Chapter 818 The Second Meeting
The location where the giant lives is very special. In fact, Fan Lin has never understood why the giant likes to establish his own territory on the hills. What's more, the place the giant chose is an active volcano, but this is The volcano has never erupted, at least when the Ministry of Magic has records. Giants have always been living around the volcano, and the unusually strong fluctuations in the volcano always indicate the possibility that it is still active.
Perhaps it is a habit passed down from ancient times.
This probably dates back to the age of God.
The first people to record it were the ancient Greeks.
Cyclops is a giant from Sicily in Greek mythology. It has a single eye on its forehead, and its name in Greek means round eye, good at forging. According to Greek mythology, the first generation of Cyclops were the children of Uranus and Gaia, three in total.
According to the ancient Greek poet and famous wizard Hesiod, they are strong, stubborn, and impulsive, and are good at making and using various tools and weapons.
In the myth of Hesiod, the Cyclops are the children of Uranus and Gaia. They are brontes (thunder), sterops (electricity) and arges (thunderbolt) respectively. They are characterized by "one-eyed", with only one eye in the middle of the forehead. . Ouranos feared their power and imprisoned them in the dark abyss. Later, in order to fight against the Titans, Zeus released them from the dark abyss. They forged thunderbolts for Zeus, invisible helmets for Hades, tridents for Poseidon, bows and moonlight arrows for Artemis, and bows and solar arrows for Apollo.
This is probably the most detailed description of the creature Cyclops.
Possessing the ability to fight against Titans, in fact, many wizards believe that Cyclops is just the next generation of Titans.
Just like wizards cannot naturally master it, Cyclops can control thunder and fire. This is probably the reason why they are good at forging. Since the existence of gods has been confirmed, Fanlin does not doubt these seemingly illusory records.
However, the powerful bloodline is lonely, just like those pure-blood wizard families who are unable to continue their bloodline talent magic, but the giants are more thorough in this degradation.
The giants become more and more human, and their power dwindles with them.
Their blood gives them unparalleled physical abilities. Never doubt the relationship between giants and fire dragons.
It can be said that dragons are powerful, but adult giants feed on dragons.
The dragons of ancient times are not comparable to those of today. If the dragons of today are considered giants, then the ancient dragons standing below and looking up can help people understand what it means to block out the sky and the sun.
However, the dragon is no longer a dragon, and the giant...
Fan Lin very much doubted why the giant's IQ perished.
Perhaps the world just took away the unbalanced magical abilities, and then the remaining ones simply caused some problems in the continuation of the bloodline.
However, many giant customs have been perfectly preserved.
Survive in the mountains, like to fight, and stay close to fire sources. The former giant was able to create weapons for the gods that would last a lifetime.
"So, is this why it's so hot here?" Fan Lin complained in a low voice. In fact, with his magical nature, he didn't really like the environment where giants lived.
The slight smell of sulfur made Fan Lin feel very uncomfortable.
However, it is not difficult to understand. Winter is always cold. Even giants cannot survive the whole winter relying solely on their skin. Without magic, animal skins seem to be the only ones that dragon skins can do to giants. After satisfying their body shape, it becomes the source of heat.
As a gift from nature, at least that's what the giants think. The warmth of the volcanic cave can allow them to survive a whole harsh winter, so that the next severe winter...
Speaking of which, Giant Luke was not embarrassed by Terrance when he handed over the gift. To be precise, the giants never refuse such gifts, but the results were not satisfactory.
Terrance lacked the giant's love for gifts for Fanlin's animal tooth accessories. It could be said that he looked down upon them, so he just played with them casually and then threw them into the corner of the cave where he lived.
This is not a good performance. As the belligerent representative of the giants, Terrance seems to lack some patience with Dumbledore's people, which is different from the happy Gugo.
Today's interview took place at Gu Ge's cave, which is a cave in a volcano. The heat caused Fan Lin to sweat a little.
When Hagrid presented the gift and explained to Sirius their purpose, as well as Dumbledore's words.
Gugo, who seemed to be quite pleasing to the eye, expressed some unexpected interest. He seemed to be very interested in what Dumbledore said. He roared a few times, and Luke Giant told them that Gugo had heard about Dumbledore's story. name, knowing that he was a great wizard.
This is definitely a surprising situation. A giant who lives in seclusion in the mountains has actually heard of Dumbledore. Fan Lin doubts whether all magical creatures in Europe know Dumbledore's name.
Inside the cave, more and more giants gathered, all showing expressions of interest...
This was definitely a good sign. The conversation that followed was quite pleasant, and several people were full of hope.
When Hagrid promised to bring another gift tomorrow, which would definitely be better than the alchemy armor in Gu Ge's hands, Gu Ge had the brightest smile on his face.
This is definitely the best news that Gu Ge has heard. As for things like armor, except for the knights of the Holy See or the royal family, basically no one will use it, and most of them are just for decoration.
Using some useless things in exchange for the friendship of some powerful war beasts is undoubtedly a very cost-effective deal compared to buying and selling.
However, things are not all smooth sailing. Hagrid said that Death Eaters have also had contact with giants. At this point, there is no guarantee that Gugo will not fall to Voldemort's side because of more gifts.
Gugo had heard of Albus Dumbledore, so Gugo must have heard of Voldemort.
Even the giants are aware of the threat of the Dark Lord. Moreover, in the last era of the Dark Lord, the giants were the weapons of the Death Eaters. However, Voldemort's sudden fall caused the giants to suffer as well, but no one can guarantee it. , have the giants learned their lesson?
However, judging from the current situation, there should be no... (To be continued)
