Harry Potter: Dark Alchemy

The next morning, when Wright came to the auditorium for breakfast, he was not surprised to find that Slytherin House's House Cup score was twenty points less. But what surprised him was that the huge hourglass in which Gryffindor recorded the House Cup score was not missing a hundred points, but a whole hundred and fifty points.

But weren't Harry and Hermione the only ones who went to the Astronomy Tower yesterday? Wright looked towards the Gryffindor table, but did not see Harry or the other two.

When Wright found Harry and Hermione, they were in the library with Ron, who had come out of the school doctor's office after recovering, immersed in reviewing the specific content of the upcoming final exam.

The other students sat far away from them, whether they were Ravenclaw or Hufflepuff, and even the students of Gryffindor House showed a certain alienation towards them. Of course, Slytherin would certainly be the one to isolate them.

There was only one person sitting at the same table as them in the entire library: Neville.

When he saw Neville, Wright had already reacted. The reason why Gryffindor's score fell by 150 points in the morning was not only due to Harry and Hermione, but also to Neville's contribution.

The most likely reason is that when Professor McGonagall sent Harry and Hermione back to the Gryffindor common room, they met Neville who was forced to stay outside the common room because he carelessly forgot the password.

Wright never thought about the real reason. Neville suddenly became brave this time and rushed directly to the Astronomy Tower to remind Harry and Hermione about Malfoy. Then he ran into McGonagall who was in anger. professor.

"Harry, are you okay?" Wright sat across from the four people, then stretched out his hand across the table and lightly tapped Harry's writing.

Harry raised his head, and when he saw it was Wright, he smiled reluctantly: "It's not bad."

Hermione, who was sitting next to Harry, didn't even raise her head at this time. She didn't know if she was still feeling sad about the points deduction.

Wright didn't speak, just waited quietly for Harry to calm down.

After a while, Harry continued to speak: "Wright, where were you last night?"

"I was still in the dark at that time. It's just that Professor McGonagall never noticed me when he came." Wright said.

Harry nodded, the only reason he could think of.

"By the way, you should be in the Gryffindor common room tonight, right?" Wright asked.

"Yeah, what's wrong?" Harry said.

"Your invisibility cloak was left at the astronomical tower last night, so I brought it to you." Wright said, "Originally, I was planning to return it to you now, but from the looks of it, you don't have anywhere to pretend to be invisible." "Yi, I'll send it to you in the evening."

Harry nodded again.

…

Before I knew it, another week had passed. The time for final exams is getting closer and closer, and the entire Hogwarts Castle is filled with tension. Eddie suffers from pre-exam stress syndrome just like last year, but this year his hope is no longer a magic potion, but divination.

On Saturday, Wright finished his review task for the day and came to Hagrid's cabin in the evening when the weather turned cooler. He planned to rest here for a while before going to the Forbidden Forest to search for some magic materials for making alchemy props.

In the wooden house.

"Hagrid, are you saying that the unicorns living in the Forbidden Forest are always injured recently?" Wright put down the teacup in his hand and looked at Hagrid across the table with some surprise.

"Yes, the unicorns have been attacked by unknown magical creatures in the past two days. They always look scarred these days." Hagrid said, "Even on Wednesday, I encountered a The unicorn looked extremely injured. You know, I have never seen any magical creature hurt a unicorn, let alone one that was so seriously injured.”

Hagrid patted the huge stone bow on his body: "So I don't recommend Wright that you go to the Forbidden Forest again tonight. I will patrol with Fang tonight. If you have to go, it's best to go with you." I'll go with you."

Wright glanced at the fang on the ground. There was a white bandage tied to its tail. Under the bandage was the wound bitten by Norbert a few days ago.

"Okay then, I will follow Hagrid tonight." Wright picked up the suitcase at his feet, which he planned to use to store the magic materials he would discover later. The leather suitcase has much more space than the mok bag and is better suited for holding those materials.

The two of them came out of the hut together with their tails still bandaged. The cool evening breeze blew from the forbidden forest, and the humid and sultry feeling of summer gradually dissipated. As time went by, Wright's mood became more and more relaxed.

After entering the Forbidden Forest, the light outside gradually dimmed. The Forbidden Forest was dark and there was silence everywhere.

Wright and Hagrid walked silently on the deep path of the Forbidden Forest, while Fang walked in front of them, exploring the way for them. Suddenly, a beam of moonlight fell on the ground from between the gaps in the leaves, and a silver-white thing on the ground shone in the moonlight.

"What is this?" Wright walked to the silver-white liquid and squatted down, it seemed like a piece of flowing mercury, "unicorn blood?"

"Yes, it seems we have to hurry up." Hagrid looked at the blood stain on the ground anxiously, "If the blood is still here, it means that the injured unicorn is no longer around us. It’s far away, I hope we can get there in time.”

Wright stood up and quickened his pace along with Hagrid. About half an hour later, the two of them were approaching the depths of the Forbidden Forest, which was not far from where Lu Wei was originally kept.

The bloodstains on the ground became more and more dense. If it weren't for the fact that the branches here were so lush that the moonlight from outside couldn't come in, there would have been a dazzling silver light on the ground.

Wright followed Hagrid and walked around a tree blocking the road. The roots of this old tree were splattered with a lot of unicorn blood, as if the unicorn died here.

At this moment, Hagrid in front suddenly stopped. Wright walked next to him and looked forward. What appeared in front of him was an open space, and a white thing was lying on the ground shining.

"A dead unicorn." Wright looked around and tugged on Hagrid's sleeve. "Hagrid, pay attention to the surrounding environment."

The white thing lying on the ground was a dead unicorn. A huge laceration appeared on its neck, as if it could almost separate its head and body into two parts. The ground was covered with silver-white unicorn blood, and the blood exuded a clear brilliance under the moonlight.

Wright and Hagrid approached carefully, their shoes making a heavy clicking sound on the blood on the ground.
