HP sea mermaid

Chapter 27: Eggs

"Is this a dragon? Does it have the nerve?!" Triton pointed at the three dragons restrained by dozens of wizards with spells, and cried out in disbelief.

Harry hurriedly followed Triton's hand

He covered his mouth, but fortunately, Triton didn't make a loud voice. The three fire dragons in front were making a fuss, and the two half-giants didn't notice the small movement here. "Triton, calm down!"

Triton moved away Harry's hand angrily, and glared at the large lizards angrily—he said, how could an unexpected visitor enter Hogwarts!It turned out to be the so-called western dragon!I'm also ashamed to call it a dragon!

"Hi! Hagrid—" A red-haired wizard came wearily shuffling over, "Oh, you still have this..."

"Hey, Charlie! It's okay, Olim won't say anything." Hagrid stared at the dragons fascinatedly, ignoring Mrs. Maxim who was standing behind him with a pale face, and stood behind him with some fear. Taking two steps forward, "They are really energetic, aren't they?"

"Come on, Hagrid!" Charlie Weasley rolled his eyes quietly, and brought a Headmaster Beauxbaton, didn't all the warriors of Beauxbaton know?But cheating has always been a tradition in the Triwizard Tournament, and Ron should have told Harry, and Hogwarts knew it would be even. “[This is the Hungarian Horntail—the silver-blue one is the Swedish Brachysaurus—the red one is the Chinese Fireball.]”

As soon as he heard "China", Harry twitched his eyebrows, and quickly installed an anti-eavesdropping sound barrier—as expected, the second after the sound barrier was set up, Triton screamed angrily: "Chinese Fireball Dragon ?He actually said that this thing is called Chinese Fireball Dragon? I heard it right! It has the nerve to name it after China! Has the naming fee been paid? Authorized? Registered? Or did I hear him wrong? 'Chinese dragon fruit'?"

"'Fireball is the only fire dragon in the East, and its appearance is particularly striking. Its smooth scales are scarlet, and it has a snub nose on its face, a ring of golden tassel-like spikes around its nose, and bulging eyes. When provoked, it can eject mushroom-shaped fireballs from its nostrils, hence the name. It weighs between two tons and four tons, and the body of the male fireball is larger than that of the female fireball. The eggs of the fireball are bright crimson, with Flecked with gold, the eggshell is prized and widely used in Chinese witchcraft circles. Fireball is aggressive by nature, but it is more tolerant of its own kind than most dragons, and is sometimes even willing to share a piece with one or two other dragons Most mammals are a delicacy for Fireball, but it also prefers to eat pigs and people.'" Draco's eyes were shining, and he wrote down the description of "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" about the Chinese Fireball Dragon. Read it out, "So many eggs...they are brooding female dragons—"

"In other words, these dragons are more ferocious than ordinary dragons..." Cedric said with difficulty, his voice tight.

"Our Chinese dragons are strong and vigorous. They fly through the clouds and call the wind and rain. Each of them is more capable than these big lizards. These guys dare to call themselves dragons—wait a minute," Triton was almost jumping angrily at first, but he suddenly remembered something. ——He is speaking English now, that is to say, although "Dragon" is a dragon, it does not actually refer to an oriental dragon——He suddenly calmed down, it should be that these ugly lizards are the most powerful creatures in foreign countries, so translate At that time, it was also translated as "dragon" because it resembled a Chinese dragon. "It turned out to be a cottage, hmph."

Harry heaved a sigh of relief. Although he didn't know what Triton was angry with just now, it's good not to be angry now. Seeing Hagrid's appearance of being completely obsessed with these powerful creatures, he knew that he had forgotten that he was still there. Things, seeing that it is getting late, so I suggest that everyone go back to the castle.

Everyone was silent along the way, each thinking about how to deal with this dragon, or a female dragon brooding on eggs...

When they arrived in the hall, they wanted to say goodbye, but they looked at each other with nervous and blank expressions, and suddenly laughed.

"I won't be able to fall asleep anyway, why don't we discuss it in the classroom?" Cedric suggested.

They camouflaged the windows so that it still looked dark from the outside, and only then lit an oil lamp that had been left here.

"Dragon..." Cedric sighed deeply.

Triton raised his eyebrows, and raised his hand to hold it down. "What are the weaknesses of these dragons? No, no, no, we must first figure out what we are going to do. It is impossible for them to let warriors slay dragons."

