The Day of the Draw at Hogwarts

Chapter 61 The Injured Unicorn

Hagrid spoke to them as he walked, "Listen, what you are going to do tonight is very dangerous - well, as long as you enter the Forbidden Forest, there is no safe time," Hagrid sighed, "Even in the Forbidden Forest Having been around for half my life, I can’t take it lightly… I don’t want you two to encounter accidents because of carelessness, but this is indeed a very good opportunity to learn about magical animals.”

Hagrid led Tom and Hermione to the edge of the Forbidden Forest. He raised the oil lamp in his hand high and illuminated a narrow path that gradually disappeared into the depths of the forest. There were a few drops of silvery white things shining on the path. Light.

"Unicorn blood," Hagrid said, pointing to the little bit of silver, "is very unusual. No unicorn has ever been so seriously injured before. Generally speaking, unicorns will not go near the edge of the Forbidden Forest. We are here today Your mission is to find the injured unicorn and put it out of its misery."

A breeze blew by, and Tom couldn't help but shuddered and got goosebumps all over his body. At this time, Tom was a little lucky, glad that he was well prepared before coming here.

After giving them a few words of warning, Hagrid led two people and one dog into the Forbidden Forest. They walked along the path, one foot deep and one foot shallow, following the blood stains. The moonlight fell from the branches, making the blood in the forest more conspicuous.

Tom dipped his finger into a little blood. The moment it touched the blood, he felt a warm feeling. The blood was bathed in the moonlight and turned into a strange silver-blue color.

[Main mission trigger:

As the moonlight shines on the unicorn's blood, Tom also receives three tasks.

As several people went deeper, the blood stains gradually became denser. Finally, in a clearing, they saw a shimmering creature. It lay unnaturally on the ground, its manes spread on the fallen leaves, like silver-white pearls.

What had been an elegant, beautiful creature was now writhing and struggling in the mud.

Even from a distance, Tom could hear its painful gasps.

Hagrid did not step forward immediately. Instead, he took a step back and retreated behind a tree. He cocked his giant crossbow and then walked out with the crossbow.

"Split into pieces!"

When Hagrid walked to the edge of the clearing, a ray of light flashed like lightning. In the woods not far away, there was a figure shrouded in black robes. It was he who launched the raid.

"Armor for protection!" Tom reacted very quickly and cast an iron armor spell on Hagrid, but this spell was like paper in front of the opponent's cutting spell and shattered in an instant. Tom conservatively estimated that the cutting curse was at least level seven.

As the magic spell flew out, Hagrid also responded. He fired the crossbow bolt and dodge sideways at the same time. The crossbow arrow shot out of the air, making a sharp whistle, and the arrowhead was still flashing with a faint blue light, probably coated with some kind of venom.

Then there were two loud noises. The giant crossbow in Hagrid's hand broke into two pieces, and a bloodstain appeared on his shoulder. However, the man in black was unscathed: his iron armor spell caused the crossbow arrows to fly away. But before he could take any further action, a series of low bangs sounded next to the clearing.

Tom stood in front of Hermione, holding a gun in both hands. The gun in his hand was spitting out tongues of fire, shooting bullets at the mysterious man in black. The iron armor spell of the black-robed wizard was shattered by the joint efforts of the crossbow arrows and bullets. His Several flowers of blood burst out from under the black robe, and the sudden blow made him stagger back two steps.

The steaming bullet casing fell to the ground, rolled several times, and lost the last trace of kinetic energy, leaving only wisps of white smoke.

At this time, the face under the black robe became extremely distorted, the original black eyes became narrow and long, and the hand was raised at an unnatural angle, facing the direction of the bullet, and a voice like the hissing of a snake sounded: "Ava Da Kedavra!”

The green light flashed, but it was lonely. After Tom emptied the magazine, he immediately dragged Hermione and rolled into the bushes, losing sight of her. Hagrid also used the broken crossbow as a wooden club and rushed forward waving it.

The black-robed wizard wanted to kill him again - in his opinion, although Hagrid was ferocious, he was just a reckless man, and he could easily kill him. However, a huge three-headed dog ran wildly from the woods. When he came out, the black-robed wizard immediately turned around, a wisp of black smoke rose from his feet, and ran away like flying. He knew very well that the most he could do at this point was one exchange, but it was better to retreat quickly. The three-headed dog followed closely and rushed into the woods opposite with him.

"Lu Wei?" Hagrid was shocked. He quickly followed, but when he ran into the woods, he saw no sign of the three-headed dog or the black-robed wizard.

The three-headed dog was of course Tom, and he didn't have the passion to chase Quirrell alone. He changed direction as soon as he ran into the woods, escaped, and then found a deserted place to transform back into his human form. .

So what Hagrid saw was an empty forest.

He was confused: The three-headed dog just now should be his Lu Wei, right? But why is Lu Wei here? All kinds of doubts almost filled his head.

But now was not the time to think about the problem. He turned around first, found Hermione and Tom hiding in the bushes, and then led them to the dying unicorn.

The unicorn's vitality was running low at this time. It lay motionless on the ground and could barely hear its breathing. Only the slight trembling in its chest and abdomen showed that it was still alive.

Hagrid half-knelt on the ground, carefully examining the unicorn, trying to save this innocent life. But after a while, Hagrid sadly found that he had no way to save the unicorn in front of him. Unless Dumbledore and Newt Scamander were both present, there was no chance.

Tom also knelt down beside the unicorn, unable to do anything. He could only gently stroke its neck, hoping to make it feel better.

"I will avenge you." He whispered such words, and the unicorn's beautiful eyelashes trembled, but that was all. Soon, the sparkle in the unicorn's eyes gradually disappeared.

It's dead. He died of serious injuries.

The last few drops of silver blood dripped from its wound. Tom caught the blood beads with his hand and looked at it carefully.

[Cursed blood: coming from a pure and innocent creature, it can bring an irreversible curse to the soul]

Tom thought for a moment, took out his wand, and turned a branch into a cup. He collected the blood scattered on the ground nearby bit by bit, and then sealed the mouth of the cup.

"It's not a good place to stay for a long time," Tom said seriously to Hagrid, who was still sad. "We need to find Professor Dumbledore quickly."

Hagrid also reacted. He knew that the man in black robes would probably fight back, so he immediately got up and ran towards the castle with Tom and Hermione.
