Conquest knights from Hogwarts

Chapter 342
"Helmet. Armor body protection!"

The hysterical scream came a second before the slender beam of flames reached the end of the jet.

Umbridge's stubby fingers were gripping an equally stubby wand, only eight inches long, the first time Ron had seen one so short, but length wasn't everything, at least by Umbridge. The read out armor body was released normally at this time.

But as the muffled sound of the second heavy punching bombardment spread, the flame, which was almost parallel to the ground, suddenly rose by more than 45 degrees in [-] second, and was slowly approaching [-] degrees.

If the fire-breathing dragon is a dragon, then this neck can be ignored, it must be the rhythm of being broken, but there is only an annoyed growl from the Forbidden Forest, it seems that after being punched by Hagrid twice, this guy is a little It hurts.

The source of the flame was cut off, and the flame rising towards the sky naturally disappeared. The fine sparks fell from the sky. After losing the support of the magic power, the magic flame disappeared instantly. The breath of the fire dragon was not produced by a chemical reaction. The fire, which is a kind of magical flame, is almost the most eye-catching one of the iconic talent magic of the fire dragon.

But for such a beautiful sky, "falling snow", only the little wizard can make a voice of praise. As Umbridge, who was almost set on fire by the flames, she is still holding her wand, and she has not recovered from the shock just now. Come to yourself.

Even if the flame didn't touch her armor spell at all, it didn't stop her from thinking that she just passed through the gate of hell, imagining a life-and-death drama.

"You are doing it! Murder! Murder!!! Murder!!!"

The sharp screams were extremely piercing at this moment. How could Umbridge, who dared to stand with Fudge and confront Ron for his life, easily forgive the attack that almost killed her?
She recovered quickly, at least at this moment, Hagrid hadn't dragged the guy out of the Forbidden Forest, but the sound of dragging the chain became clearer, Hagrid was approaching.

"Aren't you all right?"

Ron pointed to the scorched yellow and black marks left by the flames on the ground. The end of the marks was at least ten feet away from where Umbridge was standing now. Although the flames only needed an instant to cross these ten feet, But it braked after all, leaving a seemingly long 'safety distance'.

"Everyone is fine."

Ron pointed at the little wizard who was called by him and ran [-] feet to the side. Although some people were also frightened by the fire, they were only frightened, and most of them were quite calm. , In fact, it’s nothing, Hogwarts can see fire dragons flying around in the sky every day, breathing fire from their mouths to help each other take a bath, the dragon’s breath is quite familiar to the students here.

"Unless you pee your pants in fear, I don't think the flames pose any real threat. Maybe the big guy is just making a naughty joke."

"Senior~Investigator of the Ministry of Magic, you don't seem to be so brave. I thought you were very brave to come to Hogwarts to bite people for Fudge."

Umbridge, with trembling lips, held the quill with the strength to crush it and wrote and drew on the parchment. She really wanted to pull out her wand and cast the most vicious curse on Ron's back at this moment, but she didn't want to. Dare, let alone whether my magic can be effective on Ron, once I make a move, my handle will really fall into Ron's hands, and there is no way for Fudge to save her from the compulsory tour of Azkaban for life tickets.

Ron, who found that these words didn't work, didn't care about it. He threw the cart of meat on the ground and strode towards the Forbidden Forest. Ron shouted as he walked, "Hagrid! I'll help you, Why is the big guy so naughty, scaring people to pee their pants."

"Wow! This guy is cool! It's just a little silly, right? It actually glared at me with its nostrils, isn't it incompetent?"

There was another muffled sound, as if something heavy jumped and fell to the ground. The trees in the Forbidden Forest shook their leaves, and the ground under their feet seemed to tremble for a moment.

The sound of the iron chain moving became several times lighter at once. Hagrid, who was striding forward, walked out of the Forbidden Forest first, and behind him, Ron, who was trotting, was holding a magically strengthened chain that was almost as thick as a normal person's thigh. thick steel chains.

This chain at least fifty feet long is tied behind a huge head that reflects the metal light, almost blending with the neck. This is a 'dog leash' specially made for this big guy. with it.

A huge sense of oppression shrouded everyone present from the appearance of the giant beast chained to its neck. Most of the fire dragons in Hogwarts are young dragons, and most of them have wingspans between sixteen and sixteen. Between 35 feet, but this behemoth is more than 35 feet from the ground alone.

That one has been magnified several times, and its black head, which is five or six points similar to that of a fire dragon, is covered with sharp spikes that grow backwards. Its whole body is shining with a genuine cold light. It is the cold color of metal, without any flesh and blood. The warm color of life.

