Harry Potter and the Temple of Tales

The scene inside the cave gave Louis a strange feeling.

Although he had seen the expression in words and images, when he actually saw it, he was still shocked by the gloomy atmosphere inside.

This was a huge black lake, so big that he couldn't even see the scenery on the other side.

A misty green light radiated from the center of the distant lake; it was reflected on the lake, which was like a pool of stagnant water. Although this green light and the light emitted by the two wands did not reach as far as Louis expected, there was nothing other than them that could

Breaking the velvety darkness around me. Somehow, the darkness here is denser than elsewhere.

Generally speaking, there is no water in the cave, and even if there is, it is only a small pool, but such a large lake is full of inferi at the bottom.

Such a huge project was completed by Voldemort alone.

The house elf Kreacher had been waiting by the lake for a long time. When he saw them coming in, he hurried over and said something to Dumbledore and Sirius.

Dumbledore frowned, and he slowly walked to the lake to observe something, and he moved his wand in the air.

"Kreacher said there was a small island in the middle of the lake, and Regulus was dragged in there." Sirius explained to Harry and the others, with a slightly irritated tone, "Now Dumbledore is thinking about how to get there.

"

"But why don't we try the Flying Curse, Professor." Harry asked, "Since it's a corpse, it should also be affected by the Flying Curse."

Harry's words somewhat reminded Louis. As a bug spell in the wizarding world, the Flying Curse can summon even living people.

However, Harry probably didn't know the Flying Curse during the summer vacation of his third year, so why did he mention this?

"Good idea, Harry." Dumbledore turned around and looked at him with a smile, "I think you can try it."

"Well, okay." Harry pulled out his wand and actually did as Dumbledore said. It was too late for Louis to stop him.

"Come Regulus!"

With an explosion-like sound, a large milky-white hand stretched out from the lake, but then fell back into the lake with a series of water splashes.

"What is that?" Harry was a little shocked.

"This should be Voldemort's protective mechanism to prevent spells like the Flying Curse." Dumbledore said, "However, Harry, your ability to use the Flying Curse makes me a little impressed."

"Well, Sirius taught me some skills that are necessary for life."

"Oh? It seems that this godfather is quite competent."

Dumbledore gave Sirius a meaningful look. This impetuous man always loved and protected Harry.

"Okay, since the flying spell is useless, why don't we just go into the lake?" Sirius waved his hand impatiently. If it weren't for Regulus, he wouldn't have lingered here for so long.

"Go directly into the lake? Unless you want to die." Nicoléme shook his head, "Judging from the situation just now, this lake is full of inferi. You can't even take a step out. If you don't believe me, try it.

"

Sirius stopped talking and shut his mouth obediently.

They kept walking around the lake on a path that stuck to the wall. They didn't know how long they walked, but the surrounding scenery remained unchanged, with rugged rocks on one side and endless expanse on the other.

"Aha." Dumbledore suddenly stopped and bumped into Louis behind him. He fell straight towards the lake. Fortunately, he was caught by Sirius behind him.

"I'm so sorry, Louis, I should have reminded you." Dumbledore said in an apologetic tone, "Now, please stand back, I should have found a way."

Lewis knew that Dumbledore might have found the ship, but how did he do it?

The entire lake was calm and there was no sign of a wooden boat at all.

But Dumbledore moved his hands in the air as if he were grabbing something invisible. Louis noticed that half of his feet were already on the edge of the rock. He made a fist with his left hand and tapped his fist gently with his wand in his right hand.

Louis seemed to feel a wave of magic power. He turned his head and looked at Harry, but he was looking ahead blankly, not knowing what was happening.

"Magic comes from the heart, kid." Nick noticed the strangeness of Louis and came over to point it out, "You can feel it too, which means you are qualified for the induction of advanced magic."

"Now you just need to use your heart to trace the origin of magic. Don't look with your eyes. My child, you have to use your heart."

Louis did as the alchemy master said. He closed his eyes and felt everything around him.

He felt that everything around him became empty. Without the restrictions of the rock wall, he seemed to be on a huge lake.

"Now, concentrate on finding the direction based on the feeling of magic power fluctuations you just obtained." Nick's voice sounded from his heart.

Louis walked in that direction, and in his heart, a magic light source slowly appeared, and then became bigger and more prosperous.

Suddenly he opened his eyes, and he could vaguely see that there seemed to be a thin transparent line on Dumbledore's hand, connecting it to a certain location in the lake.

Then Dumbledore pulled back suddenly, and the thin line gradually turned into a physical iron chain. He tapped the iron chain with his wand, and the chain began to shrink, and what was being dragged was a small wooden boat.

.

To outsiders, the chain appeared out of thin air in Dumbledore's hands, but Louis was surprised when he saw this scene following Nick Flamel's guidance.

I don't know when my sense of magic became so powerful. Perhaps it was after receiving the inheritance?

"Yes, it's this boat!" Kreacher, who was standing aside, suddenly became excited. "Kreacher was ferrying over with the young master and the Dark Lord."

"Are you sure Kreacher?" Sirius couldn't believe it, using such a small boat to cross a lake full of inferi.

"Kreacher is right, Sirius, this is another Voldemort trick." Dumbledore said, "He thinks that no one can find this ship, unless it is a very powerful wizard."

"But he doesn't know that magic will always leave some traces, and some of them will be very obvious."

Dumbledore's disappointed expression was like facing a student who had devoted many years of hard work to nothing.

"But, Professor, will this prevent the Inferi in the lake from attacking?" Harry was still in shock when Dumbledore conjured a boat.

"Probably not, Harry. They will mistake us for Voldemort. Just let me pull the boat over, which is already half the battle." Dumbledore said.

Harry was still very worried. Not only Harry, but also Louis and Sirius were afraid of a sudden attack by the Inferi in the lake, which would really be a waste.

"Of course, we have to be prepared. We will definitely come into contact with the Inferi when we get here." Nicoléme walked to Dumbledore and looked at the small boat. "However, Albus and I

What are you still worried about?"

Yes, one is the greatest alchemist alive today, the other is the most powerful wizard in the wizarding world, and there is an Auror from the Ministry of Magic and a house elf. If this lineup can't protect the two,

I'm afraid the underage children are really going to make a fool of themselves.

"Come on, let's get on the boat and go to the center to find Regulus and go home."
