Not long after Hagrid's father left, Dunn, Ella, Angelica, and Mera appeared at the entrance of the Panda Tavern.
The four of them Apparated together.
Knowing that Hagrid had returned to school early, Dunn decided to hold a welcome party for Hagrid at the Panda Tavern tonight, and the two house-elves who came with him had already started preparing dinner in the tavern kitchen.
Dunn single-handedly called Hagrid aside.
"Your father went to Eastern Europe?"
"He was working for the Ministry of Magic, but he didn't tell me exactly what."
Dunn nodded.
Eastern Europe is the habitat of giants.
Hagrid's father went there, certainly not to help Hagrid find his mother.
Of course, trying to convince the giants to fight is not an easy task.
"Dunn, I want to ask you one thing.
Hagrid hesitated.
He turned his head and glanced at the people who were placing the plates.
"I have a pet."
He carefully pulled out a fluffy black ball from his pocket, which was meant to be put back in the pocket by Dunn with a quick glance, but he didn't expect it to move, terrified him, and Thought I accidentally killed it.
"My Aragog, it—"
"Shut up, Hagrid!99
Dunn glanced quickly at the black hairball in Hagrid's hand, recognizing that it was a spider with its body and feet tucked into a ball, with eight closed eyes on its abdomen indicating its extraordinary identity.
The eight-eyed spider, a magical creature with a 5-star danger level like a basilisk.
"It's not dead, if you don't want it to die, put it away immediately."
Hagrid was willing to believe Dunn's words, and hurriedly stuffed the black hairball back into his pocket.
"It was fine until it came.
"Don't worry, it's just playing dead."
The eight-eyed giant spider is only frightened like this when it encounters natural enemies. Dunn guessed that it was all related to the special talent [Word Spirit – Snake King] he acquired after contracting with the Feathered Serpent.
Feeling the eight-eyed spider move in his pocket, Hagrid was truly relieved.
He was very worried that Dunn would ask the origin of the eight-eyed giant spider, but Dunn just asked him where he wanted to keep the eight-eyed giant spider.
"For the time being, I want to keep it in my room."
If anyone else heard this, they would have thought Hagrid was crazy.
Don't look at the eight-eyed giant spider in Hagrid's pocket, which is only as big as a palm. As long as there is enough food, it can grow to more than 1 meter long before school starts, and can exceed 5 meters in size when it is an adult.
Raised in the room, you must be ready to be eaten by the eight-eyed giant spider as food.
"Are you sure you want to keep it?"
"Of course I have named it Aragog. 35
"follow me."
Dunn took Hagrid upstairs to Hagrid's room.
Hagrid took the newborn eight-eyed spider out of his pocket, and it was the same as before, curled up in fright.
Dunn taught Hagrid the simplified holy deed, and asked him to sign a master-servant contract with the Octopus.
Hagrid hesitated when he heard about the bloodletting.
"Dunn, Aragog was just born.""
"Don't worry, the eight-eyed giant spider doesn't die so easily.
Hagrid had to follow Dunn's instructions, smashed the body of the eight-eyed giant spider, let out a little blood, and then cut his own palm and dripped the blood.
Under the action of the holy deed, the two groups of blood fused automatically to form a magic circle, which penetrated into the head of the eight-eyed giant spider.
"Okay, now you can make it move."
Hagrid hesitated to order.
"Aragog, get up!
The eight-eyed giant spider curled up in a ball immediately came to life, turned over, and lay carefully on Hagrid's arm.
Hagrid stretched out a finger and gently scratched the head of the eight-eyed spider.
"He's so cute! But I feel like he's afraid of you. 35
"Well, in the future it will completely obey your orders, and in a few days it will grow up, and you can put it in the forbidden forest. 99
Hearing this, Hagrid immediately protected the eight-eyed spider in his arms like a chicken guard.
"No, the forbidden forest is too dangerous!"
"It's very dangerous, but for the other creatures in the Forbidden Forest! 99 Dunn looked at Hagrid angrily, "I suggest you go back to Professor Scamander and ask about the eight-eyed spider, this thing It likes to live in dense forests, and likes to prey on huge prey, it has no opponent in the forbidden forest!"9
"But what if it gets lost in the forbidden forest?"
"You just need to find him a relatively fixed area of activity, and it won't run far."
Hagrid was relieved.
Watching Hagrid carefully put the tarantula back in his pocket, Dunn reminded him again not to let anyone know that he kept a tarantula in the Forbidden Forest.
Otherwise, Hagrid would be expelled from school immediately even if the eight-eyed spider did nothing.
After dealing with the eight-eyed spider, Dunn and Hagrid went downstairs, by which time dinner was almost ready.
An owl flapped its wings and flew in through the window, bringing a letter to Dunn.
The letter was written by Moody.
He told Dunn that he had received a letter from Hagrid that Hagrid was about to return to school early.
Moody also wanted to come back early, but unfortunately his parents didn't agree.
Even Moody's mother threatened him that if he dared to sneak away, she would write to Hogwarts and have him expelled from the school.
Dunn wrote back a letter to Moody, telling him to stay home.
Although Moody doesn't like Hagrid's hobby of keeping all kinds of dangerous pets, but let him get together with Hagrid, plus an eight-eyed giant spider, he still doesn't know what the Forbidden Forest will look like (Nuo Li Zhao) .
Dunn could even imagine the gamekeeper going crazy next term.
Hagrid obeyed Dunn's advice, and quietly sent the eight-eyed giant spider into the forbidden forest after it grew to half a meter, found a place he felt safe enough, and built a tree house for the eight-eyed giant spider.
Dunn didn't say anything when he found out.
Hagrid didn't think about spending time with the Eight-Eyed Spider in the Forbidden Forest, Dunn was already satisfied.
Now he doesn't have that much energy to deal with it.
The construction of the magic circle of Hogsmeade Village No. 1 was finally completed before the start of Hogwarts, and it is no weaker than Hogwarts Castle in terms of defense.
Because of the lack of the magic power supply core, it takes a long time to draw magic power from the magic circle, and it will take a while for all the magic circles to take effect.
But blocking normal enemies is enough.
