Chapter 65: Burning the Forbidden Forest
"I don't want to go to him."
Snape lagged behind Jiang Li by half a step, and stepped on the shadow behind Jiang Li. He said slowly, "We are out of potion materials recently. Can you accompany me to the Forbidden Forest to get some?"
Hearing this, Jiang Li raised his eyebrows slightly and deliberately teased: "Really? I thought you wanted to stay with me for a while longer."
"..."
Snape suppressed his urge to be sarcastic, looked at Jiang Li and asked, "Has Miss Malfoy always been so confident?"
"No, this is not self-confidence, this is a fact." Jiang Li said proudly.
If she wants to please someone, she will never fail.
Thinking that everyone around Jiang Li seemed to like him, Snape didn't know how to refute her.
"Christmas is coming soon. Have you prepared gifts for your friends?"
Jiang Li casually changed the subject.
There were quite a lot of people who wanted to give gifts this year, so Jiang Li asked Mia to buy a lot of candies in advance.
As for some more important people, Jiang Li planned to personally make alchemical items and give them to them.
"Ready." Snape said calmly.
Then each person will only need a bottle of potion.
Jiang Li was about to tease him when he felt a surge of magical power and his smile instantly disappeared.
Noticing her change, Snape immediately took out his wand and pointed it vigilantly into the depths of the Forbidden Forest.
The depths of the forbidden forest were filled with the smell of decay and damp. A cold wind blew, making a rustling sound among the treetops. The moonlight filtered through the sparse clouds, passed through the leaves, and entangled itself around a dying unicorn.
"Bellatrix, I think I hear a strange noise."
"Idiot, no one comes here, hurry up and collect its blood."
Jiang Li and Snape used the Disillusionment Charm and quietly approached them.
Two men wrapped in black robes were collecting the unicorn's blood.
The man who was collecting blood always felt that there was a dangerous atmosphere in the air.
Snape saw clearly who the two people were through the moonlight and was about to stop Jiang Li.
A spell suddenly hit the man in black robe. The man instantly stiffened and fell straight down.
Bella immediately realized something was wrong and immediately used a Revealing Spell and a Killing Spell towards Jiang Li and Snape.
Jiang Li blocked the killing curse and his figure immediately appeared.
She blocked Snape behind her so that Bella couldn't see his face, and looked at Bella with cold eyes.
"Who are you? Why haven't I seen you in Hogwarts?" Bella looked at Jiang Li warily.
Jiang Li didn't say anything, but directly cursed Bella.
"Damn it!"
Bella blocked the evil curse in a panic and fired a green killing curse directly at Jiang Li, with madness in her eyes.
Jiang Li raised his magic wand and deflected the life-threatening weapon. The tree behind him fell down with a loud noise.
She fired the Imperius Curse at Bella.
Bella immediately grabbed her accomplice on the ground and made him stand in front of her.
The black-robed man's soul was immediately sucked out and his expression became dazed.
"Quick confinement."
Snape fired the restraints in Bella's direction.
"Damn it, why are there still rats hiding in the dark!"
Bella cursed with a distorted look, knowing that she could not complete her mission today.
She released a fierce fire spell directly in the direction of Jiang Li and Snape.
Evil flames gushed out from the wand, transforming into a huge fire snake that devoured its surroundings, and the flames instantly lit up the forbidden forest.
"Fire dragon entangled."
Jiang Li used the tip of his magic wand to emit a blue flame which turned into a fire dragon. It flew forward and began to entangle and bite the fire snake.
The two flames collided with each other, lighting up the entire night sky. Sparks hit the dead leaves, and everything around them burned rapidly, and the temperature became unbearable.
After casting the spell, Bella quickly fled without any hesitation.
The horrific flames instantly engulfed all living things around it, but were tightly entangled by another dragon-like flame and pulled into the air.
Many people saw a fire dragon and a fire snake entangled and biting each other in the sky above the Forbidden Forest. When the fire dragon flapped its wings, people outside the Forbidden Forest seemed to be able to feel the heat wave blowing towards them.
The foursome who were adventuring in the Forbidden Forest wearing invisibility cloaks were stunned when they saw this scene.
"Merlin's stinky socks! What is this!"
"Stop looking, run!!"
Sirius pulled the stunned James and ran over quickly, and the fire snake rushed towards them.
Lupin was a step slower and caught up with the two of them.
"Where's Peter? We have to go back and save Peter."
James didn't see Peter and wanted to go back to find him.
"Leave him alone." Sirius grabbed his hair and ran out, shouting, "He must have run away when he saw the fire!"
"It hurts, it hurts, stop pulling my hair! Wait, is that a slug? He's still in the fire."
James caught a glimpse of a figure in the flames from the corner of his eye and recognized it as Snape. He said loudly to Sirius, "We have to save him."
"Don't worry about him. You should take care of yourself first." Sirius said anxiously.
"Clear spring is like water."
A stream of clear water gushed out from the tip of Lupin's wand, and the moment it touched the flames, it instantly turned into water vapor.
"This is the Fiery Curse!" Sirius recognized the spell and grabbed James's clothes tightly to prevent him from passing. "This kind of fire can't be put out at all. We have to leave quickly. If we don't leave now, we will be the ones burned to death!"
"We can't leave."
Lupin stared blankly behind him. The other side was also surrounded by flames. They had nowhere to escape.
The invisibility cloaks on their heads were removed. Snape also saw the three people at this time, and his face instantly turned ugly.
Why are a few idiots here? Won’t they run away when they see danger?
Seeing that the fire snake was about to burn them, Snape shouted at these people.
"You all form a circle, thrust your wands downward into the ground, and cast the Ten Thousand Ending Spell."
When the three heard his words, they were still confused and didn't know how to use it.
"All curses come to an end."
Snape had already pointed his wand downwards, blocking the incoming flames.
But his magic power was too weak, and he could only lock the running flames nearby, but had no way to extinguish the flames.
Now the three of them understood what he meant, and they imitated him, pointing their wands downwards and chanting the spell.
"All curses are over!" X3
The necklace on Snape's hand began to become hot, and a soft white light formed a shield in front of him, instantly isolating him from the scorching heat.
The defensive bracelet made by Jiang Li was triggered.
Jiang Li stood in the center of the fire, looking at the flames rising into the sky, pointing his wand downwards, and slowly chanting a spell.
"All curses come to an end."
A huge magical power poured into the ground, and the fire dragon instantly tore the fire snake into pieces and disappeared into the night.
The Forbidden Forest returned to darkness, and everything around it was scorched.
There was a scorched earth under Jiang Li's feet, and the dying unicorn licked her fingers.
Her eyes softened slightly, and she took out a high-level healing potion from the bracelet and poured it into its mouth.
The hideous wound on the unicorn's neck healed quickly. Although it was still very weak, it was no longer in danger of death.
Jiang Li stroked the unicorn's head and casually plucked off a tuft of hair. He then picked up the bottle of unicorn blood and said to the weak unicorn, "I saved you, so you can't curse me."
The unicorn cried weakly twice and rubbed its head against her palm.
"Merlin's beard! It's actually a unicorn."
Jiang Li looked towards the voice and saw James with his face burned black.
Behind him stood Sirius and Lupin, also staring at the unicorn in her hand.
Jiang Li looked at the three of them, smiled slightly and said, "Gryffindor will be deducted 30 points."
