I, Hogwarts Second Week

Chapter 346 The first contact with the gods - all actions are righteous

After calming down his son.

Mrs. Titan then looked tiredly at Owen and everyone again.

"But the giants from other tribes don't understand this. In their world, only wizards can release magic. They will only see us defeated. This is an indisputable fact."

"Tsk—" Owen smacked his mouth. His eyes couldn't help but glance at the black-skinned giant over there.

Indeed, he could not expect those uncivilized barbaric giants to understand what magic blessing was.

The more you explain, the more they'll think you're talking nonsense and trying to deny their power.

Then cause even greater chaos.

Well - it's no wonder that Hagrid and Madame Maxime's search for an alliance with giants in the original book ended in failure.

The interior of the giant clan is really chaotic.

There are more than a dozen tribes, large and small, and no one can convince anyone. Some tribes may even have accepted gifts from the Death Eaters and agreed to form an alliance with them.

The British giant in front of him probably accepted the gift from the Death Eaters, but he might not have agreed to an alliance.

Of course, although the Titan Lady in front of her looks old and decayed, she is still very ambitious at heart. Her son is a Cyclops, the most powerful individual among the giants. Owen guessed that her previous plan should be After accepting their material support and stabilizing the tribe, they launched a unification war against other giant tribes.

I believe that with the strength of the Cyclops, it should not be difficult to do this.

But today, a black-haired giant suddenly appeared and defeated his son in front of everyone, which made her lose her confidence.

As she said herself, she knew that the black-haired giant used magic.

But war is not just a game, victory is the greatest achievement, and the means are not important to the giant.

Do other giant tribes possess magic items like that?

Are they more powerful?

These questions that she had never thought about before were now all before her.

The situation suddenly returned to the beginning. All original plans and plans had to be suspended, and everything changed quietly.

Faced with such a complicated situation, what can the wizard, as an outsider, do?

"Isn't there a permanent solution? A way to make all the giant tribes obey orders?"

"have!"

"Huh?" Owen was startled, "Really? I'll just say it casually."

"Legend has it that the Giant King possesses a crown called the 'Crown of Destiny', which has the power to control giants. Only the most powerful giants are qualified to wear it.

Hundreds of years ago, the war between giants and wizards was at a disadvantage. The giant king at that time returned to Sicily to find the original giants, the power of the ancient Greek gods. "

"."

Owen rolled his eyes.

be cheated!

I didn’t expect that! did not expect! He actually lost to a female giant in a trick.

This guy is really good at playing politics.

The story told by the giantess - this is like a wholesale story, does Owen believe it?

As believed!

If he believes it! Then he had to agree to the female giant to find the so-called 'Crown of Destiny', and then help them to complete the great cause of unifying the giant race.

If he didn't believe it, then their alliance plan would be completely ruined. Of course, these British giants would not break up with them, but they would definitely not be able to count on their help.

This giantess, who looked at her old body and smelled of decay, could just maintain the status quo with their help, and then continue to accumulate strength.

In short, whether he helps or not, she will not lose.

Even if Owen and the others turn around and leave without giving them anything, at least just now, he has helped these British giants resolve a crisis, right?

Fuck - when I think about it, all my plans have been clearly planned by others.

No matter what, she won't suffer.

This intelligence is simply terrifying!

In a daze, Owen even felt that the person standing in front of him was not a giantess, but Dumbledore, the old fox.

No wonder she made it clear from the beginning that she knew Dumbledore. It turned out to be an intellectual acquaintance, right?

"Stop - just tell me, where was that thing lost?" Owen's eyes were solemn, and his head that was too lazy to turn finally started to work again.

Originally, he thought that when he came to this wilderness, he could throw his head away and have fun for two days.

Now it seems - I really need to carry my brain with me all the time.

It's true - I hate asking and bargaining with these intelligent guys.

Owen misses Justin now.

As for Mrs. Titan, she was stunned for a moment by Owen's straightforward response, and immediately understood that the child had noticed her plan.

