Harry Potter and the Secret Treasure

As for the students of Gryffindor College, Ivan, Harry, Ron, and Hermione were directly surrounded for questioning.

Seeing their excited appearance, Ivan doubted that these guys didn't know what an acromant was. They completely underestimated the danger of this dark creature, as if they thought that an acromant was just an ordinary spider.

The enthusiasm continued, and the number of applicants in the end far exceeded expectations. Even the students of Slytherin House, which had always opposed Sirius, all signed up.

By the end, even Dumbledore was alarmed.Facing the unprecedented enthusiasm of the little wizards, Dumbledore did not stop this matter, but designed safer protection measures based on Sirius' original plan.

Now, not just Sirius, almost all professors will participate in the encirclement and suppression of the Acantaraman throughout the entire process to protect the safety of the students.

The action time is scheduled at noon every day, when the Acrysophus is weakest, and the scope is strictly demarcated, and no one is allowed to enter the deeper forbidden forest at will.

Due to the large number of people, the encirclement and suppression of the acromantula will be divided into four colleges, and they will fight these monsters under the protection of the professor.

Malfoy was furious at this decision.

He seems to be planning to use this opportunity to take revenge on Ivan and Harry for what made him lose face before.

In fact, Harry was also very upset. He still remembered that Malfoy pretended to be a dementor to scare him, and he originally planned to take this opportunity to take revenge.

However, neither of them has this opportunity now.

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, Hagrid likes things, three-headed dogs, dragons, hippogriffs, acromantia..." Ron complained, "he thinks these monsters are friend 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 the 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 increased 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 vicious incidents.

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 outcome.

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.

Chapter 282 The First Action

In this environment, the little wizards all put in their best efforts.

The encirclement and suppression of the acromantula is no longer just about personal honors such as improving personal combat strength and experience, but has risen to competition between colleges.

Everyone was unwilling to admit defeat, especially the students of Gryffindor and Slytherin.

Led by their respective college professors and other teaching professors, they went to the outside of the Forbidden Forest to fight the Acantaraman as planned.

Aiwen still remembers that his first action was on the first Friday afternoon in February.

In that operation, the second and third grade Gryffindor students were divided into groups, and everyone gathered together excitedly, led by Sirius to the Forbidden Forest.

Contrary to the impatient little wizards, Ron looked very nervous.

He still hasn't recovered from the horror. Spiders are what he fears the most, not to mention the acromantula, which is magnified several times in size, is simply a nightmare.

Hermione was as nervous as Ron. She hoped to gain more knowledge about fighting the acromantula from the book, but it was a waste of effort.

This is not something she reads and remembers by heart, it's not like she hasn't tried it.

While having breakfast on Friday, she began to keep chanting to Ivan what she had seen from books such as "Where are the Fantastic Beasts", "Common Fighting Skills", "Two Hundred Common Ways to Deal with Dangerous Fantastic Beasts" and so on. The content annoyed Ivan enough.

He hoped to reassure Hermione, but it didn't do much.Hermione flipped through the spellbooks distractedly, and after discovering that she was sharing the experiences in the books, Neville and Colin listened intently to every word she said.

They eagerly hope to hear some useful knowledge, so that they will not be so flustered in the upcoming battle.

People did know a lot from her, but the others were pretty happy when Hermione's speech was interrupted by the arrival of the owl mail.

At two o'clock that afternoon, Ivan, Harry, Ron, Hermione, Colin, Ginny and other little wizards of Gryffindor in the second and third years left the castle, and they crossed the gate in front of the oak gate. venue, hurried into the Forbidden Forest.

It was a clear, breezy day, and the tall black trees and green sprouts that had just emerged in the Forbidden Forest swayed and rattled in the wind, with no end in sight.Everyone stared closely at Sirius in front of the team, their expressions were both nervous and excited.

"A few days ago, I led the senior students to fight the giant arachnid." Sirius raised his wand and said loudly, "Remember, these creatures are very dangerous and they are extremely aggressive. We You must be vigilant!"

"I knew it!" Ron murmured palely, "ask us to fight the acromantula, those crazy centaurs..."

"But you don't have to worry too much. There are not many acromantids outside the Forbidden Forest, and they are not very huge." The end of Sirius' wand glowed white. He waved his wand and continued, "As long as Follow my orders and nothing will happen."

"What should we do, Professor Black?" Neville asked tremblingly.

"It's very simple, first find a lone acromantula, and I will show you several spells that are very useful for them." Sirius said, "Then you will be divided into different groups, and you will be in the nearby woods. Fight the giant acromantula you encounter. Remember not to act alone, or go too far, go deep into the forbidden forest, and if you encounter any accidents, you can use your magic wand to send a signal to the sky, and I will rush there as soon as possible."

