Hogwarts: From Squibs to Greatness

Chapter 39 The Unicorn Attack

John left the principal's office as he did last time.

"John!" Harry saw John immediately.

After all, they saw Professor Sprout, Professor Snape and the Slytherins coming out just now, except John.

Subconsciously, Harry and the others were worried about whether John was really about to be fired, which made them even more anxious, and they never took their eyes off the stone monster for a moment.

In the end, John still came out. If it was later, Harry and the others would really follow Hermione's arrangement and mobilize students from other colleges to protest together, asking not to expel John.

"Are you all right, John?" Harry asked anxiously, and Ron and Hermione also looked at him anxiously.

Seeing the worried expressions of the three, John patted Harry on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Don't worry, I'm fine. I was just fined to patrol the Forbidden Forest for a week. It's not a big problem to have Hagrid here."

Hearing this, Harry and the others suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. Such a punishment was indeed not a big problem.

"Great! It's great not to be expelled!" Ron cheered happily, "I just said, Principal Dumbledore will not wrong John!"

Hermione gave Ron a blank look, and she didn't know who was whispering beside her like a mosquito just now, making her ears callused.

Several people laughed and left the eighth floor together, but Harry and the others didn't notice that John had secretly glanced in a certain direction when he left.

And not long after they left, a low whisper suddenly appeared in the unoccupied corridor in that direction.

"Lily..."

For a moment, the time flies like a shuttle, and soon night falls.

As the sky is full of stars hanging in the sky, the little stars and the candlelight of the castle complement each other.

A flickering flame floated from the castle.

Looking carefully, I saw Filch holding a lantern, like the most loyal servant, leading the way with a devout smile.

Behind him, John was wearing a slim battle suit, holding a magic wand and wearing the Elen Mum Ninety-two Style, his magic power surged and he was ready to fight at any time.

Soon the two came to Hagrid's cabin.

At this moment, Hagrid had already put on his equipment and was holding the magic crossbow that John had given him. He stood in the open space and watched the two people coming. Fang Fang was also neatly dressed and sitting at Hagrid's feet.

Only when you get closer can you see that the bowstring of the magic crossbow has been tightened, and the magic arrow is shining under the firelight.

Looking at it this way, you can indeed feel the chilling aura from Hagrid, but when Hagrid opened his mouth, this aura disappeared
"John!" Hagrid said briskly, "Come on, I'll wait for you, let's go to the Forbidden Forest."

"I'll be back to pick you up at dawn, Mr. Williams," Filch said respectfully, turning his head.

After speaking, Filch turned around and walked towards the castle along the path he came from.

"Come on, it's a long night." Hagrid said something poetic that he didn't even notice.

John nodded, took the oil lamp that Hagrid handed over, and followed behind Hagrid. At the same time, Fang also started to follow John.

Hagrid led John to the edge of the Forbidden Forest, held up the lamp high, and a small path that gradually disappeared into the depths of the black forest came into view.

Looking along the path into the forest, one can see that the path meanders forward and finally disappears into a deep darkness. The cold wind blowing from it blows the tip of John's hair, which looks like jumping sparks under the lights.

Telling John to be careful and to keep up with him, the two walked along the path into the Forbidden Forest one after the other.

The night was already cold, and the Forbidden Forest covered by the dense canopy was even more chilly, but this was not a problem for John and Hagrid at all. The two walked through the Forbidden Forest for a long time without saying a word.

I thought tonight would be a calm day like a normal day, but soon John and Hagrid discovered the situation.

At this moment, they squatted on the ground, looking at a pool of mercury-like blood in front of them. In John's magical vision, this silver-white blood shone with a holy aura.

Hagrid dipped his hand in, and the blood stained Hagrid's finger, turning it silvery white.

"Silver-white? This is the blood of a unicorn. It seems that a unicorn was injured by something, and it was seriously injured. We must try to find that poor unicorn and relieve it from the pain."

Hagrid's face was serious, because apart from the pool of blood, looking forward, he could find silvery white flashes on the ground illuminated by the lights.

But just as Hagrid anxiously started to follow the blood trail, a painful wail came from a certain direction.

Hagrid's complexion changed drastically: "This is the voice of a unicorn."

After finishing speaking, Hagrid rushed towards the direction of howling with his magic crossbow, and John naturally followed.

Although Hagrid looks bulky due to his large physique, in fact Hagrid is not dissatisfied with his running speed at all, especially since he is familiar with the Forbidden Forest, he is sprinting in the Forbidden Forest as if walking on flat ground. Nothing can stop this half-blood giant who loves magical animals .

Of course, for John, who has received military training and has surpassed ordinary physical fitness, it is not difficult to keep up with Hagrid.

Soon John saw Hagrid in front of him let out an angry roar, and raised the magic crossbow in his hand.

call out!
When the trigger was pulled, the bowstring exploded, and a crossbow bolt with a stun spell cut through the air and headed firmly towards the target.

