Raven's Claw at Hogwarts

Chapter 187 Re-entering the Forbidden Forest
As time passed, the two Ravenclaw students guarding the door of Mike's room regretted more and more why they had promised Professor Flitwick to come and protect Mike.

It is really boring to guard the gate and be a gatekeeper. It is easier to talk about people coming and going during the day. At night, everyone has gone back to sleep, but they can only guard Mike's gate like two armor statues.

"Brother, I don't think this is okay." The doorman who kicked the little mouse said to the friend next to him, "Why don't we take turns guarding the door, you go to rest first, and then come to replace me after three hours. Come back before dawn and no one will find out."

"No! The reason why two people are sent here is because we can't raise the alarm when we are attacked alone! So we have to be here with two people."

Hearing that the guard who proposed to take a rest in rotation was speechless, what his friend said was absolutely right.

However, standing here like an idiot and guarding the whole night is too boring. It would be better if he could play wizard chess to pass the time, but he is very clear about his friend's temperament, and the other party will not allow it I played wizard chess at this time.

Thinking of this, the guard shook his head helplessly, and leaned against the wall with a dejected face, thinking of his beloved girl in his heart, hoping to keep himself awake.

But what the two guards didn't know was that while the two of them were arguing endlessly about whether to take a rotation break, the little mouse that was kicked out had already taken the opportunity to sneak into Mike's ward.

In the ward, Mike was lying on the bed, breathing steadily and long.

Suddenly, there was a very slight rustling sound, and a little mouse without a tail got in from the gap between the gate and the ground.

The little mouse struggled to get into the room, its nose kept moving in the air, and a pair of small green eyes that shone faintly in the dark night locked on Mike in an instant.

The little mouse's eyes lit up when he discovered the goal of his trip, and his four short legs swung quickly and ran towards Mike.

However, just after it ran out, a faint black mist gushed out from the corner, enveloping it in an instant.

This cloud of black mist seemed to contain some kind of toxin, and within a few breaths, the little mouse screamed and lay motionless on the ground.

After doing all this, the black mist returned to the corner again, but at this moment, the little mouse, which was already dead, twitched.

In the darkness, there was a sound of bones and flesh breaking and twisting, and the little mouse had disappeared, and there was a piece of parchment where it was lying.

The black mist turned into Pappy the Raven, opened its mouth to pick up the parchment, and landed it next to Mike's pillow.

"Wake up humans, there is your letter!" Raven Pappy complained, "Damn! Why should I do the job of an owl!"

Raven Pappy's voice carried a magical power, which directly penetrated Mike's skull and instilled it into Mike's brain. Mike woke up and saw a piece of parchment with a broken corner in front of him, which was a bit inexplicable.

Mike didn't get serious until Pappy Raven explained to Mike what had just happened.

Mike lit up the magic lamp in the house, unfolded the parchment, and saw that it was written crookedly:

'I want to talk to you, come to the Forbidden Forest alone now.Plus, I already know your biggest secret. '

Although there were only two short lines, it made Mike break out in a cold sweat.

Almost immediately, Mike thought that his secret of being a time-traveling reborn person had been exposed, and the person who sent this letter was probably Percy!
But then Mike quickly denied this guess.

It should be true that the person who sent the letter was Percy or Voldemort in his youth, but the secret he said was unlikely to refer to rebirth, because about this secret Mike kept it very well.

So, he should be referring to the secrets about Ravenclaw's crown and Rift trials.

Thinking of Mike this way, the irritability in his heart also eased a little, but only a little, because neither of these two secrets can be leaked out.

The former will make Mike a target of public criticism, while the latter leak will not only make Professor Flitwick and others no longer trust Mike, but more seriously, may even expose the former, which is absolutely unacceptable to Mike.

Raven Pappy watched the expression on Mike's face change violently, and let out a gleeful rattling laugh, but the next moment Mike's hand grabbed its neck, and the unpleasant rattling sound was stuck in his throat.

"Pappy, turn into the Greedy Pendant again, we have to go!"

Mike said with a blank face, he had already made a decision in a very short time.Mike had to protect his secrets, and as for the person who sent him the letter, whether he was Percy or not, he was dead.

Putting Pappy's Greedy Pendant back on his neck, Mike began to check his equipment.

Greedy pendant, battle wand cover, black prickly pear wand, duel champion badge, although these equipments had been worn by him before he went to sleep, Mike checked it again out of safety.

Immediately afterwards, he took out a set of pitch-black tactical uniforms that looked a bit like special j uniforms from the bag with no trace of stretching spells, and put them on. This was ordered together with the desert camouflage tactical uniforms before, and it just happened to be in use now. , In addition, Mike also ordered a variety of tactical uniforms such as rainforest camouflage and sea-land special combat uniforms.

After thinking about it, Mike finally took out a teardrop-shaped glass container from the bag, and drank the Felix Elixir that was shining with pale golden light without hesitation.

Immediately, a wave of heat spread throughout Mike's body, and the wound on his chest that was still painful no longer hurts now.

But other than that, Mike didn't notice any changes in himself.

Shaking his head to get rid of the idea that this cup of Felix Elixir might be a fake, Mike stood in front of the open window, took a deep breath and recited the incantation of the Disillusionment Charm.

----------------

Half an hour later, Mike, who had entered the invisible state, had already appeared at the entrance of the Forbidden Forest.

Mike had been to the Forbidden Forest when he was in the first grade, and even fought a battle with Voldemort in the Forbidden Forest.What's amazing is that Mike still has to face Voldemort, the noseless weirdo, when he enters the Forbidden Forest this time. I have to say that Goddess of Fortune really likes to joke sometimes.

Thinking of this, Mike walked cautiously into the Forbidden Forest.