What Hagrid said before is correct, this is indeed a big guy, at least an order of magnitude bigger than the hundreds of years old ancient dragon dragon old Burton who is the gatekeeper of the dragon training ground, and old Burton is the largest Ukrainian among the dragons Ironbelly, with a wingspan of at least a hundred feet, was an absolute colossus.

Naturally, the transfer students whose legs were already weak managed to stay on the ground with the support of the old students standing behind them. This was the first time for them to see such a 'real' magical creature beyond imagination.

It was so amazing that they began to wonder if they had come to another world, or what they saw now was the true face of the magic world?
This huge monster exuding a cold and brutal aura is like a giant killing beast with so much emotion. The huge beast that has never been heard from any books and documents not only brought unknown and fear to them, but also inexplicably made the little ones... The wizard felt an admiration for Professor Hagrid.

No matter how you look at it, how you think about it, the muffled sound of heavy blows in the Forbidden Forest before is not deceiving. Hagrid has the ability to suppress and even tame this terrifying giant monster alone.

"You guys are doing pretty well."

Although the transfer students still had weak legs and needed help, and were so frightened that they forgot to scream, this performance already satisfied Hagrid, and the old students' ability to stand firmly gave Hagrid a face.

Not long after the big guy was just bred, when it was first pulled out to show in front of other people, the group of magical biologists like Hagrid, some of them were even worse than this kid, and they were so scared that they sat on the ground and muttered There are quite a few people watching Merlin.

"I cultivated this when I was on a business trip last semester. I have to say that I would have a lot of inspiration when I went out more. At that time, I saw a super-giant marine creature that never existed in England. Some people call it an island whale. , So I came up with a whim, and used a newly grown female Dragon King Whale to mix and breed with Hammerhead Dragon Beast, Heshidili Black Dragon of the Ancient Dragon Period, and Phaseless Iron Goblin, and this big guy was born."

"It has the same excellent genes as the fire dragon that can quickly enter youth. It can also continuously strengthen its own scales by eating metal minerals. It can adapt to land and sea environments, but it basically has no flying ability. 30.00% of its body is made of metal, which is too heavy. Moreover, the level of innate magic power is relatively low, so you can only use the innate magic of dragon's breath."

"But you have also seen that this guy's dragon's breath is very thin and long. The farthest I have ever seen can breathe nearly [-] feet. The distance of the breath is about eight times that of the Hungarian Horntail, which is best at breathing fire. But the power Much smaller, and should be farther away as an adult."

Hagrid cheerfully introduced this big guy to the little wizards, his face full of pride.

"Don't look at how old he is now. In fact, he is still a child, so he has a bad temper and is a bit stupid. It should be that his brain is not fully developed. Now he is less than eight months old. I think it will take another half a year." He'll be in his youth, and he'll be four hundred feet long by then."

"See the bulge on his head? I think this guy should be the same as the hammerhead dragon beast. The dragon's horns will grow into a pair of hard hammer bones like battering hammers, which are used to smash mountains and rocks to eat metal ore It couldn't be more useful."

"Professor Hagrid!"

Suddenly someone in the group of young wizards shouted to Hagrid in a trembling broken voice.

"Is this really what you cultivated?"

"That's right." Hagrid patted the big guy's chin, almost knocking a big tooth out of its mouth.

"Cool!"

Just like when meeting the Hippogriff for the first time, after overcoming the fear at the first sight, people can see the different shining points of these magical creatures. There is no gorgeous fur or scales, but it is full of violence. It seems that the giant beast purely used for fighting also has its own unique charm.

The warm sunlight poured down from the sky, and the gleaming metal body reflected countless brilliant lights under the sunlight. The metal minerals eaten by this unknown monster were disorderly, which also made his black body hide The colorful colors that are hard to see can only be revealed in the sunlight.

"Then Professor Hagrid, does this big big guy have a name?"

"This." Hagrid rubbed the back of his head in distress, "The official scientific name has not been defined yet, but let's call it Iron Drake. After the book "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" is revised and published, it will have official name."

"I'm pretty much a magibiologist now."

Hagrid once again showed a silly smile with a little pride, "I need to be responsible to you, to those who like this subject, to be rigorous, yes, rigorous!"

Just when Hagrid was about to let the little wizards watch how Hagrid fed the iron drake and had a preliminary understanding of this big guy, Umbridge, who put down his quill, seemed to have written a list.

"Cough cough~"

The strange coughing sound reappeared.

"Is something wrong?" Hagrid glanced at her.

"You bred these dangerous magical creatures without the permission of the Ministry of Magic!"

