Chapter 169 Spider Swarm War
"Hagrid's friend? What happened fifty years ago..." The big spider smacked its lips and made a clicking sound.
It was easy to talk, and instead of refusing, it babbled a lot, which made Harry, Hermione and the others heave a sigh of relief.
The big spider said that it was called Aragog. It was given to Hagrid by a traveler when it was still an egg. Hagrid hatched it in the castle and fed it with bread crumbs and saved food.
But not long after something happened in the castle, a girl was killed in the bathroom, and then someone came to arrest Hagrid and Aragog.
Aragog was let go by Hagrid, and finally settled in the Forbidden Forest. He didn't know what happened afterwards.
Hermione asked quickly: "What is the monster in the secret room?"
Aragog rubbed his front legs, looking a little uneasy: "I can't say, that's the natural enemy of spiders, I can't face it!" Obviously it didn't want to mention that monster.
But Aragog also said that all these years, thanks to Hagrid who has been taking good care of it, he also found a wife for him, and gave birth to a lot of children...
Hearing this, Ron was taken aback, and realized: A lot of children? !
He looked up suddenly, and under the moonlight, a dozen or so spiders the size of a pony were silently hanging down from the tree!
Ron: "Ah~~~" The voice is like a dolphin!
The others discovered that they had been surrounded by eight-eyed spiders unknowingly!
Hermione shouted anxiously: "We are Hagrid's friends, you can't do this!"
Aragog rubbed his two fangs, making a rattling sound, the smaller eight-eyed spiders stopped approaching, but some of the larger ones were still eager to move forward. , The teeth in the mouth are also rattling.
This is how they communicate! I was cheated just now!
Aragog said: "We won't hurt Hagrid, but it's not necessarily the case for others."
It twisted its body and looked around: "I can't stop the children from enjoying the fresh meat delivered to the door. I hope you can understand."
"Bah! I understand Merlin's flowery underpants!" Jerry spat hard, and threw out a few round things the size of red dates.
That thing is the masterpiece of the Weasley twins. They have been researching transforming candies, but they still haven't grasped the key points, but they have also developed some other products, such as this "cracking firecracker"!
This thing is really loud!
A few crackling firecrackers hit the ground with a "cracking" sound, sparks splashed and flew all over the sky in an instant.
Where did those eight-eyed spiders see this thing? The flames and loud noise scared them back, and suddenly gave way to a large space.
"According to the original plan! Withdraw!" Ted yelled and stood in front of everyone, "Frost Nova!"
As he stomped his feet suddenly, a white cold current spread towards the fan-shaped area in front of him, and the weeds and shrubs on the ground were immediately covered with frost and ice.
There were three or four eight-eyed spiders that were greedy for human flesh and were closer to each other. They couldn't dodge in time, and their eight legs were directly frozen.
Ted's wand pointed again, and the large slab of ice on the ground burst open, and the shards of ice poured all around like a torrential rain.
"Withdraw, withdraw, withdraw!"
When it comes to retreating, Ron runs the fastest, several consecutive "retreat the enemy three feet~" and knocks the huge spider in front of him into the air.
This move startled Ted. You must know that Ron's wand is now nine inches long and has an eight-inch anti-bone! I didn't give him a backfire just now, it was simply burning incense!
Ron had forgotten his battle-damaged brother's magic wand. He just suddenly discovered that spiders don't seem so scary? Ma De, I am a wizard and can do magic, come here!
However, there are too many eight-eyed spiders, not only in the front, back, left, and right, but even the spider silk hanging from the top of the head to sneak attack.
The six of Ted ran more than ten meters away and were blocked by more spiders!
"Prepare~Protect from evil!" Ted raised his head, and everyone raised their wands together and used them to protect against evil.
A majestic magic power gathered together, forming a strange magic field around the six people. The range is twenty meters in diameter!
Once the spiders stepped into it, they felt uncomfortable, even excruciatingly painful, and fled out screaming.
However, the number of spiders is huge, and in just a dozen seconds, a large number of them gathered outside the magic range! Large and small, densely packed, layer upon layer.
At this moment, Ted gave Neville a wink, and Neville nodded and rushed to the front, only two or three meters away from the nearest spider, and suddenly pulled out the magic tooth dagger.
"Flash burst!"
There was a "bang", and then the whole world seemed to turn into a ball of dazzling white.
The reason why eight-eyed spiders regard the basilisk as their natural enemy is because they will die directly if they look at the basilisk. They have eight eyes and cannot close them, which is equivalent to receiving the gaze of the basilisk from all directions without dead ends.
It's the same now, this violent flashing explosion directly caused 99% of the eight-eyed spiders present to temporarily lose their vision, and the sound of rattling rattled for a while.
The big spiders turned their backs on their backs, ran and rushed around, and even attacked each other in a panic.
