Chapter 692 Giant Crisis
Chapter 692 Giant Crisis
Early the next morning, Fred and George didn't even bother to eat breakfast, and angrily fought back to the village of St. Catchpole.
But they didn't get to see Kyle as they wished.
"What, he went out?"
"Yes, just ten minutes ago." Chris said. "Mr. Scamander thought it was time for Kyle to go out and experience things for a long time, so he took him out during this vacation."
He opened the door and let the two of them in, "You probably haven't had breakfast yet."
"No need, we..."
Before Fred could ask, he smelled a very special aroma, which seemed to be grilled steak, but also had an indescribable fragrance, like morning dew or freshly picked fruit.
The two of them walked into the house unconsciously as if their noses were grabbed by something.
Chris smiled and waved his magic wand, and two steaming, fragrant steaks floated out of the kitchen and landed on the empty plates on the dining table.
"The hind legs of the giant horn are also the favorite food of the black dragons in the Heshidry Islands."
"I forgot." Newt patted his head, "Well, it's not too late to say it now. We came out this time mainly because of the giant."
Chris smiled and said: "This kind of creature does not exist in the UK. Mr. Scamander brought it here specially. Try it and see how it goes."
"Oh, it's such an amazing illusion spell."
"Of course I looked for it, but couldn't find it," Newt said. "That's normal. After all, it's illegal to resell door keys. They never stay in the same place for too long.
"It is a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Scamander. Your works have always been Beauxbatons' most important textbooks."
"I heard that you have done many great things this year, and you were even specially hired by the British Ministry of Magic?"
"But I heard that that person seemed to have done something and suddenly one day became a hero in their country."
Madam Maxime of Beauxbatons... The person's height of nearly ten feet is simply too recognizable.
"Then you're welcome." Fred and George sat on the table and couldn't help but cut a piece of steak into their mouths.
"It seems that you are the ones I'm waiting for." At this time, a deep voice suddenly came from behind the two of them.
Kyle twitched his lips and quickly changed the subject: "What are we here to do?"
"Then how did you know?" Kyle continued to ask: "He wrote to you?"
"Although I really want to accept your compliment, what I used was actually an illusion spell, and the real me is actually in another place."
Kyle tried to keep a straight face... Selling fake goods and becoming a national hero is rare even in the wizarding world... But if it is a portkey and it happens to Newt, it doesn't seem so puzzling. .
Newt first turned around, then raised his head to see the other person's full view.
"And you Kyle, glad we meet again."
Kyle knew that he was talking about his experience of sending magical animals around the world decades ago, so he couldn't help but asked curiously: "What happened to the person who sold you the fake goods? Didn't you go find him?"
A moment later, with a slight explosion, the real Ms. Maxim arrived. She stretched out her hand and said:
"In the south of Romania..." Newt pointed in the direction directly opposite them. "Going straight ahead from here is Bulgaria. I have walked this road several times and remember it clearly."
Newt didn't seem to want to discuss too much about his experiences in his youth. He looked around, as if he was looking for someone...
"It's my pleasure." Newt also extended his hand.
"What are we doing here..." Fred always felt that he should ask something, but as soon as the words came to his mouth, he swallowed them back together with the steak.
Forget it, never mind, let’s eat first...
After all, he had saved his country from a disaster... It was just a title of hero, not too much.
Kyle glanced at him and said slowly: "So this must not be an officially marked road, right?"
"Me too, Ms. Maxim," Kyle said with a smile.
……
Ms. Maxim smiled and said: "I'm afraid there is no one in the entire magic world who is better at the Disembodiment Spell than you. If I use this magic, I will definitely be discovered."
Almost in the blink of an eye, half the steak disappeared.
Newt smiled but said nothing.
"You are too modest..." Ms. Maxim shook her head, "Under normal circumstances, the French Ministry of Magic will not hire a sixth-grade student. I believe it is the same with you."
"At least the door key we used was obtained through formal channels."
It is indeed delicious, not to mention the Heshidri Black Dragon, they also like it.
"It's just a little fight, no big deal," Kyle said.
Newt casually put a brooch into his pocket and said with some sigh: "This is really good. I went through a lot of effort to get certain door keys. I even received fake ones. I spent a lot of Galleons, but the destination was somewhere else."
At the same time, Kyle had followed Newt to an inaccessible place, surrounded by mountains, and they were on the top of one of the mountains.
