The man behind Hogwarts
Chapter 181 Tracking
In the dark forest, Haige said that he wanted the centaur Ronan to use divination to find the whereabouts of the Red Giant Bee.
William is looking forward to it. He has only heard about various divination methods in the magical world, but unfortunately he has never witnessed it with his own eyes.
If you can see the divination skills of the centaurs, tonight's trip will be worthwhile.
No, it cannot be said that this trip was worthwhile. The agreement with Aragog alone has already reaped a lot of benefits; if he can witness the centaurs' divination again, it will be a huge profit.
"Divination is not for this situation." Ronan the Centaur refused without mercy.
Hagrid was puzzled: "You can't use divination in this situation? Then why do you usually do divination?"
"Destiny! I have seen the coming turmoil in the magical world, now it is just the calm before the storm."
"Unrest? What unrest?"
"If you could see it clearly, it wouldn't be fate."
Ronan continued enigmatically: "The stars in the sky have already told me the changes in fate. We, the centaurs, just need to wait until our fate comes."
Hagrid sighed helplessly.
Winking at William, "Look, I'm just saying they won't give you a definite answer at all."
In the past, when he asked his centaur friends questions, they also spoke in the same tone.
Even if they know the real answer, they won't tell you directly, which may be part of their fun.
Even though he knew Ronan would be the answer, Hagrid was still a little disappointed.
"Okay, Ronan, you can continue admiring the moon and observing destiny. We are going to find the Red Giant Bee." Hagrid didn't want to talk more.
"Where do you want to start looking?"
"Let's continue to check forward. Maybe they are going all the way to the right to leave the Forbidden Forest."
"No, I suggest you search on the edge first." Ronan said: "It is the territory of our centaurs. If the red giant hornet enters, we will definitely notice it, so there will be no movement now."
He then whispered: "What's more, you are not suitable to go in now."
Hagrid frowned and muttered: "You don't want to see me so much now..."
In the past, the relationship was just not very friendly.
Now they are not even allowed to enter, which shows that the centaurs are becoming more and more dissatisfied with themselves.
"You know the reason." Ronan said calmly: "But don't worry about Hagrid. It's just that some centaurs are like this. Others still like you very much."
"Oh, okay, let me check the outside first."
The periphery he was talking about was not the periphery of the Forbidden Forest, but the periphery of the gathering place of centaurs.
Although the centaurs regard the entire Forbidden Forest as their territory, the entire centaurs group is not large in number, and even if they were all spread out, they would not occupy much space.
In addition, horse people live in groups, so in a real sense, only the front territory is the core territory of the horse people.
Before the two of them could move, Ronan stepped forward with a bow and arrow and said, "I'll be with you."
His horse has a slender body and his hooves move faster than Hagrid. "I am more familiar with this place than you are."
Hagrid nodded in agreement.
One man, half giant, one horse, one dog.
In this way, several people formed a multi-racial team and began patrolling along the centaur territory.
Ronan trotted ahead, while Hagrid and William ran after him.
When it comes to speed, horse people have a unique advantage in this regard, and they should also have very good eyesight.
There was no light illuminating him as he ran in front of him, only the moonlight, and he could run in the woods as if on flat ground.
After running a certain distance, Ronan suddenly stopped.
"what happened?"
"Shh!" He gestured to silence and said softly: "There is movement, be alert!"
Several people immediately became alert, lowered their breathing, and looked toward the darkness ahead.
William took out his wand and cast a "super-sensory spell" on himself in a low voice. This spell could enhance his sense of the five senses and even make people's souls clear.
When he went to the Acromantula's lair, he also cast this spell, and the effect was remarkable.
Even in a tree hole at that time, he could sense the spiders crawling in the nest with his super five senses.
It's just that this curse is a continuous consumption, and he will be lifted immediately after leaving the lair.
"Super strong induction!"
After reciting the curse, invisible power blessed William.
