Chapter 062: The Origin of the Scarlet Vine Ball

At this time, Dumbledore had just finished listening to Tina's words and had just opened his mouth to say something, when he heard Riddle shout in horror:

"No!" Riddle pounced on the little mermaid, but barely halfway through the flight, his figure turned into a light mist and disappeared into the water behind Tina.

"Pounds!" A loud explosion was heard in the water, and the water of the entire ditch was blown up to the sky, and the three people who were still in the water were also blown away, Dumbledore rushed over to catch Tina, who was screaming loudly, Douglas had no hand, so he had to open his mouth wide to catch Lockhart and Demeter, and then spit them to the ground, Snape immediately jumped into the ditch after avoiding the wind of the explosion, but Catherine was not in the ditch.

When Catherine opened her eyes again, she was surprised to find herself in front of the Scarlet Vine Ball again, only it had changed.

The location of that crack has become a big hole, and the black gas keeps pouring out from there, but it is only temporarily blocked by the silver film, and the rattan ball is quickly attacked from the inside by something, and many rattan are already broken, and the black gas keeps coming out from the broken place to hit the silver film, and if it goes on like this, the silver film will be broken by them sooner or later.

But Catherine didn't panic, she first carefully thought about the difference between the three encounters with the blood-colored vine ball, and finally found a solution at the moment when the silver membrane was pierced by the black gas.

She slammed into the rattan ball through the big hole, and where Catherine passed along the way, all the black qi was absorbed by her, and the crisis of the silver film was temporarily lifted.

And in the rattan ball, it was indeed the same figure that exuded a thick black aura as Catherine had seen it twice, but unlike those two, this one was not only powerful but also equally experienced.

Seeing Catherine enter, the figure suddenly became quiet, and quickly coalesced into Riddle's appearance, except that the robe on his body had turned pitch black, and his face had become very hideous.

"Catherine?" Riddle glared at her angrily, but the girl didn't respond at all, but directly gathered the black qi into a wand and took the lead in attacking, or rather sneak attacking, but Riddle immediately blocked it, and it seemed that similar things often happened.

After a few rounds of attacks, Catherine found herself decidedly less skilled at using magic to fight, and she decisively turned her wand into a sword, which was the way she was most familiar with fighting.

Although the sword can only be used in close combat, the space inside the rattan ball is not large, and Catherine takes a few strides to get close to Riddle, and with a stroke of the long sword, half of his body is slashed.

Riddle's face did not change, and using what little connection he had to the half of his body, he turned it into a snake and wrapped it around Catherine's feet.

Catherine ignored the black snake at her feet, and the long sword in her hand slashed continuously, slicing Riddle's body to pieces.

Seeing this, Riddle immediately let the black snake burrow into Catherine's body in an attempt to kill her, but the girl was one step ahead of him, she reversed the direction of the long sword, cut off the body that had been invaded by the black snake, and ordered the vine ball to attack.

Hundreds of rattan balls immediately sprang up at the same time, completely turning the other party into powder, and of course, Catherine's severed body was treated in the same way.

Catherine breathed a sigh of relief and regrouped her body, only that the newly formed body was no longer pure white as before, but had many black markings, like a cow.

Because she used a lot of magic early in the morning, and she had been in a state of high concentration just now, this small encounter directly consumed Catherine's remaining energy, and she just wanted to find a bed to sleep well.

But as soon as she poked her head out of the hole of the vine ball, Catherine noticed something strange outside, the white fog that had been everywhere had disappeared, and now the whole vine ball was full of green liquid, as if she was at the bottom of a lake.

Catherine felt that these green liquids seemed to be full of magic, and she reached out to absorb a little, and the fatigue on her body immediately weakened, and she immediately absorbed it frantically.

It was only when she felt that she could no longer absorb that Catherine opened her eyes, and she saw that her body had returned to white, only with a faint pale green glow.

"Yes, it's not my descendant, but it's a good fit to accept my inheritance." A familiar voice suddenly sounded.

"Salazar?" Catherine asked in surprise, and then saw the green liquid in front of her condense into his appearance, "Do you know where this is?" She hurriedly asked her doubts.

"This is your soul world, don't you know?" Salazar blinked his eyes.

"If this is really my soul world, then how did you get in? How did that man, Tom Riddle, end up here? Catherine asked, puzzled.

"You put him in, so to speak, as for me?" Salazar paused, "I was drawn in by him. ”

"The crown has something to do with him, but—" Catherine frowned, "why are there so many Voldemorts?" ”

"My hunch was right, he was really crazy!" "Even though I don't yet understand what happened to him, one thing I know for sure is that he split his soul." ”

"Split the soul!" Catherine exclaimed.

