Harry Potter and the Secret Treasure
Page 146
Aiwen didn't speak, anyway he planned to go to the temple marked on the stone to take a look, but he didn't want to argue with Sirius about this matter.
He changed the subject and said, "By the way, how did you find these dark creatures?"
In fact, Aiwen was really curious. The number of dark creatures prepared by Sirius for this exam was much more than those left by Professor Lupine.
"Actually, it's not that difficult. These guys are hiding in the shadows deep in the Forbidden Forest, and they are eager to do something to the passing creatures. As long as you look hard, you can always find them." Sirius pointed to the one-legged Hinckle Punk and said. , "For example, this guy is hiding in the large swamp north of the centaur tribe."
"The swamp to the north of the Centaur tribe?" Aiwen asked in surprise.
"You haven't been there yet, it's in the deepest part of the Forbidden Forest, and you have to turn over a mountain." Sirius turned his head and looked at Ivan, "I'm repeating, don't think about despicable Haier Bo, Slytherin Regarding the matter with that monster, I know that you little guys will definitely not be able to sit still, and if you let it go like this, there will definitely be problems. Therefore, I plan to take the four of you to the centaur tribe to try to challenge the test left by Gryffindor. Are you going to How is it?"
"You can start at any time!" Ivan shook the wand in his hand, sending out a colorful firework, "You know, I'm in good shape recently."
"That's good!" Sirius nodded with an unnatural expression.
After Ai Wen fully recovered and came out of the school hospital, he had a try against the greatly improved Ai Wen.The result of the duel was a tie, which made Sirius feel very humiliated. It was unimaginable that he could not suppress a 12-year-old wizard.
If he knew that Aiwen actually retained his strength during the duel and didn't use many powerful black magic, he didn't know how he would feel.
"Harry and Ron have a divination test in the afternoon, and Hermione is arithmetic and divination!" Sirius said, "We can set off after dinner. Horse people are used to night activities, as long as the speed is a little faster, I think we can do it before midnight." return."
"I'll notify them later, we'll be waiting for you at Hagrid's cabin at six o'clock in the evening!" Ivan nodded and said, he couldn't wait to go to the centaur tribe.
"Remember, let Harry wear his invisibility cloak." Sirius instructed, "We are operating secretly this time, so don't let others find out."
During the time of the conversation, Harry had completed all challenges.
He did a really good job of taking out every dark creature the right way, and Sirius gave him full marks.
Behind Harry is Hermione, who is invulnerable until she reaches the box with the boggart in it for about a minute before rushing out screaming.
"Hermione!" Ivan hurriedly supported her and asked in surprise, "What's the matter?"
"Yes, it's Professor McGonagall!" Panting Hermione, pointing to the box, "She, she said I failed all the exams!"
This was definitely the most terrifying thing for Hermione, who was so ready to swear to be number one in age, that she even forgot that it was just a Boggart.
It took a while for Hermione to calm down, and finally she was able to control herself again, and she, Ivan, Harry, and Ron returned to the castle.
Ron still wanted to make fun of Hermione's Boggart a little bit, but he quickly shifted his attention. Ivan told them what he had just talked with Sirius, and asked the three of them to get ready to go to the castle hall at night. Gather at the door.
"So, we are going to the centaur tribe tonight to get the powerful magic item left by Gryffindor?" Ron asked excitedly.
"That's right!" Ivan continued, "Harry, put on your invisibility cloak. Sirius has specifically ordered us to be seen by no one else."
Chapter 337 Arithmetic Divination and Argument
The conversation continued until the four of them finished their lunch in the auditorium.
"What should we do after we get that item?" Ron looked towards the Forbidden Forest and said uncertainly, "Since the power of that thing can help Sirius and the others make the Marauder's Map, maybe it can help us increase our magic power... "
"This is not a good idea. Strength should be accumulated little by little, instead of relying on the improvement of magic items!" Hermione frowned and said, "Besides, we may not be able to get that thing yet, Sirius said it would be difficult." test."
"With Ivan here, any test is not a problem." Ron said indifferently, "What's more, the four of us are all students of Gryffindor College, since it is an item left by him..."
"Okay, the same thing, you have said it many times before, we can talk about this topic after the exam." Hermione turned a thick magic book out of her schoolbag, "Whoever Gryffin What's left, I just want to review my arithmetic and divination before the exam."
Hermione waved to Ivan and Harry, turned and walked towards the library.
"She must be crazy, isn't she?!" said Ron in surprise. "In the face of the Gryffindor treasure key and the adventures of the centaur tribe, she can only think about her test results?"
"I think Hermione is right." Harry said worriedly, "Since we have performed poorly in front of us, divination is very important, but I don't know anything, and I can't see through the fog at all." future……"
"Come on, we all know that!" Ron said contemptuously, pointing his thumb at Professor Trelawney's tower, "She's an old liar."