At this moment, a car horn sounded not far away, and then two strands of headlights lit up in the forest, and an old Ford car with scratches rushed out of the forest.
Ron's eyes widened: "Yes, it's my family's car!"
Ted Yile: "Get in the car, get in the car!"
The five little friends were all stuffed into the car, and Ted shouted: "You guys drive ahead first, wait for me in front, I will give them a hard time!"
As he spoke, he slammed the car door, facing the group of spiders behind him who hadn't fully recovered.
He was still waving his magic wand, just like a conductor at a concert, magic power oscillated and flowed around him.
"Firewall~"
Around Ted, a two-meter-high wall of fire was burning. Several larger eight-eyed spiders had already recovered first, surrounded by the wall of fire, not daring to approach and not willing to retreat.
"Hang up, inject venom..."
"I'm going to eat from my feet..."
Several big spiders can speak intermittently, but they are not as agile as Aragog.
They are the descendants of Aragog, with a level of 7 or 8.
Ted noticed that Aragog had been stopping at the entrance of the hole, and now he even retracted most of his body into the hole, looking on the sidelines.
Didn't Aragog care about the life and death of these spiders? Even wishing to use Ted's hand to get rid of them? !
Before Ted encountered a stray spider outside the territory of the eight-eyed spider, and it was likely that he failed to compete for the leader.
I can’t control so much anymore, isn’t Ted preparing for this wave for a long time?
Seeing more and more eight-eyed spiders almost stacked on top of each other and squeezed in front of the fire wall, Ted raised his wand and pointed at the foot of the spider group: "Flame Storm~"
The ground suddenly turned fiery red, like a red-hot iron plate, and then violent flames gushed out like magma!
The diameter is three meters, the pillar of fire is five meters high, and the surrounding five or six meters are as hot as in a furnace... The dark depths of the Forbidden Forest seem to light up in an instant!
"Boom~~~" The flame continued to roar, and it gradually weakened after three seconds, leaving only a charred black ashes on the ground.
The surviving eight-eyed spiders were scared away long ago.
The system prompt in Ted's mind refreshed more than ten or twenty times in an instant!
"Ding~ kill the eight-eyed spider and gain 730 experience points..."
"Ding~ Kill the eight-eyed spider and get 690 points..."
"Ding ~ kill the eight-eyed spider, get 720..."
"Ding ~ kill the eight-eyed spider and get..."
"Ding ~ kill eight eyes..."
"Ding ~ kill..."
"Ding~..."
A total of 12960 experience points have been recorded!
Killing and arson gold belt!
Once the spell is sounded, ten thousand taels of gold!
I realized it!
Ted felt so comfortable!
It's a pity that there are not many such opportunities, and it is impossible to kill a large number of magical animals for no reason.
If this continues, it is estimated that the number of eight-eyed spiders in the Forbidden Forest will not be able to recover in a few years.
Unfortunately, the eight-eyed spider's body materials and venom were also burnt and wasted.
Ted received seven or eight white and green cards, then directly oiled the soles of his feet and ran away.
As for the fire still burning on the tree, eight-eyed spiders are so smart, let them make up for it~
…
Ted came back safely, and the friends breathed a sigh of relief. The flames behind him just now were really scary.
After more than half a year, Ron held the steering wheel of his speeding car again. He was so excited that he kicked the accelerator to the end, and the hand that put it in gear left an afterimage.
The speeding car is about to break down, or the magic power is insufficient, so it can't fly anymore, but it can still jump up and glide for a short distance.
The highlands in the Forbidden Forest are scattered and the terrain of the roots of the trees is stunned. It feels like a famous autumn mountain.
Jerry's face has been squeezed against the windshield, deformed. Muttering in his mouth: "Ron, I know you are anxious to stay away from the spider, but can we drive slowly? Don't die in the spider's mouth, die in your hands!"
However, Ron turned a deaf ear and rushed out of the Forbidden Forest at high speed, then slowed down until the car stopped.
The six people in the car were panting heavily, and the classic car was also humming, as if it was about to turn off at any moment.
"Woo~"
"Wooooow..." Ron suddenly lay on the steering wheel and cried loudly.
My friends are confused!
Jerry tried to comfort him: "Well, Ron, your car is actually pretty good!"
Harry: "Look, your family's car has been found. Congratulations!"
Neville: "Congratulations!" (Me too~)
However, Ron cried even harder.
"What's the matter with you? Did you get bitten by a spider? We ran out, don't be afraid of spiders!" Jerry thought Ron was afraid of spiders.
As a result, Ron choked up and said, "I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry..."
The other five people looked at each other, completely unaware of what happened.
Ron said: "It's me! It's all because of me! I should be brave and tell everyone earlier..."