The moment he opened his eyes, he looked through the dark woods and saw several strange things.
Ronan looked back and said jokingly: "You can also use psychic spells, which is good. Did you see anything?"
"Red giant bee." William said warmly: "Although the color of the bee can't be seen clearly, it is about the size of a fist. I'm afraid we are the only ones looking for the red giant bee."
The strange thing he saw was the red giant wasp.
About a few hundred meters in front of the woods, several red giant bees were flying around in the darkness.
"Can the super-sensory spell allow you to see so clearly?" Ronan asked doubtfully. He knew how to use the super-sensory spell himself. When did this spell have such a strong effect?
"My own eyesight is also good, and with the blessing of the super-sensory spell, I can see farther."
Ronan didn't doubt it.
After observing for a moment, William told Hagrid what he saw.
There were a total of six red giant bees visible in the field of vision. They were slowly wandering among the trees, gradually deviating to the right.
According to their speed, they will probably enter the territory of the centaurs soon.
"Three, okay, not a lot." Hagrid breathed a sigh of relief, then asked puzzledly: "Why only three? There were more than just these giant red bees that attacked Professor Quirrell last time."
Hearing this, Ronan's expression changed. Was a professor attacked by a giant red bee?
Hagrid analyzed: "It seems that the Red Giant Bee has separated its team, and the ones here are just part of it."
"Ronan, what do you think?"
Ronan, who was called out, first calmed down, and then said: "The red giant bees are very vengeful. If we want to kill them, we must catch them all, otherwise no one will be able to withstand their crazy revenge."
"Yes, let's follow these three giant red bees first and see if we can find their large army."
The three of them made a decision and quietly followed the Red Giant Bee.
Fortunately, the giant red bee looked quite leisurely, flying for a while and stopping, without flying very high, so the few people could follow it calmly.
After walking for a while, William asked aloud: "Why do the red giant bees keep flying into your territory? Are there other red giant bees inside?"
"Not necessarily." Ronan guessed: "The red giant bees do not have a queen bee. They sometimes go their own way, but they come together when they migrate. They may just be looking for food now."
While tracking, they occasionally chatted, and William discovered that although Ronan looked serious, he had a quite amiable personality.
Seeing that William was interested in astronomy, he told William about their centaurs' research in astronomy.
According to Ronan, their centaurs are unique in the world in their research on astronomy.
It took them centuries to uncover the secrets behind planetary motion.
Moreover, they like to use astronomical knowledge for divination and use divination materials to observe the fate of the world.
"What is the destiny of the world?"
Is the research on horse people so advanced? It sounds unclear.
"Then what is the fate of this research?" William asked.
"Destiny is always full of mystery, and no one can say that it can be completely controlled."
Ronan sighed, and then said: "We all agree that although the magical world is currently quiet and peaceful, it will soon become turbulent and full of darkness."
Perhaps because he got acquainted with William, Ronan became interested and began to talk freely.
Suddenly, the two found that the situation in front of them changed suddenly.
The three giant red bees that were flying slowly suddenly accelerated and rushed straight into the forest.
"What's wrong?" Hagrid asked worriedly when he saw the two men were serious.
"Let's catch up quickly." A flash of uneasiness flashed through Ronan's heart, and he took a step forward to catch up.
William called to Hagrid to follow him and explained what he had just seen on the way.
"I suspect that the reason why these three red giant bees are acting like this is that they may have received signals from other red giant bees."
Run all the way.
The speed of the red giant bee flying at full speed is extremely astonishing. Even if Ronan chases with all his strength, he can only watch the red giant bee fly away in vain, and he cannot catch up.
Behind him, William and Hagrid were running with great strides.
Hagrid ran with all his strength, but not only could he not catch up with the Red Giant Bee, but the distance between him and Ronan was getting further and further away.
"William, you follow me first, I will be there soon."
After running for a few minutes, Hagrid was surprised to find that William still had some energy left. It turned out that he had not used all his strength when running before.