This surprised her a little. How old was the child in front of her?

According to the usual practice, she should first tell a history of giants, then accept the giant king and the magnificent war, wait until the other party is completely attracted by her story, and then make a request, asking the other party to find the temporary giant treasure.

Everything falls into place!

But now - now that Owen has understood everything, there is no need for her to beat around the bush.

"Yeah - in the maelstrom." She said bluntly.

"Maelstrom? Obelisk?" Owen said, "The vortex with the obelisk?"

"Obelisk?" Mrs. Titan concentrated slightly, "There was such a legend in the past."

"Tsk—it seems like I really have to go."

Another incident that points to the maelstrom.

Owen clicked his tongue. He must be looking for the 'Crown of Destiny' with him. After all, a crown that can control giants sounds outrageous.

Although the insidious female giant in front of him said in the preface just now that only the most powerful giant can wear it, it is pure stupidity for him to believe half a word of this nonsense.

When he really gets the 'Crown of Destiny', he will have to decide who is the strongest giant.

As for the Divine Grant Tower in the maelstrom.

Yes - now Owen is very convinced that the so-called obelisk must be the Tower of Divine Grant.

As the brightest star in the Age of Gods, it is absolutely normal for the Divine Grant Tower to appear in the Mediterranean region.

In the past year, Italian magic newspapers have repeatedly reported that the sudden expansion of the maelstrom has revealed ancient ruins.

This all shows that something happened there.

In addition, Voldemort, who may have cooperated with foreign gods, has been resurrected.

The two things coincide very well in time.

He didn't think this was a coincidence. The Outer God was definitely doing something, and the Death Eaters would be their guides.

He had to visit the Maelstrom anyway.

"Okay, we have reached a verbal agreement." Owen shook his head and said indifferently.

And his choice of words is also very particular. Oral agreements - aren't they meant to be deceived and torn up?

"Now - let's ask the big guy where his magic bracelet came from."

Owen withdrew his gaze and walked towards the small slope.

Mrs. Titan nodded and followed with her old body.

From one slope to two smaller slopes.

Surrounded by a group of giants.

They are all giants of the Volcano tribe.

Unlike the British giant warriors who wore armor, they wore more leather armor, simple leather armor strung together with beast skins, with gushing volcanoes painted on their chests with carbon stone.

Most of them have black hair.

Among the giants, except for the leader of the Volcano Tribe, there is only one female giant.

Thinking about it, she should be Achilleus Titan's wife.

This giantess is quite young, only about twenty feet tall, just over half the height of Achilleus Titan.

She has long, loose silver hair, which is unique among giants. She has soft facial features, a well-proportioned figure, and large areas of delicate skin exposed. She even went topless.

Only a simple leather skirt was tied around her waist.

Two smooth and tender long white legs were exposed.

Well - judging from her appearance, she is very much in line with human aesthetics.

Even though she was big - she was like some beautiful human girl who had grown to twenty feet tall.

At this time, Achilles Titan, who had fainted, was lying in her arms. Enjoying the blessings of being together.

Of course - the reason why Owen gave her so much sight was not the naked upper body - his focus was mainly on the giantess's eyes.

A pair of scarlet eyes, like rubies.

Paired with her silver hair, which is almost the same color as her own.

It is impossible to say that Irving does not have a sense of déjà vu.

"Tsk—" Owen shifted his gaze and focused on the female leader of the Volcano Tribe.

It was a giantess who was also very old. Her face was full of wrinkles, her back was deeply bent, and the muscles on her body were shrinking, which made her look much shorter. Although there was plenty of sunshine in the morning, But her body was still shaking uncontrollably, and the cold came from inside her.

Maybe it's not the cold, but the fear of death.

She was the only giant among the group who wore a complete garment, a deep black robe.

The robe is painted with countless meteors bombarding the planet.

That kind of scene only reminds Owen of the original origin of magic, a meteor falling into the earth.

