Daily Life at Hogwarts Chapter 486: Unicorn pre-attack event

Hagrid has been in a bad mood ever since the dragon Norbert was sent away by Harry. He also wrote several letters to Charlie in Romania, asking about Norbert's recent life. Because the distance is too far, it takes a long time to receive a reply each time.

However, something bad happened in the Forbidden Forest, forcing Hagrid to take back the energy he had devoted to Norbert and refocus on his work.

Not long ago, Hagrid found a pool of silver blood in the Forbidden Forest. In the limited memory of the hunting ground guard, among the various magical creatures living in the Forbidden Forest, only the blood of the unicorn is this unique silver-white color.

This means a unicorn in the Forbidden Forest is injured.

Hagrid had never seen anything in the Forbidden Forest that could harm a unicorn.

The unicorns themselves are not only powerful in magic, but also run so fast that few creatures in the Forbidden Forest can catch up with them.

This is never a good sign.

Hagrid was the first to have been a gamekeeper for so long, and he had to figure out what exactly was hurting the unicorn.

At the moment, in the hunting grounds hut, Hagrid is debugging his crossbow, which he has not used for a long time, carefully checking every arrow in his quiver to ensure that they will not inexplicably lose their chains when they need to be used.

Before leaving, Hagrid looked up and glanced at the umbrella beside the bed, but in the end he didn't bring his wand.

If possible, Hagrid would try not to use it, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble to Dumbledore.

"Follow your teeth."

As Hagrid closed the door of the cabin and was about to go into the woods to find the injured unicorn, he vaguely heard someone greeting him not far away.

"Hagrid, are you going into the woods?"

Albert looked at Hagrid's equipment, probably guessing what was going on.

"A unicorn is injured," Hagrid explained. "I'm going into the woods to find it."

"At this time?" Albert asked suspiciously, looking up at the sun overhead.

"Is something wrong?"

"This time should be hard to find!"

Hagrid was a little confused and didn't understand what Albert was saying.

"I remember that the blood of unicorns is silvery white and glows slightly at night, it's obvious in the Forbidden Forest, it's easy to find them, but you go into the woods during the day and want to find injured unicorns Horned beasts are not easy." Albert noticed the change in the expression on Hagrid's face, and explained casually.

"Oh, you're right. But, I have to go." Hagrid raised his hand and scratched his head, but still didn't give up the idea of ​​going into the woods to search for unicorns now.

"Don't worry, even if you go into the woods now, you won't be able to find the unicorn for a while, tell me what's going on!" Albert naturally didn't plan to let this go. Next chance, ready to try it out and see if you can refresh new tasks from this.

Hagrid hesitated for a moment, but finally told Albert about the fact that he found the unicorn injured in the Forbidden Forest.

"It was this morning that I found that pool of unicorn blood in the Forbidden Forest. Later, after careful search, I found unicorn blood in many places. At least since last night, it has been Stumbling around in the Forbidden Forest." Hagrid recalled, "I've never been in a situation like this."

"Hagrid, have you ever thought about what caused the unicorn to be injured?" Albert asked suddenly.

"This..." Hagrid obviously didn't think about it.

"It's not that easy to catch a unicorn, this magical creature has strong magic and strong resistance to magic." Albert reminded, "Don't forget , unicorns live in the forbidden forest and have almost no natural enemies. If the unicorns want to escape, it is also difficult to be caught."

"There's nothing wrong with that," Hagrid muttered softly.

"Why do unicorns run around, doing that will undoubtedly aggravate their injuries."

"You mean..."

"I think it's most likely avoiding the enemy who wounded it." Albert said his guess.

"Did you find something?" Hagrid felt compelled to listen to Albert's speculation, and although it might be just speculation or nonsense, there was no harm in listening.

"As you said, this has never happened." Albert said calmly: "Killing a unicorn is an extremely cruel thing, and ordinary creatures simply do not Will be the opponent of unicorns, let alone hurt them, unless it's a cub. Why can't we change our minds, humans are actually their natural enemies."

"I'm afraid it was a dark wizard who injured the unicorn!"

"Dark wizard, why does the dark wizard hunt unicorns?"

"Canon," Albert speculates, "unicorn horns, fur, and other things are valuable, and sometimes anything is done for Galleon."

"For Galleon?" Hagrid almost growled: "Killing a unicorn for Galleon? That's an unforgivable thing."

"Of course, there may be other reasons." Albert poked out his ear with his little finger, and after Hagrid's roar ended, he suddenly asked back, "Hagrid, you know the blood of unicorns. Is there any use?"

"Unicorn blood?" Hagrid's eyes were confused.

"The blood of unicorns can be used to keep people on the verge of death alive." Albert whispered, "Maybe some dark wizard tried to use the properties of unicorn blood to keep himself alive. Let yourself live."

"My God!"

Hagrid was taken aback by Albert's guess.

"If that's the case, you'd better expect that person to have succeeded, or failed and died," Albert continued.

"Why?"

"It is said that the blood of a unicorn needs to be drunk while it is alive to be effective." Albert glanced at the quest panel where he finally had a movement. After talking to Hagrid so much, it finally triggered A mission to help Hagrid find the injured unicorn.

It's not easy!

"If the man didn't drink the blood of the unicorn before it died, I'm afraid there will be another attack."

"God, we have to stop him." Hagrid jumped up from his chair, holding his crossbow, ready to go into the woods to search for the possible dark wizard.

"This is just speculation."

"Speculation?" Hagrid looked deeply at Albert ~IndoMTL.com~ and couldn't help but sigh, "No, not like speculation at all, but seeing what happened at the time."

"A long time ago, I predicted this event in a divination class, and I told you about it." Albert reminded Hagrid with a glance. "However, because of Norbert's relationship, you probably put this matter behind you!"

"You continue..." Hagrid was a little embarrassed, he had indeed forgotten about it, and quickly changed the subject and let Albert continue to talk, he also wanted to hear what was going on.

"The situation is probably that a black wizard used magic to seriously injure a unicorn, but the unicorn itself is a very powerful magical creature, and its speed is also very fast, so it is not so easy to kill, so The dark wizard who wounded the unicorn did not get his wish.

You can only chase unicorns around in the forest, which is why you'll find unicorn bloodstains everywhere. "

"It makes sense." Hagrid nodded.

"You don't mind if I go with you to find the unicorn!" Albert and Hagrid walked side by side towards the Forbidden Forest: "Until you see what's going on with your own eyes, the information you get is limited. ."

"Don't have class in the afternoon?" Hagrid asked suspiciously.

"Don't worry, I have other ways to solve the problem in class." Albert comforted casually.

"No."

Hagrid finally has a showdown with Albert, and if the dark wizard is still hunting unicorns in the forbidden forest, I'm afraid I can't protect your life.

"Don't worry, I don't think the dark wizard will show up during the day."

"Why?"

Why?

Albert was speechless. He couldn't say Quirrell needed to teach in the morning.