"It's strange. Dumbledore said that the person responsible for picking us up is nearby. He also said that we can recognize her at a glance... Where is she?"
"I really regret not knocking you out and taking you away." She said half-jokingly: "But now your identity is different, if you do this again, it will become an international dispute."
"No, I heard about it from other people who resold door keys, and he seemed to have returned the galleons to me... I dare say the owl that sent the galleons had been flying for at least a month when it found me. He has become so thin that he is just skin and bones, what a pitiful little guy.”
At this time, Kyle also noticed something like a mirror hidden under Ms. Maxim's feet, but because it was hidden in the pile of leaves, they didn't notice it just now.
"Oh, you don't know?" Ms. Maxim looked at Newt with interest, "Didn't you tell him?"
"Giant?" Kyle suddenly understood. No wonder the person responsible for meeting them was Ms. Maxim, but he didn't know why Hagrid didn't come.
"Tell me about the current situation," Newt said.
"It's a little tricky." Ms. Maxim's voice became much deeper. "I've been paying attention to their movements recently. Their Gogo Googoma has completely turned to the side of the Death Eaters. Recently, he is leading the migration of the tribe. , from a direction perspective, the destination is the UK.”
"Already started taking action?" Newt frowned, "Why so fast."
"Because of the Death Eaters." Ms. Maxim said, "A black-robed wizard went to Gao Gaoma's cave yesterday, and they began to move at night."
"They must be stopped." Newt said solemnly: "Otherwise, the Muggle villages along the way will suffer."
"One has already been destroyed." Ms. Maxim shook her head and sighed: "Hagrid and I just moved away the Muggles, and dozens of giants trampled the village."
After hearing this, Newt didn't waste any more time and immediately prepared to rush over.
But Ms. Maxim told him not to be too anxious.
"We have already seen it. There is no second village on their path in a short period of time, and Hagrid is also watching. If anything happens, he will contact me as soon as possible."
"No, you are wrong." Newt said seriously: "Giants are cruel in nature. They will take the initiative to find and approach places with life activities instead of following the shortest path."
Ms. Maxim did not doubt the authenticity of Newt's words. If there was anyone who knew giants better than her, then the person in front of her must be one, so she immediately quickened her pace.
"Come with me, they are not far away..."
On the way, Newt looked at Kyle, who was still very confused, and asked, "Are you wondering why you were asked to come?"
<divclass="contentadv">"Yes." Kyle nodded.
It stands to reason that if Newt wanted to find help, his father Chris would definitely be the first choice, as they had done before.
"That's because Chris is too conspicuous." Newt said. "If he suddenly disappears from the Ministry of Magic, the Death Eaters will probably guess that we are going to take action against the giants, and they may send more people over, including others. The same goes for members of the Order of the Phoenix.
"But you are different. Your target is relatively not that big. Even if you leave for a while, it will not attract the attention of the Death Eaters."
...Is it just that I am inconspicuous?
Kyle curled his lips. Although it was true, he still felt a little unhappy in his heart.
Who do you look down on...
But Kyle quickly thought of another thing and asked quickly: "But when you were at the station yesterday, many people should have seen you. Is that okay?"
"Of course not." Newt said with a smile, "In fact, the British "I" was already heading towards the Black Forest at this time."
"Black Forest?"
"It's where the werewolves were last seen," Newt said. "Although their problems are equally troublesome, the giants are more troublesome."
"And this time, helping you is not the most important thing. In fact, having Ms. Maxim and Hagrid here is enough."
"What's that for?" Kyle asked in confusion.
"The main thing is to let you adapt to the war in advance." Newt said, "We actually discussed it together and agreed that it is necessary to adapt to the war in advance before the real war comes, and Chris also agreed."
"My mother also agreed?" Kyle asked subconsciously.
For some unknown reason, Newt did not answer the question, but changed the subject abruptly: "In fact, what you are doing now is what Chris and Diana did back then...
"Fighting giants, trolls, werewolves... they kept most of the dark creatures out of the battlefield. Otherwise, the outcome of the last war would have been much more tragic than now."
"That's right." Ms. Maxim at the front said seriously: "In war, dark creatures can play a much greater role than usual... Oh, here we are."
While talking, another huge figure suddenly jumped out from the side, holding a huge stone bow with full strings in his hand.
"It's us, Hagrid, don't be nervous..."
After seeing the person clearly, Hagrid let go of the bowstring in his hand.
