Chapter 74 Second Journey to the Forbidden Forest

Studying life at Hogwarts passes quickly for most young wizards. With another heavy snowfall, Adam ushered in his second Christmas at Hogwarts.

"Students, calm down, calm down."

With the experience of last year, this year the little wizards extended their claws to the various decorations on the table as soon as they stepped into the auditorium. Professor Dumbledore quickly stopped:

"I hope the table isn't too messy by the end of the dinner, okay?"

"No problem, Professor Dumbledore!"

The twins' answers could be heard even by Hufflepuff, but the next second they took away the vase in front of them.

"you?!"

Under Ron's stunned gaze, the two of them smiled brightly at him:

"Little Ronnie, let's finish the whole vase of flowers-"

"Wouldn't it be a mess on the table?"

As they spoke, the two divided the bouquet of flowers and smashed the vase with metal spoons——

The flowers are floral cloud cake, the branches are hazelnut-filled Pocky cookies, and the vase is sweet and light mint candy.

"Oh, by the way, we heard from Adam that this year's table is really edible!"

"Yes, we can swear it in the name of Wizard Wheezes!"

Ron hesitated for a moment, but in the end he couldn't hold back his curiosity, and given the status of Wizard Wheezes in the hearts of Fred and George, they shouldn't lie...

"Ouch——"

After biting it on the corner of the table, Ron's eyes lit up!

Although it cannot be chewed, the texture is obviously not wood...it is really edible!

Harry looked at him and hesitated to speak. Ron was just thinking about the place of Wizard Wheezes in the hearts of the twins. Has he ever thought about what Wizard Wheezes does?

After much effort, Ron finally bit off a corner of the table, chewed it with anticipation... and then his whole face slowly wrinkled.

"What is this... ugh-"

Ron stuck out his tongue, and the entire tongue was covered in a dark, sticky substance.

"One hundred percent pure chocolate——"

“We guarantee you it’s edible!”

The twins looked at each other, with identical smiles on their faces, and high-fived——

“It’s just that not everyone can accept the taste!”

“Sometimes I’m really curious, how many kinds of delicacies are there in Adam’s head?”

Cedric's mouth was stuffed full of strawberries, and his voice became muffled.

"What you should be curious about is how many kinds of food there are in the world."

As Adam spoke, he reached out and grabbed a gingerbread man running past him and threw it into his mouth.

Hmm~ It’s brown sugar flavored.

In a warm atmosphere, more than half of the Christmas banquet passed, Cologne suddenly spoke:

"Eh? I just said something doesn't feel right. It turns out that Professor Lockhart is not here..."

"Why mention him properly? Isn't it just right that he doesn't come?"

Bernard looked unhappy when he heard this name.

"I'm just curious. Generally speaking, this guy won't miss any opportunity to attract everyone's attention..."

Colon thought about it and felt that it was indeed unlucky, so he continued to turn his attention to the golden and crispy red bean pie in front of him.

Lockhart... He is currently in love with new female fans such as Annabelle, Ghost Sister, and Corona. I don't think he will have time to dance during this holiday.

The man who helped secure a normal Christmas holiday for everyone shrugged and hid his reputation.

On the second day of the banquet, everyone slept in neatly. In the afternoon, some played wizard chess against the fireplace, some read books, and some practiced spells.

After dinner, they gathered again in Adam's dormitory, with the goal - the Forbidden Forest!

"Adam, are you okay? I always feel this posture is a bit embarrassing..."

Under the supplementary light of the light sign, Colon, half squatting with one hand on the ground, spoke silently.

"I also……"

Uther leaned his body sideways, holding his elbow with one hand, and pointed the index finger of the other hand on his forehead in a contemplative manner, with half of his face in shadow.

"Oh, it'll be fine soon, come on! Three-two-one-"

As the flash came on, the poses of the five people were frozen on the film.

"call--"

Eugene put down his hand and took a deep breath, rubbing his cheek:

"I suddenly regretted it. It won't look embarrassing when it comes out in the end, right?"

"Oh, how could that happen? Everyone is so handsome!"

Adam waved his hand and ran up to put away the camera. The camera with the tripod could be put away using the small compartment in the satchel under the magic of the small brand.

“I didn’t take any photos last time I visited the Forbidden Forest, but this time the scenery is even better~”

"I hope I won't encounter the Acromantula again this time..."

Bernard sighed, that kind of thing really ruins the adventure experience.

"Don't worry, I brought a secret weapon to deal with the Acromantula this time. Even if we encounter one, there will be no problem."

Adam patted his satchel.

When he encountered the Acromantula again, he directly opened the jar and released the Basilisk. The spider's 360-degree viewing angle and the eyeball structure that could not close its eyes destined the Basilisk to defeat all spiders.

After being prepared, the group of five people walked into the Forbidden Forest.

"The grass in front of you on the left is moving. There must be some animal that saw us approaching and ran away. Do you want to chase after it?"

Bernard raised the lantern and said excitedly.

Although the surrounding air is illuminated by small light balls emitted by Adam, wouldn’t holding a lantern make it more atmospheric~

"Such a movement should be just a rabbit."

Colon analyzed calmly, but then became a little uncertain:

"The young Yue Chi Beast seems to be this big too?"

"The moonlight tonight doesn't look like there will be a Moon-Crazy Beast coming out."

Adam glanced at the waning moon above his head:

"But this is our first discovery. It doesn't hurt to chase after it and take a look."

Finding traces of walking in the grass, the five of them walked forward and followed them to a small river.

"There is actually a river in the Forbidden Forest?"

Cologne first exclaimed, and then slapped himself on the face:

"Oh, okay, I was stupid..."

Such a large forest and the animals in it cannot rely solely on precipitation to support themselves.

"The bad news is that we probably lost the chase, but the good news is that we have a greater chance of finding magical animals by following the river."

Uther walked to the river and squatted down, checking for possible footprints on the river:

"This should belong to a deer. What is this hoof?"

"A centaur, a unicorn, a hippogriff... are all possible. The footprints may not be very directional."

Adam shrugged, suddenly reached out and grabbed Uther's shoulder and pulled him back: "Be careful——!"

Just as Uther left his position, a big green mouth emerged from the water.

"Thunderbolt explosion!"

Blood spread in the river, and Uther clutched his chest, his heart beating rapidly.

"...That's a Grindylow."

Although it was just a quick glance, Cologne still recognized the owner of that mouth.

Grindylow is a small water monster with great strength but a very fragile body. It can usually only deal with unsuspecting Muggles and very young wizards. The danger level is XX... the same level as Puff Rong.

"The danger is secondary, the main thing is that it's a bit scary to suddenly come out..."

Adam was also caught off guard and subconsciously stretched out his hand to pull. In fact, he could easily deal with a horse-shaped water monster even if he opened a shield and rushed out.

It seems that he is still not used to the existence of magic in his subconscious...
