Chapter 262 It Comes From Hell
"Hey? Wait, is it mine?"
Elena glanced at the small blue flame in her palm, feeling the faint connection to the three-headed dog Lu Wei, and repeated incredulously: that is the power of the first Dark Lord, the gifts given to people are directly stolen.
And a three-headed dog is too generous and high-level.
Dogs are the oldest domestic animals of human beings, there is no doubt about that.
In the records of the non-magical world, historians have speculated that the oldest origins of dogs can be traced back to even 31,700 years, based on prehistoric fossil bones unearthed in Goyet Cave in Belgium.
Even by the most conservative estimate, dogs formally joined human social relationships over 14,000 years ago, and this record will advance more than half of the time in the literature of the magical world.
This is a contract that is much longer and older than any other creature in the world.
For a long time, dogs have been an extremely important combat partner, a hunting assistant, a daily companion... and a source of food when necessary, just like the attitude of the East towards livestock, people have to help themselves to fill their stomachs. Friends, there will always be plenty of friendship and tolerance.
"Why don't you like it?"
Grindelwald raised his eyebrows, looked around the fluffy white hair, and asked in his characteristic slightly elevated tone.
In his opinion, pets like this furry and voluminous one should be more popular among little girls.
Is it... because it looks too ugly?
Grindelwald thought and looked at the large dog crouched in the corner, the tip of the wand in his hand rolling undecidedly between his knuckles: perhaps Elena would prefer a velvet, or sniff at the little things that look cute?
"It's just... an accident."
Elena gently shook her head and looked at the three-headed dog in front of her with interest, her eyes full of surprises.
As the first magical creature to appear in the entire "Harry Potter" series, although the three-headed Lu Wei did not have many scenes in the original story, there was no specific account of where it went after the first grade. That being said, it is definitely no less than Dumbledore's Fox Phoenix.
In Elena's opinion, keeping the rare three-headed dog in a narrow corridor as a high-level guard is like a tyrannical thing that confines the fire dragon that should be flying over the dome in the underground vault: a wild land full of life. And the jungle is the best place for the three-headed dog to hunt and live.
Seeing the joy in the girl's eyes, Grindelwald breathed a sigh of relief and gave a tap on the "little granddaughter's" shoulder.
"Are you going to see? Don't be afraid, I'm here."
Despite the magical chains, theoretically, there should not be too many accidents, but the tip of Grindelwald's wand in his hand still accurately pointed at the three-headed dog, ready to respond.
Elena nodded and carefully walked towards the large dog crouched in the corner licking its left paw.
"Uh ~ Wang ~"
Realizing the approach of the little witch, Lu Wei, who had been stuck to the wall, couldn't help but tremble, a little panic reflected in its six large eyes, and the huge hill-shaped body twisted back towards the corner, as if it wanted to imprint on the wall.
Not to mention the threat of death posed by the flames filling Lu Wei's body, the strange power of this little witch was enough to make Lu Wei feel terrified deep in its heart, even if it were Hagrid, it would be impossible to cut off its left paw at once.
Elena approached the three-headed Lu Wei, reached out, and stroked the soft and long fur of the large dog, narrowing her eyes with joy.
No denying it, this oversized plush cushion feels really good to touch!
"Wang, Wang, Wang."
Lu Wei lay motionless on the ground, letting the little witch in front of him ravage him, with a very cunning look.
With that slight touch of magic, Lu Wei could clearly feel some of Elena's simple emotions and instructions, such as "Obey = Become a pet" or "Rebel = Become food".
Never underestimate the intelligence of any magical creature, let alone overestimate the morality of a large dog domesticated by humans since childhood, if not worried and beaten, Luwei even intends to stick out its tongue to please Elena and lick her again.
Elena looked at the suddenly docile large dog, her lips curved satisfied, and lazily said.
"Paw, I mean, paw."
"Wang? Wang! Wang ~"
The poor Lu Wei shook his body, and suddenly remembered that he had recently attacked the "little master" in front of him with his right paw.
"Woo, woo, woo."
After a little hesitation of one or two seconds, the large dog let out a mournful whimper, and its six eyes tightly closed simultaneously, trembling, and extended its remaining and unscathed right paw to Elena.
"Why are you extending this paw to me? I'm not a ruthless devil."
Elena gave a rather amused look to the human-like large dog in front of her, shook her head, and squatted down next to the three-headed dog's left paw, which showed an abnormal range of flexion, and examined it carefully.
The constitution of the three-headed dog is really strong. If it were an ordinary human, it should have collapsed in mud long ago. How could it be just a simple fracture?
"Ur"
Elena softly sang and slowly pressed her hands into the small depression of Lu Wei's claws.
A white light shone in the girl's palm and sank into the three-headed dog's body, healing the great dog's wound: the legs that showed an abnormal curvature quickly returned to normal, and Lu Wei's pitiful whimper gradually turned into a comfortable one.
"From now on, you are my pet, just like my little grain reserve."
Elena straightened up and sat with satisfaction reflected in her hair. The small white palms patted the heads of the three large dogs, as if they were sealed, showing a satisfied look.
In this way, inside Hogwarts' Forbidden Forest, she could almost walk sideways, as she had been coveting a large group of legendary terrestrial soft-shell crabs for a long time.
"Come on, grandpa, let's go down. It's time for dinner, and if we don't hurry, we won't make it."
Elena grabbed the long hair on Luwei's body and skillfully climbed onto his back, sitting a little behind the three-headed dog's neck, and greeted Grindelwald with a bright face, indicating the old man to come up.
"Down? Alright."
Grindelwald looked at the curving hallway outside the door with a headache and shrugged helplessly.
"However, I can't guarantee that I'll find the right way."
