Hogwarts starts with stealing power.

The young wizard couldn't help but let out a cry of surprise when he saw the Hippogriff spread its twelve-foot-long wings and carry Harry quickly into the air.

Harry felt that this was completely different from the feeling of riding a broomstick, and he didn't know which one he preferred.

He looked down and saw that the little wizards on the ground turned into small black dots and soon disappeared.

on the ground.

The little wizards all looked at Harry with envy as he kept moving away.

"Is Harry particularly popular with magical creatures?"

"How can one fly like him, carried by a hippogriff?"

"Professor Hagrid, can we also get the same recognition as Harry?"

Inspired by Harry, all the little wizards became excited and were very active in interacting with the Hippogriff, not afraid at all.

It was the first time that Hagrid was surrounded by so many wizards. He couldn't help but say:

“Yes, as long as you are sincere enough, you can enjoy the same treatment as Harry!

Although the Hippogriff looks ferocious, it is very disciplined. You must make it feel your sincerity, and then it will respond with sincerity."

However, not all little wizards have smooth sailing.

Although the enthusiasm of the little wizards has been aroused, some of them still can't help getting nervous and their brains go blank when looking at the Hippogriff.

No matter what Hagrid said in his ear, they seemed to be unable to hear it, and these little wizards were naturally attacked by the Hippogriff.

Fortunately, these attacks were blocked by Hermione, Lin Xia and Draco's [Armor Protection].

[Armor Protection] This defensive spell is a mid-to-high level spell. It is difficult to use, but it is very practical.

It can resist almost all offensive spells, except for black magic.

Under the protection of the three little wizards, Hagrid's first Care of Magical Creatures class passed safely.

No wizard was injured, and because of Harry's experience of flying, the other young wizards were very interested in this course.

Those little wizards who have not taken this course yet are already looking forward to taking it.

Some other little wizards who were not assigned to Hagrid could not help but regret why their professor was not as bold as Professor Hagrid.

They also want to see the Hippogriff!!

After the class, Hagrid suddenly said, "Lin Xia, wait a moment, I have something to tell you."

Harry and the others looked at each other and decided to wait with Lin Xia.

But Hagrid's attitude was firm, "You all go back first, only Lin Xia can know about this!"

It would have been fine if he didn't say it, but now that he said it, it makes people even more curious.

Harry, Ron, Hermione and Draco returned to the castle together, all wondering why Hagrid kept her.

Ron said, "I think Hagrid wants Lin Xia to be the class representative for Care of Magical Creatures. This class is too dangerous and difficult. We need a little wizard who can take charge of the class to maintain order during breaks!"

Hermione had a different opinion.

“What you said makes sense, but besides Lin Xia, Draco and I can also use armor to protect ourselves.

If we really have to choose class representatives, we might as well choose all three of us. And I see that Hagrid looks very happy. He must have something good to share with Lin Xia."

Harry thought of another thing, "Why not discuss magical creatures with Lin Xia?
Don't forget, Lin Xia went to Romania during the summer vacation. There is a dragon farm there, and Hagrid's Norbert, the Norwegian Ridgeback, is raised in the dragon farm!"

Draco looked at Harry and said in agreement: "I think your guess makes the most sense!"

In fact, it was just as Harry expected.

Hagrid kept Lin Xia because he wanted to discuss magical creatures with her.

But it's not just about discussing Norbert.

Hagrid first asked Lin Xia about Norbert's condition, whether he was well dressed and well fed, and whether he was growing up healthily.

Lin Xia took out the collar that Norbert had worn from the traceless retractable ring, and also took out a dragon's tooth.

"This is all Norbert's... Before I left, Norbert asked me to give it to you. I can see that he misses you very much."

Lin Xia thought of something and her eyes lit up.

"By the way, I have something else to give you."

She held out a piece of silk, a very soft fabric, and Hagrid took it carefully.

He opened it and found a dragon's claw mark inside!

Hagrid said excitedly, "Why does the shape of this paw print look so familiar? It must be Norbert's paw print, right?

