"Mr. Hagrid, you are not an employee of our Ministry of Magic, and according to the rules, you are not qualified to participate in this rescue."

Hafiz said sternly, "However, given the urgency of the situation, you can participate in this firefighting effort, but there's a condition: you are not allowed to interfere with our Auror law enforcement process."

Hagrid nodded quickly, "Yes, sir, I certainly won't hold you back."

Hafiz nodded in satisfaction, then waved his hand and began to act!

The prisoners of Azkaban immediately transformed into fighting units of three and began to enter the Forbidden Forest.

"The Aguamenti!"

In an instant, countless springs of water gushed from the Auror ' wands, bringing the raging fire on the outskirts of the Forbidden Forest under control.

These Auror were powerful and well-trained; mere flames couldn't withstand them for more than a few seconds.

Hagrid was overjoyed, believing the Forbidden Forest was saved. Meanwhile, at Lester's instigation, the prisoners of Azkaban began their real operation.

As soon as a safe area was cleared, Lester went to Hafiz's side. "Hafiz, that big oaf is my friend. Don't let him get hurt."

"Your mission this time is simple: kill as Centaur as possible from the Forbidden Forest. They witnessed me use the Killing Curse!"

"Not only that, there's also a blood-sucking monster in the Forbidden Forest. He's extremely dangerous. If you spot him, send a signal immediately, and we'll kill him at all costs!"

Hafiz nodded solemnly, then began to gather his men and formally issue orders.

A few seconds later, all the Auror grinned and waved their wands, casting Fireproofing Charm on themselves before heading straight into the Forbidden Forest into the flames.

This scene left Hagrid stunned. "Sir, what are you doing?"

Hafiz explained expressionlessly, "There are many precious Fantastic Beasts in the Forbidden Forest, and these people need to be rescued urgently."

"And Centaur raise evil creatures must also be arrested and brought to justice."

Hagrid nodded, seemingly understanding but not quite.

At this moment, within the Forbidden Forest, countless Fantastic Beasts abandoned their past hatreds and devoted themselves entirely to fighting the fire.

The Centaur tribe, in particular, mobilized its entire force, frantically trying to extinguish the fire.

In the fire, the Centaur continuously fetched water from a stream near their village and poured it into the fire.

"Wizards, those damned wizards!" Bane's eyes were filled with rage, completely unaware that it was all because of his impulsiveness.

The chieftain of the Centaur tribe has also joined the firefighting efforts and is directing the tribe's relocation.

Beside the chieftain was Feseren, the youngest and most intelligent Centaur in the Centaur tribe.

The chieftain listened to Feseren's account with trembling hands, his face revealing undisguised ugliness and regret.

"You mean, Bane wanted to attack the young wizards with his bow and arrows, so the wizards set this fire?"

"Yes, Patriarch, not only that, those young wizards also said they would go to the Ministry of Magic to seek justice for them."

The clan chief's face was extremely grim, and he asked in a hoarse voice, "Have those young wizards been caught yet?"

"No!" Feseren shook his head and said, "They ran out of the Forbidden Forest, and because Hagrid was there, we didn't make a move."

"Madness!!!"

The Centaur chieftain was now furious with these useless descendants. How dare they attack a human wizard, and not only that, they let him go! It was like releasing a tiger back into the mountains!

"Feseren, you're the smartest man in the tribe. You're in charge of putting out the fire now. I'm going to find Dumbledore!"

The Centaur chieftain's face turned green; he didn't even have time to deal with the fire and hurriedly went to Dumbledore to plead for mercy.

Feseren was puzzled and asked, "Chief, isn't it just the Ministry of Magic? We Centaur can understand the stars and predict the future, so why are we so afraid of wizards?"

Although Feseren was very intelligent, he simply couldn't understand why his people were so afraid of human wizards.

Human wizards have visited the Forbidden Forest over the years, and he felt that although these wizards' abilities were all quite unusual, there was no need to be so afraid.

Seeing that even the wisest member of the tribe, Feseren, couldn't understand, the Centaur chieftain sighed, somewhat helpless.

Since accepting Dumbledore's protection, this new generation of Centaur has been too well protected and has no idea of the horrors of the Ministry of Magic.

For wizards, the Ministry of Magic at most exploits them, and when they are dissatisfied, they can even curse the officials of the Ministry of Magic.

But for these Magical Creatures, the Ministry of Magic is synonymous with death; once the Ministry of Magic intervenes, no Magical Creatures can survive.

"Well, anyway, you shouldn't have any more conflicts with human wizards in the future!"

The Centaur elder sighed and ran towards Hogwarts along the still unburnt path.

Feseren couldn't understand, but he still took over the command and directed the Centaur to put out the fire.

Although there were many flammable materials in the Forbidden Forest, this was, after all, the Wizarding World, and Lester hadn't set off Fiendfyre.

After half an hour of hard work, the fire deep in the Forbidden Forest was finally brought under control.

The Centaur also got a short rest.

Just as they were leaning against the tree, listlessly recovering their strength, several footsteps suddenly came from the Forbidden Forest.

Centaur Bane the first to become alert. Dragging his weary body, he looked up and saw three wizards in brown trench coats striding towards them.

"Help! A wizard is here!" Bane shouted immediately, alert to the situation.

At the same time, the wizard's face turned cold as he fired a red spell into the sky, illuminating the entire night.

Upon hearing that a wizard had arrived, the Centaur gritted their teeth in hatred, even the little foal, which was less than five feet tall, glared fiercely at Sang Biao and his men.

Feseren, his horse hooves pounding the ground, blocked the Sang Biao and his two companions, coldly saying, "Wizards, get out of here! You're not welcome here!"

"Yes, get out of the Forbidden Forest right now, you arsonists!"

"Drive them out! They are the scum of nature!"

The Centaur tribe was in a state of high spirits, and all the young Centaur swarmed around them, angrily rebuking Sang Biao and his two companions.

However, within the tribe, many elderly Centaur immediately showed expressions of fear upon seeing the conspicuous Auror attire of Sang Biao and his companions.

The little pony, puzzled, asked, "Grandma, what are you afraid of? There are only three of them, and they're so short."

Centaur, his face filled with fear, whispered, "Child, don't speak. If things go wrong, remember, run east and find Dumbledore!"

The foals were puzzled, but they still obediently nodded.
