Chapter 261 Undead and Relics of the Forbidden Forest (2 in 1)

  After returning to school, several people are still pestering Professor McGonagall to ask about the zombie dog.

  When Harry and the others heard that someone proposed to send dementors to search the Forbidden Forest, their expressions were extremely ugly.

  Harry: "Professor, don't they really do that? Zombie dogs and dementors, I don't know which one is more worrying!"

  She was "pro" passed out by a dementor!

Professor McGonagall pushed his glasses: "Although the manpower is indeed stretched, there seems to be a lot of trouble in the Muggle society now. The Department of Magical Accidents and Disasters and the Department of Management and Control of Magical Creatures of the Ministry of Magic have to work overtime every day, and the manpower of each department is very tight. Nervous...but Fudge didn't agree to send the dementors in the end."

  Jerry shrugged his shoulders and whispered: "Maybe he is afraid of what happened last time. After all, I think those monsters are more interested in us than looking for clues about zombie dogs!"

  That’s right, the dementors simply regard the positive emotions of the little wizards as a supreme delicacy, and it’s hard to resist being so close.

  If it happens again, Fauci may not be able to survive his resignation and he will be impeached to step down.

  However, zombie dogs that can be infected with the "curse of the undead" are indeed terrifying, and cannot be taken lightly.

  Now there are dozens of people in the Forbidden Forest divided into small teams, conducting a blanket search.

  Hope they get something.

  …

  Although the atmosphere outside the school was tense, because the incident had not been reported in the newspapers and it had been silenced, not many students knew about it, so the little wizards still lived their own lives.

  The happy life in the ivory tower is hard-won!

  There is a divination class today.

  Before, Ted had already found time to chat with Professor Trelawney.

  About her talent, how to master it, how to develop in the future and so on.

  Ted intends to use some psion methods to let Trelawney show off her divination talent, and slowly train her to develop her own abilities.

  Although Trelawney felt a little ashamed when she thought that she had to ask her students for advice and follow the other party's plan.

  But nearly twenty years of obsession really makes people have to obey.

   How should I put it, although the magic world has existed for such a long time. But for divination, there is really not much accumulated.

  First of all, it is not easy for wizards to appear prophets, especially in the land of Great Britain.

   Even every few generations, only one or two talented fortune-tellers and prophets appear, and they have to rely on their own groping.

   As for Trelawney, she didn't inherit anything and could only learn the knowledge from the market.

  She wasn't even sure if she really had this ability.

  If it wasn't for Ted, she would have gradually fallen into despair.

  Now, at least there is a way to go, so who cares who pointed the way?

   Well, in this way, besides Professor McGonagall and his own dean, Professor Flitwick, Ted has a new supporter, Professor Trelawney!

   Today's divination class is a bit special, it is held in the middle of the night.

  Because today's course content is astrology, or stargazing, whatever is fine.

  It can be said that the beginning of the divination and prophecy of the entire human being starts from looking up at the starry sky.

  Whether it’s the strange western constellation divination methods or the Eastern axioms, they all sum up the experience from the laws of the stars’ movement, and then the divination calculations are born from this.

  So the astronomy class in the previous two years was mainly for this foundation.

  However, divination is already a very rare talent, and stargazing can be said to be a precious talent that is once in a million.

  The entire Western magic world is not very good at this thing. Instead, wizards in the Arab region and some races with talent for star sensing are better at it, such as the centaur in the Forbidden Forest.

  On the astronomical tower, two people are in groups, one person watches and the other draws pictures.

   Neville and Jerry were in a group, but Neville's eyes were dazzled looking at the starry sky in the camera.

   "I seem to see two Neptunes, this is not right, is it?" He asked with some doubts.

"right?"

  Jerry laughed. He imitated Trelawney's movement of pushing his glasses, and his tone became illusory, "Oh, Neville, two Neptunes are a bad omen! You have to be careful, be careful~"

  Neville didn't react for a while, and asked, "Be careful of what?"

  Jerry: "Be careful there is another you who will plot against you~"

  Simo and Dean on one side were drawing pictures, and couldn't help giggling when they heard this, their waists couldn't even stand up straight.

   Their laughter didn't catch Professor Trelawney's attention though, as it was drowned out by Lavender Brown's louder screams of excitement.

   "Oh, Professor, look! I have a planet whose position is inaccurate! Whoops, what star is this, Professor?"

  How should I put it, this little girl is a bit teasing!

  Professor Trelawney looked down at the chart and said, "Oh, it's Uranus, this is Uranus."

