Magic Journey from Hogwarts

Lockhart pursed his lips, looked at the meaningful eyes of everyone, and quickly made a choice between face and life.

If you lose face, you can earn more. At worst, you can change to another place, but if you lose your life, you will have nothing left.

"I'm sorry, I have to decline this time." Lockhart said seriously, "I don't want to stay here for a moment, and I have to go back now."

"But you are the professor of the Defense Against the Dark Arts class, and this is your responsibility." Professor McGonagall said angrily. Although she also felt that Lockhart could not help much, deserting soldiers in the team at this time is not a good thing.

"You can't say that, it's not my obligation." Lockhart disagreed, "It wasn't included in the work regulations when I accepted this position."

"Are you saying you're getting cold feet?" Harry asked in disbelief.

Lockhart smiled and shrugged without denying it.

"How can you run?" Hermione couldn't accept it, "You wrote so many amazing things about yourself in the book."

"Books can be deceiving." Lockhart grinned. "Those stories are true, but they change the protagonists from ugly old wizards, or disgusting old witches with hairy chins and poor taste in clothes." Into a glamorous Gilderoy Lockhart.

Only by making people think that I did those things can the sales of the book go up. "

"You, you, you are...a liar." Hermione's chest heaved in anger, she couldn't speak well, and her disappointment was beyond words.

The others were also dumbfounded, they could all see that Lockhart was a clown, but they didn't expect him to be worse than they thought, his character was extremely bad.

"It's disgusting." Aaron had expected it a long time ago, and it was quite normal for Lockhart to make such a show.

"Whatever you say, I'm plagiarism at best, and I haven't violated any laws!" Lockhart said, since the showdown has already happened, there's no need for him to pretend to be so tired.

Professor McGonagall directly threw a petrification spell at him, imprisoning him in place.

"Don't bother with this bastard, I'll ask the Aurors to investigate after Ginny is rescued."

Everyone calmed down, bypassed the densely packed snake sloughs and continued on in the rugged tunnel.

At the end of the tunnel, a solid wall stood in front of everyone. On the wall were two intertwined snakes. Their eyes were inlaid with shining emeralds, making them look like they were alive.

Abe jumped out of Aaron's arms, looked at the wall vigilantly, and slowly protruded sharp claws from his limbs.

Aaron took a deep breath, "The Basilisk is in there, two cocks ready.

In addition, once something happens, you must remember not to look into its eyes. If you can, it is best to close your eyes and fight. "

Ron and Hermione subconsciously hugged the cock in their hands, and they immediately let out a loud and clear cry, dispelling everyone's depression.

"Harry Potter." Snape looked at the wall and said meaningfully, "It's time for you Parseltongue."

Harry cleared his throat and walked to the wall, hissing in Parseltongue: Open.

The two snakes began to separate slowly, coiling up on the left and right sides of the wall.

The wall slowly opened from the center, but what caught everyone's eyes was not a secret room. The emeralds in the eyes of the two snakes emitted green light, forming a gray-white curtain wall to block the entrance.

"what is this?"

"Don't touch, Harry." Professor McGonagall carefully stretched out his fingers to touch, but was shocked back a few steps in the next moment.

Professor Flitwick took out his wand, and the white light hit the off-white curtain wall, forcibly opening a black crack in it.

But after a while the cracks healed, and powerful magic oozed from the walls, negating Flitwick's spell.

"Enchantment." Professor Flitwick exclaimed, "And it's not an ordinary enchantment. It is powered by two magic crystals and has been installed for at least a month."

"Can it be broken?" Ron asked anxiously, "My sister is still inside!"

"I'm sorry, Ron Weasley.

This enchantment looks like it was carefully prepared, even if we use brute force to break it together, it will take a certain amount of time. "

"how long it takes?"

"Say less than twelve hours." Professor Flitwick said with a troubled face, "This is the fastest, and the person who set up this enchantment is an absolute genius.

Unless he leaves some rules behind, the only way to break this is by brute force. "

After the voice fell, two lines of words really appeared on the gray and white curtain wall:

Aaron Gaius (this is the premise); [-].

"What?"

Aaron blinked blankly, and the others looked at him puzzled.

"What's the situation?" Aaron felt a big danger engraved on his forehead, as if being pointed at with a death curse.

"Obviously." Professor Snape said with a gloomy expression, "You have come into the sight of the heir of Slytherin."

"But I'm already low-key enough!" Aaron said with tears in his eyes, "I haven't had any outstanding performance in the past two semesters. How did he know me?"

After speaking, Aaron seemed to think of something, and turned to look at the three Gryffindors.

