I abducted HP's friend on his wedding day

Chapter 117 The eight-eyed giant spider suffered a devastating disaster

Hagrid was probably the first to discover the changes in the Forbidden Forest, and then he almost fainted from tears in front of Dumbledore.

Only then did Dumbledore know that Hagrid actually raised an Acromantula in the Forbidden Forest! ! !

That's the Acromantula! Not some kitten or puppy! It's the Acromantula!

Dumbledore was extremely angry, but Hagrid cried like a child. He cried so loudly that it covered up the roar of Professor McGonagall next to him. Dumbledore couldn't say anything, but kept silent to himself. The moment a spell was cast and the world quieted down, Dumbledore held up the hot tea with a soothing expression, showing an expression of enjoyment.

Only Professor McGonagall could not restrain herself from roaring at Hagrid despite the bursts of darkness.

Her scolding and Hagrid's crying created a lively atmosphere in the principal's office. It only took a moment to scare away many of the former principals in the portrait. This was the second time!

For the second time, they were forced to leave the principal's office collectively! ! !

It wasn't until Professor McGonagall closed her mouth and was panting on the side that Dumbledore silently lifted the spell.

Sure enough, apart from Hagrid's muffled cries, it was tolerable.

"I understand what you mean, Hagrid."

Hagrid cried until he hiccupped and looked at Dumbledore with teary eyes.

"A group of snakes attacked your captive spiders, right?"

Professor McGonagall added hoarsely: "Acromantula!!!"

"Is it headed by a very huge snake? It seems to have magic power and can kill all your spiders?"

Professor McGonagall shouted angrily: "Acromantula!!!"

"So do you know what species that snake is?"

Hagrid cried and shook his head: "I only know that all the creatures in the Forbidden Forest are afraid of it."

"What a pity. The main reason is that if the snake is also a creature of the Forbidden Forest, the spider is on the snake's diet, right? We can't interfere with this normal hunting behavior. Many creatures in the Forbidden Forest are like this. The weak eat the strong, you have to understand.”

Dumbledore was actually very lucky that all Hagrid's spiders had been hunted. That was a good thing, a good thing for him, a good thing for Hogwarts, and even a lucky thing for Hagrid. .

"It is a normal law of nature for snakes to eat spiders."

But Hagrid did not agree with this statement: "For so many years, even if there are such powerful snakes in the Forbidden Forest, Aragog has never eaten Aragog. It has been living happily in the Forbidden Forest. No other creature has ever been so harmful. Pass their family. Why did a snake suddenly attack poor Aragog?"

Even knowing about Hagrid's little problems, Dumbledore still felt a little heartbroken at this moment.

He missed his other student, the shy and introverted student who also loved magical animals. Oh~ why couldn't Hagrid learn from his senior student, who would not ignore dangerous animals even if he loved all kinds of magical animals? The creature is kept in the woods next to his alma mater?

Is this difficult?

Is this difficult to do? !

Dumbledore took a deep breath to keep himself calm.

"Hagrid, I'm sorry, I feel so sorry for your spider."

Professor McGonagall said in a daze: "That's the Acromantula!"

"But it is reasonable for snakes to eat spiders. How can you blame a snake that only hunts for food? Besides..." Dumbledore sighed. "That's the basilisk left by Salazar Slytherin! It was one of the four founders and was left as a guard at Hogwarts. I can't let it suddenly leave the castle and go to the Forbidden Forest to catch your spider. Eat it and blame it.”

Professor McGonagall looked at Dumbledore in a daze: "What Slytherin? What did you just say? Albus, I seem to have heard a rarer, more dangerous one, considered extremely dangerous by the Ministry of Magic. The name of the creature?”

Dumbledore said calmly: "Yes, that is Salazar Slytherin's pet, a basilisk."

Then he tried to explain to Mag in a brisk tone: "Its name is Herbo, a basilisk that has lived for a thousand years."

Professor McGonagall was feeling dizzy. She leaned against the wall to keep herself calm.

