Chapter 62 Abnormality Of Scholar Moonstone
Even with Levin's help, most of the little lions forgave Harry and others.
But the punishment from the school will not be reduced.
Soon, Harry, the three of them, and Malfoy all received the exact same note:
Your confinement starts at eleven tonight.
Find Mr. Filch in the foyer.
At eleven o'clock at night, Harry, Ronald, and Neville went downstairs to the foyer, where Argus Filch, the caretaker of Hogwarts, was already waiting in the foyer.
Also staying with him was Malfoy.
Filch's punishment for them was to help patrol the Forbidden Forest.
This frightened them.
That's the Forbidden Forest!
It is also a restricted area of Hogwarts. The fourth floor corridor needs Dumbledore to remind him repeatedly not to go there.
The deterrence inherent in the Forbidden Forest does not need to be like that at all.
Under ordinary circumstances, it would be dangerous enough for the Forbidden Forest to whisper to the young wizard:
The eight-eyed spider that eats people, the centaur that hates wizards, the werewolf that appears on the full moon, all kinds of dangerous dark creatures, magical animals... Just hearing about it makes people scared.
Now that they were asked to go there at night, their fear doubled.
However, no matter how scared they are, the confinement of the school cannot be changed.
So they had to bite the bullet and follow Filch all the way to see Hagrid.
They didn't know that there was another person following them in an invisible state at this time.
Levin had long wanted to take a stroll in the Forbidden Forest, but he had no acquaintance to guide him.
It's not like he could stand guard in front of Hagrid's house every night to see which day he would go to patrol the forest.
So I chose to use the confinement of Harry and others in the original work.
At this time, Levin was fully armed, all the buffs he could add were filled up, and he was fully prepared.
He even did not forget to change his robe into red and yellow,
In this case, if something unexpected happens and he is exposed, others will only regard him as a Gryffindor wizard.
He has always been very good at framing blame.
In the blink of an eye, they saw the gamekeeper waiting for them at the forbidden edge.
"Don't let them take it easy." Filch reminded Hagrid cryptically before leaving.
Hagrid frowned when he heard this: "I know what to do, I don't need you to teach me.
Although Hagrid and Filch have been colleagues for a long time, their personalities are completely different.
Hagrid is optimistic by nature and loves little wizards.
But as a Squib, Filch hated these little guys with spellcasting talents the most. Seeing them would remind him of his life of disbelief.
The two people have different views, so naturally they can't talk together.
Seeing Filch walking away with the lantern, Hagrid turned to look at the four pitiful little wizards and couldn't help but feel a headache.
If it were him, visiting the Forbidden Forest would be like visiting his own back garden.
But for the little wizard, the Forbidden Forest is indeed a bit dangerous.
After Filch left, Draco Malfoy immediately started acting like a monster.
He attempts to use his father's status as school director to threaten Hagrid to avoid entering the Forbidden Forest.
But Hagrid, a straight-tempered man, didn't have a good impression of Slytherin, so he retorted on the spot: "I tell you, this is what Hogwarts is like!"
"What good will just writing a check do you? You have to do something useful, or you have to get out!"
"If you think your father is willing to let you be expelled, just go back to the castle and pack your bags. Let's go!"
Hagrid, okay!
Even in the eyes of Levin, who has no hatred against Malfoy, Hagrid's curse was a hearty one.
It's not that he discriminates against Slytherins, it's just that Malfoy is too mean.
Although he is not a treacherous person, his nature is not too bad either.
But I just like to use some small means to disgust others, and then feel proud of myself.
This kind of naughty kid will have to do it a few times before he gives in.
Seeing that Malfoy stopped talking, Hagrid was satisfied.
So he separated everyone like those stupid protagonists in horror movies,
Malfoy, Neville and Hagrid's Dogtooth Team,
Hagrid personally led Harry and Ronald, as well as Levin who came to ride with him.