Umbridge's stubby fingers pointed at Hagrid, who was more than twice as tall as him, and her tone of voice was so heroic, firm and upright.

"This has seriously violated the magical creature protection law designated by the Ministry of Magic. All private and illegal research is strictly prohibited, not to mention"

Umbridge shook the parchment in her hand, as if she had got what she wanted, or rather smoking guns.

"The Ministry of Magic has never had a registration record for this iron-clad dragon beast, and this beast is definitely no safer than any xxxxx-level dangerous creature. Its appearance has already been able to threaten the stability and order of the magic world in England!"

"I, Dolores Umbridge, Senior Inquisitor of the Ministry of Magic, issue formal notice to you, Rubeus Hagrid, Professor of the Care of Magical Creatures at Hogwarts."

"According to the Ministry of Magic's Magical Creatures Protection Act, you need to execute this illegal, evil, and dangerous magical creature within three days, and from today, you must stop all teaching activities and wait for the Ministry of Magic to punish you for seriously violating the magical creatures. All the penalties of the Biological Protection Act, including expulsion from Hogwarts, fines, and imprisonment in Azkaban."

Although most of the Ministry of Magic is no longer under Fudge's control, with those English pure-blood families standing behind him, he is not unable to do anything now.

Many internal and external channels, including the Prophet Daily, are in their hands, and they act according to the existing regulations, even if there must be a lot of private games in it, as long as they occupy the reasonable Well, Hagrid was Fudge's first stab at Hogwarts, and those people would do everything possible to complete this matter. This is a small step for them, but it is also a big step for them not to be willing to resist.

After Umbridge finished talking about these things, the atmosphere in the classroom suddenly froze. The chilly air was not at all like the temperature it should have when bathed in the sun, as if it was midwinter, with invisible ice crystals spreading in it.

Ron glanced at Hagrid. He knew that Hagrid was not good at arguing with others. The taunting of Umbridge at the beginning was actually not Hagrid's personal style. Just to remind you, Hogwarts hides a lot of old coins, so it would be easy to give Hagrid a trick quietly.

Sure enough, after hearing Umbridge's words, Hagrid's face stiffened a little, and the expression on his face also showed a bit of embarrassment. However, his teaching career for more than a year has also brought him a lot of gains. Especially in talking with people, he has benefited a lot.

This subtle expression change couldn't hide anyone, Hagrid's big face made him so eye-catching, even many little wizards saw Duan Mi, and they stared viciously at Hagrid. umbridge.

But this was useless, on the contrary, it fueled Umbridge's arrogance even more, and a mocking smile bloomed at the corner of her mouth.

"Okay." Hagrid opened his mouth. Debates are not his thing, but it's perfectly fine to say something practical. "I really haven't registered the Iron Drake with the English Ministry of Magic."

The revelation almost made Umbridge laugh.

"However, when this big guy was born, it had already completed the registration, but it was registered in other places, in the World Association for the Protection and Research of Magical Creatures. I witnessed the birth of this guy with my own eyes, and it also confirmed it for me. my own abilities.”

Hagrid's words became smoother and smoother, but Umbridge frowned slightly.

"But this is England, and you should abide by the laws of England in England! I don't care where you registered, but if you don't have it in England, it's a crime!"

"I am the teacher of the protection of magical creatures class at Hogwarts." Hagrid ignored Umbridge's interruption, and he continued to speak firmly, "But I am also a recognized master of magical creature cultivation, specializing in cross-species breeding .”

"But it's no use! No privileges! Your big beast must die, and justice will come to you, Rubeus Hagrid!"

The sneer at the corner of his mouth became more and more serious. In terms of verbal arguments, Umbridge could beat twenty Hagrids.

"And!" Hagrid, who was starting to get a little impatient again, increased his voice, "I am employed by the United World Spellcasters Association, and I have been officially authorized, and I have all the authority to independently cultivate any 'necessary' magical creatures. "

"Including this armored dragon beast!"

Umbridge, who hadn't expected that Hagrid would move out of the backer of the United World Spellcasters Association, was actually a little surprised, but the surprise in his heart would not be revealed to the outside.

"That's all?" Umbridge grinned. "This is England, not the United World Association of Spellcasters. The Ministry of Magic did not recognize this authorization, nor did it give you this authorization, so all of this is illegal."

"The notice from the Ministry of Magic will be mailed to you by owl within three hours, and your teaching will also be terminated. Wait for the trial. The Ministry of Magic will send more suitable people to teach students how to learn the correct knowledge correctly. , instead of letting you mess around."

"I am responsible for you."

