Chapter 75: Meeting in the Deep Forest...

The Grindylow was just a small episode. As they walked downstream along the river, they discovered a lot more.

Not only ordinary animals such as deer and rabbits, but also two nests of the Moon-Child Beast. Those big eyes made Adam unable to help but be curious about the structure of the Moon-Child Beast's mind.

But after stroking the soft fur of the Moon Crazy Beast twice, Adam put this question, which was a bit scary and cruel to think about, behind him.

"Why?!"

I just squatted and issued a complaint:

"Do I look scary?"

Of course this was a joke, everyone in the dormitory was pretty good-looking, but that didn't stop Cologne from feeling hurt inside.

"Um, maybe Adam is more in line with Yue Chimon's aesthetics?"

Although Uther squatted down, Moon Chimon would not run away directly, but after extending his hand towards Moon Chimon, Yue Chimon would still stay away slightly to avoid being touched.

Look at Adam, who is now being hugged and rubbed by the Moon-Crazy Beast...

"Tsk——"

His mind was spinning so slowly that he was still envious of Adam. The clever Eugene had already rubbed himself against Adam and received the hug of the Moon-Child Beast:

"It should be pretty safe here."

The Moon-Crazy Beast, as well as the ordinary animals encountered before, can hardly resist the ferocious carnivores, let alone those powerful magical animals. Since they thrive here, it means that there are no predators nearby. .

"Ouch——"

A sudden wail pierced the night sky, and Adam and others quickly stood up and looked in the direction of the sound.

"Ahem, no...it's okay..."

Bernard stood up holding his stomach:

"I was a little curious just now whether the pink moon-crazy beast was male or female. I lifted up its tail to take a look, but got kicked..."

Not far from Bernard, a pink-haired moon-crazy beast jumped on the spot and screamed so loudly.

Well, it should be called quite dirty.

Adam, who was learning snake language, subconsciously wrote down this piece of moon-crazy beast language.

It turns out that swearing is the fastest way to learn any language.

"You should be lucky that it wasn't a Hippogriff, otherwise you would have dispersed by now."

Colon complained.

"No, if it were a Hippogriff, I wouldn't look at it directly..."

Bernard has vindicated himself as a curious but not stupid man.

"We should go, we've been here long enough."

Eugene said.

And Bernard may not be too popular next.

After bidding farewell to the Moon-Crazy Beasts, Adam and his friends seemed to have suddenly run out of luck. They didn't meet any animals for a long time.

"Everyone, look at this!"

Cologne reached out his hand on the tree trunk and pinched something sharply. When he saw it before everyone's eyes, he saw a few silver-white hairs:

"This is unicorn hair!"

"How did you see it?"

Bernard couldn't help but complain, and at the same time he couldn't help but feel a little excited - that's a unicorn!

Although he had just received a pair of chopsticks made of unicorn horns, he had never seen a live unicorn.

"I also happened to see it by reflecting the light. It seems that there are unicorn activities nearby, and this luster... the unicorn has not gone far yet."

Colon took a closer look at the unicorn hair in his hand:

"Unicorns are diurnal animals. Night is when they sleep. This unicorn must have noticed our movements before getting up and escaping, and even bumped into a tree."

"Doesn't that mean you haven't run far yet?"

Bernard was a little excited:

"We can try to catch up!"

"What's the use of chasing a unicorn?"

Eugene patted Bernard on the shoulder:

"Unicorns only accept the approach of virgins, and some of us are not even women."

"Then we can at least take a look at it from a distance...I haven't seen a live unicorn yet."

Bernard was a little unwilling to miss out on the unicorn.

"Then let's go and have a look. We don't intend to harm the unicorn, we just want to take a look."

Adam is also very curious about unicorns.

So the five of them followed the traces left by the unicorn and chased after them.

"Judging from the traces, the unicorn is not far ahead...huh?"

Cologne suddenly frowned:

"Did you hear anything?"

"There seems to be..."

"It's the sound of horse hooves."

Uther was still distinguishing, but Eugene had already given the answer. He frowned and said:

"Did that unicorn find the tribe?"

It's true that unicorns are social animals... but with the character of unicorns, it doesn't matter if they happen to attack a wizard on the way, but isn't it a bit strange to take the initiative to attack the enemy?

The sound of horse hooves was getting closer and closer, and the other party came to the door. The five of them just stood there and waited, but each of them clenched their wands and prepared for it.

Although they look holy and beautiful, and they are vegetarians, unicorns are not weak at all in combat, and they live in groups. There are almost no magical animals in nature that can feed on unicorns.

However, when they actually saw the approaching target, the five of them were surprised and disappointed.

That was not a unicorn, but a group of centaurs, about twenty... horses? Only? indivual?

"A horseman is a human from the waist up, and a horse from the waist down. The color of the human-shaped hair is the same as the horse-shaped hair. Like mermaids, they have the same intelligence as humans but voluntarily belong to beasts. They like to be close to nature and Observe the stars.”

Eugene explained to them in a low voice,

"No wonder there are so many herbivores living in this area. It's the centaurs who are protecting them."

"Is this the poacher you mentioned?"

The centaurs, each carrying a bow and arrow, formed a circle around the five people. The leader frowned and looked at his companions beside him:

"I only saw a group of foals who had just learned to walk."

After that, the centaur stepped in front of the five people:

"Human cubs, you have crossed the line. This is our territory!"

"Your territory? If I remember correctly, the Dark Forest belongs to Hogwarts!"

Although the students were not allowed to enter, just like those abandoned rooms, the Dark Forest still belonged to Hogwarts.

Uther did not give in. He looked up at the centaur who was half a body taller than him, and the centaur who was walking forward had no intention of stopping and was about to step on Uther.

The hoof was already raised in the air. As long as it fell, it would kick Uther over, but Uther still did not step back.

The leading centaur narrowed his eyes and did not step down:

"This is not the place for you to come, go back early."

The hoof brushed Uther's body and fell, and the centaur led the other centaur away in a sound of horse hooves.

"Wow! Uther, you are so amazing, you didn't lose to him in momentum just now!"

Seeing the centaurs go away, Cologne breathed a sigh of relief, and then rushed to Uther excitedly and hugged his shoulders.

"I read in the book that centaurs will not attack children."

Uther smiled slightly,

"And if he had continued to move forward just now, I would never regret it."

Although he said so, he was still nervous, and there was sweat in his palms now.

Adam nodded secretly. No matter what Uther prepared, his protective magic could protect Uther, and even if they didn't do it, the centaur's end would not be good.

You have to know that wizards generally look down on magical creatures. As long as the wizards can survive and report the magical creatures that actively attack wizards, they can basically say goodbye to this world, not to mention that Uther's father is the Minister of Magic of Egypt...
