Defence Against the Dark Arts Professor - Quirrell

For students, teachers are always the most trustworthy and reliable besides parents. Similarly, some staff in the school can also gain this kind of trust.As far as Harry is concerned, even when he was in the Muggle world, Dali would never dare to bully him in front of teachers and some adults.In particular, Hagrid is not just one of the faculty members. Although Quirrell first opened the door to the wizarding world for him, Hagrid was the first to take Harry out of the Muggle world after all. His horizons are getting wider and wider, and he is gradually estranged from Hagrid, but he will always have a gratitude to him—unless special circumstances happen, this kind of gratitude and trust will remain in Harry's heart for a lifetime .

However, judging from the current situation, that "special situation" is likely to happen tonight...

As they got deeper and deeper into the Forbidden Forest, it became darker and darker, and there was no road under their feet.The cries of unknown beasts came from the depths of the woods, and Harry could even see eyes with strange colors flickering not far from them.To be honest, Harry kind of regretted saying yes to Hagrid.No matter what Hagrid kept in the Forbidden Forest, since they could survive in such a place, they would definitely not be docile lambs.And what worried him even more was Draco. He was not worried that he would not keep up, but that he would follow up, or even worse, get lost in the Forbidden Forest.

Harry had at least thought it was a harmless, easy farewell party, and Draco following along was just the right way to have company when he was bored.But in this dangerous place, Harry didn't think that an underage wizard of his age would be safe and sound.

"Hagrid." Harry stopped, even if it made Hagrid sad or angry, he couldn't move forward.He was going to tell Hagrid that Drake was right behind them, then let Hagrid find Drake, and send them both back to Hogwarts.To be honest, for the first time since entering Hogwarts, Harry felt so bad that he felt like a self-righteous idiot - whether it was promising Hagrid to go to the farewell party in the first place, or allowing Draco to wear his cloak later Follow behind... But at this stage, biting the bullet and continuing to go deep into the Forbidden Forest with Hagrid is even more idiot than his past idiot behavior!

"What's the matter, Harry?" In some respects, Hagrid can actually be said to be the most innocent and kind-hearted guy in Hogwarts other than the students, pure love, pure hatred, pure not knowing why he The simplicity cannot be understood by others?While Harry had accepted his invitation to the farewell party, Hagrid thought he had finally found someone who understood him.

"Hagrid, I don't think we can go any further."

"Why?" Hagrid was stunned, he didn't understand that everything was fine before that?

"Actually, Hagrid..." Harry was about to explain, but his voice was interrupted by an annoying "click! click!" eyes surrounded! "What's that?" Harry asked tremblingly.

"It's the children of Aragog! They're here to welcome us!" Contrary to Harry's fear, Hagrid instantly forgot the unhappiness caused by the sudden incident just now, and laughed into those eyes.

"Hagrid." An ugly sound resembling someone scratching a steel plate with a steel brush sounded. Harry stared dumbfounded at a huge black-haired spider coming out of the darkness.

"Hollier, did Aragog ask you to pick us up?" Hagrid stepped forward to greet the spider. Houllier is the first-generation descendant of Aragog, only a circle younger than Aragog. It is also the second spider in the entire group of giant eight-eyed spiders.

"No, Hagrid, we're not going to leave the Forbidden Forest."

"I don't want you to leave either, Houlier." Hagrid suddenly became sad and depressed again, he walked over and stroked Houlier's long black-haired legs, "You will always be a friend of Acantara, Hagrid." Grid." Houllier moved his legs to avoid Hagrid's "caressing" hand, "So, don't hinder us."

"What are you going to do, Houllier?" Hagrid finally sensed the danger, he opened his beetle-like black eyes wide, and looked at his "cute spider" in astonishment.

"We want to defend our territory, Hagrid." Hollier waved his huge pincers, which were also covered with black hair, and made a sound of "click! click!", and other acromantulas gradually came out of the darkness. In response to it, there was a frightening "click" sound, this is the war mobilization of the acromantula!

"The wizard expelled us, so why can't we expel the wizard?! This is the territory of the acromantula, and nothing can make us leave!"

"But...Hollier, Aragog won't agree..." Hagrid became flustered. In his world, the acromantulas were his lovely treasures, kind and beautiful.And the students of Hogwarts Dumbledore, Professor McGonagall and Gryffindor are also kind and beautiful.How could these two equally bad creatures go to war?This is illogical!

"Hey hey~ Father is dead, Hagrid." Houllier let out an ugly laugh, "Don't stop us, then you'll still be our friend. Otherwise...you're a wizard who should be killed!"

