Actually, the crux of Hagrid's mission wasn't to capture the Jobber Birds, but to find a tree that they liked and chase away the threatening Bowtruckles. Most of the trees in the forbidden forest were withered and dead, only the Bowtruckles could provide them with some vitality. Therefore, the Jobber Birds would like to stay on trees with Bowtruckles. Therefore, as long as they found a tree, they wouldn't have to worry about not having any birds.
When Sheyan returned with the pack of birds, Hagrid naturally praised him. The mission requirement was to capture one bird, but Sheyan managed to capture an entire nest. Therefore, his impression of Sheyan had increased from 2761000 to 4761000, which was normal. It was only noon, Sheyan wanted to strike while the iron was hot and accept a few more missions. But at this moment, a magical bell sounded from Hagrid's nest, informing him of a guest's visit. Sheyan could only stand up and return to his campsite.
Lunch was delivered by a few house elves of Hogwarts. However, it was impossible to enjoy the luxurious treatment of a student, it was only hamburgers, sandwiches and the like. Probably because Sheyan had fought with the Banks Syndicate and displayed his prowess, the members of the Symbiosis sect were much friendlier towards him. While eating, Sheyan asked a member of the Symbiosis sect where to find a country bumpkin. That person shook his head and said he didn't know. At this moment, a voice drifted in from the side.
"Did you encounter the Bowtruckles?"
Sheyan turned his head to look, only to see Diaz standing not far away with his outer coat draped over his shoulders. He still had an indescribable callousness, his right hand was dragging a huge bag, outside the bag was dark blood dripping down. His left hand had a distinct scar. Sheyan and Diaz were both neutral parties, he nodded and replied.
"Yes. Eh, Hagrid seems to have given you a bloody job. "
Diaz calmly replied.
"Take a train to a mountain range a hundred kilometres away to collect the innards of three brown bears."
Sheyan shrugged his shoulders and replied.
"Oh! That is a dangerous and disgusting mission. Oh right, I did encounter the Bowtruckles, do you have any suggestions? "
Diaz maintained his cold demeanor, bluntly stating.
"Questions related to the bowtruckle will cost 100 utility points each. 500 utility points, I can divulge all the relevant information to you. Of course, the prerequisite is that I already know. This transaction can be verified through the nightmare imprint. "
Sheyan laughed. Diaz's second choice seemed to be a trap, because the premise of the transaction was' Diaz must know a huge amount of information about the Truckle Bowtruckle '. If not, spending 100 utility points would be more worth it. But after some consideration, he still chose to fork out 500 utility points. Previously, Hagrid's mission had already rewarded him with close to 600 utility points, it was enough for this transaction. Diaz complied with the transaction rules, and revealed everything he knew.
It turned out that the "country bumpkin" that the bowtruckle liked was actually a slip of the pen. Hagrid was a hybrid between a giant and a human. He grew up among the giants. Therefore, the 'ground beetle' he wrote in the information he gave Sheyan was actually a slang term used by the giants. Its true counterpart was a type of water beetle. This type of beetle preferred to move about underwater in the mud. Therefore, Sheyan couldn't find it under rocks or bushes.
Next, Sheyan obtained an extremely important piece of information. That was the information related to the Bowtruckle Bowtruckle milestone 'Ardent Man'. After achieving this milestone, he would automatically receive the title 'Omnipotent'. This was a rare title, its attributes were extremely good: All attributes + 3!
Of course, high value also means high risk. To complete the milestone 'Warm-Hearted Man', one has to complete the final mission given by the 4 shops, Eila Owl Shop, Gringotts Manager, Magic Sports Shop (The shop that sells Nimbus 2000), Borgin & Burk Magic Shop.
The first three shops were located in London's magic market, Diagon Alley, while the last shop was located in Overturn Alley. That was the gathering place for dark magicians and dark magicians.
One thing to note was that in order to achieve this milestone, there was the word 'Ultimate' in front of the mission. This signified that one had to gradually complete the mission of the four shop owners. Only after thoroughly earning their trust, then one would have the qualifications to receive the ultimate mission. As for Borgin and Burk Magic Shop owner, it wasn't that troublesome. Instead, the mission he gave was a chain mission, and its complexity was not inferior.