On the edge of the creek in front, the unicorn, which represents purity, is lying on the ground in pain. Under the moonlight, the terrible wound on the unicorn's abdomen can be clearly seen.

Flesh turned out, dripping with blood.

And not far from the unicorn, a mysterious man covered in a black robe and wearing a hood is walking towards the unicorn step by step with a wand in his hand.

The target of Hagrid's crossbow is this man in black!
At the same time that John saw the man in black, he raised his wand, and the magic of shining fire went straight to him.

"Thunderbolt explosion!"

"boom!!!"

The arrows and magic hit the black-robed man almost at the same time, and the flames from the violent explosion instantly engulfed the black-robed man.

But John noticed that at the moment of impact, the figure of the man in black twisted, and the attack just now had no effect.

"Armor protection!"

Putting a shield on the rewound Hagrid, John scanned his surroundings, alert for any incoming attack.

Sure enough, in the next second, a voice full of killing intent came from Hagrid's left.

"Avada Kedavra!!!!!"

A green light burst out of the darkness, the darkness of death illuminating the faces of Hagrid and John.

John, who had been prepared for this, quickly waved his wand, and a dirt wall rose in front of Hagrid, blocking the killing curse.

Just when Hagrid was still in shock, John, who realized that the man in black was about to apparate again, released the anti-apparition spell specially learned for this point.

"Forbidden Shadow"

Seeing that the next second after John was released, the man in black, whose body was still a little distorted, returned to its original shape.

Almost at the same time, both John and the man in black raised their wands, and the magic light burst out.

In the next second, the light of the Killing Curse lit up again, and the green beam of light came straight at John, but was immediately caught by the rock shield transformed by John's transfiguration.

Just when the man in black was about to cast a spell again, he heard a gunshot, and a blue magic bullet pierced through the left shoulder of the man in black.

The blood spattered on the surrounding grass, which was as bright red as the light of Elenum's ninety-two style.

The gunshot rang out again, but the man in black robe who was on guard sharply cast a transformation technique, turning into a huge rock to block the attack.

"Thunderbolt explosion!"

The violent explosion directly shattered the boulder, and the short-distance explosion directly knocked the black-robed man into the air.

But at this moment, John saw a surge of sticky shadows attached to the black-robed man, and then the wave of magic came from the black-robed man.

John is familiar with this wave, and he has released it many times in practice.

This is the wave that only belongs to the end of all curses!

Backed by powerful magic power, this spell directly dispelled the anti-apparition cast by John.

The moment the magic was undone, the man in black disappeared in a twist, and only the blood left on the leaves proved that he had just existed.

In fact, for John, it is not difficult to prevent the other party from apparating again. It is even easy to kill the man in black, that is, Quirrell who is possessed by Voldemort.

But now that he has made an agreement with Dumbledore, he can only temporarily let that guy Quirrell go.

After all, in the battle just now, John didn't use the magic of Hal's world from the beginning to the end, but only used the power of Tanya's world and the magic of the main world.

It's just that John really didn't expect that Quirrell would be so stubborn that he wouldn't even cast the Iron Armor Curse.

After all, when he was in trouble in the Soviet Union, John already knew that once he was prepared, the magic bullets in Tanya's world would have no effect on wizards even if sniper techniques were applied, and he could block them with an Iron Armor Curse.

Looking around vigilantly, there was nothing to hide in the magic field of vision, and it was just relying on this that made John save Hagrid in the first place.

After a long time, the sticky shadow no longer appeared around, so John pulled Hagrid who was still sitting on the ground to check on the unicorn.

Although Hagrid, who was rescued by John, was still in shock, he quickly calmed down and followed behind John.

Seeing the wound up close, the kind ranger burst into tears and knelt in grief beside the unicorn, howling in pain from the wound.

Hagrid wanted to heal the unicorn, but the unicorn was so badly hurt that the potion Hagrid brought had no effect

"No one will do anything to unicorns, except those crazy people who don't want to die." Hagrid's heart was heavy, and the injury was beyond recovery.

But just as he was about to accompany the unicorn for the last journey, he saw John squatting down and putting his hand on the unicorn's neck.

Only then did Hagrid notice the Raven Staff, which was completely different from the wand in John's hand.

As the raven spread its wings and wanted to fly, the ancient and sacred spell was chanted from John's mouth, and the magic power began to be released along John's palm, and the conduction generated by contact formed a bridge connecting John and the unicorn.

"Great life, please erase all pain"

Under Hagrid's shocked gaze, John's palm lit up with a green light that was completely different from the Killer Curse.

If the green color of the death curse represents painful death, then the green color in John's hand at this moment is the life of hope.

In this radiance of life, the wound on the unicorn's abdomen gradually healed.

Following John's treatment, at some point, a group of centaurs appeared not far from John and Hagrid, looking at the miracle light in their eyes from a distance.

　The anti-apparition spell "Forbidden Blocking Shadow" is my second creation, and it is not mentioned in the original book
