Mastering Thunder from Hogwarts

Anduin found that compared to the previously resurrected Voldemort's soul, the split soul in the ring was more difficult to 'play with'.

Because after the object is made into a Horcrux, it is equivalent to adding a layer of protection to the soul. At the same time, because it is only a part of the soul, there is no more specific consciousness to control it.

The internal memory fragments are obviously missing and appear very messy.

Fortunately, Anduin has enough patience and superb thinking exploration skills. In order to help the Longbottoms heal, he often experimented with other people's brains and souls. Now this skill comes in handy.

In the next few days, Anduin, while dealing with matters in Diagon Alley and Hogwarts, took time to explore this Horcrux bit by bit, and gradually gained a lot of useful information.

However, it seems that when making this Horcrux, Voldemort was already relatively proficient in actively splitting souls.

Voldemort only implanted memories from the past two years before making the Horcrux, but the amount of information in these two years was surprisingly large.

First of all, it is certain that this ring should be the second Horcrux made by Voldemort. It was made in August 1943, when the fifth-year Voldemort, Tom Riddle, split his soul by killing his biological father.

, and then made this Horcrux.

Two months ago, Voldemort had just made his first Horcrux, and Anduin could roughly tell that it was a simple-looking notebook.

But in comparison, what is even more surprising is what happened when this Horcrux was made!

Voldemort actually made the Horcrux by commanding a basilisk to kill Myrtle in the girls' bathroom on the second floor of Hogwarts Castle.

During this period, Voldemort even blamed the incident on Hagrid, who was only in third grade, causing him to be expelled from school and have his wand broken. Later, it was because of Dumbledore's pity that he got the position of key keeper.

Stay at Hogwarts.

"So it turns out that Hagrid was expelled for this reason? This honest guy was really unjust...and that unlucky Myrtle, it was an unreasonable disaster."

Although Anduin had learned some about Hagrid's past from his mouth, due to his relationship with Hagrid, he had never inquired into the details. He did not expect that Voldemort was also involved.

"And there is actually a basilisk in Hogwarts, and based on its size, it has survived for hundreds or even thousands of years. Didn't the professors at the school discover it? This is too outrageous, right?

And what the hell is that so-called secret room?"

Anduin smiled to himself. He realized that his understanding of Hogwarts was still too shallow. There was such a dangerous creature under this castle.

However, because the memories he could see were scattered and vague, Anduin did not figure out how to open the secret room and summon the basilisk.

But that doesn’t bother him!

After Anduin pondered for a moment, he immediately got up and returned to Hogwarts. He was not the kind of person who would be a mother-in-law. It was not his character not to dig into the details after discovering the secret.

As soon as he returned to Hogwarts, he rushed to the bathroom on the second floor of the main castle, and then looked up and down at the circular magic pool in the center.

Anduin was no stranger to this bathroom. Back then, he had tortured clues about the Lestrange family here from a group of young wizards.

In Voldemort's memory, the other party summoned the basilisk from this magical pool. However, the spell Voldemort used seemed to be Parseltongue, and Anduin himself not only did not know it, but it was also difficult to follow those fragmentary spells.

Memory fragments restore it.

But Anduin now had a simpler and cruder method. He approached the pool, then stretched out a hand and slowly pressed it against the wall.

Immediately afterwards, Anduin was seen completely submerged into the huge stone pillar wrapping the sink.

The 'Shuttle Spell' or 'Earth Walking Spell' has an unparalleled advantage in this kind of cross-terrain exploration. At least it saves Anduin from having to use brutal means to tear the bathroom into pieces.

After passing through the wall of the sink, Anduin quickly entered a thick, deep tunnel that led diagonally downwards to the ground.

Just in case, Anduin took out his flying cloak and put it on, then threw out a magic lamp that looked like a golden snitch and slowly went deep along the tunnel.

The stone tunnel is very long, turning one after another. The ground along the way is full of bones of small animals, and there is also a huge snake skin that has been shed by a basilisk.

Following this pipe, Anduin, who was floating in mid-air, continued to travel downwards for several minutes before Anduin finally reached the end.

It was a solid stone wall with two intertwined snakes carved on it. Their eyes were set with large, shining emeralds.

After discovering the wall, Anduin immediately prepared to repeat his old trick and use the shuttle spell to cross it, but when he cast the spell, he was blocked.

After Anduin inspected it, he found that the wall had been cast with a powerful protective magic, making it almost impossible to penetrate through clever means.

"Hmm... the protective magic here is quite simple and crude, and it seems to be connected to the magic source of Hogwarts." Anduin rubbed the wall and analyzed, "The only way to get through here is violence.

There are two ways to crack and get the corresponding password,"

"But direct violent destruction is equivalent to fighting against the thousands of years of magic power stored in Hogwarts. Even if it is really destroyed, I am afraid it will have an impact on the operation of the castle's magic circle."

"This road is impassable. If this is really broken, will Dumbledore have to fight with me? But if you want to use technical means to crack it, you have to find a way to get the blueprints of the magic circle here, or even the entire Hogg

Watts’ drawing of the magic circle will do, otherwise even I won’t be able to open it without damaging the magic circle.”

"The guy who built this secret room is really amazing. It actually makes me feel a little helpless. Could it be that Salazar Slytherin really created this place?"

"With superb craftsmanship, coupled with the main magic circle that can connect to Hogwarts, it seems that there is no other answer besides him."

After thinking for a while, Anduin concluded that this place was probably built by the ancestor of Slytherin, and if you want to get to the other side of the wall, you must have the corresponding breaking spell.

This is not to say that Anduin has no other ways to pass through here, but using other means will more or less damage the magic channels here.

And this place is connected to Hogwarts. Destroying this place also means destroying the school's protective circle.

