HP's Foreign Land

Chapter 396 Finding Hagrid

Heimdall jumped out of the water, his head was exposed to the cold winter wind, and he shivered.Although his body was still soaked in the water, compared with the biting temperature above, the frozen lake water became as warm as spring.

Turning around, he took the exchange bag and moss lamp from Sambu—Comrade Sambu felt that it was inconvenient for Heimdall to swim with the things. The leader hurriedly prepared the benefits of "filial piety" for himself, and when the two parties cleared up, everyone was happy.

Once again Heimdall was able to prove that mermaids have no sense of humor. Comrade Sambu nodded seriously and watched as Heimdall skilfully climbed up the rope ladder to the boat, turned over and dived back into the lake.

On the deck, Victor had already prepared hot tea, towels, and thick blankets. As soon as Heimdall stepped on the deck, his boyfriend quickly stepped forward to bring tea and water, took the things in his hand, and put him on the deck. Wipe off the water on his body, and then put a thick blanket on him.

The temperature on the deck was a bit low, and the two quickly entered the cabin.

Seeing Heimdall's lips turning purple from the cold, Victor couldn't help rubbing his lips with his fingers, "Take a hot bath, I've already asked the house elf to turn on the water."

Holding the cup, Heimdall smiled at him, showing two rows of healthy white teeth, "It's okay, I look a little embarrassed, but actually I feel fine, I seem to be getting used to the temperature in the lake."

Victor didn't think so. Heimdall's teeth were chattering when he spoke. He was a flesh-and-blood human being, not a fish. How could he not be cold after soaking in the open-air winter lake for so long.

He just wanted to relax himself, and Victor secretly sighed while being moved.

If he could, he really wanted to go into the water with Rigg, but unfortunately, as expected, the mermaid didn't welcome him.

That day Heimdall entered the lake again after many days, and the Mermaid Patrol came to pick him up according to the time stated in the letter. Even though he knew the result, Heimdall couldn't help asking if the Mermaid Patrol could add another person, and the Mermaid Patrol thought He refused his request without thinking.

"We will never go to land, so we don't welcome humans into our territory." This was Sambu's answer at the time.

Heimdall was disappointed when he heard this, but he had no choice. He didn't want to provoke Sambu, saying that his boyfriend was thinking about his own safety. If he was so honest, the mermaid would definitely go crazy.

Thinking of this, Heimdall said to Victor: "The mermaids want me to go to the Forbidden Forest to find the centaur on their behalf. I have never seen a centaur before." He looked at Victor with fearful eyes, "When You go with me sometime."

There's nothing frightening about his sparkling eyes and eager expression.

Victor couldn't help smiling when he saw this, "Of course." He said and hooked Heimdall's neck, and the two entered the room together.

Victor entered the bathroom and found that the water was full, and raised his voice, "Will you take a shower now?"

"Wash now."

Heimdall put the blanket on the end of the bed, and the house elf took it away in a second. When he entered the bathroom, he saw his boyfriend squinting at him pretending to be obscene and smiling, "Towel?" Mdar's towels. "A comb?" Picking up a comb from the shelf. "Soap?" A piece of soap flashed past Heimdall's eyes, and the last thing that came into view was a frontal close-up of Master Krum, "Or me?"

Heimdall blinked his eyes calmly, and stroked his fingers up his temples, rubbing them all the way to the back of Victor's head, "Do I have any other choice?"

"Oh! Mr. Sturluson!!!" Victor threw away the towel and comb, and jumped on him...to help him brush his back.

Afterwards, the two chatted across a shower curtain, and Victor did not leave in a hurry after brushing his back. He really wanted to know how Heimdall suddenly became a mermaid ambassador.

Heimdall briefly talked about the situation with his boyfriend, and then said, "I don't think it's good for us to enter the forest rashly, so I wondered if we could find Mr. Hagrid. He should know a lot about the Forbidden Forest."

Victor let out an "um", and Heimdall didn't see the thoughtful expression on his face through the shower curtain.

"If you tell Rubeus Hagrid, you're telling Hogwarts and Dumbledore about it."

Heimdall in the shower curtain replied, "No problem, this is the territory of Hogwarts, even if they know it, there is nothing wrong with it. My only worry now is that Mr. Hagrid is not willing to lead us the way."

"He will." Victor said without thinking.

"Why are you so sure?" Heimdall opened the shower curtain, revealing a wet head.

"He has pets in the Forbidden Forest, and he loves all the animals in the world." Victor took the opportunity to go up and chirp.

"Hey, it's all water." Despite this reminder, Heimdall still didn't refuse his kiss. "Pet? What pet?"

"Take Olar with you when you go." Victor said as if he had never heard of it.

"A trick?" Heimdall pouted, and retracted his head.

***

[Go to the Forbidden Forest?Take the toffee with you, it has enough intimidating effect, at least think about it before werewolves and trolls attack you, you can take this opportunity to run away. ] What the pods said was serious.

