a certain scientific harry potter

"Didn't you say it all yourself, just raise a dragon." Harry winked and smiled, "Hagrid has been talking about it, saying that he really wants to raise a dragon~"

"My God! Doesn't he know that keeping dragons privately is against the law?!" Hermione was taken aback by Harry's guess.

If Hagrid really got hold of a fire dragon, then things would definitely be a big deal!

This is not like Harry's previous violation of school rules, which can be easily solved!

It was a fire dragon, a dangerous magical creature that was banned from private domestication by the Ministry of Magic! !

"Let's go and have a look together."

Speaking of fire dragons, Harry was actually quite interested. Of course, he was even more curious about how Hagrid would hatch eggs?

Will they be like those chicken mothers, lying motionless in their nests~

With such expectations, the Granger siblings knocked on the door of Hagrid's cabin an hour later.

"Why are you here?"

The wooden door was carefully inserted a crack, and after Hagrid confirmed that they were acquaintances, he cautiously let Harry and Hermione into the room.

"Hey, can't we come and see you if we have nothing to do?" Harry smiled maliciously, "You have covered the whole room airtight, let's find out if you are doing something shameful thing~"

"I...I didn't!!" Hearing Harry's sudden question, Hagrid suddenly became quite embarrassed.

"But we found your borrowing records in the library." Hermione cooperated quite well, "Would you like to hear what books you have borrowed? "Raising Dragons for Recreation and Profit" or something..."

"Okay, okay, I admit to the head office, right?" Hagrid made a bitter face helplessly, and pointed to the fireplace in the house, "That egg is there, you can go and see for yourself~"

Following the direction Hagrid pointed, the two of Hahe found a silent giant egg in the burning fire.

Of course, Harry had already determined the location of the egg when he first entered the room. After all, Hagrid couldn't hide the sound of magic on the dragon egg.

Hmm... very similar to the sound from Gringotts Underground, faint but quite bursting!

"Is this the fire dragon egg?" Hermione asked in surprise, "How did you get this thing?"

"Win~" Hagrid explained carelessly, "When I was drinking in Hogsmeade last night, a stranger with a hood lost to me in a game of cards. I think that person should also be eager to get rid of it."

Hogsmeade is a village near the school that is purely populated by wizards, and it is also the most popular place for Hogwarts people, but students are not allowed to go until the third grade, and they have to sign in advance Wait for the approval process.

Basically, this place is equivalent to a Diagon Alley near the school. There are all kinds of people, and it is not surprising to meet some special guys occasionally.

But Harry was still suspicious.

"Is that really the case?" Harry narrowed his eyes noncommittally. "As far as I know, privately raising dragons is indeed illegal, but it's not impossible to dispose of the dragon eggs before they hatch."

Looking at the entire Hogwarts, if there is anyone who knows more about magical animals besides Hagrid, the gamekeeper, and Professor Kettleburn, who is in the protection of magical animals, Harry can definitely be ranked first.

After all, he and Scamander have such a strong relationship that they are father and son friends~

Fire dragon eggs are listed as a Class A non-trade commodity in the subsidiary rules of Article 73 of the "International Federation of Wizards' Secrecy Act", and it is strictly forbidden to import or sell between countries. However, there are still many channels to deal with it in England .

Harry alone knew of three.

Let’s talk about the third method first, the method is actually just two words: Throw it away~

If a wizard really finds a dragon egg, he can throw it directly into the wilderness. There is nothing wrong with handling it this way, and no one will find fault afterwards.

But there are almost no wizards who do this, because dragon eggs are quite easy to cash in, no matter whether they are in the underworld or the white way.

If you want to exchange for more Gold Galleons, then go to Knockturn Alley to find a way, and you will definitely meet a large number of interested buyers.

If you are afraid of getting into trouble and don't want to go to a place where dragons and snakes mingle, you can also take a dragon egg to the Ministry of Magic.

Dangerous creatures like dragons, which are rated as the fifth level (the highest level), once threaten ordinary humans, the entire Ministry of Magic of the country will be held accountable by the International Federation of Wizards. Therefore, the Department of Magical Beast Control of the Ministry of Magic , will welcome the wizard to take the initiative to hand in the dragon egg.

Not only will they absolve the wizard of 'illegally carrying a dragon's egg', but they will also issue a reward as an encouragement.