On the other hand, it is also a sign of ancient magic.

Hanging upside down, the painting looks like some kind of volcanic eruption.

It can be said that one painting has many meanings.

"The robe you are wearing is very beautiful! When did those wizards give it to you?"

Owen's neutral voice is clear and tactful, and it's hard for you to hear his emotions just from his tone of voice.

He was waiting for a giant from the Volcano Tribe who knew English to translate his words to the female leader in front of him.

"Human, Ego Titan has chosen you. But the Volcano Tribe will still not be controlled by you.

A giant would never become a wizard's slave. "

Unexpectedly, the giantess opened her mouth and spoke a very pure English.

This surprised Owen, who almost thought she had studied in Cambridge.

And the name she spit out was Egg Titan. It should be the name of the Titan lady next to me.

"According to the giant tradition, the winner has absolute control over the loser." Owen continued, "Strictly speaking, including you, the entire Volcano Tribe is now my property.

Of course, I'm not that interested in ruling a tribe of giants. You only need to leave the magic bracelet on your son's hand and the giantess, and you can leave here.

I don't think you are willing to deviate from the giant's tradition! "

"Huh?" Owen's words immediately aroused the vigilance of Egg Titan beside him. She did not expect that Owen would know so much about the traditions of giants.

Yes, the world of giants is very barbaric, and of course she will definitely not abide by this so-called tradition, but the Volcano Tribe - they are the most traditional group of giants, they will definitely abide by the tradition.

Hagrid and Mrs. Maxim's attention was entirely focused on another aspect. When they heard that Owen's request included the giantess, their expressions suddenly changed.

Especially Madame Maxime.

She glanced at the beautiful giantess, and her face suddenly became ugly.

It was she who told Owen about the giant tradition.

As a result, after only one day, he spent it having fun!

What does he want to do?

That giantess, she looks like she's still underage!

This kid!

There was a red glow on Mrs. Maxim's fair face, which was caused by the anger being stirred up and suppressed, resulting in residual warmth.

This may have something to do with her family of origin, unlike Hagrid, who was the father forced by his mother.

Madame Maxime's parents seemed to be just the other way around.

Although human beings are free, this kind of coercion is despicable anyway.

The female leader of the Volcano Tribe seemed to have aged by more than ten years in an instant, and her face was like the ravines of mountains and rivers, and it stretched a little further.

Her earth-yellow eyes were mixed with a hint of helplessness and resentment, and her dry lips trembled slightly, as if she wanted to say something.

But she didn't say this in the end, and she just sighed and said, "Amin can give it to you, but I can't give it to you."

Her eyes turned to her son, and then there was determination on her face.

Others don't know it, but she knows very well that all her authority comes from that magic bracelet.

Without it, you will be challenged by other warriors on the day you return to the tribe. If you lose, being kicked out of the tribe is considered a minor matter.

Think about how you dealt with previous challengers?

"Tsk—" Owen pulled out his wand with a contemptuous smile on his face, "Don't get me wrong, I'm not negotiating with you again."

He said. "Hand over the magic bracelet and you can live or die!"

The boy spread his hands and said in a gentle tone with a hint of temptation, "I personally hope you choose the second option, because then I don't have to let the tiger go back to the mountain."

"Of course, you can also choose to resist. I like to see people resist, because killing makes sense in this way. Otherwise, wouldn't it be just shooting at a wooden stake?"

It's hard to believe how a boy of fifteen or sixteen could say such evil words in a gentle tone.

But what could be seen was the giant leader. Her demeanor suddenly changed, and the helplessness in her eyes disappeared, replaced by anger, as if someone was whispering in her ear and tempting her to go to war with Owen.

"Huh?" Owen's eyes shifted to the giantess named Amin again.

The principle of cause and effect in ancient magic told him that just now, an evil magic power was like a pebble thrown into a calm lake, picking up ripples.

The ripples covered the giantess leader and all the volcano giants present.

Owen immediately raised his wand and pointed it at her, "Weird guy."

