Hogwarts Collector, I cast a spell with the Eye of God - Chapter 79
“Hagrid, we are just curious and want to see those cute little creatures you mentioned.” Ye Ting was eager to learn,”For example, centaurs and giant spiders, how magical are they?”
“No, this is too dangerous. You are just first or second grade wizards. If something happens,……”Hagrid sighed and didn’t continue.
If it was a senior, he would still consider it.
Seeing that he was not willing to listen, Ye Ting could only change his persuasion method.
“Oh, Hagrid, you should know my abilities.-”
Ye Ting sighed softly, and a purple light suddenly flashed in his eyes. He opened his eyes suddenly, and an inexplicable aura emanated from him.
Then Hagrid felt that his hair and beard were floating up without wind.
He was uneducated and didn’t know that this was a reflection of the rapid increase in the concentration of ions in the air.
Then, he found that the sky, which was just near dusk, suddenly darkened, as if the night had come early. The sky above was covered by dark clouds, and lightning shuttled through it, flashing dangerous light.
But time obviously didn’t pass so fast, could it be?!
Hagrid looked at Ye Ting in shock.
Ye Ting’s eyes were shining, and the whole person seemed to be lifted up by a mysterious force and suspended in the air.
From time to time, a trace of arc appeared between the soles of his feet and the ground, and the whole person was like a god.
Then, he just waved his hand lightly.
“”Boom!”
A bolt of lightning suddenly struck down, hitting the oak tree that Hagrid had shot through.
In an instant, the entire tree was split into charcoal by lightning, and it was a mess.
Ye Ting waved his hand again.
Another tree fell down and turned into charcoal.
His power seemed endless and daunting.
Ye Ting then dispersed the purple light in his eyes and slowly fell from the sky.
As Ye Ting dispersed the purple light in his eyes and slowly descended from the air, the dim sky gradually returned to its original color.
Everything seemed to have returned to calm, but the two charcoal-like trees witnessed everything that had just happened.
“I have some other spells,”
Ye Ting clapped his hands in satisfaction,”but the place here is too small to use them.”
Although [Cang Lei] is only Lisa’s fighting skill, it must be said that if it is used to show off, even Lisa’s ultimate move [Rose Lightning] cannot compare to the charged [Cang Lei].】
“Uh… this……”
Hagrid was stunned, his eyes wandering on the two trees that had turned to charcoal, and then turned to the extraordinary little wizard in front of him.
The moment he waved his hand just now, the wind and clouds changed color, as if the end of the world had come. The shocking scene left an indelible impression on Hagrid’s mind.
Such power is a bit exaggerated.
With such a little wizard, who is protecting whom…
Seeing that Hagrid was a little shaken, Ye Ting immediately seized the opportunity and struck while the iron was hot.
“Hagrid, we promise to follow you and never run away.”
“If we encounter any dangerous situation, we will definitely retreat to a safe place as soon as possible.”
“This is much better than just barging in blindly.”
“Think about Fred and George. We were very good people for not breaking into the Forbidden Forest like they did!”
“If that doesn’t work, you can give us a map to find the way!”
After showing his strength, Ye Ting began to persuade Hagrid earnestly… uh, persuaded him. These words obviously touched Hagrid and relieved his worries.
Hagrid pondered for a moment – of course, this job was somewhat inconsistent with his position – then he took out a wrinkled leather jacket from his leather jacket of unknown material.
“What is this? Is it a map?”Ye Ting’s eyes lit up.
He just mentioned it casually, but he didn’t expect that Hagrid actually had a so-called map here?
He thought that people like Hagrid relied on intuition to walk in the Forbidden Forest.
He couldn’t wait to spread out the yellowed parchment scroll, and a hand-drawn map of the Forbidden Forest appeared before him.
Although the drawing was not very delicate, it clearly marked Hagrid’s hut, the general outline of the Forbidden Forest, and the specially marked centaur tribe.
But what made him even more excited was that the map also marked in detail the distribution of various precious wild herbs, including magical plants that have grown for hundreds of years.
At the same time, the territorial scope of dangerous magical creatures is also clear at a glance.
This is the map he wanted.
