Chapter 57: Hogwarts a Thousand Years Ago
While Fawkes was pestering the basilisk, Evan ran quickly towards the statue, and Tom Riddle seemed to realize what he was going to do, and several spells flew past his body.
"Kill that Mudblood, don't let him come near the statue, he's on your right, you sniff hard, sniff him. Riddle screamed.
The basilisk brushed aside Fawkes and lunged at Evan again.
Evan turned his head and saw the basilisk's two large, blood-drenched eye sockets getting closer and closer to him.
Just when he thought he was going to be swallowed by the basilisk, Harry's figure suddenly appeared between him and the basilisk, and he gasped and threw his wand to the ground, the sword of Gryffindor in his hand, and his little pale face was full of determination.
The basilisk didn't see Harry, and Riddle wanted to warn him, but it was too fast for it to happen.
Harry stabbed the basilisk with castration, leaving it with a deep wound that hurt more than any previous spell had done.
The basilisk threw its head back and hissed loudly, writhing wildly, its body coiling in circles, snapping at the stone pillars, and the whole chamber shook with it.
Harry was knocked out of the way, crashing into the wall of the chamber.
The basilisk lunged at him, its forked tongue whizzing across his body.
Thankfully, at this point, Fawkes flew up again and stopped the basilisk from continuing its attack.
Evan didn't have time to pay attention to the fierce battle in the arena anymore, and he quickly climbed up the statue, dodging Tom Riddle's spell attack with difficulty.
The spells were so powerful that the stones flew around Evan and Ron's broken wand apparently drained Riddle of too much control, and while his magic shattered the Slytherin statue beyond recognition, none of it hit Evan either.
"Shit, shit!" Riddle tossed Ron's wand aside.
Evan saw him walk quickly over to where Harry had been standing and pick up Harry's wand.
Evan hurriedly sped up, he was only a little short of the diary, and another green spell light flew towards him, much thicker than the previous spell, and he couldn't dodge it! Evan gritted his teeth, jumped to his feet, grabbed the diary, and threw it at Harry with all his strength.
In the next second, a green light struck him.
"Aven!"
A piercing pain quickly spread throughout his body, and Aven heard Harry shouting his name from below, and he wanted to respond, but he didn't have any strength in his body, and he could feel the vitality quickly disappearing from his body.
His stunned expression fell straight down, landing right in Slytherin's open mouth.
It was a dark, bottomless cavern that devoured Aven mercilessly.
With the last bit of light, Evan saw the "pocket watch-shaped" object he had picked up fly out of his arms, and the hands on it were spinning counterclockwise.
I don't know how many times I turned, and when the last ray of light disappeared, Aivan's eyes went black.
I don't know how much time has passed, but Evan opened his eyes gently.
Could it be that this is what death feels like, but instead of becoming dark, the chamber of secrets is gradually becoming clearer.
No, this is not a secret room!
Although the room was exactly the same size as the Chamber of Secrets, there were no dreaded serpents carved into the surrounding pillars, nor statues of Slytherins.
On the contrary, it was a cluttered affair, like an enlarged version of Snape's office, surrounded by all sorts of herbs and magic potions, and jars filled with colorful liquids and taxidermy that were anything but pleasant.
"Who are you who dared to break into my room without permission?"
Evan saw a young man with black hair and a dark green retro style wizard's robe standing in front of him, his appearance was unusually handsome, and he looked like he had aristocratic blood. The young wizard looked Ewen up and down with a suspicious gaze, and at some point, a silver-white wand suddenly appeared in his hand.
"Hello, my name is Evan Mason and here it is"
Evan looked around in confusion, this is too strange, a second ago he was fighting Voldemort and Basilisk in the secret room, but now he is lying in this room, and in front of him stands a wizard he has never seen before.
Evan was sure that the other party was not a Hogwarts student or professor, no matter who it was, as long as he had this indescribable temperament, he would definitely not forget it.
"This used to be my father's castle called Hogwarts, but now it's a school of witchcraft and wizardry. "My name is Salazar Slytherin, and I'm one of the founders of this school. ā
Hearing his words, Evan coughed violently.
Salazar Slytherin!!
One of the four founders of Hogwarts, this young man can't be faulty, how could he be a figure more than a thousand years ago.
"This secret room belongs to my private domain, and no one should know about it. Salazar looked at Evan carefully, his eyes narrowing, "And you just said that your name is Evan Mason, I have never heard of a wizard family called Mason, you can't be a mudblood, right?"
Under the cold gaze of the other party, Evan nodded cautiously, and he saw the obvious disgust on Slytherin's face.
At this moment, Ai Wen felt a strong and dangerous aura from the other party.
He could feel that this young man's magic was very strong, and he was not much different from Dumbledore and Voldemort. Could it be true that what he said was true, Ewen looked around again, and the room was decorated in a somewhat rugged medieval style.
This can't really be Hogwarts a thousand years ago, and this unusually handsome young man can't really be Salazar Slytherin himself!
Feeling that his head was not enough, Evan suddenly thought of the "pocket watch-shaped" magic item, and he touched his chest, which was still there.
"Sir, in fact, I'm also a student at Hogwarts, and I'm from Gryffindor House. Before Slytherin used his wand to make himself disappear, Evan said quickly.
"Godric's student?!" Salazar looked at Evan coldly, "You're lying, I've never seen you!"
"IāI didn't lie to you, you didn't see me because I'm from Hogwarts a thousand years later, and I don't know what's going on, I may have been brought here by this thing. After saying it in one breath, Evan handed over the pocket watch in his arms.
"A time turner that hasn't been filed with the Senate, interesting!" Salazar looked at the pocket watch in his hand, "It's not a simple reversal of time, there are strange remnants of magic on it, it's very delicately designed, it looks a bit like Rowener's craft." ā
Seeing Slytherin's expression, Evan breathed a sigh of relief, he knew that the other party had finally believed in him for the time being. Otherwise, his fate must be miserable, after all, after a thousand years, Salazar Slytherin is almost infamous, who knows what he will do with himself.
"Stand up, I'm going to take you to Godric and Royna. Salazar had a bright light in his eyes and a sneer on his lips, "If it turns out that you are lying to me, I will make you regret doing so." ā