Weird—but not weird.

Dean Brigid told him that any life that is bewitched by external gods will fall into madness. Such wizards can be easily distinguished from the crowd.

But Koyatel said that although the outside gods would torture her, most of the time she kept her sanity. There was a voice in her head, like tinnitus, but most of the time this voice was a temptation, tempting you to do something you didn't want. Something you are willing to do.

Two different truths - of course Irving would choose Coyatl's story.

Because he had long discovered that the confrontation between the heir and the outer gods was spiraling, and both sides were changing their strategies. What Dean Bridgerton said was the rules of confrontation hundreds of years ago, which have long since changed.

The Outer Gods know better how to hide their own families, instead of stupidly selecting the most powerful dark wizards and controlling them to assassinate the heir like they did in the past.

"No - don't - do it."

The wand in Owen's hand lit up with a pale green light.

Then, a stuttering voice with a strange German emphasis sounded.

It's Achilles Titan.

He woke up.

Gee - what a terrifying resilience.

Under such a heavy blow, if the same proportion of reduction was applied to the wizard's body, he would have to lie in the hospital for a week even if he did not die.

He was only unconscious for ten minutes

"No - don't kill her." Achilleus Titan said in rudimentary English, then reluctantly stood up and stood in front of the giantess.

The main theme is deep love and righteousness.

"The magic is here for you, Amin." He spat out the words one by one as if spitting out potatoes.

Owen won't mention how many grammatical errors there are in his sentence.

It was impossible for him to agree to this request alone.

Look at this silly kid - do you think you are in a relationship with a sixteen or seventeen year old girl?

It's a pity that that body may contain a soul that is two to three thousand years old.

But before he could wait, Owen said that the flower girl should stay too, and his mother beside him let out an angry roar, as if he was scolding him.

Then the mother and son started arguing, using the words of the giant, but Owen didn't understand a word of it anyway.

And what about Amin - she stared at Owen from beginning to end.

He kept looking at him up and down, as if he was looking at some beautiful jade and gold objects.

From time to time, a mysterious smile would appear at the corner of his mouth, with three parts provocation, three parts teasing, three parts leisurely contentment, and the remaining one part, divided into four equal parts, which was excitement, surprise, satisfaction, and something Owen could not understand. fan chart.

"Owen!" At this time, Mrs. Maxim couldn't stand it anymore.

She stepped forward and asked him angrily, "I thought you were an infatuated person who could go on forever with that Gryffindor girl. Now it seems that people can make mistakes sometimes. .

how? If you fall in love with a pretty girl, will you turn into a robber and steal her love? "

"???"

Owen, who was thinking about what spell to use to kill the silver-haired giantess, raised his head blankly.

What, what, what!

What are you talking about!

He squinted his eyes and scratched his head. It was obvious that Madame Maxime mistook him for some Alexandre Dumas.

Knock - what weird thoughts are you having at this time?

Although I admit that my XP is not very normal, it is also for human beings.

Giant or something.

It's too sinful. The physical difference is so huge. Anyway, Owen can't figure out how those wizards drive - how can your toy car touch the rock wall when passing through the tunnel.

It is estimated that the gates were intact when they rampaged through the toll booths.

"Professor, what are you thinking about?" Owen said angrily. My beautiful Miss Granger is not as good as a large savage.

Do you look down on me, or do you have something wrong with your aesthetics?

Oh - I forgot, the Madame Maxime in front of me is a mixed-race giant, maybe their aesthetics are indeed different.

"Is it possible, Professor, that I like girls about the same size as me?"

"Huh? What do you mean?" Mrs. Maxim's eyes narrowed, "Are you discriminating against tall women?"

"."

"6!" Owen gave a thumbs up and then shut his mouth. If he continued to speak, he felt like he would be expelled from Harry Potter.

From now on, I can only hang out with the Death Eaters.

From the side, Hagrid walked up quickly, his face was full of embarrassment.

