The Alchemist of Harry Potter

Chapter 1034 The Horseman
The explosion before Professor Trelawney left really shocked all the teachers and students at Hogwarts, and also refreshed everyone's previous impression of the old liar.

No one thought that all of this is actually caused by someone behind the scenes, and the actual operation is not difficult.

Professor Trelawney herself is an experienced liar. She has decades of accomplishments in playing tricks and fooling others. To use Albert's euphemistic words, she is a master of language.

With the help of Blessed Elixir and a complete script, it is not surprising that the supernormal performance is not surprising.

The last successful case was Harry Potter.

For this reason, Albert was also surprised to find that he had triggered a task called "Highlight Moment".

It's a pity that the task is not easy to complete, especially since Albert is about to graduate from Hogwarts, he doesn't have much time to complete the task, and more can only depend on luck.Although Albert has always claimed that his luck is very good, he himself is not willing to pin things on luck.

What made Albert more puzzled was that Potter didn't trigger a similar task when he confronted Fudge hard during the trial.

After this incident, the prophecy left by Professor Trelawney before leaving was once again dug out from the dustbin of history.

In addition to the prediction that Potter was suspended by Toad not long ago, the second prediction that she was expelled by Toad also came true.

The next prophecy: Headmaster Dumbledore will hire an inhuman divination professor to serve at Hogwarts.

This prophecy will be verified in the next few days, and it will not make you wait too long. What if the third prophecy also comes true?
Will the rest of the prophecies gradually come true?

The prophecy left by Trelawney was like a slap in the face, directly knocking Umbridge unconscious.

Umbridge never thought that he would go to great lengths to drive Trelawney away and prepare to insert "his own" into Hogwarts, but Dumbledore had already found a new professor of divination.

Did the other party already expect it?
What annoyed Umbridge even more was that Dumbledore didn't tell her who the new professor of divination was, but said mysteriously that he would find out in a few days, and even confidently promised that if the new professor didn't arrive within three days , the Ministry of Magic can appoint a new professor of divination on its own.

The smile on Dumbledore's face gave Umbridge a bad feeling that she didn't want the old crook's prophecy to come true anyway, not just because of Trelawney's follow-up prophecy, but because it meant She drives away a professor who can actually predict the future.

Everyone will question not only the actions of Minister of Magic Fudge, but also her ability to serve as a senior investigator.

Umbridge really guessed right, Albert really dug a hole with his backhand for her to jump into.

After sending the distraught Umbridge away, Dumbledore couldn't help shaking his head. He came to the window and fell into a brief silence while looking in the direction of the Forbidden Forest.

To be honest, the old man did overlook some things at first, and if it wasn't for Albert's reminder, he might even have made a bad mistake.

The centaurs hate wizards very much.

Moreover, the sense of superiority of most wizards is always easy to touch the nerves of the centaur.

However, for an elderly person who is always busy and often needs to think about a lot of things, forgetting something is sometimes very helpless.

Fortunately he was reminded.

When Dumbledore found the only centaur Firenze who was willing to come to Hogwarts as a divination professor, he actually reminded Firenze privately and invited him to return to school with him, but Firenze refused However, the centaur still insisted on returning to his colony and telling everyone the news, instead of going directly to Hogwarts with Dumbledore.

This is undoubtedly a very bad thing.

Therefore, when Dumbledore came back from the woods, he asked Hagrid to meet Firenze in the Forbidden Forest.

To be honest, it's not really a wise choice, but Dumbledore's options are running out.

If another official from the Ministry of Magic was involved, it would only make things worse, and it might even lead to Trelawney being kicked out completely.

Dumbledore never thought of letting Trelawney leave Hogwarts, especially after the other party made a prophecy about Voldemort, her situation became very dangerous.

Her current departure obviously has something to do with someone.

In fact, Dumbledore would rather Trelawney remain unknown and sheltered at Hogwarts than to be in the limelight like she is now.

However, the incident had already happened, and there was no point in saying anything else. He believed that the other party would ensure her safety, just as Trelawney said before leaving, she would return to school to teach next semester.

