Chapter 398

"... if you don't mind, I also want to make more friends."

Ron and Hermione were caught off guard by the sudden appearance of the boy named sokas.

After Marca's warning reached their ears first by Harry, they unconsciously wanted to stay away from him. The other party's slightly inclined attitude towards Slytherin also just let them breathe a little relieved.

When the other party's intention has not been revealed, it is the wisest behavior to keep a certain distance and explore secretly.

But I never thought that the other party would step into their circle so abruptly. This can not help but make Hermione secretly vigilant and confused.

What on earth does he want to do?

"Of course we welcome making friends, but..." Hermione carefully organized her words. "We must stay in the castle. Professor McGonagall has just told us."

"Really?" sokas smiled. "Yes, since we are students, the professor must know how to listen..."

He first affirmed Hermione's words, but in the twinkling of an eye he began to refute calmly.

"But in some emergencies, we must also know how to think, judge and act -" sokas seemed to say seriously. "Just like now, the situation in the forbidden forest needs us to work together."

"What's going on in the forbidden forest?" Hermione looked at him inexplicably.

"Yes, haven't you found it yet?" sokas met Hermione's suspicious and alert eyes without dodging. "There's a worse situation in the forbidden forest. Mr. Potter may be in danger!"

"What are you talking about?" Ron frowned. "What happened in the forbidden forest? Besides, aren't you with us? How do you know?"

"You'll see at a glance?" sokas waved to them, and then turned to the corner of the corridor where he came as if he knew they would follow.

Indeed, when he said this, it was impossible for the two people concerned about Harry and Hagrid's comfort not to have a look. Even if the other party is lying, you can only keep up with the other party when reminding yourself to keep alert.

After sokas's back disappeared from the corner, Ron and Hermione looked at each other, and then walked away at the same time.

In the corridor on the other side of the corner, you can see the outside through the window. If you try to look to the right, you can really see the forbidden forest.

Although only a part can be seen, and at a glance, it must be a dense and boring canopy.

When they turned the corner, they immediately saw the figure of sokas - he didn't go far, standing by the window quietly waiting for Hermione and Ron to arrive.

They hesitated and glanced at sokas, then looked out of the window with their heads on their sides in a nervous state.

At the first glance, they found that the other party was not lying, because they soon saw the strange situation on the other side of the Forbidden Forest - there was a crooked gap in the middle of the undulating thick green canopy, and at one end of the gap, near the outer ring of the forbidden forest, a touch of black was roughly squeezing the trees away and moving forward.

Anyway, the forbidden forest is still a distance from the castle. It's hard to see what the black is here.

But of course Hermione and Ron know

No, I believe everyone can see that the black must be some kind of huge creature, which is too big to be completely covered by the towering canopy.

"What's that?" Hermione and Ron both whispered in great surprise.

"Who knows? But that must not be a good thing..."

Sokas shrugged, then seemed to want to continue, but hesitated for some reason.

"Well..." he thought for a while, and then he said again, "by the way, I have another bad news here. Do you want to listen?"

"What?"

Hermione and Ron, who were about to turn around and leave, stopped when they heard the speech. This time Ron was the first to speak, but there was a trace of impatience in their tone.

He never had a good feeling for sokas. Even if he put aside Maka's reminder first, he didn't like this new classmate who seemed to have some talents.

In Ron's opinion, this guy is a little hypocritical. If he had to describe it, perhaps he would compare this guy named sokas to "learning to pretend to be a deep enhanced Malfoy".

In a word, it's just not pleasing to the eye.

"On my way back to the castle, I accidentally saw another man running into the Forbidden Forest -" sokas said calmly in their anxious eyes, "well, Helen Shane, who was assigned to your college."

"Why didn't you say it earlier!"

Hermione was really angry this time. She said a word angrily, then turned and ran, and Ron hurried to catch up.

While leaving, he did not forget to look back at sokas angrily.

