The Day of the Draw at Hogwarts
Chapter 184 Is this snake hibernating?
"Open!"
The two intertwined snakes on the stone wall separated. The stone wall cracked in the middle, slid to both sides and disappeared. Victorique, who was possessed by Riddle, walked into the secret room.
After entering the secret room, he had an ominous premonition. When he looked carefully, he saw that there were some small cracks on the floor and brown stains in some corners. As a house that has been abandoned for thousands of years, it is normal to have these traces, but Riddle is still instinctively worried.
Of course Tom had tidied up the secret room. The basilisk was full of treasures, so it was naturally impossible for him to let the basilisk lie here and rot quietly. After completing the Scarborough Fair dungeon, he dismantled the basilisk. He kept the scales, skin, teeth, etc., and the snake meat and bones were not wasted. He collected them all. stand up.
These are treasures!
Basilisk, a magical animal, has a five-star classification level in the Ministry of Magic's M.O.M., and is classified as "animals known to kill wizards/impossible to tame or tame", so creating a basilisk has been considered illegal since the Middle Ages. However, This behavior is easy to hide, as the basilisk is hatched before the Ministry of Magic finds out. However, no one except a Parseltongue can communicate with basilisks, so they are dangerous to most dark wizards. There is a term in the literary and entertainment world called "fake at one glance", and the basilisk is called "dead at one glance", which makes the flesh and blood of the basilisk extremely rare.
Therefore, when Riddle walked in, there was nothing unusual about the secret room except that it was a little dilapidated. The giant snake lying inside had been moved away.
Soon, he discovered the problem: someone had cast a somewhat clumsy anti-theft spell here, and Riddle felt at ease.
"A small trick." He snorted coldly and came to the statue of Slytherin. He knew that at this time the "heir to the secret room" already knew that the secret room had been broken into, but so what? He was confident that he would bury the so-called descendant of the secret room here.
"Speak to me, Slytherin - the greatest of the Hogwarts Four."
The statue's mouth opened. Then, nothing happened.
Riddle:?
What about the basilisk? Where's my basilisk? Hibernating?
He shouted again, but nothing came out of the black stone statue's mouth.
He was a little confused. Faced with this situation, he didn't know what to do for a moment. After all, all the information and clues that Riddle found were about the location of the secret room and how to open it. None of them said what to do if the basilisk didn't show up.
…
Tom looked at the broken beads in his hand seriously. When this bead appears, it can only mean one thing: someone has entered the secret room!
He had previously placed an anti-theft spell in the secret room. As long as someone stepped in, the bead on his side would break to warn.
Seeing that everyone around him was looking at him, Tom forced a smile: "There was an unexpected situation in my office, so I'm sorry!" After saying that, he hurriedly bowed to Nick, and before Nick could reply, Tom said He left the underground classroom so neatly that Harry even wondered if this was Professor Lockhart's trick to get out of this embarrassing death anniversary party. Hermione followed him closely, taking three steps and then two steps. , followed him and quickly disappeared out of the door.
The three living people and hundreds of ghosts in the field all looked confused. Sir Patrick Debord, the captain of the Headless Hunters, was so distracted that he even forgot what he was going to say. Sir Debord was a little confused. He put his head back on his neck first, and Nick floated next to him.
"Welcome, Patrick," then, a cold blue spotlight shone on him, and he shouted to the guests around him: "Let us welcome the last group of distinguished guests today, the Headless Hunters, with applause and music. The players, and their captain - Sir Patrick Debord!"
The ghost audience present applauded warmly, the music sounded again, and everyone returned to the dance floor and started dancing to the accompaniment of the music. Sir Patrick Debord scratched his head: It seems to be a little different from what he planned? After taking a look at the team members behind him who were about to move, Jazz's hand became a little stronger and he knocked his head off again. Fortunately, he had experienced many battles and his body reacted very quickly. He immediately hugged his head and prevented it from falling to the ground.
