Hogwarts: Harry Returns From The Witcher

The sun is not good in the Forbidden Forest.

Especially once you step into the territory of the acromantia, you can't see any sunlight, even the gaps between the branches and vines are filled by the hard-working arthropods with the skins and bones of their prey.

Smelly, corrupt, and cold.

It almost fits all the fantasies of people who have never entered the Forbidden Forest.

Ron looked around.

The doubt just now was not just an illusion. He remembered that he had really been here, together with George and Fred. It was two years ago. The giant spider's territory is a long way away.

two years

Can it expand here unscrupulously?

"Acromantara is a kind of creature with strong reproductive ability." Hagrid waved his wand, magically brushing away the spider web, "Two acromantara reproduce at least one hundred eggs at a time, after six to eight After about a week of hatching, they will break out of their shells, and they will reproduce about seven to eight times a year, almost every two months."

"The lifespan of this kind of creature is about 60 years. They can reproduce from the age of five, and they lose their ability to reproduce when they are about 55 years old."

Ron snapped his fingers.

His arithmetic ability has grown significantly over the years through the education of Harry and Hermione.

But this kind of exponential growth, when he counted to the second generation, he was powerless and unable to count.

Harry glanced at him: "The most important thing is that the Forbidden Forest has no natural enemies of acromantula."

The acromander has few natural enemies.

When this kind of creature has not yet formed a large enough scale, the spider catcher is a kind of natural enemy. They can use the larvae of the giant spider as food, but there is no such creature in the Forbidden Forest.

When acromantulas become adults, the basilisk is their only natural enemy.

However, there are no such creatures in the Forbidden Forest.

Having no natural enemies, creatures that are free from the biological chain, and have a strong ability to reproduce, the consequences are extremely dire.

Step by step, the giant eight-eyed spider encroached on the space of the Forbidden Forest.

Hagrid said nothing.

Harry didn't speak, and stopped. There were crackling sounds from the woods, and even Hermione and Ron noticed it.

A giant eight-eyed spider jumped out, carefully keeping a distance from them: "I remember you."

"The human wizard who killed many of our people!"

"And Friends of Aragog"

"The front is our territory, please leave."

Harry said softly, "We want to see Aragog."

"We know what you want to do." The acromantula opened its mouth, shaking its talons, "Aragok won't promise you, and we won't promise you either."

"contract?"

"That kind of stuff doesn't make sense."

"Who knows, what tricks you human wizards will play."

Harry drew out his wand.

The acromantulas retreated a few steps in stress: "What do you want to do? Do you want to start a war with us? Human!"

"No, I just want to inform you that from now on, this is not your territory." Harry said softly, grabbing a handful of seeds from his pocket and throwing them on the ground.

The wand is waved, and the spell is spoken.

The seeds fell to the ground, took root quickly, and then grew. The branches and tendrils pierced the spider web, wrapped the polluted trees, and swallowed the flesh and bones hanging on the trees, which were smelly and filled with maggots.

In an instant, it was dawn.

Moonlight spilled from the gaps in the branches.

In the woods, it takes on a new look in the blink of an eye.

The plants spawned by the magic cleaned the trees, devoured the spider web decorations, and even the ground was covered with a new layer of moss, covering the ugly land polluted and corroded by spiders.

Ron and Hagrid watched in surprise.

"What, what kind of magic is this?" Hagrid stammered, gripping his wand.

Ron nodded, he wanted to know too.

"Professor Sprout taught us herbal medicine last year," Hermione reminded.

Can you learn spells in fifth grade?

Hagrid frowned. He had consulted with the professors, and he had learned all the spells in the upper grades, but he really didn't remember this kind of spell.

Ron was also thinking hard.

Fifth grade? Professor Sprout? Learned by yourself?

After a while, he slowed down and said hesitantly, "Hermione, you mean the bonsai spell?"

Hermione nodded.

The bonsai spell is a very important learning content in the fifth grade-after all, this is a spell that can really help people get a job. But the spell Harry used was different from the bonsai spell that Ron knew. Can the magic of pruning potted plants be applied to such a large forest?

