All things are three at Hogwarts

Chapter 167 The Lifeless Forbidden Forest (Revised)

The little wizards are all discussing the secret chamber, the heir, the petrified person...

Everyone began to take out the amulets again, including the glasses that Allen had asked Penello to distribute.

The sun finally set behind the clouds, and Benny spread his wings and flew into the increasingly thick twilight haze, carrying the letter from Alan to Gaia.

Its figure gradually became blurred, and finally disappeared under the low clouds surrounding the setting sun, and could no longer be distinguished.

The sky turned red for a moment, then darkened, and Venus began to blink in the sky.

Late at night, Allen went to bed as usual and waited until Edward fell asleep before he got up from the bed and got dressed again.

After turning invisible, Allen quickly ran towards the Forbidden Forest.

The walk through the gloomy corridors was not a pleasant one.

Allen had wandered around the castle several times in the middle of the night before, but he had never seen so many people after sunset.

Teachers, prefects and ghosts patrolled the corridors in pairs, looking for anything out of the ordinary.

Allen had to step lightly and move forward cautiously to avoid kicking or knocking over anything and making any noise.

Murphy's Law came into play again. When Allen was about to reach the castle gate, he saw Professor Snape patrolling the door with a gloomy expression.

How to open the heavy oak door smoothly without alerting Professor Snape?

Allen stared at Professor Snape intently, hoping to find an opportunity to distract Professor Snape.

Perhaps because Allen's gaze was too focused, Professor Snape walked towards Allen's direction suspiciously.

Allen quickly backed away, not daring to keep his eyes on Professor Snape.

Professor Snape waved his arms a few times where Alan had been, but of course caught nothing.

Professor Snape sneezed loudly and returned to the door again.

Just when Allen was thinking about taking a detour, Professor Dumbledore came over with a very serious look on his face.

Behind him was a very strange-looking man.

The stranger was short, stocky, with messy gray hair and an anxious look on his face.

His clothes were a strange hodgepodge: pinstriped suit, bright red tie, long black cape, purple pointed boots.

He held a dark green top hat under his arm.

Soon, Alan knew who he was.

"Good evening, Professor Dumbledore! Good evening, Minister Fudge!" Professor Snape showed the courtesy that a gentleman should have.

"Hello, Professor Snape!" Fudge said in a crisp and fast tone. "It's very bad that I have to come. There have been four attacks on Muggles. It's too much and the Ministry of Magic must take action."

"In any case, I hope your actions will be effective." Professor Snape moved out of the way and opened the oak door for them.

Allen's eyes lit up, and the moment the door was about to close, he quickly got out.

Dumbledore and the others were going in the same direction as Allen.

But soon, they can separate.

After passing through the pumpkin patch, Alan continued to the Forbidden Forest, while Professor Dumbledore and Fudge entered Hagrid's hut.

Before they separated, Alan noticed Dumbledore glance in his direction.

Allen had not gone far when he heard the quarrel coming from the hut: "I hope you understand, Connelly, I completely trust Hagrid... Taking Hagrid away will not help at all."

"But you see, Albus, Hagrid's criminal record is working against him. The Ministry of Magic has to take some measures..."

It seems that the Ministry of Magic regards Hagrid as the number one suspect and is going to imprison him in Azkaban!

Alan didn't come forward. If Dumbledore couldn't keep Hagrid, how could he, a little-known wizard, influence the will of the Ministry of Magic?

When the cruel social reality was nakedly placed in front of Allen, Allen suddenly discovered the beauty of power.

Although Allen had never tasted the taste of power, a small fire ignited in his heart.

The hills to the north of the Forbidden Forest were hidden in the darkness. Although the bright moon hung high in the deep night sky, it could not shine into the Forbidden Forest. The layers of branches blocked the moonlight.

"Fluorescence!" Allen had to use a fluorescent spell to light up the road in front of him.

Seeing the forbidden forest in front of him clearly, Allen couldn't help but take a breath of air.

The ground was full of dead, black branches and fallen leaves.

Along the way, Alan lost count of how many dead birds he saw.

The carcasses of these birds were dark and indistinct, and some of them bore traces of bites.

But Allen couldn't tell what animal had left the bite marks.

The deeper Allen walked into the Forbidden Forest, the more terrifying the silence around him felt. There was no other sound, only deathly silence.

The dead trees in the Forbidden Forest snarled around Allen, staring at Allen like ghosts.

Allen did not dare to act rashly. He clenched his wand and moved quickly towards the unicorn settlement with vigilance.

When Alan saw the shining stars again, in this dim light, Gaia fell from the sky.

This instantly added vitality to the forbidden forest, allowing Allen to feel the breath of life again and feel more relaxed.

"Alan, I received your letter and have been waiting for you here." Gaia raised her front hooves and looked very happy.

"Your owl was poisoned, and given the current poisonous atmosphere in the Forbidden Forest, it may have to rest in our settlement for a while before returning."

Before Allen could tell him the purpose of his trip, Gaia said a lot.

"Benny was poisoned?" Alan was worried.

"Don't worry, I have let it drink water mixed with unicorn horn powder. I have to praise it, it is really a conscientious owl. Even though it is highly poisonous, it can still deliver the letter to me. !" Gaia admired Benny very much.

"How did the Forbidden Forest become like this?" Allen asked.

"It's not that monster! The monster that humans locked up in the castle ran out and wreaked havoc in the Forbidden Forest! Wherever it went, birds and beasts disappeared!" Gaia said angrily.

"Benny was poisoned because he encountered this monster?" Allen couldn't help but exclaimed.

"It's possible, but it's also possible that it encountered its remaining venom." Gaia guessed.

"I also passed through this poisoned Forbidden Forest, how come I am safe and sound?" Allen was greatly surprised.

"You forgot! You have been blessed by my father, and you are invulnerable to all poisons!" Gaia reminded Allen angrily.
