"I hope it's just a vampire or a werewolf or something......"

Elena followed the little golden unicorn through the Forbidden Forest, a dazzling magical imprint on the back of her left hand emitting a white glow, muttering to hypnotize herself.

It's just a simple idea, except for temporarily activating the oath for lighting, there is no way to trigger Dumbledore and Grindelwald's induction, she is more just to snatch the advantage of the first strike.

In the face of an unknown enemy that may appear at any time, she needs to be mentally prepared to strike first.

Hagrid once said that if you have to enter the Hogwarts Forbidden Forest, you must not stray from the forest paths.

However, the Hogwarts Hunting Grounds guard's admonition obviously did not apply to the magical creatures that lived in this forest, and within two or three minutes, the little golden unicorn had completely taken her away from the area where there were obvious human movements.

The trees around him grew thicker and thicker, and the last rays of the sky faded into obscurity, leaving only a faint light, and the lush branches even blocked out most of the starlight, except for the glimmer on the back of Elena's hand.

Elena felt like she had walked for about ten minutes, and now she should have reached a position in the depths of the Forbidden Forest.

The spacing of the trees became denser, the trunks looked thicker and thicker, and from time to time you could see some hideous vines clinging to the huge trees that had grown for an unknown number of years, and some strangely shaped roots arched out of the ground, forming a series of imaginative shapes—but unfortunately they were not good associations.

The sound of gurgling water could be faintly heard nearby, and by the faint light, Elena could see speckled unicorn blood scattered along the way, perhaps rubbed on the little one's body, or it could have been left by the owner.

But either way, it all proves that she will soon be at her destination.

Seeing this, Elena quickened her pace, it is not a good thing to stay in this kind of place for a long time.

While it may be a wonderful sight to see when spring is in full swing and the leaves are fully grown, along with the shrubs and meadows, it's not pleasant to walk through this cold place at the end of the autumn night.

And most importantly......

As time passed, Elena became more aware of who the enemy she was about to face.

In the vicinity of Hogwarts today, the murderer is most likely Voldemort, who needs to rely on the blood of a unicorn to survive.

After all, Voldemort, who was attached to the back of Professor Quirrell's head, was so weak that as a remnant, he could only regain a little strength by relying on this cursed magical blood.

However, the only thing that confuses Elena is that this is not the original plot timeline?!

According to the original script, Professor Quirrell was supposed to first try to cause a commotion, such as putting a troll in the school, and then take advantage of the chaos to break through the forbidden area of the fourth-floor corridor where the Philosopher's Stone was hidden.

Something like this about sucking unicorn blood won't come up until after the Chinese New Year, when Voldemort becomes weaker and has a more urgent desire to increase some of his strength to crack magic levels.

Moreover!

Isn't the food at Hogwarts fragrant today?!

Why at such a time, leave behind the carefully prepared dishes of the Hogwarts kitchen and choose to poach innocent unicorns?!

As a chef, Elena felt a great insult to her dignity.

In the midst of this quiet jungle walk and thoughts, Elena suddenly heard a strange incongruous sound.

"Huh?!Stop. ”

Elena stopped instantly, stretched out her hand to grab the tail of the little guy in front of her, and without waiting for the little unicorn to make a confused sound, she used her other hand to firmly press the little thing's mouth, "Shh...... Something is wrong, this sound. ”

Time seemed to slow suddenly, Elena's breathing slowed gradually, she felt that her hearing seemed to be several times sharper than usual, and she could even catch every sigh of the forest wind, and the sound of every branch breaking around her.

And in the midst of this, there is a discordant note mixed in.

Something was swishing and sliding over the nearby fall, the sound of a cloak as it dragged rapidly across the ground, but unexpectedly light and fast, as if it were gliding on smooth ice.

Looking around, the silver blood stains on the ground became denser.

Elena squinted, she saw a lot of fresh blood splattered from the roots of an ancient oak tree beside her, but any seasoned hunter knew that such violent blood stains and signs of struggle often indicated that the target would not run too far.