I don't know if the Felix Felicia worked or Hagrid raided the wild beasts in the Forbidden Forest after the incident in the first grade. Animals were not encountered.

However, at this moment, eight eyes emitting green light appeared in front of Mike.

"Smashed to pieces!"

Almost without any hesitation, Mike raised his hand and shot a shattering curse at the glowing eyes in front of him.

There was only a harsh creaking sound, and the eyes in front of Mike suddenly disappeared, and then an unpleasant rotten smell filled the air.

I don't know if it's because of the harsh creaking sound or the smell of rotting animals. After the death of the unknown monster, countless pairs of green eyes appeared in the dark Forbidden Forest.

Mike watched helplessly as those monsters with eight eyes rushed towards the place where the monster died at first, followed by a burst of disgusting eating sounds and squeaking noises.

In just a few breaths, the sound that could make children have nightmares finally stopped, and a group of huge acromantulas crawled out of the shadows.

"follow me."

The leading acromantula spoke these three words to Mike in unproficient English, and then turned around and walked into the depths of the forest, not paying any attention to the fact that Mike had just killed one of its kind.

Mike looked at the acromantula walking farther and farther in front of him, and followed him without hesitation for too long, and those acromantulas around him also moved accordingly, and in an instant, large swathes of rustling sound shook Mike. surrounded by it.

Mike could clearly perceive that the shadows around him were full of acromantulas that were bigger than adults, and each of these acromantulas was staring at him with those four pairs of cold eyes. Filled with the desire to hunt, I'm afraid they would have swarmed up if it hadn't been suppressed by the giant acromantula that took the lead.

Facing the prying eyes of these acromantulas, Mike's heart did not fluctuate at all, and he just followed the acromantula in front of him.

If he remembers correctly, these acromantulas should all be domesticated by Hagrid, although the creature called acromantula was banned by the Ministry of Magic because of its huge size, terrifying fertility, highly poisonous venom, and strong aggressiveness. It is designated as an extremely dangerous creature, and it is even labeled as a black magic creature, and no one is allowed to raise it.

But Hagrid, the gamekeeper at Hogwarts, obviously didn't think so. In his eyes, these huge and terrifying monsters with eight eyes were all cute and good babies.

That's why he allowed these acromant spiders to reproduce wantonly in the Forbidden Forest, and even made other creatures in the Forbidden Forest restless and indifferent because of their astonishing reproduction speed and hunting desire.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, an open space suddenly appeared in front of Mike.

In the middle of the open space, there is a burning bonfire. Wearing Hogwarts' plain robes, Percy with red hair is sitting by the bonfire, stringing the legs of an unknown creature with a wooden stick. Baked, and sprinkled with some seasonings from time to time.

These acromantia seemed to be very afraid of Percy, and they dispersed like a tide after sending Mike to Percy.

Mike moved his eyes away from Percy, and found that there was an acromantula corpse beside Percy. This acromantula was much larger than ordinary acromantulas, and it was even bigger than leading Mike. The one above was even bigger, but the acromantula was missing a leg.

Mike looked at the unknown creature's leg that Percy was roasting again, and immediately understood the origin of the leg.

"Wow, our guest is finally here." Percy said without raising his head, "Please wait a moment, I'll be done with it soon."

"Don't talk about these things, let's go straight to the topic."

Mike clenched his wand, watching Percy warily by the campfire.

"You're too impatient Mike, sit down quickly, my side is ready." Percy cut a small piece of barbecue with a knife and tasted it, "Hmm! yami (delicious)!"

Looking at Percy's satisfied face, Mike felt a nausea in his stomach, and said impatiently, "Stop doing these little tricks, Tom Riddle! Or, Voldemort!"

"Looks like you already know it all, Mike."

"Just tell me you know my secret?!"

Percy, no, the young Voldemort Tom Riddle shook his head helplessly when he saw Mike's nonsensical questions, and said with a smile: "Okay, I'm going to confess, I just want to have a good talk with you. I don't even know your secret..."

"Avada Kedavra!"

Before Tom finished speaking, an emerald green light shot out from the black prickly pear wand in Mike's hand, and shot towards Tom who was holding a roasted leg in one hand and a knife in the other by the campfire.

However, just as the Killing Curse was about to hit Tom, he swung his right hand holding the barbecue, and an equally emerald green light suddenly appeared, directly knocking Mike's Killing Curse out.

The green light on Tom's right hand gradually dissipated, and the barbecue skewered on the wooden stick in his hand had disappeared, leaving only the skewered stick.

And that stick was Percy's wand.

'He actually roasted meat with Percy's wand? '

Mike was immediately taken aback by Voldemort's tricks. For most wizards, the wand is not only a weapon, but also a comrade in arms. This is the concept instilled in them by the entire wizarding society since childhood, so most wizards are right. I take great care of my wand, and most wizards never think about using the wand to skewer pieces of meat for barbecue.

"It's a pity, this roasted leg is the best I've ever roasted." Tom said with some regret, "You may not know that when I was in school, the food at Hogwarts was not as good as it is now, so I often go hunting in the Forbidden Forest with my classmates.

Yes, my Slytherin classmates called this kind of predation hunting, as if saying so could make this behavior more elegant, as if they came here not because of greed, but because of interest The same as hunting animals in the Forbidden Forest.Oh, it's hypocritical, isn't it? "

Mike watched as Voldemort talked about his school days with relish, fine beads of sweat gradually appeared on his forehead.

Just now Voldemort didn't recite any spells when he knocked his own killing curse away, which means that Voldemort had already mastered the spellcasting technique of silent casting when he was a student. Mike really couldn't imagine what kind of talent this was.

"Why are you still standing there stupidly? Come sit down, I have a lot of things to talk to you about."

Tom smiled and waved to Mike.
