The Wizarding Journey of Hogwarts

Chapter 69 Accidentally Missed a Billion
Busy time always flies by.Bell is busy learning magic knowledge and conducting magic experiments every day.

On the second day after the Easter holiday ended, Hermione found him out of the blue and asked Bell to review with her, especially the contents of History of Magic and Defense Against the Dark Arts.Because the exam is coming soon, it will be too late if you don't study hard.

"Hermione, if I remember correctly, our exam is at the end of June, right?"

"Yes."

"But it's only the beginning of April, right? There are still more than two months to go, so you don't need to be so anxious."

Although Bell didn't know what day it was, it was definitely in April.

Looking at the tense little witch with a serious face, Bell felt that she was putting too much pressure on him, which was not good.

"The weather is nice today, and the temperature is very comfortable. Why don't we go for a walk by the Black Lake to relax?"

"No! Bell, two months is not a long time! I still feel like it was yesterday when I came to Hogwarts, but in fact it has been more than half a year. So if you don't take the time to review now , you will find that the exam is coming tomorrow, and you haven't reviewed anything!"

Hermione stared at Bell seriously, clearly not going to accept his offer.

"And you have never listened to History of Magic and Defense Against the Dark Arts! If you want to get a good grade at the end of the semester, you have to start reviewing earlier!"

After speaking, Hermione dragged him to the library without waiting for Bell's rebuttal.

In fact, Bell really wants to say that even if he doesn't review anything, he doesn't need to worry about the exam at all, and he doesn't care about his grades.But in order not to irritate the nervous little witch, Bell obediently shut up.

……

The content of the first-year courses is not difficult for Bell.But just like many middle-aged people in their 4s and 50s who don't know how to do elementary school math problems, they haven't been exposed to it for a long time, and they don't know how to answer very simple problems.

With this in mind, Bell thought it would be a good idea to review before the exam, at least it would save you a lot of brainpower during the written exam.As for whether to review now or review after 2 months, there is actually no difference.So Bell let Hermione drag him to the library.

After reading books in the library for a while, a burly man who was a bit out of class sneaked into the library.

At Hogwarts, the only person with such a physique was undoubtedly the Keykeeper and Gamekeeper Rubeus Hagrid.

Bell had never had any contact with Hagrid. Although he didn't hate Hagrid's kindness, he didn't like talking nonsense with people with bad brains either.As for the fact that he has never been in contact with it, how can he know that Hagrid's brain is not good?You can tell by the way he looks now.

Come on, Hagrid is about 3 meters tall, his head is almost touching the ceiling when he stands there, he looks so sneaky now, so he doesn't want people to notice him?Or do you want to attract the attention of others?

"Hagrid? Why did he come to the library? He's acting furtive. What's he trying to do?"

Apparently Hermione was also attracted to Hagrid.So Bell said that his appearance was more suspicious.

Hermione was not familiar with Hagrid. After all, no one would dare to approach a 3-meter-tall giant casually, let alone a group of young wizards.You must know that the giant monster is only this tall, so if you approach it casually, what if you get eaten?
"Who knows? Never mind."

Bell shrugged casually.

He had a vague impression of this, but even after searching his memory with Legilimency, he couldn't find any relevant content.

Bell couldn't figure out why. Logically speaking, if he has an impression, it means that he should have seen the relevant content before, so if he uses Legilimency, he should be able to find the corresponding memory.

But Bell has searched his memories of his previous life several times, and he has reviewed all the few memories that can be found that are related to "Harry Potter".But he still often has a subtle sense of familiarity with some pictures that he does not remember.

Perhaps there are many areas about memory that wizards don't understand.

If Belle had checked the titles of the books Hagrid had borrowed, he would have regretted his indifference.

Because those books are all about dragons, including "Dragon Species in Britain and Ireland", "From Dragon Eggs to Hell" and "A Guide to Raising Dragons".

Seeing these titles, it is not difficult to think that Hagrid wants to raise a fire dragon, and even he is raising a fire dragon.

It is illegal to keep fire dragons privately. Because of the dangerous and difficult to tame characteristics of fire dragons, at the wizarding conference in 1709, a bill prohibiting the raising of fire dragons was officially passed.So even though Bell had already raised a Bi An who was no less dangerous than a fire dragon, he never thought of raising a fire dragon.

But this does not affect his interest in fire dragons.Although his family has opened several dragon farms in recent years, and Bell has seen or used many parts from fire dragons, he has never seen a live fire dragon.

If he knew that Hagrid had a dragon egg in his hand, maybe he could use a little innocuous trick to get it for fun?

As a Chinese native in my previous life, my love for dragons is unquestionable, after all, the descendants of dragons.

Of course, at the beginning, Bell looked down on these so-called fire dragons a little, thinking that they were lizards with wings, and compared with dragons and the like, they were too much.

But after a detailed investigation of the "dragon" information, Bell found that perhaps the western dragon and the eastern dragon have the same ancestor - Yinglong.

In the myths and legends of the Hua Kingdom, Yinglong is a winged creation dragon god, also known as the "ancestral dragon".The image of Yinglong is very similar to the combination of western dragon and eastern dragon.

Therefore, Bell speculates that Yinglong should be a powerful magical animal that once existed in the East.Over time, perhaps influenced by shifting continental plates?Some of the Yinglongs who migrated to the west evolved into giant dragons, while the Yinglongs who stayed in the east evolved into divine dragons.After that until modern times, the giant dragon evolved into a fire dragon, and the divine dragon evolved into a sea jellyfish.

A powerful creature does not mean that it is suitable for survival, because the stronger the creature, the fewer the number of offspring and the longer the growth time.It is easy for some accidents to lead to generational gaps.

Just like in nature, the most tenacious vitality and the largest population are always weak insects.However, some powerful animals, such as lions, tigers, elephants, giant whales, etc., are more likely to face the crisis of extinction.

Therefore, it is very important for the survival of the species to properly reduce the average power of the race and find the balance between power and quantity.

Of course, all of this is Bell's speculation, and only God knows the truth.

In any case, because of Bell's irrelevant character, he missed the opportunity to get an SSR... ahem, a rare fire dragon cub.