"Sounds really simple..."

"Be careful!" Hermione said sharply, "According to the records in the book "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them", acromantulas are good at lurking, they will quietly hide in the shadows of trees, and they will attack the passing prey. Launch an attack, or pop out of nowhere while you're not looking."

Hearing her words, everyone hurried away from the tall tree trunks around them.

The little wizards huddled in the narrow bushes, clinging tightly to each other, guarding each other.

Holding up their wands, they raised their heads and looked suspiciously at the surrounding treetops, as if an acromantula would come out to attack soon.

Neville tripped over the vines on the ground because he didn't pay attention to his feet.

The sudden accident caused everyone to fall into inexplicable panic, and the atmosphere became more and more tense.

Seeing that Hermione wanted to continue, Ivan hurried over and whispered, "Don't be so nervous, Hermione! As long as I'm here, you won't be in danger!"

"I'm not nervous, I'm just not ready yet..." Hermione whispered, feeling Aiwen's breath and caring tone, her face turned slightly red.

"These monsters are very dangerous, and no one can guarantee that they are ready." Ron glanced at Ivan and Hermione, and continued, "Being careful will never make a mistake. Who knows if these monsters will..."

"You should be braver and treat them as ordinary spiders." Harry pointed to Ginny not far away, "Look at Ginny, she's not as nervous as you are."

Ginny didn't look around like the others, but pulled Colin and asked Sirius, who was at the front of the team, some details related to the battle with the acromantula.

"She was very courageous from the beginning!" Ron looked away from Ginny, looked at Ivan and Hermione again, and then looked around the tall trees uneasily like the others, muttering in a low voice, "I've never seen her have anything to be afraid of."

After a few more minutes, after a short period of confusion, everyone gradually calmed down.

They followed Sirius and continued to go deep into the woods. After walking for about 5 minutes, they encountered a single acromantula behind a big tree with dense branches.

It has just come out of the nest and is ready to hunt for prey in the nearby woods.

After seeing Sirius and the mighty group of little wizards behind him, the acromantula was obviously stunned for a moment, then turned around quickly and wanted to escape.

But Sirius didn't give it a chance, and directly used the petrification spell to petrify it.

Then, he took this giant eight-eyed spider as an example, and explained to the little wizards every weakness of this creature in detail, and introduced several very practical spells.

After the explanation, Sirius lifted the magic on the acromantula.

Under his care, the little wizards stepped forward in turn.Everyone took turns casting the newly learned spell on the acromantula, trying to overcome their fear of the creature.

Under the attack, the acromantula's body was covered with scars. It made high-density clicks, clicks that made the scalp tingling, and its body trembled constantly, trying to escape.

But it was a waste of effort, and every time it showed its intention to run away, a red light shone from the end of Sirius' wand, forcing it back to the center again.

Chapter 283 Practical Practice and Aiwen's Curse

In the woods, the little wizards formed a large circle, and they took turns to use the magic spell they had just learned on the acromantula in the center to attack it.

Everyone was chattering, and Sirius would also comment on everyone's performance and give better suggestions.

This level of practice is indeed a bit too simple for someone like Aiwen who has fought hundreds of giant acromants and faced Aragog.

However, it is really suitable for other young wizards, helping them master the spells and overcome their lack of courage in the face of such dangerous creatures.

Looking at the ugly acromantula, waving its eight slender, furry spider legs around, and opening and closing its huge, sharp black claws from time to time, many little wizards, out of fear, even Couldn't even recite the full spell.

The few spells that were successfully completed were either avoided by the acromantula, or did not have the expected effect at all.

Everyone's actual combat performance was very poor, it was simply appalling.

Ai Wen suspected that if it wasn't for the strength of Sirius, this giant eight-eyed spider alone would be enough to solve the dozens of little wizards present.

Only Harry's performance was considered outstanding. His comprehension ability was very strong, and he was the first to overcome his fear of the acromant.He successfully cast the petrification spell, slowing down the opponent, and then followed up with a crushing spell, which directly broke one of its legs.

This wonderful combination of spell attacks won warm applause from everyone and high praise from Sirius, who added twenty points to Harry.

Seeing Harry's wonderful performance, the other young wizards gradually mustered up their courage.

They attacked according to Sirius' instructions, and the scars on the acromantula's body became more and more, and the clicking and clicking sounds became more and more intensive.

It wriggled restlessly, scurrying around in the circle.
