Hogwarts: I'm a model wizard
Chapter 769 Black Forest (1 more chapter in the afternoon) (page 12)
In a jungle with dense trees, under the moonlight, the leaves on the top layer seemed to be coated with a layer of silvery brilliance. However, because the branches and leaves were too lush, they blocked all the moonlight. The trunk of the tree was dark with only sporadic branches. A light the size of a coin loomed in the breeze.
This is also the origin of the name Black Forest.
And not only at night, even during the day it seems very dark here.
However, this night, a rustling sound suddenly came from the silent black forest, as if someone was stepping on the thick fallen leaves, and then trampled on the dead branches.
This sudden noise disturbed some birds and small animals that appeared at night, and they all came out of their hiding places and ran to other hiding places where they felt safe... The silent black forest suddenly became alive for a short time.
"It's really hard to walk here." Kyle couldn't help complaining as he pulled his feet out of the soft pile of leaves.
"It's always been like this. Once you get used to it, you won't fall into it again." Newt's voice came from the side.
He seemed to know the black forest very well. He could walk on clean and solid ground every time and move nimbly between the trees.
Unlike Kyle, not only did he get his feet stuck in the leaves after taking two steps, but he almost hit a tree several times.
"I don't like it here!" Kyle sighed.
"Most wizards don't like it," Newt said. "The dense trees here will have a great impact on the accuracy of the spell. The threat of the spell is weakened to a minimum, and it will be useless no matter how many people come. But It is precisely because of this that this place has become a favorite base camp for some dark creatures.”
"So, are there really werewolves here?" Kyle asked.
"Not only are there, but there are many." Newt said, "Because it is safe enough. Unless the wizard is willing to make great efforts to shovel all these trees, no one can catch up with the werewolves here. Slowly, the Black Forest has become The headquarters of the werewolf."
While talking, Newt seemed to have stepped on something. He slowly squatted down and picked up a bone of an unknown animal from the leaves.
The bones were not big and seemed to belong to a hare or some kind of bird.
Newt wiped away the dirt on the outside, revealing the bite marks inside.
"Oh, look at this, these are the teeth marks left by the werewolf," Newt said.
Kyle also moved closer.
But the surroundings were too dark, and Newt refused to use the lighting spell. He could only barely see that there were indeed bite marks on it, that's all.
"Are you sure it's a werewolf?" Kyle asked, "Is it possible it's some other animal?"
"No." Newt shook his head, "These are the teeth marks left by werewolves before they transformed. They are completely different from animals. It seems that we have already entered their hunting range."
Newt dropped the bone in his hand. He raised his head cautiously and looked around.
Kyle also became excited immediately.
It has been almost a week since I came to the Black Forest, and now I have finally gained something.
It all started half a month ago.
About two weeks after Kyle returned to Grimmauld Place, they received news that Lupine was rushed to St. Mungo's because of serious injuries.
And the initiator is the werewolf.
Everyone knows that there are werewolves among the Death Eaters. Ever since Fenrir Greyback was captured in a car accident at Hogwarts, there have been several major disagreements among the werewolves.
Later, some of the werewolves chose to leave and withdraw from the war due to Lupine's persistent lobbying, while the other more extreme and cruel group united, seriously injured Lupine and escaped, completely surrendering to Voldemort.
Recently, they appear every full moon night, either in villages where wizards live or on Muggle streets. These werewolves will attack everyone they see indiscriminately.
Their strong bodies and thick fur allow them to ignore most magic. Sometimes, more than a dozen wizards will be caught or bitten by them in a night.
If they were Muggles, the number would be even higher.
Moreover, these werewolves are very cunning. They only move on full-moon nights, and their appearance is completely random. The people from the Order of the Phoenix tried to ambush them in advance but failed.
Perhaps for revenge, half a month ago, these werewolves planned a sneak attack on Lupine, who they considered a werewolf traitor.
If Tonks hadn't sensed something was wrong and rushed over with people in time, Lupine might not even have a chance to be sent to St. Mungo's.
Kyle still remembers what Lupine looked like when he saw him at St. Mungo's... He was covered in bandages, and there was even an obvious dent in his shoulder, obviously from a bite.
Sirius was so angry that he wanted to seek revenge from the werewolf, but was stopped by everyone.
Because Sirius is only one person, even if his Animagus form is not afraid of werewolves' claws and bites, he cannot withstand large numbers.
Not to mention that the Animagus form cannot use magic, not even a real werewolf like Lupine. A dog trying to deal with them is basically equivalent to wishful thinking.
But just as everyone was arguing about how to take revenge on Lupine, what everyone didn't expect was that Newt suddenly came.
When he slowly opened the door to No. 12 Grimmauld Place, everyone in the room was startled. Fortunately, Mrs. Weasley had met Newt at King's Cross Station last year, so nothing happened. joke.
The famous Newt Scamander, everyone is curious about why this legendary wizard who has disappeared for a long time suddenly comes here.
Until Newt revealed his purpose...to bring someone to solve the werewolf problem.
Before he could finish speaking, Sirius was the first to jump out and wanted to go with him, but his request was politely rejected by Newt.
It was really tactful. As a sociopath, Newt had little experience in rejecting others and could only hesitantly say that he was not suitable.
Sirius was naturally dissatisfied at first. He believed that his Animagus was fully capable of playing a role and he was also the most suitable candidate present.
Fortunately, other people knew this well and stepped forward to persuade Sirius, saying that he should stay at St. Mungo's to take care of Lupin.
Anyone with any brains knows who Newt is looking for... After all, except for Kyle, no one in the Order of the Phoenix is familiar with Newt, and no one has even seen him before.
And this is indeed the case, Newt came to find Kyle.
In his words, when Chris graduated, he started running around to solve the werewolf threat. Now that Kyle has graduated, this job naturally fell on his head.
To a certain extent, this can be considered a family inheritance.
So Kyle followed Newt to the Black Forest and looked for traces of werewolves.
I have to say, this process is really boring.
"Should we keep looking?"
Kyle raised his head and looked around, "How about we make some noise to attract the werewolf. I also have cows and sheep in my box. The werewolf should like it, as long as we stay by..."
"There are never cows in the Black Forest, Kyle."