After glaring at Owen, he began to comfort Mrs. Maxim.

He knew that bad boy very well. The way he looked at the giantess was not a look of liking at all, but a look of liking to eat.

In the Forbidden Forest, he used this look all day long to stare at anything that could move in the mountains, in the lake, in the sky, or on the ground. Even the Acromantula had been roasted by him. How could Hagrid do this? Don’t you recognize that look?

The sudden own goal interrupted the atmosphere that Irving had painstakingly created.

The volcano giants began to quarrel.

They made rumbling noises and spoke words that the wizard could not understand at all.

Seeing this, Owen stopped participating. Let's make a fuss. Enough is enough. I'm talking to the strongest.

Owen returned to the lakeside and set up a chair to drink tea and watch the show.

On the side of the Volcano Tribe, the quarrel quickly turned into a fight.

This is the case with giants. Their strongest warrior is created by fighting, and the mother of that strongest warrior will automatically become the leader of the tribe.

If the mother is absent, then the leadership position will fall on his other maternal relatives, which in short have nothing to do with men.

At this time, according to their tradition, the giants believed that the woman who could give birth to the strongest warrior should be the leader.

"Huh!" Owen blew the hot air away from the tea cup.

The battle over there was a little beyond his expectation. First of all, he didn't expect the battle to last so long, lasting more than an hour. Secondly, Achilles Titan could actually use it without using it in his dizzy state. Magic beat all the other giants in the tribe again.

For the wizard, it is not an exaggeration to call such a feat superhuman.

But for giants.

Especially the English giant Lopus Titan, the Cyclops. He was the loudest giant outside the volcano tribe present.

Obviously, he had seen that the tall man could defeat him only through external force. In this battle just now, this guy was no match for him at all.

That's why he was so angry, so angry.

However, Owen, who was watching the show, noticed that Lopus Titan had his eyes on the silver-haired giant Amin from the beginning to the end. This guy must have fallen in love with his wife and had the legacy of Wei Wu.

I don't know how much of his anger stems from his own failure, and how much of it stems from his desire to transform into a lower-body war god.

"Owen!" Mrs. Maxim came over.

She still seems to have some grudge against Owen.

"Now that we have won the respect of the two giant tribes, I am thinking, if you can get Acreu's magic bracelet, and then give him to Lops and let him challenge other giant tribes, our mission may be It’s much smoother.”

"It will go smoothly, but there may be some trouble in the future——"

It is not a good thing for wizards to have a dominant clan.

Especially British wizards.

As a veteran imperialist, offshore balancer, and world troublemaker, the British's deep-rooted racial skill is to drive away tigers and devour wolves. They never want to see the giants unify.

"But it's none of my business! These will be things that Miss Granger will have to consider in the future."

Irving, who just wants to go home quickly and give him a hug, doesn't care about the long-term perspective.

He stood up directly and walked to the Volcano Tribe in a few steps.

"Finished?"

His voice was not loud, and there was a hint of joking in it.

It's like people watching a cricket fight, looking at the strongest cricket.

"I cannot agree to your request, my son-" the giantess pondered. He looked at his son with eyes full of blame.

"I understand, as the saying goes, it's hard for a hero to be a beauty!" Owen said looking very kind.

However, the female giant did not show a relieved smile. Her earth-yellow eyes seemed to be covered by wind and sand. The moment the storm weakened, there was a fear revealed.

The fear did not come from Owen, but from the silver-haired giantess.

"?" If it were an ordinary wizard, it would be difficult for Owen to detect the change in his eyes at this moment, but this is a giant, and her eyes are like light bulbs. Unless he is blind, how could he not see it?

"Tsk——"

A descendant of an alien god?

From this point of view, these giants from the volcano tribe should have been bewitched by outside gods to come here.

That magic bracelet should also be a gift from an outside god.

What is the purpose?

You can't just watch the fun!

Is it for him?

Owen thought for a moment, his emerald green eyes a little evil.