Speaking of which, Scamander has witnessed similar incidents more than once. It was in 1918, when he was still working in the Ministry of Magic. According to the pricing more than 30 years ago, handing in a dragon egg would get [-] gold plus coins. Long's reward.

With Scamander's salary of two silver Sickles a week at that time and 30 Galleons, he had to save for five full years without food or drink!

At that time, he was really dreaming that he could pick up a dragon egg~

If it wasn't because he didn't pick it up, he wouldn't have changed his career to write a book┌|*′?｀|┘

So to sum up, the person Hagrid met was by no means unable to let go, but deliberately pushed the dragon egg to him! !

(Ps Don’t worry about the price of 30 Galleons, it’s just for the sake of the plot, above~)

Chapter 79 Hatching eggs is not easy

"So let's talk about it, what did you reveal to others?" Harry asked with raised eyebrows after sorting out the ins and outs of the matter.

"I, I didn't talk to him about anything..." Hagrid pulled his beard tangled, "I drank a few more drinks at the time, and mentioned Lu Wei through the stubble of the dragon egg... Oh, that three Head dog. As you know, creatures like that are rare to see, and the other party seems to be very interested, so I chatted a little bit, saying that Lu Wei would fall asleep when he listened to music..."

done~

Since Hagrid mentioned his three-headed dog, Harry can be sure that the person who handed the dragon egg to Hagrid must be Quirrell!

The Hogwarts teachers basically knew that Hagrid wanted to raise a dragon, and Quirrell used this to suit his preferences. It would not be too easy to break through Hagrid's pass.

However, Quirrell probably didn't expect that Harry behind Hagrid not only had a good understanding of magical animals, but also had an extraordinary understanding of legal provisions, so he easily locked his identity!

Speaking of it, Hagrid's mouth is actually very strict, and he has always kept in mind to keep the secret, but the premise is...he can't chat with others~

Once he chatted with someone, the key information would fly out of his mouth without knowing which sentence.

But this is actually nothing to worry about. Anyway, Richlow would have known it in the original book, and it's not bad now.

Harry was more interested in the dragon egg, and he had been listening to the little guy inside the egg screaming for a long time.

"This dragon egg... Hagrid, I'm not against you hatching, but there may be something wrong with your current method." After listening carefully, Harry shook his head.

"Is there a problem?" Hagrid scratched his head in doubt, "I'm following the method written in the book. I'm going to put the dragon eggs in the fire, because their mother will breathe on them..."

"That's the problem!" Harry put his hand on his forehead helplessly, "The mother of a fire dragon is naturally a fire dragon, and the breath they exhale is dragon's breath! Don't you think that a mere fireplace flame can be as good as an adult Fire dragons have the same firepower, right?"

Harry was [-]% sure that if Hagrid followed Hagrid's hatching method, this little dragon would definitely be congenitally deficient after hatching, and it might not be as good as other dragons of its kind when it grows up.

Of course, this is not what he said nonsense, but what he heard.

Harry had gotten used to the sound of magic power flowing recently. Although he couldn't actively respond to some magic items and creatures, he could basically discern what they wanted to express.

The sound of the dragon in the egg was intermittent, it kept sending Harry a signal...it was cold and hungry!

The flame temperature of the fireplace is not enough, and the magic power contained in it is not enough, it needs a flame with a higher temperature and more active magic power!

"This... If this is the case, what should we do?"

Hagrid lost his mind when he heard the words, and of course he wouldn't doubt Harry's words, so he couldn't help but be particularly worried now, for fear that the poor hatching environment here would delay the growth of the little dragon.

"Let me give it a try... The flames are blazing!!"

Harry raised his hand and waved his wand, and the flames in the fireplace shot up so high that they almost burned the beams of the cabin!

"Harry, be careful! Hagrid lives in a wooden house!" The busy Hermione screamed and reminded.

"I know."

Harry shook his wand slightly, and successfully changed the shape of the flame with his powerful control ability, turning it into a spiral fire snake surrounding the dragon egg.

hum~

Patterns like fire nets gradually appeared on the shell of the dragon egg wrapped in flames. It shook slightly, as if to express its gratitude to Harry.

"Really? That's great!!" Seeing this scene, Hagrid was so happy that he almost jumped up.

"That's not bad...Okay, I've decided!" Harry quickly had an idea, "From today on, I'll live here at night to help you hatch this dragon egg. Every day after class, I'll be the first Come back soon!"

