Chapter 326: Giant tribe with gifts

Not long after sunrise, Hagrid and Mrs. Maxim had to be
forced
to wake up. Fastest update
The reason is simple, and it makes people laugh and cry, because the giant snoring voice caused a small-scale avalanche on the mountain after all.
Fortunately, at least Maca found some signs in advance to protect them from the falling snow.
"I counted it just before dawn. There are eighty-two giants that can be seen below ... the one lying by the lake at the bottom of the valley should be the one of them." , Maca said to the other two.
In the giant community, the leader is generally referred to as "Gugo", and the way that belligerent giants chose Gugo since ancient times is naturally wrestling.
A giant is a kind of war-fighting creature with blood flowing in its veins.
Although this kind of internal fighting is always regarded by the wizard as barbaric and rude, anyway, the strong fighting force and vitality of giants are definitely related to their habits.
Only in ancient times, when the giants were still active and free, Gugo changed unusually frequently. At that time, Gugo always represented the highest level of combat power in the giant communities.
But now, the world ’s largest giant community is only in the valley, and even if they are still combative, they will inevitably lose many potential combatants.
Just a moment ago, Maca had already seen the ancient Gogo by the bottom of the valley, but what he saw was that he was a delicious lazy guy.
Perhaps when he first took the position of Gugo, his combat power was stronger than other giants. This can be seen from his obviously taller lap, but it is not necessary now.
"Eighty-two ... there are only so few left! There were so many before ..." Hagrid looked at the valley below, sighing with emotion, "At the beginning, it was said that the whole world had one full. Hundreds of tribes, see now ... "
Both Hagrid and Mrs. Maxim are deeply rooted in giants, and even Mrs. Maxim, who refuses to confess verbally, is now complex.
To put it bluntly, this is the result of a surge in wizards and Muggles.
Although the wizards have rarely waged a large-scale war against the giants, as the area of ​​the wizard's activities continues to expand, and the wizards are always ensuring the isolation of Muggles from the magic world, there are fewer and fewer places for the magical creatures to live. .
However, creatures like giants have always had a great demand for living space. They not only need a place for daily survival, but also a relatively free individual space.
Not only do giants hunt other creatures for survival, they also often wrestle because of the war that day. When they live together as they do now, the phenomenon of infighting occurs extremely frequently.
"Before departure, Dumbledore talked to me for a while ..." Hagrid stared softly at the sleeping giant below, "Dumbledore said it was our fault, and the wizard rushed them together. Children, they have no choice but to live like this ... "
"If I were to say this, it wouldn't be clear to anyone who was right or wrong," Maca said, shaking her head. "Many magical creatures have gone extinct in history. Since they will go extinct, it means they haven't been like wizards Become more powerful "
"In ancient times, we wizards also seem to have experienced struggles, and our lives today are the result of the efforts of our ancestors."
He thought about it, and then turned his eyes on Hagrid and Mrs. Maxim.
"Like the two of you, there is a common blood between the wizard and the giant ..."
"I just"
Mrs. Maxim seemed to want to use her old "skeleton big" theory to deny it, but Maka shook her hand at her.
"I actually guess occasionally, how exactly were we wizards born? How did they evolve to what they are now ..." Maka said, "Maybe the blood on our bodies is simply mixed. Isn't it? "
Just as wizards occasionally awaken "Easy Maggs" like Tonks, the blood of wizards has always been mysterious. In other words, it has always been "suspicious".
"Don't say this," for a moment when all three thought about it, Maca took the initiative to set aside that topic. "Hagrid, I remember before you set off, Dumbledore should have you bring some gifts to Are they Gugu? What did they bring? "
Speaking of this topic, Hagrid apparently came to spirit.
As mentioned earlier, the giants hate wizards, and they hate their magic more. In fact, they hate it when wizards use magic to harass or deal with them.
But their favorite gift is magic.
"This is the Goublay fairy fire, Dumbledore himself."
Hagrid pulled out a rather large torch from the parcel that was set aside. When he took off the metal cover on top of the torch, a pretty beautiful blue-and-white flame burst into flames.
The brightness of this flame is not high, it has no temperature, and it is not too practical. But since ancient times, it has another name, eternal fire.
This is a magic flame made from ancient magic cracked by scholars. That magic inherits the consistent impression that ancient magic gives people "complexity and difficulty", and requires a relatively high level of magic to complete.
The reason why this magic is not included in Hogwarts courses is roughly based on the above two points.
The reason it is called "eternal fire" is precisely because this flame can burn forever, even if the caster dies, it will not affect its magic effect.
But Maca knows that, in essence, this thing is not a "magic flame" that burns magic, not even a "flame".
Because the "burning" of the Gublai immortal fire does not require any fuel, but a kind of magic related to light only.
"Anything else?"
This first gift immediately dispelled most of Maca's interest, but to be honest, the giant did like this "flashy" magic item because it looked very "pretty".
"And this," said Hagrid, and took out a large package. "The helmet made of fairies is said to be indestructible!"
Like Gublai Sinhuo, this helmet is also the kind of "visual first-class" thing.
But this is at least much better than the useless flame. Anyone who brings the four words "fairy product" is generally not a big deal.
Of course, to say that this thing falls into the hands of giants, it is actually an ornament, anyway, they cannot wear it!
After that, Hagrid took out several gifts one after another, but those things were obviously more ordinary than the first two, but there was nothing to say.
They waited on the ridge until close to noon, and finally found a good time.
To put it bluntly, Gugu finally got up!
Negotiations with giants need to be carried out step by step. Those big guys are inherently impatient, so the three agreed to send a Gubla Immortal Fire first. After agreeing to send a gift the next day, leave the Giant Tribe immediately.
Afterwards, headed by the seemingly tallest Hagrid, he lifted the Gublaixian fire above his head and headed for the valley depression below.
When several giants first noticed their "malnutrition little ones", with a roar, the atmosphere of the giant tribe became suppressed.
"Hold up the gift and stare at Gugo's place. The other giants don't need to look."
This is the custom of foreigners when they enter the giant's territory, and they want to meet Gugo, just as the three of them are doing.
When they really stood on the same plane, they finally felt the most intuitive, the sense of oppression originating from their body shape.
Maca is of course the shortest here, and he is less than 6 feet tall.
When he walked among the giants who were twenty feet upwards ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Even if he didn't need to fear at all, he couldn't help but show some dignity.
Because they are not fighting this time, giants like creatures need to fight with them easily, but if they want to get along with them, it will take a lot of effort.
Fortunately, the giants of rules that have been passed down since ancient times still understand.
When the three of them went all the way to the valley lake, even if the giants on both sides were frequently agitated, the traditional customs deeply imprinted in their bones still made these "violent madmen" forcibly suppress the war in their hearts.
"Roar"
A closer giant yelled at them, causing Mrs. Maxim to tremble.
In the end, they finally approached the lake in a steady pace, and there was not much distance from that Gugo. At the same time, the agitated giants gradually quieted down.
When they got close, Maca realized that thick ice had actually formed on the surface of the lake, but it was broken by the giants with great force.
Gugo, the giant tribe, was lying on the edge of the lake at this time, and when Maca and others arrived here, he was snarling and let the tribe men feed him food.
Unlike other giants, which only use rough and large animal skins to hide their parts, this Gugu wears obviously a set of old leather armor inherited from previous generations.
Giants have been living in poverty since ancient times. However, in ancient times, when wars of the wizard were frequent, the giants also participated as mercenaries.
Maca knew that this set of equipment should have survived those chaotic times.
"Albus Dumbledore, a gift to the Gore Gogur, a tribute.") !!
