Hogwarts: I'm Harry's older cousin

Chapter 98, Section 96: The Bald Pony

However, Ferenze's words were like talking to a brick wall; his two centaur companions completely ignored him.

Seeing that Ferenze remained "stubborn" and insisted on continuing to help other creatures, the two said no more, turned around and left quickly, disappearing into the depths of the dense forest.

"I'm sorry, I hope you won't hate us for this. Bane and Ronan aren't bad people at heart."

Ferenc said apologetically to Dalido.

Dudley simply shook his head slightly, focusing intently on the unicorn's wound, his hands never stopping as he continuously adjusted bottle after bottle of potion.

"I know the character of you centaurs."

Out of respect for Ferencze, Dali will not hold it against the other party.

"Bear with it, it'll hurt a little," Dudley whispered to the unicorn.

Next, carefully drip the prepared medicine onto its wound.

Like cold water being poured into boiling oil, an intense reaction occurred instantly; the unicorn's wound corroded rapidly, as if it had been doused with sulfuric acid.

However, the black mist that was wrapped around it was dissipating at a speed visible to the naked eye.

However, the process was not very comfortable.

The unicorn, in pain, began to struggle involuntarily.

Helpless, Dudley could only stretch out his two hands and place them on the unicorn's body, pressing gently until it quieted down.

Soon, the black mist at the wound finally dissipated, and the unicorn gradually stopped struggling. However, the place where it was originally injured had been corroded into a huge, terrifying hole.

It may look scary, but it's actually just a superficial injury.

For wizards, as long as they are not dead, nor cursed, and the injury is not irreversible due to magic, it is all just a superficial wound. Even if your hand is chopped off and you drink a few bottles of magic potion, it will grow back in no time.

Of course, saying it will happen in a minute is an exaggeration; it will still take some time.

He took out two bottles of magic potions.

The unicorn drank the whole bottle.

White Dictamnus Flavoring (Oral Use)

The other bottle was carefully poured onto the unicorn's wound.

White Fresh Flavoring (External Use)

At the site of the wound, a layer of granulation tissue visibly grew, scabbed over, and healed, eventually gradually recovering and growing new skin.

The results were outstanding.

However, unlike other places with light downy hair, the newly grown skin is smooth.

The potion is truly amazing, and its effects are immediate.

At this moment, the unicorn gently nuzzled Dudley with its head and licked his palm. If its mane hadn't been plucked bald, its relationship with Dudley would actually be quite good.

After all, no magical creature could resist the food made by Dudley.

After feeding the unicorn some of his homemade food, and seeing that it was much more energetic, Daddy patted its rump, signaling it to stand up and walk a few steps.

Although there was still a slight tremor, overall there was no major problem.

No, there's nothing seriously wrong with my health.

Overall, it's a bit hard to describe.

Yes, I mean image.

Well, originally it was just that the mane was a bit bald, but it was still a handsome unicorn.

Now, due to the treatment of his injuries, a large patch of hair on his abdomen has disappeared.

Those who know about it understand the symptoms left by the injury, but those who don't might mistake it for alopecia areata, which is quite unsightly.

It's good enough that it survived; worrying about its appearance is unnecessary, and hair grows back in no time anyway.

Seeing that the unicorn's injuries had stabilized, Ferenze bid farewell to Dali and returned to his tribe.

Dudley first collected some of the silver blood on the ground. Unicorn blood has healing and life-extending effects, and in common folk legends, it can even bring the dead back to life.

There's definitely no chance of bringing someone back to life; even phoenix tears don't have that effect. And because it's not a voluntary offering, while unicorn blood can extend lifespan, it contains a curse. Once consumed, one can only live like a walking corpse.

This blood can be used to make cursed potions, and the effects are quite strong.

Then Dali examined the bald unicorn again, and after confirming that there was nothing wrong with it, he took the little dragon and sent the unicorn to its clan.

The unicorn herds live deeper in the Forbidden Forest, where the danger level is naturally not low. No adult wizard without some skill would choose to go there at night.

But Dudley's combination of a unicorn and a dragon was enough to make him a top predator even in the Forbidden Forest, so there was no problem, and he was quickly sent back.

Dudley advised the little dragon to stay as close as possible to the unicorn colony, since it was not yet fully grown and would be relatively safer near the unicorns.

After giving Xiaolong his instructions, Dali left the Forbidden Forest.

To be honest, he wanted to ride not only dragons, but also unicorns.

Unfortunately, the unicorn's carrying capacity is not as good as the little dragon's.

Therefore, his idea was destined to remain unfulfilled and could not be put into practice.

Unless he can lose weight

Dudley, back at Hogwarts Castle, begins to review the battle.

Summarizing the experience of each battle, analyzing problems and shortcomings, and constantly improving oneself is also an important part of being a spellcaster.

Dudley already knew the cloaked man's identity.

Although he stopped regarding the contents of his memory as sacred texts the moment a tail grew on his butt, some of the information was still quite useful.

In the dead of night, deep in the forbidden forest, he drank unicorn blood.

There are three key points, and there can only be one person.

there is only one truth.

The possession object of a guy without a nose!

The direct confrontation also gave Dali a preliminary understanding of his opponent's strength.

The most immediate impression is that it's strong. Extremely strong.

Even if it's just a wisp of a remnant soul possessing him, it still has terrifying power, unlike the wretched thing he remembered.

The ability to bring an adult unicorn to the brink of death is something that most adult wizards cannot match.

Like the phoenix, the unicorn is only XXXX in danger level. Both are powerful magical creatures that are not very aggressive towards wizards. However, a unicorn in a berserk state is not much weaker than the chimera or the scorpion-tailed manta ray, which are also legendary creatures with a danger level of 5X.

Its horn is no mere decoration; even dragons must avoid its sharp edge.

This also made Dali realize its shortcomings; its long-range attack methods were relatively limited and needed improvement.

We need to find a way to launch some long-range attacks.

If all else fails, we should add some attack methods.

The first thing that came to Dudley's mind was firearms.

Theoretically speaking, if a flashlight can be used, then a firearm can certainly be used as well.

Or how about we get a Magnum?

That thing is pretty lethal; Dudley loved it when playing Resident Evil.

"Ding!"

As he was pondering this, Dali suddenly heard the system notification sound that had been offline for a long time.

"Achievement Quest: First Encounter with the Mysterious Man, Obtained"
