HP: White Lord of Slytherin

Chapter 163 Transaction Completed

Gloria put away the golden egg and said, "Information is not that easy to obtain. You guys continue. I have to go out for a while."

Draco rubbed his ears and asked in a low voice: "Where to?"

She took him aside and said, "The dragon gave me the golden egg, and I want to give him the promised item." Then she stuffed the golden egg into his arms and said, "Wait here, I'll be back soon."

Gloria had greeted them in advance, so the dragon trainers had not left yet, and one of the fire dragons had an injured eye, so they were treating it.

When they returned here, the enclosure had been dismantled and several fire dragons had fallen into a coma. Three of them were fine, except for the Chinese fire dragon with red scales, which had blood flowing from its left eye. The wizard carefully cleaned its wound, and it would move slightly every time he touched it.

"You're here." Charlie came over with a distressed expression on his face.

"Caught by the eye disease curse?" Gloria didn't understand the behavior of all the warriors, but this one was definitely cursed.

"Yes." Charlie's face turned grim. "Not only that, she crushed about half of the eggs because of the pain. She will be angry for a long time after she recovers. When the remaining eggs are hatched, I'm afraid we won't be able to get close."

Thinking of this, he wanted to cast a spell on Krum. Charlie loved Quidditch very much and had no good feelings towards Krum at the moment.

Gloria took out a bottle of potion from the pocket of her school robes. "It's a pretty good potion. It's very effective against damage caused by curses. How about giving it a try?"

Charlie knew he shouldn't just take it, but seeing the Chinese Fire Dragon's painful look, he said, "Thank you, name a price. I can't take your medicine for free."

"No hurry, I'll complete the contract transaction first."

The Hungarian Horntail was awakened, but instead of spewing flames, she stared straight at Gloria.

"Don't come near. I'm the party in the transaction. She won't hurt me." He reminded the surrounding wizards before completing the contract.

A circle of wizards raised their wands and watched her approach the dragon. Then Gloria handed something to the dragon, but it was too far away and the thing was very small to be sure what it was.

Seeing the fire dragon raise its head and open its mouth, the wizards became extremely nervous, ready to cast an extinguishing spell at any time to prevent the student from being burned by the flames.

However, the Hungarian Horntail did not spit fire. Instead, it opened its mouth and ate the small thing the girl threw into its mouth.

After eating, it stood up, stretched its wings, raised its head and spit out long flames.

Gloria looked up at all this, then slowly stepped back, "The contract is completed, goodbye." She waved goodbye to the fire dragon.

The Hungarian Horntail shook its head, lay down on the ground again, and snorted heavily in response to her.

The dragon trainers were amazed by this scene, and Charlie's eyes lit up. "What is that?"

"Something that's good for her." Gloria's ambiguous answer stopped others from asking further questions.

Charlie paid for the potion as he had said before, and happily gave it to the Chinese fire dragon immediately. The effect was indeed very good, and after applying it on the injured eye, the bleeding stopped. Several wizards worked together to lift the eyelids and poured the remaining potion on it. There was a constant sizzling sound, but the fire dragon did not move.

These fire dragons will be sent back to Romania tonight, especially the Chinese fire dragon which needs to be appeased.

After completing the contract, Gloria immediately returned to the lounge.

The celebration lasted until midnight, and she returned to the dormitory only when she was too sleepy.

As soon as I finished washing and lay down, three snakes came over.

Apophis felt aggrieved, "This is the first time you've been away from us for so long at school."

Golinia looked around and asked, "Are you injured?"

Jörmungandr was already curled up on her legs, and pointed his tail at the golden egg and asked, "What is that?"

Gloria raised her hand and said, "I answered them one by one. I couldn't help but keep you in the dormitory. If I checked you, I would be considered cheating. I was not injured. I made a contract exchange with a Hungarian Horntail Dragon and successfully got this golden egg. They said it contained information about the next project."

Golinia swam to the golden egg and asked, "What message?"

In order to provide a good resting environment, a spell was cast in the dormitory. Apart from normal knocking and shouting, all other sounds were excluded. Therefore, they did not hear the screams that broke out in the lounge.

Gloria cast a small spell on herself so that she couldn't hear the sound, and then opened the golden egg.

The room was filled with piercing screams. Even if one could not hear the sound, one could feel the bed on which the golden egg was placed vibrate slightly. It would take about two seconds for the golden egg to be quickly closed, lifting the spell on the body.

"That's all." Gloria spread her hands helplessly. "I can't make out what it means. Maybe it's the sound of the next creature I need to deal with. I plan to look up the books in the library about magical creatures that can make noises."

After all, this kind of sound cannot be made by a human.

"Are we going back to the manor?" Jörmungandr was looking forward to it. The little wizards in Hogwarts were very interesting, but they would get bored if they stayed there for too long. Sometimes they wanted to stretch their bodies and be free for a few days.

"That's not necessary," Gloria said. "Just ask Toker to bring the book over."

Apophis simply placed his hand on the golden egg and said, "So many books, can you finish reading them?"

"I have seen it before, but it has been so long that I don't remember everything." Gloria was not in a hurry at all, "Besides, I only saw the magical creatures that are still alive in the outside world."

The three snakes just thought that she was going to start reading, and the time she spent chatting with them became shorter.

·

In the lounge in the early morning, students gathered together to talk. Most of the topics were related to the competition, especially the screams from the golden egg last night. No one knew what creature made the sound.

If it could be easily known, it would not be chosen as part of the competition.

Gloria came out and saw Draco sitting on his private sofa, dozing with his head propped up, with a faint shadow under his eyes.

She walked forward and touched the handsome face, "Are you sleepy?"

"Well..." Draco grabbed her hand and continued to press it on her face, "We were discussing what that sound was last night and woke up not long after falling asleep."

"I have listed the relevant books and I believe I will find it soon."

Draco opened his eyes and looked up at her, "How many books are there? I'll help you find them."

"More than a hundred books, maybe. You can finish your homework early on the weekend and then look for information." In fact, this is the first batch listed. If you can't find it, expand the search scope.

Draco stood up and stood in front of her, lowering his head and whispering, "I wrote to my father and asked him to talk to Mr. Short and Bagman to see if he could get any information about the next project."

"Not a bad idea." Gloria thought this was also a way to decrypt the code. "But Lucius is definitely not the only person who did this. If it works, that would be great. It saves a lot of time."

The creatures that they were going to face in the first project were revealed to her and Harry by Hagrid, and the other two headmasters also worked hard to find out, and the same would definitely be true for the second project.

Draco's eyebrows were smug. "I think the chance is quite high. It just depends on who can succeed."
