The sickly, iron-fisted beauty in Harry Potter

176 Hibiscus Dracula

The gray wolf lowered its head slightly, seemingly agreeing with what Dolly had said.

Dolly considered whether to impose more restrictions on it, but ultimately she gave up on the idea.

After all, the connection with this gray wolf was more like a gentleman's agreement.

Moreover, although Dolly has tamed it, she can't actually offer it much more help now. The only thing she can do to help it is probably to feed and water it.

So whether the human and the wolf can get along harmoniously remains to be seen.

With Snow by her side, Dolly began to revise her plans.

While using skis instead of walking is a good method, the amount of supplies that can be carried is limited.

This made Dolly even more eager for the Unseen Stretch Spell; she was determined to learn it once she got back.

After much thought, Dolly decided to build a small sled and have Snow pull it.

Although Snow only has one wolf, it seems to be a bit bigger than yesterday and weighs more than Dolly, so it shouldn't be difficult for him to pull Dolly up.

Moreover, by turning it into a sled, Dolly could carry more wild boar meat, ensuring that she and the wolf wouldn't have to worry about food for the next two or three days.

Do it when you think of it.

Dolly continued to use magic to cut the wood and split it in the middle. Then she placed the curved half down and the flat half on top, finally securing it with a simple mortise and tenon joint.

If Dolly didn't have magic at this stage and had to use tools, she felt she wouldn't be able to finish it in ten days or half a month.

Now Dolly can deliberately make a smaller opening, then use Transfiguration to enlarge it, and finally bite the wood together.

Finally, the transformation was terminated, and the wood was tightly bound together and could no longer be separated. How efficient is that!

Of course, Dolly knew that with just this structure, or rather, just the structure of the wood itself, it would be difficult to withstand violent vibrations.

But she had no other choice now; she couldn't just start smelting iron and making nails right now.

Fortunately, she still has magic, so she can use magic to reinforce the structure when needed, which should be enough to handle most situations.

By the time Dolly finished doing all this, another day had passed.

Dolly sighed; the person looking for her hadn't arrived yet.

But thinking about it, it's not surprising. It's clearly a frozen wasteland, hundreds or even thousands of kilometers away from England. Even if Dumbledore wanted to find her, it wouldn't be easy.

Dolly wasn't one to wait, so she decided to save herself.

Moreover, if Dumbledore and the others were to come looking for her, Dolly's small area of ​​activity would be no distance to them at all.

Afterwards, Dolly cooked a big meal for herself and Snow, and then prepared to rest.

Before that, however, she had already set up a small shelter for Snow outside the sanctuary, reinforced its defenses, and installed a wooden door.

At the same time, Snow was taught that if he didn't want to go out, he didn't have to, but if he wanted to go out, he could just push open the door.

Of course, Dolly couldn't possibly sleep with Snow.

Dolly and Snow had also reinforced the stone wall as a defense, leaving only a breathing hole.

Despite Snow’s seemingly humane and approachable demeanor, Dolly is ultimately responsible for her own safety; perhaps Snow is a fox at heart?

Dolly had a hard time sleeping that night, waking up several times.

This is actually how it should be when sleeping in the snow and ice. Dolly is easily awakened if the temperature of the campfire changes.

Looking back now, the reason I slept so well last night was probably a small perk after my magic power was increased.

This also made Dolly realize how lively the forest was at night.

On average, various animals would visit Dolly every ten minutes, most of them with ill intentions.

However, most of them were scared off by Snow's growls. Occasionally, a few stubborn ones would be chased out by Snow, who would usually chase them for more than ten minutes before returning.

Dolly had wanted to help, but Snow now seemed terrifyingly powerful.

All she heard were the screams of wild beasts, while Snow fought on with increasing ferocity, seemingly enjoying himself.

Dolly felt relieved and only took the time to cast two healing spells on Snow, which seemed to excite Snow even more.

When Dolly woke up the next morning, there were several more carcasses of prey outside the door.

Most of the animals were small, with only one large wild boar, smaller than Snow.

So Dolly simply said, "It's all yours. Once we've eaten our fill, we'll leave today."

Longing seemed to understand, and immediately began to feast.

Dolly started eating, then quickly washed herself with hot snow water, and finally tied the wild boar meat to the sled as much as possible. Then she used her shapeshifting ability to create a simple tether and put it on Snow.

"If you don't like it, you can leave anytime, I won't stop you."

As Dolly said this, Snow lowered his head and began to pull.

The first two steps were a bit strenuous, but once the sled reached a place with thick snow, it became as smooth as a boat on a river.