This discovery shocked him.
What kind of physique is this? Can a young human wizard have such speed and endurance?
Can't do it!
Could it be that William also has blood from other races?
Watching William surpass him, Hagrid became even more curious, "Although giants have never been known for their speed, they are not satisfied with their speed. Not only do they have the strength and endurance of giants, but they are also smaller and more flexible than real giants."
"This is no match for William. What is his bloodline?"
Regardless of Hagrid's guesses, William ran and finally caught up with Ronan. At this time, he stopped where he was and turned his head to look around.
"What's the matter, what did you find?"
Ronan said in a deep voice: "We lost the chase. The Red Giant Bee changed direction midway."
Hearing this, William also looked solemn.
In this case, even magic cannot find any trace of the Red Giant Bee.
When facing the Potter Warthog, he could still use Trace Appearance to see the footprints, but now that he was facing the Red Giant Bee, Trace Appearance couldn't even be used.
"Why do you think the Red Giant Bee suddenly flew at full speed?" Ronan looked at William.
In the previous conversation, he found that the little wizard was mentally mature, calm and wise, so he couldn't help but ask him what he thought.
William lowered his chin silently, thinking slightly.
"I don't know the habits of the red giant bee, but I know the habits of the common bee."
"If an ordinary bee suddenly flies at full speed like this, it must have received the same kind of message."
"Either we found food, or we found an enemy."
food……
enemy……
Ronan felt justified.
Although the red giant wasp is a magical creature, some biological instincts should be common.
What if it's food?
"The food of red giant bees is the blood of animals. It may be that other red giant bees hunt the food."
If it's an enemy?
"No, it's probably a battle with my fellow tribesmen!" Ronan exclaimed, his uneasiness becoming more and more obvious.
He immediately cast a firework magic in the sky to summon his fellow tribesmen.
Regardless of whether it was as he guessed, he had to tell the other centaurs the news.
The red giant hornet is extremely dangerous. If a single centaur encounters it, its chances of survival are slim.
In the dark sky, a centaur's fireworks bloomed.
Throughout the Forbidden Forest, centaurs scattered around saw the fireworks and rushed to Ronan's position.
In the center of the centaurs' territory, there were more centaurs resting, but they were immediately awakened by fireworks.
"what happened!"
"It's Ronan. He may be in danger."
"Gather everyone quickly!"
Not long after the fireworks were set off, William showed a dumbfounded expression.
"Ronan, look what that is."
Ronan looked in the direction of his finger. He couldn't see clearly at first, but when he saw it clearly, his expression was stunned.
"Why is the Red Giant Bee here?"
In the forest to the left of the two of them, several giant red bees gradually emerged.
However, the first thing the two saw was not a red giant bee, but a sika deer.
Five red giant bees slowly followed the sika deer, neither biting it nor letting it leave, as if they were grazing.
"Are they stocking up on food?"
"That's right. It's not like you're raising a pet."
The two looked at each other, both feeling dumbfounded.
"What about the fireworks signal you just made? I'm afraid it has alerted all the centaurs." William said with a smile.
"There has been a misunderstanding." Embarrassment appeared on Luonan's square face: "It's okay. I can send another signal to tell them not to come. It's all a misunderstanding."
He pointed to the sky again, and there was another centaur firework.
It looked no different from the previous one, and William didn't know how the centaurs understood the various meanings from it.
After setting off the fireworks, the two hurriedly hid aside to make way for the sika deer and the red giant bee.
"There are five red giant wasps now. I don't know if this is all of them." Ronan said.
"Probably not." William lowered his voice: "Hagrid said he saw seven or eight of them at that time."
"Is that when your professor was attacked?"
"Yes."
"Tell me what's going on."
Ronan seemed to be very interested in Quirrell's attack and insisted on asking William to tell him.
William could only briefly describe what happened.
"He was stung three times by the giant red bee and didn't die. His life is really great." Ronan sighed: "Ordinary animals can basically be declared dead as long as they are stung once by the giant red bee."