Finally, there was a good news. After completing the 'Compassionate Man' milestone, one would receive a title: Bowtruckle Bowtruckle's Feedback (Speed). Within a 30 metre radius of trees, your HP regeneration will be increased by 25 points per minute during battle. Furthermore, this title had an attribute (Speed) behind it. This signified that it possessed the ability to rapidly equip equipment. Even during battle, this title could be used to equip equipment at any time. If Sheyan was engaged in a tug-of-war with an enemy, and coincidentally there were trees nearby, then this title signified that the battle would last for another 4 minutes. Sheyan would receive an additional 100 HP healing. The significance of this was self-evident.
However, after completing the 'Compassionate Man' milestone, one could no longer complete the 'Cruel Man' milestone. One could only choose one. After completing the 'Cruel Man' milestone, there was no title, but one would receive an additional bonus of 2 achievement points.
Therefore, in the afternoon, Sheyan searched for Hagrid several times but to no avail. Thus, he directly searched for beetles in a small stream. He then carried a large bag of beetles to the edge of the forbidden forest to search for Bowtruckles and entertain them. At this moment, Sheyan started to rejoice that he didn't consider completing the 'Cruel Man' milestone. It wasn't because the Bowtruckles were too powerful, but because they were too hard to find.
These little creatures would only appear when humans were close to trees. The rest of the time, they would lie quietly on the trees, not moving at all. Sheyan couldn't possibly touch every single tree in the vicinity of the forbidden forest. The only advantage was, the trees with the Bowtruckles would grow more luxuriantly. This greatly reduced Sheyan's workload.
When night fell, Sheyan no longer dared to take the risk of lingering in the vicinity of the forbidden forest. Any random treacherous creature within wasn't something he could contend against in his current state. After an entire afternoon, he only managed to find 23 Bowtruckles. When he arrived at the campsite, he discovered the members of the Symbiosis sect were all silently sitting around the campfire. The atmosphere was deathly silent. Diaz, who had always been aloof and indifferent, was also present.
"Seaman." The Symbiosis sect leader Qiao Gun stood up, solemnly speaking to Sheyan. "I have an extremely unfortunate news – to you, to me, and to everyone else."
Sheyan was indeed shocked for a moment, but he immediately calmed down and asked tentatively, "What's the matter?"
"What is the Banks Syndicate up to?"
"Yes." Qiao Gun's voice was gloomy. "Hagrid, that big fella, won't appear in front of us for at least 48 hours. If there aren't any accidents, the next time he appears in front of us will be the afternoon of the last 5 days. This means that even the best of us have to raise Hagrid's impression of us by at least 500 points on the last day! This is an almost impossible task. "
"Why?" The one who asked was Diaz, who was in disbelief. "Hagrid's actions, is already neglecting his duty! Isn't he afraid of Hogwarts' punishment? "
Qiao Gun sneered.
"Everyone has a weakness, and Hagrid is no exception. That foolish big fella loves to rear all sorts of dangerous and rare creatures! In the original storyline, because of a dragon egg, he accidentally revealed the secret of the Cerberus. His actions almost directly led to the theft of the sorcerer's stone. The Banks Syndicate has also seen this weakness! "
"Someone from the Banks Syndicate has entered this world many times, but his identity is still a mystery. But one thing is certain, he has already gained the trust of a high level storyline character, thus he has quite a bit of authority in this world. This time when he entered, the Banks Syndicate paid a hefty price, and brought in an arachnid cub from the Starship Trooper world. This thing to this world, is definitely a new species. "
"When the Banks Syndicate made use of this arachnid cub to trade with Hagrid, not only did they obtain a generous reward, they even injected the cub with a large dose of anesthetic that can last for 50 hours. To the Hagrid who is obsessed with rearing animals, he will definitely crazily abandon the unimportant tasks in his hands to meticulously take care of this vicious little cub. Just like when you see a voluptuous busty woman during sex. As for neglecting his duty, ladies and gentlemen, Hogwarts is currently under the control of Dumbledore. He firmly believes that Hagrid is someone he can entrust his life to. Under such circumstances, without a doubt, even if there is a problem, the foolish big fella Hagrid will at most be berated twice. But we will have to face the terrible fate of being eliminated before the show even begins! Without our support, Boss will definitely be isolated and helpless, and the great plan that we have set up before will definitely be stopped!
