Ancient wizards return to Hogwarts

Chapter 86 Daphne, a diligent and thrifty housekeeper

Hagrid took his hound Fang and three young wizards into the Forbidden Forest. He led the three little wizards into the forbidden forest. A figure gradually emerged from the edge of Hagrid's hut.

Rice looked at the backs of the four people and the dog and raised his eyebrows: Minerva McGonagall was so wild that she actually sent the first-year students into the Forbidden Forest.

Even a thousand years ago, this kind of operation was very explosive. A first-year wizard is not enough to deal with various emergencies in the Forbidden Forest, but with Hagrid, an experienced gamekeeper, following him, nothing big will happen.

Les cast the Disillusionment Curse on himself again and followed quietly - after all, he was entering the Forbidden Forest, and he still needed to follow to avoid any accidents. By the way, he can also observe Daphne's performance in the Forbidden Forest and make an assessment of her strength.

Daphne remained calm on the face, but was anxious in her heart.

Unlike the ignorant Harry and the stubborn Ron, she was very aware of the risks of going deep into the Forbidden Forest.

Among other things, Rice told her the story of how the four founders opened up wasteland in the Forbidden Forest when they first established Hogwarts.

Such a large forest and close to the natural water source of Black Lake is a paradise for magical animals. Although Hogwarts is located on a cliff, it is not geographically isolated from the Forbidden Forest. So why haven't magical animals escaped from the Forbidden Forest to Hogwarts Castle for thousands of years?

The answer is that all magical animals that dared to do so were eliminated by the four founders and their students. Not only those magical animals with strong desire to attack, but also those with strong territorial awareness, as long as they could pose a threat to the castle, were killed by them.

Even intelligent creatures are no exception: the goblin tribe on the edge of the Forbidden Forest was driven out by Slytherin, Ravenclaw destroyed the murloc kingdom in the Black Lake, and Hufflepuff wiped out all the werewolves near the castle. Only the centaur tribe was luckier. It was Gryffindor who found them. He only made the centaurs and him make an oath after a few duels, never to take the initiative to step out of the Forbidden Forest.

It is the efforts of the founders that have kept Hogwarts Castle peaceful for thousands of years. As the saying goes, hit with one punch to avoid hundreds of punches. Back then, Les and the others didn't just open one punch, but directly cut off all the hundred punches around them.

However, they deliberately kept some less dangerous magical animals in the Forbidden Forest to provide students with a place to practice.

It was this part of the reservation that worried Daphne. Looking at it now, there is a powerful monster that can kill unicorns in the Forbidden Forest. Facing such an existence, we must be 100% alert.

Fred and George always said before that they would often sneak into the Forbidden Forest to play. Now I can be considered a person who has entered the Forbidden Forest. Ron said to Harry quite proudly. From now on, Fred and the two of them When showing off in front of him, he can puff out his chest and say that he has also been to the Forbidden Forest and that it is no big deal there.

After hearing Ron's words, Hagrid couldn't help but snorted: The Weasley twin brothers had caused him a lot of trouble before. In order to expel the brothers from the Forbidden Forest, Hagrid expended a lot of energy.

Harry was also quite helpless and didn't understand what Ron was trying to do by saying this in front of Hagrid. If Hagrid hadn't had a good relationship with them, he might have gone crazy now.

Did you know that there are rumored to be werewolves in the Forbidden Forest, as well as various other monsters - Hogwarts sometimes claims that students have transferred schools, but in reality, it's said that every one of them has been with a friend She said she wanted to adventure in the Forbidden Forest. Daphne said quietly.

Most of this passage was made up by Daphne.

Hagrid raised his eyebrows. It was about time that he announced the little surprise he had prepared for Ron.

What?! We actually have to split up?! Ron was stunned when he heard Hagrid's arrangement.

After about a minute of fussing, he finally came to his senses and stammered: But, if we spread out, there would be risks, right?

Hagrid smiled.

This is confinement, Ron. It's here to punish us. Daphne sighed.

In the end, Hagrid decided to go with Ron, and Harry with Daphne and Fang the hound.

This choice made everyone present very satisfied, including Les who was following everyone.

He believed that this grouping was the safest way to divide them. If Daphne was really grouped with Hagrid, then he would have to track Harry and Ron.

Okay, if anyone finds a unicorn, use the wand to shoot green sparks. If anyone is in trouble, shoot red sparks, and we will all come to find you. Okay, everyone, be careful - let's go. Hagrid waved his hand, and the Forbidden Forest team divided into two groups and set off.

Harry and Daphne walked silently along the dark path, illuminated by the weak fluorescent light from the tip of the stick and the bright moonlight. Perhaps because the light of the illumination spell was too dim, Daphne simply extinguished the fluorescent light on the tip of the staff, and instead followed Rice's example of summoning a ball of flame.

Brighter and warmer. She explained her intention briefly and comprehensively.

Of course Harry couldn't object.

After the two walked deep into the Forbidden Forest for a while, they both stopped: a ray of moonlight fell from the gap between the branches, illuminating a silver-blue blood stain in the grass.

That's... Harry hesitated.

Unicorn blood. Les once introduced this potion material to Daphne, so she was very sure about it.

What is it that attacks the unicorn? Is it the werewolf you mentioned?

Daphne shook her head, I made that up to scare Ron. In fact, werewolves are no different from ordinary wizards for most of the month. They only transform during the full moon, which is not a full moon recently. To put it bluntly, why would a werewolf attack a unicorn?

Also, unicorns have very powerful magic... things that can hurt or kill them should not be underestimated.

Hearing what Daphne said, Harry felt goosebumps all over his body.

Let's, let's go quickly. He couldn't help but urge, but Daphne not only had no intention of moving, but squatted down in front of the blood.

Under Harry's confused gaze, she pointed at the blood stain with her wand and patiently used magic to extract it from the grass. The silver-blue blood floated in mid-air, giving people a metallic texture. After completing this step, Daphne took out a crystal bottle from her arms and put the ball of blood into it.

After collecting the blood smoothly, Daphne carefully sealed the mouth of the crystal bottle with the stopper, and then put the bottle into the lining pocket of her robe.
