Chapter 58: Forbidden forest (modified)

Days just slipped away inadvertently. One week before the exam, Harry Potter’s determination not to be nosy was tested by an accident. After Harry came out of the library, he heard Professor Quirrell’s Weeping and whimpering in the classrooms, it seemed that they had finally compromised after being threatened by someone.
　　 The trio began to discuss countermeasures-finally Harry and Hermione persuaded Ron to give up the decision to continue the night cruise, and pulled a Jupiter astronomical map in front of him and began to review the names of Jupiter's moons.
After 　　, the five Harrys on the Gryffindor table received five identical notes: Your confinement begins at 11 o'clock tonight. Look for Mr. Filch in the foyer. Harry and the others hadn't complained at all. They had been guilty and uneasy since losing their points. The punishment had only come now, which made them feel relieved. They felt that they deserved such punishment.
　　 Even Hermione, who was racing against time to review her homework, didn't complain at all. In her opinion, making mistakes should be punished, and this is a matter of course and reason—Ron expects that after confinement, they may be less stunned.
At this time, Allen was tasting creamy mushroom soup. This rare French dish milk soup was salty and fresh, which suits his appetite. Suddenly, the familiar system sounds sounded in his mind, "Limited mission: Rescue the evil. Unicorns, get the gratitude of the unicorns. The time is limited to 24 hours. If the mission is successful, a random lottery will be awarded."
Allen suppressed his excitement and put down the spoon in his hand. He turned his head and glanced at the five Gryffindors who were talking loudly about confinement. Although he didn't know what rewards would be drawn, it meant that he needed to violate secretly. School rules, following the punished people went deep into the forbidden forest-thinking of this, Alan immediately got up and returned to his dormitory to make preparations, took out a scarf and started to change its color, which was used to contact the potion skills before. Selected some of the products and life-saving medicines that were purchased as their own action supplies.
At eleven o'clock in the night, Harry, Ron, Hermione, Freig, Neville and the others went downstairs to the foyer. The Hogwarts janitor, Argus Filch, was already waiting in the foyer— —There is also Draco Malfoy who is threatening Filch with his father’s Lucius Malfoy's identity as a manager. He ran to Professor McGonagall for breaking the curfew to report Harry's actions and was punished, although Neither Filch nor his cat, Mrs. Loris, took the threat of Malfoy.
"Come with me." Filch said, lighting a lamp and leading them out. "I think you have to think twice if you want to violate school rules in the future, don't you, eh?" He squinted. While holding them, he continued: "Oh, yeah... If you ask me, I have to say that work and hardship are the best teachers... It's a pity that they abolished the old-fashioned punishment... My wrists hang you from the ceiling for several days. I still have those chains in my office. I often oil them. Maybe it will come in handy one day... Okay, let’s go. , Don’t even think about running away. If you run away, you won’t have any good fruits."
They endured Filch’s chatter and strode across the dark field. Neville, who remembered those horror legends in the Forbidden Forest, kept his nose sniffing. Freig didn’t know why he comforted him—Ron and Hermione were also taken along. Some bad emotions arose, and Harry didn't know what punishment they would be punished. He thought it must be terrible, otherwise Filch would not be so happy.
Until Hogwarts’ key guard and hunting ground guard Ruber Hagrid rescued the little wizards, he quarreled with Filch angrily and drove him away on the grounds that it was no longer his task. , Filch could only put out a few ruthless words like he would come to clean up the wreckage of the little wizards after dawn, holding his own oil lamp and swaying back into the darkness.
After Filch left, Draco Malfoy immediately tried to use his father’s school manager status to threaten Hagrid, trying to prevent himself from being punished into the forbidden forest-Hagrid, who has no liking for Slytherin Rudely, he went back directly, asking him to either obey the punishment and do something useful, or he was justified by the threat of getting out.
And just as Hagrid started to group the five-person group irresponsibly, trying to separate them for searching and facing the murderer who attacked the unicorn, he left the common room in Ravenclaw and used the magic The cursed Allen has already begun to rush towards the Forbidden Forest-in his invisible state, he has changed the color of his school uniform and turned it into the color and logo of Gryffindor Academy, and wrapped his head with a scarf .
　　 The cold moonlight shone on the path leading to the forbidden forest. The dark forbidden forest seemed to have a big mouth open, trying to swallow those who dared to violate it. A path of sheep intestines gradually concealed into the depths of the black dense forest appeared in front of Allen, and a breeze blew their hair. From the entrance, the scenery of the dense forest is hazy and indistinct. The bizarre branches are like devil with teeth and claws, waiting for the arrival of prey. Moonlight projected through the gaps between the leaves to the ground aperture, not only could not make people feel the warmth of light, but there was a strange and misty dizziness.