"Impossible." Draco said firmly, "Dragon is a dangerous level 5A magical creature, and the number of dragons in the wizarding world is rare, so it is impossible to bring out three dragons so that we can slaughter them—of course, it is us Whether the dragon kills us or the dragon kills us is another matter, and they are still egg-bearing female dragons..."

"The dragons in the Forbidden Forest were going crazy just now, and it took nearly ten people to control them. It is obviously impossible for us students who haven't graduated from school to control the dragons—" Harry scratched his head, very Obviously, he felt that this matter was very difficult, "There are only three people in each of our schools, and dealing with a dragon... It shouldn't be about defeating the dragon... It's not necessarily..."

"[The first project is to test your courage, so we are not going to tell you what it is. Dare to face the unknown is an important quality of a wizard... very important...]" Triton repeated it slowly Director Crouch's "instructions" on the first game on Halloween night, and then drew a simple schematic on the desk with his wand, "He was talking about guts, now we know it's a dragon. Normal wizards see The dragon will definitely be afraid, but if he wants to kill the dragon, then he will remind us of 'strength' instead of 'guts'. The dragon trainer will definitely be on standby at the side of the field, ready to save our lives at any time—"

Triton looked down at the silver four-frame drawing he drew on the desk, wrote the dragon in the middle, and dotted a few dots outside the frame, and drew the initials of the dragon trainer, "What are the habits of the brooding female dragon? I don't quite understand, but if you refer to our merman shark's violent egg protection attribute during the egg incubation period—”

Triton's words came to an abrupt end, Harry and Draco looked at each other subconsciously, and then looked up together to Cedric, who felt that everyone was looking at him belatedly, Hufflepuff, who was in seventh grade He repeated it again in a daze: "'Our sea mermaid'?"

Triton rubbed his forehead, and after struggling for a while, he still confessed his identity, and without waiting for Cedric's reaction, he decisively continued what he said just now, "...Actually, I think the goal is obvious. Dragons may be difficult to deal with, but what about dragon eggs? It's not even possible for us to get real eggs, but whether they are real eggs or fake eggs, these dragons will undoubtedly be violent, and we will be more dangerous-but if we If getting the egg is equal to victory..."

"That is to say, the level-breaking game?" Draco said a Muggle noun a little jerky, "I think those eggs are not that simple, and they may be linked to our level-breaking results—"

"Punishment mechanism." Harry quickly continued, "Maybe even if we can get the egg successfully, we will lose points if we accidentally break all the other eggs, so—"

Cedric interrupted Harry somewhat dumbfounded. He sincerely looked at this golden-eyed boy who ranked second next year in the Warriors team, but was the petite boy with golden eyes, "I'm not those pedantic wizards— You don’t have to guard me like a thief. Although I don’t know what the mermaid means, these three words don’t prevent me from knowing the real you. You are a mermaid, but you are also Triton Wyn Tell."

Triton really wanted to smile at him, but the result was obvious. He couldn't control the nerves or muscles on his face to pull even the slightest bit, so he could only nod in the end.

Cedric patted Triton's shoulder without hesitation, with a warm and handsome smile on his face, "It's getting late, let's go back and rest, and discuss it with the think tanks tomorrow."

Seeing Potter walking away step by step, Triton didn't even look back, Draco hesitated to speak along the way, almost suffocating himself.

"What's wrong?" Triton asked flatly.

"Um," Draco asked tentatively, hesitating, "Are you going for the first Hogsmeade Week this term?"

They discussed this issue three days ago.Triton took a deep breath, "Get to the point."

"...Well, I mean, is it really okay to tell that Hufflepuff like this?" Draco did not forget to lower his voice. I can't hide it, just say a slip of the tongue, isn't it all right?

"You can hide it for a while, but you can't hide it forever." Triton said indifferently, "Cedric is a kind person, but if he planted a fuse of suspicion in his heart, what will happen to the competition? You are both fourth graders. If he deliberately does not cooperate, Or if you fight on your own, what about Hogwarts?"

"But, this is your secret!" Draco said dissatisfiedly, "You have been in Slytherin for four years, and the other students have never even heard of it. Now that you tell him, he can't keep it secret—"

A smile flashed across Triton's eyes, and the corners of his mouth curled down, "Am I still afraid that they will eat me? Even if I eat, I won't be able to live forever!"
