Hogwarts behind-the-scenes big boss

On his first night back at school, Moriarty was lying in bed.

"Didi~ issued a mission: Bring the snake home. The host is required to open the secret room before June 1st and bring the basilisk back to Slytherin Castle!

Reward, 5000 points. Mission failed, the host will be wiped out!"

Moriarty sat up suddenly, completely sleepless, and the system was not sending out messages sooner or later, but it happened to issue a task at this juncture - starting from June 1st, Hogwarts exams would begin, which meant that he only had five months.

time!

Excluding the ultimate mission, this mission is the most difficult mission Moriarty has ever encountered, and the reward is naturally richer.

"Bring the snake home..." Moriarty closed his eyes and thought about how to bring a twenty-foot-long basilisk back to the castle!

"Space magic circle!" Moriarty remembered the way he and Lockhart entered Slytherin Castle. There is no doubt that among the magic he knows so far, only space magic circle can achieve ultra-long distance transmission.

"If it is to build a space magic circle, I cannot complete it by myself. Moriarty got out of bed, sat down at the table, and began to write a letter: "I need help, I need materials..."

The sound of "rustling" writing came from the dormitory. Moriarty wrote five letters and handed one of the letters, addressed to the elf Ingo, to Poseidon.

"Be sure to return it to the castle before tonight." Moriarty warned, only his own Snow Owl can return to the castle.

Looking at the remaining four letters, Moriarty shook his head and could only send them out through the owl in the school.

It was getting light the next day, and Moriarty got up and headed to the west tower, where the school's owlhouse was located on the top floor.

On the spiral staircase leading to the top of the tower, Moriarty meets an unexpected person, Defense Against the Dark Arts professor Randy Cullen.

The two of them passed each other without saying anything. Due to the narrowness of the stairs, Moriarty was sure he smelled the smell of blood.

It would be great if I could see the letter sent by Professor Randy.

Moriarty thought as he sent his letter.

The four owls were chirping, as if they were wondering why this student in school would send a letter to another student in school?

After walking out of the west tower, Moriarty went to the Room of Requirement. His Christmas gift to Tonks was a quick magic wand that can automatically pop the wand into the wizard's hand, suitable for Auror battles.

After fighting with Tonks in the Room of Requirement for an hour, Moriarty came to the Great Hall for breakfast.

A large group of owls flew in. Jericho, Marcus, and Tonks received a letter at the same time. After opening the letter and looking at it for a few times, their faces changed slightly, and they left the food on the table and hurriedly left.

Poseidon sent two packages to Moriarty. These were the precious materials sent by Ingo according to Moriarty's instructions and Salazar's research records on the space magic circle.

Moriarty put the package into the system space, finished his breakfast leisurely, then got up and left. He walked through a dim corridor with text flashing on the wall and came to the girls' bathroom on the second floor.

There were already three people waiting for him here. As soon as Tonks saw Moriarty, he asked with concern: "What is it that prevents you from talking to me in the Room of Requirement? You have to come to this damn place!"

"Nymph," Moriarty patted Tonks' hand and said with a smile, "I have my reasons."

Tonks looked around and sighed: "I really don't know why you chose this place? Well, I admit that this place is quiet and remote, but we girls don't come to this bathroom. There is a crying ghost here."

"Ghosts don't scare me, and the bathroom doesn't matter, but why is it for girls?" Jericho stepped forward and shrugged: "If I hadn't seen that the letter was signed by Mr. Moriarty, I would have thought Which pervert invited me to come over and spy on you!"

Marcus made no comment. He stood at the door of the bathroom like a guard. He had a premonition that his test was about to come.

Moriarty led them into the bathroom. He searched in front of the sinks until he saw a small snake engraved on the side of a copper faucet. He stretched out his right arm and held the Slytherin staff in his hand. There was a "ding" sound on the faucet.

The dragon's head emits a dazzling white light and begins to spin rapidly.

Then, the pool started to move. Moriarty watched as the pool slowly disappeared from sight, revealing a very thick water pipe that could accommodate a person.