  Ron on the side heard the words, looked at the star map drawn by Lavender, decided to copy his homework, and asked, "Can you show me Uranus, Lavender?"

   Then Professor Trelawney, whose face was flushed, gave Ted and the others a lot of homework—a twelve-foot-long paper on the nine planets!

  When climbing the tower after class, Jerry was still wondering, "Why is Professor Trelawney crazy today?"

   Seamus and Dean couldn't help but sneered again, while the girls all blushed and hid away.

  Neville's face was as red as a monkey's butt, and he obviously understood why.

  Jerry panicked when he saw this scene: Why do they all know what's going on, but I'm the only one who was kept in the ancient bag?

  He looked at Neville, and Neville didn't dare to look at him at all, then he looked at Ted, Ted quickly waved his hands: "Let's say goodbye here, good night!"

  Jerry: But we haven't reached the fork in the road yet!

  Ted: I also don’t want to be a boy who understands in seconds!

  Jerry didn't understand because he was still not as familiar with English as these young wizards in the country.

   Uranus is Uranus in English, which is the same pronunciation as Youranus (your gang door). This is why Professor Trelawney is angry...

   It is not easy to do it, otherwise Trelawney will have to hang Ron upside down on the top of the tower!

  The car is like the wind, the sound is like an arrow, and the wheels are like flying swallows grinding my face.

   This girl is a car king, okay? We're almost on the highway!

  At such a young age, I have already turned the corner with the drain, and my future is limitless.

  However, according to what Ted later learned, Ron is also a man of his word~

  …

  The Uranus incident in the divination class was just a small episode in the daily life of the campus, and everyone just took it for fun and forgot it in a few days.

  However, one thing deeply affected the little wizards—Professor McGonagall said that Hogsmeade Village is being rebuilt, and students will no longer be arranged to go there on weekends in the near future!

  The little wizards were in mourning.

  Ron was like a deflated ball. He had already agreed with Jerry that he would drink butter beer at the Three Brooms Tavern for a day!

  Jerry: I'm too embarrassed to say you, are you going to drink butter beer? You are the body of a glutton!

  Ted joked: "Ron, you can open a bar in Hogsmeade in the future, just call Big Bird around!"

  Ron: I don't think you have a good word!

   Ted and the others only affected the weekend vacation. The professors in the Ministry of Magic and the school were greatly affected.

  This week, the Aurors of the Ministry of Magic were not idle. They were divided into six or seven teams in the Forbidden Forest and launched a carpet search.

   However, things are not that simple.

   The reason why the Forbidden Forest is called the Forbidden Forest is really unusual.

  Let's put it this way, hundreds of years earlier, this place was called the Black Forest.

  If ordinary people dare to walk in, they don’t have to think about going back.

   Even if wizards come in, they dare not go too deep, it is really dangerous.

  Even now, decades into the modern age, the dangers deep within the Forbidden Forest still exist.

   Do you think the main danger to poachers in the Forbidden Forest is Hagrid? It's the Forbidden Forest itself!

   It can be said that apart from the team led by Hagrid, the other teams are struggling in the Forbidden Forest.

  It is very common for the investigation team to fight with all kinds of weird and magical animals these days.

  At the beginning, the other team members were too nervous, so they hurried over to support.

  I didn’t go there after that, just took care of my own business, and asked “What are you fighting with again?”

  Some Aurors complained in private, saying that they seem to have re-taken a course on magical beast combat!

  The Hagrid next to him is an expert in this way, what a coincidence, don't you think? !

  However, the Ministry of Magic also knew the seriousness of the situation, and was determined to continue the investigation against all odds. After all, something was found.

   Just yesterday, a team of wizards finally found a clue, a dead horned rabbit?

   This rabbit has a hole pierced in the side of its body, and the blood has dried up, but it is still moving.

   And has a strong desire to attack, and has been trying to attack the Auror with the short horn on the top of his head.

  Find a clue, contact other staff immediately, and start detailed investigation based on this.

   Just two days later, another undead deer was found. This kind of magic-spotted deer has a natural magic pattern on its body, which is difficult to distinguish in a complex environment, just like casting a disillusionment spell.

   But now it has the head of another stag pinned to the huge antlers on top of its head... Don't mention how scary it is!

  After that, more and more undead magical animals were discovered one after another, and even undead magical plants appeared, and the combat effectiveness began to rise!

   So far, the strongest undead I have encountered is an undead gale pterodactyl.

