Magical Studies at Hogwarts

"Forbidden Forest! Dumbledore asked you to hide your weapons in the Forbidden Forest! Take me there, now!"

Umbridge was extremely excited, even a little impatient. As long as she thought about the possible reward after actually finding Dumbledore's weapon against the Ministry of Magic and handing it to the Minister, she felt that every cell in her body was excited.

Jumping with joy.

"Come on, come with me and see what Dumbledore has prepared!"

"He... they can't go..." Hermione's words immediately poured cold water on Umbridge, "That was prepared by Dumbledore, and you don't want too many people to know about it, after all..."

As she said that, Hermione glanced at the Slytherin students next to her, her eyes wandering and indicating something. Seeing this, Umbridge calmed down, had several thoughts in her mind, and had already figured out the key.

He took the wand in his hand again, pulled Harry up from the ground, pointed at Hermione and said: "Then you two take me there! Now, immediately!"

She pushed Harry hard, causing him to stumble, and walked out first. Hermione struggled for a while and finally broke free from Burst's restraints.

He glanced at him with cold eyes, stretched out his hand, and the wand flew back from Malfoy's hand. He put it into his pocket, covered it with his clothes, chased after Harry and Umbridge, and closed the door behind him.

He opened the office door. But the moment the door closed, a white light quietly slipped in through the crack in the door.

"Hurry up, follow me!" Umbridge was still urging, and Hermione responded and ran over. She didn't think much about it, and when Hermione came over, she pushed her on the back and held it in her hand.

Using the wand, he urged the two of them towards the direction of the Forbidden Forest.

Hermione walked in front, and Harry took a half step back. Although he didn't know what Hermione's plan was, he knew very well that it would definitely not work if he showed that he didn't know where he was going.

He didn't talk to Hermione for fear of ruining Hermione's plan.

They walked through the corridors and stairs, exited the foyer and walked directly towards Hagrid's hut. But they didn't stop, they crossed the hut and entered the Forbidden Forest.

Hermione strode very fast, and Harry was not slow either. He already vaguely knew where Hermione was going. It was a bit difficult for Umbridge to follow, especially as they walked deeper and deeper, the surrounding trees

After there were more and more and the light became darker and darker, I couldn't help but feel a little worried.

"Isn't it here yet? Where is it?" Umbridge asked.

Hermione's voice was a little erratic as she replied: "It's still in there. After all, it's a weapon. We can't let the students discover it, right?"

"Yes, yes..." Umbridge responded casually. In her opinion, what Hermione said made sense.

They walked deeper, and there were gradually more bushes around them. Hermione, who was walking at the front, kept her pace, making the bushes rustle.

The sound was very loud, and in this dim environment, it added a bit of a terrifying atmosphere out of thin air.

Suddenly, Harry noticed that the ground beneath his feet was shaking, and the deafening sound of footsteps was heard in his ears. When he was stunned, he heard Hermione in front of him curse "Damn" in a low voice, before he could say anything.

When he asked, a wooden arrow suddenly shot from his side and directly nailed the tree next to him.

"Stop! This is not the place you should come!"

A voice rang out, and Harry recognized that it was Magaret's voice. They had met Grawp when they followed Hagrid and met him before. He was a centaur who hated wizards very much.

Umbridge grabbed Harry and stood in front of her, holding her wand tightly in her hand and staring at the centaurs warily. Although Harry was nervous, he felt at ease when he saw that Hermione was not panicked.

It took a lot of effort, but it wasn’t too much of a struggle.

"Who are you!" A dozen centaurs surrounded them in the center, all raising their bows and arrows. Magorie was at the front, staring closely at Umbridge.

"I am Dolores Umbridge!" Umbridge's voice trembled a little as she shouted back, "I am the Under-Secretary of the Ministry of Magic, the Headmaster of Hogwarts and the Senior Inquisitor!"

"Ministry of Magic?" Magery hesitated for a moment, and the centaurs next to him also made some commotion.

Perhaps the strange movements of the centaurs gave Umbridge some information, and she said loudly: "That's right! So you should pay more attention! You know, according to the laws of the Department for the Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures of the Ministry of Magic, any hybrid like you

Attack humans..."

