Chapter 680 Luo Fu: Take one step forward and die!
Hearing Hagrid's words, Rolf and Shirley were both stunned. They hadn't seen each other during the Christmas holiday, and Nymeria was... dead?
This news is too outrageous!
"Is she really dead?" Rolf asked in a low voice, "Hagrid, did you see it with your own eyes?"
"That's not true." Hagrid shook his head and said, "I heard from the centaurs at night that they ambushed Nymeria where she must pass, and Bain shot Nymeria in the chest with an arrow."
"Ambush?" Luo Fu said with a stunned look on his face:
"This is impossible. Nymeria knows divination. She said her divination ability is better than other centaurs.
If there were centaurs ambushing her, she would definitely divine the message in advance and avoid the danger. "
"I'm not very sure either." Hagrid held up the oil lamp in his hand, looked up at the sky and said:
"Ronan told me that Baine used forbidden things in the centaurs tribe, which seemed to be able to disrupt Nymeria's divination results."
"Forbidden objects..." Rolf pondered. What forbidden objects are so powerful that they can interfere with Nymeria's divination.
He thought for a while and continued to ask: "Didn't Ronan come to remind you before the incident happened?"
"Come, Ronan came here once during Christmas." Hagrid said with a grimace:
"He said that he would be restricted from freedom by the tribe and it would be difficult to come out again. He also asked me to find you... to save Nymeria."
"But I'm not at Hogwarts during Christmas," Rolf sighed.
"Yes." Hagrid nodded: "You are not in school, and neither is Dumbledore. I can't find you, and I don't know Nymeria's location, so I can't inform her."
"What about the period after school starts?" Shirley asked.
"Rita Skeeter's article upset me so much that I hid in the Forbidden Forest, drank all day long to numb myself... and forgot about it." Hagrid said shamefully:
"I didn't think of it until tonight when I met Firenze and he said that Baine shot Nymeria to death with an arrow."
"..."
"Rolph, what should we do now?" Shirley asked in a low voice.
Luofu rubbed his cheeks with both hands and said slowly: "If you want to see someone alive or a corpse if you die, let's go find Nymeria."
"Hagrid, do you know where they ambushed Nymeria?" Rolf asked.
"Firenz told me it was at the foot of Brown Cave Mountain," Hagrid said.
"Brown Cave Mountain..." The ponytailed girl raised her eyebrows and said softly: "Rolph, I remember that's where we rescued Airwing Bird that night."
"That's right." Rolf nodded, "It's also Nymeria's hiding place."
If Nymeria could escape back to the mountains after being ambushed, she might not have been captured and brought back to the centaurs tribe.
After all, the large number of magic items she got from Rolf were all used as traps and hidden on the mountain road.
Rolf and Shirley returned to the broomstick, and the boy flicked the firebolt and said:
"Let's go first, Hagrid."
Hagrid looked at the two people flying higher and higher in panic. He suddenly realized that something big might happen tonight.
Hagrid wanted to go to Hogwarts to see Dumbledore.
But it was too far from the school, and he couldn't disapparate. By the time he found Dumbledore, the day lilies were already cold.
Hagrid had no choice but to return to the valley, call the manticore and the Explosive-tailed Skrewts, and head to Brown Cave Mountain.
No matter what happens tonight, he has to help!

…
brown cave mountain,
A group of horsemen climbed up the mountain road. Their speed was very slow and they had to stop every time they climbed.
It's not that I'm exhausted, but that the mountain road is rugged and difficult to navigate. Some places are so narrow that I have to press my back against the cold stone and drag my feet inch by inch like a crab.
Although some mountain roads are wide, deep caves large enough to swallow people may appear at any time.
In addition, there are countless magic items hidden in the dark that can be triggered accidentally.
The weaker ones will also emit smoke and odor, while the stronger ones will explode directly, causing rocks to slide.
Bain looked towards the top of the mountain. He saw silence and darkness all around. There were no lights or shadows. The wind was blowing hard and it was as cold as a knife. He said impatiently: "It's too slow."
"Bain, don't worry, Nymeria can't escape." Margery persuaded:
"Even if she can run away, your arrow is quenched with the venom of the color-changing giant snail. After a few hours, the venom has already penetrated deep into the bone marrow, and she will definitely die."
"I'm just afraid that Nymeria will die." Bain said viciously. "That would be too cheap for her."
The escape from marriage three years ago caused Bain to lose all face in front of his tribe...Do you know how he got here in the past three years? !
Therefore, after hitting Nymeria with one arrow, Bain could obviously make up for the second arrow, but he did not make up for it because he was afraid that she would die on the spot.
Baine wants to capture Nymeria alive, bring her back to the tribe, imprison her, and slowly torture her!
Of course, he regretted it now. If he had known there were so many traps on the mountain, he would have shot Nymeria directly.
Margery looked at Bain who had gone to the extreme and sighed softly.
Arranged marriages kill centaurs. If Bain's uncle hadn't forced Nymeria to marry Bain, this wouldn't have happened.
At this moment, there was another explosion, and a purple flame suddenly rose. The flames danced on the mountain road, crackling and sizzling.
The bright light of the explosion forced Bain to cover his eyes, and he said angrily:
"These are all wizard items. They must have been given to Nymeria by that Scamander guy. I knew they were having an affair.
Nymeria's escape from marriage must have been because of that boy. "
Margery didn't think so. When Nymeria ran away from her marriage, Scamander was still an eleven-year-old pony. No matter how talented he was, he couldn't ride a big horse like Nymeria.
Nymeria's escape from marriage must have nothing to do with him.
However, as Scamander grew older, he did now have the ability to ride a horse.
Thinking of this, Margaery felt even more sympathetic to Bain.
The mountain road was opened again, and the centaur continued to climb up, and soon reached the top of the mountain. From a distance, he saw a cave with a large number of icicles hanging above, like snow-white fangs.
At the entrance of the cave, lay Nymeria. She didn't know whether she was dead or unconscious.
Baine walked towards Nymeria ecstatically, when a burst of sound suddenly sounded in the sky.
The two broomsticks pierced the sky in an instant and headed straight to the top of the mountain.
Bain's pupils shrank violently, and he quickly pulled out an arrow from his quiver, drew his bow and fired hard towards Nymeria.
The icicles above the cave fell down, struck the arrow feathers accurately, bounced them away, and then shot towards Bain.
Bain failed with one arrow, drew out his sword and swung it hard, cutting off the icicle in an instant.
The deflected arrow suddenly flew towards Bain's neck.
Bain dodged in great embarrassment, then looked up and saw a handsome young man riding a Firebolt, followed by a stunning girl with a ponytail.
The two were hovering in mid-air, looking down at the centaurs.
Rolf put his middle finger on his thumb and tapped it lightly. A row of arrow feathers floated in the air, aiming at Bain's head. He said coldly:
"One more step forward...die."
