Chapter 326 Giant Tribe and Gifts

Not long after sunrise, Hagrid and Madame Maxime had to be forced to wake up. update the fastest

The reason is very simple, and it is also very dumbfounding, because the sound of the giants snoring, after all, caused a small-scale avalanche on the top of the mountain.

Fortunately, at least Maca found some signs in advance, allowing them to avoid the impact of the falling snow.

I counted at dawn before, and there are a total of 82 giants that can be seen below... The one lying by the lake at the bottom of the valley should be 'Gu Ge' among them. After the rushing snow flow gradually subsided , Maca said to the other two.

In the giant community, the leader is generally called Gu Ge, and since ancient times the warlike giants have chosen Gu Ge's method, which is naturally fighting.

A giant is a creature with fighting spirit flowing in its veins, even if it is a battle between the same race, it will be merciless.

Although this kind of internal fighting is always regarded as barbaric and rough by wizards, anyway, the giant's strong fighting power and vitality must have a lot to do with their habits.

It's just that in ancient times, when the giants were still active and free, Gu Ge changed extremely frequently. At that time, Gu Ge always represented the highest level of combat power among the giant groups.

But now, the largest group of giants in the world is only left in the valley. Even if they are still aggressive, they will inevitably lose many potential targets.

Just now Maca has seen that Gu Ge by the lake at the bottom of the valley, but no matter how you look at it, he is a lazy guy.

Perhaps when he first ascended to the position of Gu Ge, his combat power was stronger than other giants. This can be seen from his obviously taller figure, but now it is not necessarily the case.

Eighty-two... that's just such a tiny bit left! There used to be a lot... Hagrid looked at the valley below, and couldn't help but sigh, At the beginning, it was said that the whole world added up to one There are more than a hundred tribes, but look now...

Both Hagrid and Madam Maxim were people who had a deep relationship with giants. Even Madam Maxim, who refused to admit it verbally, was showing a complex look at the moment.

To put it bluntly, this is the result of the surge in the number of wizards and Muggles.

Although wizards have seldom waged large-scale wars against giants, as wizards' areas of activity continue to expand, and wizards are always ensuring the isolation of Muggles from the wizarding world, there are fewer and fewer places for magical creatures to live .

However, a creature of the size of a giant has always had a great demand for living space. They not only need a site for daily survival, but also a relatively free individual space.

Giants not only hunt other creatures for survival, but also often cause fights because of their natural fighting spirit. When they live crowded together as they are now, the phenomenon of infighting will happen very frequently.

Before we set off, Dumbledore and I chatted for a while... Hagrid stared at the sleeping giants below, and said softly, Dumbledore said it was our fault, the wizard drove them together abruptly. Son, they have no choice but to live like this...

If you want me to say, it's not clear who is right and who is wrong, Maca shook his head and said, Many magical creatures have become extinct in history. Since they will become extinct, it means that they have not been able to act like wizards. become even stronger”

In ancient times, we wizards seem to have experienced struggles, and our current life is the result of our ancestors' hard work.

He thought for a while, then turned his attention to Hagrid and Madame Maxime.

Just like the two of you, the blood of wizards and giants flows in your body...

I'm just

Mrs. Maxim seems to want to use her old big-boned theory to deny,

But Maca waved her hand at her.

Actually, I occasionally wonder how we wizards were born? How did we evolve into what we are now... Maca said in a deep voice, Perhaps our bloodlines are simply mixed. Isn't it?

Just as wizards occasionally awaken Transfiguration Mags like Tonks, the blood of wizards has always been mysterious. In other words, it has always been suspicious.

Let's not talk about this, Maca took the initiative to put aside the topic during the moment when the three of them were somewhat in reverie, Hagrid, I remember that before you set off, Dumbledore should have asked you to bring some presents for him. Their Gugo? What did they bring?

Speaking of this topic, Hagrid visibly perked up.

As mentioned before, giants hate wizards, and even more so, their magic. But in fact, what they hate is that wizards use magic to harass or deal with them.