Although the poison of the Red Giant Bee Tail Stinger is not as strong as that of the Acromantula, it is still notorious for its viciousness.
Even for a creature with a strong constitution like a centaur, being bitten three times by a red giant hornet would be quite dangerous, let alone a wizard with a human body.
As they talked, the two of them talked about the Red Giant Bee.
Ronan said that he knew something about red giant bees, and knew that the most powerful thing about red giant bees was not their poison, but their terrifying speed.
Although the red giant wasp is poisonous, the three needles are not poisonous. It is Quirrell. Compared with the Acromantula, it is undoubtedly much friendlier.
If it was not the red giant wasp that bit Quirrell, but the Acromantula; when Hagrid arrived, it would be his turn to collect the body.
"The most terrifying thing about the Red Giant Hornet is its speed."
"It can fly, and its flying speed is very fast. Even among all magical creatures, it ranks among the best."
"Even I can't catch up..."
With a low voice and a generous tone, Ronan couldn't help but admire him as he recalled the scene where he was thrown away by the giant red bee just now.
"Why hasn't Hagrid arrived yet? The Red Giant Bee is about to fly away."
"It should be soon."
Talk about Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrives. Hagrid finally arrived after following the traces of the two.
The three people exchanged information, and they all believed that the swarm of red giant bees was not all there, so they could not take action and had to continue to follow them.
Wait until all the red giant bees gather together, and then catch them all in one fell swoop.
"Huh? Catch them all in one fell swoop?"
Ronan said something was wrong. He didn't react before, but now he was extremely surprised.
"Hagrid, are you going to kill all the Red Giant Bees? How is this possible?"
In the chat with William just now, he mentioned that the speed of the red giant hornet is amazing, and it is flying speed, not the running speed of several people, so why catch them all in one fell swoop?
Get a net?
Seeing Ronan's eyes as if he was mentally retarded, Hagrid glared back and said proudly: "Of course I have a way."
"What can I do, come and listen."
"Don't worry, you will know when the red giant bees gather together."
At this time, Hagrid started to tease Ronan.
In the past, I always listened to the horse people talking about all kinds of things and talking about all kinds of things.
Now it's finally my turn to shine.
Hagrid chuckled.
The smiles in the two black beetle-like eyes were about to overflow.
Tracking all the way, several people didn't have time to take a breath. The red giant hornet flew in a circle, sometimes to the left, sometimes to the right, no definite number.
"What if they never get together." After chasing for a while, William suddenly asked.
Ronan heard this and looked at Hagrid.
He frowned and said, "You don't want us to chase him from night to day."
"No, no, the Red Giant Bees will definitely get together."
"hope so."
One night passed, and the morning sunshine slowly climbed into the sky.
Ronan's face was gloomy, and the red horse's body looked red under the sunlight, red and pure.
"Hagrid."
"Uh..." Hagrid tugged his beard and said sadly, "It's really strange why the Red Giant Bee doesn't sleep at night, and he doesn't want to reunite with his family."
"I thought this was no time to joke! The red giant bee is still flying, do we still need to track it?"
William rubbed his eyes and reconciled in the play: "It is indeed a bit abnormal. The red giant bees obviously have the habit of staying in the day and emerging at night, but now that it is dawn, they are still flying. Maybe there is some special reason."
Several people started tracking the red giant hornet around 1 a.m.
As the sun comes out now, it's probably past six o'clock.
Throughout the night, the red giant bees never stopped, driving the sika deer back and forth until now.
Ron reluctantly nodded in agreement, but his face still looked unhappy.
He looked at the woods ahead and said, "I can't keep tracking. I have to go back."
Accompanying Hagrid to track him all night long was the limit of what he could do.
William patted Hagrid on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Thank you Ronan, you can go back first. You have been busy all night, so go back and have a rest."
"Yes, Ronan, thank you." Haige said.
