Chapter 347: Signal
Chapter 347 Signal
In the third week of his stay in the Fire Dragon Sanctuary, Kyle has gradually become accustomed to this sometimes busy and sometimes leisurely life.
More importantly, it has been very rewarding.
These days, he earned two sets of curse-proof gloves, a total of one hundred and twenty-five galleons, just by selling the damaged and inferior goods.
But that’s all…
At the end of the second week, the fire dragons had the most intense and longest-lasting melee.
This time, even Kyle couldn't take any time off. He followed Newt and Chris and rushed to treat three injured fire dragons, which was more than the previous two times combined.
When it was over, there were only the last two fire dragons left in the sky.
A Hungarian Horntail, and a Ukrainian Ironbelly... not the one Kyle encountered before, this one was larger.
They only rested for one day before continuing to compete for the highest cliff.
Most people gathered around and waited for the final result.
From a size point of view, the Ukrainian Iron Belly is obviously more dominant... Charlie said that it is almost seven tons, and just sitting there is several times larger than the Hungarian Horntail. It looks like an adult dragon carrying a child.
But Charlie was not optimistic about it.
“Although they are both Ukrainian iron bellies and have similar body shapes, they are a little less intelligent than the old Pinot.
If before, when everyone was almost unable to fly, it was the one who finally got the chance, but it didn’t seize it, and now..."
Charlie shook his head, "A larger body means more consumption, and one day's rest is not enough. The Hungarian Horntail obviously knew this, so it launched an attack in advance.
…It has no chance. "
The fact is the same as what Charlie said.
Only three hours later, the movement of the Ukrainian iron belly slowed down, swaying like a target in the sky.
The Hungarian Horntail is like a seasoned hunter, taking advantage of its speed and quickly gaining the upper hand.
Everyone can see that the outcome of this battle has been decided, and the only thing left is a matter of time.
"Hogwarts is about to start school soon." Feeling a little bored, Professor Locknear walked up to Kyle and asked in a low voice, "Is it September too?"
“September first,” Kyle said, “less than two weeks away.”
"If school starts, you should be in fourth grade."
“Yes.” Kyle nodded.
"Are you interested in transferring to Beauxbatons?" Professor Locknir suddenly said: "If it is you, I guarantee that you can use the best materials in your alchemy class."
Kyle looked at Professor Locknear with questions in his head.
No, what kind of custom is it in Beauxbatons to persuade people to transfer to another school when they meet?
Their principal Maxim is like this, and so are their professors. What, could this be part of their on-the-job training?
“I’m sorry, I don’t have this idea at the moment.”
After a moment of silence, Kyle shook his head and said: "And the O.W.L.s exam will be held next year, so it is not appropriate to transfer to another school at this time."
“It’s okay, it’s okay, I’ll just ask, don’t worry...”
Professor Locknear waved his hands repeatedly, then leaned next to Kyle and whispered: "Actually, Ms. Maxim asked me to ask... When I wrote to her a few days ago, I accidentally told her about the situation here. , she seems to want you to transfer to Beauxbatons.
Do you actually know each other? "
To be honest, when Maxim asked him to poach someone in the letter, he was actually quite confused.
Although I feel it is a bit rude to do this, for the sake of funds, I have no choice.
What he acquired was not just defective products. There are also complete materials and dragon blood, these are the big ones.
Although he didn’t receive much each time, the three times combined cost him nearly a thousand galleons, which must be reimbursed by the school.
That's why he wrote to Ms. Maxim by reporting the situation, and by the way, he reminded her overtly and covertly to prepare the money quickly.
Unexpectedly, the money was not sent, but instead I was given the task of undermining Hogwarts...
But no matter what, he is considered finished. “Ms. Maxim?”
Kyle thought for a while and said, "I met her once in Paris during the vacation last year."
“Oh…no wonder.”
Professor Locknear suddenly said: "I remember that she rarely leaves France. Under normal circumstances, it should be impossible to meet the little wizard at Hogwarts."
While the two were talking, the battle between the two fire dragons was coming to an end.
There was no surprise, the Hungarian Horntails won.
It stood on the cliff, roaring, spitting out mushroom-shaped fire clouds into the sky.
Dragon roars were heard one after another from all around... It was a kind of expression of surrender.
“It’s finally over.” Charlie rubbed his forehead.
He hasn't had a good rest for more than a month. He had been tense before, but now he relaxed suddenly. He felt as if his head had been punched hard. It was extremely uncomfortable.
You should be able to have a good rest for a few days now.
Although he still has a lot of things to do in the future, there is no need to rush, just take your time...
"Roar!"
There was another dragon roar.
Different from the previous voice expressing surrender, this roar was full of anger.
Charlie was startled and suddenly came to his senses.
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound in unison...
It was an Australian opal eye. It did not lie on the ground like other fire dragons, but flew in the air, spraying dragon flames angrily on the ground.
At the same time, a dazzling red light exploded next to it, leaving a large spherical pattern in mid-air.
That is a signal unique to dragon owners.
“Damn…those cunning hyenas!”
Charlie quickly got on the broom and flew in that direction.
“Attention someone is beating the dragon’s egg.”
As if seeing Kyle's doubts, Professor Locknear explained in a low voice: "That is a signal unique to the Fire Dragon Sanctuary. The red color represents an unidentified intruder, and the round ball represents the dragon egg."
“Are we going to help?” Kyle asked.
“No need, someone has already gone.” Chris walked over and shook his head.
"That's right." Locknir said with a smile, "The reserve has already guessed that this would happen. Since two weeks ago, there have been people guarding each nest of dragon eggs.
Moreover, there is special protective magic on the dragon egg, so you can't apparate with it. "
As he spoke, more and more dragon farmers arrived near the Australian Oval Eye.
But a few minutes later, two more red lights exploded in the south, and then in the north, there were also two...
Signals were sent from seven places in total, all at great distances and in different directions.
“There are so many people, and it’s all at the same time...it seems like they’ve planned it for a long time.”
Chris was a little surprised, but his expression didn't change at all.
