Azkaban Academy's Field Trip
At this moment, the entire Forbidden Forest was thrown into chaos by Lester's great fire.
The Centaur had no time to worry about Lester and his companions; they were all frantically trying to put out the fire.
The wizards at Hogwarts all possess magic, so they certainly don't need to fear fire, but the Centaur tribe lives right in the Forbidden Forest.
These strong and able-bodied folks can run out of the Forbidden Forest, but the old, weak, sick, and disabled members of the tribe can't.
"Wizards, I will kill you all!" Bane's eyes were filled with rage, his horse-like face blackened by soot, but his killing intent was genuine.
Feseren's eyes were also filled with rage, and he kept muttering, "A killing star has descended upon the world, they will surely be punished, they will surely die a horrible death!"
No matter how angry the Centaur are, putting out the fire is the most important thing.
At this moment, not only the Centaur came out, but almost all the animals in the Forbidden Forest also came out, even the emotionless Acromantula swarmed out to extinguish the flames with their own bodies.
In an instant, the entire Forbidden Forest was thrown into chaos, and Lester, who was running around, kept receiving notifications.
[Ding! Gained +40 to Centaur Fear Points]
[Ding! You have gained 10 Fear Points from the Acromantula.]
[Ding! You have gained +20 Fear Points from the Erumpent]
Having just pulled out the Forbidden Forest, Lester snapped his fingers and summoned his House-elf, Kaka.
"Kaka, you need to get to the Ministry of Magic right now! The Centaur have gone mad and are attacking wizards; they've even started a huge fire in the Forbidden Forest!"
After Kaka left, Lester bent over, panting heavily. Malfoy, Harry, and Ron Weasley were also exhausted.
Hagrid looked at the Forbidden Forest billowing smoke, deeply saddened. "You four can go back to the castle later. I'm going to find Professor Dumbledore."
After saying that, Hagrid hurriedly ran towards the castle.
Hagrid knew all too well what kind of people the Ministry of Magic was; even if the Forbidden Forest were burned to the ground, these good-for-nothings might not even make it back.
By the time they get to put out the fire, it'll be too late, and the Forbidden Forest will be completely bald.
However, Hagrid underestimated the Ministry of Magic's efficiency this time.
If Hagrid, the Half-blood- Giant, were looking for Auror, he might have to wait a whole day and still not see a trace of the Auror.
But this time, it was Lester who signed up for the Auror, so the treatment was naturally different.
Lester said he was sending Kaka to the Ministry of Magic, but in reality, Kaka had already arrived in Azkaban no sooner had Hagrid left than Kaka arrived.
A moment later, a group of over thirty Auror, all with roguish looks and an air of malevolence, set off from Azkaban in proper Auror uniforms, looking smug and arrogant.
"Following a report from Mr. Lester Bide, a young wizard at Hogwarts, it was discovered that the Centaur tribe within the Hogwarts Forbidden Forest dared to attack wizards and maliciously set fire to the Forbidden Forest."
Hafiz, wand in hand, exuded righteous indignation. "We must uphold justice. The Forbidden Forest is Hogwarts property, and these Centaur dare to infringe upon the interests of wizards—their crime is unforgivable!"
"Effective immediately, the restrictions on spellcasting by Auror are lifted for this operation. All Auror present may use any spell to arrest Centaur."
"If Auror encounters resistance to arrest, he/she may, depending on the circumstances, take self-defense measures!"
"Now, let's move out to the Forbidden Forest of Hogwarts. Our objective: to arrest the entire Centaur tribe!"
Having said that, all the Auror, drew their wands and followed Hafiz into the fireplace leading to Hogwarts.
It was late at night, and apart from a few mischievous night owls, there was almost no sign of life.
Hagrid had just trudged into Hogwarts Castle when he was met by the castle caretaker, Filch.
"Hagrid," Filch's sharp voice cut Hagrid off, "It's midnight. Don't make any noise inside the castle."
Hagrid already disliked Filch, and now that something had happened in the Forbidden Forest, he was even more upset. "Filch, you stinking Squib, get out of my way! I have important business with Professor Dumbledore!"
"Who are you calling Squib?" Filch, like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, bristled with fur. Drawing his wand, Filch said coldly, "Hagrid, I'm not Squib! Apologize to me right now!"
"Filch, put your toys away." Hagrid said with disdain. Although he couldn't have a wand either, he could use it secretly, which was far better than this Squirrel who had Squib but couldn't use it.
Hagrid snapped, "Filch, get out of my way! I really need to inform Dumbledore Lester and the others have run into trouble in the Forbidden Forest!"
"What?!" Filch was shocked. Lester and Malfoy were his great benefactors, and Filch was immediately flustered.
"Hagrid, I hope you're not lying to me!" Filch stared intently at Hagrid, trying to find a flaw in his demeanor.
But Hagrid remained calm and didn't seem to be lying at all. Filch panicked and made way for Hagrid.
Just as Hagrid was about to run over, he heard the sound of orderly footsteps coming from inside the restaurant.
Then, a group of Auror dressed in black trench coats, led by Hafiz, appeared before Hagrid.
Hafiz strode confidently to Hagrid and said sternly, "Sir, are you a professor at Hogwarts? We've received a report that Centaur tribe in the Forbidden Forest has suddenly attacked young wizards and attempted to set the Forbidden Forest ablaze."
Hagrid was overjoyed. When did the Auror become so efficient at attendance?
"Yes, sir, I am the Hogwarts key keeper." Hagrid was so excited that he forgot for a moment that he was looking for Dumbledore.
At a glance, there were actually more than thirty Auror present this time, a large and frightening horde.
Although Hagrid always felt that something was off about this group of Auror, their demeanor lacked the uprightness of Auror and instead showed some of the sinister ruthlessness of dark wizards.
Even though he was wearing Auror uniform, he looked like a dark wizard infiltrating the Auror ranks.
"What am I thinking?" Hagrid shook his head, dismissing the unrealistic idea, and quickly recounted his experiences in the Forbidden Forest to Hafiz.
After saying that, Hagrid looked at Hafiz with anticipation.
"Commander Hafiz, if this fire in the Forbidden Forest isn't stopped in time, it will definitely spread throughout the Forbidden Forest. Let's go put out the fire now."
Hagrid was extremely anxious, Hagrid heart aching at the thought of those 'cute' little animals in the Forbidden Forest being burned to death in the flames.
After hearing Hagrid's words, Hafiz frowned, and Hagrid's heart skipped a beat for no reason.
In fact, the Auror, this violent organization, do not have a good reputation in the Wizarding World, even though textbooks say to go to the Auror if you have any problems.
But Hagrid knew his own family best; he knew all too well what the Auror were like.
"Commander Hafiz, I have many Unicorn feathers in my hut..." Hagrid was willing to risk everything to save the little darling in the Forbidden Forest.
To everyone's surprise, Hafiz frowned and reprimanded, "What do you take me for? We Auror don't charge fees!"
"What you just said was only your side of the story. To prevent you from lying to me, I must bring this gentleman with me."
As he spoke, Hafiz looked up at Filch and asked, "Sir, do you have a problem with this?"
Faced with the dense mass of Auror, Filch dared not object and quickly said, "Sir, I'm willing, I'm willing to go with you!"
"Actually, Hagrid is a clumsy guy, and I don't really believe what he says."
Hagrid glared at Filch, but under Hafiz's watchful eye, he didn't dare say anything more.
