Hogwarts behind-the-scenes big boss
Chapter 19 The Slytherin Dungeon
Dumbledore turned his head and spoke to a teacher with greasy black hair, a hooked nose, and sallow skin.
Moriarty knew that he was Severus Snape. Although he could not hear the content of their conversation, he had something to do with Slytherin House.
In just one dinner, Moriarty found out clearly that Slytherin has been stronger than ever in recent years, and winning the Academy Cup for three consecutive years is really more than just talk.
There are almost no outstanding students like William and Leon in other houses who are almost as good as adult wizards. That is to say, Gryffindor has a Bill Weasley who can compare.
However, there are a few people in the third and fourth grades who should not be underestimated.
Moriarty looked at his senior Gemma who was talking to Lilith, as well as Charlie Weasley next to Percy, and Tonks at the Hufflepuff table, just to interrupt Dumbledore's speech.
That girl.
Moriarty knew that Dumbledore had an Order of the Phoenix, and both Charlie and Tonks were members of the Order after graduation.
So Moriarty believes that Leon must first find out what Bill is doing. It is impossible for Dumbledore to give a Slytherin something to do that Bill has not done.
In fact, it was not Leon that caught Moriarty's attention, but Bill.
I thought Hogwarts was calm in 1988, but now it seems that there is an undercurrent.
A plan gradually took shape, and Moriarty remained calm on the surface. When he ate the last piece of pudding, all the food on the table disappeared.
Dumbledore stood up and said a few things to note, and led everyone in singing the school song.
Facts have proved that not everyone can sing the school song as unscrupulously as Fred Weasley and George Weasley. The students could not open their voices and hummed along.
Only Dumbledore's voice was the loudest. Suddenly he heard another loud voice. Dumbledore looked towards the Slytherin table. Moriarty was singing the school song to an ancient tune with his chest raised and his head raised.
, sounds exciting.
When the first little wizard started singing along with Moriarty, he shuddered, but soon his eyes lit up and his face was filled with a sacrosanct expression.
The students all sang along, and their pores stretched out, and they joined in this chorus like warriors about to go to war.
After singing the school song, Dumbledore's applause lasted for a long time.
"Music is more charming than anything we do here!" Dumbledore seemed to want to sing it again impatiently, "Mr. Moriarty, which melody do you sing it to?"
"The war song created by wizards in the Middle Ages in response to the goblin war has no name, sir." Seeing Dumbledore's somewhat disappointed expression, Moriarty smiled faintly: "But I can write down the score and send it to you.
."
"That's perfect," Dumbledore nodded: "It's bedtime now. Let's go back to the dormitory."
There was a loud roar in the auditorium, and the students all stood up and began to return to the dormitory with their prefects.
The first-year Gryffindor little lion made a noisy sound, while the first-year Slytherin little snake kept quiet and elegant, preparing to follow Leon to the Slytherin common room.
"Prefect William used to take us back," Gemma said to Moriarty before leaving: "This year, Prefect Leon volunteered to take on this responsibility. I think he is a little bit crazy, he is too
I want to show off."
"Hmph," Lilith snorted disdainfully from behind Moriarty: "For nearly half a century, the Mincham family has been suppressed by other purebloods.
Because Minister Harold Mincham was a tough minister, he wanted to curb the rise of the Dark Lord, but failed, so the Mincham family suffered revenge from the Dark Lord.
Now Leon has become the only hope for their family, but I am not optimistic about him. What political achievements can be expected from a guy who can only show off his power in front of girls? Maybe he will challenge the giant in order to prove himself? Ha,
Stop teasing me."
After hearing Leon's background, Moriarty felt that Leon was more controllable.
After they walked for a while, the floating ladder moved under their feet, and the little snakes quickly walked to another section of the floating ladder.
Leon reminded: "Be careful of these magic stairs. They not only float in mid-air, but also move and rotate. If you can't remember all the stairs accurately, you will be sent to an unknown place."
Moriarty thought of his staff, and with the intention of giving it a try, he lightly tapped the ladder with the end of the staff. After a loud "click", all the ladders stopped moving.
Jericho tentatively jumped onto the floating ladder that had been moved away before, and jumped back again.
"So cool Mr. Moriarty, how did you do that?"
"I think this is the reason why the ladder cannot resist the Slytherin staff." Moriarty said thoughtfully. It seems that the staff can also reveal other secrets in Hogwarts?
The little snakes surrounded Moriarty, all wanting to see the staff up close. The stairs of Hogwarts have been spinning and moving every day for centuries, and now Moriarty actually made them stop!
Lilith said with regret: "I should have brought back the Sword of Gryffindor - maybe I could have brought it back if I had persisted."
Leon felt that he was being left out, his expression changed again and again, and finally he said with a smile: "Mr. Moriarty did a good job, but it's a pity that I am not a professor, otherwise I will definitely add ten points to the college. Now we can
Gone?"