It has grown so big, I kept all its paw prints from when it was small to when it was big, and this is the biggest one!"

There was a twinkle in Hagrid's eyes.

While crying, he found Norbert's paw prints from childhood to adulthood and put them together.

He looked at Lin Xia while crying: "Nobel is not having a good time in the fire dragon breeding farm. I can smell a bloody smell from it. This claw mark was printed with blood.

Oh, my poor Norbert, what has he been up to without his mother?

Lin Xia was slightly embarrassed.

The contrast of seeing such a giant crying in front of her was too great.

She said quickly, "No, Hagrid, you misunderstood. Norbert lives very well there. He has received professional training. He has different training every month and has to fight against other dragons.

I heard from Norbert's keeper that Norbert was a very ferocious dragon and very combative. He would be covered in wounds after every fight.

But each time new skin grows, it becomes tougher than the previous one, and the scales become harder and harder.

You know, dragons can never grow in a greenhouse, they must go through the baptism of blood and fire, so this bloody paw print is the trophy that Norbert asked me to bring to you."

Hearing this, Hagrid was even more moved, and tears flowed out like a dam breaking.

"My Norbert has made it big. Mom misses you. During the next vacation, Mom will definitely go to Romania to see you..."

Lin Xia thought that Hagrid kept her just to talk about Norbert.

Now that the gift has been delivered, it's time for her to leave.

But unexpectedly, Hagrid stopped her and mentioned another matter to her.

As Hagrid walked away, he said to her, "Do you remember the lion and tiger breeding technology you brought to Hogwarts?"

Lions and tigers have extremely high magic resistance.

It can fly in the sky and has claws as sharp as a dragon, capable of tearing apart anything that stands in its way. Lin Xia's eyes lit up, "I still remember, could it be——"

Hagrid smiled and said, "Yes, after Professor McGonagall got this technology, she applied to the higher authorities and the school decided to send me to study lions and tigers. After a semester of research, I have made some progress and bred two lions."

He took Lin Xia to a small wooden door.

The wooden door is only the size of a window, square, 50 centimeters long and wide.

This wooden door was embedded in the ground. Hagrid opened the door. Lin Xia looked down and saw a narrow staircase below.

Hagrid put his foot into the stairs with great difficulty and witnessed a magical scene -

That staircase swallowed Hagrid up on its own!
In Lin Xia's eyes, Hagrid seemed to be trapped in darkness.

Then she couldn't see anything.

Just a moment later, Hagrid's voice came from the stairs: "Lin Xia, come down quickly!"

Lin Xia no longer hesitated and stepped onto the stairs.

After a while, her vision became clear, and the bright light told her that all this was real, not false.

What appeared before her was a huge and wide pasture!

It was as if she had come to a real world, and she suddenly went from the lush forbidden forest to another place.

There are many lions and tigers in this area, and occasionally other creatures, but the number is too small.

Those lions and tigers are all very vigorous and seem to be living a comfortable life. They are all fat and strong.

Hagrid led out two lions and tigers.

Lin Xia saw that they had all the advantages of lions and tigers, and they also had wings growing on their backs. The wings looked soft, but were actually as hard as steel!
Hagrid said excitedly: "It's incredible, lions and tigers are just ordinary animals, but through the lion-tiger breeding method, such excellent magical creatures can be bred!
I have gone through a series of tests, and these two lions are incredibly powerful. As long as they are used properly, they are equivalent to a high-level wizard!"

Lin Xia's expression changed at this moment.

Only senior wizards in the wizarding world will understand the value of high-level wizards.

There must be differences among every high-level wizard.

But those who can be called high-level wizards must have made amazing discoveries in some field.

The four headmasters of Hogwarts are senior wizards, and every professor in the school is also a senior wizard!

A lion or tiger is equivalent to a high-level wizard, which means they are a powerful fighter. As magical creatures, they are obviously more loyal than humans!

Lin Xia couldn't help but ask, "Compared to the lion-tiger and the hippogriff, which one is more powerful?"

