From Hogwarts to Strixhaven

Chapter 60 A Stroll in the Forbidden Forest

With the tactics formulated by Ivy, Slytherin undoubtedly won a big victory. The score between the two teams finally stopped at 310:50, and of the 50 points won by the Ravenclaw team, 40 points came from free throws.

Thanks to the overly large body of the goalkeeper Troll No. 6, several free throws of Ravenclaw were unsuccessful, and all were blocked by him awkwardly with his body.

In the end, all the little eagles living in the tower hung their heads and returned to the castle in frustration. The little snakes of Slytherin celebrated their well-deserved victory, and everyone was looking forward to the second game with Gryffindor next year.

Ivy did not participate in the celebration held in the common room, but went to the forbidden forest alone, ready to get some experience points from some "ferocious and evil" magical animals.

Perhaps because they had plundered the octopus spider tribe too hard before, Ivy found that they deliberately shrunk the range of activities of the tribe and went deeper into the forest.

The Forbidden Forest is not a place suitable for riding a broomstick, and Ivy did not spend experience points to choose the flying spell in the spell table, so it is not certain that you can return to the castle on time before dark by just walking back and forth. Therefore, Ivy is going to get a means of transportation like more than a hundred years ago.

Hippogriffs and Thestrals are both suitable choices, but Ivy still prefers Hippogriffs because the Thestrals' bony backs are not comfortable to sit on. Although Ivy can use the cushion spell, hiding your body in warm feathers is obviously the true meaning of finding a means of transportation.

The specialty of the Strixhewen Apprentice adds three 0-level cantrips to Ivy's spell table, namely Fire Arrow, Freeze Ray, and Magic Trick. It also allows Ivy to choose one of the first-level spells of the bard and the warlock, and Ivy can cast this first-level spell without using a spell slot.

Ivy chose the Animal Talk spell, which is a ritual spell. During the duration of the spell, the caster will be able to understand the language of animals and communicate with them. And if the charm is high enough, you can even persuade them to help a little.

The hippogriff is undoubtedly a magical animal. Since it is an animal, Ivy's spell will definitely work. Coupled with his 18 points of charm, isn't it easy to catch a small means of transportation?

This is exactly the case. Ivy followed the footprints on the snow and encountered a small group of hippogriffs in a small clearing in the forest. These proud guys are obviously well taken care of. Their feathers are shiny, and there are no signs of damage to their sharp claws and curved beaks. Obviously, someone is providing them with food regularly.

Seeing Ivy's figure coming out from behind the tree, the hippogriffs in the clearing in the forest immediately changed their posture alertly, from lying on their side to standing upright, and looked at Ivy's whole body with sparkling eyes, as if confirming his threat.

"Relax. Nice to meet you." Ivy showed his hands to show that he had no ill intentions, but his eyes had already begun to choose the next means of transportation.

The colors of the hippogriff are very rich, from deep black to pure white, from low-key brown to fancy pink, it has all the colors you can imagine. More than a hundred years ago, Ivy once raised an agate-colored hippogriff, which looked noble and mysterious, with gorgeous feathers.

"You are not Hagrid! You are not welcome here!" The hippogriff standing in the front made a loud cry, and the magical power of magic allowed Ivy to understand each other's language.

Ivy lowered his head and bowed slightly, which was considered a bow: "I used to have many friends like you, flying in the woods together, using wings to draw ripples in the black lake, and dancing on the spire of the castle..."

"Get out of here! Rude boy!" The hippogriff standing in the front did not move at all, and it seemed that it did not think that Ivy's bow was a bow.

"Buckbeak. Don't be so mean to him." The cry sounded gentle and beautiful. A meteorite-colored hippogriff used its wings to push away its companion, whom it called Buckbeak, and came to Ivy, bowing straight and straight.

"Hello, my name is Spotted." You can tell that this name was given by Hagrid. Listen to the names of his pets, "Tooth", "Fluffy", and now a meteorite-colored hippogriff is named "Spotted". What's next? "Tall and thin"? "Short and fat"?

If a hippogriff bows to you, it means you can go over and touch it.

Ivy pointed her wand at a branch on the ground, turned it into a brush, and held it in her hand and leaned over.

"Oh - so comfortable." The cry was vibrating with pleasure, because Ivy rubbed the feathers on Spotted's chin with the brush, which was their little weakness, and Ivy knew it clearly.

"Thank you for speaking for me, Spotted." Ivy reached out and pinched off an empty feather tube. Spotted sighed comfortably. As long as the right medicine is used, animals are much easier to control than people.

"It's no big deal. You look very beautiful." Spotted nudged Ivy's arm with his head, hoping that he could lower the brush a little more.

"Wait! Can you understand what we are saying?" Spotted raised his head belatedly. The hippogriffs that had already lay down again stood up again and chirped around Ivy.

"Of course, of course. Everyone can understand. You don't have to talk together, just come one by one. Oh, my name is Ivy." Ivy combed Spot's hair while dealing with the chattering hippogriffs.

Finally, Ivy relied on animal conversation to successfully sit on Spot's back, but the hippogriffs who had never communicated so smoothly with humans also decided to follow and provide flying companion services for Ivy and Spot.

"Even Hagrid sometimes gets us wrong." A brown hippogriff complained in the air, "He always forgets that I don't like to eat dead mice. Although I am really good at killing them."

"Maybe when I see Hagrid next time, I will help you tell him." Ivy nodded to show that she understood, and at the same time thought about how to lead these arrogant guys to the deepest part of the Forbidden Forest, where the eight-eyed giant spiders appeared.

"No need to wait for the next time! Now!" The brown hippogriff suddenly became excited and dived into the jungle, followed by Spot carrying Ivy.

So Ivy suddenly dropped from the sky with a group of hippogriffs and appeared in front of Hagrid.

No mistake, one post, one content, one book, one bar!

Forgot that they have eagle heads, and even their eyesight is as good as an eagle.

Ivy secretly called it a mistake, and at the same time, he started thinking about ways to save himself from being locked up.

"Ivy!" Hagrid looked very surprised. This was the first time Hagrid spoke to him since Ivy read the word "Philosopher's Stone" in his cabin.

"Long time no see, Hagrid." Ivy had to poke her head out from the spotted feathers and greeted Hagrid reluctantly, "What are you busy with recently?"

"Preparing the Christmas tree for the Christmas dinner..." Ivy then saw the half-chopped fir tree in front of Hagrid and the axe in his hand.