After entering the Forbidden Forest, Allen kept putting his wand handle down on the ground under the prompts of the system, and then chose the target direction based on the direction of the wand tip after it fell as the result of divination. Allen thought, if This is an optional course of Divination from the third grade, Professor Sybil Trelawney, who said that those students who have no "aura" will let them walk into the nest of the eight-eyed giant spider in the forbidden forest. …
Ellen, who has no experience of traveling in the forest at night, walked forward along the direction of the tip of the magic wand and strode forward, and then as he went deeper, he couldn’t help feeling a little scared by the gloomy environment around him, not because of the magical animals and monsters hidden in the forbidden forest What kind of fear, but the fear of darkness and the unknown is human instinct. In my mind, some plots like the "Blair the Witch" movie are complemented by his brain and combined with the scene in front of him-until he starts to use the other party as a witch or himself The wizard's reason convinced himself that he relaxed a little.
　　 Soon, some crackling branches and a string of messy footprints attracted Alan's attention.
　　 Looking in the direction of the footprints, a silver-white trace appeared in Allen's eyes. Allen could confirm that it was definitely not an illusion caused by moonlight, and it happened that the blood of the unicorn was silver-white.
　　 Following these traces, Allen followed. From time to time, a moonlight shed from the branches above, illuminating a silver-blue blood stain on the fallen leaves. Allen hopes to save the unicorn in time, it seems that his injury is very serious.
　　 When Alan walked past a moss-covered tree stump, the sound of running water reached Alan’s ears. Obviously, there is a stream somewhere nearby. On the winding road, there are still spots of unicorn blood, which looks shocking.
The deeper the forbidden forest, the denser the bloodstains. Alan was anxious and almost used the fastest foot force. However, the trees in the forbidden forest are too luxuriant. The huge roots are intertwined and must Be careful to avoid tripping. So even if Allen's skills are agile, but he dared not use fluorescent flicker, he walked cautiously.
Soon, there was a huge noise in the distance. Allen followed the sound. Through the tangled branches of an old oak tree, one could see a clearing in front of him. On the clearing, a horse was shaped like a silvery white. A hairy steed, a unicorn with a spiral horn in front of his forehead is fighting a hooded wizard in a black cloak.
Without rushing to make a move, Allen waited from afar for the right time-the mysterious man had to make sure that the unicorn was alive to drink to get power from the opponent's blood, and Allen did not intend to be too much for a reward adventure.
　　 The unicorn gradually got scarred and touched with its long horns. Its movements are already inflexible, but it still stubbornly resists the wizard's attack, but its personality and docile appearance are very different. They can fight the elephant and the fire dragon when they face this Quillo who is actually possessed by a mysterious person. Falling into the wind-although the black robe masked wizard looks a lot weaker than the beginning, he has minimized the use of magic.
　　 The mysterious man made Quirrell bear most of the curse of unicorn blood, and used it to extend his life that had no complete soul, no body, and even a ghost at the time.
Just when the unicorn was hit by the wizard’s petrification curse to the ground, and when he gathered his wand and was ready to start drinking, Allen drew out his wand and read from a distance to the black cloak that was relaxed because of his success. The curse, skillfully launched the curse: "Cut the bowels curse!"-His voice was a little sullen because of the red scarf.
But the black-robed masked wizard, who has rich combat experience and is very proficient in black magic, was not fooled as Allen expected. He was shocked when he heard the curse behind him, but he didn't even have time to look around. He gave up the unicorn that was within reach, held up his magic wand and cast an armor to protect him from behind, but he didn't worry about it and rolled aside to avoid this vicious curse.
Allen, who only cast one spell, was prepared for the opponent to avoid it. As the ensuing spells were applied, the light of the fainting and the petrifying spell was emitted from Allen's wand one after another-this time Allen's curse did hit the opponent, but the opponent just shook it and seemed to not have the actual effect that the magic should have.
　　 At this time, he saw that the masked wizard who attacked him in the distance seemed to be a low-grade Gryffindor wizard, and the other party had begun to lift the wand toward the sky as if he was planning to call reinforcements.
　　 had already fought with unicorns for a while and was already very weak. He didn't plan to risk his identity exposure at all, so instead of fighting with Ai again, he turned into a black shadow and quickly fled away.
　　 "Hahhhhhhhhhh!"
A scream came from the other side of the woods. It turned out that Harry and Malfoy who were in his group met Quirrell who was running away. The scream was made by Draco Malfoy-he was in After a short stunned mouth, he reacted motionlessly, and shook the oil lamp in his hand and ran away with a terrible scream.
Hagrid’s pet Fang escaped desperately, and he even surpassed Malfoy who was in front of him. This stupid hound also had his head open in such a crisis. He thought that as long as he ran past Malfoy, it was himself. It's safe...
The fleeing masked wizard raised his head and saw Harry at a glance. He drifted towards Harry greedily, and as the opponent approached, a sharp pain penetrated Harry’s head. This was his previous The feeling he had never felt before, as if his scars suddenly caught fire... His vision was blurred, he staggered backwards and finally thumped and fell to his knees.
　　 "Stay away from him!"
Fryg, who had been bickering with Draco a few steps behind, raised his wand and blocked Harry, who was fainted on the ground. Although he was not very talented in magic, he was not confident that he could release it. What spells can hurt the opponent.