Hagrid shook his head quickly, "No, there's no comparison. What I mean is that a hippogriff can't beat a lion or a tiger. Don't underestimate the characteristics of a dragon.

The lion and tiger have acquired a little bit of the dragon's characteristics, and they are already invincible among all the magical creatures!"

Hagrid winked at her and smiled. "Although I have only bred two, I have already applied to the school. One of them will be your pet, and you will raise it alone."

He pointed at one of the lions and tigers and said, "Come on, I have already picked the best one for you. This one was bred with the best materials, and you are obviously its destined owner. It has no objection to seeing you.

You may not know that these two lions and tigers have been bred during the summer vacation. They have seen many big people, but none of them have been so docile in front of you. "

Lin Xia couldn't help but walk towards the lion and tiger he was pointing at.

The lion-tiger immediately prostrated itself, inviting her to climb on top.

Lin Xia did what it wanted.

After a while, the lion and tiger took off into the air, carrying Lin Xia and flying around the area for several circles, letting out exciting and powerful roars!

Hagrid looked at this scene with relief, "I knew that they would never betray you from the moment they were born. They recognize the owner who brought out this technology!"

This was the first time Lin Xia heard such a statement.

Although this lion-tiger got along well with her, the other lion-tiger did not reject her approach and leaned its huge head towards her, wanting her to pet it.

Lin Xia groaned and said, "If these lions and tigers all approve of me, it won't be a good thing for Hogwarts."

Hagrid shrugged. "I don't know about that. I just cultivated it according to the method you gave me."

Lin Xia suddenly smiled, "This is also good. If one day I face a very powerful enemy, at least those enemies can't use the technology I brought to threaten me."

"By the way, there is something that should interest you."

Hagrid grinned and said, "The moment the lion and tiger were bred, Professor Snape came over to check them out. He wanted to take one back for research."

"I know what he's thinking. I know the look in his eyes very well. He doesn't want to do research. He just wants to dissect it and see...

Fortunately, the lions and tigers ignored him. He tried to force his way closer, but was ferociously pushed back by the lions and tigers! "

Lin Xia smiled elegantly and said, "You should record this scene. Harry and Ron will be very happy when they see it."

Lin Xia left happily.

She did not take her lions and tigers away, but left them with Hagrid for training.

These lions and tigers may look strong, but they are actually still in their larval stages and have not fully grown up. The external environment may make them vulnerable.

Lin Xia only needs to bring some delicious snacks to visit the lions and tigers from time to time.

Hagrid specifically said: “If you can bring the flesh and blood of very powerful magical creatures, it will be better for the growth of lions and tigers.

It is said that in the past every lion and tiger would follow their master, fight everywhere from a young age, consume a lot of powerful blood and flesh, and then become stronger.

It is precisely because of this that the abilities of each lion and tiger when they grow up are different, but even if they grow at the most ordinary level, they are still very powerful. "

Lin Xia kept this information in mind and will pay more attention to it.

After leaving the vast pasture, Lin Xia also put forward his own suggestions to Hagrid.

"Hagrid, your idea of ​​finding magical creatures and teaching them to us is very good, but safety is difficult to guarantee."

Seeing Hagrid flinching, Lin Xia quickly said, "It's not that your teaching method is bad. In fact, it's common for little wizards to faint and get injured in class. You know our Dean Sprout, right?

She only teaches a very gentle Herbology class, but there are little wizards who get hurt in every class, but this does not affect her teaching of Herbology well, do you understand what I mean?"

A thoughtful look flashed across Hagrid's eyes.

Lin Xia said confidently: "So, I think you must learn how to protect yourself with armor as soon as possible.

This spell is somewhat complicated and only a few wizards can master it. You can't always find a wizard who can do it.

And even if you know how to do it, you may not always be successful. It is better for you to learn it yourself so that you can protect your students.

Hagrid, you are an adult wizard, your magic power is stronger than that of a little wizard, I believe you can do it!"

Hagrid nodded very carefully. (End of this chapter)