Probably not. He had been here less than two days. The Outer God was just a powerful wizard. Although he might be as powerful as a supermodel, he was not omniscient and omnipotent. Otherwise, the heir would not need to fight against him.

Therefore, it should be something that the British giant tribe only wants.

Thinking in his mind, Owen turned to look at the tent. The causal principle of ancient magic told him that there was no magic fluctuation in the entire British Giant's camp, and there were no magic items here.

The only things that can be called precious are the rare and rare ones.

Lops Titan?

The Cyclops has not been born for hundreds of years, so he is indeed precious.

Apart from this, Owen really couldn't think of anything else that would be worthy of the Outer God's attention for these desolate giants who couldn't even put together a few pieces of clothing.

"Are you here for Lopus Titan?" Owen said bluntly to the giantess Amin who was hiding behind Acreau.

It's just that they all belong to the Outer Gods. No matter how powerful they are, they are only at the level of Koatl, so he doesn't take them seriously.

Upon hearing Owen's question, the giantess named Amin suddenly smiled.

The silver hair is like a waterfall hanging on the back of the head, and the broken hair on the forehead is like the base of a calla lily, and the broken hair outlines a heart shape.

"So smart." A gentle voice sounded.

The giant female named Amin suddenly stuck her head out and smiled gracefully at him.

"First meeting with the successor. The Supreme Will greets you."

She broke free from Acreau's hand and walked out from behind him.

“What a coincidence,” she said, “I didn’t expect to meet my contemporary successor here.

Uh-huh - luckily I prepared a gift, otherwise it would have seemed too raw. "Pure English, with a Greek accent.

the giantess said enthusiastically.

Her voice immediately attracted the attention of the other giants. Acreau's stupid mind couldn't understand it, and his face was full of confusion.

The giantess leader had a look of horror on her face, her old head hanging slightly.

"Raw? It'll be cooked quickly." Owen smiled coldly. Then he pulled out the wand as fast as lightning

"Original Earth Flame!"

The next second, the reddish magic spell released some kind of ionic terrifying energy.

He arrived in front of the giantess almost as soon as she shut up.

"boom!"

Like an exploding watermelon, the high temperature probably evaporated the brain fluid, and the steam burst the brain.

The yellow and red ones were scattered all over the floor.

The neck, burned by the high temperature, was still bleeding.

The air was filled with the smell of roasted meat.

Pungent and somewhat cursed. A cloud of mist gradually rose from the giantess who fell to the ground into a corpse, mutating into various spore-like plants in the air.

"Roar!!!"

Acreau's eyes turned red instantly, and the nearly forty-foot giant roared like thunder, and slammed its bulging muscles towards Owen.

"Avada——"

The dark green light suddenly brightened for an instant, as if the rays of sunlight were outstripping it.

"Demand for life!!!"

The God of Death raised his scythe high, and silently cut off Acreau's soul with a swipe of the sword.

There was another "boom", and another giant fell to the ground.

Owen sneered and looked at the headless body of the giant Amin, "Isn't this already familiar?"

Then he waved his wand again.

The blazing flames, like a tornado, directly ignited Amin's body and the mist in the air that looked like spores gathering together.

The raging fire burned fiercely, illuminating Owen's gloomy and uncertain face red.

Along with the burning is the anger of the giants of the volcano tribe.

"What have you done!" The female giant leader wailed, and behind her, the tall giant warriors could no longer hold back and pounced on them one by one like hungry wolves.

Another green light.

Another life embraces death.

Death smiled.

He stared at the remaining giants indifferently.

It seems to say, who wants to be next.

Anger was suppressed by fear, and all the giants stopped.

They were stunned, staring at Owen as if they were looking at a god.

"I don't need to explain it to you."

He raised his head, the violent factor in his eyes beating wildly.

"Owen!" It was Madame Maxime's voice. She was frightened and froze for a moment, which led to tragedy.

"I don't need to explain it to you." Owen calmly turned around and said, "Professor."