At the same time, because Hogwarts has such a long history, it is almost in disrepair, and the magic pipes in the school have been constantly updated and transformed over the years, and can only be described as intricate.

Without the complete drawings, Anduin was really unsure of how to repair it after it was damaged. If he was not careful, Hogwarts would be in trouble.

Thinking of this, Anduin could only shake his head helplessly. It seemed that it was not the time to explore the secret room yet, and it seemed that it would be easier to find the correct way to open it than to enter through technical means.

At the beginning, Voldemort used Parseltongue to open the entrance to the bathroom and command the Basilisk to kill Myrtle, so logically speaking, the way to open this wall should also be related to Parseltongue.

"At this age, I have to learn another language. This is something I never expected."

Anduin smiled to himself, then took out several monitors from his body and deployed them around the stone wall, and then carefully retreated.

For this place, he can only monitor it now and wait until he finds a way to enter in the future.

In the days after he ended his exploration of the Chamber of Secrets, Anduin began rummaging through Hogwarts and his own library for information related to the Chamber of Secrets and Parseltongue.

However, as an extremely rare minority language, Parseltongue is a very rare ability that is usually hereditary. At the same time, almost all Parseltongues are descendants of Salazar Slytherin.

The data shows that the Gaunt family is the direct descendant of Slytherin that is now known to be traceable. It is no wonder that Voldemort was able to open the Chamber of Secrets.

But apart from these fragmentary records, Anduin could not find any other people or things related to Parseltongue. He even didn't know anyone in the world who knew this language.

Seeing that he couldn't find any clues from the information, Anduin had no choice but to find someone for help, and the first person he looked for was his headmaster Dumbledore.

"Parseltongue? Why are you suddenly interested in it?"

In the principal's office, Dumbledore pulled out the sugar bowl in front of him, picked up a pile of cockroaches with trembling legs, threw it into his mouth and chewed it happily, and then curiously asked Anduin.

"Uh... I'm just out of academic curiosity. It is said that Voldemort can speak Parseltongue. I want to know more about this enemy."

Anduin watched Dumbledore swallow the headless cockroach and felt awkward all over. He really couldn't understand why someone would make snacks into such disgusting shapes.

At the same time, he was not ready to explain Voldemort's Horcrux to Dumbledore. If possible, Anduin hoped to solve this problem quietly.

"Voldemort...it seems you don't think he died so easily." Dumbledore nodded clearly, thinking he understood Anduin's thoughts.

Then Dumbledore revealed a shocking secret to Anduin, "I actually have done some research on Parseltongue, but I can only understand Parseltongue, but I can't speak it."

"Oh?" Anduin was very surprised when he heard this, "Can you understand Parseltongue? Are you also of Slytherin blood?"

"That's not true." Dumbledore smiled and shook his head. "It's just that when I was young, my strong interest in various languages ​​drove me to learn more extracurricular knowledge. In fact, I can also speak mermaid language and goblins.

Language, but Parseltongue is indeed a very difficult ability to master. Even though I spent a lot of energy on it, I could only understand it."

Anduin nodded when he heard this. He had never realized that his old headmaster actually knew so many things. If I remember correctly, Dumbledore was also a master of spells, transfiguration and alchemy.

Compared with what he thought, Anduin suddenly felt that he still had a lot of room for improvement.

"Then which teacher did you learn Parseltongue from? Can you recommend him to me?" Anduin sighed and asked.

"I'm afraid I can't help you here. The person who taught me Parseltongue back then was a spell master from Egypt. It was said that he had the blood of the despicable Hypor. Unfortunately, he is no longer alive.

Already."

Dumbledore shook his head regretfully, "The old professor has been discriminated against because of Parseltongue all his life. The wizarding world generally believes that people who can speak Parseltongue are the embodiment of evil. But from my understanding, he

Although he has the blood of Hypor, he is indeed a man of high moral standards."

"That's really a pity."

Anduin sighed when he heard this. He didn't know whether it was the professor he regretted, or whether he had lost the opportunity to learn Parseltongue.

However, although there is currently no way to learn Parseltongue, Anduin is not particularly sad. Anyway, the secret room has always been there, and there are many opportunities to explore it.

After temporarily suppressing the matter of the Chamber of Secrets and Parseltongue, Anduin took out a diamond-shaped stone from his arms and showed it to Dumbledore, "Headmaster, do you know this thing?"

"Huh?" Dumbledore pushed up his half-moon glasses, and after carefully looking at the small stone held by Anduin's fingertips for a while, he couldn't help but widen his eyes, "Is this...could it be...death?"

The Holy Artifact Resurrection Stone?”

"That's right." Anduin praised Dumbledore's good vision, "I got this Resurrection Stone by chance. I thought you might be interested in it."

After saying that, Anduin gently pushed the Resurrection Stone in the direction of Dumbledore, and the diamond-shaped stone floated to the desk as if it was weightless.

"The Resurrection Stone..." Dumbledore looked at the stone in front of him, his eyes filled with excitement and emotion, and he couldn't help but murmured softly.

The old man took the Resurrection Stone with some anxiety, and then Anduin saw a pretty girl appearing not far away from him, looking at Dumbledore with a smile.

"Ariana..." Dumbledore murmured a name in a trembling voice, looking at her with a look of longing and pain.

After muttering to himself for a while, Dumbledore involuntarily stretched out his hand in the direction of Ariana, but although the girl beside him was close at hand, she seemed as far away as a world away.

"Principal, I have confirmed that this is not an entity, it is just a fantasy between substance and soul."

Although he didn't want to interrupt Dumbledore at this time, Anduin, who was afraid that the other party would get deeper into trouble, couldn't help but remind him.