Hagrid had heard about what happened yesterday, and knew that Trelawney had been expelled by the woman named Umbridge, but he really never thought that Dumbledore would hire the centaur Firenze as the school's teacher. Professor of Divination.

Also, the fact that Trelawney had been fired made Hagrid uneasy.

Although Hagrid was confident in the Thestrals class, he was still a little worried that he would be kicked out.It wasn't just Umbridge reviewing his lessons not long ago, but Albert's warning.

The reminders given by Albert will basically come true, which means that he may also be driven away by Umbridge one day, which is undoubtedly not good news.

After Dumbledore left, Hagrid seemed to remember something, took out Albert's letter from the cabinet, read it carefully, threw the parchment into the fireplace and burned it, and then went to the Forbidden City with a bow and arrow. Lin meets Firenze.

"Hopefully it's not that bad."

Hagrid plunged into the Forbidden Forest, walking briskly toward the group of centaurs.

Before Hagrid could get close to the group of centaurs, he was shocked to see half of the group of centaurs kicking around something.

There was no doubt that what Dumbledore feared had happened.

"Stop, stop, what are you doing." Hagrid stepped forward quickly, trying to stop the atrocity.

"Get away from Hagrid, this is a matter within our group." Bane glared angrily at Hagrid who pushed him away forcibly.

Hagrid lifted the fallen centaur from the ground. Firenze looked miserable, with horseshoe marks all over his body.

"Ferenze betrayed us and became a slave of mankind."

Instead of attacking Hagrid, the centaurs glared at him disapprovingly.

"Betrayal? Just because Firenze planned to help Dumbledore?" Hagrid stared back at the stubborn centaurs in front of him dissatisfied.

"Our customs are different from yours, and our laws are different from yours," said a gray centaur with deep wrinkles on his face. "Hagrid, don't meddle in the private affairs of the centaurs."

"I only saw one murder," said Hagrid aloud.

"Firenze tried to sell our knowledge and secrets to humans," Margery said coldly, stepping out from the crowd of horses, standing in front of Hagrid, "this is a disgrace to us centaurs, we This has to be stopped from happening.”

"Your knowledge is not as valuable as you think. I can't watch you murder my friend with my own eyes. If Dumbledore knows that you plan to kill his professor, I think he will be very unhappy." Hagrid had no choice but to Moving out of Dumbledore, he knew that only Dumbledore could frighten the group of centaurs in front of him.

However, this did not produce the expected effect, but instead made the irritable horseman even more angry.

"Dumbledore is in a little trouble now, and it will take half a year at most to solve the problem." Hagrid said loudly, "He just invited Firenze to come to Hogwarts as a professor, which is a position worthy of everyone's respect."

"Firenze, if you insist on leaving us, then we will regard you as a traitor, and you will be expelled from the community, and you will never step into the forest, otherwise we will kill you." Margaret said calmly Looking at Firenze, he knew that Dumbledore was in trouble, but the centaurs were unwilling to get involved in conflicts and wars among wizards, and Firenze's actions would undoubtedly bring trouble to the entire group.

"Sorry Margaret, I don't regret my decision." Firenze turned and walked outside the Forbidden Forest.

"Hagrid, you have lost the friendship of the centaurs." Margaret looked at Hagrid's leaving back and said coldly, "From now on, don't come to our Forbidden Forest, you are no longer welcome here .”

"This is not your forest."

"Just let them go?"

Bane, with a black body and a beard, pawed the ground anxiously, "We know what he hid in the Forbidden Forest."

Margery didn't answer Bain, turned and left.

As the leader of the centaurs, Margaret was calmer than other centaurs, and he didn't want to have any unpleasant conflicts with Dumbledore if possible.

After all, the Forbidden Forest is near Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. As their neighbors, they know that the old man is a wizard worthy of the respect of the centaur. Maybe this is why Firenze chose to help Dumbledore.

……

On the other side, Firenze limped to his old friend and said softly, "Thank you Hagrid, you did me a great favor."

