Dudley has been a little troubled recently. What he worried about happened. In just one week, he found that his height had grown by another five centimeters.
If this trend continues, his height will have to reach at least two meters before he will stagnate.
Sometimes being too tall or too big is not necessarily a good thing.
Especially standing together with Harry and the others, it was like a fairy tale, a strong man in white snow and a few dwarfs.
Sighing, Dudley pushed away the boulder half as big as himself and grabbed the huge sleeping spider in the cave under the boulder.
Acromantulas in winter are the best to catch. They will look for a relatively warm cave to enter a dormant period to survive the entire cold winter.
At this time, they will fall into a deep sleep until their bodies reach sufficient temperature, and are harmless to humans and animals.
This is the best time to catch them.
Because they are alive at this time.
Dudley took out a test tube, broke open the giant spider's venomous fang and placed it on the mouth of the tube. He pressed hard like opening a small floodgate, and soon the whole test tube was filled.
Carefully placing the test tube in place, Dudley squeezed the venom again until there was no drop left, and then used the same method to find another one.
It didn't take long for Dudley to collect a bunch of Acromantula venom.
After saying hello to Hagrid, Dudley walked towards the castle. Today was the weekly material collection day.
"Why is this little Dursley so disobedient?"
Hagrid looked at Dudley's leaving figure and scratched his head helplessly: "Didn't I tell him that the Forbidden Forest is dangerous?"
The only person who can call the 195-year-old Dudley a little guy is probably this three-meter-tall mixed-race giant.
I just heard him keep mumbling: "I heard from the nearby centaurs that an unknown big guy came here recently. He especially likes to collect the hair and saliva of other magical creatures, and collects the unicorn family. It was so pitiful that it had to hide deep in the Forbidden Forest. The last time I saw it, the hair on its back was almost bald."
On Christmas Eve, Dudley received a letter from Petunia and Vernon.
It said that they would not be picking up Dudley and Harry during the Christmas holidays. They were going to travel abroad.
travel?
Leave yourself and Harry to travel? Making him have to doubt.
"Am I really your biological child?"
Hermione, standing next to Dudley, helped him say the words he had yet to say.
Hermione also received a letter from the Grangers at the same time.
The content is exactly the same as Penny's.
"Probably the two families made an appointment to hang out together."
No need to be approximate, just certain.
Otherwise there would be no such coincidence.
"Harry, maybe after the holidays we will have more brothers or sisters."
Dudley held the letter in his hand and suddenly said to Harry.
Harry's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he became interested instantly: "Really? Then I want a sister. I heard Ron say that his sister Ginny is very cute."
Is this something you can do just by thinking about it?
Then you have to ask Vernon where the chromosomes are.
There were not many young wizards still staying in Hogwarts during Christmas. Looking at the entire Slytherin, there was only Dudley, and there were only a few from other houses. Together they couldn't even form a football team.
"Although Neville and Malfoy are not here, your exercise cannot stop."
Dudley first made a brief statement, and then he took out the study plan assigned to several people.
One serving per person.
A full 20 inches.
It will definitely make their vacation extremely fulfilling. As for Dudley's own plan, it must be calculated in feet.
Harry and Hermione took the parchment from Dudley and began to study it, but Ron was the only one who wanted to cry.
To be honest, he really wanted to make his vacation more relaxing and enjoyable, but everyone around him was working so hard and being so troubled, and he really couldn't settle down and just be a salty fish.
In a state of grief and anger, Ron continued to eat three large bowls of potatoes and ten chicken drumsticks until his belly was full and round.
The next morning, Dudley returned to his room after a day of morning exercise. His eyes glanced at the many things piled up in the corner. Those were all gifts sent by owls.
The piles are as high as the hills.
"Why do you feel like there are more gifts than when you were a student at St. George's Primary School?"
After rummaging around for a few times, I found that the square and neat pile at the bottom was a gift from the little wizards of Slytherin.
Everyone gave a gift, and no one was left behind.
When did you become so popular in Slytherin?
It's just that the green water in the water hurts people's eyes.
The cover is very nice, don’t use it next time.
Slytherin is obviously a combination of silver and green, so why do these people only see green?
Dudley did not take a closer look at these 'green' gifts and turned to flipping through other things.
The first is Hermione's gift. It is a small bag. It can be seen that it is hand-sewn. What surprises Dudley is that this is not an ordinary bag. There is a traceless stretching spell cast inside. Unfortunately, it may be Hermione's gift. The level is limited, and the space inside the bag is not large, but Dudley liked it very much and kept it close to him.
What Harry gave him was a set of fitness equipment made by wizards. Although there were relatively few wizards who exercised, it was not impossible, and the functionality was pretty good.
Neville gave him a set of herbal medicine books. Every wizard with good potions has better herbal medicine.
What Snape gave to Dudley was a set of profound potions books. The books exuded a faint black aura. It was obvious that this set of books was not for sale and could not be purchased through normal channels.
Ron gave him a set of wizard chess. Dudley had told him before that he wanted to study wizards' entertainment activities.
Malfoy gave him a civilized staff?
Dudley looked at the stick, which was thick at the top and thin at the bottom, slightly speechless. Is the huge round lump on it used to hit others on the head?
If it were equipped with spikes, it would be like a small mace.
Dudley swung it hard a few times, and it felt quite smooth, so he put it away.
As soon as Dudley came out of the lounge, he saw Harry with an excited face.
Yes, because there was no one in Slytherin, Dudley took Harry and the others to the Slytherin lounge in order to make it easier for them to study together.
There are too many rooms in Slytherin anyway.
"Brother D, look, this is an invisibility cloak!"
Harry thrust a transparent object into Dudley's hand like a treasure.
Invisibility cloak, a magical item that can hide the body.
According to the history of magic, the earliest invisibility cloak came from the third of the three Hallows of Death, a treasure obtained from the God of Death.
Legend has it that he has the ability to evade death.
As for whether it is really that magical, that is unknown.
In short, the invisibility cloaks circulating in wizard shops are all made of the skin of a kind of cloak called an invisible beast.
Dudley was certain that Harry's invisibility cloak was not the skin of some invisible beast, but was made of a more special material.
"Harry, do you know who gave this to you?"
