Quirrell was ordered by his master to go out.
Voldemort was sure that what he wanted was in this castle, but he didn't know where in the castle it would be, so he could only use the only available labor force to search for it.
Quirrell has become accustomed to being urged by his master to wander around every corner of the castle, trying to find the stone. He does not dare to resist, even if the current master is just a wandering soul who needs to be attached to him, he does not dare to refute him, because The fear of him was deep in my bones.
Quirrell didn't like such a dark night. He didn't dare to make any publicity because he had an ulterior "secret". He even didn't dare to light a lamp or meet the administrator when he was on a night tour because of his guilty conscience. Of course, what he was most worried about was causing this The attention of the most powerful wizard in the castle.
But there is also good news. If he succeeds in getting the Philosopher's Stone to help his master resurrect, he will become his master's most trusted believer and the most trusted Death Eater. Then no one will dare to bully or look down on him!
In fact, they already had a preliminary inference about the location of the stone, but they were not sure yet and did not want to act rashly.
They need to find out what's going on inside and wait for a suitable opportunity.
…
The Forbidden Forest is not quiet at the moment.
Noah skillfully hid in a tree to reduce his presence, and his silver-gray eyes stared at the two centaurs below through the gaps in the leaves.
The Forbidden Forest is somewhat lively tonight, and the centaurs are quite active. At least in the past, centaurs rarely appeared in this area. After all, it is very close to the habitat of the poisonous horned beasts, and those dangerous big guys and even spiders are Rarely come close.
Noah has reached a relatively deep level and harvested some rare magic materials.
After looking at the time, it was almost time to leave.
After the footsteps of several centaurs faded away, Noah pushed aside the branches and walked steadily between the branches. The spherical shield protected him from getting hung up on the branches. Noah walked towards the outside of the Forbidden Forest. Go.
Not long after he left, the two centaurs who left returned to the tree again.
The two centaurs circled the giant tree and looked up.
But at this moment, only slightly swaying branches could be seen, and no suspicious creatures were detected.
"We're late." The darker centaur sighed helplessly.
"How cunning," the centaur traveling with him murmured, "to think..."
"Silence!" The dark brown centaur subconsciously looked around, made sure there was no strange smell around, then turned to scold his companions, "Have you forgotten what the patriarch said before?"
The scolded centaur didn't take it seriously: "The patriarch also said it was just a suspicion, and now there will still be..."
"Da da da..." The clear sound of horse hooves sounded from a distance, and the two centaurs subconsciously turned their heads to look, but what came through the forbidden forest was not their companions, but a unicorn.
At the same time, the dull sound of hoofbeats was heard in the other direction, and along with a neighing sound, three Thestrals, two large and one small, also appeared in the sight of the two centaurs.
The three thestrals and the unicorn glanced at the two centaurs in unison, and then turned their attention to each other.
Little Yeqi tilted her head curiously and tried to take a few steps forward to see clearly the gleaming unicorn in the Forbidden Forest, but her parents blocked her way by covering her with bat wings.
The two centaurs inexplicably felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere. Obviously, neither thestrals nor unicorns were magical creatures that would actively harm people. The two races often encountered each other in the Forbidden Forest and never had a conflict. But inexplicably, The two centaurs just felt that something was wrong in the atmosphere, and were afraid that they would fight in the next second.
The two centaurs subconsciously relaxed their breathing and stood there, not daring to make any sound.
The unicorn and the Thestral were in a stalemate for half a minute. The unicorn took the lead and left here with crisp footsteps.
The two centaurs looked subconsciously and saw a small group of things squatting on the back of the unicorn. Because the figure of the unicorn was quickly covered by lush shrubs, they were unable to see clearly what it was. What it is, I just vaguely feel that there are strange magic fluctuations in it.
They turned to look to the other side, where two adult Thestrals were preparing to leave with their children, as if they had just wandered in here by mistake.
It wasn't until the sound of hooves from both sides could no longer be heard that the two horses relaxed.
They didn't speak any more, and quickly left the place without saying anything, heading towards the direction of the tribe.
After walking a certain distance, the two centaurs raised their hooves and galloped away. No longer caring about the territory of those dangerous creatures, they flew straight into the depths of the Forbidden Forest as fast as possible.
They didn't know what the scene just happened, but they had a hunch that it definitely foreshadowed something.
When they finally rushed back to the tribe, they found that all the centaurs had gathered in the center of the tribe. The older tribe leader was standing next to a burning fire, and the familiar spices were coming from the burning fire. breath.
At the moment when the last two centaurs arrived, the original orange-red flame suddenly turned into a dark green color, giving the centaurs closer to the flames a strange color.
The two centaurs who were about to speak were startled and subconsciously exclaimed, attracting dissatisfied glares from the other centaurs.
The onlookers consciously moved out of the way, and the patriarch walked out of the crowd without paying attention to the flames behind him and said to them: "You are back."
"We are back, clan leader." The two centaurs replied, but their eyes subconsciously looked at the green fire behind them.
"Tell me what you encountered?" the clan leader asked, "Don't hold anything back. Let's start from the time you set out."
The two centaurs moved their throats, as if they sensed something unusual. The dark brown centaur took the initiative to step forward and clearly told them all about their journey along the way.
When he talked about the confrontation between the unicorn and the Thestral, the surrounding centaurs let out a few small exclamations. The patriarch glanced sideways at the clansmen, and saw several centaurs subconsciously bowed their heads and retreated, remaining quiet.
After listening to all the process, the patriarch muttered and turned around and returned to the fire. The green flame had obviously been burning for a long time but had not weakened at all. Even the special spices inside still exuded a special fragrance.
The clan leader slightly raised his head and looked at the sky. The green flames did not raise any smoke, but the sky he saw at this moment was green. The light green half-moon shed green moonlight, which seemed cold but could actually be clearly felt. To the warmth brought by the burning fire beside you.
"What does this herald?" the elder patriarch murmured, "What kind of fate does this herald?"