Umbridge turned his head and smiled at the little wizards, making them goosebumps all over their bodies and even a little nauseous.

"That is to say, the Ministry of Magic does not recognize Professor Hagrid's self-cultivation rights granted by the World Federation of Spellcasters?"

When Umbridge was about to leave, Ron spoke slowly. He was holding the thigh of a beef cow, as if he wanted to feed the Iron Drake some food.

"Of course, this is Inge."

"Does your statement speak for yourself, or does it speak for the Minister for Magic, Cornelius Fudge?"

Seeing the meat approaching its mouth, the Iron Armored Dragon Beast opened its bloody mouth as if it wanted to eat Ron in one bite.

"boom!"

A heavy iron fist hit the steel-wrapped chin from bottom to top, and the head of the iron-clad dragon beast with half of its teeth shattered was thrown back at a dangerous 120 degrees. The beast was not dizzy, but after being bombarded by a huge force, its brain was buzzing, and the arrogance disappeared in an instant, and a look of fear was revealed in the eyes that were the size of car tires.

"You can think carefully before answering. I'll give you ten seconds to think about it."

Ron patted the big face of the armored dragon beast. I don't know if the trembling monster was in pain or frightened. It folded its limbs and lay on the spot like an obedient dog. The growth, or metal from elsewhere, is being moved here by it to fill the gap of the missing tooth.

Throwing the beef cow in his hand into the mouth of the armored dragon beast, Ron, who wiped off the blood stains on his hands, turned around slowly. The special colored contact lenses made by Kassel College in his left eye could no longer cover the golden and red light in his eyes, even if it was just The slight power that leaked was also dozens of times stronger than that huge iron-clad dragon beast.

The air between him and Umbridge was completely frozen, and it seemed that it took more effort to blink his eyelids.

"Time is up, what's your answer? Senior investigator."

"Of course I am." Umbridge swallowed with some difficulty, wondering if a fly had stuck her throat, her voice changed a bit, it was no longer the delicate and thin voice before.

"I am a senior investigator of the Ministry of Magic, you can't use force against me, I. You. Me."

"What about your answer? I don't want to ask a third time."

The calm words seemed to add to the invisible pressure again. It was clear that Ron did not move, but in Umbridge's eyes, the darkening sky seemed to be covered by a giant, and the growing shadow was caused by the giant stepping on it. The soles of her feet will crush her to pieces.

"Of course!"

Umbridge, who couldn't hold back his emotions, screamed, "Even if Minister Fudge is here, it will definitely be"

"Fudge doesn't plan to let England join the United World Association of Spellcasters, right? No wonder he didn't attend a single public meeting. He wants to lead England to do it alone, right?"

"If you don't participate in the crusade in the abyss, if you don't participate in the opening of the new world, you don't need to recognize the award granted by the World Federation of Spellcasters."

Ron's piercing smile made Umbridge shudder instantly!

She has to admit it!Even if Fudge doesn't admit it, then she must not say anything that doesn't admit it from her mouth!
As long as she dares to say these words, Fudge will abandon her 100% directly, and those pure-blood families will also abandon her in an instant!
The benefits that the new world can bring are the benefits that can drive everyone crazy. If they are excluded, Umbridge can fully see the future picture of not being able to make it out of Hogwarts alive.

This is a battle of interests that is a hundred times more sinister and dangerous than the power struggle in the Ministry of Magic. Even if they lose all their status and wealth in England, those pure-blood families will never let themselves get out of the first train to the new world Door.

Impossible to step even one toe out!

The struggle for power in the Ministry of Magic is actually more about fighting for a better position on this new world train.

"The Ministry of Magic recognizes the authorization of the World Federation of Spellcasters to Professor Hagrid."

Umbridge, whose face was a little pale, spoke with difficulty.

"It was me before. I didn't think carefully and brought trouble to Professor Hagrid."

She squeezed out an ugly smile, walked away quickly with hurried steps, without looking back.

But after the chunky pink figure moved away, a burst of cheers warmed up the atmosphere that had dropped to freezing point before. The sky was still clear and bright, and the warm sunlight shone on the vibrant green grass.

"Does anyone want to feed it? You see, after being educated by Ron, how good this silly boy is. I really beat him too lightly before."

Hagrid patted the big face of the iron-clad dragon with a dog-licking smile. This big guy even learned to roll and act cute without a teacher, crushing a large piece of flat land.

"I come!"

"And I!"

After discovering that this vicious big guy was really turned into a dog with one punch, even those transfer students who saw this big battle for the first time couldn't help but be moved by the atmosphere. , They also saw the colorful hidden in the black body.