"What did you call us!" Magery roared angrily, and the other centaurs no longer hesitated, and drew their bows, all aiming at Umbridge.

"What are you doing here! Come to our forest..."

"Your forest?" Umbridge showed no sign of weakness, "The reason why you are here is because the Ministry of Magic allows you to be here. You stupid people..."

"Crack!"

An arrow suddenly shot out, and Umbridge lowered her head subconsciously. The arrow just flew over her head and penetrated into the tree trunk behind her.

"Whose woods? Whose woods?" Magorry shouted. He was so angry that he took out another arrow and put it on his bow. But before he could attack again, Umbridge pointed the wand at him.

, shouted: "Bind quickly!"

A thick and long rope suddenly appeared and tied Magare's arms tightly, leaving a long section to tightly wrap around his neck.

He struggled vigorously, but couldn't break free at all. The other centaurs immediately became anxious when they saw it, and rushed over angrily, grabbing Umbridge before she could react, and dragging her quickly disappeared into the dense forest.

among.

"Untie him quickly!" Hermione waved her wand, and the rope tied to Magaret disappeared. In just a short moment, his face turned red, and he coughed violently for a while without the rope.

Get up from the ground.

"I don't need your help, you are not welcome here!" Magery glared at the two of them and cursed loudly.

Hermione was not angry at all. Instead, she pointed behind him and said, "Before you say something more unpleasant, I think you need to take a look behind you..."

Magare turned his head subconsciously, only to see a huge and ugly face appearing behind him. He was immediately frightened to death and ran away without caring about anything else.

Only then did Harry notice Grawp who had come over at some point. He looked at Hermione stupidly and asked, "How did you do that?"

"What?" Hermione was patting Grawp's big face, and turned around in confusion when she heard this.

"I mean he..." Harry pointed at Grawp, and then pointed at the direction in which Magaret fled, "When did he come here, and why didn't he make any sound?"

"Silencing Curse." Hermione replied casually, then ignored Harry and whispered a few words to Grawp. She patted his big face again, and Grawp looked at Harry's shocked gaze.

left.

As before, there was no sound.

"Come on, it's time for us to leave." Hermione waved her hand in front of Harry's eyes to get his attention back, "It's time for them to arrive too."

"Who are they? Ron?" Harry was stunned and saw Hermione walking out, and quickly followed her.

"Yes, I helped them before leaving, and they should have come in now." Hermione said, "Hurry up, it's still not safe here."

Harry felt that his brain was a little exhausted. The Hermione just now made him feel a little strange. Although she was as reliable as ever, she was very different from her in previous years.

I followed Hermione out and went back faster. When I reached the edge of the Forbidden Forest, I finally saw Ron and others.

They were all a little embarrassed, holding wands in their hands, and strangely, they were all a little excited, even Neville.

"Where are we going next?" Ron asked.

"Where?" Harry repeated subconsciously, and then remembered, "Sirius! We have to save him! He is in the Department of Mysteries!"

"Department of Mysteries?" Ginny frowned, "Now? How are we going to get there?"

"Broom! Let's fly there!" Harry was about to run. "We have to get the broom!"

"But, not all of us have brooms..." Hermione grabbed the anxious Harry. Harry was stunned when he heard this, looked at Hermione and Neville next to him, and scratched his hair angrily.

"Then I'll go by myself..."

"You're going to die!" Hermione said coldly, tightening her grip on Harry's arm.

"Then..." Before Harry finished speaking, Luna said, "We can ride them. Hagrid said they are very good at finding roads."

Harry looked in the direction Luna pointed, but saw nothing. He couldn't help but feel a little annoyed: "There's nothing there, Luna! Now is not the time to joke!"

"No, they are right there, smelling the blood on your body." Luna's voice was still erratic, but firm, "It's just that you can't see it..."

"We can't see..." Hermione muttered, then realized, "Thestrals? It's thestrals! Luna, how many are there?"

"Two," Luna replied.

"But we need six," Ginny interjected.

"It doesn't matter, they are coming..."

Luna stretched out her hand and pointed again. In her eyes, there were six or seven tall Thestrals walking out of the woods. Their huge wings were folded on their sides, and their eyes were shining in the darkness.