He tried to take out his wand, pointed it at a tree, and started tinkering.

The giant eight-eyed spiders didn't like such a clean environment, they clicked back.

"Hagrid, do you know where Aragog is?" Harry turned his head.

Hagrid nodded and took a few steps forward, leading the way with an oil lamp in his hand.

The acromantulas followed behind, lurking in the forest, lurking and following, and the scale of the spider team became bigger and bigger.

All four are fearless.

Harry is not afraid of them, no matter how large the scale is, he can solve it by himself, nothing more than the problem of whether this forest can be kept.

Hagrid believed that Aragog would not harm himself.

Hermione and Ron trusted Harry completely.

After more than half an hour, they rushed to a nest.

A huge acromantula was waiting for them: "Hagrid, my dear friend"

"I never thought that one day we would meet in this situation."

Its speech is more organized than other spiders, and time brings not only physical aging, but also more wisdom.

Hagrid was about to speak.

Harry was one step ahead of him: "Aragok?"

"It's me." The huge, old acromantula nodded.

"An acromantula with a name, I thought you would be closer to humans." Harry walked up to it.

The eight compound eyes reflected Harry's figure, and it replied: "Aren't we close to humans? We have lived in the Forbidden Forest for decades, and we have never hurt any little wizard."

"Really?" Harry said calmly, "Then I should praise you?"

"Never hurt any of the little Hogwarts wizards."

He paused for a while, and said earnestly: "If it's not for not daring to go out of the Forbidden Forest."

"If you can't beat me."

Aragog shook his head anxiously: "Human cubs, I restrained them, but you killed so many of my children, you should be prepared for revenge."

"It was your kid who wanted to sneak up on us in the first place." Harry said softly.

Aragog's voice became weaker: "They just want to play a joke on you."

"Acromantula still has the ability to make jokes?" Harry smiled, and turned to Hagrid and said, "Dear Professor Hagrid, you can study this matter, maybe you can write another article that shocks the world. paper."

Speaking of the thesis, Hagrid's head was almost as big as his brother's.

Harry raised his wand and pointed it at it: "So, now I'm here to invite you in person, aren't you willing to sign the oath?"

"Human, please allow me to refuse." Aragog shook his head, his tone stiff, "You guys are going too far!"

"This is the Forbidden Forest!"

"It's not you humans who should set foot and interfere"

Harry interrupted it: "It seems that you have heard something. Ravenclaw did have an oath with the Forbidden Forest. Hogwarts will not interfere with the development of the Forbidden Forest."

"But, you guys, the acromantia is not in the oath of the Forbidden Forest."

"It seems that because you are Hagrid's friend, I will give you one last chance to sign an oath with Hogwarts. Hagrid and I will discuss and draw a territory for you. From now on, you acromantulas will only You can live in that territory, and you will never be able to cross it from now on."

The group of giant eight-eyed spiders rattled and rattled.

They could hear Harry's intention to reduce the scope of the territory.

"or."

"The last time I fought against your group of spiders, was it two years ago?"

"Maybe, I should show you how much I have improved in the past two years?"

"I can let you take a look, and I can also wait until you know your mistakes, admit your mistakes, and then sign the oath."

Aragog was restless, and his voice was impatient: "Human, you are too much!"

"Then you chose the latter?" Harry raised his wand, and the flames surged out, turning into a small flame griffin, hovering above their heads, illuminating the entire space, "Are you sure? "

Aragog raised his voice: "No! Human wizard!"

"Is that the former?" Harry didn't put away his wand, his tone was indifferent.

Aragog looked at Hagrid, pleading: "Let me think for a while, okay?"

"I have to be responsible for my people."

"Hagrid, my dearest friend, my dearest master, Hagrid, give me some time to think about it."

Hagrid couldn't bear it: "Harry."

"You're delaying time." Harry waved his hand, holding down what Hagrid was about to say, and he looked at Aragog in surprise, "You're delaying time?"

"Why?"

Aragog turned his head away.

