Harry potter galactic empire

"Why did it take so long?" Evel's calm voice sounded from the corner in the darkness, and she shook off her invisibility cloak.

"Where's Professor Xiclea?" she asked.

"Huh... I hope you're okay..." Lin Mo just wanted to take a breath but suddenly became nervous when he thought of something. He pulled out his wand and pointed it at Ivel. Only the girl's eyes were particularly clear on the dark fourth floor corridor platform:

"What happened when we boarded the Wizard Express coming to school and stopped at the station on Prison Lock Planet?"

"You fainted." Ivel was not on guard and answered Lin Mo's question expressionlessly.

"How long? How long have I been unconscious?" Lin Mo asked.

"Eleven seconds."

"That's right...eleven seconds...you told me at that time, sorry." Lin Mo finally relaxed a little. He put away his wand and said to the girl: "Sorry, I have to make sure that you are not replaced by magic or potion.

, I told Xiklea about you being here, and she tried to lock me in the office, did you see her? Did she enter the trap door? "

Ivel shook his head, with surprise in his eyes: "Professor Xicklea locked you in the office?"

"I don't know why, maybe she also wants to steal the Sorcerer's Stone... Now I'm afraid we can't trust anyone, even Dumbledore, unless we can be sure that he is not being pretended, just like the question I just asked you."

Lin Mo himself couldn't figure out his thoughts, and Xikelea's actions really disrupted his expectations.

"Quillo, has he come out? What time is it now?" he asked.

Ivel lowered his head and glanced at her communication device: "No one has been here at 4:43 and 25 seconds in the morning."

Four forty, that is to say, nearly five hours have passed since Harry and Hermione separated...

Lin Mo looked at the silent entrance of the rotunda and remained silent.

What's going on...

I should be lying comfortably in the lounge this night, waiting for Dumbledore to rescue Harry in the middle of the night, and then everything will be fine, but why has Dumbledore still not shown up, and the professors who have disappeared and are not in the office?

Where did they all go? Why did Professor Xikelea imprison him in the office? Where did she go when she didn't come to the trap door?

Is there really another exit?

Then what's the point of him and Ivel staying here?

But Lin Mo could still feel that the Magic Stone was still down there. As soon as he approached the entrance of the rotunda, he felt a strong urge to go down and take a look. If it didn't come from the Magic Stone, what else could it be?

But that meant Harry had lasted nearly five hours.

He still hasn't given the Philosopher's Stone to Quirrell...

Lin Mo's forehead was sweating slightly. He didn't even know if this could be called a good thing, even if Quirrell hadn't succeeded yet.

"Are we going down?" Ivel asked beside him.

Do you want to go down... Lin Mo looked at the cold light flashing on the barrel of the sting gun under the invisibility cloak, thinking about Harry who was in trouble. He felt that his neck was as stiff as if it was petrified. Do you want to go down?

After a few breaths, he finally persisted and shook his head slightly.

After all, that was the last option, or it shouldn't have been an option.

It's useless. Those are Quirrell and the Dark Lord, not low-level springtails with arrogant teeth, nor are they Prefect Flint. Even Prefect Flint, he can't confront him head-on, let alone Quirrell. Think about it just now

How did he end up being held there defenseless in Sciclerea's office? Sciclerea didn't even need a wand to subdue him.

And Quirrell will not be weaker than Sicklea, at least not too much weaker, because he brings the Dark Lord with him.

However, if you think about it from another perspective...

Based on the familiarity between him and Harry over the past year, if he was trapped under the trap door for several hours with his life or death unknown, and Quirrell might steal the Philosopher's Stone at any time, what would Harry choose?

He must have rushed in without thinking...

But Lin Mo is not Harry after all.

"I also want to be so young..." He sighed softly in his heart, and finally said to Ivel: "We will stay here and do what we can, even until dawn."

He couldn't finish.

The sky suddenly brightened behind the door.

Lin Mo suddenly looked at the door at the entrance of the rotunda. A layer of colorful light was pouring out from the gap, like soap bubbles expanding from behind the door, quickly spreading to all sides. Layers of light touched the walls.

The large swathes of flower shadows in the dyeing vat dye the originally plain bricks and stones in the darkness with patterns.

But Evel next to her didn't seem to notice anything, and there was no bright reflection in her black eyes.

It was like she had never felt the temptation of the Philosopher's Stone...

Oops……

Lin Mo suddenly realized something, but he had no time to escape.

The colorful light swallowed him and everything around him, and continued to sweep towards the distance. If he could open his eyes and see in the dazzling light, he would find that the light swept through every part of Hogwarts like a tide.

Every corner, every portrait is like every sleeping and dreaming student, passing by Hermione with red eyes who can't sleep in the treatment room, passing by the administrator Filch who is trapped in the next classroom, and the administrator who has not been able to recover from the petrification spell.

Mrs. Norris in recovery.

Colorful waves of light washed over the entire castle repeatedly, but no one noticed those colorful lights, except Lin Mo. When those lights slowly faded and returned behind the door, even the brilliance in the crack of the door gradually disappeared.

, his vision finally returned to normal.

Everything looked the same as before, except for him.

"I want to go in and need your help."

Ivel's eyes widened, and a hint of unnoticeable worry flashed through his eyes: "Why did you suddenly change your mind?"

"I was affected by magic." Lin Moyan said concisely:

"Just now, some magic spread from under the trap door and affected me and changed my mind. I have to go in and find the magic stone. There is no other way. I know exactly what I have to do.

.”

"Can……"

"You can't stop me." Lin Mo leaned over and picked up the invisibility cloak and the sniper rifle Stinger: "And time is running out."

The light just swept past, and the urge he had been suppressing to see the magic stone suddenly expanded like the light. It was ten times, a hundred times or even countless times stronger than it was at the trap door just now. He had almost no ability to resist.

He was defeated and could only completely succumb to the impulse in his heart, or the temptation of the magic stone.

All reason, all cowardice, and all thoughts were completely wiped out, leaving only the ultimate goal of going down and taking a look.

But he didn't lose himself.

Rather than being hit by the soul-stealing curse, Lin Mo's current feeling was more like the state described in the book after taking a powerful spiritual elixir. He knew that he had to follow the current feeling and go down to find the stone. Only

This is the only right thing to do. Even if it is really a trap, he has to go on because he has no choice.

He couldn't resist the effect of that magic.

It's like he can't resist the many obstacles faced by Sicklea.

No matter who cast the colorful light that only he could see just now, the other party obviously didn't give him a choice.

There is no room for hesitation.

Lin Mo opened the door and walked into the rotunda holding the long and narrow bee stinger.
