Chapter 43: The Most Critical Disarming Charm

"You're dead, Harry Potter," Voldemort's voice said above him, "dead." Even Dumbledore's birds knew this www.biquge.info Do you see what it's doing, Potter? It's crying. ”

Harry blinked. Fawkes's head was clear and blurry. Large pearly tears rolled down its shiny feathers.

"I'm going to sit here and watch you die, Harry Potter. Don't worry, I have time. Harry felt drowsy. Everything around seems to be spinning.

"The famous Harry Potter is finished," Voldemort's voice came from far away, "alone in the Chamber of Secrets, abandoned by his friends. He challenged the Dark Lord with all his might, and was finally defeated by the Black Lord's men. Harry, you're going to meet your dear Muggle mother soon...... She cost you her own life and kept you alive for another twelve years...... But Voldemort finally killed you, and you already knew he would do it. ”

Harry thought to himself that if he was dying, it wouldn't be particularly bad. Even the pain gradually lessened......

But is this really death? Far from being dark, the chamber of secrets became clearer. Harry shook his head slightly, and he saw Fawkes, the big bird still resting his head on his arm. There was a pearly tear glistening around his wound - huh, strange, why was the wound gone?

"Get out of here, you broken bird," Voldemort's voice said suddenly, "get out of his way." Do you hear me, get out of here! ”

Harry looked up, and Riddle was pointing Harry's wand at Fawkes. With a loud bang, like a gunshot, Fawkes flew up like a whirlwind of gold and red.

"Phoenix's tears...... Riddle whispered, eyes fixed on Harry's arm, "of course...... It has a healing effect...... I forgot ......"

He stared at Harry's face. "But it doesn't matter. Actually, I think it's better that way. It's just you and me, Harry Potter...... You and I ......"

He raised his wand. But how could Xingzhe let him get his wish?

"Except for your weapons!" Xingzhe, who had long been "hidden" on the side, was waiting for this moment, and then a red light flashed directly with a wave of his wand, and Xingzhe's mantra was in Chinese, not at all like English, so Voldemort was killed by Harry's wand before he could react!

At that moment, Fawkes flapped his wings and circled over their heads again, and then something landed on Harry's kneesβ€”the diary.

"Destroy him! Harry! Xingzhe roared loudly, and in that moment of life and death, Harry didn't think or hesitate, as if he had always made up his mind to do so, he grabbed the basilisk fang on the ground beside him and stuck it straight into the center of the diary. With a terrible, long-lasting, piercing scream, streams of ink spurted out of the journal and ran down Harry's hands to the ground.

Voldemort, who had no time to stop anything from happening, twisted and struggled, his arms waving incessantly, his mouth screaming, and then ......

He disappeared. Everything fell silent, except for the sound of ink still ticking out of the diary. The basilisk's venom had burned a hole in the diary, and black smoke was still hissing.

Harry shuddered and stood up. He felt the world spinning, as if he had just traveled 108,000 miles with Floo powder.

"Well done! Harry! Xingzhe was really happy, he finally defeated Voldemort without danger, he ran to Harry's side at this time, he could see that Harry was very tired, but the two of them smiled at each other.

Slowly, Harry picked up his wand and sorting hat, and Xingzhe didn't pull the silver sword from the basilisk in the roof of his jaw.

"Harry, I think it's up to you to get it yourself, because it's Gryffindor's sword, and it's up to you to prove your courage..."

At that moment, a soft moan came from the other side of the chamber. Ginny began to move. As Harry hurried over, Ginny sat up. Her blank gaze fell first on the massive body of the basilisk, then on Harry in his blood-stained robes, on a boy covered in dirt with a sword, and finally on the diary in his hand. She shuddered, gasped, and tears flowed down her cheeks.

"Harry-oh, Harry--I was at breakfast, I-I wanted to tell you, but I didn't-I couldn't say it in Percy's presence. I did it, Harry-but I-I swear I-I didn't mean to, it was Ri-Riddle who forced me to do it, he-he controlled me. You- how did you kill that- that guy? Where is Riddle? I--I only remember him coming out of his diary-"

"It's all right now," Harry said, showing Ginny the big hole that had been pierced by fangs, "Riddle is finished." See! He and the basilisk are finished. Let's go, Ginny, let's get out of here-"

"I'm going to be fired!" As Harry helped her to her feet, Ginny wept and said, "I've been looking forward to going to Hogwarts since Be-Bill came, and now that I have to leave, what will Mom and Dad say?" ”

Fawkes circled at the entrance to the chamber, waiting for them. Harry urged Ginny to walk quickly, and they stepped over the motionless coiled corpse of the basilisk through the dark, empty, echoing room and back into the tunnel. Harry heard the two stone doors slam shut behind them.

They walked up the tunnel for a few minutes when Harry heard the sound of slowly moving rocks in the distance.

"Ron!" Harry shouted, sped up under his feet. "Ginny is fine! I found her! ”

He heard Ron let out a dull cheer. They turned another corner, and saw Ron's face peering eagerly at them through a large opening, which he had managed to dig out of the pile of falling rubble.

"Ginny!" Ron reached out of the gap and pulled Ginny over, "You're still alive!" I can't believe it! What's going on? ”

He tried to hug Ginny, but Ginny cried and wouldn't let him near him.