It is indeed very smart, but it has only dealt with Hagrid for so many years, so it has no wisdom and no experience in dealing with people.

It's like a display screen that unreservedly reveals all the ideas that its brain operates.

"You don't have room to think about it." Harry looked at it, retracted his wand and flame, thoughtfully, "You know, no matter how long you think about it, the end result is the same, delaying this time is not good for you It doesn't make any sense, unless you want to escape from the Forbidden Forest, but that's even more unlikely, you should know that the Ministry of Magic, Hogwarts, me and Dumbledore, can't tolerate such a large group of acromantia cholera."

"But you still want to stall for time."

"tell me why?"

Aragog remained silent.

"Insomnia!"

Harry raised his wand, pointed at it, and said the spell.

The mental power searched its brain, and the memory was pulled away layer by layer. Harry picked one of the layers and spread it out.

This is a memory from more than a year ago.

A darker black than it is today, Aragog meets a man in the Forbidden Forest.

"Human wizard, you are dangerous." Aragog stared at him, "You are not for Venom, what do you want to do?"

"This is the Forbidden Forest, I am."

The thin, pale man shook his head: "I mean no harm."

"It's just that your child is a little disobedient. If I want to see you, I have to resort to some means."

"I made a rash visit this time because I want to discuss something with you."

Aragog looked at him.

"These days in the Forbidden Forest, you must have had a hard time." The man said softly, "You can only rely on preying on some birds and rats as food, and many times you can't even eat enough. That half-blood giant often makes you Restrain yourself."

"This is my sincerity."

With a flick of his wand, the waist pocket opened.

More than a dozen corpses flew out.

Harry, who was on the sidelines in his memory, looked at more than a dozen corpses, both male and female, and they all had the same features. The skin on the left arm was corroded by strong acid, and some traces were erased.

"Human flesh! It smells like human flesh!"

"Food, it's food!"

The giant eight-eyed spiders around the side shouted and became excited.

"Please enjoy." The man waved his hand.

The acromantulas pounced on them, leaving Aragog with the two fattest corpses, and they dragged away the remaining dozen or so corpses, eating them without hesitation.

"What do you want to do?" Aragog said softly.

The man raised his head, looked at it, and asked, "Want to be free?"

"The freedom not to be imprisoned in the Forbidden Forest?"

"Want to enjoy food with recklessness?"

Aragog shook his head: "Of course I want to, but it's impossible. Hagrid won't allow it, neither the old wizard with the white beard in the castle, nor the little wizard with cat eyes."

The man lowered his voice, full of temptation: "But my master allows it."

"Cooperate?"

"Hogwarts has made an oath with the Forbidden Forest. The castle cannot harm the Forbidden Forest. The Forbidden Forest cannot harm the castle, but you are an exception. You acromanders do not belong to the Forbidden Forest. As long as you want, you can break into Hogwarts at any time." Gwartz and those little wizards are all ready-made food for you."

Aragog continued to shake his head.

The man nodded: "Of course, I understand your concerns, Dumbledore and Potter."

"My master will get rid of them sooner or later. Of course, this requires a little help."

"Would you like to cooperate with us?"

Aragog hesitated. He stared at the two corpses in front of him. Although they were severely decomposed, the smell of human flesh could not help but escape into the fluff on his legs. It was sweet and delicious!

After a while, Aragog asked, "What are you going to do?"

"When this sign lights up in the sky, you rush to the castle. After the event is completed, the master will promise you a piece of land, and you will be able to establish a kingdom belonging to your acromantia on this land." The man waved his magic wand, A small mark was made, the black skull opened, and a ferocious snake crawled out of its mouth.

It's the Dark Mark.

Aragog clicked, and pulled the two corpses into his stomach: "Humans, if the old wizard with the white beard and the cat-eyed wizard are still in the castle, we will not step out of the Forbidden Forest."

The man smiled: "Don't worry, everything will go smoothly."

He raised his head, grinning ferociously on his pale face.

Harry, who was on the sidelines in his memory, saw his face clearly - it was Barty Crouch Jr. who had never been masked.
