Chapter 43

"How. See," Harry whispered, "Snape has passed through Lowe without a hitch. "Seeing that ajar door, they seem more aware of what they are about to face.

"Now if any of you want to leave, I don't blame him. Harry said, "You can take the Cloak of Invisibility with you, I don't need it anymore." ”

"Now that we're here, I'm not going to back down. Ryan said. "Don't say stupid things. Ron said. "Let's go together. Hermione said. Harry pushed the door open.

With the creak of the door opening, a low bark immediately rang in their ears. The big dog couldn't see them, but all three of its noses twitched and sniffed frantically toward them. "What's that at its feet?" Hermione asked quietly.

"It looks like a harp," Ron said, "and it must have been left behind by Snape." "Obviously as soon as the music stops, it wakes up right away.

Harry was about to pull out the recorder Hagrid had given him when Ryan pulled something out of the pouch on his belt and let out a tinkling sound.

As soon as the voice sounded, the big dog's eyes began to droop. Slowly, the dog's barking stoppedβ€”it staggered a few times, fell to its knees, and then fell to the floor and fell into a deep sleep.

The sound was made by a music box, something Ryan used to practice his hands in order to study the Winterhouse Industrial Handbook.

"After this music box is wound up, it can be played for three and a half minutes. Ryan said to Harry. "Then we can take it easy and free up our hands to do something else. ”

"It's incredible. Hermione looked at the big dog that fell in front of her and said, "The book says that the three-headed dog can even compete with the dragon, and now it has been put down by a small music box, so what is the dragon afraid of? ”

"Well, now is not the time to look into these issues. The dog will wake up in a few moments. Let's take advantage of this opportunity to pass through here. ”

With that, Ryan walked over to the trapdoor and pulled it open.

Underneath the door was pitch black, with nowhere to step on, and no imaginary ladder.

Ryan used fluorescent flickering and looked down, but unfortunately still couldn't see anything. Fortunately, he who has read the original book knows what is underneath.

Ryan turned and crawled into the hole, then grabbed the rim with both hands and said to Harry, "I use the Levitation Charm best, so I'll go down first." If I don't have any problems, you can go to the professor and save me. ”

With that, he let go of his hands and fell to the bottom of the cave, the distance was not low, and Ryan felt that it was at least four or five stories high. Halfway through, Ryan cast a levitation spell on himself to slow down his fall, and finally he felt like he had fallen on top of something soft, which was supposed to be the Devil's Internet Cafe.

Before Harry could get down, Ryan used a potion that had a suppressive effect on magical plants (a little bit of it was taken off while helping Professor Sprout with his work). Smeared with a knife. After that, with the faint light of the entrance, he quickly cut off a chopstick-sized twig and put it into the crystal medicine bottle he carried with him, because of the effect of the potion, the devil net did not overreact.

After doing all this quickly, Ryan found that his ankle had become entangled in the devil's web. He immediately shouted to the top: "There is a big devil's net laid underneath, which can absorb the shock when you jump down, but you must prepare a spell that can set fire, otherwise it will be troublesome to get entangled." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Ryan saw three black dots fall almost at the same time, and he leaned to the side with all his might, hoping that he would not be hit. But there was still a dark shadow that smashed towards Ryan's side, and he quickly aimed at the black shadow and released the levitation charm. Fortunately, with the buffer of the spell, he only felt his arm drop slightly when he used the black shadow.

Then there were two crashing sounds, and everyone had landed safely.

At this moment, the voice of the black shadow that had just been put down came. "I'm sorry Ryan, you're okay. ”

This should be Hermione. After Ryan made a sound that he was fine, strings of blue flames began to release from Hermione's wand head. The vines flinched from the light and warmth of these flames, loosening their grip on them. The plants twisted and twitched, automatically loosening the tendrils that were wrapped around them

"Also, Ryan, you explored the way first, otherwise it would be quite a headache to suddenly encounter these things. Ron said to Ryan as he looked at the retreating vines. "But why did you catch Hermione?"

"Surely whoever is near me will pick up whom? Before Ryan could finish speaking, Harry pointed in one direction and said, "This way." ”

Ryan looked in the direction he was pointing, and saw that it was a stone hallway, the only way here.

In that case, there is nothing to choose from. The four of them walked out of the place where the devil's vine was entrenched and began to walk down the corridor. The hallway was quiet, and they heard droplets of water dripping down the walls in addition to their own footsteps.

Ryan even suspected that it might have reached the bottom of the lake, and as they got farther and farther away, a new voice appeared. There seemed to be a soft rustle and clanging sound at the other end of the hallway.

It felt like the sound of a group of gold coins flying around with wings, and they followed the sound as they continued to move forward. Finally come to a brightly lit room with a high vault-shaped ceiling. Countless small birds that were as brilliant as jewels flapped their wings and flew around the room. There is a heavy wooden door opposite the room. Exactly as described in some of the dungeon entrances in the adventure story.

"These birds aren't going to attack us, are they?" said Ron

"I'll give it a try. Harry stopped the group, and then ran towards the wooden door across the room with his hands over his head.

By the time Harry reached the wooden door, the birds didn't respond, and it seemed that they wouldn't attack the people below.

Seeing this, Ryan and the others also came out of the tunnel and walked through the room to the wooden door.

When they reached the wooden door, they tried to open it, but it was useless to push or pull. Hermione tried her lockpicking charm again, but it didn't work.

Ryan took out a slap-long, flattened steel rod from his waist bag, and pried at the crack of the door, the hinge, and the lock, but to no avail.

Eventually, he smashed the wooden door and the surrounding wall with the rod. Then he turned to Harry and said, "There should be protective magic on this door and the surrounding wall, otherwise it won't hit the wooden door panel and the wall, and there won't be a trace left." ”

Harry took a closer look at the birds above his head and said, "It looks like we're going to have to open this door as the level designer asked." ”