"Don't tell me you guys said it."

Hermione and Ron shook their heads immediately, but they were tight-lipped.

Harry weakly raised his right hand, and said shamefully, "Maybe I did it.

Tom Riddle brought me back to his memory, I told him that Hagrid was not the murderer, and then told him the clues you found.

He's interested in you, so just..."

When Aaron heard this, his brain went blank, and his heart was on the verge of collapse.

"Didn't I tell you not to tell anyone?

You promised me too, is that your promise? "

"Sorry." Harry said awkwardly, too guilty to look directly at Aaron.

At that time, he thought that Riddle's diary would not tell the secret, so he didn't take it seriously, but he didn't expect it to be so big.

"Hehe! Do you think the apology is over?" Aaron pointed at the curtain wall with a sneer, "Look clearly, my name is written on it!

I've worked so hard for so long, but I don't want to be targeted by the big boss behind the scenes. It's better for you to sell me straight away. "

"I... I really didn't mean to."

"You'd better not do it on purpose, or I will definitely strangle you." Aaron gritted his molars and pulled Harry's collar, "Do you know that I never thought of taking risks by myself, never.

I'm just a Slytherin who protects his life wisely, why would you do this to me?Where did I offend you? "

Harry shook his head blankly, wanting to say something, but swallowed the words again.

It seems that everything he says is wrong now. This is no longer a hindrance. It is directly dragging Aaron into the abyss. It's no wonder he is in a good mood.

Harry could only give Professor McGonagall a look of begging for help, hoping that she would say something nice and at least let Aaron let go of himself first.

"Hey!" Professor McGonagall said helplessly, "Time is running out, so let's think about how to rescue Ginny first!"

"I can't help it." Aaron sighed, "I'm the only one going now."

"No, I don't agree." Professor Snape sternly stopped, "No one knows what's inside, there may be other dangers besides the basilisk.

You don't have to take risks for Ginny Weasley, and we have no reason to let you, a student, take risks. "

"Hehe! Professor, I just said that I never thought of taking risks.

But thanks to the famous savior, I am forced to do nothing now, and the other party is coming for me. Aaron gradually calmed down, "There is only a thousand days to be a thief, how can there be a thousand days to guard against a thief?"

There is such a saying in our family's ancestral motto: If I don't kill him today, he will definitely find a way to kill me tomorrow.

Now that he has been missed, I can only kill him, otherwise I will not be able to sleep well in the future. "

"That... Gaius." Professor Sprout frowned, "You have a good idea, but your strength is too weak now, we can think of other ways."

"Time is running out."

Professor Sprout had nothing to say when he heard the words.

If they can break this barrier, it will not be so troublesome, but who can't break it!

"Then what does the second sentence represent?" Hermione frowned as she looked at the numbers on the curtain wall, "One, three, five, seven, these are all singular numbers, does it represent a year or a password? Or..."

"It's not that troublesome." Aaron rolled his eyes, "The four numbers add up to sixteen, which means that people under the age of 16 can pass through the curtain wall.

Riddle may already have the ability to get out of the diary, he is very confident, so confident that he can ignore any peers. "

"We can go in and help you." Harry said courageously. "We are all under 16 years old. Four of us may not be able to defeat Tom Riddle."

"No, I'm begging you, don't come to hold you back." Aaron showed great resistance, and he had a very clear understanding of the abilities of the three Gryffindors.

That means Hermione is barely capable, but this isn't an exam, and she can't help much.

As for Harry and Ron...it's really hard to say!

As long as one of these two people is more reliable, he can lie behind a few professors and win, so there is no need to take such a big risk.

"But it's my sister inside." Ron said unconvinced.

"Then stay outside for your sister's sake." Aaron said impatiently, "If Ginny is still alive, I will try my best to rescue her, and if she unfortunately dies, I will do my best efforts to bring her body out intact."

"Ginny must be alive." Ron said loudly, but he was also a little unsure in his heart. After all, he saw a lot of bones along the way.

"hope so!"

Aaron sighed and walked towards the curtain wall.

"Wait, Gaius." Professor McGonagall stopped him and said, "You forgot to bring the cock."

"It's useless, Riddle has already made sufficient preparations." Aaron said regretfully, "This enchantment is for living people, and cocks can't get through it."

Hearing this, Abe couldn't sit still. He was worried that his master would leave him to take risks alone, so he spread his wings and flew towards the barrier.

The sharp minions tore off sparks one after another on the curtain wall, but the damage to the enchantment was also limited, and it would always return to its original state in the next second.