Forget it, it doesn’t matter so much, let’s stick to the plan. At Sir Patrick DeBord's command, he and the other members of the Headless Hunters played a game of head hockey.
…
"The Chamber of Secrets has been reopened." Tom said quickly to Hermione who was chasing him. He took out a bottle of red liquid from the pocket of his robe as he hurried on.
"Then what should we do? Inform Professor Dumbledore?" Hermione asked hurriedly. She was a little panicked, and there was a trace of fear in her heart, but more of it was anticipation: the one lurking in Hogwarts The heir to the secret room is finally exposed!
"Notification is necessary, but before that I need to make some preparations." Tom wrote with red paint at the corner of a staircase that the portraits could not see:
Her flesh and blood opened the secret chamber,
The enemies of the Successor will be buried.
Tom analyzed Riddle's psychological process. Now Riddle should have successfully controlled a student and manipulated his or her body to open the secret room. The key is what does he want to do next? Attacking a Muggle-born wizard? Find Harry Potter and defeat him? Or - to eliminate the second "heir to the secret room" in his eyes?
Tom thinks the last one has the highest probability.
Riddle opened the Chamber of Secrets and killed Moaning Myrtle, but he was also targeted by Dumbledore. He had been closely monitoring Riddle, which made him afraid to open the Chamber of Secrets again, so he created a Horcrux: Riddle's diary, so that one day, he can guide a person along his footsteps and complete Salazar Slytherin's "noble cause".
Although it was created to cause trouble, attacking Muggle-born wizards was not Riddle's main goal, or this goal could be changed. When Riddle learns that in the future, the extremely powerful Dark Lord Voldemort will be defeated by an infant, he will be very curious and eager to see this legendary savior.
Of course, both of these things must be slowed down. Riddell's most urgent need is to kill the newly emerged "heir to the secret room". The conflict between the two heirs was so great that it was irreconcilable. Which is more important, finding Harry Potter or killing the Mudblood at school?
There is no second heir to the secret room, which is more important to Riddle.
Tom was certain that Riddle probably did not write any secret room declaration on the wall. Because as a sane guy, Riddle must have hoped to take away his competitor in a direct sneak attack. It would be terrible if he made a big fanfare and made everyone aware of it, making the mysterious heir become defensive.
Then Tom had to help Riddle fill in the declaration, otherwise he would really be unable to explain to Dumbledore how he knew someone had entered the Chamber of Secrets. After Tom hurriedly wrote these two lines of red letters, he took out a piece of paper and scrawled on it the short words "Secret room opened, Myrtle's bathroom on the second floor."
After the note was written, Tom took the wand and it turned into a butterfly, floating up and flying towards the auditorium in Hermione's amazed eyes.
"This spell is very practical." It can be seen that Hermione is very interested in this spell. It is really magical to convey information in this way!
"If you want to learn from me, I will teach you." After sending the message for help, Tom quickly ran towards the second floor. Tom felt that he had a high chance of hitting the right target today.
Riddle, here I come!
Riddle also realized after a brief period of confusion that his basilisk had either been taken away or disposed of. Today, I cannot use the power of the Snake King that Slytherin left for me. His eyes flickered for a while, then he picked up the wand, pointed it at himself, and sprayed a spell from the tip of the wand, which blended into the wizard's robes on his body.
When he finished casting the spell, the two figures ran into the secret room one after another.
Riddle quickly raised his wand: "Avada Kedavra!" Accompanying the spell was a dazzling green light and a chaotic, ethereal sound, as if there was an invisible giant flying through the air.
"The statue is flying!"
"Expelliarmus!"
Tom and Hermione had a tacit cooperation. Hermione summoned a statue by the wall to block Riddle's killing curse, while Tom used a disarming spell to knock the wand out of his hand.
Second-year students at Hogwarts will learn several spells that are more practical and valuable in combat, such as disarming spells and freezing spells. The spells learned in first-year students are almost not offensive, and they are all levitating spells, fire-making spells, and lock-picking spells. . The Flying Charm used by Hermione is a spell that only fourth graders are exposed to.