With it, Ye Ting can enter the Forbidden Forest by himself without worrying about the low search efficiency.
“Keep this for yourself. If we get separated, you will know where you are.……”Hagrid warned
“Don’t worry, I will take everyone to a safe place.”
Ye Ting thought for a moment and said,”To be honest, I feel safe following you.”
Hagrid patted his belly proudly,”I know this forest very well.”
In fact, it is not difficult to convince Hagrid, he is a very easy person to understand.
For example, if you have a secret that you want to make public, just tell the secret to Hagrid and say to him”keep it a secret for me”, then you can rest assured and wait for the secret to spread throughout Hogwarts.
Of course, the key to success this time is that Ye Ting showed his strength and made Hagrid understand that he could ensure the safety of his teammates.
In this way, Hagrid believed that with himself and Ye Ting, this expedition would at best be a wildlife sightseeing trip with a little excitement.
But this does not mean that the Forbidden Forest is not dangerous.
The deep woods are like a maze, and you will get lost if you are not careful. Not to mention that there are countless dangerous magical creatures lurking there, such as the eight-eyed giant spider that covers half of the Forbidden Forest, and the terrible mountain trolls.
Oh yes, there are also various poisonous plants that ordinary wizards have no way to distinguish, not to mention that they usually lack the equipment to deal with them.
“Don’t forget to return the map to me later.”Hagrid reminded before departure.
He was afraid that Ye Ting would rely on the map to secretly explore the Forbidden Forest.
Of course, Ye Ting agreed.
Hagrid was still trying to put himself in others’ shoes. As a half-giant, he obviously underestimated the intelligence of people like Ye Ting. He could remember a map like this by just taking a few careful glances.
“Just this once……”
As they left, Hagrid was still muttering,”Don’t be like those two troublemakers from the Weasley family. I spent the whole last year trying to get them out.””
“Then let’s… go!” Ye Ting followed Hagrid and walked towards the Forbidden Forest.
After successfully persuading Hagrid, Zhang Qiu could hardly hide his surprise.
As for Susan, her eyes had already become starry when she saw Ye Ting’s method of driving thunder and lightning.
As the sky gradually turned into night, they embarked on a journey of exploring the Forbidden Forest.
The woods were dense, and the leaves like screens separated the falling snowflakes from the earth. The moonlight was filtered through layers of leaves, like diluted silver ink sprinkled on the dark forest land, forming patches of flickering light spots, and the breeze blew slowly with the mixed fragrance of soil and dead leaves.
This quiet forest night was broken by a heavy sound of footsteps.
It was a pair of huge black round-toed leather shoes, more than fifty yards, just Hagrid’s big feet.
Hagrid walked in front and led the way , he held Fang tightly in his left hand, and held an ancestral oil lamp in his right hand, with the slingshot hanging on his broad shoulders.
In fact, Hagrid hoped to take Fluffy, a three-headed dog, with him for a trip, as such a behemoth would be more worthy of his physique.
Although Fang was brave, in Hagrid’s eyes, he might still lack momentum.
Hagrid walked forward with a steady pace, and his speed seemed slow, but in fact, the three people behind him had to jog to keep up with his pace.
Hey, it’s good to be young, energetic and motivated.
If it were the old-timers in the senior year, they would definitely avoid this thankless Forbidden Forest expedition.
Hagrid in front still seemed a little worried. He turned to the three people behind him and said: (To read the violent novels, go to Faloo Novel Network!)
“Why don’t you go back now? If there is anything you like in the Forbidden Forest, I can bring it back for you.”
Ye Ting smiled and responded:
“Hagrid, don’t worry about us. There is a saying that goes,”It is better to guide than to block.” We are just curious. Besides, with you here, the Forbidden Forest is not that scary. As long as we don’t provoke those big guys, they should be deep in the Forbidden Forest, right?”
“That’s hard to say.”
Hagrid shook his head and said seriously,”Last time a wild manticore broke into the Forbidden Forest, and I had to break its legs before it learned the rules of the Forbidden Forest.”
At this point, Hagrid’s face showed a hint of pride
“What is a manticore beast with a human head, a lion body and a manticore tail? Susan asked curiously.
