not far away, Aragok said slowly, the big claws made a dangerous click.

"The wizard is indeed terrible, but this is not Hogwarts Castle. You can deal with one or two by yourself, but you can't resist my hundreds of children. Stay here and be our holiday gift ... … "

With Aragok's voice, the surrounding clicks gradually sounded again.

The murky voice became denser, and countless spiders seemed to be coming from all corners.

Elena sighed, suddenly realizing the failure of this communication.

Under Aragok's encouragement, the eight-eyed giant spiders gathered from all directions, moving slowly towards her, inch by inch, and at a few steps behind her, the spider formed a Towering copper walls and iron walls.

Countless black and bright claws opened and closed, clicking and clicking, hundreds of fierce eyes gleamed on those ugly black heads, and the excitement and bloodthirsty flashed in the eyes of every spider look.

Looking at the spider's barbed, hard black fluff, Elena became more and more hungry and felt irritable and sick.

"!"

Elena looked cold and waved her wand without hesitation.

boom!

The powerful blast spell exploded into the “Spider City Wall” in front of Elena without any effort, and the green, thick blood of the spider spattered everywhere, flying everywhere.

Thump, thump.

Several broken spider corpses fell heavily on the ground.

Compared with most high-risk magical creatures, the danger of the eight-eyed giant spider is more reflected in its venom, its powerful reproductive ability and wisdom, but it is not in pure physical and magic resistance. Any advantage.

After all, after all, they are just a large arthropod after all.

In order to obtain extraordinary perception, they even sacrificed the external carapace, just covering the body with a thick layer of black fluff, which is even weaker in defense than many ordinary animals with thick skin and rough skin. some.

However, in the face of the good effects brought by the curse, Elena's face became more dignified.

Strictly speaking, this is the first time she has faced a dangerous magical animal alone.

After witnessing the eight-eyed giant spider with his own eyes, Elena finally realized why Newt Scamander would define them as five-star dangerous magical animals in Where Is the Magical Animal.

Although the body was torn by the spell, those eight-eyed giant spiders were already dead.

But their palpitation claws are still frantically biting the empty air with all their strength, as if they have rushed to Elena ... This is a terrible gregarious carnivorous creature.

Compared with most magical creatures, spiders are not very capable of melee combat.

But the toxicity of their fangs is still a danger that cannot be ignored.

The eight-eyed giant spider ’s rapidly-emerging poison can bring most wizards to another world before they can get any effective medical treatment-a little more caution, after all, there is no big problem.

Without any hesitation, Elena took the initiative to inspire the death pendant that Grindelwald gave her.

The iron armor curse from the first generation of the Dark Lord emerged and enveloped Elena ’s body. With the physical attacks of those big spiders, it was still quite difficult to break through this layer of magic protection.

But there is no doubt that the old blind spider is right.

The wizard ’s curse spell alone, when faced with a large population of eight-eyed giant spiders, is obviously not as effective as when dealing with other magical animals—they are too many.

Even if a gap was just blown out, less than five or six seconds later, the black colony of spiders in the back filled up again. The endless cluster of spiders did not care about one or two dead unfortunate spiders.

"When you go back, you must learn a few large-scale attack spells."

After bombing dozens of spiders in succession with an explosion spell, Elena sighed and dropped her wand.

Under such circumstances, the spells taught by Hogwarts in the lower grades almost did not work very well.

This is no longer a situation that a young wizard can cope with.

Fortunately, in addition to being a wizard, she has another profession ...

Elena raised her lips, and silently took out the metal cross necklace given to her by the house elf by Father Benitez, with a gleaming expression in her eyes.

As a trainee nun, when magic cannot eradicate evil, she has another option.

Survive the undead with a cross!

"Quickly become bigger."

Elena's wand tapped the metal cross necklace in her hand and read it softly.

As the spell was spoken, Elena felt that the magic in her body quickly rushed to the metal necklace in her hand.

At the next moment, I saw a giant metal cross that was half a head taller than hers in the glade.

The original slim necklace has now become a metal chain of the same thickness as the girl's forearm, wrapped around Elena's arm, and under the starlight of the Forbidden Forest, a layer of cold metallic luster shimmers.

"Rua! Rua! Rua! Rua! Ruaaaaaa ..."

Elena moved her wrists and looked around at the densely packed eight-eyed giant spiders. An extremely dangerous joy appeared in the corners of her mouth. She pulled up the metal chain in her hand and made a series of pleasant sounds of metal friction.

"No matter how much the weak come, it's just a miscellaneous fish ... Now, it's time for the protagonist to appear."

Click, click!

An eight-eyed giant spider moved its long legs, wielding huge claws, and at the same time protruded forward, pointed the deadly mouthpiece at the silver-haired witch who stood and stopped the spell to fight back.

"Ugh--!"

Elena sighed and waved her arm easily.

The giant metal cross rose into the air, and with a roar, it broke the giant claw of the spider in front of it and attacked it, and smashed the eight-eye giant spider into a pile of meat.

[Three-hundred and sixty-degree attack without dead ends]-Someone once described the movement of spiders in such words.

However, at this time, this sentence may be used to describe Elena may be more appropriate.

"Boom !!!"

The giant metal cross with an unstoppable momentum, with the body of several eight-eyed giant spiders, hit the ground heavily, hitting deep pits, and at the same time breaking more spiders around. Root arthropod.