The cold moonlight shines on the path leading to the Forbidden Forest. The dark Forbidden Forest seems to have a big mouth open, trying to swallow up anyone who dares to violate it.
Hagrid led them on a winding path that gradually disappeared into the depths of the dark forest, and a breeze blew their hair.
Looking from the entrance, the scenery of the dense forest is hazy and unclear, and the strange-shaped branches are like devils with teeth and claws, waiting for the arrival of prey.
The moonlight shines through the gaps between the leaves and onto the aperture on the ground. Instead of letting people feel the warmth of the light, it gives people a strange and misty feeling of dizziness.
Because he was patrolling the forest, Hagrid didn't walk very fast. As he walked, he observed the surroundings and introduced Harry and Harry to the surrounding animals and plants.
As a friend, Hagrid still takes good care of them.
With Hagrid's help, the two gradually let go of their fear of the Forbidden Forest and began to appreciate this vibrant world.
Behind them, Levin, an illegal tourist who used the tour guide, listened to the explanation of the gold medal tour guide Hagrid while collecting precious materials along the way:
Grass bugs in the shrubs, jumping toadstool caps under the trees, belladonna, white berries, moonstone, soundless bird feathers...
Relying on his strong perception, Levin did not let go of any possible materials nearby.
He even collected the blood of unicorns he saw on the road.
Unicorn blood contains powerful vitality, but those who drink it will also be fatally cursed.
But drinking it directly and using it to make potions are completely different things.
Levin followed Hagrid all the way, but after walking for about an hour, he had to say goodbye to several people, deviate from the safe path taken by Hagrid, and go deeper into more dangerous areas.
The reason is that Levin discovered a nest of Motla rats in the distance. This animal has a sea anemone-shaped tumor on its back, and the juice in it is a very important magical material.
After being separated from Hagrid, Levin could only move freely in the Forbidden Forest.
Use your senses to look around and find the materials you need.
However, Levin soon discovered that the moonstone in his bag was causing trouble again.
Even if the dragon skin wallet can completely block its light, the power in the available stone keeps rising and falling, making Levin agitated.
What does this thing seem to be foreshadowing?
Levin tried going in different directions, and found that when he went in a certain direction, Qishi's power fluctuated the most.
Out of curiosity, he walked straight in that direction.
The further he walked, the more something was wrong.
While walking past a moss-covered tree stump, he saw large drops of silver-blue blood, indicating that the unicorn had been seriously injured.
"Could this thing be pointing in the direction..."
After walking around a big tree, Levin heard the sound of horse hooves and looked ahead to see an open space.
In the clearing, a silver-white unicorn was confronting a masked wizard wearing a black cloak.
"Oh no, why did you lead me here?"
Levin cursed inwardly.
With his caution, even if he is confident, with his current strength, he can fight against Quirrell who is possessed by Voldemort.
He still had no intention of rashly intervening in Voldemort's attack on the unicorn.
On the contrary, his original idea was to follow Hagrid into the depths of the Forbidden Forest via a safe road, and take advantage of the emptiness of the Forbidden Forest to freely collect herbs.
In his plan, Voldemort should be a tool.
Voldemort, who was wandering in the Forbidden Forest, had already checked out the dangerous creatures nearby for him.
And when he causes trouble, he will attract the attention of the entire Forbidden Forest protection force.
Both Hagrid himself and the centaurs will come to him for trouble,
At that time, you can take advantage of the opportunity to make a big profit.
Who would have thought that under the leadership of this unlucky Moonstone, he would be sent directly to help the unicorn fight against Voldemort?
The tool man is actually myself?
No way.
Levin was just about to turn around, while the invisibility technique was still far away from the dispute.
Who would have thought that the scarred unicorn would fly towards Levin regardless of its opponent?
It's like you can see him invisible.
This is also deliberately tempting!!
Levin's mentality was a bit broken.
Thanks to Mr. Changhen Mianmian for the reward.
