Chapter 90 The Grumpy Unicorn
Tracking powder is often used with tracking water.

Centuries ago, European slave owners usually sprinkled tracking powder on their slaves, which could effectively prevent slaves from escaping.

Similarly, slave traders will also hire a wizard to configure tracking powder and tracking water for them.

The configuration of tracking powder is the simplest, only needing cat's whiskers, mouse's tail and slime.

To track water, collect the dog's snot and mix it with the batter.When tracking, pour a little tracking powder into the tracking water, and you can smell the person with the powder.

But with the collapse of the world tree, the magic power floating on the earth became thinner and thinner, and the tracking powder became difficult to allocate.The reason: Slime can be seen almost everywhere in the garbage dump, and there are fewer and fewer slimes.

"Ed, should we go back to the teacher?"

Harry heard the poachers and asked Ed in a low voice.After all, what happened to them last time in the Three Broomsticks is still vivid in my memory.

Hearing Harry's words, Ed glanced around and found that the three of them were all looking at him worriedly.In the final analysis, these three people are still children, at most they are bolder or deliberately bolder because of being arrogant.

"Okay, let's go back on a broom and tell Dad what happened here."

Logically speaking, first-year freshmen are not allowed to use flying broomsticks, but Harry and Decora are Quidditch players, so they can ride broomsticks.

And Ed, under the influence of Lemay's father for many years, naturally doesn't care about so many rules.As for Ron, with the front three supporting the tank, he has nothing to be afraid of.

But just as Ed took out the broom from his pocket, a roar suddenly came from the north.

Immediately afterwards, a big tree collapsed, and the creaking sound of the trunk being crushed was heard, just like a prehistoric monster colliding in the forest, and more importantly: the sound was getting closer!
The four of them looked in the direction of the sound, and Nan Wan on Ed's shoulder flapped his wings a little uneasy.

After seeing a tree fall with his own eyes, Ed came back to his senses and shouted to everyone, "Quick! Get on the broom! Fly away from here."

After finishing speaking, the four of them sat on the broom and flew into the air.

"Damn it! My broom got stuck in a branch!"

Because the forest is full of foliage, and Ron is not a talented rider, there is no way to completely escape the dense branches and get stuck between two trees.

Ed stopped and looked down. There were four or five people running in the jungle, chasing a gray unicorn?And the unicorn, which was originally kind and warm, ran forward like a demon at this time.

When encountering an obstacle, it does not dodge it, and directly pushes it away with its sharp horns.With the sharp corners cast on, even rocks can be smashed into powder, let alone wood.

"Boss! There's a kid riding a broom in that tree!" shouted a skinny poacher who looked like he was waiting.

The bearded boss crossed the huge boulder in front of him, glanced at the top of his head, and saw that Ron was hanging on the tree, his face remained unchanged at all: "Leave him alone, maybe he can help us delay the time. Continue to run forward , lead the unicorn to the giant spider, and let them fight first."

The thin monkey smiled, its cheeks puffed up, and it looked more like a monkey. It grabbed a branch and swung it, landing in front of everyone:

"Boss, you said that there are really unicorns in this world. I thought it was a fairy tale before. Could it be that the little boy riding the broom just now is a wizard?"

The bearded boss continued to run forward blankly: "Don't ask if you shouldn't ask, how did I teach you back then? Stay in awe of the world, it will make you live longer."

That's right, these people are Muggles and can't cast any magic.But they are the top mercenaries in the world, and they are the best among their peers, which is why the bearded beard dared to accept this order.

When they first saw the mission description asking them to capture a unicorn, the bearded man was also taken aback, thinking it was some rich man playing a joke on them for his own children.

This is not groundless. Back then, the bearded man had seen someone who wanted to capture an angel. It is said that the person who took the order captured a child, injected medicine to make it never grow up, and then sewed her wings.

Anyway, as long as they can complete the task, they don't care how crazy the process is.

At the time, the bearded man thought that for this task, he would probably end up entrusting a biological company to forcibly transplant a horn on the white horse's skull.

Unexpectedly, the employer actually provided a video about unicorns, as well as various detailed information, and even prepared a plan for them.

They thought it was a trap prepared by their enemies, but they didn't believe it until they received a package from their employer and used a spell scroll.

Harry saw that Ron was stuck, and the unicorn, which was getting closer to Ron, yelled at Ed and rushed back: "Ed, we have to go back and save Ron!"

"No! If we go back now, we might get hurt!" Decola grabbed Ed's sleeve.

"Nanwan, help me."

After Ed finished speaking, Nanwan flew down, and at the same time Harry grabbed Ron, a ball of flames spewed out from Nanwan's mouth, covering Harry and Ron like a streamer, and the two closed their eyes reflexively .

"Ed, even if we don't save Ron, we can't kill them, right?" Decora whispered after seeing this scene.

Ed looked at Decola in surprise. Could it be that he was a cruel person in Decora's heart?
"You think too much."

The flames washed over Harry and Ron without harming them a bit, and instead burned the surrounding branches to help them clear a passage.

"Come on!"

Harry, who was the first to open his eyes, found that he was not on fire. He pulled Ron and was about to fly away. The unicorn on the ground jumped up with red eyes and almost bit Harry's clothes.

As the caster, Nan Wan was taking back the flames. Seeing that Ron and Harry hadn't called out yet, they flew out on horseback.

"Why are you in a hurry!" Nan Wan took back the last spark that was burning on the branch, and hurriedly flew over.

But it was too late, Ron's broom still had sparks on it, and the fire took advantage of the wind to drag out a thick smoke.

Before Nan Wan flew over, Ron's broom could no longer be controlled. If Harry hadn't grabbed it, Ron would probably have fallen.

With the help of Ed and Decora, Ron sat on Harry's broom and watched the burning broom falling to the ground with thick smoke, and was finally crushed by the violent unicorn.Ron said sadly:
"Ed, I may not be able to pay back the broom money now, can I pay back the money in batches? I promise to pay you half of the pocket money every month."

"Need not……"

Before they finished speaking, the brooms under Ed and the others began to shake uncontrollably and crazily.

What was even more frightening was that their brooms began to descend uncontrollably, while the unicorn was still wandering in place, with a blue-gray light shining on its sharp horn.
