He was not unscathed either. Dewi remembered that Bard's ancestor had successfully shot off a scale from Smaug's left chest, leaving him with a fatal weakness.

This is also the reason why Bard was able to successfully kill the dragon Smaug with his ancestral black arrow.

The conversation between the two was also heard by other people in the room.

The dwarf Balin was surprised and said, "Are you a descendant of Girion, Lord of Dale? No wonder you look so familiar to me. You have some of your ancestor Girion's features!"

Bud said with a self-deprecating look: "You have a very sharp eye, after all, I am just a fisherman now."

Thorin, who had been silent for a long time, stood up at this moment, staring at the black arrow with a look of excitement and greed.

"Is this the black arrow that can kill the dragon?"

Gandalf seemed to have guessed his thoughts and poured cold water on him, saying, "It's only a possibility! Thorin Oakenshield, you can't expect to kill a dragon with this black arrow! Dragons are very cunning. They won't just sit there and wait for you to kill them!"

"If you don't have the chance to kill with one strike, the dragon's crazy revenge will be waiting for you!"

Thorin didn't listen to Gandalf's words at all, and stared at the black arrow with a persistent and determined look.

"No, this is fate's revelation! Fate sent this black arrow to me, wanting us to use it to accomplish the great feat of slaying the dragon!"

He turned and looked at Bud.

"how much is it?"

"What?" Bud didn't respond.

"How much is this Black Arrow? I want it!"

Bud was stunned, then shook his head.

"Sorry, this is an heirloom from my ancestors and is not for sale."

"You will sell it!" Thorin was determined to get it.

"You are a descendant of Girion, and you should know the treasures of the Lonely Mountain. If you are willing to hand over this black arrow, I promise to exchange it for one-fourteenth of the treasures of the Lonely Mountain."

Chapter 95 Professor McGonagall's Notes

Bard was tempted by Thorin's request to trade the Black Arrow.

Legend has it that the treasures in Lonely Mountain are piled up into a mountain, and even dragons are attracted by the treasures.

If he could get one-fourteenth of the treasure, not only would his life change dramatically, but he would also be able to help the poor residents of Changhu Town, and even rebuild River Valley City and restore the glory of his ancestors.

But after careful consideration, Bud shook his head.

"I can't risk the lives of the people of Changhu Town. If the dragon doesn't die, the entire Changhu Town will suffer its revenge, and everyone will be devoured by its flames!"

"Not to mention that the dragon has now awakened."

Being rejected, Thorin's expression became even uglier. After his gaze lingered on the black arrow for a while, he snorted coldly and turned around to sit back in his original seat, his face gloomy, and no one knew what he was thinking.

The atmosphere in the room turned cold again.

Gandalf looked a little worried when he saw Thorin like this.

Dui here was immersed in the system sign-in.

[Hogwarts Sign-in System: Locating Lake Town, do you want to sign in?]

"Sign in."

[Successful sign-in. Congratulations on obtaining the Transfiguration Notes of Minerva McGonagall, the Master of Transfiguration!]

Dui's eyes lit up as he looked at the thick notebook in front of him.

Professor McGonagall's notebook? What a surprise!

Dui couldn't wait to flip through it and was soon attracted by the content.

As a master of Transfiguration, Professor McGonagall's notebook not only records various Transfiguration spells in detail, but also contains many spells for transforming objects into objects, objects into animals, and animals into animals, as well as human Transfiguration spells including Animagus.

There are even spells and techniques for transforming elements like water, fire, and earth.

For example, you can condense flames into a giant python or a fire dragon, or animate statues to help you fight the enemy.

It can be said that this notebook is a complete masterpiece of transfiguration.

Dewi treated Professor McGonagall's notebook like a treasure.

Especially as an Animagus with a tabby cat form, Professor McGonagall's notebook records in detail the various situations that will be encountered and how to deal with them during the use of Animagus.

This is very instructive and instructive for Dui, who is currently practicing Animagus.

Now he had a mandrake leaf under his tongue, waiting for the next full moon to come so that he could take it out and proceed to the next step.

And such a time is coming soon.

But before that, Dui decided to take this opportunity to make a flying broom.

So in the next few days, the conflict between Gandalf and Thorin remained irreconcilable.

Gandalf tries to convince Thorin to give up going to the Lonely Mountain.

But Thorin was determined to continue on his journey, and he was determined to get the Arkenstone even if it cost him a price.