There was a faint neighing of horses in front of her, and even if you just listened to the sound, you could feel the pain and despair in it, and the girl felt the little one beside her begin to struggle violently, as if he wanted to rush out immediately.

"Rua, let me do it...... Don't be impulsive. ”

Elena pressed the little guy beside her, looked at its big lake blue eyes glowing with tears, and whispered very seriously, "You stay here quietly, and I'll take care of the rest, I can't protect two unicorns at the same time." ”

In dense forests, the identity of the hunter and the prey is usually only one chance to attack and defend.

Although Professor Quirrell's magical strength is not yet as threatening as Voldemort in theory, as an adult wizard, especially a Defence Against the Dark Arts professor, he is not too far behind in mastering basic offensive spells.

"Whew...... The hunt began. ”

Feeling the little guy next to her gradually quieting down, Elena exhaled softly, silently took off the obstructive college robe on her body, and the sound of her breathing slowly faded, like a terrifying and patient top jungle predator, silently approaching the position that made a movement in front of her.

Beyond the bushes ahead, you can see a small glade.

Elena had never seen such a beautiful, miserable sight.

In the narrow clearing, a white unicorn fell helplessly to the ground, its legs showed a very unnatural straight appearance, and there was an extremely terrible wound from the neck to the waist and abdomen, and the silver blood continued to flow out of the wound with its faint breathing.

In the shadow at the edge of the clearing, a bush shook gently......

Immediately after, a hooded black figure slowly appeared from the shadows.

The black figure was shrouded in a wide black robe, which seemed to absorb all the light around it, and its face was invisible with a low-hanging hood, and it crawled slowly on the ground, like a wild beast, with a strange and ominous everywhere.

Then, under Elena's gaze, the black-robed figure stopped at least four or five meters away from the unicorn, and seemed to be a little afraid of the dying unicorn, and slowly raised a magic wand......

This is now!!

“Explosion—Maximum！”

Rumble!

With a violent roar, the dazzling oath on the back of the girl's hand instantly turned blood red, and an unpleasant smell of burnt flesh emanated from Elena's left hand—the backlash of forcibly breaking the oath was not so pleasant.

Even if Elena crossed some of the loopholes in the rules, it was still quite painful.

If you don't have a damn prophetic prescience, it would be nice to not treat the other side as a person at all - the previous spell completely exploded the opponent's "back", revealing a large piece of flesh and blood blurred "chest and abdomen" - this is a strange existence walking backwards, barely half a person?

Elena bit her lip and quickly shifted her position through the jungle, raising her wand in her right hand and pointing steadily at the black figure that roared like a wounded beast and wildly cast a spell at where she had been.

“Explosion—Maximum！”

Rumble!

......

On the other side, Hogwarts Castle.

Dumbledore was raising his glass, smiling as he talked to Professor McGonagall beside him.

"Uh-huh!"

The old man's tall body shook violently, the wine glass in his hand almost didn't catch it, and the red wine liquid spilled on the wizard's robe, instantly soaking a large piece, and a familiar heart-rending pain came from his chest.

The unbreakable oath was forcibly triggered - Dumbledore, as the protector, was also attacked by the oath.

At the same time, Mr. "Otto Apocalis", who was enjoying his meal with a smile on his face, also stood up suddenly, looked at Dumbledore with a pained expression on the faculty seat, and asked anxiously and loudly.

"Where is she now? Albus!"

"The Forbidden Forest, the specific location, you should be able to perceive it as well. ”

"Lift the ban on phantom migration in the castle immediately! I'll go over now!"

"It's open. ”

Crackling.

There was a screeching sound of air explosion.

Otto Apokalis disappeared from everyone's sight in an instant, leaving behind the Hogwarts staff table, which had just reacted and was temporarily in a state of confusion and confusion.

"Nothing must happen, little one!"
