Chapter 159: The Grim Reaper Who Will Never Be Absent

At night, the Forbidden Forest was dark and silent.

With the help of tracking potions, Evan could sense Peter Pettigrew ahead, slow but moving forward.

The winding path was still strewn with his bloodstains.

"Fluorescent flicker!" There was a crisp, subtle chirp, and a faint glow from the end of Aven's wand.

He hurried forward for about ten minutes, and there was no sound in his ears except the snapping of branches and the rustling of leaves. All around him, the ancient trees that had grown over the centuries were becoming denser and denser, and the stars above him were no longer visible, and if it weren't for the help of the tracking potion, Evan would have thought he had lost the other party.

In the ancient Forbidden Forest, Aven's wand glimmered alone in the endless darkness, and he noticed that Peter Pettigrew had strayed from the path.

After crossing a mossy tree stump, he could hear the sound of running water.

Apparently, there was a stream somewhere nearby.

By the faint light at the end of his wand, Evan saw Peter Pettigrew disappear behind a towering oak tree. He clenched his wand and hurried after him. Although he was in a hurry, he couldn't go very fast, and the ground was full of roots and stumps, blocking the way, and it was almost impossible to see in the dark light.

Aven's clothes were caught by the low branches and vines of the nearby trees, and he noticed that the ground near him was sloping downward, even though the trees were still as dense as before.

Suddenly, he stopped abruptly, holding his wand firmly on his chest.

He could feel that something other than himself and Peter Pettigrew was approaching rapidly, swishing over the fallen leaves near him with a strange clicking sound.

Evan had to be careful, he had heard Hagrid say that there were many dangerous magical animals in the Forbidden Forest.

He focused his magic on his wand, squinted at his eyes, and cautiously took a few steps forward.

Peter Pettigrew had stopped and hid behind the oak tree in front of him.

As Evan approached the oak tree, under the faint glow of his wand, he suddenly saw the shadow of a large, terrifying monster appear diagonally on the ground. Before he could even turn around, a long, furry thing grabbed him by the waist and left him hanging face down in the air.

Evan struggled, waving his wand!

He heard a click again, from the same monster that had grabbed him, and he was being dragged into the dark bushes

At the moment when Evan is attacked, Peter Pettigrew is shivering behind a giant oak tree.

He gasped heavily, his severed right hand wrapped in a robe, and he was almost dying of severe injuries all over his body.

Boundless darkness hung over him, and he felt like he was about to die, fear that he had never felt before.

He didn't understand why things had come to this point, and his plot had been seamless. But after meeting the twelve-year-old boy in Lupin's office, things began to take a turn for the worse, and he was even forced to use the magic that the Dark Lord had taught him, the forbidden black magic, again.

The last time he used this magic, he paid for it with a finger.

And this time, he paid a palm, and the strong backlash and explosion brought by the black magic made him not even have the strength to move now.

Click, click, click

A strange voice was heard, and Peter Pettigrew struggled to raise his head.

The frightened little eyes bulged outward, as if he saw something crawling down from the tree.

Click, click, click

The strange voice was getting closer, and the thing was right above his head.

The unknown monster seemed to be attracted by the smell of blood on his body.

Peter Pettigrew tried to escape, but his body was weak and weak, and he fell backwards heavily, his face covered in sweat and panic with fear written vividly.

He didn't know what the monster was approaching above his head, but he knew that he would be greeted with death, the price he deserved.

Peter Pettigrew doesn't remember how many times he's had such nightmares, he's been waiting for this day ever since he betrayed James and Lily to Voldemort.

Now, death has finally come to him!

He remembered that when he was a child, every night before going to bed, his mother would read to him the fairy tale "The Story of the Poet Bean".

He still remembers the story that impressed him the most, the story about the "legend of the three brothers". Peter has almost forgotten the content of the story, but there is a sentence in it that he will always remember: Death may be late, but it will never be absent.

If death is destined for him, Peter Pettigrew only hopes that the process is not too painful.

Aven's head hung in mid-air, and he turned sideways and stretched out his wand.

There was a red glow from the end of the wand, and the monster behind him was knocked out of the way, and Evan fell to the ground with a heavy blow.

He hurriedly got up, and only then did he see the guy who had just caught him.

The monster had eight bizarre, hairy legs, and above its head were a pair of large, shiny black stings.

Behind it, there was one such monster, and they were staring at him fiercely with a lot of terrifying black eyes.

The two monsters looked like spiders, but instead of the little spiders that were hurrying through the leaves, each one was the size of a horse pulling a cart, with eight eyes and eight legs, and a black, hairy behemoth.

It's an eight-eyed spider!!

It was terrible, and Evan suddenly realized what he had encountered, and Peter Pettigrew fled in a panic, leading them into the territory of the Eight-Eyed Spider.

According to Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, the Eight-Eyed Spider is a large, ferocious spider with eight eyes, inhabiting dense jungles and covered in thick black hair, and adult spiders can reach fifteen feet with their legs stretched out to the sides.

They also secrete venom, are terrifying carnivores, and eat almost anything.

Evan knew that there were eight-eyed spiders in the Forbidden Forest, and they were all descendants of the Aragog that Hagrid had raised, and Hagrid even went so far as to find a mate for his furry friend to reproduce. He also remembered that in the book "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them", it was said that the eight-eyed giant spider can lay up to 100 eggs at a time.

Several eggs are laid several times a year, lasting for a full fifty years, and the eight-eyed giant spiders in the Forbidden Forest can reach a terrifying number!

Evan clenched his wand, and the two guys on the other side didn't immediately pounce.

Maybe they're watching for Aven's weaknesses, maybe they're sensing danger, maybe they're waiting for their companions, maybe

In short, Evan and the two giant eight-eyed giant spiders confronted each other strangely.

In the next second, Peter Pettigrew's miserable, feeble cry came from behind the oak tree beside Aven, and he was attacked as well! )
