A Magical Journey Starting at Hogwarts

Chapter 62 There is an unknown enemy

The Forbidden Forest is composed of countless towering giant trees and various plants. The thin mist in the night makes it look even more eerie, especially the howling of wolves that come from far away from time to time, which makes several people feel uneasy.

Hagrid took the lead, leading a few people along a path into the forest and heading deeper.

Aaron was particularly lucky that he rented a lamp, otherwise he might not even be able to see the road clearly.

After walking for who knows how long, Hagrid frowned when he saw a pool of viscous silver liquid on the ground in front of him.

"What is this?" Harry asked.

"I have seen unicorn blood." Aaron knelt down and twisted a little with his fingers. "The blood is very fresh. It is initially judged that he was seriously injured."

"He's right, a unicorn died a few weeks ago.

The death was extremely miserable, with almost half of the blood in the body drained away.

This is the second one, and all we have to do is find the poor guy and protect it. "

"This is not easy." Aaron thought for a while and said meaningfully: "This forest is very dangerous now, and I'm afraid it's not just animals and plants.

I suggest punishing us at another time, preferably during the day. "

"Yes! It's very convenient during the day, and you don't need a lantern." Hagrid said, "But the unicorn can't wait that long. One night is enough for its condition to change from serious injury to death."

"But I don't think five of us wizards are any less safe than a unicorn."

Draco's expression changed slightly and he couldn't help but swallowed, "What do you mean? Don't scare me!"

"Calm down, at least we are safe now." Aaron patted his shoulder and explained: "Unicorns are noble, and generally this forest will not harm them, and some creatures will even protect them.

But according to Hagrid, one of them was already dead, and the second one was in quite bad condition.

It was a bit abnormal for two unicorns to be attacked in a short period of time. "

"That's why we're here." Hagrid acted matter-of-factly, "That unicorn needs our help, so please be more compassionate."

The corner of Aaron's mouth twitched, "No one is more caring than me.

But the situation is different now. There must be an alien creature in the Forbidden Forest, and it is not weak. No one knows whether it will attack us. "

"How do you know?" Harry asked, "This is all speculation, and since we are following Hagrid, our safety is guaranteed."

Aaron pointed to the silver blood stains on the ground, "The blood of unicorns can prolong life, and before this, unicorns should have never been attacked or even killed one after another in the Forbidden Forest!"

When something goes wrong, it means that something is out of control, and the unknown is the scariest thing. "

After the words fell, several people's faces looked a little unnatural.

They admitted that they were frightened, and from Aaron's words it was not difficult for them to guess who was hunting the unicorn to obtain its blood.

And those who can be so arrogant in the Forbidden Forest are definitely not ordinary people. If they meet, they will not be their opponents.

"Hagrid." Ron looked at him with pleading eyes, "Can we exit this forest? In short, there are only a few of us here. If you don't tell us, no one will know."

"No, confinement is confinement.

Professor McGonagall had already scolded me about Noble, and Dumbledore was caught off guard and in a panic.

I also want to lose face, so I can no longer show favoritism. "

Ron lowered his head bitterly, and the others also looked heavy, knowing that they couldn't escape this time.

"Don't worry too much, it might be a unicorn attacked by a werewolf!"

"Werewolf?

What's worse, the moon is still very round today, and the werewolf's fighting power will be even more violent. "Draco subconsciously took a step back, his back feeling a little chilly.

He originally thought that confinement meant being locked up in a small dark room to write for exams or something, but this confinement was completely beyond his expectation.

It was outrageous enough that the dark room turned into a forbidden forest, but it was even more outrageous now that writing an examination turned into finding a seriously injured and dying unicorn, and possibly being attacked in the process.

It is unacceptable, and one instinctively wants to resist.

"Okay! I know what we are going to do tonight will be dangerous, and I don't want to put anyone in danger.

But this is your punishment, and you cannot escape it. "

"But the problem is that the danger this time is unknown."

Hagrid was stunned for a moment and stared at Aaron seriously, "If everything is already known, what else do we need to do?

The Forbidden Forest is inherently dangerous. Didn't Filch say he would collect your bodies for you? You don't think he's joking, do you?

In addition, even if there is an unknown creature, I can guarantee that it will not be more dangerous than the dark creatures in the Forbidden Forest. "

"Okay!" Aaron spread his hands helplessly, "You're right, we brought this on ourselves."

Hearing this, Hermione looked frustrated and bit her lip subconsciously.