"Yes!" said Harry, "but I hope she doesn't score too low."
"Professor Trelawney likes to hear tragic things predicted by others." Ivan suggested, "If the two of you can't see anything in the crystal ball for a while, you can make up some, such as what she has been saying about the ominous, big Rods, Falcons or something."
"That's right, that's exactly what we need." Ron agreed, "Foretelling that I will suffer misfortune, death and fear follow..."
"We're off to our exams, and we'll meet in the common room later," said Harry.
Looking at the backs of the two of them, Ivan shook his head.
Not surprisingly, he should be like them next year, relying on fabricating his own unfortunate future, hoping to satisfy Professor Trelawney and pass the divination exam.
After being separated from Harry and Ron, Ivan returned to the common room alone.Because all the exams in the first and second grades have ended, the atmosphere in the common room is very relaxed at this time. Everyone talks and laughs together and discusses their results.
Ivan did not join them, he reviewed several manuscripts to be submitted to the "Hogwarts Wizardry News", and played a few games of wizard chess with Colin.When it was getting dark and the others started to go to dinner, he waited for a while by himself before Harry, Ron, and Hermione returned to the common room.
"How was the exam?" Ivan stood up and asked.
"It's a mess!" Harry replied, "I didn't see anything in the crystal ball except the scar on the table, so I just made it up."
"Me too!" Ron continued, "I said I would meet a centaur tonight, but she didn't quite believe it, and kept asking me if I was going to be killed by a centaur or something like that."
"I told you a long time ago that divination is a waste of time. You two should learn arithmetic divination with me next year!" Hermione commented, "Compared to illusory divination, arithmetic divination is very methodical. Dialyze everything in the evolution of
"Forgive me, we can't handle it!" Ron shook his head repeatedly. "Those numbers look like a headache, like Muggle learning, I know they call it science. Think about it, spirit How can a normal wizard accept these things."
"Numbers are the charm of arithmetic and divination." Hermione insisted.
"Only crazy Muggle people would learn these things, I wouldn't..."
"Ron!" said Hermione disapprovingly, raising her voice.
"Hurry up and eat, we can talk about this on the road, there is still a long way to go to the centaur tribe deep in the Forbidden Forest." Ai Wen hurriedly interrupted, "Let's go, don't let Sirius wait for us too Long."
Hermione hesitated for a moment, and seemed to be very concerned about Ron's evaluation of arithmetic and divination, especially the sentence that only lunatics would learn arithmetic and divination.
She ended up saying nothing, though.
Harry went back to the bedroom and took off the cloak, and they went down to dinner with the others, but they didn't return to Gryffindor Tower after dinner.
Aiwen asked Colin to help them cover, and the four of them observed carefully.
Harry kept the Cloak hidden under the front of his robes, and he had to keep his arms folded to hide the bulge underneath.
They sneaked into an empty classroom near the dimly lit front hall, and leaned over the door to listen for a while, until they were sure that no one was around.
"I can transform, you three use invisibility cloaks!" After Ivan finished speaking, he turned and turned into a black cat.
"This is really cool, I also want to learn how to transform Animagus." Ron said enviously, staring blankly at Ivan who turned into a black cat.
"Then you need a profound theoretical foundation of transfiguration, as well as powerful magic power as the support for the first transformation." Hermione said casually, "This is a very profound magic, not to mention minor wizards, many powerful wizards also Can't do that."
"But, Ivan did it?!"
"That's why he's very strong and able to master the powerful magic power he got suddenly." Hermione said bluntly, because she was still angry with Ron because of the arithmetic divination, "but you are different, don't talk about magic power And esoteric metamorphosis, you are not even willing to understand simple numbers, I think what you need now is to read more books, not to fantasize about mastering some illusory and profound magic..."
Hearing Hermione's words, Ron's ears were visibly red.
Ivan jumped on Hermione's shoulder, signaling her to calm down and not to speak too much.
Because of Hermione's outburst, the atmosphere was slightly awkward.Ron blushed and seemed to want to apologize to Hermione, but he opened his mouth and finally said nothing.
After a long time, Harry lowered his voice and said, "There's no one out there, we'd better hurry up!"
Then, the three of them put on the invisibility cloak, huddled together and tiptoed through the auditorium under the invisibility cloak, and Ivan followed them and walked down the stone steps to the gate.
At this time, the sun had already set behind the Forbidden Forest, and the dark yellow afterglow was shining on the treetops, while the cool evening breeze was blowing from the front.
Chapter 338 The temple and the vision in the sky
Harry, Ron, and Hermione walked in silence, and the atmosphere was a little awkward.
Hermione seemed determined to ignore Ron, walking on Harry's left.
Ron walked on the right, wanted to apologize several times, but did nothing until the end.
