Chapter 45
“Helping friends is a matter of course.”
Tom immediately replied.
“So, how do I enter the secret room?”
“The entrance to the secret room is in the girls’ bathroom. You can enter with the order… By the way, you should be a snake-like voice?”
“As a genius Slytherin, of course I will.”
Ulysses wrote casually.
“Then the secret room will be open to you, noble heir. But I have a small request, I hope you can take me with you when you enter.”
Tom quickly wrote. He wanted Ulysses to enter the secret room early, and when the basilisk would subdue him, he would take the opportunity to sacrifice his life force in exchange for own rebirth.
“I will find you again when I need it.”
Ulysses wrote this sentence, then closed the diary and put it in his robe.
He imposed a non-marking stretch curse in his pocket.
Ulysses was silent for a while, smiled, and patted his hands lightly:
“Wonderful.”
…
After Colin Crevey was attacked, the school was unable to make any effective response. It could only instruct the students to travel in groups between classes and prohibit going around the castle at night.
It’s just that the person or monster that attacked seemed to have disappeared, and was not seen for a few days.
However, Dumbledore and many professors still did not dare to take it lightly. The activity of visiting Hogsmeade Village on certain Saturdays above the third grade was cancelled indefinitely until the attacker was found.
This greatly regretted many students. Although they are also afraid that the next target of the attack is themselves, the village of Hogsmeade is their source of happiness, and it is really unwilling to cancel it like this.
To put it bluntly, it is still fluke.
Professor Snape is in a bad mood recently. In a second-grade potions class, someone took advantage of Gregory Gore’s cauldron to explode and stole some precious potion materials from his office. .
This made him furious, and immediately focused his suspicion on Gryffindor, but he was unable to take any action because of the lack of evidence.
Because of this incident, the tension between Slytherin and Gryffindor went further, to the point where they were about to draw their wands when they almost met.
It seems to alleviate the self-defeating atmosphere in the castle, and to dispel the anger of the two academies by the way. Recently, there have been rumors about reopening the duel club.
As early as the first Defence Against the Dark Arts class in the third grade, Professor Lockhart revealed the news, but it was not until then that the notice was officially issued on the bulletin board.
Gerrard looked at the notice on the bulletin board and said with a little excitement:
“How about going to see together at eight tonight, Ulysses?”
Ulysses just thought that his nerves were a bit tight recently, and it would be nice to watch the chickens pecking each other occasionally. Suddenly his face changed slightly, so solemnly that it made Gerrard suspect that what he just said was not going to the duel club, but the intention. Murdered the principal of Hogwarts.
“What’s wrong?”
Gerrard asked carefully.
“It’s nothing. I’ll go first, and I’ll go in the evening if I have time.”
Ulysses hurriedly dropped a word, then turned and rushed into the castle.
The magic pattern he left in the secret room was triggered.
With as little attention as possible, Ulysses reached the secret passage that Pippi had told him as quickly as possible, and then quickly got in after confirming that there was no one around.
The familiar feeling of falling came, and after emerging from the lake, he took out his wand, set himself a phantom curse and a muffler curse, and went straight to the room in the secret room.
At the feet of Slytherin’s statue, a behemoth hung on the ground, seeming to be sleeping.
It was a giant green snake, its body was as thick as the trunk of an oak tree, and it glowed with the lustrous luster characteristic of a poisonous snake.
The air was filled with a strong smell of life and death. Such a large dose is enough to cause hundreds of people to enter a state of unconsciousness at the same time.
Ulysses only glanced at the basilisk and then ignored it. He held his breath and cast his gaze on the wall behind the statue.
The magic pattern on the wall was flickering, like a barrier, blocking the wall behind the magic pattern.
In front of the wall, standing a wizard who was covered in black robe, his wand moved forward slowly, facing the magic pattern with difficulty and determination, like a resolute drill.
Ulysses saw that the right hand he stretched out was sickly white, but the magic fluctuation was not weak at all. At this time, Ulysses was secretly shocked by the explosive momentum.
‘I caught you. ’
Ulysses thought to himself, and quietly raised his wand and pointed it at his back.
“Who?”
Just as Ulysses’ silent curse was ready and the wand was gradually shining, the black-robed wizard suddenly seemed to have noticed something, suddenly turned his head, and shouted angrily in the direction where Ulysses was.
Ulysses felt a little familiar inexplicably, but when he turned around, there was a sudden surprise in his heart, and the curse came out subconsciously.
The man wore a mask on his face, and he couldn’t get a glimpse of his true face. However, on the mask, there is an endless swirling pattern hovering, like a black hole, which wants to swallow people’s minds.
The black-robed wizard reacted very quickly and dodged sideways. The red spell blasted on the wall behind him, but there was no expected explosion.
The spell shot directly into the magic lines on the wall, like a chemical reaction. The magic lines glowed with a weird red light, circling around the entire striped road, and finally converged at one point, bursting out a more intense beam of light. , Blasted to the black robe wizard’s back.
Mageweave and Ulysses’ spell are the same in magic, and this is also one of Ulysses’s backhands on the wall.
The black-robed wizard was caught off guard, so he had no time to put a magical barrier behind him, and at the same time dodge as much as possible to the side.
Almost just for an instant, the magic barrier that was sent hastily was shattered, and the red light hit the black-robed wizard’s right waist.
The wizard’s black robe lit up strangely, and then quickly dimmed, becoming a truly unpretentious wizard robe.
Ulysses judged in an instant that this spell was not enough to kill the black-robed wizard, so when he resisted with all his strength, he turned a stone at his feet into a whirlpool mask at a very fast speed. Put it on the face, and then show the figure.
In a high-intensity duel, still thinking about maintaining the phantom spell is undoubtedly a naive idea.
The enemy’s identity is unknown, and there is no reason to expose own identity.
The black-robed wizard was furious at Ulysses’ sneak attack, ignoring his precious black robe, and with a wave of his wand, a thick black mist spread quickly.
“Shadow? No, it’s wrong. Why did someone come in again.”
After seeing the mask on Ulysses’ face, the black-robed wizard’s voice was suspicious, but he quickly overthrew his own guess.
Five dark chains stretched out abruptly from the black mist, like a cold and powerful palm with five fingers extending toward Ulysses with an overwhelming aura.