Seeing Snow's effortless movements, Dolly breathed a sigh of relief; this little brother really wasn't a waste of her time.

But where should we go?

Looking up, all around was a vast expanse of snow.

Dolly isn't in dire straits yet, otherwise she would definitely make some big news.

For example, setting a large pile of wood on fire and starting a wildfire, even if you end up in jail afterwards, it doesn't matter.

But it's clearly not that time yet, so Dolly needs to save herself first.

"By the way, Snow, do you know anyone similar to me?"

Dolly asked a question, and Snow stopped, looked at Dolly with a human touch, and then nodded.

This brought a hint of joy to Dolly's face.

Modern humans are not like humans of the past. Their footprints have spread to almost every corner of the world, and many animals seem to have realized that humans are not to be trifled with, and that humans have weapons like guns.

So it's quite normal that Snow saw humans.

"Then take me to a place with lots of people like me, the more the better, and I promise you won't be in any danger."

Dolly pondered that if they encountered a wizard, then Dolly's little brother Snow would be utterly insignificant.

In the magical world, there are wizards who ride dragons.

In the real world, Dolly only needs to find someone, explain her situation in English (the international language), and then give a perfunctory reply.

Once you're sure you're safe, use magic to erase the Muggles' memories, and then find a way to repay them with money.

So no matter who she met, Dolly was saved.

Snow stirred again, and this time it seemed he finally had a target.

Before long, Dolly understood that Snow was actually running towards the tall, snow-capped mountains in the distance.

This puzzled Dolly. Shouldn't they run towards the plains or the river?

Dolly couldn't help but ask, "Are you sure there are humans like me there?"

Snow stopped and nodded.

Dolly looked at Snow, then at the surroundings, and finally chose to believe the wolf.

After all, Dolly has forgotten all her geography knowledge, and if we follow her advice, who knows where things will go?

If all else fails, she can create a small avalanche near the snow-capped mountains to attract people.

So Dolly and Snow set off again, heading towards the towering snow-capped mountains in the distance.

Dolly didn't know the name of the snow-capped mountain, but it did have its own name, which was the Alps that everyone was familiar with.

However, this is already at the end of the mountain range, located in southeastern France.

Meanwhile, a girl who was an acquaintance of Dolly's, but whom she didn't know, along with her sister and parents, were on vacation there.

Fleur Delacour, the beautiful girl who was supposed to appear in the semifinals.

She has one-quarter Veela blood, inheriting her grandmother's Veela lineage, and has waist-length silver hair and shimmering blue eyes.

Furong is a proud girl who always wants to prove her strength, rather than relying on her beauty and bloodline to rise to the top. This is probably the reason why she participated in the top three competition.

But that's all for the future. Right now, she's just a young girl skiing in the Alps with her family.

There is a wizard's private ski resort here, and actually there is a huge Muggle ski resort not far away.

Even the Wizard Ski Resort was built by Muggle workers, but they forgot about it after they finished building it.

Wizards often take advantage of Muggle labor, but this time they actually paid for it; to be precise, it was a small collaboration between the French Ministry of Magic and the French government.

The relationship between the local Ministry of Magic and the local government is actually a very interesting topic.

The British principle is a notification system, meaning that if there is any major news in the magical world, the British Ministry of Magic will notify the British government, but that is all.

The United States' principle is complete isolation, meaning that the US government is unaware of the existence of the US Ministry of Magic, and all communication between the two sides is prohibited.

In France, the two sides may even cooperate, but they still strictly adhere to the Wizarding Secrecy Act. After the exchange, all Muggles except those qualified to know about the magical world will have their memories erased.

"elder sister."

Gabrielle, Hibiscus's younger sister, sat in the cable car, swinging her legs happily and showing great interest in everything around her.

This was her first time in such a place, and her first time experiencing Muggle technology, so she excitedly asked, "Are we riding in the Mountain God's chariot?"

"Only a mountain god could have such a... chariot that flies in the sky without horses, right?"

Furong smiled, looking at her adorable younger sister, and really wanted to explain to her.

Unfortunately, Furong's family is a pure-blooded family.

Although the Fleur family doesn't have such deep prejudices against Muggles, their status as a pure-blood family means that they ultimately only have a superficial understanding of Muggle technology.

Fortunately, this wasn't Furong's first visit, and she had heard some things from others.

So she began to explain, saying, "Gabrielle, these Muggle magics."

"Their magic is different from ours; they cannot use magic, or even use magic on their own."

"Instead, it requires Muggles to work together to make a lot of props, then connect them to something called electricity, and finally they can activate these spells."
