"Thanks, I just need some coffee to refresh myself!" Elwyn said as he walked over. "Hagrid, what's that in your hand?"
"Oh, this is a helmet made by the fairies. It's indestructible, isn't it beautiful?" "I think the giants will like it. I have confidence in it." Hagrid said as he handed the exquisite helmet that was glowing with dark green light to Ivan. "I think the giants will like it. I have confidence in it."
Elwyn lowered his head to look at the inscription on the helmet. It was an ancient magic text: Humans can control their own fate. If we are controlled by others, then the fault is not in fate, but in ourselves!
This sentence sounded very familiar, could this helmet be …
"Crown of Fate!" Sirius said softly. "It is said that it once belonged to King Arthur, and was obtained by Merlin. It is a legendary magical item with historical value. Of course, this is only a replica, but it is still priceless. The real Crown of Fate and the Sword of Kings have long been hidden by the fairies. Some say it is in the deepest part of Gringotts. "
The fairies were experts in forging, and almost all the famous weapons and equipment were made by them.
But the greedy fairies had a bad habit. They believed that the ownership of these legendary magical items would always belong to the creator, which was themselves. Humans would only pay a high price to rent these items from them.
After the user died, they would retrieve these weapons and equipment, making them never appear again.
If it wasn't for Gryffindor playing a trick and casting a spell on his sword, as long as the real Gryffindor was able to pull out the sword from the Sorting Hat, then Gryffindor's sword would have long disappeared.
Just like those legendary magical items that disappeared in history, becoming a fairy's collection.
"Dumbledore valued the giants very much. He took out valuable items from his and Hogwarts's vault." Hagrid said as he rummaged through the pile of items. "The giants will be interested in them, as long as we use them properly."
Elwyn and Sirius also began to help him sort through the gifts. Amidst the mountain of gifts, they even found a stick of Gupley's Immortal Fire.
The pale blue flame burned quietly, as if it had no temperature.
The Immortal Fire of Kublai is an eternal fire that will never go out, no matter what you do to it.
For Alchemy and Potionology, this Immortal Gupley Fire was a top-notch concoction, and its price was sky-high.
Elwyn wondered what the giants would do with it. Roast wild boar? Or use it as a candle?
It would be a pity to give it to the giants, but it would allow them to clearly feel the presence of magic.
Then, Elwyn found another piece of dragon skin. It was a complete piece from a dragon that was dozens of feet long.
The Fire Dragon's scales had a very strong defense. In order to get a complete piece of undamaged Fire Dragon skin, tens of wizards would need to use killing spells or rare poisons to kill the Fire Dragon at the same time. Then, the most skilled craftsmen would spend more than three months to completely peel off the dragon skin.
The whole process was very troublesome, and most importantly, it was useless. No equipment would use such a large piece of dragon skin.
Apart from pure-blooded wizard families that needed to show off their family's glory and wealth, no one would do this.
This piece of dragon skin should be something from the Hogwarts's treasure vault. Dumbledore's personal collection definitely did not have it.
Other than that, there were many alchemy tools and other magic items in the pile of gifts, all of which were rare treasures.
Although Dumbledore could not promise the giants more, he hoped that they would feel his sincerity through the gifts.
To be honest, if Elwyn was a giant, he would also be tempted by this small mountain of gifts.
Now it was up to the Lord Voldemort and the Death Eaters to bring out what they could. This was a process of competition between the two sides.
"By the way, what do we do with these gifts? How do we communicate with the giants?" Elwyn asked.
"Dumbledore told us to give the most precious gift to Guge, the giant's leader, to show our sincerity." Hagrid said, "After we find the giants, we have to hold the gifts up high and keep our eyes on Guge. We don't need to care about the others. They will understand our intentions and not attack us. As for the rest of the gifts, we will secretly give them to the other giants. Don't let Guge find out. "
"Alright, how do we know which one is Guge?" Elwyn said. He remembered some of the giant's customs that Hermione had helped him sort out. He knew that the leader had a very high status in the giant tribe, and the other giants had to listen to his orders.
"That's easy. Just find the biggest, ugliest and laziest giant. It's definitely Guge."
"Giants are naturally aggressive. Only the strongest one is qualified to be the leader." Sirius followed. "They don't know how to use magic, and they aren't very smart either. So the biggest one is usually the strongest."
An absurd image appeared in Elwyn's mind. They were kneeling in front of a giant as ugly as a mountain, offering him gifts, and the giant roared at them rudely …
"Dumbledore told us not to rush. We have to take it slow. We have to bring some good things every day to leave a good impression." Hagrid said, "I'll be responsible for holding the gifts for Guge so they can all see them. Elwyn, put the gifts for the other giants in your bag and take them out secretly. "
"Why don't we send all the gifts at once?"
"That won't do. That would be terrible. For creatures like giants, you can't talk to them too much at once. Otherwise, they'll kill you directly. It's simple. You have to take it slow and communicate with them slowly."
"You have to let them understand that you have more things to give them. Let them have a sense of anticipation. Only then will they cooperate with us." Sirius said, "These are the experiences that Dumbledore has accumulated from dealing with giants. The books will never record these things."
Indeed, the information that Elwyn found did not mention these specific methods of dealing with giants.
"This is a good experience. Not every wizard has the chance to come into contact with giants, let alone walk into a tribe of giants. It's a pity that Harry and the others couldn't follow us. This is something that can't be learned in school." Hagrid said as he put the last box away. "Alright, Elwyn, do you have any more questions?"
"Only one. Do any of you understand the giant's language?"