"Hum - come on as much as you can, guys." sokas chuckled, "... Stupid friendship."

He didn't waste any more time, but even he took a step and followed closely. It can be seen that he is not as weak as an ordinary wizard in terms of physical fitness, and has not been thrown away by the running Hermione and Ron.

……

On the other side, Professor McGonagall was moving fast on the lawn with another figure to the edge of the Forbidden Forest on the side of the hunting hut.

In fact, Hermione's guess is really reasonable. It's a good idea for Professor McGonagall to go with flavy. But she guessed wrong this time.

Running beside Professor McGonagall was not the little professor flavy, but Pomona spraot, a short and fat Dean of hutchpatch and professor of herbal medicine.

Among the professors in Hogwarts, except for the defense against the dark arts professor who has never been stable, others can be qualified.

Even Trelawney, an untrusted divination Professor, and Hagrid, a professor of conservation and magical biology who always frightens people with dangerous species, are very commensurate with their respective positions.

But if someone asks the little wizards which one of the professors has the highest combat ability.

Maybe someone will support professor flavy, maybe someone will think Snape is also very strong, and maybe Professor McGonagall, the current acting president, is certainly not bad

However, I'm afraid no one will think of sprot, who is as amiable as a kind fat grandmother.

But, as the dean of Hufflepuff college, is she really only good at gardening?

Well, actually, flowers and plants are not simple, not at all! Especially flowers and plants with all kinds of strange magic.

Professor McGonagall, who had been her classmate for two years, knew that if she was in some lush vegetation areas, she would make anyone who dared to underestimate her suffer.

Before long, MEG and Spratt rushed into the woods hand in hand. It was only a short time after they stepped into the forest that they felt the trembling of the ground.

"Something's wrong. It's not something the horsemen can make." Professor McGonagall frowned.

"In short, go and have a look first. It should be over there," said Professor sprott, without hesitation, pointing in a certain direction. "I hope Potter is all right... Oh, I don't want to think more!"

The two men ran quickly in the forest, but they were still old after all. The fierce exercise made the two old wizards seem a little hard, and the sound of breathing came one after another in their ears.

After running between trees and bushes, they soon found that they had found the right place. The source of the vibration they first noticed seemed to be not far ahead.

When they once again pushed aside the dense trees half a person high and bypassed a few trees, they immediately saw a scene of fierce group war.

It may not be appropriate to say it's a group war. To be exact, it's a Siege!

The horses ran back and forth quickly and skillfully in the forest, and the trunk with little gap could not be an obstacle to them. These creatures, whose upper body is similar to a human, but lower body is the same as a horse, bend their bows and take arrows. The arrows, with the roar of breaking the air, shoot at the huge beast again and again.

On the other side, Hagrid was impatiently protecting Harry behind him, his eyes full of anger.

The giant beast, which is surrounded by horses and constantly shooting with tree cards, is a rare and magical creature in darkness - three giant dogs.

It has another name, called "Luwei".

Yes, this is actually Hagrid's three headed dog who sleeps when listening to music. When it was young, Hagrid bought it from a Greek wizard in a bar.

However, three headed dogs, no matter how cute they were when they were young, are always worrying when they grow up - their ethnic characteristics have long determined that they cannot be kept at home as ordinary pets.

Because they eat more, grow faster, and their average size is quite amazing. I'm afraid Hagrid, a guy who deeply loves the aesthetics of violence, wants to keep this creature as a pet.

In Marca's first school year, Hagrid lent the three headed dog named Luwei to Dumbledore as the first barrier to guard the Sorcerer's stone.

"They are not as terrible as people think. As long as there is enough food and a little music, they will be quite satisfied - at least that's what Luwei is!"

Hagrid once said so, but just now, he saw the side that his Luwei should have.

In any case, all creatures with sharp fangs and sharp claws, no matter how obedient they are trained, are still at risk of sudden rampage.

"... who on earth angered little Luwei?" Hagrid's anger flared.