If she hadn't kidnapped Abe, Draco wouldn't have found out, Aaron wouldn't have violated school rules, and they wouldn't have been caught by Filch and Professor McGonagall.

In the final analysis, she has to bear a large part of the responsibility for where they are today.

"As long as you know.

Now we split into two groups to look for it, following the blood trail. "

"Wait, we still need to be divided into groups?" Draco asked in surprise, "Don't tell me that Gryffindor is in one group and Slytherin is in another group?

It's not fair, you have twice the number of us and we would be in danger. "

"I didn't say that.

As long as you are with me or Yaya, the creatures in the Forbidden Forest will not harm you.

And I'm very fair, you, Ron, and Harry are in the same group, Hermione, Aaron, and Teeth are in the same group. "Hagrid said, winking at Hermione and quietly making an OK gesture.

The opportunity is given to you, it’s up to you whether you can seize it or not.

Hermione cast a grateful look and nodded heavily.

I didn't make it yesterday, but I have enough time today. Anyway, I have to apologize first.

"I don't agree." Aaron said, "This grouping feels particularly awkward. I suggest changing to another group.

What happened last night made me very unhappy and I can't let it go easily.

If Hermione and I form a team, it may affect the unity within the team, which is very detrimental. "

"Um..." Hagrid paused, glanced at Hermione, whose eyes were slightly red, took a deep breath and said: "Reject, the objection is invalid.

I am responsible for your confinement, so you must listen to me. "

"Ha! Hagrid, what you are doing now will only make me suspect that you have ulterior motives.

I thought you were a fair person! Now it seems that I was wrong. "

"I..." Hagrid hesitated, feeling war between heaven and man in his heart.

He did have some selfish motives in arranging Hermione and Aaron together, and wanted to resolve the misunderstanding between them.

After all, he is only a twelve-year-old child, so there is something he cannot say clearly.

As long as Hermione sincerely apologizes, the relationship will slowly recover over time, and Aaron doesn't seem to be such a vindictive person.

But now there is a hat called "Justice" on his head, and the hat has a tendency to fly away, which makes him feel very uncomfortable.

"I decided on the team-up between you and Hermione. If you think it's unfair, I can assign you another person.

This is already the limit. "

Aaron didn't raise any objections. Hagrid had already said this, so he had to be sensible and give the other party some face.

"Ron, it's definitely not possible." Aaron glanced at him with some disgust, and then turned his attention to Harry Potter. "It's too troublesome. I have a hunch that it will be particularly troublesome to team up with you."

"Then there is no choice." Draco smiled, "Sure enough, Slytherin must be trustworthy."

"No, don't think too much. In fact, there are other options." Aaron poured a basin of cold water on him, "Hagrid, why don't you and Yaya change it?"

"Me?" Hagrid was stunned for a moment, then waved his hand and said, "This is not possible, absolutely not.

With the abilities of the three of them, the risk would be greatly increased if they were away from me.

It's Malfoy! He is more suitable for your team. "

"This... is okay, it's better than the other two."

Draco's eyes twitched slightly, and he felt inexplicably as if he was being disliked.

"Okay, next, we divide our forces into two groups.

If someone finds the unicorn, they will shoot green sparks, if they are in trouble, they will shoot red sparks.

We'll come over and meet up immediately. Okay, just be more careful! "

After Hagrid finished speaking, he took Harry and Ron to the path on the left, leaving the path on the right for Aaron, Hermione and Draco.

"Huh!" Aaron took a deep breath, put Abe on top of his head, and then looked at Hermione and Draco, "Listen to my command tonight, don't you have any objections?"

"No, I definitely listen to you." Draco said, patting his chest. Aaron was better than him in all aspects, so he had nothing to be dissatisfied with.

"I, I also listen to you." Hermione said immediately.

"You?" Draco glanced at her suspiciously, "It would be nice if you don't leave us and run away alone when you are in danger."

"I won't, definitely not."

"Who knows?"

“That’s enough, that’s why I don’t want to be grouped, it’s too much trouble.

What do you two have to say? Now that we are in the Forbidden Forest, can we all keep a low profile? "

Hermione and Draco looked at each other and closed their mouths in unison.

"now it's right.

Now listen to me, check your shoes, and tie them if they have laces. "As Aaron said, he squatted down and tied his shoelaces.

Hermione didn't waste any words and just followed suit.

Draco was a little confused, "Tie your shoes? Can you tell me why?"

"It's convenient for escaping. You don't really think that everything will be fine if you have a dog like Yaya here!"