"Sorry, Olim." Hagrid said, and then he asked: "Has the person Professor Dumbledore mentioned arrived?"
"Already arrived." Ms. Maxim turned sideways, revealing the two people behind her.
"Mr. Scamander, I knew it was you and Kyle...
"Huh? Wait..."
Hagrid was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized something, "Kyle, why are you here? Did you follow me here secretly? Go back!"
"No, Hagrid," Newt said, "I brought Kyle, and Dumbledore agreed."
"What?" Hagrid said with some disbelief, "But he is still a student... Are all the members of the Order of the Phoenix dead? He actually let a student who has not graduated yet come to such a dangerous place. Giants are not trolls. They are better than Most Death Eaters are far more dangerous."
"Of course I know this." Newt said, "But our purpose this time is not to kill all the giants, and with us here, Kyle will not encounter any danger."
When saying this, Newt acted calmly and confidently.
Hagrid hesitated for a while, but finally said nothing. He just looked at Kyle and reminded: "Okay, but you must follow me closely later and don't run around."
Kyle naturally agreed.
"Hagrid, where are they?" Maxim asked.
"It's right over there." Hagrid pointed to a valley not far away, "Because there are Death Eaters following me, I didn't dare to get too close, but it's the same here."
The three of them looked in the direction of his finger.
Just like Hagrid said, you don't need to get close to observe the giants' movements... because they are so conspicuous.
Dozens of giants move together, and they can be seen clearly even from several miles away.
In the distant valley, a group of giants were advancing at an incredible speed. They seemed to be moving slowly, but each step they took was huge, so the real situation was much faster.
"What should we do?" Hagrid asked: "Last time when we came here with Olim, we had already broken down. Giant Gugo doesn't trust us. If we see him again, he will definitely fight. This is our point. Humans are no match for so many giants.”
"We don't need to deal with all the giants." Newt stood on the top of the mountain and observed for a while, and said with a serious expression: "Some of those giants seem to be unwilling."
"That's right." Hagrid nodded, "About half of the giants are dissatisfied with Gao Gaoma's rule and don't want to go against the wizards, but they are small and thin and cannot resist at all."
"This is much easier." Newt thought for a moment, "As long as we can find a way to get rid of the giant Gugo, then they will have to return to the group and choose a new Gugo.
"As long as Shingogo refuses to cooperate with the Death Eaters, this giant crisis will be solved."
"This is not easy. He is at least twenty feet tall." Maxim said worriedly: "And the giants all move together, and we can't separate them. If we want to kill him, we must deal with all of them." Giants."
"Got to give it a try," Newt said, then looked at Kyle, "Do you have a suitcase with you?"
"Of course." Kyle said.
Since he was traveling far away, how could he not bring his own suitcase.
"Okay." Newt also took out a box and said meaningfully: "Giants and fire dragons are naturally hostile, and the flames spewed by fire dragons are also the thing they hate the most. If they want to cause chaos in the giant tribe, this is the most dangerous thing. Good idea."
"I understand." Kyle nodded and also took out a box.
Then, in Ms. Maxim's disbelieving eyes, two huge adult fire dragons appeared in front of her out of thin air.
"Oh, Merlin..." She looked at the two behemoths in front of her with dumbfounded eyes and subconsciously took two steps back.
But Hagrid was just the opposite. His eyes were full of intoxication, and he even wanted to step forward and touch those scales that sparkled in the sun.
"The Hungarian Horntail, and the Norwegian Thornback... No, Noble?"
Hagrid was suddenly stunned. He always felt that the Norwegian Spinosaurus in front of him looked too familiar.
What responded to him was a breath full of joy.
Apparently, Norbert also recognized Hagrid and said hello out of habit.
But it seems to have forgotten that its body shape is no longer the same as before.
When it greeted Hagrid before, it could only spit out a small flame, but now...
Two scorching pillars of fire fell from the sky. Fortunately, Maxim had quick eyesight and stretched out his leg in time, kicking Hagrid to the side.
"You're crazy, Hagrid." She frowned and shouted, "This is a fire dragon!"
"Oh, it's okay, Olim." Hagrid dusted off the dust and got up from the ground. "This is the fire dragon I hatched. I think it had no ill intentions. It was just that it was too excited to see me again and didn't pay attention for a moment."
"Oh...it still remembers me, little Norbert." Hagrid said happily.