Although the two temporarily left the basement of Hogwarts Castle with the most intricate grounds, Grindelwald did not believe that the path on the fourth floor of the castle would be much simpler than the path on the ground floor.
Perhaps the only advantage is that at least the portraits on the upper floors of the castle can speak, and unlike the underground area, there is no directional sign after walking for more than ten minutes.
"Don't worry, now we have a guide."
Elena smiled confidently, leaning slightly to hug Luwei's neck, resting her chin comfortably on the dog's furry head.
The so-called "three-headed dog" is just a general term, as if we were describing common dogs. Although they are collectively called "dogs", Huskies, Corgis, Teddy... They are all completely different.
In fact, due to mixed blood, most three-headed dogs have different appearances.
As powerful three-headed dogs, they can always adjust their appearance and physiognomy according to the environment they are in, but wizards can still infer these giant creatures in the normal canine world based on some of their "relative" physical characteristics.
For example, from Lu Wei's tricephalic appearance, he obviously resembles more a gigantic Caslow Hound.
A great attack dog originating from ancient Rome, it has a natural guard instinct and can hunt lions, wild boars, and even cooperate with the army to participate in battles on the battlefield.
The Caslow has a brave temperament, extraordinary courage, and is full of toughness. Due to its excellent endurance, once it fights, it is often a battle ****. But at the same time, it is exceptionally docile and has super high intelligence that ranks at the forefront of dogs.
Undoubtedly, from Lu Wei's state, he obviously possesses many of the personalities and traits of the Caslow.
Although as the most important guard dog in the world, it can lie quietly somewhere for most of the time, without any abnormal noise, and it will not bark. Even when there is a request to the owner, it will whimper softly.
But where it truly excels is in tracking prey and serving as an auxiliary attacker, and this is exactly the most needed help for the two lost demon kings at the moment.
Of course, Luwei is not a human after all, nor is it a professionally trained guide dog. If they only tell him the name of the place, there is currently no way to achieve precise route planning.
Therefore, if Elena and Grindelwald want to reach the school's dining hall smoothly, they need to give the three-headed dog Luwei a small hint.
Elena reached out and stroked Lu Wei's two triangular ears covered in short hair, leaning on the edge of the large dog's ear and gently ordered him.
"Hagrid. Rube Hagrid."
"Now... take us to see him."
...
First floor dining hall of Hogwarts Castle.
Over time, in addition to the rumors spread by an enthusiastic little witch, the small secret story about Professor Snape is slowly spreading and fermenting.
The students' discussions about the change in the potions class and the discussions about baked snails with cheese gradually dwindled, all putting their expectations on the next potions class.
After a while, the late Professor Snape and Professor Dumbledore also entered the auditorium and announced the official dinner.
As Grindelwald promised during breakfast, Hogwarts quickly restored the original standard of meals after an unfinished financial sponsorship.
When the students suddenly saw countless delicacies appear on the golden plates of the table, just like at this year's feast at school, they immediately abandoned the whispers about potions and Elena.
Except for Hermione and Hannah, almost no one in the entire auditorium paid attention to a first-year Hufflepuff student missing dinner again.
"Elena hasn't shown up yet, must she be lost again? Hannah, why did you leave her alone in the classroom?"
Somehow, Hermione slipped to the edge of the long Hufflepuff table and looked at the closed door of the auditorium, complaining a little in her tone.
"Because there are teachers, I thought..."
Hannah bit her lip. She originally thought that Professor Snape and Professor Dumbledore should talk about Elena and bring her to the auditorium. Who knew that until the two professors arrived, she didn't see Elena.
It wasn't until this moment that Hannah Abbot was completely panicked.
The thought that a white-haired girl might still be wandering around the castle filled her with unease and worry. God knows how helpless and miserable Elena must be feeling, alone.
"No, I'm still worried. Otherwise, I will go look for her."
Carefully, she speared the french fries on the dinner plate with a fork, Hannah pondered, leaving the fork and abruptly standing up, gazing at Hermione beside her.
"Wait, I will accompany you."
Hermione nodded and stored her unmarked notebook (the notes on the baked snails with cheese that Hannah had just dictated), also stood up and took Hannah's arm.
"Two people searching are better than one..."
Boom!
At this moment, the Hogwarts Auditorium shook violently, and there was a deafening noise, as if a dry thunderbolt had exploded out of nowhere.
Boom!
Immediately after, there was another sound of shaking and collision.
This time, everyone stopped their conversation and movements, lifted their heads and anxiously looked at the auditorium door.
Ever since the owl hit the school some time ago, the main door of the Hogwarts Auditorium has been specially reinforced.
But even so, there was still a slight depression mark inside the door panel, as if there were a group of angry giants outside.
All the adult wizards sitting on the teachers' bench stood up, drew their wands, and gazed at the door as if they were enemies.
"Professor Dumbledore?"
Professor McGonagall frowned, looking anxiously at the old wizard beside her, preparing to say something.
Boom!
After another loud rumble, the auditorium door finally opened.
The nightmare had arrived for everyone.
A terrible fiery beast with a faint blue flame appeared in the auditorium entrance, and its three horrifying heads shook from side to side, as if they were monsters from the depths of hell.
Gazes met the cold, bloodthirsty eyes of the monster, and everyone couldn't help but be stunned for a few seconds.
One second, two seconds...
The whole auditorium was silent as if time had been detained by magic.
The young wizards stared at the monster at the door, their faces as if they had just woken up from a dream.
Squeak...
Squeak...
Squeak...
The six eyes of the three-headed Hellhound dog rolled a bit, and it gently exhaled bursts of breath, breaking that strange tranquility.
"Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah!"
"Ah!"
"Ahhhhhhhhhh!"
At the next moment, the room was suddenly filled with chaos, and the sound of crying and clinking dishes mixed together.