Harry was caught in the middle of the embarrassment. He tried to find a few topics, but failed. He wanted to ask Ivan for help. The black cat that Ivan turned into had gone to nowhere and was not around the three of them.
The sky gradually dimmed, and after ten minutes, they walked to Hagrid's hut.
Hagrid still didn't come back from the auditorium, and only the barking of the hound Fang Fang could be heard in the room.
"Where are Sirius and Ivan?" Harry looked around and asked in a low voice, "I didn't see them."
"I don't know!" Ron muttered, turning to look at Hermione.
Just when the three of them were puzzled, a huge black dog jumped out from the shadow of the grass, beside Sirius, was the black cat that Ivan had turned into.
Without speaking, Sirius waved his paw in the direction of the Forbidden Forest.
Everyone walked into the dark woods. They came here to fight the acromantula before, but this time they came to the centaur tribe.
Harry pulled off the Invisibility Cloak only after the castle was completely covered by thick foliage.
"Sirius……"
"We'd better move fast before anyone notices you four leaving the castle at night," said Sirius, reverting back to his human form to lead the way.
Because we have been through it once, we are relatively familiar with the road.
But as the sun went down, the Forbidden Forest still looked gloomy, the darkness and silence were overwhelming, and everyone's spirits were highly tense.
"When I went to the Forbidden Forest to capture the dark creatures used for the exam, I had already greeted the horse people, they knew we were coming today." Sirius said, "Maybe, they will come out to greet us..."
As soon as he finished speaking, a sharp arrow shot onto the road in front of him.
It is a horse person, this is really a special welcome ceremony.
"Careful!" cried Sirius.
Without his reminding, everyone stopped and pulled out their wands and pointed them forward.
"Human..." Just when everyone was on guard, a haughty voice sounded, and a tall centaur came out from the shadows.
Not surprisingly, it was Margaret, Sirius' old enemy.
"Good evening, Margaret!" Sirius pointed to Aiwen beside him, and continued, "You should already know that this boy has solved the Acantara."
"The stars have already told us about this, respected human warrior, you have gained the friendship and recognition of the centaur, and the elders are waiting for you in the tribe!" Margery bowed slightly to Aiwen to show his respect.
Like human wizards, centaurs respect the strong.
The request made by the elders of the centaur was to weaken the power of the acromantula. They originally thought that Aiwen and others would kill a few acromantia casually, just like a newly grown foal in the tribe successfully hunted alone.
They will observe in secret to test whether the courage of the four meets the requirements.
No one thought that Aiwen could solve the acromantula in the Forbidden Forest by himself.
This is simply too incredible, even the most powerful centaurs can not do this.
The strong are respected, and Margaret is not as arrogant as before when dealing with Aiwen.
But when he turned his head and looked at Sirius, Harry, Ron, and Hermione, he was still furious, as if he wanted to rush over and fight them.
On the road behind, Margaret and Sirius were the same as before. The two of them disliked each other and kept arguing. If it weren't for the presence of Ivan, Harry, Ron, and Hermione, they might have fought immediately .
As they approached the centaur tribe, more and more centaurs joined the team.
The line was getting longer and longer, surrounded by the vibration of horseshoes falling on the ground.Ivan saw Ronan and Bain, and they didn't look any different from before, but this time he didn't pretend not to know them, but nodded slightly stiffly.
Also, Firenze with eyes like sapphires.
He greeted everyone friendly, walked up to Ivan, and began to talk to him about what happened in the Forbidden Forest recently, as well as some warnings from the planets.
"The nearest Mars is extremely bright, and the energy emitted is particularly unstable." Firenze said softly, "Ivan, this is not a good omen, maybe..."
Margaret snorted heavily, turned her head and gave Firenze a warning look.
Maybe it was because of Ivan's face that he didn't say anything.
Ivan still remembered that Margaret had said the last time they met that they all knew the fate of themselves and Harry, and this fate was destined to be irreversible.He asked Firenze not to tell them what the centaur had seen, because it would be a very shameful thing.
But this time he didn't explicitly object, which is strange.
Ivan would not think that because he solved the acromantia and was recognized by the centaur, he was qualified to share the secrets they knew from the stars in the sky.
It's not a question of camaraderie and approval, it's a question of race.
The centaurs will not impart any of their unique knowledge to humans, otherwise they will be expelled from the tribe forever and become outcasts.
Or worse, get killed.
This is also the main reason why two years later, after Firenze agreed to Dumbledore's request to become a professor of divination at Hogwarts, he could no longer approach the Forbidden Forest.
But now, Firenze obviously wanted to say something to himself.
This is too abnormal, Ivan doesn't think he is greater than Dumbledore.
"Do you know what this means?!" Firenze said softly, his sapphire-like eyes shining brightly, "It means war, and the war is about to begin."