The wand rolled on the ground, rolled far away, and seemed to fly directly to the other side of the room.
Tom did not relax his vigilance just because Riddle was disarmed. His wand was still pointed at Riddle motionlessly. As long as he made any unusual movements, Tom would not mind shooting him to pieces.
"It's always been like this lately," Victorique, who was possessed by Riddle, showed a disgusted expression, and at the same time she was even more dissatisfied with her slow response and weak magic power. "Excellent cooperation, but Professor Lockhart, Today is just the beginning..."
Streams of black ink gushed out from Victorique's seven orifices, and at the same time, wisps of black gas emerged from her skin. In just a few seconds, the ink and black air completely dissipated, and Victorique's face became as pale as paper and as breathless as a gossamer.
She fell down softly, as if her bones had been ripped away.
Tom took a few steps forward to see how Victoria was doing.
"Don't touch her!" A loud shout came from behind. Tom looked back and saw Dumbledore striding over. He pulled out his wand and pointed at Victorique, and her wizard robe fell off and floated to the side.
"There is a very strong curse on the robe." Dumbledore explained, then hurried to Victoria's side, knelt down and carefully observed her complexion.
"The life force has almost been drained..." he said with a frown. At the same time, the wand tapped Victorique's arm, and a little white light merged into her body. A trace of red flashed across Victorique's white face, and then there was another Breathing weakly.
Dumbledore picked up Victorique, stretched out his left hand, and a burst of singing came from far to near. Phoenix Fox suddenly landed from the sky and landed on Dumbledore's shoulder, and its claws grabbed Dumbledore's shoulder. Fox turned his head and glared at Tom, then waved the long golden feathers on his tail.
Tom understood what it meant, and reached out to grab an incredibly hot feather on Fawkes' tail, while Hermione hugged Tom's waist from behind. As Tom placed his hands on the feathers, a strange, pleasant feeling of relief quickly passed through him.
An ordinary bird would definitely not be able to bear the weight of four people, but Fox was no ordinary bird. It looked effortless, and the golden feathers on its tail were also very strong, with no sign of falling off. Tom had some suspicions. The reason why wands with phoenix tail feathers as cores are rare is probably because phoenix tail feathers are rare, right?
A scene emerged in his mind. The old Fawkes was about to die. Dumbledore suddenly stretched out a hand and shouted: "Wait a minute!" Then he collected Fawkes' tail feathers one by one and held him in his arms. Dumbledore, wearing a bundle of tail feathers, said to Fawkes: "Please, you can Nirvana now."
If I tell this scene, Fox will definitely leave me in a secret room to rot, right? Tom's gut told him that this was what was going to happen. As if he had telepathy, Fox seemed to have guessed what Tom was thinking. He turned his head and pecked Tom, causing Tom's face to become distorted.
Fox flapped his wings suddenly and suddenly flew up into the sky.
Tom: Σ(っ°Д°;)っ
Because of Fox's sudden acceleration, Hermione hugged Tom a lot harder, and also scratched the itchy flesh under Tom's ribs, making him numb and itchy, and Tom almost laughed out loud.
The corridor outside the secret room was dark, but its broad bright red wings emitted a soft golden light, illuminating the dim environment. Fox flew very fast, and the cold air blew Tom's hair, but because the feathers on his hands were warm, it was not very uncomfortable.
This wonderful journey ended quickly. Just when Tom was about to burst into tears, Fox flew out of the pipe. The four of them landed on the bathroom floor, and the splash of water quickly wet their lips. Shoes and robe hem.
After they came out, the pool used as a cover at the entrance to the secret room automatically returned to its original form. This place is enchanted and the entrance will only be restored automatically after the person who entered comes out.
Dumbledore took a deep breath and walked out of the bathroom with Victoria in his arms.