“It is a monster with a human head, a lion’s body and a scorpion’s tail.”

Hermione is not here, so Ye Ting can only play the role of popular science temporarily:”In the classification of the Ministry of Magic, its danger level has reached”XXXXXIts hide repels nearly all spells, and a sting from its tail will kill instantly.”
As dangerous and rare as the Chimera, the Manticore is famous for the soft hum it makes as it devours its prey.
Its hide repels nearly all known spells, and a sting from its tail will kill instantly.
When it comes to subduing a wild Manticore, few wizards, save the Hufflepuff wizard who was regarded as a thorn in Grindelwald’s side, dare to say that they can handle it single-handedly.
Hagrid is worthy of being Hagrid
“”Cool!”
Zhang Qiu exclaimed sincerely,”I remember Marietta told me that the Ministry of Magic once transported a manticore, a sphinx, a manticore, and a tail. It took an entire Auror team from Greece to handle it. It took eight people working together to handle it!”
“Haha, maybe they are just afraid of hurting the manticore.”
Hagrid smiled and continued,”Those guys in the Department for Care of Magical Creatures, well… they are really good.……”
Hagrid seemed to be at a loss for words, and he seemed to be struggling with how to praise them more appropriately.
“”Oh, to be honest, the Forbidden Forest is not as safe as you think.”[]
He changed the subject and his tone became serious,”If we run into a group of two-horned beasts or poisonous rhinos, I’m afraid your small bodies won’t be enough to fill their teeth.”
“But don’t serpentines eat grass?” Susan asked.
“Don’t underestimate it, it’s the most dangerous thing in this forbidden forest.”、
Hagrid said with a smile, his eyes lit up when talking about magical animals, especially wild beasts, this is the area he is most proud of. Maybe in this regard, only Master Scamander can talk to him.
The group walked and talked, slowly moving forward along the forest path.
In fact, there are no real roads in the Forbidden Forest. Most of them are narrow paths trampled by wild beasts, and many of them are not suitable for humans.
After all, if we only talk about physical fitness and survival ability in the wild, humans are not top-notch.
Fortunately, intelligence is their magic weapon. For example, when Zhang Qiu fell halfway, Ye Ting quickly cast the [Floating Spell] and easily rescued her.
But the girl’s physical coordination is really good, not to mention that with the Forbidden Forest leader leading the way, those potential small traps are naturally easy for them to bypass.
Susan, on the other hand, still needs a little help occasionally.
“Don’t be afraid, Susan, just jump, I’m here to catch you.”Ye Ting encouraged.
Beside the river in the Forbidden Forest, Ye Ting cast the [Floating Spell] to hold the two girls steadily and help them successfully cross the three-meter-wide river.
Although the feeling of being controlled by magic was a bit awkward, this exciting and safe fun activity was well received by them.
At least, from the smile on Susan’s face, it was not difficult to see that she was enjoying this trip to the Forbidden Forest.
However, as the sky got darker, the four of them went deeper into the dark hinterland of the Forbidden Forest. Their actions gradually changed from a relaxing and enjoyable jungle outing to a completely eerie and strange paranormal activity.
“”Oh, this is not right.” Hagrid looked up and saw the gray spider web in the sky, frowning, then alertly took the slingshot from his back and held it tightly in his hand.
Suddenly, a golden mist seemed to sense their arrival and surged towards them.
“”Be careful, that’s the pollen of the fuchsia, don’t get close!” Ye Ting hurriedly warned.
The fuchsia is a very rare magical plant. Its flowers are golden, and its overall appearance is similar to its non-magical relatives. When it grows, it will hang in the shape of an upside-down bell.
When it blooms completely, the fuchsia will release golden pollen. When its pollen is inhaled into the body, it will make people hallucinate and feel that they are hanging upside down in the air.
Ye Ting waved his hand casually, and the wind element gathered. A strong airflow swept in, blowing the golden mist back a long way.
He took the opportunity to step forward and broke off a branch with a few flowers.
“Well, take this back to the little bud, it should like it.”
This is what Ye Ting likes about the Forbidden Forest, magical plants like fuchsia, which can’t even be found in Professor Sprout’s greenhouse.
