Chapter 2686: Return to the depths of the forbidden forest

On the way back to the Forbidden Forest, Harry and the others failed to meet Willie again.
It's not that Harry and the others don't want to, but because of the fierce battle in the forest and the chaos of the scene, they are no longer allowed to approach the most central area where Willie is located - it will definitely cost too much. Now it has become very difficult for them. precious time.
So the few of them could only take Maca, who seemed to be unable to move on their own, to walk through the chaotic forest battlefield in a low-key way, just to go to the direction of the Forbidden Forest as quickly as possible according to Maca's previous instructions...
In fact, looking back and looking at it like this, it was clear that it was in a very tight time before, but Maca was still dragging and catching Willie on the way to gossip... He seemed to have already predicted that he might not be able to do any more. Talking to the other party on the return trip is normal, even...
Harry, who was closely behind Hermione, suddenly shook his head vigorously, throwing some unlucky thoughts into the back of his head along with his hair.
"Maybe it's time for a haircut."
He mumbled something casually, but his eyes swept over Maka who was floating on the side.
Maybe there is no way for such thoughts to come up. After all, it is really difficult for Maca not to think about that.
However, just as Harry ran and looked at Maka with a heavy face, he heard Maka's persistent babble that had already become more and more inaudible, and could only barely be heard when it was close to his mouth, suddenly. It got bigger again-
"...Don't worry, I'm not going to die, it's just a rest to nourish my spirit...I'll have work to do later!"
Although it was only for a while, he soon became quiet again, and only his slightly wriggling lips could let people know that he was actually still mumbling something.
"I know you won't."
It was Hermione, who was walking in front, who replied abruptly.
What Maka said just now was obviously not just for Harry... After all, when he was talking, he didn't even move his neck, and no one knew who he was talking to.
In other words, even if it's just for a moment, probably everyone here has at least a similar thought to Harry's.
But Hermione said it anyway!
Is there really any basis for saying that? Harry was suddenly concerned. Because he was very familiar with Hermione's speaking habits, he could vaguely hear that Hermione seemed to be serious from that sentence.
It's just that Hermione didn't continue after saying that. And Maca, did not give any corresponding response.
The surrounding trees gradually sparsed, and then gradually became denser again. If Hermione at the front had not led the wrong direction, she should have entered the forbidden forest again by now.
The twisted and tangled ghoul nets on the ground can no longer be used as a reference for the location, because they have already spread with the proliferation of living corpses breaking into the school courtyard. Their figures are now!
With living corpses constantly being supplied as nutrients, this is really a magical plant with a terrifying growth ability... Rebes and the others will definitely not like this scene.
Luckily they couldn't follow.
However, although there is no way to confirm the location, it does not mean that they are completely useless to Maca and his party.
Looking at the dark vines that seemed to be everywhere at her feet, Hermione, who was in charge of leading the way, moved forward quickly, and kept rolling her eyes to sweep back and forth on the surrounding ground.
Although she was unable to meet Veri, Veri's "eyes" had apparently been watching them from the moment they stepped out of the castle—she, whose perception range was already with her plant companions, seemed to also It was also in the depths of the forbidden forest that some interesting new changes were noticed. Hermione had noticed that some vines seemed to be consciously trying to guide them.
"The road that Willie pointed to is indeed a certain location in the Forbidden Forest."
Hermione suddenly caught a glimpse of a strange-shaped rock that was somewhat familiar. Although she couldn't see the whole picture due to the clinging of the ghoul net, she still remembered seeing it when she and Harry and others followed Hagrid to the Forbidden Forest at night. over it.
Just go further inside, and everything around becomes more and more unfamiliar.
Aragog's lair has long since collapsed and buried, and several tribes of centaurs have been vacant for a long time with the fairly thorough relocation. Now, with the spread of the ghoul net, even the last traces are hard to find.
The entire Forbidden Forest is no longer what it used to be.
Hermione and the others walked in a hurry, and under the cover of various magical plants all the way, the few of them who were deliberately hiding from the living corpses did not encounter any obstacles that had to stop.
So although they detoured somewhat, it didn't actually take much time.
After looking at the forest scenery full of colorful plants, they finally saw a huge cave between the sturdy tree trunks in front of them.
From here, you can vaguely see that the entrance of the cave was originally closed by two giant stone gates, and there seemed to be some remains of the building complex in front of the gate. But the two doors are now collapsed and damaged, and huge stones are scattered everywhere. At the same time, some of the remaining buildings and the trees nearby have been smashed into a mess. sight.
But these are not important now, because the most important thing is that Hermione and others have seen something very familiar at the entrance of the giant cave-that is the black color that has been entrenched in Hogwarts Castle not long ago. The fog is gone, and at this moment, they are surging slightly from the huge cave and gradually spread out.
The ghoul nets on the ground obviously have no interest in those black mists. Although Wei Li seems to have discovered the changes here, she gave her guidance along the way, but she is so far away that she is obviously unable to control the specific actions of all plants. Relying only on the instincts of the plants themselves, they hunted and killed the living corpses they saw on the way.
As for what was going on in that dark cave, Willie, who was far outside the forbidden forest, probably had no way of knowing.
"It should be right there."
Seeing that the destination was in front of her, Hermione finally stopped, which caused Harry and Safina who were following to stop together.
"Harry, you—"
"I'll go in too!"
Hermione, who was about to say something, was blocked by Harry's words, and Hermione's slight silence also proved that Harry's hunch was correct - she probably really wanted Harry to stay just now. here comes.
But it was also at this moment that Maca, who had been flattened back to the ground by Hermione, suddenly sat up, raised her mutilated arms and stretched hard.