"How?" Hagrid was shocked by the news of Aragog's death, but obviously, the living need him to worry more than the dead. When he was talking with Houllier, Harry had unknowingly been surrounded by spiders. Lear gave the order, seeing that Harry was about to become the spiders' supper, "No! Harry!"

"Oolong out of the hole!"

In fact, Draco had been following Harry closely - not close, but only a few steps away.In this kind of place where there are no roads, he can't even see his own feet when he is wrapped in an invisibility cloak, and Draco knows very well that if he and Harry are too far away, then the outcome is likely to be lost first and then lost.If you followed closely, the footsteps of Hagrid and Harry could easily cover his footsteps, but as long as you were careful, he was not so easily exposed.

But now it seems that this decision of Drake not only saved him from the danger of getting lost, but also saved his and Harry's lives!

Before the spiders rushed up, he had already moved to Harry's side and gently touched Harry's hand.This made Harry, who knew that he was not alone, very pleasantly surprised at first, but then even more sad.

"Run, Draco," whispered Harry, "don't let us both die together."

"Shh... oolong out!" Before Drake had time to shut Harry up, the spiders rushed over, and Drake released the spell that had already been prepared.The huge black snake rushed out, bumped into several impatient spiders, and then relentlessly crawled towards Hogwarts Castle at the fastest speed!

Although this big guy appeared very suddenly, the spiders didn't pay much attention to this matter, and they quickly started to fight back against the intruder!Moreover, these spiders were obviously proficient in teamwork. The largest of them rushed up to fight the giant snake. They quickly covered the giant snake's body, tore off its scales, and injected their own venom.The one that was slightly smaller by one size kept a certain distance from the giant snake, and spit out tough silk in order to restrain the huge prey.

Hagrid yelled at first from safety, but the spiders didn't listen to him.Hagrid had no choice but to attack the spider with tears in his eyes.But under Houllier's order, Hagrid was soon submerged...

In fact, when Drake summoned the giant snake, he covered Harry and himself with the invisibility cloak, and then started to run out through the commotion-it was very dangerous, and the spiders couldn't see them, but it didn't mean they couldn't hurt them. They, but this is their only way of life. Although the giant snake is mighty, it is better at attacking than defending. Draco doesn't think it can protect the two little guys from being surrounded by countless spiders unharmed.

Fortunately, although they brushed against a few spiders on the way to escape, spiders are spiders after all, and they didn't go to the bottom of what the thing that touched them but couldn't see was.Although they were also thrown from the "battlefield", such as spider corpses, or stones, broken logs, etc., it was luckier that they were all non-lethal objects. Although the two children's There are a few big bags on his head, but his life is safe.

But soon, their luck disappeared.

"Oh!" Draco groaned and stopped his footsteps. Harry held him up in time and did not let him fall. "My snake is dead." Draco looked at his left hand, and the beautiful silver ring appeared A crack.When the summoned object of black magic dies, the summoner must suffer the magic backlash, but the shrewd and powerful wizards use some means to transfer most of the backlash damage to other objects.This is the case with the ring that Quirrell gave him, which not only allows him to summon a giant snake beyond his ability, but also replaces Drake with a huge part of the backlash when the giant snake dies.

It's just that neither Draco nor Quirrell expected that this gift would come in handy so quickly and be scrapped so quickly...

"Sorry, Draco." Harry, who had seen many clerks, still knew the extraordinaryness and value of the ring.And he apologized to Drake not only because of the ring, but because he put Drake in danger.If Drake hadn't appeared at that time, then relying on the invisibility cloak, he could have left safely.

"Give me a better one for Christmas this year." Draco smiled, pulled Harry and continued to run wildly.Without the snake, the spiders would catch up quickly, and even with the invisibility cloak, Draco didn't think they were necessarily safe.

Drake was right. Ordinary spiders have only vague vision, no sense of smell or hearing. They rely on some special "sensory" organs on their feet to sense the vibrations around them for hunting or other activities.As for the giant magic spiders such as acromantula, they can talk to people normally, which means they have hearing, and the eight huge eyes indicate that they have good vision, and their eight Chang'an black hairs also have the same color as ordinary spiders. , and even more sensitive sensory organs!

The invisibility cloak could cover the figures and smells of the two children, but it couldn't hide the sound they made while running, as well as the tiny vibrations on the ground caused at the same time!It's acromanders' declaration of war on wizards in order to defend their territory, but they don't mind having a snack in the middle of the war either.What's more, the direction in which the two children fled was the direction in which the spider attacked.

A few giant arachnids chased after them, and the organs on the spiders' legs told them that there was indeed some prey not far away, but they couldn't see it. After a short thought, the spiders spewed out spider silk!