　　 Quirrell and Mystery under the cloak saw more and more Gryffindors, and there was no time to continue entangled in this situation. He changed the direction and ran without looking back.
Hearing Ellen screaming and rushing over, he nodded when he saw this situation outside the bushes in the distance, and immediately ran back and ran back - Frog Brown was indeed a qualified Gran Fendor, and speaking of it, Draco, after successfully escaping, immediately brought Hagrid and them to rescue his Harry Potter.
Alan, who still has some bottom line in his heart, did not deal with the unicorn situation first in order to complete the task. He first made sure that his classmates did not become interested because of the changes in the plot-Allen also began to treat himself when he returned. The curse of survivorship makes me look like a Ravenclaw again. If I wait for a few Gryffindors and they discover that the color matching of their school uniforms is not easy to explain...
　　 But when Alan returned to the unicorn, his condition looked very bad, and he was moaning painfully on the ground.
　　 "Healing as ever."
As long as the spells he has learned, Alan casts them with his hands, which is very easy to use, but this time the healing spell has failed on the unicorn. It has only a drop in the bucket. You must know that as a mother and sister, both He is a therapist at St. Mungo's Hospital, and he has special family skills for this healing magic.
This surprised Allen, but it was not the time to struggle. Allen tried the curse again, but it still didn't work. He judged that the magic of mysterious people contained curses, and higher-level healing curses were fast. Heals quickly. This kind of advanced healing magic, which sounds like singing, can be effective on cursed wounds. However, as a first-year student, he hasn't mastered it yet, so he made a decisive decision and used physical means to become a unicorn. treatment.
After taking out the healing potions and cursing potions he prepared before, he poured it into the unicorn’s mouth without money, and then applied the hemostatic ointment to the unicorn’s body, and the silver-white blood finally stopped flowing out. Then he didn't worry about pouring it with a few tonics. In fact, if he didn't know that taking some potions at the same time would produce some terrible reactions in a short time, he hadn't planned to stop.
　　 But it seems that in this kind of extravagant style of some local tyrants, the life of this unicorn is no longer a serious problem-and some horseshoes are heard from behind Alan.
"You saved the life of this unicorn." A very powerful voice rang in Allen's ears. Allen turned his head and saw that it was a horseman, his hair was platinum, and his upper body was a face. A handsome male figure with a cream-colored horse body below the waist.
　　 In fact, Allen, who has recognized the other party's identity from the color of the opponent's fur, pretended to be surprised and asked: "Who are you?"
　　 "My name is Firenze. Mars is very bright tonight. The stars indicate my destiny. I must be here tonight. There is something important to our destiny here." Firenze said very seriously.
Allen thought he was talking about Harry. Knowing the character of the other party, he nodded, bowed politely, and said, "Great. I wonder if you can ask your two classmates to take out the forbidden forest? They are there. On the other side, I think he is the person you are looking for...he is the famous Boy Who Lived..."
Although Firenze knew that the little wizard in front of him might have misunderstood him, he was more friendly to humans, and he was very willing to help. He made a long series of screams to the unicorn still on the ground: "Guy Ya, this human wizard should be reliable. Fate tells me that you can trust him and I will come back to you later."
After finishing talking, Firenze ran to the side. He came to Harry who was sober. After a few explanations, without waiting for them to react, he bent his front leg directly~EbookFREE.me~ put his body on the side. Low, used the two hands of the human part to fish up the two little boys and put them on his own back, then stepped away and started running.
　　 Later, the sound of horseshoes came from the other side of the clearing in front of them.
　　 The horseman Ronan and Bain rushed out of the bushes, their belly undulating violently, dripping with sweat.
　　 "Firenze!" Bain roared, "What are you doing? You let two people ride on your back! Don't you feel ashamed? Are you an ordinary mule?"
"Have you seen who this is?" Firenze stopped, so that his companion could see who was on his back. "This is the boy from the Potter's family. Let him leave this place quickly. Forest, the sooner the better."
"The other one is not!" Bain muttered angrily as he watched Fletcher, "Remember, Firenze, we swear we must never defy the will of heaven. Didn't we see what the planetary movement showed? Omen?"
　　 "I believe Firenze thinks he did it out of good intentions." Ronan said in his sad voice, digging the soil with his hoof anxiously.
"For good intentions! What does that matter have to do with us? The horse people care about the predictions of the astrology! We don't need to be like donkeys, running around behind the humans who are lost in our forest!" Bain directed towards Firenze roar.
　　 Firenze was so angry that he stood upright on his hind legs suddenly, Floyd hugged Harry tightly, and Harry had to hold Firenze's shoulder tightly so that he did not fall off.
"Go and see for yourself, Gaia was saved, and our destiny has undergone a new change. We horses will be given clearer instructions and get closer to our destiny." Firenze finished speaking and turned lightly. Go ahead, rushing deep into the woods with Harry and Freg, leaving Ronan and Bain behind.