Moriarty heard Marcus and the other two gasp, and he looked at the three of them: "Now you know why I chose this bathroom as the meeting place. This is the entrance to the secret room."

Marcus and the other three moved slowly, approached the hole at the edge of the water pipe, and peered inside.

"It's so dark, you can't see anything," Tonks covered her mouth and nose: "But to be honest, the smell is too strong."

"Are we going in?" Jericho blinked his eyes with a smile: "Go in and explore to find the treasure left by Salazar Slytherin!"

"If I had seen the wealth in Slytherin Castle, I wouldn't have said this. Salazar would never have left the treasure in Hogwarts." Marcus said a rare wise word.

But Tonks said: "Ravenclaw said that extraordinary wisdom is the greatest wealth of mankind. Maybe the treasure left by Salazar refers to this category? Knowledge, magic or something, or some bizarre secret ?”

"Stop guessing," Moriarty waved his hand and said seriously: "There is a basilisk in the secret room!"

Before Marcus and the three of them had time to speak, a stream of water suddenly burst out of a toilet, and a ghost flew out of the water.

"Ouch, it's terrible, it's terrible! What did I hear? Who would have thought that a little dark wizard leading two, uh, three -"

The ghost flew between Marcus and the three of them and stared at Tonks through his black-rimmed glasses: "There is also a little girl with white hair! The little black wizard leader is going to lead you to release the basilisk! Or should I feed you all? To the basilisk! Oh oh oh~ Myrtle heard it, Myrtle is going to tell everyone about it! Then people will like me!"

"Moaning Myrtle, a Ravenclaw girl who was killed by a basilisk fifty years ago." Moriarty introduced to Tonks and others.

Then he raised his head: "Myrtle, I hope you will abide by the agreement you made and do not interfere with my actions, otherwise I will kick you all out of this castle!"

"Oh -" Myrtle gasped and her voice became hoarse: "You know Peeves' agreement? You can still drive us out? No, you can't do this! Oh my God, Myrtle is going to be Kicked out, I know no one likes Moaning Myrtle, woo hoo..."

Jericho and Tonks widened their eyes innocently, "Close your ears and plug in the listening devices!" Moriarty tapped a little on the four people with his staff, and the world suddenly became clear.

Tonks looked at Moriarty: "Aren't you worried about her telling her story about us?"

"She wouldn't say it, and I wouldn't do what she said." Moriarty glanced at Myrtle, who was flying around above their heads, and the ghosts and Peeves reached an agreement.

After signing the agreement, Moriarty guessed that the agreement was related to him, and the ghosts would not cause any problems for him.

"Marcus, come down with me." Moriarty's voice rose a few degrees. Marcus shuddered and his face trembled, but he still raised his head and replied loudly: "No problem, sir!"

"What about me?" Tonks asked worriedly.

"You and Jericho stay here," Moriarty took out two packages from the system space and put them on the ground. "This is for you. Open it and take a look. From now on, you have three months to

Study this magic circle with me. I will build this magic circle in the secret room before June."

Tonks opened the package, took out the thick book inside, turned to the first page, and frowned.

Jericho gave priority to taking out precious materials, "This is... the mysterious vine, the luminous marrow, the blood demon skin, whose tooth is this? The fossil of a scarab? What is this? It looks like a mummy's butt!"

Moriarty nodded with satisfaction. Choosing Tonks and Jericho to study the space magic circle with him was a decision he made after careful consideration. The former was obedient and smart enough, while the latter had endless energy.

Originally, the most suitable person to build a magic circle was Lilith, but after Moriarty discovered that she also had her own actions, he gave up the idea of ​​inviting her.

As for Marcus…

Moriarty looked at Marcus, who was taking deep breaths, and motioned him to jump with his eyes.

"This is the test you gave me, isn't it? To deal with...the basilisk..." Marcus nodded fiercely, as if this would give him courage, "Okay, sir, I will do it.

can do it!"

With a loud roar, Marcus jumped into the water pipe hole!