"Do you know what the basilisk represents?"

"Of course." Dumbledore said nonchalantly. "But it comes from Slytherin, Salazar Slytherin, and belongs to Hogwarts. It is a rare creature in our school. It can be said to be quite rare."

Hagrid didn't know when he stopped crying. His eyes widened and his mouth opened with an expression of disbelief.

Basilisks require dark wizards to deliver magic power for cultivation, so it is difficult to hatch them successfully, and they are quite delicate. Moreover, because they only obey the instructions of Parseltongue wizards, after most of the wizards were cultivated, because they did not understand the language of snakes, they did not know how to serve these snake masters. Either the snake masters performed a whimpering drama, or the wizards were killed by the snake masters. Arrange for a woo-hoo scene. In short, there have been many overturns, and the wizard has not seen these uncles in four or five hundred years.

Now if you tell others that there are living basilisks, haha, the Ministry of Magic's department responsible for magical animals will just roll their eyes and tell you not to daydream.

Hagrid asked tremblingly: "Professor...basilisk? Did you see it wrong?"

Dumbledore replied with great sadness: "That's right, Hagrid. I'm pretty sure it's the basilisk in the Chamber of Secrets. It went to the Forbidden Forest. I think that's because it could come in and out of Hogwarts at will." , so it can go to the Forbidden Forest.”

"But, my Aragog..."

"The Acromantula is the food of the basilisk. It's in its diet. And I know from the Sorting Hat that Helbo spends most of his time sleeping in the secret room. When he wakes up, the house elves will feed the lambs. Ah, little pig, wait for the food."

Under Professor McGonagall's shocked eyes and Hagrid's watery gaze, Dumbledore made up things that he didn't even believe.

"It's a pity that after Haierbo woke up this time, the house elves didn't find it in time, so Haierbo followed the previous example and ran to the Forbidden Forest to hunt for food by himself. Unexpectedly, it found the one you raised first. Those spiders."

"But..." Hagrid tried to say something.

Dumbledore continued quickly: "Perhaps it is also because your spider is a new resident of the Forbidden Forest. It has never seen it before, so it just got a taste of it and accidentally ate all your spiders."

Hagrid said aggrievedly: "They didn't eat everything. Most of them were petrified and then died. Professor Dumbledore..."

"Oh, that's it. It might just be...it's just that it doesn't know your spider. You see, the other creatures in the Forbidden Forest don't seem to have any serious problems. It's probably just interested in your spider. If you're not careful, there will be more. I took a few glances," Dumbledore said shamelessly. "You know, the basilisk's eyes are very special. Any life they see will be killed."

Hagrid began to moan and cry.

The corners of McGonagall's mouth twitched, and her eyes looked at Dumbledore full of accusations.

"That's a basilisk! Do you want to allow it to roam freely in the Forbidden Forest? What should the students do?"

Dumbledore smiled and said: "Students are not allowed in the Forbidden Forest."

Professor McGonagall snorted: "Do you think all your students are such obedient students?"

The Sorting Hat finally couldn't help but intervene: "Helbo will not harm the students of Hogwarts! It has a contract with Hogwarts! As long as those students do not take the initiative to attack Halbo, Halbo will actively avoid students and professors. !”

Dumbledore then spread his hands, shrugged, and pointed at the Sorting Hat.

"See, you heard it too."

But how could Professor McGonagall be so relieved: "So, Albus, how do you explain the student who had an accident in the bathroom?"

Dumbledore was silent.

Only the Sorting Hat tried to explain: "That can't be entirely blamed on Halpo. It met Riddle!!! Basilisks all listen to Parseltongue! If Halpo hadn't always liked Salazar the most, he liked it so much, Riddle Maybe he would take Haierbo away! He also tried to do this, but Haierbo was unwilling to leave Hogwarts! After all..."

The Sorting Hat sounded a little lonely.

"Before Salazar left, Helbo's last order was that it should never leave Hogwarts..."

"It was just listening to Salazar all the time."