Between the gravel and the dirt flying, Elena yanked the chain in her hand, her eyes fixed, and the cross rose again and swept through a half arc, smashing the heads of the dozen or so eight-eyed spiders on the left. flat.

Boom!

Numerous shells shattered again, and then the viscous spider body fluid overflowed.

The entire eight-eye spider depression has now almost become a spider cemetery. Countless spiders with half-dead limbs curled up in various corners. The spider barrier surrounding the Elena had collapsed and turned into a land. wreckage.

The blunt instrument is always the top life harvesting tool in the original melee combat field.

Click Click Click ...

Click, click ...

In the face of absolute power, even the beast will feel fear, not to mention the eight-eye giant spider that already has some wisdom. In the face of this unilateral, ingenious slaughter, the eight-eye giant spider group Start to retreat and flee.

"Now want to run? Then try if you are lucky ... ha—"

Elena glanced at Aragok, who had withdrawn to the depths of the cobwebs, put the chain in her hand to the longest, took a deep breath, and with all her strength she drove the giant metal cross through the concave ground.

The tight iron chain cuts off the body of most of the eight-eyed giant spiders that are running away like a sharp blade, and the eight-eyed giant spiders directly hit by the last cross are directly transformed into a black pool. Mud, twitched and collapsed.

"Call, call ..."

Elena panted and looked around the sudden silence, her face loosened.

After so long a fight, even she was quite tired.

The armored mantra that Grindelwald gave her had long since lapsed, so in the following battles, her clothing was inevitably scraped by some spiders' claws or arthropods, revealing a large piece of snow-white skin.

Fortunately, since she learned to cure the magic text [UR], this simple trauma has nothing to do with her except for a pain-as long as it is not killed on the spot, she can rely on magic Heal yourself.

This is why she has the confidence to walk around the Forbidden Forest alone.

Compared to Elena, where the blue bar is not empty, and the blood bar has no limit, almost all the creatures in the Hogwarts Forbidden Forest will be almost not far from death as long as they are attacked by her seriously. Too.

This time ...

It's finally over ...

So, the last goal left ...

Elena dragged the giant cross covered with spider body fluid, and walked slowly towards a misty semi-spherical cobweb in the center of the concave ground. The sound of the metal chain across the ground was like a sickle of death. Icy.

Aragog was just blind, but his hearing and smell were not lost. The killing feast for more than ten minutes was enough to make him understand what a terrible demon he was facing.

In its impression, even if it was the existence of the "dark king" that people called "Dark Lord" more than a year ago, the little witch in front of him was more terrible-compared to the strange magic that died, this unilateral The slaughter made it chill.

"Respect, respectable human wizard, wait a minute! I am Hagrid's friend."

Click, click, the old spider said anxiously, Elena felt that she seemed to hear a little helpless and trembling from the click of the click.

Hearing such a happy reversal of the lines, she couldn't help but feel a little emotional-is it not good to be earlier?

Elena shook her head and said softly.

"But this does not hide the fact that you eat people, right?"

"No! Absolutely not! You are the first! Hagrid is my good friend! Benefactor! Although I have the instinct to attack people, out of respect for Hagrid, so many years have passed and we have not hurt any one people."

"Oh? Really ..."

For this big spider who doesn't talk much, Elena doesn't know what to do.

In the past few decades, Hogwarts has never happened that students died in the forest.

If the spiders really eat people, Albus Dumbledore and many school professors have long eradicated them.

Therefore, strictly speaking, it has always adhered to its oath without actively hurting humanity-but this is like the oath imprinted on the back of her hand, which has too many loopholes.

Although in the original story, the group of eight-eyed giant spiders finally joined Voldemort's camp and attacked Hogwarts together, it also happened after Aragok's death.

Of course, the most important thing is, if the old spider really hurts the killer, Hagrid will instantly become a red name, right?

After all, it is one thing to fight back in self-defense, and another thing to kill spiders in the house.

"You said, it seems so reasonable ..."

Elena stopped and looked around at the spider corpses around her, nodding her head thoughtfully, the price seemed pretty deep.

Hearing Elena's footsteps stopped, the old spider hiding behind the cobweb mist was a little calmer, and the clicking sound of the claws was not as fast as before.

"As you can see, I am already a spider that is too old to move."

After Aragok hesitated for a few seconds, he replied cautiously, "The children who bound me do not actively attack Hagrid, it is all I can do. In the face of the younger and powerful offspring, I It's hard to be more ... "

"Relax, I am a reasonable person."

Elena smiled slightly, and withdrew her wand to restore the giant metal cross on her hand to its original size, and by the way cleared the spider slime above.

"As you can see, I'm just defending myself ... Although the method may be a little too aggressive, it's also because I'm hungry and want to go back quickly, so I'm a little bit heavier."

"No problem! I will send you back to Hogwarts!" Aragok said intensely, and the click sound almost became a piece. "If you are worried, I can send you personally."

"Not in a hurry."

Elena touched her deflated belly and looked around the spider cemetery ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ and the broken leg, shook her head meaningfully.

"I now need some dry firewood. Can you help your children collect some of them ..."

"Dry firewood?" Aragok replied in confusion. "No problem, are you a little cold ..."

"Cold is only one aspect."

The mixed-race little charming baby shook her head and gently licked her lips, revealing a demonic smile.

"More importantly, after strenuous activities, I was a little hungry ..."
