Mastering Thunder from Hogwarts

This is the latest tracking spell developed by Anduin. He calls it the 'Tracing Spell'. It is based on the tracking spell and is developed by integrating some blood magic, smell runes, and temperature runes.

Moreover, he engraved the corresponding manifestation spell on the new monocle. When the two are combined, he can detect blood stains, footprints, odor traces, life characteristics and other elements.

The bloodstains on the ground will appear light red in sight. The light spots around the ground are traces of biological activities related to the bloodstains. The fog appearing above is traces of smell. At the same time, if there are scratches on the trees and rocks nearby, or if they have been affected by certain

The touch and stay of time will also reveal halos of different shades.

There are two ways to use this spell. One is non-locking detection, which can see the clues appearing in the field of vision. However, the disadvantage is that it is more susceptible to interference, and he needs to carefully distinguish them one by one.

However, there is another way to use the tracking spell to lock the sample for precise tracking. Just like what he is locking now is the bloodstain of the Hippogriff, the surrounding light spots are also related to the Hippogriff.

"There are the most clues here. There are a lot of blood stains and feathers left on the ground. Preliminary judgment should be that they belong to hippogriffs. There are scratches on the trees on both sides. It seems that there was a fierce battle between the two sides."

Anduin then carefully inspected the traces left around him, which were mainly fallen tree branches on the ground and claw marks on the trees.

"There are claw marks that are different from those of Hippogriff. There are no bite marks. It seems that the main attack method of the target creature is double claws. The height of the scratch marks is not low. Could it be a large creature? But the size of the scratches can be used to judge the creature.

It shouldn’t be big, maybe it’s a jumping attack?”

Anduin made a preliminary inference based on the traces at the scene. The target should be a medium-sized creature weighing no more than 300 kilograms, with powerful forelimbs with more than four fingers, agile movements and good jumping ability. The number is unknown.

"First of all, it is certain that it is not a dragon. Suspected targets include chimaeras, cat leopards, werewolves, wetland werewolves, poison leopards, manticores, griffins, etc. The next step is to find a way

Found it."

Then he turned his attention to the blood stain again, and two moving traces were separated along the blood stain, and the smell of blood mist was also divided into two sides.

"One of them leads outside the Forbidden Forest. It seems to be the Hippogriff's escape route. However, the Hippogriff must have been seriously injured. Why doesn't it continue to pursue it?"

Anduin followed the return path and checked again, and found that the aura and traces belonging to the hippogriff extended for more than ten meters and then floated directly into the air.

"It seems that the hippogriff endured the pain and flew away, so it was able to escape. In other words, the attacking party does not have the ability to fly, right? Then we can rule out flying creatures such as griffins.

Already."

Then Anduin returned to the scene again. This time he looked at another trace. Unsurprisingly, this was the route the target creature took when it left. Since the opponent was contaminated with the blood and breath of the Hippogriff, so

The traces revealed are quite clear.

Anduin then cautiously started exploring along this path. After a while, the footprints on the ground were either covered by fallen leaves or destroyed by other creatures. Now he could only follow the bloody smell forward.

Moreover, these traces were intermittent and weakened, causing a lot of trouble for his exploration.

However, with his persistence, Anduin finally made a discovery. After exploring for another kilometer, Anduin stopped behind a big tree.

"What is this?" Anduin squatted down, plucked the fallen leaves on the ground with his hands, then twirled a bunch of hair and looked at it.

"The target must have rested here for a while, which is why the marks are so heavy. The remaining hair is dark and there are blood stains on it."

"Huh? No." Anduin looked at the blood stains on the hair and identified it carefully, "This is not the blood stain of the hippogriff. The trace spell does not respond to it, which means that the target is actually injured.

"

"But no other hair or blood samples were found at the battle scene just now. It seems that the target only received minor injuries or has a strong self-healing ability." Anduin looked at this strand of hair and judged.

"Then the murderer can be initially determined to be a werewolf or a wetland werewolf. However, the wetland werewolf mainly lives in the Americas. It should be a local werewolf, but why do they appear on the outskirts near Hogwarts."

"No matter what, I want to find it. I don't know if it is a native werewolf or a werewolf. I hope we can communicate. If it is a native werewolf that lives completely in werewolf form, it will be in trouble and must be solved as soon as possible."

After Anduin made his judgment, he used the trace-finding spell directly on this tuft of hair. With new clues, the traces in his field of vision gradually became richer.

A gray haze of light was like a transparent ribbon, extending from the big tree where Anduin was to the depths of the Forbidden Forest, winding and criss-crossing. It was obvious that from here on, the target's activities became disorderly.

And from here on, there were many traces of the activities of other creatures in the surroundings. They were more or less contaminated with the scent of some targets, causing various strange smells to mix, which also interfered with tracking.

In response to this situation, Anduin first used the function of the Echo Spell to scan hundreds of meters around to eliminate some erroneous auras. At the same time, he used the Trace Spell to cross the blood of the Hippogriff and the target.

More or less, the target's direction of travel was still locked.

Following these remaining traces, Anduin continued to delve deeper. At the same time, starting from here, he discovered some traces of the activities of other magical creatures and many wild herbs.

For these wild herbs, once you see them, you can't let them go.

After reaping the rewards, Anduin looked forward to this trip to the Forbidden Forest even more. No matter what the final result was, at least it was not a waste of time.

Anduin then gradually followed the traces left by the murderer, and time gradually passed until he came to a river several meters wide.

"After arriving here, the clues were interrupted. There were no clues along the sides of the river. In other words, the target had crossed this river." Looking at the river in front of him, Anduin frowned and felt a little confused.

This river blocked all traces of the murderer. If the werewolf waded across the river, the river water would most likely dilute the smell, so he was not sure whether there would be any harvest on the other side of the river bank.

And if the werewolf didn't cross the river directly but swam along the river, it would be troublesome.
