Chapter 281 Encirclement and Suppression in Progress

The only other person besides Harry and Malfoy who felt bad about the acromander roundup was Hagrid, who insisted that the creature was not dangerous.

He told Ivan that Aragog and his descendants hope to be friends with humans.

He has repeatedly conveyed to everyone the kindness expressed by Aragog and other acromants, but Aiwen can be sure that these monsters only want to turn themselves into food.

Needless to say, he once set Aragog's lair on fire, and burned hundreds of acromantulas to death. The hatred between them was already irreconcilable, and they were completely immortal. Just because of the dark and evil nature of giant spiders, and the instinct of hunting and killing humans as food, they are destined to be natural enemies with wizards.

Ivan, Harry, Ron, and Hermione gave many examples, hoping to convince Hagrid to understand this.

Let him realize the danger of the acromant, but it was a waste of effort.

They walked out of Hagrid's cabin dejectedly on Tuesday afternoon.

"We're wasting our time, think about it, what Hagrid likes, three-headed dogs, dragons, hippogriffs, acromant..." Ron complained, "he Think of these monsters as friends of man."

"The hippogriff is not bad," Harry muttered under his breath, "but the other creatures are really bad, especially the acromantula."

"That's Hagrid's problem!" said Hermione sharply. "He always thought these animals were kind, and in his opinion, they weren't dangerous..."

"The only good thing is that he doesn't intend to stop us." Aiwen continued, "This is already a rare progress, and we have to convince him step by step."

"Come on, Ivan!" Ron sighed. "We all know what's going on. Dumbledore must have talked to him, so he didn't object."

As they talk, Hagrid has a fondness for all things dangerous and magical, not to mention a single-handedly raised Aragog.

He believed in the Octopus, just like he believed in Ivan and the others.

Although I said that I would not stop the encirclement and suppression of the acromantula, shortly after the operation started, Hagrid could often be seen patrolling the outside of the Forbidden Forest with a bow and arrow and Yaya the hound, killing all the eight-eyed spiders he could see. The acromantula rushes back into the depths of the forbidden forest or sends a signal to disrupt the encirclement.

Ivan suspects that he must have warned Aragog, because the acromantulas are now more vigilant than ever, and they will rush back to the depths of the Forbidden Forest whenever they see humans. But as carnivorous creatures, and considering that there are too many giant spiders in the Forbidden Forest, they have no choice but to come out to look for food.

The little wizards only need to set traps, or go a little deeper into the Forbidden Forest to encounter them.

The centaur also played a big role in finding the single Acromantus spider.

They can provide precise directions and help everyone find the acromantula.

There are only a few centaurs who are as stubborn as Margery. Facing a common natural enemy, the proud centaurs have to cooperate with wizards to a certain extent.

In fact, except for Hagrid, Harry, and Malfoy who were dissatisfied, everyone else showed enough enthusiasm and interest in this matter.

According to the plan, the Acromantula encirclement and suppression operation is in full swing.

Hogwarts wizards are divided into different groups according to their colleges and ages.

Under the leadership of the professor, they went to the Forbidden Forest to fight against the acromantula, killed the acromantia together, and brought the spoils back to Aiwen to exchange for Gallon.

Under the double stimulation of improving their strength and a considerable amount of gold coins, the little wizards burst out with unimaginable enthusiasm. This rare combat practice instantly became the most popular course in the school. Everyone fought acromantula, honed their skills and experimented with various spells on them.

In the end, even the students in Slytherin House were all looking forward to it.

You must know that Snape originally opposed Sirius' proposal to encircle and suppress the Acantara, but he scoffed at it and planned to support it.

But after Dumbledore announced his support, the entire Hogwarts took action to fight the acromantula, and Snape had to change his original intention and join the action.

As one of the team leaders, he is responsible for the safety of the students in Slytherin House.

On this basis, considering that the saliva and eyes of the giant spider are very valuable potion materials, Snape asked all the students of Slytherin House to hunt and kill the giant spider as much as possible, and collect the saliva and eyes, At the very least, they must surpass Gryffindor in quantity.

Comparing the exchange price with Ivan, Malfoy and several other students from the pure-blood family began to collect the eyes of the acromantula and gave more Galleons.

Because of this, no Slytherin handed over the spoils to Ivan.

The smell of gunpowder between the two colleges is obvious, and the comparison and competition between them are very fierce.

The number of hunted acromantulas also rose alternately, extremely stalemate, far exceeding the number hunted by Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw colleges.

Because of past conflicts, the honor of the college and many other reasons, Harry and Malfoy are now working hard.

The hostility between two people and two colleges reached its peak, and the whole school was full of gunpowder.

Not only because of the competition to encircle and suppress the acromantula, considering that this year's Quidditch Cup and the House Cup will be decided between the two houses of Gryffindor and Slytherin. The tension between the team and the two houses continued to escalate, and it had reached the point where it was on the verge of breaking out.

There were several small fights in the corridor, which eventually developed into villains.

As a result, a fourth-year Gryffindor and a sixth-year Slytherin ended up in the school hospital, both with leeks coming out of their ears.

Harry would rather have a fight with Malfoy and decide the winner.

However, the students of Slytherin House obviously didn't think so. They didn't intend to confront directly, but had their own plans, so Harry's life was particularly difficult.

On his way to class, there were always Slytherins sticking out their legs and tripping him to the ground, and Crabbe and Goyle would follow Harry wherever he went, disappointed to see Harry surrounded by people look, walked away listlessly.

Wood had given orders that Harry should be accompanied wherever he went, in case the Slytherins kept Harry out of the upcoming Quidditch final.

The whole Gryffindor house took up the challenge with such enthusiasm that Harry was always late for class because he was always surrounded by a lot of idle people.

This situation has continued, and even Ron has been affected. Because it is rare to be the focus like this, he is very happy.

Compared with the two of them, no one dared to harass Aiwen. Malfoy, who has not yet come out of the shadow of black magic, needless to say, after several other senior Slytherin students failed to provoke Ivan, his surroundings returned to the cleanliness of the past. To be continued.