The fixed floating ladder saved the little snakes a lot of time. After passing the last section of the floating ladder, Moriarty did not forget to resume the movement of the floating ladder.
The little snakes soon came to a basement-like room with a thick stone wall at the end.
"There is a stone door hidden inside the stone wall. Behind the stone door is our common room."
A strange smile appeared on Leon's face, "Of course this is a unified name among the four houses, but internally we prefer to call it Slytherin Dungeon.
It is located at the bottom of the lake, and we can often see octopuses in the lake through the windows, and if you are lucky, you may also see mermaids.”
Leon took a few steps towards the stone wall and said without looking back: "Glory!"
The stone wall clicked, the stone door turned, and the whole view of the common room was revealed in front of the little snakes.
The walls are made of black marble, the turquoise ceiling and chandeliers emit sparkling light, the ceiling is carved with crystal, and the floor is covered with snow-white carpets.
The sofas and chairs in the room were placed around a large fireplace, as well as exquisite mantelpieces, luxurious furniture, scattered murals and candlesticks, which attracted the attention of the little snakes.
"Never forget the password, lose the password, give the password away! Because no Slytherin will be friends with a fool who does any of the above stupid things."
Leon's sternness brought the freshmen back from their thoughts. He glanced at the freshmen and said without any emotion.
"Maybe you were excited because of the sorting ceremony, but Slytherin doesn't need excitement. What it needs is calmness, concentration, and ambition."
The little snakes listened to Leon's words solemnly, and even Lilith didn't make a sound. She was a Slytherin after all.
Leon watched the reactions of the little snakes with satisfaction, but he was merciless: "From the moment you enter Slytherin, you should abandon your childhood fantasies, you are no longer children.
Many people say that a Slytherin will do whatever it takes to achieve his goal. I think this is not wrong and nothing to be ashamed of.
We are not those reckless lions. Only when we have a clear purpose can we find a shortcut to success. Only when we find the target can we kill with one blow like a poisonous snake.
There are too many famous wizards in history who came from Slytherin House, such as Merlin - I think you should have heard of it - if not, remember it in your mind!
Although students from other houses rarely mention this, I can definitely tell you that Merlin studied in Slytherin House."
Jericho raised his hand: "I'm sorry, Prefect Leon, but according to people's research, Merlin was active earlier than the Big Four of Hogwarts was born. How could Merlin enter Hogwarts?"
"Very good, you are Jericho Blanche from the United States, right? Learn to ask questions!" Leon looked like a venomous snake that bites people, "Why don't you ask Mr. Moriarty about this question?"
Where is sir? Perhaps he who inherited Slytherin Castle has first-hand information."
Moriarty saw a sinister smile flash across Leon's face and did not argue with him. Instead, he calmly picked up the staff and waved it towards the stone wall. A line of dark green ancient writing appeared on the wall.
.
"What is this?" Lilith asked: "What words? And... what does it mean?"
"Ancient runes, meaning time." Moriarty snapped his fingers, and with a "click" sound, the dark green text turned into English.
Moriarty said to Jericho: "There is no doubt that Merlin did study in Slytherin, but what you said about the incompatibility in time is also unquestionable.
The mismatch in time once attracted the attention of Ancestor Salazar, who investigated Merlin's origin, but found nothing.
I found the last record about Merlin from his diary, and there were only two words on it, time."
"Does it mean that Merlin traveled through time?" Jericho looked like he had seen an American science fiction blockbuster.
Moriarty patted him on the shoulder: "I don't think so, but it does involve time magic."
"Time magic?" Lilith asked curiously.
Seeing Moriarty become the protagonist again, Leon felt that the authority he had established no longer existed, and interrupted the conversation of the little snakes: "Why don't you go to bed?"
Within ten minutes, the little snakes found their own dormitory, with four people per room. This made Jericho not very satisfied, but when he found out that his roommate was Moriarty, he was no longer sleepy at all.
Not only Jericho, but also several little snakes were not sleeping. Everyone gathered around Moriarty and sat down on the sofa in the common room.
"In fact, I came to Hogwarts because of Mr. Moriarty," Jericho touched his hair and smiled sheepishly: "Dad heard that descendants of Slytherin will come to Hogwarts this year.
So you let me come despite all the objections."
"In that case, I promise you won't be disappointed." Moriarty accepted Jericho's friendship.
Lilith came over: "If Leon knew that you were from the Blanche family, he would definitely regret his shady attitude towards you just now."
"Oh, there's nothing to say," Jericho said, not proud at all: "The wizards of the Blanche family are only a little more talented at riding broomsticks than other wizards. I can't wait to take flying lessons.
Already."
Lilith's eyes flashed: "Mr. Moriarty is also a flying genius, right?"
"I have only tried flying on a broom once, and it was very exciting." Moriarty admitted, but when it comes to flying, Salazar is an expert, and the second spell he left behind is an improved version of the flying spell.
.
The few of them chatted for a while, then said good night to each other and went back to the dormitory to sleep.
