Harry Potter and the Attack of the Squibs - Chapter 751
c92 Fire plan
Professor McGonagall looked at Lu Ke and sighed: “If you rush to the front, how will the house elf find you?”
Lu Ke was stunned for a moment.
This is a serious question, a little more serious than all the previous ones.
Lu Ke shook his head helplessly: “I will come back when needed.”
Professor McGonagall didn’t say anything, just stared at him seriously.
Lu Ke could only turn his eyes helplessly.
He couldn’t convince Professor McGonagall at this time, because she was right.
Just then, Dobby suddenly appeared.
“Lu Ke! Hagrid needs help!”
Lu Ke was a little surprised, because the chef and Carrot exceeded Lu Ke’s expectations. They cleverly thought that all house elves can be messengers, not just themselves.
As for the trouble on Hagrid’s side, Lu Ke knew exactly what it would be.
“take me.”
As he spoke, Lu Ke reached out and grabbed Dobby’s shoulders, and then he apparated and appeared in the Forbidden Forest.
This is deep in the Forbidden Forest, next to the giant spiders’ lair.
Not far away, Hagrid was running away in embarrassment, but there were already many giant spiders surrounding him. The most terrifying thing was that Hagrid was already covered with spider silk, so it was difficult for him to move and he would fall sooner or later. Among giant spiders.
Lu Ke sighed helplessly.
The only explanation for Luna and the Centaur not being here is that Hagrid’s kindness towards magical animals broke out and he was preparing to persuade the giant spider to give up supporting the Death Eaters alone.
It’s just that Aragog is dead, and the giant spider will no longer regard Hagrid as a friend, and even wants to make him lunch.
Lu Ke looked down at Dobby: “You should be able to pull Hagrid out of the cobweb, right?”
Dobby nodded without hesitation: “Of course!”
As for why he didn’t do this but ran to Lu Ke for help, of course it was because Hagrid shouted “Help” as soon as he saw him.
But Lu Ke didn’t care, and Hagrid couldn’t care less now.
Dobby raised his right hand casually, and then Hagrid flew up out of thin air. The cobwebs on his body were torn off by the powerful force, and even took away a strand of Hagrid’s beard, causing him to let out a painful roar.
At this time, Lu Ke rose into the sky.
He stretched his arms in the air, turned into a huge fire dragon, and opened his mouth to the ground without hesitation.
A terrifying flame fell from the sky and landed on the spider web, leaving a scorch of blackness.
This was just the beginning. The flames spread on the spider webs and went straight to the caves on the ground.
In the Forbidden Forest, this is a place that looks a bit abnormal. There are big holes everywhere on the ground, and few tall trees grow. That’s because giant spiders live here and dig complicated burrows underneath.
The flames of the fire dragon ignited the spider webs and scattered trees, but the flames quickly swept through everything on the ground, and finally could only spread underground along the spider webs.
For the giant spider, this is a disaster.
In order to hunt, they covered the underground passages with spider silk everywhere. As a result, it became fuel for the flames to spread, leaving the giant spiders with nowhere to escape.
Although the spider silk will burn out soon, but before that, the giant spiders can’t hide underground.
And Lu Ke in the sky was obviously not prepared to let go of any giant spider.
The huge fire dragon flew through the sky, and the violent wind flapping its wings was followed by terrifying flames. The giant spiders had no power to resist, struggling in the flames, and finally turned into charcoal.
There were also giant spiders who were unwilling to give up and wanted to escape, but the centaurs outside did not let any fish slip through the net.
Finally, in the scorched blackness, no giant spider was still active.
Lu Ke dismissed the Animagus and landed in front of Hagrid.
“Aragog is long dead. They don’t want you as a friend, Hagrid.”
Hagrid’s face was filled with sadness: “Yes…if it was still there…it’s a pity that not a single one of them is left…”
Lu Ke shook his head: “Not only are there survivors of giant spiders, but there are also a lot of them. Don’t think that the spider webs in the underground cave are enough to burn them to death. Those giant spiders are just scared out of their wits and dare not come out for the time being.”
Hagrid looked surprised: “Really?”
Lu Ke nodded helplessly: “You are like this. No one would have thought that just now you were almost eaten by a giant spider.”
After speaking, Lu Ke turned around and greeted the centaurs: “Long time no see. Luna didn’t cause you too much trouble, right?”
There was a soft laugh among the centaurs.
“Of course she does, I’ve never seen a wizard like this.”
The centaur shook his head: “But who makes her a friend?”
Lu Ke smiled and nodded: “That’s good.”
“By the way, are the Death Eaters coming?”
The centaur shook his head: “Not yet.”
Lu Ke was a little surprised. According to time calculation, the Death Eaters should have arrived by now.
Voldemort has been lurking in the Forbidden Forest for a long time. He must know about the powerful helpers such as giant spiders. Now that the battle is about to begin, there is no way Voldemort will not contact them.
Just when Lu Ke was thinking this, a horseman rushed over.
“Death Eaters!”
Lu Ke nodded, then raised his right hand: “You all go to the castle to help, and leave this place to me.”
After saying that, he walked alone in the direction where the Death Eaters came from.
The centaur nodded, then raised the long bow in his hand: “War!”
The other centaurs shouted and followed.
Hagrid followed reluctantly.
But Luna was the easiest. A centaur directly pulled her up and put her on his back.
“There won’t be a next time.”
Luna smiled and nodded.
…
Lu Ke came to an open space between the Forbidden Forest alone, where a Death Eater was standing there hesitating.
He heard the clatter of centaurs’ hooves, which was a bit scary, but he still needed to think about which one was scarier than Voldemort.
But the Death Eater’s thoughts soon ended.
Because Lu Ke appeared in front of him.
“Hello.”
The Death Eater wanted to turn and run, but he knew he couldn’t.
“you……”
The Death Eaters’ voices trembled as they spoke.
Lu Ke just looked at him and smiled: “Go back and tell Voldemort that I will wait for him at the gate of Hogwarts. Even if he loses, I will let all the Death Eaters go and let bygones be bygones.”
The Death Eaters nodded quickly.
No matter what Lu Ke said, it was right to nod at this time. As long as he could survive, it didn’t matter what he said. Besides, as long as he escaped Lu Ke’s clutches, it was not his decision whether to say this or not.
Lu Ke didn’t seem to see the Death Eaters’ thoughts at all. He waved his hand casually: “Go, don’t think about looking for the giant spider.”
“I burned them all to death.”
The Death Eaters were horrified.
But he couldn’t think anymore, and the Death Eater turned and ran away.
Lu Ke followed him slowly and far away until he left the edge of the Forbidden Forest.
