"Why do you feel so dangerous?"
Although he was not frightened by Hagrid's bloody face, Harry still felt his heart tremble for no reason.
Hagrid rarely tells a story, he has a character that talks about things when he wants to, but once he tells a story, it becomes a big deal.
"Danger?"
Hagrid, who was bending down on the ground and pulling his internal organs into the barrel, paused. After thinking for a moment, he nodded.
"It might be a little dangerous..." Hagrid said uncertainly: "It hurts a little bit, but you just get used to it. Once you get used to it, it won't hurt anymore."
"Are you going to the Forbidden Forest to challenge those guys?"
"Ha, how is that possible?" Hagrid waved his hand with a sneer, "With your small body now, you will be dead in the forest. Don't say too much, the centaurs in the forest can beat you both with bare hands. One handful, and they are probably the weakest group in the Forbidden Forest. Although their brains are good, they are not strong enough, and half of their combat effectiveness relies on poisoned spears and bows and arrows."
"It's okay to deal with ordinary little guys, but if you really encounter rough and fleshy ones, you have to rely on their priests. Centaurs have the ability to cast spells, and they are also very strong, but there are only a small number of such centaurs. "
"Then Hagrid...what method are you talking about?"
After seeing that this was not a method that no one except Hagrid could use, Harry breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
"You can feel magic, right, Harry?"
"Magic... uh... of course." Harry raised his hand and looked at the palm of his hand, then nodded.
"I mean the kind of... relatively clear perception, such as controlling its direction of movement. Can you do this?"
"This is difficult for a little wizard your age, but when you are a few years older, it should be no problem."
When Harry started to try what Hagrid said, Hagrid, who was cutting the horned animal into pieces, slowly said that he had few friends and not many people were willing to chat with him. In front of Harry, Hagrid always likes to talk more, maybe this is a person's loneliness.
"A long time ago, my wand was broken due to some things, but when I was expelled from Hogwarts, Professor Dumbledore, who had always been willing to believe in me, allowed me to stay in Hogwarts and serve as the Gamekeeper, he guaranteed me."
"He also quietly helped me repair my wand. At least in this way, I am still a wizard, but I can only use it secretly occasionally. If others see it, it will get the professor into trouble. He has helped me a lot. ”
"I was only sixteen years old at that time, and I had no idea how to be a gamekeeper. There was no such position at Hogwarts before, and no one could teach me how to do it."
"So I thought, let this messy Forbidden Forest no longer be as good as before. A few decades ago, many daring little wizards would sneak into the forest to try their courage. Because of this ridiculous excuse, every year Many people were injured, but those idiots still got in, and sooner or later they would die there because of doing so."
"I went into the forest and threw out every disobedient guy I met. Then I cleared the perimeter of the Forbidden Forest bit by bit and drove away the magical creatures that shouldn't be there."
"But at that time I was not as strong as I am now, and I was only three meters tall. There were many naughty things that I struggled to fight, and I even encountered a few guys who almost killed me. But this matter I have to do it, at least I have to repay Professor Dumbledore's trust in me."
"I must manage the Forbidden Forest well. I must draw a boundary so that those who threaten students are not allowed to enter. I must also divide the territory for them and not fight every day. But all this is needed. ..strength."
Hagrid clenched his fist and crushed the horned camel's hard skull into a ball of mud and threw it away casually. He seemed to be lost in memories, with a nostalgic smile on his face.
"But if I can't use magic in front of others, how should I use it to become stronger?"
"I do have part of the blood of giants, but this is not enough. Giants are so powerful because they gather into tribes. There are many magical creatures that can kill giants one-on-one. Even if the giants are placed in the Forbidden Forest, They are more likely to be dead than alive.”
"Just one day, the horse people found me. They were willing to help me establish the insurmountable boundary, and were also willing to help me watch the forbidden forest at night and patrol it to prevent those reckless children from being lost in the forest. life."
"I agreed to their request. I found a great place for them as a settlement for their tribe. I killed the Chimaera herd that originally stayed there and made the canyon with waterfalls and streams a A stable new home for the horse people."
"But the number of those Chimeras was a bit large, there were twenty or thirty of them. Even if there were centaurs helping me, I still had a hard time fighting them. Those guys have the blood of dragons, magical creatures with the blood of dragons. They all have very strong strength, even those skinny Thestrals can easily pull dozens of tons of weight to fly in the sky."
"From that moment on, I fell in love with dragons."
"So I asked those centaurs, you are so smart, you should know how to make me strong, right? Make me as strong as a dragon, so that I can clean up the disobedient little cuties in the forest one by one. In the past, I will be able to do what Professor Dumbledore asked me to do."
"The centaurs told me a lot of things that I didn't understand, but it doesn't matter. Although I didn't understand most of the things, I did understand one thing, and that is why magical creatures are so powerful than wizards. Many bodies.”
"I remember what he said to me. He said: The original centaurs could all use magic, but unlike now, centaurs who can use magic may not necessarily be able to use powerful magic. In order to survive, Their ancestors made compromises.”
"Some centaurs gave up their ability to cast spells and instead integrated magic into their bodies to strengthen their bodies. A small number of centaurs who were born with outstanding magic became priests of the centaurs tribe to make up for the loss. Most centaurs cannot use magic, and because of this change, life for centaurs has become much easier."
"He said: Hagrid, since you can't use magic, if you want to become stronger, try this. The reason why those magical creatures have such strong bodies is because they integrate magic into their bodies, and because of this , There are not many magical creatures that can use magic. Only those who are born with very powerful magic can have strong spell-casting abilities while having a strong body."
"Just like the Sphinx, they are very difficult guys. I suffered several losses at their hands. Fortunately, my fists are hard enough."
Hagrid lowered his head and laughed twice. He couldn't guess the Sphinx's riddle, but he could shut up the Sphinx with his fists and even swallow the words he said.
"So I started to try, maybe because the giant itself can cast spells, and I have the blood of a wizard. I have much more magic than other wizards, and much more than other magical creatures, even if I integrate the magic into Physically, I can still use magic.”
"But at the same time, I also became stronger."
"I started to grow taller again, more than half a meter taller, and I was almost as strong as a giant. At that time, there was a small tribe of five giants in the Forbidden Forest of Hogwarts. After I became stronger, I It took some effort to kill them. The giants were a group of greedy villains. They were rude and unreasonable, and they destroyed the restricted area I marked again and again. I had to convince all the guys in the forest, so I killed them. , hanging their heads on the tree.”
"What the centaur said is true. After integrating magic into your body, your body will become stronger again, but first, you must be able to clearly perceive the flow of magic, and then control them, allowing the magic to interact with your bones. , muscles, and skin fuse, and finally you can—"
A scream interrupted Hagrid's murmuring to himself. Hagrid suddenly looked up and saw Harry rolling in pain on the grass. The boy whose face was originally red was now pale, and big beads of sweat were dripping from his forehead. , this extreme pain is not fake!
"Harry! Harry! Harry!!!"
Hagrid was instantly panicked and rushed over. The solid wooden table with meat in front of him was smashed to pieces by him. He carefully knelt down with panic written on his face.
"Who is it!!!"
The murderous shouts were deafening, and the Forbidden Forest fell silent for an instant with the sound of insects.
"get out!!!"
Hagrid furiously shook his fist and shattered the burning fire. The scattered flames illuminated the dimness of the sunset and ignited the burning anger in Hagrid's eyes.