Just now, Harry discovered a new way to improve his strength, which is to warm this dragon egg.

After using the Mirror of Erised to improve his strength and reached the bottleneck, Harry has been looking for ways to continue to improve.

According to the logic of general fantasy novels, the cycle of magic power release and magic power replenishment has been maintained. Even if the total amount of magic power cannot be increased, the magic power can definitely be purified.

So, in the current Hogwarts school, what else can consume more magic power than heating a dragon egg~

"Haha, this is really great!" Hagrid patted Harry on the shoulder excitedly, but almost knocked Harry to the ground.

"Come on, Hagrid, your strength is already comparable to that of a fire dragon!"

Harry rubbed his shoulders and complained, then sat cross-legged in front of the fireplace, and continued to release magic power to maintain the flames.

"Hehe, I was too excited just now~" Hagrid rubbed his nose foolishly, "Harry, it's really great of you to help. Now, you heat the dragon eggs here, and I'll go and prepare them for you." Things to eat!"

"So... what about me?" Looking at Harry and Hagrid, who had a clear division of labor, Hermione, who hadn't spoken for a long time, suddenly became confused, "One of you is in charge of incubating eggs, and the other is in charge of logistics, so what should I do? ?”

"You can help me with my homework~" Harry said with a playful smile.

"Go to hell!" Hermione gave Harry a gouged look, but she didn't actually refuse.

...

The wall clock of time swung again, and only after Harry officially started hatching the egg did he know how big the appetite of this unborn little guy was!

Harry has to go to class during the day, so the dragon egg can only be left in the fireplace by itself, but there is no shortage of fire that Harry should put on, and it has to be made up at night!

During this period, Hagrid also thought about taking over from Harry during the day, but he found that his magic control was far less refined than Harry's. He almost burned down the house several times, and he was so frightened that he didn't dare to continue trying.

And this made Harry have to release magic power to maintain the flames all night long, and then sleep soundly in the classroom after class during the day to replenish his body consumption.

In short, he could see that this little guy was hatched purely by drinking his own magic power, his own hard work, and Ravenclaw's academy!

What, you ask, what does this have to do with Ravenclaw?

Who knows how many times Harry was pulled by Professor McGonagall for sleeping in class, and how many times he was punished by Snape... He has even become so proficient that he can sleep standing up like Hedwig~

But hard work always pays off. Day and night training made Harry feel that his magic power was more solidified. The spells that Snape taught him before were a little obscure for him to use, but now he has fully mastered them.

At the same time, the flame pattern on the eggshell is also changing every day, and even when Harry keeps heating, it will keep flickering in conjunction with his magic power.

Finally, one morning, Harry, who was releasing his magic power, heard clearly...the roar of the young dragon coming from the egg!

It's about to crack!

(ps Huahuababy changed the picture to a vertical version, so that the horizontal picture will not be too small by the screen~)

Chapter 80 The decision to raise a dragon was crazy

"Did the little dragon hatch, let me see quickly!"

When Hermione received Hedwig's letter early in the morning, she even skipped the second class in the morning and hurried to Hagrid's hut.

"Not yet, but it's coming soon." Harry pointed to the giant egg that had been moved to the table, and there was a crack in the shell that was gradually widening.

"By the way, were you followed when you came?" Harry asked suddenly.

"Stalking... why are you asking this, I was in a hurry and didn't pay attention~" Hermione froze for a moment, not quite understanding what Harry meant.

"Let's talk about it after the dragon egg hatches."

Harry smiled mysteriously, but didn't say anything immediately.

There is a brat who has been coming to the hut to peep at the dragon eggs almost every night these days, do you really think he doesn't know?

"It should be hatching soon, right?"

Hagrid rubbed his hands excitedly, and three heads, one big, two small, moved closer to the table at the same time.

The dragon egg swayed slightly, and the sound of cracking and crackling came out continuously from the eggshell, it was that the little dragon was biting to break the confinement.

Soon...they'll be able to see it.

The three people in the room held their breath at the same time, not even daring to take a breath.

However, when there was a harsh scratching sound from the eggshell, Hagrid, who was always allergic to cat fur, couldn't hold back all of a sudden, and sneezed loudly!

"Ahhhhh!!"

Hagrid's body shook violently, and the hand on Harry's shoulder subconsciously pushed forward, directly pressing Harry firmly on the table.

At the same time, the little dragon who came out after a long wait also completely broke his shell.
