Chapter 183: Unicorn's special skills
Chapter 183 Unicorn’s Special Skills
"Magic stone?"
Kyle raised his eyebrows, showing a very interested look.
"Is it the kind made by Mr. Nicoléme... Is there such a good thing still hidden in Hogwarts?"
"Don't ask, Kyle, I won't tell you." Hagrid said seriously with a straight face: "This is secret No. 1 and is not something little wizards like you should know."
“It’s confidential…”
Kyle shrugged and said indifferently: "In that case, I won't ask."
Hagrid was suddenly stunned. He didn't expect Kyle to give up so easily. Harry had been pestering him for a long time.
The two chatted for a while. Kyle seemed to have no interest in the Philosopher's Stone at all and never mentioned it again.
Hagrid suddenly sighed and said subconsciously: "Seriously, it would be great if Harry could be like you."
“Potter? What happened to him?”
"Nothing, nothing..." Hagrid shook his head quickly and said, "I mean he was here just now."
"That's a good thing, Hagrid." Kyle said with a smile: "It proves that he also cares about you."
“Yes…” Hagrid nodded.
This feeling of being cared about is indeed good, but it would be better if Harry could be less curious and not ask about Lu Wei and the Sorcerer's Stone every time he saw him.
“By the way, when did Potter come?” Kyle asked.
“About an hour ago.” Hagrid thought for a moment and said, “They only have one class this morning, so they came earlier.”
"them?"
“And Hermione and Ron.” Hagrid said: “The three of them have been together a lot recently.”
As he spoke, Hagrid stood up and stirred the pot with a spoon again. This time he scooped a little and put it in his mouth to taste.
This made Kyle's stomach churn. He suppressed the discomfort and said, "By the way, Hagrid, has anything strange happened in the Forbidden Forest recently?"
“Forbidden Forest?”
Hagrid held the spoon, thought for a moment and then shook his head.
“I don’t know, because of Lu Wei’s incident these days, I haven’t gone in to see it.
Why do you ask that? "
“It’s nothing, I just suddenly thought of it.”
Kyle said: "The person who used black magic on Lu Wei obviously had some intentions, but after alerting Professor Dumbledore, he definitely couldn't do anything to Lu Wei again, so I'm a little worried about him. We will target the Forbidden Forest."
“You mean, he will attack the magical animals in the Forbidden Forest?” Hagrid was startled, and the spoon in his hand fell to the ground with a clang.
“This is just a guess on my part.”
Kyle's expression remained unchanged as he said: "After all, there are many dangerous magical animals in the Forbidden Forest, such as werewolves, Acromantulas, or unicorns..."
"If they suddenly go crazy and run out of the Forbidden Forest, it will also have a big impact on Hogwarts."
Hagrid picked up the spoon on the ground and paced back and forth. After a long time, he said solemnly: "You are right, I will go to the Forbidden Forest to take a look soon."
"Be careful." Kyle reminded: "The wizard who can use black magic on Lu Wei may be as powerful as the professor. You must be careful when going to the Forbidden Forest."
“Don’t worry, I’ll pay attention.”
Hagrid subconsciously touched his little pink umbrella, walked to the shelf in front of the house, picked up a stone bow hanging on it and made two gestures.
In the Forbidden Forest, this thing is much easier to use than magic.
"But you're wrong about one thing, Kyle." Hagrid put the stone bow back on the shelf and said with a smile: "Unicorns are not dangerous. They are pure and weak magical animals, and their attack ability is very single. Even if you suddenly go crazy, it is difficult to hurt anyone.
Just be careful not to get hit by the horn on its head. "
“It’s hard to say.” Kyle retorted: “Don’t forget Professor Kettleburn. Didn’t he go to St. Mungo’s last summer because he was stabbed in the stomach by a unicorn...”
“Ah…” Hagrid was speechless for a moment.
He wanted to say that Professor Kettleburn was an exception, because any normal person would not try to hold the head of a unicorn when it was angry.
According to what Professor Kettleburn said at the time, he was comforting the unicorn and trying to calm it down.
Hagrid still doesn’t quite understand this statement.
He didn't know if the unicorn had calmed down, but Professor Kettleburn was quite calm while he was treating it... He almost fainted.
"Also... the unicorn's attack methods are not limited to its horn." Kyle continued: "Don't forget that its blood is also very deadly. If it runs to a crowded place, it will explode on the spot and splash others. What to do with a face full of blood.
You don't even need to drink it, just touch it to your lips... That kind of curse is very difficult to get rid of. "
“Huh?” Hagrid was choked again.
This statement is even more outrageous than the denounced Professor Kettleburn.
The unicorn exploded on the spot...how is this possible?
“Don’t forget Luwei, Hagrid.”
Kyle said with a serious face: "He can't even bear to attack such a cute three-headed dog, let alone a unicorn."
“Ah...yes, you are right.”
Hagrid's face slowly became serious, and he nodded seriously and said, "I will keep an eye on those unicorns, and I happen to know where they often hang out."
Kyle stayed here for a short while, then hurriedly said goodbye to Hagrid and returned to the castle.
Mainly because the smell wafting from the pot was getting stronger and stronger, and Kyle was afraid that he would vomit out the lunch he had just eaten if he stayed any longer.
The afternoon class is Defense Against the Dark Arts.
When Professor Quirrell walked into the classroom, everyone noticed that he had a bandage wrapped around his arm.
“Professor, are you injured?” someone asked.
"A little... minor injury." Professor Quirrell hesitated: "While watching the Quidditch match... I didn't know who kicked me off the stand and broke my arm..."
"But Professor, that was a few days ago." Someone else said: "I went to the campus hospital because I broke my arm during flying class last year, and Madam Pomfrey picked me up in a second. ."
"That's different..." Professor Quirrell blushed and said, "I was cursed by a vampire because...it's very difficult to recover..."
“But professor, didn’t you say last time that the vampire’s curse only made you afraid of the wind?”
“Maybe… I forgot to say it…”
Quirrell seemed not to want to talk about it anymore. He simply ignored the other little wizards' questions and forcibly changed the topic to the classroom.
What we want to learn today is how to identify and deal with red hats.
They are a kind of troublesome creature that looks like goblins. They can be found wherever there is blood. They usually lurk in the dungeons of castles and the trenches of battlefield ruins, waiting to ambush those who are lost.
It's just that Professor Quirrell didn't seem to find the red hat, so he used a big lizard instead.
That lizard is an old actor in the Defense Against the Dark Arts class. It was also the one who played Xinkpunk last time. It's okay to say he was a teaching assistant.
“Suppose...this is a red hat...”
Professor Quirrell supported the lizard on his shoulders and began to read the contents of the book stammeringly.
