Chapter 168: The Dead Forbidden Forest

The young wizards were all talking about the Chamber of Secrets, the heirs, the petrified people......

The amulets were taken out again, including the glasses that Alan had asked Penelope to distribute.

When the sun finally set behind the clouds, Benny took the letter that Eren had brought to Gaia, and flew into the thickening twilight haze.

Its figure faded into obscurity, and finally disappeared into the twilight that hung low around the setting sun, and it was no longer recognizable.

The sky suddenly turned red, then it got dark, and Venus began to blink at the sky.

In the middle of the night, Alan went to bed as usual, and waited until Edward fell asleep before he got out of bed and got dressed again.

After becoming invisible, Eren quickly ran towards the Forbidden Forest.

Walking through eerie corridors, the journey was not pleasant.

Alan had wandered around the castle in the middle of the night several times before, but he had never seen so many people after the sun had set.

Teachers, prefects, and ghosts patrol the hallways in pairs, looking around for anything out of the ordinary.

Alan had to slow down and move forward cautiously, avoiding kicking or knocking over something and making a sound.

Murphy's Law worked again, and as Alan approached the castle gates, he saw Professor Snape patrolling the door with a gloomy face.

How do you open that heavy oak door without alarming Professor Snape?

Alan stared intently at Professor Snape, hoping that he would find an opportunity to dismiss him.

Perhaps Allen's gaze was too focused, and Professor Snape walked suspiciously in Allen's direction.

Alan hurriedly stepped back, not daring to keep his eyes on Professor Snape any longer.

Professor Snape waved his arm a few times where Alan had been, but of course caught nothing.

Professor Snape let out a loud sneeze and returned to the door.

Just as Alan was thinking about a detour, Professor Dumbledore walked over with a very serious expression.

He was followed by a very strange-looking man.

The stranger was short, stocky, stocky, with messy gray hair and an anxious look on his face.

The clothes on his body were a strange hodgepodge: a pinstriped suit, a bright red tie, a long black cloak, and purple pointed-toe boots.

He wore a dark green top hat under his arm.

Soon, Alan knew who he was.

"Good evening, Professor Dumbledore!, Minister Fudge!" Professor Snape showed the courtesy of a gentleman.

"Hello, Professor Snape!" Fudge said in a crisp and quick tone, "very bad to have to come." There were four attacks on Muggles, which was too much and the Ministry of Magic had to take action. ”

"Either way, I hope your actions are effective. Professor Snape moved out of the way, opening the oak door for them.

Alan's eyes lit up, and the moment the door was about to close, he quickly drilled out.

Dumbledore: They and Alan were going in the same direction.

But soon, they could be separated.

After traversing the pumpkin patch, Alan continued on to the Forbidden Forest, while Professor Dumbledore and Fudge entered Hagrid's hut.

Before parting, Alan noticed Dumbledore glancing in his direction.

Alan hadn't gone far when he heard an argument coming from the hut, "I hope you understand, Connelly, that I trust Hagrid completely...... Taking Hagrid away won't help at all. ”

"But lo and behold, Albus, Hagrid's track record is not in his favor. The Ministry of Magic had to take some measures......"

It seems that the Ministry of Magic has made Hagrid the number one suspect and is going to imprison him in Azkaban!

Alan didn't come forward, and if even Dumbledore couldn't keep Hagrid, how could he, a little-known little wizard, sway the will of the Ministry?

When the cruel social reality is laid bare in front of Allen, Allen suddenly discovers the beauty of power.

Although Alan had never tasted power, a small fire burned in his heart.

The hills on the north side of the Forbidden Forest were hidden in the darkness, and although the bright moon hung high in the deep night sky, it could not shine into the Forbidden Forest, and the layers of branches blocked the moonlight tightly.

"Fluorescent flicker!" Alan had to use a fluorescent spell to illuminate his path.

Seeing the Forbidden Forest in front of him clearly, Alan couldn't help but gasp.

The ground was full of black stumps and leaves.

Along the way, Alan lost count of the number of dead birds he saw.

The carcasses of these birds were pitch black and indistinct, and some of them left traces of tearing and biting.

But Alan couldn't tell what animal had left the bite marks.

The further Eren walked deeper into the Forbidden Forest, the more he felt that the silence around him was terrifying, there was no other sound, only a deathly silence.

The dead trees of the Forbidden Forest bared their teeth and claws around Alan, watching Eren like ghosts.

Not daring to act recklessly, Eren clenched his wand and made a vigilant move towards the unicorn colony.

When Alan saw the shining stars again, in this glimmer of light, Gaia fell from the sky.

This made this Forbidden Forest instantly add vitality, making Alan feel the breath of life again, and his heart felt more relaxed.

"Alan, I received your letter and have been waiting for you here. Gaia raised her front hooves and looked very happy.

"That owl of yours has been poisoned, and with the current poisonous situation in the Forbidden Forest, I'm afraid it will have to recuperate in our colony for a while before it can go back. ”

Without waiting for Alan to say the purpose of his trip, Gaia said a lot about Barabala.

"Benny is poisoned?" Alan worried.

"Don't worry, I've made it drink water mixed with unicorn horn powder. I have to praise it, it's really a conscientious owl. Even though he is poisonous, he can still support the letter to me!" Gaia admired Benny.

"How did the Forbidden Forest become like this?" asked Allen.

"It's not the monster yet! The monster that humans had kept in the castle has escaped and wreaked havoc in the Forbidden Forest! Everywhere it goes, birds and beasts are gone!" Gaia said resentfully.

"Benny was poisoned by touching this monster?" Alan couldn't help but exclaim.

"It's possible, but it's also possible that you touched the venom that remained. Gaia guessed.

"I've also walked through this poisoned Forbidden Forest, how can I be safe?" Alan was amazed.

"You forgot! You have been blessed by my father, and you are invincible!" Gaia reminded Eren in disgust.
