Chapter 210: What to do with your eggs
Chapter 210 What to do with your eggs
After entering March, the weather gradually became warmer, and the ice on the Black Lake that lasted all winter thawed last week.
In recent times, the giant squid has often poked its head and tentacles out from the bottom of the lake, enjoying warm sunbathing on the surface of the water.
This also attracted many students to watch.
Although many people who have read "Hogwarts: A School History" know that there is a giant squid in the Black Lake, but because it rarely appears, there are few other houses except Slytherin whose common room is at the bottom of the lake. There is a chance to see it with your own eyes.
Everyone was very curious for a while, especially the freshmen who had just entered the school. They ran there as soon as get out of class was over.
The Black Lake has inexplicably become the new holy place to check in at Hogwarts.
But Kyle didn't join in the fun. He had already seen it once at the end of last year. To put it bluntly, it was no different from an ordinary squid, except that it was slightly larger.
Moreover, you’ll get hungry easily after watching for a long time, and you can’t get an iron plate, so there’s no point in going there.
With this time, he might as well read two more books.
After several months of study, he has now almost mastered the Traceless Stretching Charm.
Although I am not very proficient yet, and the room for change each time is not as large as imagined, I have finally taken the most difficult first step. I just need to practice more in the future.
Kyle plans to completely remodel his trunk before fifth grade...not to say it's the same as Newt's, but at least it has to be able to hold half of the Forbidden Forest.
He has acquired a lot of things in the past two years. The plants in the flower bed alone can fill the current box. In addition, he also has to divide the territories of the trolls and the moon-crazy beasts... and who knows when they will join in the future. If the new member is too young, it will not be enough.
Just do it...
After that, Kyle ran into the box almost whenever he had time.
With his overtime efforts, he finally completed the first expansion of the box on the third day of the Easter holiday.
The space inside is nearly twice as big as it was at the beginning.
Kyle looked at his results and nodded with satisfaction. He now felt as if he had exchanged a single room for a villa.
And the previous problems were solved at once.
For example, the activity range of trolls is much larger.
There are also new homes of Yueyue Beasts who can start preparing ... It takes a lot of space to build a cave that suits them to live. I ca n’t find a place before, and now it is just right.
The only problem is that after the expansion, the surrounding area becomes a lot more empty and seems a bit monotonous...but this can be easily solved.
The next day, Kyle went to the Forbidden Forest early in the morning.
He planned to take advantage of these few days of vacation to find an opportunity to move two pine trees into the box.
Of course, it would not work during the day, as Hagrid would easily catch him, so he went to check out the location this time... Determine the target first, and then take action at night.
A few minutes later, Kyle arrived in front of Hagrid's hut, but strangely, the door was closed, and all the curtains were drawn tightly. Even the small window at the top was covered with a piece of paper. Daily Prophet.
Kyle stepped forward and knocked on the door.
“Who is it?”
Hagrid’s voice came from inside, sounding a little nervous.
Then the door was opened a small crack.
"Huh...it's Kyle, why do you have time to come over?"
"I need your help with something." Kyle said, "Can I come in?"
"Of course..." Hagrid stepped aside to let Kyle into the room, then quickly turned around and closed the door.
The cabin was like a sauna, suffocatingly hot. Even though it was such a warm sunny day, there was still a roaring fire burning in the fireplace.
And besides Hagrid, there were three other people in the room.
Harry, Ron, Hermione.
“Hello.” Kyle greeted.
“Hello, hello...” “Long time no see...Kyle.”
"good morning."
The three of them stood in front of the fireplace and replied nervously.
They were like a wall between Kyle and the fireplace. Their eyes were wandering from side to side as they spoke. From that look, anyone could tell that there was something wrong with the fireplace.
Fortunately, Hagrid came over at this time.
He took a copper kettle and made Kyle a cup of tea and brought a ferret sandwich.
“You just said, you want me to help you if you have something?”
"Yes." Kyle said, looking away from the fireplace, "I want to go to the Forbidden Forest to find some sorbus branches, is that okay?"
“Or to make that kind of amulet?” Hagrid asked.
Last year, the "talisman that must pass every test" made by Kyle became popular throughout Hogwarts, and he had heard about it.
Kyle nodded.
“The final exam is in two months, and we have to prepare in advance.”
"This is simple." Hagrid said with a smile: "I will send it to you tomorrow as much as you need."
“It doesn’t have to be so troublesome, I can just pick it myself.”
"But..." Hagrid frowned, obviously not wanting Kyle to go to the Forbidden Forest.
“Don’t worry, Hagrid, the sorbus tree is on the edge of the Forbidden Forest, so it’s definitely not in danger.”
Kyle continued: "And I need to try to pick branches with the right shape, otherwise it will be very troublesome to deal with later."
“This…that’s fine!”
Hagrid thought for a while and added: "But you can only find it at the edge of the Forbidden Forest."
“No problem.” Kyle originally thought so too, so naturally he wouldn’t object.
Then, Hagrid stood up and prepared to walk out.
“Hagrid, are you coming too?” Kyle asked.
"Of course, I can't let you go to the Forbidden Forest alone." Hagrid said, "Even if it's just the edge."
“What about the dragon egg?” Kyle asked, “Are you safe to leave it to Potter and the others?”
"It doesn't matter, dragon eggs are not that fragile, just be careful not to let the fireplace..."
"etc…"
Before Hagrid finished speaking, Hermione's surprised voice came from beside him.
“Kyle, how do you know there are dragon eggs here? You can’t see them there.”
After hearing her words, Hagrid was also stunned...Yes, how did Kyle know that he had the dragon egg.
“You don’t think that blocking the fireplace will make it okay.”
Kyle smiled and said: "I suggest you read more of the latest version of "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them". It is clearly written in the chapter about fire dragons that dragon eggs will emit a special sulfur smell when in flames. , it’s just not very obvious, and it can easily be ignored among the flames.”
"If you don't believe it, you can look back at Yaya. I think he will faint soon."
Kyle pointed to the side. The black hound owned by Hagrid was lying in the corner with its head hunched. It looked weak and completely different from the way it used to pounce on people before.
“Oh, Yaya, what’s wrong with you!”
Hagrid let out a strange cry, ran over quickly, picked up Fang and rushed out of the house.