"... It's good to have a sense of crisis, but don't be cynical!" Heimdall couldn't laugh or cry.

[I've said it before, I'm a cat's mouth, where is a crow? ] The pod looked like I couldn't understand it.

"I thought you would be clamoring to go, why suddenly..." Heimdall caught it unexpectedly, picked it up, pinched its limbs for a while, and pinched its belly for a while, "Could it be transferred? "

[Put me down!put me down! ] Pod hates not touching the ground. [I have more important things to do, and the Forbidden Forest can't run, so I can go there anytime. ]

"What important thing?"

Victor, who was sitting on the sofa reading a book, suddenly interjected, "It has already made an appointment with Katenen to play a wizard chess match, and the winner will be determined in [-] games." back to translate.

Heimdall didn't ask how Katenen knew. Thinking about it carefully, the professor has always been surprised by pod cats. He probably knows something, but Professor Katenen didn't pierce the window paper, so he was happy to let it go. nature.

"Can you do it? Professor Katenen is famous in our school for his superb chess skills." Heimdall looked at Dou Pod suspiciously.

[Will I not know that he is superb at chess? !It's true that you're a bad chess player, but it doesn't mean I'm the same as you! ] Pod was so unhappy that he whipped Heimdall with his tail, hurting his self-esteem.

Heimdall grabbed it by the tail, "After we leave, I allow you to tell Professor Katenen about this."

[you sure? ]

"In case something happens in the woods, you have to leave a way out for yourself. Remember, we will talk about it after we leave."

The pod cat drew back its tail abruptly, jumped up and down, gnashing its teeth, [What told Katenen, I can't speak, what do you mean, bullying me can't speak human language, right? ] And hit hard again.

Heimdall laughed nonchalantly, "You can scratch it with your claws."

***

That afternoon, Heimdall couldn't wait to propose to find Hagrid. After eating, the two of them set off together with toffee. Olar flew in mid-air, circling above their heads.

Bringing Olar was still Victor's suggestion, this time it was just to test the attitude, Heimdall originally thought it was not a big deal.Moreover, Olar is a nocturnal animal, and the daytime is its normal rest time. It is really unbearable to wake it up from sleep.

Maybe they went at the wrong time. Looking into the half-closed window from the outside, it was dark inside, and there were various signs indicating that no one was there.

Heimdall was a little disappointed, and was about to go home, and choose another time to come back, but Toffee jumped out of Heimdall's arms, rushed to the door of the wooden house, sniffed at the crack of the door, and then used his head There was a banging on the door.

This action startled Heimdall, so he ran over and pulled it away, saying: "It's okay, let's come again next time." He thought that Toffee was knocking on the door for him, but in fact, Toffee was very clever. Very, and better than him.

The half-closed window on the side creaked open, and a big black shadow jumped out of it. As soon as the shadow landed, it barked happily twice at Toffee. The big black shadow was Hagrid's pet, the hound Fang Fang.

Heimdall couldn’t understand when he saw it. As soon as he let go, Toffee ran towards Fangya, and Yaya happily circled around Toffee. For a beast, this action represents an attack, but here, it is a small action that is not worth mentioning when Toffee and Yaya are playing.

When he first came to Hogwarts, Toffee stayed with Hagrid for a while. At that time, Hagrid liked to take Toffee with him wherever he went, so as to observe its various habits. Maybe at that time, Toffee Sugar and Tooth form a friendship.

They chased and played, and Heimdall and Victor waited patiently. The two even sat on the steps in front of the wooden house and chatted.

Olar landed on Hagrid's wooden roof and dozed off bit by bit after a while.

Olar didn't know how long he had slept. When it was drooling in its sleep and jumped at a bunch of spiders sticking with tomato juice, the owner's call suddenly sounded in his ear: "Olar——"

Olar opened his eyes in a jerk, and saw the master standing under the wooden house, raising his head and waving.

Olar didn't dare to neglect, so he got up with wings, and then the master walked towards the Forbidden Forest. The owner's boyfriend, toffee, and big black dog were already waiting at the entrance of the Forbidden Forest. Olar gliding in mid-air, towards them fly away.

***

I don’t know how Toffee and Yaya communicate. When Heimdall thought they were done playing and could go back, Toffee excitedly bit his pant leg and dragged him towards the Forbidden Forest. The place where the Myra had bitten quickly rotted, and Heimdall's trousers were one leg high and one leg low.

But because of this, Heimdall understood the meaning of the toffee, and Fang could lead them to find their master, Hagrid. Fang was Hagrid's loyal partner, and he was often inseparable in life. He knew the scope and time of his master's activities very well.

To be honest, although entering the Forbidden Forest rashly is a bit dangerous, Heimdall is still a little excited, just like that night when he sneaked to see the fire-breathing dragon, he was always agitated, so he decided to follow Yaya first.

In Heimdall's impression, Yaya is very timid, he will come back if he can't find it, and he will turn around and run if he encounters danger. This is what Draco told him.