But their favorite gift is also magic.

This is Gubley's Fairy Fire, made by Dumbledore himself.

Hagrid pulled out a rather thick torch from the package placed aside, and when he took off the metal cover on the top of the torch, a rather beautiful blue-white flame burst forth immediately.

The brightness of this kind of flame is not high, and it has no temperature, so it has no practical value. But since ancient times, it has another name, Eternal Flame.

This is a magical flame made with an ancient magic deciphered by scholars. That magic inherits the consistent impression of complex and difficult ancient magic, and requires a fairly advanced level of magic to complete.

The reason why this kind of magic is not included in the Hogwarts curriculum is roughly based on the above two points.

And the reason why it is called Eternal Flame is precisely because this kind of flame can burn forever, even if the caster dies, it will not affect its magical effect.

But Maca knows that, in essence, this thing is not a magic flame that burns magic power, not even a flame.

Because the burning of the Gublai fairy fire does not require any fuel, but a magic that is only related to light.

Anything else?

This first gift immediately dispelled most of Maca's interest, but to be honest, the giant really liked this flashy magic item because it looked very beautiful.

And this, Hagrid said, and took out another large package, The helmet made of goblins is said to be indestructible!

Like the Gublai Immortal Fire, this helmet is also the kind of superb visual effect thing.

But at least this is much better than that useless flame. Anyone with the words produced by a goblin is generally not a high-end product.

Of course, if this thing fell into the hands of giants, it was actually just an ornament, anyway, they couldn't possibly wear it!

After that, Hagrid took out several gifts one after another, but those things were obviously more common than the first two, so there was nothing to say.

They waited on the ridge until near noon, when they found a good moment.

To put it bluntly, that Gu Ge finally woke up!

Negotiations with giants need to be done step by step, and those big guys are inherently impatient, so the three of them agreed to send a Gublai fairy fire first. After agreeing to give the next gift the next day, they must leave the giant tribe immediately.

Afterwards, Hagrid, who seemed to be the tallest, took the lead, holding the Gublai Immortal Flame high above his head, and walked down to the valley below.

When a few giants first noticed these malnourished little guys, with a roar, the atmosphere of the giant tribe became depressed.

Hold the gift high and stare at Gu Ge's position, other giants don't need to look.

This is the custom of foreigners expressing their wish to meet Gu Ge when they step into the giant's territory, just like Maca and the other three are doing.

When they really stood on the same plane, they finally felt the most intuitive sense of oppression stemming from their body shape.

Maca is of course the shortest here, not even six feet tall.

When he walked among the twenty-foot-up giants, even though he didn't need to be afraid at all with his strength, he couldn't help feeling a little dignified.

Because they didn't come to fight this time, creatures like giants, it's easy to fight with them, but if you want to get along with them, you have to spend a little more effort.

Fortunately, the giants still understand the rules handed down since ancient times.

When the three of them went all the way to the lake at the bottom of the valley, even though the giants on both sides were frequently restless, the traditional customs deeply imprinted in their bones still made these violent maniacs forcefully suppress the flames of war in their hearts.

Roar

A giant who got closer let out an angry howl at them, which made Madam Maxim tremble all over.

In the end, they finally approached the lake with steady steps, and they were not far away from that Gu Ge. At the same time, the restless giants gradually calmed down.

As they got closer, Maca realized that thick ice had actually formed on the surface of this lake, but it was smashed by those giants with great force.

Gu Ge of the giant tribe was lying on the edge of the lake at this time. When Maca and the others arrived here, he was roaring, asking his tribe to feed him food.

Unlike other giants who only use rough animal skins to cover their naked parts, this Gu Ge is obviously wearing a set of old leather armor passed down from his ancestors.

Since ancient times, giants have lived in poverty, but in ancient times, when wizard wars were frequent, giants also participated as mercenary forces.

Maca knew that this set of equipment should have survived from those chaotic periods.