"Yes," Salazar nodded, "because in your soul world alone, I feel three soul fragments that belong to him. He stretched out his hand, and three small crystals glowing white flew out of the hole in the rattan ball and landed in his palm.

"Ahh Catherine immediately understood everything, "Voldemort used my body as a container for the fragments of his soul, as well as that journal and that crown!" ”

"I don't know what that diary is about, but that crown is Rowena's tiara, and it has the same forbidden spell on it as you, which is this 'vine ball'." Salazar said with a strange expression, "It's just that this 'vine ball' is not just a forbidden spell, it is also mixed with other spells, which makes it mutate, and this silver film on the outside appears." He reached out and patted the surface of the blood-colored vine ball.

"Maybe it's the 'magic of love'!" Catherine softened, "My mother saved my brother with her life from being killed by Voldemort's death curse. ”

"If you need your life, it should be the 'Sacrifice of Love,' which is the most defensive spell, but—" Salazar pondered, "This silver film not only confines these soul fragments to the 'vine balls' to prevent them from harming your soul, but also has the ability to attack, so I think it's more likely to be the other three 'love magics'." ”

"Are there many kinds of 'love magic'?" Catherine asked in surprise.

"There are four types: 'sacrifice', 'dedication', 'protection' and 'support'." Salazar counted his fingers and said, "Which one to use depends entirely on the character of the user, and it cannot be chosen, because a person will only know one 'magic of love' in his life, and he can only use the one he knows." ”

Catherine blinked, not understanding what Salazar was referring to, and she decided to put that aside for the time being, to solve another puzzle first.

"Harry is a parseltongue like me, but we are not related to you, does that mean that he has Voldemort's soul fragments in his body like me?" Catherine's tone was a little hurried.

"I haven't seen that boy, so I don't dare to make a conclusion, but I can sue you for the method of checking." Salazar opened his hand and conjured a water balloon to envelop Voldemort's soul fragment.

"If anything," Catherine took a deep breath and pressed her somewhat fluctuating mood, "do you know how to take out the soul shard?" ”

"If there's only one piece on him, there should be a way to get it out, but you-" Salazar shook his head helplessly as he looked at the three small white crystals wrapped in the water balloon, "there is almost no way. ”

"What's the solution?" Catherine was very calm, as if she hadn't heard the words behind, "What do you need me to do?" ”

"You just need to do me a favor!" Salazar said meaningfully, "Help me ......"

Snape eventually found Catherine beneath Salazar's statue, hovering in a glowing green magic circle, and Salazar standing beside her with a sad face.

"What's going on?" When Snape got closer, he realized that Catherine's right hand was a blur of flesh and blood, which was obviously the source of the explosion, but her school robe and the rest of her body were not damaged in the slightest.

"The crushing fracture of her right shoulder prevented the forbidden spell from fully working on her body, and the power that Riddle stole poured into her body in an instant, which caused the explosion." Salazar lowered his head and explained, "Thankfully, the forbidden spell was applied to her school robe, so it didn't cause any stricter consequences. ”

"Why did that guy's power pour into Catherine?" Snape frowned and asked, but Salazar didn't answer.

"I've stabilized her soul and magic, but her injuries need to be dealt with immediately, so you'd better take her to the medical wing right away." After saying that, Salazar disappeared directly.

Seeing that Salazar was no longer there, Snape did not hesitate any longer, and immediately summoned Douglas, and the millennial basilisk appeared and swallowed him and Catherine in one gulp. By the time Douglas opened his mouth again, Snape had seen the white sheets in the medical wing, and he immediately rushed out of the tunnel with Catherine in his arms.

"Severus? You-" Madam Pomfrey, who was sitting by the window and watching the situation outside, turned around as soon as she heard the movement behind her, and when she saw the man in Snape's arms, she exclaimed, "Merlin! How did Catherine's right hand become like this? ”

"Explosion!" Snape said briefly, "Help her stop the bleeding." He gently placed the girl on the hospital bed.

"Failed?" Madam Pomfrey asked, busily.

"No, it worked." A flash of red light flashed, and Dumbledore's voice suddenly rang out in the medical wing, he was carrying Demeter in one hand and Lockhart in the other, while his collar was being carried by Fawkes, "Catherine prevented his resurrection, it's just that what he stole doesn't seem to be able to return to their owners." As soon as his hand was released, Demeter and Lockhart fell to the floor.

"How can you treat a patient like this!" Madam Pomfrey shouted angrily, but was still busy healing Catherine's wounds.