   It is said that this kind of large flying reptile magical animal should not be infected with the curse of attack.

  Hagrid also said that this thing can only be seen on the mountain cliffs more than 160 miles away, and it shouldn't appear here.

  However, there are more and more traces.

   Even some environments in the Forbidden Forest have begun to change.

  Many trees that have lived for hundreds of years began to wither, and the grass and shrubs on the ground were ash. When the soil was dug a few centimeters down, it would appear a sticky, smelly gray.

   This is not a good sign.

  The wizards have carried out tests and tests, and the dangerous curse has begun to seep into the soil!

  …

  Ted and the others still don't know what happened in the Forbidden Forest. They are studying ancient magic and the secret library.

  Sirius finally pulled out the century-old secret from his great-great-grandfather Phineas.

  Phoenias also participated in the battle back then, fighting the goblin rebels who tried to meddle with ancient magic power.

  Although he didn't have the whole experience, as the principal, he naturally knew everything.

  Under Sirius' soft and hard paving...Moreover, Phineas was in the principal's office and other places, after learning about what happened in the Forbidden Forest, he made up his mind to tell the secret of the year.

  Different from other portraits that can move magic, the portraits of past principals in the principal's office are scary in terms of flexibility and authority.

   It's like copying the character, thinking, and memory of the original person into the portrait.

   Let them continue to contribute to the school after death. can continue to live here.

   Phineas Black, as the only headmaster from Slytherin House in history (so far), is pessimistic about the phenomenon in the Forbidden Forest. Or an aggressive attitude.

  He feels that the matter may have reached a very serious and urgent point, and the changes in the world now make him, an old antique from a hundred years ago, a little confused.

  But since the enemy is strong, then he should not be too weak.

  So, maybe it's time for ancient magic to kick in.

  Of course, maybe he was not very willing to let this power be buried in history. After decades of death, the opportunity finally came~

   Then, Ted and the others got a specific location...in the Forbidden Forest.

  zhuo~

  Ted can still imagine the situation in the Forbidden Forest to some extent. It is really inappropriate to go to such a dangerous and complicated place now.

   But ancient magic is really a bit fragrant!

  Ted and the others obtained a memory that Phineas secretly left in Black's old house during his lifetime. Using the pensieve under the restricted area, they saw part of the memory about ancient magic.

   It should be the guardian of the previous generation, the memory of Morgana obtained from the memory left by the previous guardian.

  As a rising star, Morgana surpassed other older guardians with the help of ancient magic in just a few years, and her strength is quite outstanding.

  There is a scene in it, which is Morgana's revised and enhanced version of Avada Chain Lightning!

   One Avada goes down, and the miserable green curse shoots out in series among the enemies like lightning, and a dozen enemies eat big melons together!

   That scene! Oh My God!

   This is much stronger than Voldemort!

  We can even imagine the scene where the two parties meet:

   Voldemort: I killed people.

  Morgana: How many?

   Voldemort: 100.

  Morgana: Not bad, so how about yesterday?

   In the future, I will learn the ancient method, dare to laugh at the devil!

   There are also some powerful weather spells.

  Like before in the Land of Fire, a dozen outstanding wizards acted to help Ted expand the weather spell and transform the blizzard.

   But looking at the memory scene, one guardian managed to make it rain heavily within a radius of ten miles! It is several times more powerful than Ted and the others!

  How can this power be compared to the modern magic system?

   Now even if Dumbledore casts the weather spell, he can at most affect the school, at most Hogsmeade Village, no bigger.

   This is not a question of who is stronger, but who has higher authority.

  Ted felt that this was not because of the magic power or the level of the spell, but because the principles of the two sides were different.

  The modern magic system is like an APP, which is exquisite and accurate, practical and convenient, and has various functions.

   But ancient magic is like root authority, which can fundamentally use the rules.

  There is definitely something wrong here!

   As for the Forbidden Forest, we are too familiar with that place!

  Last year for a period of time, I went to the woods every night for a night tour.

"what to do?"

   "It looks like it's only three and a half kilometers away from Hagrid's cabin!"

   "We don't have to go too deep, do we?"

   "We will come as we go..."

  My friends are fascinated by ancient magic.

   What else can Ted say? He also wants to give it a try!

  Ted: "Then we have to be careful~"

  Hermione rolled her eyes, but didn't say anything to refute.

   Let's go to the Forbidden Forest to see it first. If the conditions are really not allowed, then we can only postpone it.

   After drinking some wine, let’s do this first, forgive me...