Draco had a bad impression of Fang, maybe had a bad experience.

It is safer to follow a timid guide than to be led by a bold one.

Victor is noncommittal to Heimdall's proposal, he will follow up if he wants to enter, and he will go back if he wants to go back.

In this way, the two of them and the three animals walked into the Forbidden Forest together, which was opaque and not very friendly, on a sunny afternoon.

The deeper you go, the worse the light transmission in the forest. After three or four minutes, Heimdall had to light up his wand to release fluorescent flashes.

Yaya has been leading the way, and Toffee walks side by side with it. It can be seen that Toffee likes Yaya very much. Sometimes Yaya will put some dirty things in front of Toffee, but Toffee doesn’t show any signs of it. Show no displeasure or impatience.

"It seems that there are more spiders." Heimdall said casually, looking up at the tall and straight trees around him. "Are there a lot of spider nests here, and there should be a lot of spider webs between the trees?"

Luckily he wasn't Ron, he wasn't afraid of spiders.

"It seems that Mr. Hagrid is looking for his pet." Victor said lightly.

Heimdall was taken aback, thought for a while and said, "...is he raising spiders?"

Victor nodded, "I heard that he is not small."

"...Does that mean we're headed for a big spider's nest?"

"There may be more than one who is not small."

"There shouldn't be any danger," Heimdall said uncertainly, "Yaya is not afraid at all." Even so, Heimdall's footsteps seemed to be getting stronger.A big spider?What should it be like? !His appetite was all whetted.

"Even if it is an animal, it will want to show off in front of its friends." Victor said. "Maybe it will make me look tall and brave."

Heimdall looked at Fangya, who seemed a little too happy in front of him. It seemed that Fangya was so dazzled by the appearance of the toffee that he forgot his fear.

No wonder it is said that strong emotions can make people brave, and timid Fangya is no exception.

As he was walking, Victor suddenly stopped moving.

Heimdall stopped in confusion, and at the same time felt that the surrounding woods seemed to be too quiet... This eerie silence seemed to tell them that there was some kind of unsafe factor lurking around.

Victor seemed to look up inadvertently: "Be careful, eight-eyed spiders are cannibals, they like to move in the dark."

With a heart like a mirror, Heimdall raised his magic wand, and threw a few clusters of fluorescent light into the sky. The surrounding forests were instantly lit up, and the rustling sound came from nothing in an instant, like the tide, sending out pieces of noise. The vibrating sound.

"Wow!" Yaya shouted into the air.

The toffee on the ground turned around quickly, and flew towards the top of Heimdall like an arrow off the string. At the same time, Heimdall's wand sprayed out a magic, and the body of toffee just passed Heimdall's eyes, and the magic sank into it. Inside Toffee, the body in mid-air suddenly enlarged like a blowing balloon. The prototype Chimera was extremely ferocious, with its fangs exposed, and the cooperation between one person and one beast was perfect.

The big furry black spider that was bigger than an adult suddenly appeared on top of Heimdall's head and fell from the web. With a bang, it was thrown to the ground by the toffee. After entering the spider's body, a stench immediately spread in the air. The spider's viscous body fluids gushed out from between the toffee's teeth. The toffee didn't move at all. The spider screamed in pain, a piercing, piercing sound wave that made people quite uncomfortable.

At the same time, thousands of spiders flooded towards the light source.

"My child——" followed by a series of strange clicks.

The densely packed spiders, big and small, suddenly stopped moving, like a TV screen with the pause button pressed.

A huge monster stepped out of the black background, stepped into the radiation range of the light cluster, and appeared in front of their eyes. It moved like a hill crumbling on the horizon.

The black fluff on the body of the giant is darker than other eight-eyed spiders. It looks gray, like an old man with white hair, and its eyeballs are similar to the gray and white of rocks. The eyeballs looked lifeless on it.

Can't see it?Heimdall pondered secretly.

"Aragok——" The huge creature uttered a word that Heimdall couldn't understand, and the sound of the sound made one's scalp tingle.

But he understood the first one, kid?Heimdall suddenly thought of something and looked at Toffee. At this moment, the spider, who was suppressed by Toffee and had no power to fight back, let out a short scream, shook violently, and stopped moving.

"Aragok——" the scream enraged the giant.

Toffee was not afraid at all, holding one of the spider's legs covered in black fluff, strutting forward, tilting his neck, the leg was thrown in front of the monster with a plop, and yellow-green body fluids flowed out along the hideous incision , accompanied by nauseating bursts of stench.

After a moment of dead silence passed, the clicking sound of the pliers biting together came overwhelmingly, carrying a deadly murderous aura.

Terrible, I stabbed the spider's nest, and I was passive.

Heimdall suddenly thought of their guide, and hurriedly turned to look for it. Where's Hagrid?Where is its owner?

After squinting for a long time, he finally found Fang Fang, who was shivering in a ball behind Victor, trying his best to pretend to be the background.