To this end, he approached the mayor of Long Lake Town to make a deal, hoping to get some weapons from the town's armory and then arm a group of dwarves.

He even still remembered the black arrow from the Bud family that could break dragon scales, and tried to get it by using threats and inducements several times.

The mayor of Long Lake Town was a greedy and blind guy. After learning that there was treasure on Lonely Mountain, he immediately agreed to provide weapons to the dwarves without considering the threat of the dragon at all.

Anyway, in his opinion, it was just an investment in some weapons that were gathering dust in the arsenal, and it didn't cost him any money anyway.

It would be fine if it doesn't succeed, but if it does, you will be able to obtain inexhaustible wealth. It is simply a business with no capital investment and you will make a fortune.

For this purpose, the mayor will hold a grand farewell party for the dwarves to see off the dwarf warriors.

Gandalf was worried about this, but he could not stop it.

As for Dewy, he turned a deaf ear to what was happening outside and stayed at Bud's house, spending the whole day polishing and carving the willow heart with a sharp dagger.

"Dui'er, the current situation has deviated from my previous plan. I am really worried."

One day Gandalf found Dewi and said with a worried look on his face.

"It's not just the dragon's problem, it's also Thorin. The dragon disease that runs in their family's bloodline. The closer they get to the treasure of the Lonely Mountain, the more obvious his madness becomes."

"I'm worried that when Thorin comes into contact with those treasures, he will be devoured by that crazy disease before the dragon's flames can consume him!"

Facing the worried Gandalf, Dewi admired him but also felt helpless.

He thought he could not be as selfless as Gandalf, or even repay evil with kindness.

After all, Gandalf had really been thinking about Thorin and the others these days, so he spared no effort to persuade them to give up going to Lonely Mountain and alarming the awakened dragon.

But in the eyes of the stubborn Thorin, Gandalf's persuasion was malicious and even became an enemy that prevented him from regaining his homeland.

So he simply ignored Gandalf and chose to cooperate with the mayor.

If Dewi were Gandalf, he would not bother to persuade such a person and would just let him destroy himself.

"If all else fails, Gandalf, you can just knock him out and release him after Durin's Day."

Dui suggested.

"Or if you don't want to do it yourself, I can help. I can cast a spell to make him quiet down."

Hearing Dewi's words, Gandalf was somewhat tempted, but immediately shook his head.

"Although I really want to do this, this is Thorin's will. We can only guide and persuade him, but we cannot use force to change his will, otherwise it will only lead to even more disastrous consequences!"

Then his eyes fell on what was in Dui's hand and he asked curiously.

"Are you making... a broom?"

Dewi nodded and shook his head.

"I'm going to make a flying broom as a means of transportation."

"Flying...broom? You mean it can fly!" Gandalf's eyes suddenly lit up and he asked hurriedly.

Dui nodded, but his hands kept moving.

Gandalf instantly put Thorin aside and focused all his attention on the broom that was gradually taking shape in front of him.

Flying, this is a temptation that no one can refuse, even Gandalf is no exception.

Although Gandalf is good friends with the giant eagles, he can summon them to take him flying when necessary.

But being carried flying and flying by yourself are two completely different experiences, so Gandalf was very interested in the flying broom that Dewi mentioned.

But before Dui's flying broom was finished,

Bud hurried back from outside and brought back a sudden news.

"The dwarves just left on their ship. They're on their way to the Lonely Mountain!"

"And the halfling was taken away by them as well."

"They left?" Gandalf immediately lost his composure, and became angry and anxious.

"They left without telling us! What does Thorin Oakenshield mean by this? Does he not trust us?"

There was anger in Gandalf's eyes, and a hint of disappointment.

"No, we can't just let them into the Lonely Mountain! Thorin Oakenshield is taking them to their deaths!"

As he said this, he grabbed his staff and went to catch up with Thorin and the others.

But this time Due refused to go with Gandalf.

He shook his head and pointed at the broom in his hand: "My flying broom will be completed in a few days, so I can't get away for the time being. Gandalf, if you are willing to wait a while, you can ride the broom with me to catch up."

Although Gandalf was somewhat tempted, he still refused.

"Never mind. I can't sit still here, so I'll go chase them. You can come back after the broom is done."

Then he borrowed a boat from Bard and took the boat to chase Thorin and others.

Dui was the only guest left at Bud's house.