"Your injuries look a bit bad!" Hagrid noticed the horseshoe prints on Firenze's body, and he was a little worried about Firenze's injuries. Being kicked by a group of centaur circles is not a fun thing. Hagrid wondered if he didn't Show up in time and Firenze will be kicked to death by the other centaurs.

"Don't worry, I can heal my wounds."

On the way back to Hogwarts, Firenze picked some herbs and planned to treat his injuries. The centaurs are very good at healing magic, and their healing magic is not the same as that of wizards.

It's a pity that it's winter now, and I haven't been able to find many useful herbs. There are reserves in the community, but it's impossible for Firenze to go back.

"Hagrid, I need some white twigs."

Firenze was lying on his knees near Hagrid's pumpkin patch, processing the herbs he'd picked along the way.

"You're lucky. Someone gave me a lot of fresh meat a while ago, and I'll get it for you." Hagrid turned and walked into the hunting lodge to get the fresh white meat that Albert had given him to heal his injuries a while ago.

"Oh, it looks like I'm lucky." Firenze took a large amount of fresh white meat from Hagrid.

"Albert gave it to me. I was always surprised that he gave me so much. Now I can probably guess the reason." Hagrid helped to smash the white meat and mixed it into the herbs prepared by Firenze. , "I dare say he knew you would come to Hogwarts for a long time, no wonder he asked me to pay attention to you, lest you be killed by other centaurs."

"Albert?"

Firenze whispered the name, but he didn't know the other person.

"Albert is a genius, a very powerful genius, and he is good at divination. He has helped me a lot and has a very good personality. You will definitely like him." Hagrid introduced himself to Firenze. A friend, while helping him apply herbs to the wound.

Firenze picked up some white fresh twigs and whispered the centaur's healing spell, as if a green light swept along the white fresh twigs from the wound covered with herbs.Firenze reached out to wipe off the herbs on it, and the part that was injured by the horse's hoof healed a lot.

If Albert was here, he would probably be able to see the reason at a glance if he saw Firenze using the white fresh branch as a prop for using the healing spell.

Baixian can actually be used as a wand core. If it is combined with willow and unicorn horns, it can completely create a powerful and extreme healing wand.

As for why Albert knew, it was naturally because he made one himself and gave it to Mrs. McGregor to please his future mother-in-law.

"That Albert can predict the future?" Firenze was a little surprised.

"Yes, he can do divination, and he is very powerful." Hagrid was not stingy about boasting, "Many people say that Albert is much more powerful than Dumbledore when he was young, maybe you know him, I remember Albert I used to go into the woods a lot."

"I probably know who he is, I remember hearing Ronan mention it before." Firenze recalled something that happened a few years ago.

One night, a young foal broke into the forest alone in search of other lost foals. Later, the centaur found many corpses of acromantia in the woods. Even the centaur still felt very sorry for those big spiders. alert.

Of course, if Hagrid hadn't mentioned it, Firenze would probably have forgotten it.

"You stay here to heal your injuries first. I'll tell Dumbledore that you're here. I think he'll help you arrange everything." Hagrid was going to find Dumbledore, and put Firenze's tell each other.

"No need for Hagrid, I'm already here." Dumbledore appeared near the hunting lodge, he looked at the horseshoe prints on Firenze's body, and sighed silently in his heart, "Thank you Firenze, and thank you Hagrid."

"You're welcome, this is what I should do." Hagrid said almost patting his chest.

"I also have to thank Albert for reminding me. I think he is looking forward to seeing you. I believe you will get along well!" Dumbledore said to Firenze.

Firenze was a little puzzled and didn't understand the meaning of Dumbledore's words.

"Albert is a prophet, I think he would be very happy to share knowledge about prophecy with you." Dumbledore explained to Firenze with a smile.He felt that Albert reminded himself that he probably wanted something from the centaur.

As for what you want, it's not hard to guess.Albert was very interested in centaur knowledge.

"I'm looking forward to meeting him." Firenze said softly, he was somewhat curious about the young fortune-teller.
